Chapter 277



But if a person has the right temperament, it really doesn't matter what he wears at any time.

Gu Qinghuan's face would look good even if it was covered with sackcloth, and with a confident smile, it would make people feel ashamed.

Gu Qinghuan did not tell everyone why he came right away, but instead invited everyone to have dinner together.

She wanted to test the Wang couple's attitude towards Wang Ruolan's study first, whether they were in favor or not.

During the meal, you could hear the sound of chopsticks being moved.

After eating, Gu Qinghuan put down her chopsticks and asked tentatively, "Sister, Ruolan got second place in the school this time and will be admitted to a high school in the county. What do you think?"

A complex expression flashed across Ruolan's mother's face, first surprise, then helplessness, melancholy, and depression.

My father was silent for a long time.

They have tried their best and really can't afford it.

No, in fact, if you sell everything, borrow money from all the relatives in the village, and use the whole family's strength, you can betray her.

But they not only have a daughter, Wang Ruolan, but they also have a son, who is missing.

The family is originally poor. If they spend all their money on their daughter's education, they will not be able to pay for their son's marriage after two years, and they will be in debt. No girl will like such a family. Are they going to let the child be single?

In this environment where boys are valued over girls and male offspring are given priority.

It was not easy for them to support their daughter until she graduated from junior high school.

Wang Ruolan was a rare girl in the village who had received an education. Even the village secretary's daughter, Wang Xiaowei, had not received much education and could not even read big characters.

The couple's vision has reached this point. We cannot say that they are ignorant, but we can say that they are all poor. A penny can make a hero fall.

Wang Ruolan already knew the situation at home, so she lowered her head and said nothing. She understood her parents' difficulties and didn't want to force them.

When Wang Ruojun heard this, the meat in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

Why did her sister do so well in the exam?

Unfortunately, her parents would not support her, even though he had repeatedly advised them not to.

It had been so long that Gu Qinghuan thought the couple no longer spoke to each other.

Wang Ruolan's mother choked up and said, "Teacher Gu, I want to support her, but we really can't.

In order to support her education, our family spent every penny in their pockets. Everyone in the village said we were stupid.

I also have a son, and in two years I will have to find a wife, and I will have to build two more houses, so everything will cost money.

I can’t sacrifice my whole family for her.”

This is a mother's true words.

She did not deny the choice between her two children and was very honest.

In fact, this is human nature.

Gu Qinghuan understands that life is not easy for everyone.

What they really want is for their daughter to continue her studies.

"This time, I came here to help Ruolan with her studies.

Her grades were good, so she was very optimistic about her and was willing to sponsor her to continue her studies.

If you are willing, you will pay for her tuition and living expenses for the next two years."

When Gu Qinghuan said this, everyone at the table had different reactions.

But to sum it up, it can be summed up in two words: surprise.

Wang Ruolan knew it a long time ago, but when Gu Qinghuan said it, the heavy stone in her heart fell down.

"You...you really want to sponsor her studies? Teacher Gu, this, this, this is not a small amount of money. Have you really thought it through?" Wang Ruolan's mother confirmed with her cautiously.

She was afraid that the teacher didn't understand the situation and would back off halfway through the funding, leaving the child even more hopeless. It would be better not to give her hope in the first place.

After all, who would be willing to spend hundreds of dollars on a stranger, especially one who doesn't expect anything in return?

Is there really anyone in the world who is willing to be such a sucker?

If Wang Ruolan hadn't introduced Gu Qinghuan's identity in person, they would probably have thought she was a liar.

"Don't worry, the money has been prepared long ago. I came here to ask for your consent.

I will sign a gift contract with you, and you must guarantee that every penny I give you will be spent on Ruolan's studies."

Wang Ruojun could not wait to assure: "We agree, we all agree. Teacher, don't worry, I will never let my parents touch a penny. I will give it all to my sister's education, and I will not touch it either."

He understood his sister's desire to continue studying so well that he sometimes thought she was crazy.

What's the good of studying?

He didn't understand, but he was willing to support his sister's decision and fulfill her dream.

Wang Ruolan was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears.

Although her parents did not give her priority, she did not resent them, because this was the way the world was, and she was already happier than many girls.

Ruolan's father's eyes were red.

"Teacher Gu, I have nothing else to say to express my gratitude. I bow to you. Our whole family is grateful for your kindness.

Ruolan, Teacher Gu will be your adopted parent in the future, you have to respect her more than you respect us.

If you can really become famous in the future, don’t forget the kindness of your teacher.”

Wang Ruolan nodded frantically, tears rolling down her eyes.

"I understand."

Gu Qinghuan was completely following her heart to support them at this moment. She didn't actually expect anything in return, but she was of course greatly comforted by the fact that the child she was supporting was a kind-hearted person.

Even if she didn't have Wang Zhiyuan's money, she would still do it.

After dinner, Gu Qinghuan called Wang's father and mother over to discuss the specific amount of funding.

According to Lin Muyang, the tuition for each semester in high school is about RMB 50.

In addition, there are living expenses and tuition fees.

This issue is worth discussing. After all, the cost of living can be high or low according to different standards. They have to negotiate a standard that both parties are satisfied with and implement it in the future.

Gu Qinghuan also had no idea how much Wang Ruolan's living expenses usually were in a month.

Father Wang waved his hand and said, "Teacher Gu, our Ruolan doesn't spend much money on food on weekdays. Bringing a steamed bun and a box of pickled vegetables from home will last her a week.

Otherwise, don't worry about the living expenses, just take care of the tuition, accommodation, and purchase of study tools."

The king's father was also embarrassed to spend too much money on other people, so he was responsible for his own food and drink.

Wang Ruolan lowered her head and said nothing when she heard this. She told herself that it didn’t matter. As long as she could continue to study, she was willing to endure any hardship.

She used to be a loner in class and had few friends because her family conditions were too poor.

Dun Dun secretly nibbled on the black-faced steamed buns with pickled cabbage. She couldn't compete with the other students, so she was too embarrassed to get too close to them for fear that people would say she was taking advantage of them.

Gu Qinghuan noticed the girl's sensitive mind, and a trace of pity flashed across his mind.

She shook her head and said, "Big Brother, Big Sister, you can't count like that. Ruolan is in the period of growth, and studying is a brain-intensive task. She must keep up with nutrition. How can she survive by just eating cold steamed buns and salted vegetables?"

"This girl wants to study, don't expect to enjoy a good life. It's good enough for her to have this every day." The Queen Mother glared at Wang Ruolan.
