Under normal circumstances, the bicycle speed is about three times the walking speed, that is to say, under normal circumstances, ten minutes is enough for Chen Yu to ride to the town.

The actual situation is still somewhat different. First, he brought people, one big and one small together are not bad for an adult; second, the road conditions are bad, and the speed cannot be raised, and it took more than 20 minutes to reach the destination.

Before the restructuring, Hongqi Town was called Hongqi Commune. There was a primary school and a junior high school in the town. Huniu went to school in Hongqi Town Primary School. Shen Tao and Dong Sanlin both studied in the town.

The two schools are connected together, Chen Yu went into the town, he was not in a hurry to go shopping, he said he wanted to see the school, so Huniu pointed the way for him.

The town is not big, even small, and I found two connected schools within six or seven minutes by bike.

The primary school is surrounded by a low earthen wall, while the secondary school wall has been puttyed, and the wall skin is mottled and peeled off, and there are various stains and water stains.

The gate was locked, Chen Yu pushed the car around, seemed to see that he wanted to go in and have a look, Dong Sanlin hesitated, and called to Chen Yu: "Come with me."

He took Chen Yu to a big tree outside the town. This tree had lush branches and thick branches. Because it was so close, some of the branches directly extended into the wall.

Dong Sanlin said in a muffled voice, "You can turn in from here."

Chen Yu has weird eyes, how does this kid know so much about where the school wall is easy to break?

Dong Sanlin lowered his head to avoid his sight, and his voice was still muffled: "Can you climb trees? Otherwise, step on my shoulder, and I will ask you to go up."

Chen Yu felt that he would.

Wouldn't it be difficult for him to climb over a wall and climb a tree?

He parked the bicycle against the wall for Huniu to watch. Chen Yu rubbed his hands and started to climb the tree.

He didn't plan to turn it in, he just had a look at the school inside and had other ideas.

Dong Sanlin stretched his arms and held them underneath, for fear that the fish would fall.

Fortunately, nothing happened, Chen Yu successfully climbed up the big tree, condescending, able to get an overview of the school inside the wall.

From the perspective of architecture and facilities, this school is really poor and dilapidated. The two rows of houses are in the shape of a lying "L", and the long row is very long. Chen Yu has good eyesight and can see that the houses are different from old to new. It shouldn't be Covered at the same time period.

The oldest one is the old house with the thatch exposed in the adobe, the newer one has smooth walls and putty, and the rest are brick houses.

The short side of the "L" is still a two-story building. It should be newly built in recent years. It is still relatively new, and the walls are very clean.

There is nothing to say about the playground. It is a mud playground. The house cannot be completely covered with bricks and tiles, let alone the playground.

There are two basketball hoops on the playground. The whole structure is made of wood. Two logs are driven into the ground, and a backboard is fixed on the top, which is the basketball hoop.

There are also two ping-pong tables in the corner, near the big tree that the sinking fish climbed up.

The platform built of stone should be supported by cement boards, and the corners are very damaged, and the square shape can barely be seen.

How should I put it, before Chen Yu watched various news on TV, and he did not miss reports on aiding the construction of the Hope Primary School. He had never seen such a dilapidated school.

He slipped down from the tree and asked Dong Sanlin, "What are those two floors for?"

Dong Sanlin didn't understand why Chen Yu was interested in his school, and he didn't know why he was asking these questions, so he said honestly: "It's the classroom."

"Oh?" Chen Yu became interested: "Where are the other houses?"

Dong Sanlin started school in the second year of junior high school. Before his mother remarried, even food was a problem at home. Naturally, there was no money to send them to study.

Neither brother nor sister ever went to school. Later, when the village divided the fields, there was some surplus food. His mother sold the food and sent him to school.

When his mother agreed to remarry, she made an agreement with the Shen family that she would continue to send him to study, and the Shen family did not stop her. The stepfather said that he would go to college wherever he could go, and he would go to college if he could go to college. .

His mother told him that it was all for this, and he had to respect his stepfather as his own father in the future.

Dong Sanlin didn't know how to get along with Chen Yu, and he couldn't speak well, so he could only flatter Chen Yu with clumsy means. He would do whatever Chen Yu asked him to do, and he would honestly tell him anything asked.

