Su Congjun also blushed, his lips twitched and he was speechless.
"Look at these two children, are you embarrassed?" Zhang Xinlan covered her mouth and smiled. The whole family looked at it and laughed.
Su Congjun and Wen Sisi looked at each other, feeling even more embarrassed.
"Everyone take it one by one."
Everyone took the red seal from Wu Guixiang's hand one after another. Zhang Xinlan took the one that belonged to Su Congwen. She was very happy because her son's was hers.
"What time is it now?" Wu Guixiang asked.
Su Congjun looked at the time and said, "It's almost nine o'clock."
"Is it so late?" Wu Guixiang stood up, "It's almost time. Let's go to bed early." This is not the official Spring Festival, and there is no need to keep the New Year's Eve.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Su Congwu yawned. He rushed back after a day's work and was already very sleepy.
Everyone went back to their rooms and prepared to rest. Zhang Xinlan sat on the bed and couldn't wait to open the red seal. She had long wanted to see how much money was inside.
"Look at you like that. This new year's money is just for fun. How much can it be?" Su Aidang didn't care.
"How much is money." Zhang Xinlan curled her lips and said. This was a rare opportunity for her to take money confidently. The amount is not important, the important thing is this meaning.
She opened the red envelope and her eyes widened when she saw the tickets inside, "Love the Party, guess how many there are?"
"How much can it be? Fifty cents?" Su Aidang took off his clothes and lay down. In previous years, it was almost this amount.
"What fifty cents? Five yuan, five yuan!" Zhang Xinlan excitedly raised the five yuan note in her hand.
Su Aidang sat up immediately and couldn't believe it, "Mom is so generous this year?"
"Don't you think about our family's income this year?" Zhang Xinlan turned her head and figured it out, "Several children in our family have worked this year, and their monthly income is quite large. Although they are still in school, She has contributed the most to our family’s income this year.”
"And the third child, even he went to the team to help, and he came back with so many good things this time."
Zhang Xinlan gets jealous when she thinks about the bonus that Su Qingyun got before, but no matter how jealous she is, she can't envy it, and she can't get it, but she is content with getting such five yuan.
It was only five yuan on New Year's Day. If the Spring Festival came, I would definitely get more. With this wonderful expectation, the couple fell asleep.
Over in the third room, Su Aimin was giving Su Qingyun a bulging red envelope.
"Daughter, this is the New Year's Day red envelope for you." Su Aimin waved his hand proudly, "Take it first. There will be more during the Spring Festival. Dad will give you a bigger one then."
Su Qingyun was a little stunned, "So many?"
Qin Ying looked at her daughter and smiled tenderly, "This is what I gave to your father and two people. If your grandma and grandpa were here, there would definitely be more."
Su Qingyun looked at the red envelope in her hand and was a little startled. Things like lucky money were very unfamiliar to her. In her previous life, her family conditions were very good, but everyone abided by etiquette, even between relatives. It is also more than respectful and not warm enough.
She could hardly feel anything like lucky money, which placed ordinary expectations on children.
"Thank you, dad, thank you, mom." She said slowly, her voice was very soft.
"Thank you." Qin Ying touched her head, "Go to bed quickly."
"Good night, Mom and Dad."
Perhaps because they had eaten well and drank well, everyone slept well on this night of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new year.
The next day was New Year's Day, the first day of the new year, and the calendar was replaced with a new one. Su Qingyun got up early and stood at the door of the courtyard to breathe in the fresh morning air.
She is in a great mood. Today is the first day of this new year, and it is also the first New Year she has spent here. Calculating carefully, she has been here for more than four months, and the days have passed too fast. , I really didn’t realize it.
"Qingyun, are you up so early?" Qin Youfu passed by Su's house and saw her and said hello.
"It's not too early." Su Qingyun smiled and said, "Uncle Youfu, where are you going?"
"Aren't you going to see how the school is doing?" Qin Youfu looked anxious, "After this year is over, the start of the next semester is getting closer and closer, and I'm feeling anxious. "
The construction progress had been delayed due to his negligence before. If he really couldn't enroll students as scheduled later, he didn't know how to explain it to the villagers.
"Uncle Youfu, don't worry." Su Qingyun comforted him, "The brick factory dares to promise, of course it can be done. For such a big factory, how dare they smash their own sign?"
"How about?" Su Qingyun thought for a while, "I will accompany you to have a look?" She was fine.
"That's good, let's go." Qin Youfu was naturally happy.
