Although it was a rare opportunity for Chen Muneng to participate, it was even more amazing that he passed the assessment!

Considering the risks that may be caused by outside discussions, the Chen family returned home with their children.

After entering, Xiao Yun gently reminded: "Xiao Xiaomu, even if you have successfully obtained permission to participate in the banquet, please don't relax.

"

Not knowing how to start the conversation, she carefully placed the child on the sofa and used her body to prevent him from falling.

Hearing this, Chen Mu nodded slightly in response. He understood the matter without needing to be reminded. After all, any mistake at the banquet could bring disaster to the entire family.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the end of summer and the students' summer vacation is approaching.

One day after school, Ran Qiuye, who never liked to come to Chen's former residence, unexpectedly flew over to visit, claiming that the purpose of this trip was to collect semester funds for "Ganzi".

Their class is quite special. The students include both wealthy and ordinary people, and there is no shortage of students who are under great financial pressure.

Many students in this class come from financially strapped families, so every time he collects fees, Ran Qiuye still has to visit various places no matter how reluctant he is.

The target this time is this restaurant called "Banggeng", and the host is Banggeng himself.

When he met the teacher, Gan Geng was a little surprised, but then he realized that this visit was probably related to this: the last time he came to the teacher because he failed to pay tuition on time, the situation was surprisingly similar to this time.

Seeing the pole again, the teacher was not surprised and just smiled.

"Student Gan Geng, did you remember what the teacher told you before going to school? Is your mother home?"

Upon hearing this, Gan Geng nodded and admitted that he knew, and then answered the question:

"Hello, my mother is not home.

Currently, there is only grandma at home.

If you want, I can ask grandma to lead the way.

"

When Ran Qiuye heard that Jia Zhang was the only one left at home, the corners of his lips twitched slightly unconsciously.

She didn't mean that.

Discussed tuition and miscellaneous fees with Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang was born with a strong character like strong liquor. In the past, she had caused quite a stir in the academy and left a deep impression on people.

However, for the tuition fee, although she felt a little reluctant in her heart, she still smiled and nodded, and bravely took this step.

After entering the inner room, I saw Jia Zhang concentrating on sewing pairs of small shoe uppers.

"Oh, is that our teacher Liu? Why are you so busy coming to our house today?"

After greeting him, Jia Zhang noticed that the visitor was still standing there, so she frowned and asked in a low voice, "Teacher Liu, go get a stool for you, don't stand there in a daze.

"

Jia Zhang's sudden voice made the two of them panic.

In a short while, Gan Geng found a chair from another room and placed it next to the two of them.

I had been having some strange questions about the pole for some time, but now I suddenly understood.

What we saw was that Jia Zhang handled the children's affairs in the form of teaching. This method immediately demonstrated the effect of majesty. How could the athletes not be intimidated?

After a few pleasantries, the business slowly began. She said in a negotiating tone:

"Speaking of which, Aunt Jia, I came to your house today to collect the end-of-term tuition for my nickname 'Jia Geng'.

As you know, this fee is due at the end of each term; so, could you please——"

"You don't need to tell me about this. You should wait until Xiao Huairu comes home before telling me the details.

"There was a hint of coldness in her words, but she did not show any impatience on the surface," As for spending money, it is not my responsibility, so you just need to be patient for now.

"

Realizing that this visit was not a simple communication between home and school but an attempt to collect fees, Jia Zhang's attitude instantly turned cold. The resistance in her heart was obvious in her expression. Although she did not say anything strong to directly refuse admission, her words showed her dissatisfaction.

Without asking others what they thought of her action, she just busied herself with knitting with fine stitches.

It seemed as if even the look in his eyes was conveying a refusal to communicate.

Seeing this scene, Ran Qiuye was filled with sadness.

When teachers visit students' homes, they are often respected and welcomed.

It was not until today that the Jia family encountered such a situation.

Although she was frustrated, she couldn't back out since the purpose of this action was to ensure that she received the fees she deserved.

Helpless, he could only wait for Qin Huairu to return home.

But today's expectations will obviously have to be postponed to tomorrow.

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but sigh helplessly. Uncooperative families do make teachers' work more difficult.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu returned not long after. Seeing the new guest, she paused for a second and confirmed that it was her teacher before she smiled brightly:

"Teacher, why did you come here suddenly? Did the naughty boy Xiaogangen make a mistake at school?

"

Qin Huairu's return made Ran Qiuye, who was sitting uncomfortably, feel a little relieved.

I know that it might be futile to continue arguing with Jia Zhang.

So the topic turned back: "It seems that this period of time is coming to an end, Aunt Jia.

So I came to your house to discuss the issue of tuition. Have you considered how Jia Geng's family should arrange the funds?"

When Qin Huairu heard this, she frowned subconsciously.

