The atmosphere in the Gu family was a bit depressing. The great-grandchildren were very good at reading people's faces. They huddled in the corner like quails, completely losing their former liveliness.
The atmosphere at Gu Sannai's house was completely opposite to that at Gu Laotai's house. After Gu Sannai and Wang Xiaomai knew that Chen Qiangwei had completed the formalities and would start work next Monday, they were very happy for her. If Chen Qiangwei hadn't said that she had eaten in the city, Wang Xiaomai would have wanted to light a candle and kill a rabbit for her to celebrate.
After returning to her room, Chen Qiangwei rarely stopped reading books or doing exercises. She took out the student files she had made and carefully checked and sorted them out.
Although Chen Qiangwei is a bit lazy when it comes to housework, she is still very dedicated and fully incorporates the spirit of "loving what you do" into her work.
When Hope Primary School was first established, Chen Qiangwei created a file for each student to facilitate management and understand the students' situation and learning progress.
It includes the student's experience at school, moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor achievements, academic performance, health status, awards, personal basic information, etc., all at a glance.
Now she is ready to leave, and this file will be handed over to the next teacher.
Today, Gu Aiguo asked her if she had any recommendations for new teachers. Chen Qiangwei shook her head. Her relationship with Jia Zhenzhen and Xu Hongli was obvious to all, and she was not so saintly as to repay evil with kindness.
Then Chen Qiangwei continued to work late into the night. She had to make a study plan for Wang Xiaomai and let Wang Xiaomai study according to the study plan. She had four days of rest every month. On her days off, she would come back to answer Wang Xiaomai's questions and review with her.
Wang Xiaomai's eyes were filled with tears. "Sister Weiwei, I don't know how many lifetimes of blessings I must have accumulated to be able to meet you."
Sister Weiwei cares for her like an old mother, which is something many parents cannot do, not to mention her unscrupulous parents who abandoned her to her grandmother when she was young. The greatest favor they did for her in her life was to register her to go to the countryside without her consent.
Chen Qiangwei shuddered, crossed her hands and rubbed her arms, goose bumps all over the floor. "Stop being cheesy. No matter how many nice things you say, you still have to study and do the exercises. If I don't get a junior high school diploma in two years, hmph, how can I have a clear conscience?"
Wang Xiaomai feels so stressed looking at the densely packed study schedule!
The next morning, Gu Aiguo came with a woman about twenty-five or twenty-six years old whose clothes were covered with patches.
Chen Qiangwei knew her, no, to be exact, she knew her son, a little kid named Niu Niu, who often played with Maodan, Goudan and others.
Gu Meihua was a pitiful yet fortunate woman. Her parents had misjudged her by marrying her an alcoholic husband, who later drowned in a pond while drinking. Her mother-in-law and her uncles and sisters-in-law coveted her house and, accusing her of being a bad luck to her husband, drove her back to her parents' home.
Fortunately, she has a pair of parents who love her and three brothers. On the day she was sent back, her parents were not happy and went straight to Gu Aiguo to let him make the decision. Gu Meihua is Gu Aiguo's niece, and there is no reason for them to swallow their anger when their own child is bullied.
Besides, it was the matchmaker and the man who concealed the fact that Gu Meihua's husband was an alcoholic. To put it bluntly, this is marriage fraud.
Gu Aiguo waved his hand, and immediately more than thirty young men and a dozen strong women from the Gu family went to Gu Meihua's husband's house in a mighty manner.
He also fully implemented the strategy of using courtesy before force. If courtesy didn't work, he would beat up Gu Meihua's in-laws and make them submit. He then took back Gu Meihua's dowry, 50 yuan as compensation for being bullied, and the house of Gu Meihua and her husband.
From then on, Gu Meihua returned to live in Huaihua Brigade. As for the house at her husband's house, it remained empty. When Niu Niu grew up, it was up to him to decide whether to go back or stay in Huaihua Brigade.
I heard that Gu Meihua also graduated from junior high school and was very good at studying. She did not take the last elementary school teacher exam. Her reason was that the brigade allowed her to come back, gave her a shelter, and allowed her to earn work points in the brigade to support herself and her son. It was already very good, and she could not take advantage of the brigade anymore.
"This is Gu Meihua. Everyone knows that Teacher Chen will be leaving for a job in the city next week. Meihua will fill the vacant position as our primary school teacher. Everyone should hand over their work in the next few days. From now on, we must work together to make our primary school better and better."
Chen Qiangwei and the other four applauded and expressed their warm welcome to Gu Meihua.
Although everyone basically knew each other, they still introduced themselves to each other.
Gu Meihua felt a little embarrassed. She interacted with everyone one by one. When it was Chen Qiangwei's turn, she specially thanked Chen Qiangwei for taking care of her Niu Niu over the past year.
Because of Chen Qiangwei's departure, the teaching tasks of the teachers at Hope Primary School were also reallocated.
Gu Meihua had no teaching experience, so she taught Chinese to grades one, two, and three, and also taught art to all grades; Gu Linger taught math to grades one, two, and three, and also served as the principal; Liu Da taught math to grades four and five, and also taught labor classes to all grades; Huang Meixia taught Chinese to grades four and five, and also served as a music teacher; Wei Sijue taught Chinese and math to grade six, and also served as an art teacher to all grades.
Chen Qiangwei just had to hand over the work to Wei Sijue. She handed the student files she had prepared last night to Wei Sijue.
Wei Sijue looked at the student files with great enthusiasm. "This method is very good. Teacher Chen has put a lot of effort into it. No wonder the results of the transition from primary school to junior high school were so good last year."
This was the first time Chen Qiangwei had heard Wei Sijue speak at such length. "Nothing, it was just a sudden thought. Every teacher has their own set of teaching methods, and mine may not be suitable for all teachers."
Despite what Chen Qiangwei said, Wei Sijue still thought this method was really good. After obtaining Chen Qiangwei's consent, Wei Sijue announced this method, which received unanimous praise from several other teachers.
Gu Linger immediately decided that every class should create such a file in the future. This would not only make it easier for the school to manage students, but also help teachers to understand students in real time, adjust the class progress at any time, and educate students to the greatest extent possible.
The work handover went smoothly and was completed by Thursday. Looking at the innocent and tender faces under the podium and the reluctance in their eyes, Chen Qiangwei solemnly told them,
"You must study hard and never give up learning. Only by arming yourself with knowledge can you leave Huaihua Brigade, Yujiang County, Nanshi City, and reach further places!"
Tomorrow she will no longer be a teacher at Huaihua Brigade Hope Primary School. Chen Qiangwei suppressed her reluctance and walked out of the classroom.
After leaving school, Chen Qiangwei went to the brigade headquarters and asked Gu Aiguo for a day off. She would go to the state-owned hotel early the next morning to hand over her work to Sister Zhang.
She's coming to the state-owned hotel!
