Chapter 221 Urgent Telegram



"Student Song Ruan, are you...having any financial difficulties recently?" the department head asked tactfully.

After class at noon, the department head found her and took her to his office.

"If you have any financial difficulties, you can apply for a grant from the school. Or, can I apply to the higher-ups for your scholarship for this semester and have it sent to you in advance?"

The department head spoke earnestly, as if he was afraid that good students would go astray.

Song Ruan looked at the director's expression and combined it with the rumors he had heard recently, and immediately knew what was going on.

"Director, I don't have any financial problems."

Song Ruan thought about it and asked, "Director, have you heard any rumors about me?"

"Recently, some students have come to me to complain that you... um, they're worried that you might go astray and not focus on your studies."

"Don't worry, Director. I will never fall behind in my studies.

I opened a store outside the school gate, but it was not because of lack of money, but in response to policy.

Didn’t the organization issue a policy saying that it would vigorously carry out economic reforms and support private enterprises?

Although I am still a student, I also want to do my part to contribute to the economic prosperity of my motherland!

Moreover, I not only opened a store at the school gate, but also registered a food company and now I have obtained the license. "

Song Ruan said that he was doing business, and would continue to do business, and that his business would become bigger and bigger.

Indeed, people's mindset has not yet changed. They believe that farming is good and buying and selling is speculation and is shameful.

But this is Kyoto University, the highest institution of learning in the country, and now, sitting in the office are teachers, directors, and professors from the highest institution of learning.

Their influence is so great that it can affect the values ​​of all students.

Song Ruan didn't want that, and her teachers also thought that doing business was speculation and was shameful.

That dark period has passed, and now is the time when the motherland is about to be reborn. She hopes that her compatriots can fight together.

This is also the reason why she applied for the English major.

She hopes that one day she can go abroad as an exchange student and introduce advanced foreign equipment to revitalize the impoverished country.

"Director, although I can't be as noble as the Prime Minister and study for the rise of China, I hope that I can at least be a part of promoting economic prosperity."

"Clap, clap, clap - good, good, well said! This young comrade is interesting!" There was a burst of applause in the corner of the office.

Then, a teacher with a Mediterranean hairstyle stood up.

"President Zhou, why are you here?" the director asked in surprise.

Song Ruan was also surprised. It was noon and everyone had gone to eat. She thought there were no other teachers in the office.

Dean Zhou ignored the department head and instead looked at Song Ruan with a kind face.

"Young comrade, you are very good." He was more and more satisfied the more he looked at me. "Let me introduce myself first. I am a professor at the School of Economics and also the dean of the School of Economics. You can call me Dean Zhou. What you just said is very much to my liking!"

Dean Zhou looked at the head of the English department with disdain and snorted, "You might as well not study this crappy English major. There's no future for it, and the teachers there don't know anything!

A student actually took action to do business and start a company at this time.

This is truly a role model for the younger generation!

This is something that should be praised and taught to everyone, and you actually despise it?!"

"I don't mind it." The dean said a little aggrievedly, "It was a student who said something nonsense in front of me. What the student said was different..."

"That's because you can't judge."

After Dean Zhou finished lecturing the department head, he turned to Song Ruan with a kind look on his face.

"Little comrade, come to the School of Economics and become my student. You are a good candidate, and I will definitely guide you personally!"

"Hey, hey, hey, no, Dean Zhou, why are you starting to snatch students? These are students from our college..." The department head realized that something was wrong and spoke up quickly.

"What can your academy teach? Such a good seedling cannot be left in your hands."

Dean Zhou criticized people mercilessly.

"The higher-ups have issued a document calling for economic reform and supporting private enterprises, but you, as a director, are still looking at the world and students with old-fashioned ideas."

"It's just not possible. Song Ruan is a student of our college..." Director Zhou stiffened his neck and spoke weakly.

Song Ruan wanted to express his opinion but couldn't get a word in, and finally waited for a chance to speak.

"Dean Zhou, thank you for your kindness, but I don't want to change my major yet. Besides, I'm not as good as you say. It was my second brother who asked me to register the company."

"Humility is not something that should be encouraged. Every day I ask my teachers and students to register companies and start private enterprises, but why don't they do it?"

Dean Zhou became more and more disgusted as he spoke, and after he finished speaking, he asked Song Ruan again.

"You don't believe in my ability?"

"Of course not." Song Ruan felt a little embarrassed.

"Then why don't you agree? There are many students who want to be my students, and many of them I don't like. Are you afraid that you will become bald if you study with me?"

Dean Zhou touched his bald spot, feeling somewhat distressed.