"The small building is the classroom, the far right is also the classroom, the one connected to it is the dormitory, and the two next to it are the cafeteria..."

As he said, Chen Yu compared with what he saw just now, the more he listened to it, the more interesting he found it.

"...and then the principal and the teacher's office."

Chen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Which ones are the worst?"

Dong Sanlin nodded, then shook his head: "The worst room is not used by anyone, it's for storing sundries."

The sundries must be broken tables, chairs, benches and the like. It is impossible to put books and sundries there because they will be damp.

Chen Yu: "..."

According to Shen Sanlin, the best houses in the school are all classrooms, followed by student dormitories.

Chen Yu felt that Shangkanzi Village was too remote, far away from the town and the county seat. He was thinking too much, and he hadn't seen anything further away. At least he came from the village, and he didn't have to climb the mountains. It only took four to ten minutes to walk. about.

If you think about it carefully, if it is decades later, the village where the aunt lives is only ten minutes away from Hongqi Town, and it will most likely be included in the township in the future.

Shangkanzi Village is similar to the outskirts of the town, the kind that can be reached directly by bus.

But now, the infrastructure and transportation facilities are still far behind. It is said that the country is carrying out infrastructure construction. Even if it is, it will not be able to turn to the countryside for a while.

So Shangkanzi Village is really not too far away. Everyone thinks it’s not a problem to walk forty minutes to go to school. The children of the Shen family who go to school in the town, including the son of cousin Chen Yu, are two years younger than Huniu. When I was [-] years old, I always got up early in the morning and walked with my classmates for nearly an hour to go to school.

But what about those who live farther away?If there is a school in a nearby village, you can only go to that school to study, but generally there are only village primary schools, and there are very few junior high schools.

Take Xiakanzi Village, where Shen’s second aunt’s family is located, as an example. It takes more than half an hour to climb a mountain from Shen’s house. People in the village are used to walking on mountain roads.

This is normal. If you encounter rain and snow, think about how difficult the mountain road is.

As far as this is concerned, Xiakanzi Village is not the most remote. When Shen Yu asked this, Dong Sanlin said that he knew it. He had a classmate who really lived in the deep mountains. Now no one has electricity, and he is the only one in the whole village. I have to walk five or six hours to go home during the holidays.

Therefore, it is very necessary for the school to have a student dormitory. Without a dormitory, these children who live far away cannot go to school normally.

Schools are like this, and it is impossible to expect good accommodation conditions, let alone six-person rooms and eight-person rooms, a dormitory can sleep about [-] students, with canopy beds and Chase bunks.

Residential students can bring mats in summer, and quilts in winter, and just bring a bed, because even if it is a single canopy bed, two students sleep squeezed together.

One person's quilt is used for padding, and the other's quilt is used for covering, which is just right.

"There is a bed-wetting king in our class, no one sleeps with him!" Hu Niu squatted down and listened for a long time, and couldn't help interrupting.

That's right, the elementary school next door also has a dormitory, but the dormitory is a little less than that of the middle school.

Chen Yu asked, the youngest boarding student is seven years old, he does everything at school by himself, washes clothes by himself, eats... eats in the school cafeteria.

It is said to be a canteen, but it is actually one or two kitchens. Day students can eat at home sooner or later, and they can bring their own food or hand it over to school at noon.

After eating, I eat on the playground. If it rains, I take it back to the classroom to eat.

Huniu and Dong Sanlin actively provided information to him. The children of the Shen family brought their own in the summer—after all, their own food is better than that of the school. It is usually steamed buns and pickles, which are easy to carry, occasionally steamed buns, and sometimes a boiled egg.

Among the day students, the standard of food is above average.

In winter, I can only pay food to the school and eat in the cafeteria. After all, the food I bring at home must be cold by noon.

Because the home is far away, the resident students only go home once in half a month or a month. They bring food and bring a bottle of pickles or bean paste, which is a month's meal.

