“Let’s walk a bit further and digest this. Yan Yan, is your reaction severe? If it’s not serious, I think you should find some work to do at the base, like teaching the kids, how about that?”
Jian Ning's eyes lit up. Wasn't that exactly what she had been struggling with—not having a suitable teacher?
Liu Yan has delivered herself right to our doorstep. She's a top student in Chinese Language and Literature from a prestigious university; teaching a child is a piece of cake for her.
"How old is the child?" Liu Yan also felt that she couldn't stay at home like this every day. It would be best if she could find something to do and have an income.
"Don't worry, there are no children too young, starting from first grade."
They were taught elementary school curriculum, and all the textbooks and materials were provided.
The workday is seven hours, and the base will give you points, which are like money. The only problem is that the classroom location hasn't been found yet, but it's definitely not far from here.
It won't take more than ten days to two weeks to build now. If you agree, this matter can be finalized. I can then make the decision.”
"Okay, no need to think about it, I agree. Ningning, thank you so much for always thinking of me. If I hadn't met you, I don't know what I would be like now."
"Yan Yan, we're good friends, so there's no need for thanks. I'll definitely help if I can. If I were in trouble, would you abandon me?"
Definitely not, so you don't need to worry about it. Since you have no objections, then it's settled.
I will find a suitable house to use as a classroom as soon as possible, and then I will start teaching.
Isn't it a bit too few to have only one teacher?
"Hey, Brother Xiao, why don't you become a teacher too? You could teach the kids PE and math; in this day and age, good health is very important."
Jian Ning's eyes lit up, and she immediately set her sights on Xiao Wuyu. If he could stay at the school and take Tian Tian to and from school every day, she wouldn't have to worry about safety.
I thought he wouldn't agree immediately and I'd have to persuade him, but to my surprise, Xiao Wuyu nodded slightly.
"Okay, I'll use my points for food expenses."
Hearing his words, Jian Ning rolled her eyes. He certainly knew how to scheme. He'd become addicted to the good food at home.
“Okay, it’s a deal. A gentleman’s word is his bond. Brother Xiao, you must work hard to teach your students well. I’ll definitely find you a few talented ones.” Jian Ning chuckled twice.
He was probably quite pleased with himself, having managed to get two top-notch teachers over without spending a single penny.
Especially Xiao Wuyu; his skills are not something ordinary people can learn. The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art and physical fitness techniques are child's play for him.
Jian Ning has yet to witness his true abilities.
"Ningning, I'm going back now. If you have any elementary school textbooks, please send me a set."
I'll prepare my lesson in advance. It would be best to get some paper and pens too; you know, I'm practically a refugee here, with nothing but bare walls and nothing at all.
"Okay, I got it. Don't fight with that old woman when you get back, you're pregnant. She doesn't hold back, she's obviously unreasonable." Jian Ning followed behind her, worried, and gave her a word of advice.
"I know, I'm leaving now, goodbye Brother Xiao." Liu Yan turned back to look at Xiao Wuyu and smiled slightly, then walked towards his home.
"What, you've taken a fancy to her? Too bad she already has a husband." Jian Ning turned around and teased Xiao Wuyu for staring at Liu Yan.
"She looked just like my former Daoist partner. Unfortunately, during one of my explorations of a secret realm, it suddenly collapsed, burying Xian'er inside. I never found her again."
After all these years, I never imagined I could see her former face on another person's face. For a moment, I felt a little dazed. Please forgive my inconvenience, Miss Jian.
Xiao Wuyu's tone was somewhat forlorn.
"Brother Xiao, I was being presumptuous. I touched on something that saddened you."
Jian Ning quickly apologized. She hadn't expected Liu Yan to resemble Xiao Wuyu's former Daoist partner; perhaps it was fate.
She explained why she had agreed to be a teacher so readily; it turned out it was because of Liu Yan. It seemed Xiao Wuyu missed his Daoist partner and wanted to see her face, which resembled his, more often, which was why he agreed.
“It’s alright,” Xiao Wuyu waved his hand.
"Let's go back to acupuncture. Now that I've agreed to let you become a teacher, I need to heal this leg as soon as possible. Take me back to my immortal abode. I need to start refining pills again."
Jian Ning didn't expect him to be in such a hurry, wanting to go back as soon as he came out. It seems that Liu Yan's face had really bothered him.
But this is also a good thing; she couldn't be happier to see Xiao Wuyu's leg heal quickly.
So after returning, they sent him directly back to the Immortal Abode and told Granny Wang that Xiao Wuyu had gone to visit someone else and would not be able to come back for the time being.
Aunt Wang didn't take it seriously. She didn't doubt Jian Ning's words at all.
In the afternoon, Jian Ning found a complete set of elementary school textbooks and sent it to Liu Yan.
When she arrived, the old woman hid inside the house and didn't dare to come out.
Liu Yan also had a slap mark on his face, and half of his face was swollen.
Upon seeing this, Jian Ning's anger flared up instantly.
"Was it Wu Gang who hit you? Yan Yan, are you just going to put up with this?"
"Otherwise what? Today was already considered good. He came back and heard that I had a fight with his mother. Without asking why, he just slapped me across the face."
Then he cursed a few times and left. That's just his temper; I'm used to it. He only hit me once today, which is considered mild.
I'll take a good look at these textbooks, prepare my lessons, and put together a lesson plan. Anyway, I'm not fit for physical labor, so teaching children is perfect for me.
"No rush, there's still time. The classroom location hasn't been chosen yet. I'll go talk to Wu Gang and make sure he never dares to lay a hand on you again. Otherwise, it breaks my heart to see you getting beaten up every day."
"Don't go, Ningning. You're no match for him. He knows martial arts; he's been learning since he was a child. You'll definitely suffer if you go after him." Liu Yan panicked as soon as she heard this, put down the book in her hand, and quickly stopped her.
"With this, even if he's incredibly skilled, can he be faster than a gun?"
"If all else fails, I'll shoot him twice in the leg and make him stay home to recover, then see if he's scared." Jian Ning pulled a Type 64 pistol from her pocket and showed it to Liu Yan.
"Isn't it prohibited for individuals to carry guns here?" Liu Yan really didn't expect Jian Ning to have a gun.
"My husband is in the military, so you can rest assured."
I'm not as frail as you; just wait for the good news.
Jian Ning was determined to beat Wu Gang into submission today, and see if he would dare to lay a finger on Liu Yan again.
Ignoring Liu Yan's attempts to stop her, she strode out the door and left quickly. She didn't walk very fast, but she disappeared from sight in no time. Liu Yan couldn't catch up with her and stomped his feet in frustration.