In fact, there is a reason why Ran Qiuye chose to come at this time.

Compared with other schools that usually collect tuition and miscellaneous fees at the beginning of the semester, Hongxing Primary School does the opposite. The school chooses to charge a unified fee at the end of each semester.

The problem is that it is the beginning of the month, and the little money on hand needs to be used for basic household expenses.

If I hand it over to the school now, what should I do in the future? After some thinking and inner struggle, Qin Huairu couldn't help but want to communicate further with the teacher.

She said, "Teacher Ran, please understand that our family's situation is a bit special... We are unable to provide so much money at the moment.

Then he added, “Please don’t worry.

As a member of the school, it is our natural responsibility to pay the tuition fees.

But I beg you to allow this special adjustment - can I defer payment of tuition until the start of next semester?"

However, Ran Qiuye's expression looked very serious.

As a class teacher who is only responsible for daily teaching, I do not have absolute decision-making power over the collection of tuition fees.

"Mother of Wang Jiaru, it's not my intention to reject your request, but, you know, I'm just a teacher in the class, and I've been trying to reduce some of Jia Geng's fees... But the state has regulations that cannot be changed in this regard, and I can't make decisions on school issues.

"

Ran Qiuye seemed quite conflicted and helpless, with obvious hints contained in his words.

It is no wonder that she no longer has any intention of continuing to support or assist.

After realizing this problem, Qin Huairu could no longer continue complaining.

In the end, he collected 2.5 yuan from home and gave it to the other party. After all, he had cried more than once, and if he continued to delay, the situation would become even more embarrassing.

Even though she was unwilling, her determination to save face prevented her from giving in easily.

The indifference and silence towards the situation were obviously what Qin Huairu's mother-in-law was thinking.

She used to be a chatterbox, but now it was obvious that she was trying to avoid the issue of tuition payment.

Even though the person with the best conditions in the family was actually his mother-in-law, Jia Zhang.

And she can remain motionless under the attention of so many people. I really don’t know what is so special about such a grandma.

This time, Ran Qiuye originally had the idea of ​​meeting her ex-husband Chen Mu by chance, but she didn't expect that her wish would come true. Just as Qin Huairu was about to go to the courtyard gate, she happened to meet Chen Mu on his way back with cooking utensils in his hands. It was obvious that he had just returned from a banquet outside. She recognized the person in front of her at a glance without any extra thoughts.

After all, the image of Chen Mu in the newspaper was deeply rooted in people's hearts and unforgettable, so Ran Qiuye naturally remembered this image still fresh in his mind.

What’s even more surprising is that Chen Mu in real life is not only as memorable as in the portrait, but he is even more burly and more charming in real life.

Thinking of the news some time ago, that individual with outstanding abilities and extraordinary talents naturally became the friend she wanted to make.

The other person's gaze was too charming and attracted Chen Mu's attention.

The young lady did not fit in with the atmosphere of this courtyard; she exuded a gentle and elegant aura.

There is a small dimple at the corner of her mouth, and whenever she smiles, people are intoxicated by her charm.

And they quickly figured out that this person was the great class teacher in the plot - Ran Qiuye.

I guess she also came to visit the Jia family.

However, Chen Mu had limited interaction with this person, so he moved slightly out of courtesy, giving Ran Qiuye more space, and walked towards home.

Seeing that Ran Qiuye had no intention of taking the initiative to approach and talk, she pushed her bicycle without hesitation and caught up with Chen Mu who was walking forward.

"Excuse me, are you the person mentioned in the newspaper earlier, named Chen Mu?" he asked with pretended curiosity.

After hearing this, Chen Mu's movements paused slightly, but he responded calmly, nodded slightly, and confirmed with a calm answer: "Indeed, I am Chen Mu.

Who is this gentleman? I have never seen him in the courtyard.

"

Even though Chen Mu already knew the identity of this lady, in order to avoid possible trouble later, he pretended to be an unknown person.

Ran Qiuye mistakenly thought that Chen Mu had a crush on her and was in a very happy mood, so she appeared as a little girl and put her hands together in front of her chest, "Dear Mr. Chen Mu, I am the class teacher of Jia Geng. My last name is Ran Qiuye, please call me Qiuye directly.

"

Hearing the other party's hint of wanting to strike up a conversation with him, Chen Mu smiled lightly, "Mr. Chen Mu, the Medical Book will be of great benefit to you, and I have a copy at home.

My father often praises my work, so if there is an opportunity, why not have a deeper discussion? "

Chen Mu appeared calm on the outside, but he secretly sensed that this lady had more intentions than just that, and she seemed to desire to establish a closer relationship with him.

That face is indeed eye-catching. If she were not married, he might have paid extra attention to her.

However, at this moment, Chen Mu's heart could only accommodate one person, that is - Xiao Yun, and he had no intention of being distracted.