"Principal Li brought the teachers to plant vegetables, and sometimes there is free vegetable soup to drink." When Dong Sanlin talked about the school, it was a simple statement. He had no talent for storytelling, but even so, Shen Yu still listened to it in his heart Not very comfortable.

The school he attended was the high school attached to the factory area. In the provincial capital, the high school attached to the factory is actually better than many schools in the urban area, because the factory has money and is willing to use the money to build the school.

The teaching building of their school has several floors, and all the necessary facilities are available.

Later, when I went to Mingzhu City, I heard from Chen Meili that her current school had better conditions, and it was no worse than the school Chen Yu attended before crossing.

Before going back to the village to build a school, he wanted to give back to the village. He was just an ordinary person without lofty thoughts.

But now he is not short of money, and the funds belonging to him in the account are skyrocketing every day. He has not played the money counting game that he likes for a long time. If there is too much money, he will lose the fun of counting money.

I have to do something, Chen Yu thought.

He doesn't have such a big ideal, how many people he wants to help change the fate of others, and he doesn't plan to donate all his money to charity.

But when I saw it, I felt uncomfortable, so I stretched out my hand.

Not for anything else, but for my own peace of mind.

The follow-up poverty alleviation and teaching assistant activities can also continue. He earns so much money, there is no shortage of houses, the car was given by his boyfriend, and the booming career is constantly making money for him. It is good to spend money to buy yourself happiness.

However, Chen Yu would rather trouble about this matter and spend money to hire someone to do it than donate the money directly.

"Let's go." Thinking of how to spend the money, Chen Yu was in a good mood, and his steps were a little brisk.

"Ah? Oh." Huniu leaned against the wall and almost fell asleep. She didn't know what was going on with her brother. She suddenly wanted to hear about the school, and she stopped talking, as if she was thinking about something, but she didn't dare bother him.

"Brother, what do you ask our school to do?" Hu Niu was still a little curious, and Dong Sanlin was also curious, but he didn't dare to ask.

Chen Yu asked without answering: "Do you like your school? Do you like the principal, teachers and classmates?"

Huniu pursed her mouth and struggled for a while. Although she would be punished by the teacher to stand if she didn't do her homework, the teacher was still a good person. She knew that the teacher would distribute her meals to classmates who were not full.

"I like it..." Hu Niu twitched.

"I like it too." Dong Sanlin rarely took the initiative to say: "The principal is a good person."

Chen Yu also thinks that the principal is a good principal. The best house is used as a classroom, and the worst one is used as his office. Chen Yu has never met such a principal.

"Where are we going now? Go shopping at the supply and marketing agency?" Huniu didn't really want to mention school, and when it came to school, she thought of homework.

She is still young and has little experience. She doesn’t think there is any problem with walking for more than 40 minutes to school, and she doesn’t think it’s bad for her to eat cold steamed buns and pickles for lunch. She can bring as much as she can. The meals brought by my classmates are not enough!

"Go to the post office first." Shen Qiao should have settled down by now, so don't make any calls...

He went wherever he said, and Dong Sanlin took him to the post office again. Chen Yu paid for the call, and it was said that the call was to the capital, and the post office staff gave him a few extra glances.

After switching back and forth, I don't know how many times, and finally connected.

The moment she heard Shen Qiao's voice, Chen Yu was in a daze for a moment, it was only a few days since we parted, so it seemed like a long time had passed.

There was no sound here, Shen Qiao paused, and raised his voice: "Little fish?"

"It's me." Chen Yu came back to his senses, with a smile on his face, and his voice relaxed: "How is your side? Are you used to eating and living?"

Shen Qiao said frankly: "I'm not used to it, you're not here."

Chen Yu coughed lightly, his eyes were erratic, there are so many people there.

Worried about what Shen Qiao would say again, Chen Yu quickly changed the topic, and briefly talked about her experiences in the past few days.

It was all trivial matters, and Shen Qiao listened with relish. He liked that Chen Yu told him the things he had experienced in detail.

But listening to it, Shen Qiao felt a little awkward, and when he finished speaking, he said quietly: "I had a good time..."

Look at what he is proud of, the whole family is holding it, he listens to what he eats and drinks, and he even runs to catch some crayfish. Haven't you thought about the lonely boyfriend in the distance?