"..." Song Ruan quickly shook her head, "I chose English as my major for my own reasons, and after I finish this semester's classes, I will take a year off."

"Why?" the two teachers asked in unison.

The dean quickly asked, "Student Song Ruan, the teacher was just worried about your financial situation. I didn't mean anything else. The teacher supports you in doing business. Please don't drop out of school for this reason."

Under the condemning gaze of Dean Zhou next to him, the department head felt like he was the executioner destroying the outstanding flowers of the motherland.

"No, Director. I've been pregnant for more than four months, so I want to take care of my family after finishing this semester's classes." Song Ruan explained.

"I see. Then we have to balance both."

There are all kinds of people who passed the college entrance examination this year. Some are very old, some are married and are getting divorced, some have their partners come with their families, and so on.

He has seen too many situations, and Song Ruan's pregnancy is indeed very common.

"Then come over and fill out a form and I'll give you the approval." The department head didn't make things difficult for her.

Because Song Ruan was not poached, he even glanced at Dean Zhou next to him with a slightly smug expression.

Dean Zhou rolled his eyes at him and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Song Ruan thought for a moment and continued, "By the way, Director. I don't know who said something in front of you that made you misunderstand me, but the rumors in the school, I think it was spread by classmate Tao Sanjin. He was retaliating against me. I implore the Director to check it out and not let this evil trend prevail."

"Oh? What's the matter with this student Tao Sanjin?" The director frowned. He seemed to have some impression of this person.

"He is the male classmate who harassed Liu Guilan last time."

"I remember that he seemed to have been beaten badly last time."

"...Cough." Song Ruan coughed while pounding his fist and continued.

"Yes, he was punished for harassing someone last time, so he threatened to retaliate in my shop last time. Moreover, he also bullies other female classmates in private. I hope the dean will investigate this person. If he really bullies female classmates, he will give the bullied female classmates a fair fight."

In fact, Song Ruan also heard about Tao Sanjin bullying female classmates from hearsay.

But since Tao Sanjin fabricated rumors to slander her, she must of course retaliate by slandering him back.

But what Song Ruan didn't expect was that the teacher actually found out something based on what she said, which was that Tao Sanjin had secretly got a female classmate pregnant, but that female classmate was married. After the matter was investigated, the school expelled Tao Sanjin.

But that’s all in the past.

The next day, I heard that the dean of the School of Economics held a special meeting to praise Song Ruan. He also used her as an example to encourage students of the School of Economics to learn from her.

In a short time, Song Ruan became famous in the School of Economics.

Her braised pork shop also became popular.

Some came to see her, some to observe, and some to join in the fun. In any case, as soon as the get out of class was over, a lot of people came to the braised pork shop to watch.

Many onlookers were attracted by the unique aroma of the braised food and couldn't help but buy some to try. Once they tasted it, they kept it in mind and became loyal customers.

As a result, a hundred kilograms of braised pork were sold out before noon and could not be sold out until the evening.

"Boss, should we buy another 100 kilograms of ingredients to make stewed pork? I think we can definitely sell out even if we add another 100 kilograms."

After closing the stall in the evening, Song Ruan and the others ate together in the shop, and Li Dayong asked this question.

He now finishes selling the braised pork at noon, so even if he has to prepare dinner for everyone in the afternoon, he still has a lot of free time.

"No need, let's start with the amount of 100 kilograms." After careful consideration, Song Ruan decided to maintain the original amount.

When she first started selling red date cakes in the town, she discovered that the purchasing volume in one place was fixed. If she expanded the volume, she would be able to sell them at first, but there would definitely be surplus in the long run.

What's more, many people who come here because of its reputation are here to watch the fun.

Therefore, it is better to set a fixed amount every day, so that those who cannot buy it will miss this snack more.

Li Dayong trusts Song Ruan's decision very much.

Only a fool would not believe that if you follow the boss, you will have a place to live, food to eat and money to earn.

Instead, he was afraid that he would be fired by his boss Song Ruan because he was too idle.

"There are many people buying braised pork now. After selling all the braised pork at noon, I have nothing to do after cleaning up the things. So, boss, please give me some work to do in the afternoon."

"Don't worry, wait until the cabbage is grown, and then you can use the afternoon to make kimchi.

You have more time in the afternoon now so you can spend more time with your child. If Guilan doesn’t have classes in the afternoon and can take care of the child, you can also go to the School of Economics to sit in on the teacher’s lectures.”

"I have a low level of education and don't know many words, so how can I understand?" Li Dayong said a little unconfidently.

"You don't have to listen to those obscure contents, just listen to some small stories about business. By the way, did you read the book I gave you at night?"

