Chapter 44 Too Poor

Gu Lin turned his head: "It's good luck that we made so much money at once today! If it weren't for that person, we might only have sold a catty of eggs!"

"Don't think that money is easy to earn. While my mother and I are not paying attention, sneak to the town to earn money!"

"In case something happens to you, my mother and I can't help you!"

Zhou Laiqian was so guilty that he didn't dare to look at his sister-in-law.

Why is this woman so powerful.

When he was sleeping last night, he really thought about it.

He is the only man in the family now, and this woman won't let him work in the brick factory, so he can only think of other ways.

Gu Lin lowered his head, not seeing Zhou Laiqian's guilty conscience.

She continued: "You don't think it's strange, he just bought our eggs in the morning and came to the village in the afternoon!"

"Look at him wearing a military coat and black leather shoes, and riding a [-] pole. What do you think he does?"

Zhou Lai Qian's heart thumped twice.

He murmured for a long time, carefully expressing his guess: "Couldn't he be from the Public Security Bureau?"

"I don't know!" Gu Lin said: "Even if it's not from the Public Security Bureau, it should be from the state! I don't know if we sell eggs today, it's speculative, anyway, be careful!"

"Don't run out these two days. If you meet that person again one day, dodge if you can, and try not to let him recognize you if you can't!"

This is the only way Gu Lin can think of at the moment.

She now hopes that the village chief will not come to her later, and even more hope that that person will never appear in the village again.

After Zhang Guixiang came back, Gu Lin casually talked about what happened today, and also reminded him about the surname Lu.

In order to prevent Zhang Guixiang from falling asleep in fear, she didn't make the matter so serious.

However, Zhang Guixiang is easy to let things go.

Although Gu Lin said it was easy, Zhang Guixiang was still scared.

Before Lu Yan knew that he was recognized, he and Qian Jianguo went back to the village and talked about the village for a while.

Qian Jianguo was afraid that the new secretary would have a bad impression of Wangshui Village because of what happened just now.

As long as it can involve the matter just now, he will say a few words.

He is measured and doesn't talk too much to be annoying.

Qian Jianguo poured a glass of water for the new secretary with a large ceramic jar from the village department. Lu Yanzhi glanced at it but didn't move.

"Is your water like this?" he asked.

How can such water be eaten.

Qian Jianguo scratched his head in embarrassment: "Well, the secretary may not understand well, not only our place, but the whole town drink this kind of water!

"We depend on the sky for our food. Every household has a large water cellar, where rainwater and snowwater are stored. If there is a lot of rainwater, there is enough water for food. If there is little rainwater, we need to save some food!"

Lu Yan frowned, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

Although he had been here for a short time, the situation here was even worse than he had imagined.

It can even be said to be ridiculously bad.

His heart was heavy.

Qian Jianguo felt that the new secretary did not look like the guy from the Northwest, and he couldn't guess where he was from.

I dare not persuade people to drink water, let alone tell people to eat.

Find something to talk about if you have nothing to say.

Qian Jianguo thought for a while, and then said: "Secretary, why don't we go to the school to have a look! Our school is not too far from the village head. After you finish reading it in a while, you can go back directly from the school!"

"it is good!

Qian Jianguo took Lu Yan to school.

When the two arrived at school, they happened to encounter a big break, and not many children were playing on the playground.

When Qian Jianguo saw those children, he felt that he had seen the hope of the village.

He introduced to the new secretary: "Secretary, this school is shared by several nearby villages! Some of the teachers in the school are substitutes who are recruited by literate people from various villages, and there are a few older ones who are assigned by the superiors. !"

"In the past, there were educated youths who came to support education, because we have good conditions here, and there have been no educated youths to support education for several years!"

After scanning around, Lu Yan got a general understanding of the school's situation.

"Let's go to the classroom and the teacher's office!"

Qian Jianguo took him to the classroom first: "Because there are few dolls studying here, children aged [-], [-], and [-] are all taught in the same classroom, and they are also taught by the same teacher!
"The [-]th and [-]th graders are in another classroom and the desks have been used for years!

Lu Yan was speechless.

A frown can kill flies.

Qian Jianguo took the new secretary to see the classroom, then the teacher's office, and the classroom that had just been cleaned up and prepared to be used as a dormitory for the students.

After listening to Qian Jianguo's words, Lu Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Didn't the higher authorities allocate money to your school?"

"Schools in the town will only pay a little money every two years. It would be great if our rural schools can pay the substitute teacher's salary on time!"

"The classrooms in your school are dangerous buildings to be precise. There are cracks in the walls of all your rooms. Once there is a strong wind and heavy rain, children and teachers will be in danger!"

"There are also those desks that are useless, and I may not be able to do other things. I will find a way to get you some new desks and textbooks when I go back!"

Qian Jianguo's eyes lit up.

He smiled from ear to ear: "Then I will thank the secretary for the dolls and teachers of the school first!"

"Secretary, you see that you can even find a way to get a desk, can you get some clothes and shoes for these dolls?"

Qian Jianguo led Lu Yan to the flagpole, pointed to the children running and playing, and said, "It's not completely warm yet, and those dolls are wearing open-toed shoes!"

"Secretary, how much do you know about us? We are too poor here. The clothes of the dolls are not worn by the adults in the family. If you have shoes, you can wear them, and if you don't have them, you don't wear them!"

Lu Yan was silent, looking at the children on the playground with deep eyes.

It is said to be a playground, but it is just a small piece of fairly flat land.

The children are dirt when they run.

Qian Jianguo suddenly saw Zhou Xiaojuan, pointed to Zhou Xiaojuan and said, "Secretary, did you see that little girl in a rose-red padded jacket with two long braids?

Lu Yan found it soon.

"Um!

"That girl's name is Zhou Xiaojuan, she is the youngest child of the Zhou family's second bedroom we just went to! Xiaojuan is in the first grade this year, and her eldest brother died, so we thought she would stop studying!"

"Why did you read this again?"

Qian Jianguo originally wanted to introduce to the new secretary, but he was confused instead.

He shouted: "Zhou Xiaojuan!"

Zhou Xiaojuan, who was kicking the shuttlecock, saw the village chief calling her, and ran over quickly.

"Uncle, you call me!"

Qian Jianguo asked her: "Didn't your second brother say that you stopped studying? Why are you here to study again? When did you come? Your mother asked you to study?"

Zhou Xiaojuan's big eyes flickered.

"It's my sister-in-law! My sister-in-law persuaded my mother and my second brother to let me study. My sister-in-law told me to study hard and read as far as I could. She also said that reading is my only way out!"

 Babies, is anyone watching?
