From small town academic to chief scientist

Arriving at the door of Xia Xue's house, Zhou Yi discovered that Xia Xue's family was quite wealthy and actually built a three-story house.

Although the materials used in the house don’t look very good,

But his understanding of aesthetics is so perfect that even an aesthetic teacher like Zhou Yi, who is obsessed with mathematics, has to admire him.

The garden is full of various flowers, and the layout is very tasteful. The wintersweet blooms are also very bright this season.

But the most commonly planted flower is the peony.

Xia Xue looked at Zhou Yi with sly eyes and said:

"Senior, do you want to come in and sit down?"

Zhou Yi touched his nose and said awkwardly:

"Forget it, I'll go back first. I'll kill the New Year pig later and treat you and your uncle and aunt to eat pig-killing rice."

Why do I feel like I'm meeting my parents? I haven't fallen in love with Xia Xue yet.

Zhou Yi left with a look of embarrassment.

As soon as Xia Xue entered the door, she found her mother looking at her with a smile,

"Hey, you are asking Zhou Yi to send you back? Why don't you let him come in and sit down?"

Xia's mother on the side joked.

Only Dad Xia had a dark face and remained silent.

"Xue'er, tell dad what happened at school."

Xia Xue rolled her eyes again, and then spoke in detail.

When Zhou Yi returned home, he found that his grandfather was not at home. He must have gone to the fields. Only his grandma was at home.

At this time, grandma also noticed that someone was back, and asked in a weak voice:

"Is it Zhou Yi?"

Zhou Yi quickly walked over to grandma's bedside and said:

"It's me, Po. I'm back from vacation."

In Bashu, it is customary to call grandma "Po Po".

Grandma touched Zhou Yi's hand, and said with a long-lost smile on her wrinkled old face:

"Okay, okay, Grandpa You has gone to the fields. Come back and ask him to stew the old hens for you."

Zhouyi said:

"I'd better cook first."

Not long after, Zhou Yi came to the Zao House. The renovated Zao House was not as shaky as before, nor as dirty as before.

There are piles of firewood everywhere outside the house.

There are a lot of vegetables this season, and Zhou Yi started to cook skillfully.

Zhou Yi seemed to hear something, so he went to look at the dining table in the main room. There were only leftovers cooked in the morning and a pile of dried mustard.

Other than that, nothing.

Zhou Yi smiled bitterly. He was not at home, and the two old men were reluctant to eat seasonal vegetables.

It is estimated that grandpa did not go to the fields, but went to the town to sell vegetables.

Zhou Yi stopped cooking first.

After looking at his home, he decided to ask the village chief to find someone to renovate it.

The walls made of white plaster and many wooden walls will collapse at some point.

If the snow falls heavier, it will be very dangerous.

When it is the coldest, it will snow in Mudan Mountain, and it will snow very heavily.

Zhou Yi used to have no money and could only clean up slowly. Now Zhou Yi has more than 80,000 yuan, which is more than enough to build a red brick house.

After getting the potion, Zhou Yi didn't intend to give it to grandma directly.

Instead, I first rented a car and took my grandma to the county traditional Chinese medicine hospital to find an old Chinese medicine doctor to take her pulse, prescribe a few medicines, and then slowly incorporate the medicine into it one at a time.

Otherwise, if you take the potion directly and it will be cured immediately, it will attract people's attention and even cause unnecessary trouble.

Anyway, there is a lot of metaphysics in Chinese medicine. If you take the medicine every half month, you will be completely better a year ago.

There is also a reason to block Youyou's mouth.

There are still three days until the start of the Limei Tournament, and there is still more than half a month before the Chinese New Year. As long as you are willing to spend money, you can definitely get it done, but I don’t know how much time it will take.

After having a plan, Zhou Yi started cooking first and then contacted the village chief.

By the way, let the village chief's grandson come to make up lessons.

Things went very smoothly. With the help of money, several trucks of bricks, cement, sand and gravel were shipped on the first day.

The village chief also hired the workers, and when Zhou Yi was not tutoring the village chief's grandson, he personally helped build the house.

Such a big move by Zhou Yi must have attracted the attention of many people.

People in the village were basically discussing where Zhou Yi got the money.

Grandpa Zhou Yi was also very frightened. How could a college student get so much money?

If we continue doing this all at once, I'm afraid 50,000 to 60,000 yuan will be spent.

