"Hello, Principal!" Xie and Gao Zhi said in unison.

The headmaster put down the book in his hand and looked at the mother and daughter. He was startled at first, then he quickly asked them to sit down, "Come and sit! Don't be shy."

The headmaster looked at Xie deliberately for a few times.

Mainly I want to see what Gao Tairan’s original wife looks like?

This is really unexpected.

Mrs. Xie looked very noble, with round and smooth cheeks, and she looked like the wife of a wealthy family. She also had a gentle and scholarly air about her.

It is hard for a rural woman like Xie to have a scholarly air.

But it is there!

The headmaster was sure that he was not mistaken.

Moreover, Xie gave him a somewhat familiar feeling.

I just can't remember it at the moment.

But, think about it, it's unlikely.

He has never been to Lao Zhuang Village, so he probably has never seen Xie. Besides, there are people in the world who look similar.

The attendant brought tea.

There was also a tray of snacks and sweets.

The headmaster grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to Gao Zhi. "Little girl, what's your name?"

Gao Zhi smiled sweetly and replied, "Headmaster, my name is Gao Zhi. It was the name Gao Miao gave me."

"Gao Miao?"

"Yes! Gao Miao."

The headmaster asked curiously, "Little girl, why don't you call me brother but Gao Miao?"

Gao Zhi is a smart kid. "I was picked up by Gao Miao and brought home. I think of him as my elder brother, but I don't like to call him brother.

Gao Miao and I are used to it.

If I call him brother, he will not be used to it.

It's just a title. Just because I don't call him brother doesn't mean I don't respect him or love him.

Gao Miao said, "It's OK as long as we get along with each other comfortably and happily."

The headmaster was amused by Gao Zhi.

This little girl has a lot of crooked ideas.

But if you think about it carefully, this makes sense.

It's just a name, just like it's just a shell. What can attract people for a long time is still the inner qualities.

Gao Zhi started chatting with the headmaster, which saved Xie from some embarrassment.

Otherwise, Xie would be a little restless and wouldn't know what to do with her hands and feet.

Now she just had to listen with a smile on her face.

soon!

Gao Miao is here!

Gao Zhi jumped off the stool and ran towards Gao Miao.

"Gao Miao!"

Gao Miao bent down and picked her up.

Gao Zhi immediately peeled a lollipop and deftly stuffed it into Gao Miao's mouth.

Gao Miao also naturally opened his mouth and held it.

The headmaster was stunned by the natural interaction between the two.

Especially when seeing Gao Miao holding a lollipop, his cheeks bulging and a warm smile on his face.

At this time, Gao Miao was in line with his age.

This is different from usual.

Gao Miao usually acts like an adult.

Gao Miao met the headmaster's gaze, but he had candy in his mouth and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

He put Gao Zhi down, and with a lollipop in his hand, he was unable to salute the headmaster.

He smiled awkwardly, "Shanzhang."

The headmaster waved his hand and looked at him with a smile, "You don't have to be so restrained in private. Your mother is here and she brought you a lot of food."

Gao Miao: "Mom."

Xie smiled and nodded, her eyes full of pride, "Xiao Miao, I invited the teacher to my home today to announce the good news, so I prepared braised pork and fried tofu at home.

Jiaojiao also used her own pocket money to buy you a lot of seeds, peanuts and candies.

Jiaojiao asked you to treat your classmates to a meal.

The braised pork and fried tofu are outside. Where are you going to eat lunch?

We'll carry it together.

I'll just add two more dishes for you."

Xie knew that in addition to the principal, there were three other teachers in the academy. When she was at home, she had already divided the four parts.

I have asked someone to deliver them to each teacher, and the headmaster's is on the table.

Gao Miao looked at the headmaster.

The headmaster nodded and said, "Go ahead! Let's add two more dishes for everyone today. They will definitely be very happy."

Gao Miao: "Well, I'll notify everyone right away and ask someone to come over and raise it together."

Gao Miao ran away after saying this.

Xie looked at the headmaster and thanked him sincerely: "Headmaster, thank you for taking care of Gao Miao for so many years.

I am a woman, I don't have much knowledge, I can't speak well. If there is anything I did not do well, or if I said something wrong, please forgive me.

We will go back later, mother and daughter, so as not to disturb the teachers and children's lunch break."

The headmaster nodded slightly.

"Okay! Then I won't see you off."

“No need to send me off!”

"Principal, goodbye!" Gao Zhi bowed and said goodbye respectfully.

Not to mention, the little guy's movements are still very standard, and his expression is also on point.

The headmaster was quite surprised.

This little girl is really surprising.

Xie took Gao Zhi away and went to the cafeteria with Gao Miao and his classmates.

The children were delighted when they saw the large buckets of braised meat and fried tofu.

They lined up one by one to receive it.

Looking at the children with their mouths full of grease, Mrs. Xie smiled with satisfaction.

Wait until a few buckets are empty.

Gao Miao and Gao Yunting found a few people to help carry the things to the ox cart.

"Brother Yunting, this is a reward for you. You and Gao Miao are both great. Next time you come home, I'll ask mother to make braised pork for you.

Recently, we have added some delicious food to our home, you can enjoy them when you return.”

Gao Yunting followed Gao Zhi happily, his eyes narrowed into slits from laughing.

He held the lollipop that Gao Zhi gave him in his arms like a treasure, and was reluctant to eat it immediately.

"Jiaojiao, I didn't expect you and Auntie to come today."

"Come over and get some more food for you. We want to celebrate together, and you can't go home, so we'll bring the food over.

Brother Yunting, keep up the good work!

I'm waiting to call you and Mr. Gao Miao."

Gao Yunting nodded repeatedly, and promised, "I will work hard!"

Gao Miao pulled Gao Yunting aside and took Gao Yunting's previous position.

He looked down at Gao Zhi, "How is the old man doing?"

"Okay, okay! I'm here! Not only is he full of life, he also has a good appetite and enjoys everything he eats.

Oh, right! My old man and I are planning to open a shop together with Master Yan.

I can’t finish talking about this in one go, I’ll tell you in detail when you get home.”

Gao Zhi remembered the matter of opening a shop and quickly told Gao Miao about it to let him know what was going on first.

On the side, Gao Yunting became anxious when he heard it.

"You are going to open a shop in the county, so you will move to the county to live in the future?"

If they don’t live in the same village in the future, will he no longer be able to see Jiaojiao?

“No! We still live in the village, we just cooperate with Master Yan, we don’t have to take care of it.

My mother and I can’t run the shop either.”

Only then did Gao Yunting secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Gao Miao tied the bucket, then carried Gao Zhi to the ox cart and rubbed her head.

"Go back!"

"good!"

Gao Miao: "Mom, drive slowly on the road."

"Got it." Xie drove away in the ox cart.

…

"Mom, why are there so many people at the gate of our yard? They look unfamiliar to me and don't seem to be from our village." When Gao Zhi was almost home, he looked at the gate of his yard in confusion.