Chen Yu was keenly aware of the bad tone in his tone, and immediately the alarm bell rang out. She couldn't be coaxed right now, so Shen Qiao ran over to find him for such a thing if she really did it.

But in front of so many people, asking him to say nice words to coax people, wouldn't it be troublesome?

Shen Yu's eyeballs rolled around, he couldn't find the right words for a while, Shen Qiao didn't say a word, he could feel the air pressure in Shen Qiao getting lower and lower through the phone.

"Then what..." Chen Yu had an idea: "Brother, you went to the capital, help me say a few words to my partner!"

Shen Qiao: "...What are you talking about?"

After all, in front of so many people, as well as younger siblings, Chen Yu was embarrassed, and said vaguely: "I just... I miss him a lot, I have a lot of people, so I will tell him next time I meet, anyway... Anyway Just tell him, I miss him in my heart..."

Shen Qiao: "..."

Holding back her shame to say such a big deal, but did not get a response, Chen Yu was a little annoyed, and her tone became fierce: "Did you hear that, can you help me with a message?!"

On the other end of the phone, Shen Qiao's voice smiled: "I heard, I met your partner today, and he said he misses you too, very much."

Chen Yu's ears were hot, and he was silent for a long time before he replied dryly: "Oh."

In order to avoid talking about some unsustainable topics, Chen Yu resolutely changed the topic and asked about serious matters. What's going on with Shen Qiao is still unknown.

After Shen Qiao finished speaking in a few words, it was nothing more than that he had already arrived in the capital, and then went to work.

It's not that he didn't want to say it, he felt that there was nothing to say.

Could it be that he went back to the house assigned by the research institute at night, it was boring to be alone alone, and he ran back to disassemble the machine in the middle of the night, and was almost caught as a thief?

Impossible to say, too embarrassing.

The two chatted for a while, Chen Yu remembered the idea that came up just now, hesitated for a moment, and asked Shen Qiao for help, asking him to help introduce an available person who can deal with the government and handle donation matters.

Originally, his idea was relatively simple. Whether it was building roads or building a school, he mainly focused on Shangkanzi Village. He built a road leading to the outside world from Shangkanzi Village, and then built a primary school in the village.

As for the lack of teachers, I believe that as long as the salary is sufficient, there should be unemployed educated young people in counties or towns who are willing to be teachers.

It's just that, if that's the case, he just needs to talk to the village chief.

Chen Yu had already asked Grandpa Shen about the village head of Shangkanzi Village. According to Grandpa Shen's description, he was not a particularly capable person. He had never done anything commendable, but he had never done anything bad either. A troublesome village cadre.

But Chen Yu wants to build roads and build elementary schools, this is not causing trouble.

For road construction, you have to apply for a report with your superiors. If you are not allowed to approve funds, there is no reason not to agree.

There is no need to worry about the school. The village head can decide to build a school in the village and build a school building on a plot of land.

If you don't need to transfer a teacher from above, but recruit yourself, the process is very simple. You only need to report and do not need to apply.

Therefore, Chen Yu came here alone, without thinking about any interaction with other leaders, he only planned to find the village chief of Shangkanzi Village.

As for whether the village head would agree, he could only agree.

As long as you are not stupid, you will know that these two things are good things that benefit the villagers.Even if he was really out of his mind and didn't want to agree, or wanted to do some tricks, the villagers who knew the news would be able to blow him up.

At that time, the money will be placed with his grandfather, and his grandfather will supervise how much it will cost.

After dealing with him several times, Chen Yu found that his grandfather was very reliable in his work, and the old man loved his reputation, so it would be more face to entrust this kind of matter to him.

Today I came to the town mainly to call Shen Qiao, and buy some things to go back. When I was leaving to see the school, I asked about Hu Niu's homework.

Seeing this, he changed his mind.

Just building a primary school in Shangkanzi Village doesn't seem to be of great significance. It may make it easier for the village and other children to go to school, but that's all.

Unless he spends a lot of effort and spends more money to recruit better teachers to teach in the countryside, and the follow-up management has to follow up.

