Chapter 386 Warm-hearted
Chapter 386 Warm-hearted
With great curiosity, Xu Damao tiptoed to the window of Jia's house and listened. He wanted to hear how Sha Zhu got close to Teacher Ran.
Soon Qin Huairu's voice was heard inside, and she began to introduce Sha Zhu and Teacher Ran to each other.
"Teacher Ran, this is a neighbor of ours. His name is He Yuzhu. He is the chef in the kitchen of the steel mill. He is a warm-hearted person and often helps our family."
Then I heard a nice female voice:
“Hello, Master He, you are such a good person, and you even helped Banggeng pay his tuition.
As the saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Your relationship is really enviable."
The speaking voice should be that of our class teacher, Ms. Ran Qiuye. She has a really nice voice and must be good-looking too.
Then I heard Sha Zhu's disgusting hoarse voice speaking:
"Hello, Teacher Ran, this is as it should be. Living in the same compound, all the neighbors are like one family.
Everyone has difficulties. When there are difficulties, everyone should help each other. This is what we should do. "
This grandson Sha Zhu is really good at pretending to be himself. He speaks as if it were true. Xu Damao feels disgusted.
Of course Teacher Ran didn’t know, she really thought Sha Zhu was a kind-hearted person.
"That's great, Master He is such a good person.
Alas, I have no choice. This time, the school leaders gave us this task. I also know that Banggeng's family is having a hard time, but I still have to complete the task. "
Seeing that Teacher Ran looked somewhat guilty, Sha Zhu of course wanted to show off himself. He quickly comforted her:
"It's okay, Teacher Ran. This is as it should be. You should pay tuition to go to school. The school has done nothing wrong.
It's just that my sister-in-law's family doesn't have enough money. Don't worry, I'm here to help you complete the task. Here's 2 yuan, keep it.
And we won’t be behind in paying Banggeng’s tuition for next semester. I remember it’s March 3st, right?
We will prepare in advance by then. If my sister-in-law's family is not available, I am still there."
Hearing what Sha Zhu said, Ran Qiuye suddenly felt relieved. Banggeng’s tuition was indeed a big problem.
She definitely couldn't not pay, because the Jia family's conditions did not fall within the range of tuition exemption, but she was in a difficult situation as their family always dragged their feet on paying. Now this man named He Yuzhu solved her problem in one go, and she didn't even have to worry about the next semester. It was really a great help.
"Okay, that's good. It's good to have good neighbors. The people in your compound are all good people, and the relationship between neighbors is really good."
Sha Zhu was so flattered by Teacher Ran's praise that he felt like he had lost several pounds. He was so happy that he decided to strike while the iron was hot.
"This is what I should do. I didn't do anything. It's my duty to help others if I am able.
Teacher Ran, why don’t you come to my room and sit down? I have some good tea there. It’s so cold, so you can drink some to warm your stomach.”
Of course, Ran Qiuye would not go to a strange man's house so late at night. Since her business was done, she took the opportunity to leave, as there were still several students waiting for her to visit their homes.
"Master He, I won't go. There are five or six students waiting for me downstairs. Time is tight. I have to hurry to their house and can't be late."
Of course Sha Zhu was a little disappointed that Teacher Ran didn't go for tea, but he couldn't show it and could only generously say it was okay.
"Oh, that's business. If there's business, then you should do it right away and not delay your work.
Then I'll take you there."
Hearing that their chat was over and they were about to go out, Xu Damao left the place quickly. However, he did not return to his home. Instead, he secretly walked out of the courtyard gate and went to the alley outside the courtyard.
Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye walked out of the Jia family's house. Along the way, Sha Zhu kept finding things to talk about.
"Teacher Ran, you are usually very busy at work, right?"
"It's OK. It's pretty busy when school starts."
"It's not easy to be a teacher. It's finally winter vacation, but I still have to work overtime."
"It's all about work."
"Yes, people should work actively and contribute to the construction of the motherland."
……
Along the way, Sha Zhu kept chattering away. Ran Qiuye didn't want to pay attention to him but was too embarrassed to do so so he could only respond casually.
When leaving the door, Sha Zhu was still helping Teacher Ran to carry the bicycle in a mean way. After leaving the door, he wanted to continue carrying her down, saying that the alley was too dark and it was not safe for a woman like Teacher Ran.
But Ran Qiuye didn't want to go on.
"Okay, I'm leaving first, Master He, you should go back quickly."
Shazhu still wants to keep trying.
"Let me give you another one."
Ran Qiuye refused directly.
"No, I'm leaving now."
Then Ran Qiuye got on his bike and left quickly, not giving Sha Zhu any chance at all.
Sha Zhu stood behind and stared at Ran Qiuye's delicate back in a daze. He kept muttering to himself:
“It’s not safe at night!
It's really heartbreaking. If only I could give you one more paragraph, it would be great. Teacher Ran is just too shy. I really don't have anything to do, and I have plenty of time. "
When Sha Zhu was seeing Teacher Ran off, he was very attentive along the way, and Qin Huairu who was behind him saw it all.
The figures of Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye talking passionately and the wonderful atmosphere blurred Qin Huairu's eyes. This situation made her very uncomfortable. She didn't know why. It was as if she had lost the most important thing. Anyway, her heart was empty and helpless.
After Qin Huairu returned home listlessly, she called Banggeng over and started asking him about paying tuition.
"Bang Geng, let me ask you, what's the matter with Sha Zhu paying your tuition?"
Talking about the fact that Sha Zhu took the initiative to help Bang Geng pay tuition, Qin Huairu felt really happy at the time. A family should have a man to protect her from the wind and rain.
She already felt a lot of pressure to pay the 2 yuan tuition fee for Banggeng, because the steel mill paid the employees' salaries 5 days before the Spring Festival for the sake of the factory.
Although the salary has been paid, it has been used to pay off the hunger left over from last month. Plus, the Chinese New Year is coming soon and some New Year goods must be purchased. How much of the salary will be left?
During the Chinese New Year, we always have to have some meat and eat dumplings, and also some white flour. Since we can’t afford white flour buns, we always have to have some buns made from two-grain flour.
After counting the daily necessities and miscellaneous expenses, the New Year has passed, but the remaining money is not enough for the rest of the living expenses.
If I pay the tuition for Banggeng, in addition to this semester's tuition, I have to pay for the next semester. After paying the 2 yuan tuition, there are many things that I can't buy. I also have to make some plans for the days after the Chinese New Year. I can't go hungry then. It's too difficult.
With Sha Zhu's help, Qin Huairu felt a lot more relaxed. She felt so warm in her heart at that time. The burden of life was making her breathless. She hadn't felt such warmth for a long time.
