Reborn in the 60s and adopted

The weather gradually became hotter after the spring planting, and Aunt Tang San did not allow Tang Mei to go out to work during the day.

In addition to Tang Mei's regular boxing practice at home every morning, Wang Ran gave her a new task, asking her to simulate Wang Ran's stick drawings every day.

Tang Mei also knew that Wang Ran was doing this for her own good, and she also believed that she should learn more than in her previous life, so she cherished this opportunity very much.

That evening, after Pei Yanyan and Wang Ran got off work with Aunt Tang San, Pei Yanyan sat under the stove in a daze.

"Hey, Wang Zhiqing, what is Pei Zhiqing thinking about?" Aunt Tang asked curiously.

"I don't know, but today I heard from the aunties in the village that our village is going to build a primary school?" Wang Ran asked.

"I've heard of this, too. I think it's pretty close." Aunt Tang San followed the two educated youths to work and learned some idioms from them, and she used them quite well.

"Hey, what can I say?" Wang Ran, who was picking vegetables, came close to Aunt Tang San.

"This news should have been spread by the village chief's daughter-in-law. Doesn't she have a younger brother who graduated from junior high school a long time ago? I guess the news spread when she went to tell her brother." Aunt Tang guessed.

Wang Ran nodded in agreement. Aunt Tang San usually didn't like gossiping, but people who couldn't stand it liked to chat with her because they thought she was tight-lipped.

After everyone finished their work and dinner was ready, Pei Yanyan went back to her room, took out the rice cake that Tang Li had sent her today, and went out.

Soon we arrived at the village chief's house.

When the village head's wife heard a knock on the door, she opened it and saw that it was the best-looking educated youth.

"Oh, it's Pei Zhiqing. What wind brings you here?" The village chief's wife smiled even more happily when she saw Pei Zhiqing still holding something in his hand.

"Aunt, I'm here to see the village chief. Is he here?" Pei Yanyan put the rice cake in her hand into the hands of the village chief's wife.

"I'm here, old man, someone's looking for you." The village head's wife shook the rice cake in her hand, which weighed more than two kilograms. Hey, this educated youth is really generous.

"Who's looking for me?" the village chief came out of the house.

"I, Pei Yanyan." Pei Yanyan saw the village chief coming out and hurried forward.

"Oh, it's Pei Zhiqing. What's the matter?" The village chief looked at the educated youth who disliked his ox cart when they met for the first time, and his voice had a bit of annoyance.

"Well, no matter what Pei Zhiqing wants to say, go inside and talk first. Go inside quickly." The village head's wife looked at her old man with an unhappy face, so she had to push Pei Yanyan into the house enthusiastically.

"You're welcome, auntie."

"Hurry up and sit down, hurry up and sit down." The village chief's wife wiped the non-existent dust on the stool with her sleeves.

"Okay, thank you auntie, you can sit down too." Pei Yanyan.

"Hey" the village chief's wife sat next to the village chief.

The village chief wanted to cover his eyes when he saw how attentive his wife was. It was too unbearable to watch.

"Ahem, Pei Zhiqing, tell me what's the matter?" asked the village chief.

"I heard that we are going to build a village primary school?" Pei Yanyan asked directly.

"···" The village chief had never seen such a direct person. Didn't she see that he was unhappy? He didn't even try to calm the atmosphere and comfort the old man. "Yes, the higher authorities are planning to build a primary school. In the past, it was all private schools. Later, if the villagers wanted to study, they had to go to the town. This time, the town decided to build a primary school based on the population of the village, combining two or three brigades. Fortunately, our village was selected from several nearby villages."

"Then when will the construction start?" Pei Yanyan asked anxiously.

"Our village plans to use the house left by the former landlord as a school. It's close to the village entrance and has a large area. We are now waiting for the town to issue documents and a principal. I don't know the details."

The village chief took a puff of his cigarette and looked at Pei Zhiqing. He actually admired these two delicate female educated youths a little. When the busy farming season started, I thought they couldn't hold on. It's been several months, and he hasn't helped them change to an easier job.

"What about teachers? Are they appointed directly by the town, or are they selected from the local intellectuals?" Pei Yanyan

"The principal appoints them directly, and the teachers are selected from the knowledgeable masses." The village chief knew that Pei Yanyan was from Kyoto, so he did not hide it and told her everything.

"Then do you think Wang Zhiqing is suitable?" Pei Yanyan asked.

The village chief was a little surprised. Pei Zhiqing usually went in and out with Wang Zhiqing. Today she came to ask about teachers on her own. He thought she wanted to be a teacher herself, but he didn't expect that she was asking on behalf of Wang Zhiqing.

"Well, Pei Zhiqing, why is it Wang Zhiqing? Why doesn't she come by herself?" asked the village chief.

"She doesn't know the news yet. I just came to confirm it. Besides, she is very good at drawing. Her grades were among the best when she was in school. She also graduated from a regular high school. There is absolutely no problem for her to be a teacher." Pei Yanyan praised.

"how about you."

Pei Yanyan was stunned for a moment.

"Me, I graduated from the same school as her, and my grades were pretty good."

"Okay, I understand. You can go back first." The village chief felt that this girl was really a good person and was trustworthy.

"What about the teacher?" Pei Yanyan didn't want to leave without getting the answer she wanted.

"We'll have to wait for the documents to come down and the village leaders to hold a meeting to decide on this matter."

"Okay, I'll leave first."

Pei Yanyan walked out of the door quickly with her long legs.

The village chief's wife asked the village chief only after she couldn't see anyone.

"Old man, why didn't you agree to her?"

"You old bitch, you're very skillful in accepting gifts, but you feel uncomfortable when I ask you to serve me." The village chief said dissatisfiedly.

"The rice cakes Pei Zhiqing gave us weigh more than two kilograms. These are cakes that can be used as food." The village chief's wife muttered.

"You short-sighted woman, you are not allowed to accept gifts in the future. None of us should give in on this matter. There are so many people in these villages who are interested in the job of teacher. If you accept gifts from everyone and you are not elected, will you report it? Then my position as village chief will be over." The village chief analyzed to his wife earnestly.

"Since Pei Zhiqing had taken it, why didn't you let me return it?" The village head's wife was a little confused about her husband.

"First, she is from Kyoto. If I don't agree to her request, she will find someone higher up. I might as well accept this favor. Second, she has a good education and a good character. She will be good to children in the future. I hope that this school can be run well while I am still the village chief." After saying this, the village chief took another puff of his cigarette.

"Oh, then I should understand." The village chief's wife seemed to understand and went out to cook.
