Chapter 264



This time, Gu Qinghuan sent a total of 500 kilograms of rice to the small western-style building for them to share.

In addition, I sent 50 catties of rice to Xiao Zhuo's family, 50 catties of rice to Wang's family, and 50 catties of rice to Xu Lei's family. I also didn't forget Zhang Zheng and He Qiang.

She basically took care of all the families she was familiar with.

It's just that it's difficult to mail to Wang Xiaowei's place. Considering that she works for others and has a lot of things to do, I won't bother her.

Everyone has 5 kilograms, so why not give more? The main reason is that this stuff also has a shelf life, and I didn’t put any preservatives in it when I made it myself. It would be a pity if I gave too much at once and it would go bad.

A pound of beef jerky is not too little, it fills a big bag.

After dividing the money, there were still 5 kilograms left. Gu Qinghuan sent another 5 kilograms to Xu Huaian, and the address was the same address he had sent the letter to before.

Taking into account that he may need to take care of his comrades, which would cost a lot, I gave him more.

There were still 5 kilograms of rice left at home. Gu Qinghuan carried 5 kilograms for Zhong Dongjun, and Ji Linhai did not show favoritism, giving them the same amount of rice.

The remaining 100 kilograms were kept at home and eaten slowly. The two children could have a snack when they were hungry. She also liked this kind of snack.

I didn’t send it to my uncle this time. I sent a lot last time. It’s not good to send things to him too often because the target is too big.

I brought a few pounds of beef jerky to the dormitory, and before I could even warm it up, I ran into a robber named Lin Xiaomeng who insisted on buying it from me.

He forced her to move five pounds of beef jerky to her.

Gu Qinghuan could not say that he bought it outside for RMB 10 per pound, and that he bought it by chance and did not know the individual situation of the person.

Even so, Lin Xiaomeng insisted on buying what she had in her hand. She took out five yuan on the spot and took away five pounds of beef jerky.

Gu Qinghuan was speechless. Is this a matter of money? Her salary is the most expensive. Roasting beef and grilling beef are so tiring that her hands are shaking.

Forget it, just let her be.

But it seems that Lin Xiaomeng has made some money recently. She is so generous that she is willing to spend five dollars to buy such a small amount of beef jerky.

Lin Xiaomeng has indeed made a fortune recently.

The wheat and rice in her former planting space were harvested.

After keeping enough food for her family, she sold the rest on the black market. This food was just what she needed, so she sold it at a good price and made a lot of money, which was equivalent to a zero-cost transaction.

She decided to specialize in reselling grains to make money in the future. Other ways of making money were accidental, sometimes she could make money, sometimes she couldn't, but the grain she grew would definitely belong to her.

There is a lot of land in the space, so she needs to work harder. If she can clear some land and grow crops, the harvest will basically be good.

Lin Xiaomeng had already made up her mind: she would save the money she earned and use Xu Huaizhi's salary to cover the family's living expenses.

When the environment improves, she will use the money she saves to buy a house in Beijing. She will buy as much as she can. It would be nice to be a rich woman in the future.

Gu Qinghuan continued his miserable life as a teacher.

But some people obviously don't intend to let her go.

She clearly felt that everyone was avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally today, saying something behind her back, acting mysterious, and looking at her with eyes full of contempt.

But she didn't mind because she was busy.

At lunch, Lin Xiaomeng reminded her: "Be careful, someone is looking for trouble behind your back about the last time you treated them to a meal!"

Gu Qinghuan was very calm. She had done nothing wrong. There would always be a way to get there, so she just had to let things take their course.

Things got worse in the afternoon, and she had just finished a class when she was asked to have a talk with Principal Chen.

Principal Chen did not make things difficult for her and pointed out the problem directly.

"Teacher Gu, I won't beat around the bush with you. Some teachers have reported that you secretly hired students to work for you and treated them to meals as compensation. This is a serious problem with your conduct.

She also reflected on your family situation, saying…your mother and your maternal family were labeled counter-revolutionaries and “stinking ninths” and were sent to the cowshed.”

"Principal Chen, I admit that the children did help me with the work, but I was completely unaware of it.

After I found out about it, I specially invited them to dinner as a thank you. I think this has nothing to do with the problem of work style. It is a friendship between teachers and students. There is no need to take it so seriously.

In addition, regarding my family situation, although my mother, grandfather, and grandmother were sent down to the countryside, I never felt that they were wrong. Their only mistake was that they were highly educated and knew too much.

If you want to have any opinion or punishment on me because of this, I have nothing to say."

Gu Qinghuan finished the explanation very calmly throughout the whole process. She was waiting for Principal Chen's decision. The innocent will be innocent, and she didn't want to say anything more.

She doesn't have to be a teacher. At worst, she can go back to Xujiatun and sell yellow eels, which will earn her more than this.

When Principal Chen said the latter part, he stood up nervously and closed the door.

"Xiao Gu, I know you feel wronged, but there are some things that cannot be heard by others.

