Time passed quickly and it was March. Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing went to the town to buy a lot of stationery for the three little ones and also prepared a small schoolbag for each of them.
Children show everything on their faces. Every day before going to bed, they will walk around the house twice with their small schoolbags on their backs, and they are full of anticipation for going to school.
As the school opening day draws closer, Song Zhi feels a little strange. Logically, Song Ruanruan should have taken some action, so why is she so patient this time?
Just as she was thinking about it, she looked up and saw that there was indeed an uninvited guest outside the yard.
"Zhuang Haosi?"
Looking at the person standing outside the courtyard gate and peeking inside, Song Zhi walked out and opened the door directly.
"Song Zhiqing." Zhuang Haosi, as usual, politely greeted her before asking, "Is Rong Zhiqing home?"
Song Zhi looked at him with amusement, and already knew the purpose of his visit.
Before she could say anything, Rong Zhengqing had already walked out of the house.
"Zhengqing."
When Zhuang Haosi saw her, he called out in surprise.
"You call me so affectionately, aren't you afraid that Song Ruanruan will misunderstand?" Song Zhi said deliberately.
Zhuang Haosi's face suddenly froze, and he could hardly maintain the smile on his face, but in front of Rong Zhengqing, he still quickly explained.
"There's nothing wrong between me and Song Ruanruan. I just treat her as my sister, so I take care of her more."
Song Zhi raised his eyebrows and made a sarcastic remark.
"There aren't many brothers like Zhuang Zhiqing who takes care of his sister day and night without taking off his clothes."
Rong Zhengqing's face darkened slightly, and his hands hanging by his side were clenched slightly, but his expression remained calm.
"What do you want to see me about?" she asked calmly.
Zhuang Haosi was feeling humiliated by Song Zhi's teasing, but upon hearing Rong Zhengqing's words, he quickly said, "I do have a small matter I'd like to ask you for help with. Should we go talk to the side?"
Rong Zhengqing was silent for a moment, but still nodded.
The two walked outside together.
Song Zhi just stood there, watching the two people gradually walk away. She curled her lips. It was not appropriate for her to interfere too much in other people's affairs. She wondered if Rong Zhengqing could sober up this time.
"What's up?"
When he arrived outside the courtyard, Rong Zhengqing stopped, looked back at the man following closely behind him, and asked calmly.
After not seeing him for a long time, he was the same as usual, always looking gentle and refined. Today he was still wearing the Zhongshan suit she had given him before, which made him look even more gentle and elegant.
"I came here to ask you, how can one become a teacher in an elementary school?"
Zhuang Haosi pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment before speaking out what he wanted to say.
It was Rong Zhengqing who got him into the primary school as a Chinese teacher. Zhuang Haosi had a good plan. Since Rong Zhengqing could let him be a teacher, he could naturally get another person in.
"You came to me specifically because of Song Ruanruan?"
Rong Zhengqing's eyes darkened, and her expression became even darker than before. She pinched her palms, looked up indifferently at the man in front of her whom she had liked for many years, and felt a dull pain in her heart.
Without waiting for Zhuang Haosi to answer, she spoke directly.
"I can't help it."
After she finished speaking, she turned and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Zhuang Haosi hurriedly grabbed her arm and stopped the man.
Naturally, he didn't believe Rong Zhengqing's words, as he knew she always had the most ideas.
"Zhengqing, if you don't want to help, you can tell me the method and I will do it myself."
"I said I have no choice." Rong Zhengqing frowned irritably.
Zhuang Haosi naturally didn't believe it: "But you were able to let me become a primary school teacher back then, so this time you should be able to..."
"It was because I gave up my position to you. If you want Song Ruanruan to be a teacher in the elementary school, then you should give up your position."
She watched his eyes grow colder inch by inch, filled with anger.
She could tolerate his philandering, but she could not tolerate him asking her for help for another woman!
Looking at her face that suddenly turned cold, Zhuang Haosi realized belatedly that she was angry.
He was stunned for a moment, then took her hand, softened his tone and coaxed her softly: "Zhengqing, don't be angry, there is nothing between me and Song Ruanruan, I just saw that she is young and can't do farm work, and now she is injured, so I want to help her."
As he spoke, he paused and his tone became sad.
"She's about the same age as my sister. You know, my sister..."
Seeing that Rong Zhengqing remained silent but did not shake off his hand, he guessed that this time it would be the same as usual, and he could coax her into submission with just a few words.
"Can you help me think of a solution?"
Zhuang Haosi continued to lower his posture and request.
Who would have thought that this time Rong Zhengqing did not agree to his request directly as he expected, but instead gave him a cold look.
Rong Zhengqing shook his hand off fiercely. Listening to him calling her "sister" all the time, his stomach churned and he felt extremely nauseous.
"I said, if you want to help her, give her your place."
Zhuang Haosi frowned and looked at the furious Rong Zhengqing with dissatisfaction.
Naturally, he was unwilling to give up his position to Song Ruanruan. After all, being a teacher was not only easy as he didn't have to do farm work, but also had high work points.
"Zhengqing, you've always been the most resourceful. If you help me this time, I'll definitely remember your favor and thank you in the future. Can you help me?"
Zhuang Haosi grabbed her arm again.
At this time, Song Zhi, who was hiding aside, couldn't stand it any longer. She strode out and sneered, "This is the first time I've heard someone describe freeloading in such a refreshing and refined way."
Hearing the sarcasm in her words, Zhuang Haosi's face turned pale and blue. Realizing that she might have heard what he had just said, his face turned like a color palette, full of blue and purple, which was very exciting.
"You're almost taking care of your sister in bed, Zhuang Zhiqing. What good sister do you have? How dare you come to Rong Zhiqing?"
Song Zhi, however, didn't care about his expression and only spoke words that touched his heart.
Zhuang Haosi's face turned pale after hearing what she said, and his hands hanging at his sides were clenched into fists, but he still took into consideration that she was Song Ruanruan's sister after all.
At present, he has not really been included in the list of the Song family, and offending Song Zhi is not a good thing.
Song Zhi originally thought that Zhuang Haosi would turn against her, but she didn't expect that this man was not only a scumbag, but also shameless. He actually endured it without saying a word.
"I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
Now that Song Zhi was here, he had to put off asking Rong Zhengqing for help for the time being. Although Zhuang Haosi was unwilling, for the sake of his remaining face, he still said something to Rong Zhengqing and left quickly.
Song Zhi looked at his back as he left in disgrace and spat fiercely.
When I turned around, I found that Rong Zhengqing behind me was already in tears.
