"Principal, if I let the children stay for lunch to practice, I'm sure they'll get scolded at home. Besides, they've already had classes all morning..."
"Teacher Su! You don't know how important this competition is to our school."
The principal took a sip of water and interrupted her with a sigh.
Su Tangxue was speechless for a moment.
"Teacher Su, as long as we win this competition, we can represent the county and go to the city to compete. Once we get there, the higher-ups will notice our primary school. Not only will we have better facilities, but we can also build a cafeteria for a rural primary school, so that those who live far away can also eat hot meals in the school and rest at noon... Teacher Su, you understand my good intentions!"
The principal doesn't want the children to work hard, but he doesn't want the children now or in the future to suffer. Now that there is a great opportunity to show his talents, he doesn't want to give it up!
If the choir had not been established and Teacher Su's teaching level was not good enough, he would be extremely reluctant to sacrifice the children's rest time. But now he sees the potential of the choir and feels that he can move forward.
The principal doesn't want the children he teaches to be successful!
After hearing what the principal said, Su Tangxue nodded silently.
She understood.
The principal sighed helplessly.
"Teacher Su, since you understand, I'll leave the ideological work of communicating with the children's parents to Teacher Li and Teacher Ma. You just need to focus on teaching."
Ma Chunyan and Li Wenhui, who were watching quietly at the side, were caught off guard by the principal's words.
Shouldn't Su Tangxue be responsible for this matter?
How come it happened to them?
It's not like they haven't done ideological work with parents before, and each one is more difficult than the other.
Ma Chunyan protested, "Principal, it's not..."
The principal slammed the table in anger and interrupted, "That's it. It's settled. Teacher Li, Teacher Ma, you have experience. Teacher Su's most important job is to teach the children. There's nothing to discuss about this. If you're not happy with next semester, get out. There are plenty of people who will do it if you don't."
They rarely saw the principal angry, so they knew that he was serious.
He stood aside with his body huddled and stopped talking.
The principal had already done this, so Su Tangxue did not interrupt and only said that she would do her best for the school until the last moment.
The principal listened and looked at her expression for a long time, nodded affirmatively and let her leave.
With only the last week left, she discovered that the children in the choir did have some musical talent.
Indeed, after a few more rehearsals and some practice, she felt that getting into the top few would not be a problem.
But there is the problem of feeding the children.
Although the principal didn't say it explicitly, it is indeed difficult.
The school has a unified cooking system, and now there is one less cook...
Su Tangxue shook her head.
How can the children be in the mood for training if they can't eat enough?
After much thought, she decided to go see the principal again to solve the lunch problem.
Su Tangxue returned home from school in the afternoon and told her second brother about this matter.
Starting from next week, for a whole week, she won't come back for lunch.
Su Tangxue suggested that she would make breakfast from now on, and make extra and keep it so that her second brother could eat as soon as possible when he came back at noon.
When Lu Chuan heard this, he thought it was nothing. The main thing was that there had been some unrest in the village recently, so he asked her to be careful.