I will pretend that you have never said these words, and please don't say them again."

Principal Chen is also an intellectual. He has been walking on thin ice in recent days and dared not say anything contrary to the rules, for fear that he would be labeled a reactionary if he was not careful.

But he also sympathizes with these intellectuals in his heart and believes that many of them are innocent, but who made this world so difficult? Everyone is walking on a tightrope.

And he had reason to believe that a family that could raise such an outstanding child like Gu Qinghuan must be good.

"I understand. Thank you, Principal Chen." Gu Qinghuan appreciated his kindness. This old principal was a rare good man.

"Don't thank me first. I know you were wrongly accused. When there are many people around, there will be many gossips. Everyone loves to spread rumors.

Without investigation, there is no right to speak. I have already conducted a detailed investigation on the children.

They were afraid that you would be punished, so they started crying on the spot, said a lot of nice things to me, and assured me that it was their personal behavior and had nothing to do with you.

I have to say, Teacher Xiao Gu, you are a very charismatic teacher. It has only been a short time since you started teaching them, but you have been able to make the children open up to you. This really shows your character. It would be great if there were more teachers like you in the school.

I was not wrong about you."

Gu Qinghuan felt warm in his heart, these lovely children.

But she didn't interrupt, because she knew that since Principal Chen had said so much, there must be more twists and turns.

really.

"But now everyone is talking about it. What happened with your mother is indeed true. If you are still appointed as the class teacher, it will probably arouse everyone's dissatisfaction and make the matter worse.

But I really can't bear to part with you. In my career, I rarely see teachers as talented as you.

In order to calm down this incident, I can fire your head teacher first and give everyone an explanation. You can still teach their classes in the future. Do you think this is okay?" Principal Chen lowered his posture and used a negotiating tone.

Gu Qinghuan was actually a little sad in her heart. After all, she had done nothing wrong, but she was being punished for no reason just because of some rumors.

According to her temper in her previous life, she couldn't stand any anger at all. If she couldn't be welcomed here, she would find another place for her to stay.

But she also understood that by keeping her, the old principal would be taking risks, after all, people's gossip is scary.

She could reject those who looked down on her, but she could not reject the old principal who humbled himself in order to keep her.

Well, she didn't want to be the head teacher anyway. She was in a hurry to get the job done before, and now she can relax a little. It's just that she feels a little sorry for the children. She has just been in charge of them for a short time and she has to change people again.

Fortunately, she can still be a Chinese teacher.

"Okay, as long as you can deal with those people, I have no objection.

If it doesn't work, I will accept the school's arrangement." Gu Qinghuan nodded in agreement.

Principal Chen finally smiled with relief.

"Don't worry, I will keep this matter under control. You just need to focus on teaching from now on."

Before leaving, Gu Qinghuan pretended to ask casually, "Principal Chen, the one who made the complaint was Wan Rong, right?"

Principal Chen didn't say anything, but Gu Qinghuan could tell from his eyes that this person was Wan Rong.

After all, the only person she had offended in this elementary school was Wan Rong.

Although she was not so interested in whether she could continue to be the head teacher.

But she must be unhappy to be put in such a passive position by others.

Deep down, Gu Qinghuan is a person who will take revenge if he has any grudge against him.

Wanrong, it’s better not to let her get the chance.

After Lin Muyang knew about this, he explained to Principal Chen very eagerly that Gu Qinghuan was right, and it was those who confused right and wrong who were wrong.

Unfortunately, the matter has not been settled.

He thought he would be very sad for Gu Qinghuan, but people comforted him and said he was fine and seemed to be in good condition.

Principal Chen took Gu Qinghuan and Lin Muyang to the class to announce the news to everyone. Later, Gu Qinghuan could no longer be their class teacher, so Lin Muyang took over, but the class continued.

The disappointment in the children's eyes is obvious. Children today do not have the right to speak like children in later generations, and they cannot bravely question the teacher's arrangements.

Everyone was used to obeying the arrangements of the teachers and the school, so they secretly felt lost, but no one dared to ask why it was like this.

Wang Qingchuan and the other kids who helped thought that Gu Qinghuan was dismissed because of them. They felt sad and guilty and quietly wiped away their tears.

After Principal Chen left, Wang Qingchuan finally couldn't sit still anymore and ran out quietly.

"Principal Chen, haven't we explained it all? It's not Teacher Gu's fault. She didn't know about it. It was all our own fault. Why should we punish her?" Wang Qingchuan asked with tears in his eyes.

He was actually very nervous and afraid when questioning the principal like this, but he still wanted to get the answer clear.

Gu Qinghuan caught up and just heard these words. He was indescribably moved and felt that all his efforts during this period were worth it.

"Principal Chen, please go and do your work first! I will explain everything to him clearly." Gu Qinghuan pulled Wang Qingchuan and signaled Principal Chen to go first.

This matter cannot be explained in just a few words.

"Okay, Xiao Gu, have a good talk with this kid."