The lesson he learned last time was profound. Now he has a hundred trust in Su Qingyun. Maybe he can see some problems if she goes together.
The two talked about school while walking. Today is New Year's Day, and the workers are also on holiday.
Su Qingyun took a look and found that the school had completed more than half of the classes. According to this progress, it would be possible to catch up with the opening of enrollment.
She looked at the layout of the school and let out a puzzled sigh. Before, she had only noticed the quality issues and not the layout of the school.
"What's wrong, Qingyun?" Qin Youfu became nervous when he heard her tone, "Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, it's okay." Su Qingyun smiled and asked him to relax, "I was just looking at what this row of bungalows is for?"
The school's building layout is triangular, with a large playground facing the three-story teaching building. Next to it are two rows of bungalows on the left and right. One should be the toilet, and the other is the teacher's office and Security room or something like that.
However, these offices have been built too much. No wonder they needed so many bricks before.
"It's a place for teachers to work." Qin Youfu's words were similar to what Su Qingyun thought.
"Do we need so many teachers?" Su Qingyun was a little confused. Even the middle school in their town only had a few teachers for each grade. Their village was just a primary school. Do they need so many teachers?
"Of course." Qin Youfu pointed to the three-story teaching corridor, "We expect this building to accommodate more than 300 students."
"So many?" Su Qingyun was surprised. Where did so many students of the right age come from? There aren't that many villages around them combined, right?
"It's like this, Qingyun." Qin Youfu slowly explained to her, "The reason why we were able to get funding for this school is because in the early planning, we not only counted children of school age, but also Higher grades.”
"Going to the town to go to school is still too far for younger children. We thought that once this school is built, many second to fifth grade students can come here to go to school. In this way, there will naturally be a lot of students. , I’m worried that this building won’t be able to accommodate it.”
"When there are more students, there will naturally be more teachers. For each of the five grades, we plan to have one main subject teacher and one associate subject teacher, which will require ten."
Qin Youfu rambled on about the school's plans, and Su Qingyun was surprised. No wonder the people in the village valued this school so much. It could be said that the future of the children from several nearby villages was here.
She couldn't help but sigh that it was already very difficult to get an education these days. They even considered the major and minor subjects. It was not without careful consideration and long-term thinking.
But, a dozen teachers?
"Uncle Fu, will the higher authorities send someone to come as a teacher?" Su Qingyun asked. Since the higher authorities have allocated funds to build the school, they will definitely be responsible to the end.
"Yes, but maybe only two or three at most." Qin Youfu became a little worried when talking about this matter, "After all, we are not the only school in these ten miles and eight towns, and even if the higher-ups take care of it, they can't take care of the selection of teachers. We still have to figure it out ourselves.”
Not to mention teachers, there are still a large number of illiterates in this village. Many people in the original literacy class were fished in troubled waters. There are too few truly literate people, and even if there are, they are not in the village and have long since found another way out. How could he stay in the village and become a teacher?
Where would he find so many teachers? Qin Youfu has been worrying about this problem for a long time.
"There are so many educated young people in our village, can't they become teachers?" Su Qingyun was a little confused.
In terms of knowledge and cultural level, the group of educated young people should be the highest. Aren’t they the most suitable to be teachers?
"Qingyun, it's not that simple." Qin Youfu smiled, with deep meaning in his words, "Although those educated young people came to us to help us with construction, how do we choose to be school teachers? If we choose this person, others will What do people think?”
This is true. Su Qingyun was silent for a moment. So many educated young people came here. They are all arrogant. Who can be a teacher and want to do rough work? It may be okay at first. But in the long run, the mind will wander. Who can say for sure? Will they have any resentment in their hearts? Will a fight begin secretly?
Besides, even if I had to choose between them, who would choose? What are the assessment criteria?
These issues must be considered above.
Su Qingyun frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up, "Uncle Youfu, I have thought of a way."
"What can we do?" Qin Youfu was stunned.
"Since we can't find so many teachers, why not train them ourselves?" Su Qingyun said, "First find one or two educated people in the village to be teachers, and then select some smart, understanding and basic people to train for a period of time. , they will not only learn knowledge, but also learn the methods used by teachers to teach them, thus killing two birds with one stone and getting twice the result with half the effort.”
As soon as Su Qingyun said these words, Qin Youfu thought for a moment, and his eyes slowly lit up. Yes, although there are no top students in the village, there are still many people who graduated from elementary school. Find two high school graduates to teach them. Isn't he just a fresh teacher?
This is a good idea!