Moreover, it is still the end of the year, workers’ wages are also high, and it is difficult to find people.

Fortunately, Xia Xue helped promote it.

Zhou Yi won two national championships and received many scholarships.

The two champions also allowed Zhou Yi to pay 500 yuan an hour for make-up classes in educational institutions.

When these news spread, people in several surrounding villages were so envious that their eyes almost popped out of their heads.

There is more acidic water in the stomach than the water in the Yangtze River.

People who used to speak ill of Zhou Yi are now filled with regret.

This week Yi is on his way out. Thinking about the sarcastic words he said before, he couldn't help but secretly regret it.

Only the village chief laughed. Zhou Yi paid 500 yuan for a class and gave his grandson two hours of tutoring for twenty days.

Didn’t he make 20,000 in vain?

After all, he is the village head, and he also knows the market for tutoring by famous teachers in big cities. A top student from a prestigious school like Zhou Yi, coupled with the gold content of two national championships,

It's quite high.

Moreover, Zhou Yi is a very wise man. He speaks like a village chief and is highly respected.

When has this village chief been so respected by such a strong scholar in so many years?

I have been recognized by the National Double Crown, which is embarrassing to say.

Fortunately, the village chief is also a human being and knew that Zhou Yi's relationship with the village was not very good. After some operations,

He found Zhou Yi and said:

"Zhou Yi, don't go and help build a house now. People in the village are ready to help you when they hear that you want to build a house."

Zhou Yi had a face full of cement at the moment, holding bricks in both hands, and looked at the village chief in confusion,

"Ah? What's going on?"

The village chief said:

"Everyone sees that you are tutoring my grandson, and you also want to tutor their children. I made statistics and found that almost all of them are students from the second grade of junior high school to the third grade of junior high school, and there are also many students who are about to graduate from the third grade of junior high school.

You see, these children all hope to go to high school or lay a good foundation. We are all neighbors in the countryside. Look at this."

Zhou Yi actually wanted to refuse, but the village chief said again:

"You will definitely have to be away from home all the time in the future. Your grandparents are getting older. If you are not at home if there is a problem, it is not for the folks in the village to help. Let the past grievances be over. It is better to dissolve enemies than to end them. Why not take advantage of this opportunity? ?”

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"Okay, the village chief is right. Let all their children come. I will teach math in the morning and physics and English in the afternoon. It can be considered as doing something for the folks in the village."

That's true. I didn't have much hatred before. I just said that I was unforgiving, and I didn't do anything to benefit myself at the expense of others.

If the grandparents really have a problem, as the village chief said, it will be these villagers who will help.

They only yelled loudly, but if there was really something going on at home, they would still yell and help at the same time.

Human relationships are cold and warm, and the world is like this. Even the current Zhou Yi does not have the absolute strength to break these things.

Besides, I just attended a few junior high school classes.

Nothing to lose.

The next day, there were indeed seven or eight more children in the morning, but there were also more people helping Zhou Yi's family build a house.

If we don't cover it in this weather, it will be even more difficult to operate if it snows later.

Suddenly, there were more than ten people from the previous three or four people, and the progress of building the house was greatly accelerated.

Years ago, it would definitely be completed. After all, the house is not large, only about a hundred square meters. There is no second floor, only the first floor. The house has been renovated before, and the amount of work is not large.

Zhou Yi can feel at ease only when his family affairs are taken care of.

In the next two days, there were not only more people helping, but also more aunts helping with cooking, all praising Zhou Yi.

They say that this child will definitely have a future, but they used to look down on others.

Not only did he apologize to Zhou Yi, he also took the initiative to send a lot of fruits, vegetables, chicken, duck, and fish.

This also made Zhou Yi feel less worried.

Don't hit the smiling person, everyone knows this.

All these status benefits, in addition to the aura of the school, also have the impact of the class fees earned by double crown students attending classes in institutions.

Everything comes from strength.

But what Zhou Yi didn't expect was that Xia Xue's parents used to be professors at the liberal arts college of a university. They later resigned and went into seclusion and came here.

No wonder Xia Xue's propaganda effect is so great. It's hard to imagine the awe that ordinary villagers have for their teachers. And when a university professor comes to Mudan Village to live in seclusion, he looks like an expert hermit at first glance.

I have to say that this village chief is really good at finding out things like this.

The village chief secretly said to Zhou Yi in the kitchen:

"There's no gossip in the whole village that I don't know."