Li Dayong nodded quickly, "I've read it. I've read it. If there are some words I don't understand, I'll ask Guilan."

"That's good. You have time anyway so you can learn from many aspects."

"I will! I will definitely try my best!" Li Dayong now has complete and blind trust in Song Ruan.

After some communication, Li Dayong felt much more at ease, and after dinner he happily went to clean the table and wash the dishes.

The children were also playing in the shop. The two children were now much more lively than when they first arrived.

Liu Guilan looked at the scene in front of her gently and walked in front of Song Ruan.

"Life is so good now! Back then, when we were in the village, we worked all day long. When the college entrance examination was resumed, we still worked before studying for two months.

Dayong had endless work to do, so it was impossible for him to read books at that time, not like now."

Liu Guilan smiled contentedly: "Song Ruan, you are truly a benefactor to my family."

Song Ruan waved her hand, "Don't be sentimental, let's help each other. If it weren't for Brother Li, my braised pork shop wouldn't even be open yet."

Song Ruan does need help, especially since she is pregnant now, so a reliable and capable person is also very important to her.

This is also the reason why she asked Li Dayong to persist in studying.

According to the original plan, after registering the company, she should have looked for orders, recruited people, and produced snacks in large quantities, just like she did in the town.

However, due to health reasons, these plans have to be postponed, but they will still be carried out later.

Thinking of this, Song Ruan told Liu Guilan about his future plans so that she would have some idea in mind.

"During this period, Brother Li has been hardworking and has kept a good account, so I will continue to hire him to work. You have to teach him well."

"Really?!" Liu Guilan's eyes lit up, "Song Ruan, how can you be so smart? Your brain is so good! You've been so good to my family, I don't know how to thank you!"

Song Ruan smiled at her and said, "Since you want to thank me so much, please ask for half a day off tomorrow morning."

"What's the matter? Why do you need to take a leave?" The gratitude on Liu Guilan's face immediately turned into worry, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, it's time to go for a physical check-up." Song Ruan comforted.

"I'm glad you're okay. I was so scared." Liu Guilan patted her chest. "Then I'll come to see you tomorrow morning. I'll go with you."

"No, I'm only four months pregnant, and I'm not pregnant. If I really need you, I won't be polite."

Seeing that she insisted, Liu Guilan had no choice but to give up, "Then you should pay more attention."

Song Ruan agreed with a smile.

In fact, it was not yet the time for the check-up as the doctor had said, but she had been feeling anxious these past two days so she wanted to get a check-up.

the next day.

After getting up, washing up, Song Ruan went straight to the hospital.

The female doctor who examined Song Ruan was the same one who discovered that she was pregnant. She continued to see this doctor for subsequent prenatal checkups.

"It's incredible. Even though your health is so poor, the two little ones in your belly are actually growing well."

The female doctor pointed to the data on the test report and ultrasound report and showed them to Song Ruan.

The hospital where she is now is equipped with an ultrasound machine, which uses the most advanced rapid imaging technology.

However, Song Ruan didn’t quite understand it. There was just a black and white picture on the list with a few lines on it. She couldn’t even tell that there were two fetuses in it.

However, as long as the doctor can understand it, it's fine.

"Thank you, doctor. I feel relieved when you say that."

Song Ruan looked at her slightly bulging belly and touched it with reassurance.

These past few days, she not only felt anxious, but her right eye also kept twitching when she woke up in the morning. She was a little worried that there might be something wrong.

Now that she heard everything was alright, she felt relieved.

The female doctor routinely advised: "You should definitely relax, but as I said, you should pay more attention to rest and eat more nutritious food."

"Okay, thank you." After thanking him, Song Ruan packed up her things and walked out of the hospital.

It was not yet ten o'clock. Song Ruan bought breakfast at the hospital entrance and took the bus back to school.

It was still early, so she planned to go back to class.

The hospital is close to the school and can be reached in a few minutes.

It was break time when Song Ruan returned to school. As soon as she walked into the classroom, Zhao Meili and Liu Guilan saw her and ran towards her.

"Song Ruan, you're back. Someone sent you an urgent telegram at school. Go check it out to see if there's something urgent."

Nowadays, telegrams are usually sent only when there is an emergency, let alone an expedited telegram.

Song Ruan also knew this truth, so she asked quickly.

"Where's the telegram?"

"In the office. The counselor told me when I went to ask for leave for you this morning."

After knowing the place, Song Ruan quickly quickened his pace and went to the office.

After receiving the telegram, Song Ruan immediately opened the envelope and took out the telegram form inside.

The telegram was sent from Xiangdong and contained only four words.

"Yang Bin was murdered."