But if this is the case, why doesn't he just send the Shen family's children to a better school, maybe it will cost less.

After seeing these two schools just now, and listening to Dong Sanlin and Huniu talk about the situation, Chen Yu came up with an idea, maybe he can directly donate money to the town and the town to expand the school building, improve the teaching environment, and improve the quality of life for the students. Quality of Life.

Not to mention letting the children eat meat every meal, at least the children from poor families can have enough food.

Now the price of rice is only about [-] cents, and one catty of rice can yield two catties of rice. If a child eats it openly, it is great to be able to eat one catty of rice a day, and it only costs more than ten cents.

Excluding holidays, calculated on the basis of 40 days a year, it only costs more than [-] yuan to feed a child all-you-can-eat with white rice.

Of course, the funding for school construction is another calculation. If you want to support students, it is definitely not for everyone, and it does not mean that he will take care of all the children's meals in the future.

If this is the case, all the children can be sent here in the future, and they can eat for free. The tuition fee is only a few yuan a semester, and they can eat all the food.

Another thing that impresses Chen Yu is that the school has a good principal and a good manager, so he doesn't need to recruit another teacher, which saves trouble.

We haven't met each other yet, so we need to inquire about the specific situation, but for now, the impression of Principal Li on Chen Yu is very good, and he is a person worthy of admiration.

These are all issues that need to be carefully considered. What needs to be resolved now is that if he wants to donate to build two schools in the town, he must contact the local officials. These are two public schools.

In this way, it is not enough to rely on the careless village head of Kanzi Village, and he cannot manage the school in the town.

That's why Chen Yu asked Shen Qiao for help. He wouldn't have a lot of time to stay here to deal with follow-up issues. Shen Qiao was considered a half-official, so it was easier for him to find the right person if he spoke.

Chen Yu still has the idea of ​​continuing to donate to build the school, if it is more appropriate to find a dedicated person.

There were a lot of difficult things to say on the phone, and he didn't speak very clearly, but Shen Qiao knew the purpose of his coming back, and after hearing him say that he needed a special person to deal with the change of public school, he quickly understood what he meant.

"Understood, I'll send people to pass." Shen Qiao agreed very simply.

"There may be similar activities in the future, and a full-time person is needed, and I will pay a reasonable remuneration." Chen Yu emphasized.

The two chatted casually for a few more words, and Chen Yu found that the post office staff looked at him strangely, reluctantly said goodbye to her boyfriend, and hung up the phone.

A phone call cost more than ten yuan, and the post office staff were stupid. Whose family is this a prodigal child? After making a long-winded phone call, half a month's salary was lost.

"Wait in a hurry, let's go, go to the supply and marketing cooperative, get what you want, brother will pay for you." Chen Yu is very rich.

Dong Sanlin opened and closed his mouth, and it was obvious that he hesitated to speak.

Huniu didn't have so many scruples, and she wanted to ask: "Brother Maoer, are you in love?"

"It's done." Chen Yu replied very straightforwardly.

It is impossible to declare Shen Qiao's identity openly, but it is a fact that Shen Qiao is his object.

Huniu: "..."

She just wanted to ask if Uncle San knew, but after thinking about it again, Uncle Mao and Sister couldn't control Big Brother Mao'er!

"Is your partner good-looking? Is it as good-looking as you?" Hu Niu couldn't help asking.

Her brother is so handsome, if you find an ugly one, thanks.

"It's pretty, it's as good-looking as me." Chen Yu boasted brazenly, bragging with himself brazenly.

Hu Niu was a little dumbfounded, what a beautiful sister she must be!

"Finished?"

"No, no, do you want to donate money to our school?" Hu Niu asked curiously.

"I have this idea, what do you think?"

"I think it's okay!" Hu Niu actively suggested to Chen Yu: "You can donate chalks. There was a kind person who donated ten boxes of chalks to our school, and a box of colored ones. Our teacher was very happy."

The more I talked, the more I felt the idea was good, "Do you know where chalk is sold? I'll take you there. How many boxes do you want to donate? Eleven boxes is okay? One box more than the person last time!"

Chen Yu: "..."
