The store in Fucheng is about to open, and Li Yi plans to be his own boss. After all, although the village is peaceful and peaceful, it is perfect for retirement, but he has not saved enough for his pension yet, and needs to work hard for some more time.
Of course, living in the village is quite boring after a long time, and the city is extremely lively and prosperous, which is far more interesting than staying here---but this reason is not so important compared to the previous one.
In this case, the school affairs will of course be put aside.
With his current influence in the village, he can already make his own decisions on such small matters.
Most of the Liu family's direct relatives still rely on him to make money, so naturally they won't have any objections to this.
"Miss Qin, these children will have to trouble you a lot in the future." At the door of the school, Li Yi said to a weak-looking girl.
The girl's surname is Qin, and her last name is Qing. She looks a bit frail, and exudes a faint bookish aura.
Qin Qing's grandfather is Mr. Qin. Before Li Yi came here, he was teaching in the school. However, he accidentally broke his leg a few days ago and may have to stay in bed at home.
After Li Yi left, the school will still continue. From now on, the girl in front of him will take his place.
Having been with Mr. Qin since she was a child, the young girl can also read and write, making her one of the few educated people in the village.
Of course, there are still many people in the village who have doubts about how a woman can be a gentleman. However, they have no say in this matter. Since they were able to get involved in the candied haws business, they
Everyone is eager to have a good relationship with Li Yi. Maybe one day he will be happy and he can be exempted from some "franchising" fees, so naturally he will not oppose him on these small things.
"Brother-in-law, can I... really be a gentleman?"
The naughty children in the school did not see the two of them and were still making trouble inside. The girl glanced into the room, with a trace of hesitation on her pretty face, and asked timidly.
When Li Yi asked her for her opinion before, the girl hesitated for a long time and finally agreed.
Firstly, it was because she really liked these things. When her grandfather was a teacher in school, she often wondered when she would be able to stand in that position, but she just thought about it. After all, in this world
, after all, women do not do things as they please as men do.
Another reason is that they have received too many favors from Li Yi these days, and it is impossible for her to refuse these small things.
My father died young, and there were only mother, daughter, and elderly grandfather in the family. Although life was difficult before, I could still get by, but after my grandfather accidentally broke his leg, life became even more difficult.
If Xiaohuan hadn't often sent some rice noodles, I'm afraid my life would have been difficult.
Therefore, the girl's family is extremely grateful to them.
"Don't worry, I just teach them a few words every day. It's not difficult." Li Yi smiled, and habitually wanted to reach out and pat her shoulder to encourage her. Only when he reached halfway did he realize that she seemed a little uncomfortable.
It was so appropriate. He withdrew his hand, pointed to the inside of the school, and said, "Let's go in."
The girl nodded after hearing this and followed Li Yi in.
After the two of them entered the school, the originally noisy naughty child immediately calmed down and sat back in his seat obediently.
Seeing that there is a beautiful sister beside my husband today, my naughty eyes immediately started to look at her.
Most of them knew that this sister seemed to be Mr. Qin's family, but they didn't know what this sister and her husband were doing today.
"Today, we are not in class. Last time we told the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun. Today we will talk about Kuafu chasing the sun, Chang'e flying to the moon, Jingwei filling the sea..." Qin Qing took the initiative to sit aside, Li Yi's eyes were on
He glanced around the school and spoke.
When these words were spoken, the naughty children's attention immediately withdrew from the girl, and their faces were all filled with excitement.
In the past, as long as they performed well in class, the teacher would tell them a story after the class.
From those stories, they learned that the sky and the earth used to be connected together, and a giant named Pangu split the heaven and earth with an axe. It turned out that the earliest humans were kneaded out of mud by the Empress Nuwa. It turned out that
There used to be ten suns in the sky. Hou Yi, a master of archery, bent his bow and shot down nine...
These stories, like the monkey holding the stick, deeply attract these naughty children.
Today, my husband actually wants to tell so many stories. For these naughty children, it will undoubtedly be more enjoyable than the Chinese New Year.
The girl named Qin Qing listened to the slow and magnetic voice. When she turned her head and looked over, she saw the attentive faces of the naughty children, and her heart seemed to be touched by something.
These half-grown children were very naughty and ran rampant in the village, causing them no idea how much trouble they had. At this moment, seeing those innocent and extremely clear eyes, a seed quietly grew in her heart.
Buried.
When she turned to look at Li Yi, she was also longing for when she would be like this, so respected and loved by these children...
After telling a few stories, the naughty children still had an aftertaste expression on their faces. Li Yi stood up, looked at them and said: "After today, this sister Qin will teach you your lessons in my place. You must be as obedient as before.
, you are not allowed to bully her, you know?"
When the naughty children heard this, the expressions on their faces froze, and then they looked at Li Yi suddenly, looking a little panicked.
"Sir, are you leaving?"
"Why are you leaving, sir?"
"Did we make sir angry?"
"Sir, don't leave, we will definitely be obedient!"
The naughty children were of different ages, the oldest was in his early ten years, and the youngest was only seven or eight years old. When they heard that Li Yi was leaving, they all had panic expressions on their faces.
Seeing the naughty children who suddenly became extremely excited, Li Yi felt warm in his heart. Even though these children were a little naughty, they were just innocent children. After getting along with them these days, it would be natural to say that he didn't have any feelings for them.
It's also impossible.
But he can't be a gentleman here for the rest of his life. He has to leave eventually. Sooner or later, there will be such a moment.
Li Yi stretched out his hand and pressed downwards. The naughty child's voice gradually became quieter, but he still looked at him expectantly.
"Liu Xiaohu." Li Yi opened his mouth and called out a name.
The most muscular boy immediately stood up from his seat.
"The task of protecting Mr. Qin is left to you. Can you complete it?"
Liu Xiaohu's face showed a serious look, and he patted his chest fiercely: "Don't worry, sir, I promise to complete the task! If anyone bullies Mr. Qin, I...I will beat him!"
------
------
"Hello Mr. Qin!"
Seeing the naughty children standing neatly and respectfully paying homage to her as a disciple, the girl finally felt relieved.
After walking out of the school, Li Yi turned to look at the girl and said with a smile: "These children will be handed over to you from now on. The teacher's regular money is one tael of silver per month, and I will ask Xiaohuan to send it to you.
"
The girl was stunned for a moment when she heard this. After she came to her senses, she hurriedly said: "Absolutely not, I, I don't want any money. Besides, there are never any teachers in the school..."
"It will be there from now on."
Li Yi waved his hand and left with a smile before she finished speaking.
The girl stared blankly at his back as he walked away, feeling uneasy. After a long time, she sighed and turned around and walked into the school.
