Early on Monday morning, Jiang Dongping took Xu Changying, Jiang Ruiyin, and Yue Qingqing to the county seat.

After arriving at the county seat, Xu Changying and the others transferred to Gannan City.

The mid-term exam for Dadong Town Junior High School this semester is scheduled for Thursday and Friday this week.

As soon as Jiang Nan and Li Muyan entered the classroom, they felt a tense atmosphere.

Everyone was studying seriously. Even Zhang Xiaofeng, who was usually cynical, was holding an English book and temporarily holding the Buddha's feet.

Li Muyan looked at the changed class atmosphere, smiled and said to Jiang Nan:

"Brother Jiangnan, I feel that everyone is very nervous. Wang Sihai's face was pale just now and he didn't say much during the whole journey."

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "You don't know how much parents value scores. Wang Sihai's family has a gold standard..."

At that moment, Jiang Nan smiled and talked about Du Youde's fatherly love.

Li Muyan laughed loudly after hearing this and said: "I didn't expect Wang Sihai to be like this, but Brother Jiangnan, why do I think you are not nervous?"

Jiang Nan shook his non-existent hair and said: "You don't care about life and death. If you don't accept it, do it."

In fact, Jiang Dongping has been so busy recently that he probably doesn't even know when Jiangnan's midterm exam will be, so how can he think of putting pressure on Jiangnan.

Xu Changying never asked about Jiang Nan's grades. She only occasionally heard Jiang Dongping talk about where she got in the exam, and she was happy for her son.

When school was over at noon, Jin Beibei and Wang Sihai were already waiting downstairs. When they saw Jiangnan and the others walking over, Jin Beibei said with a smile:

"Is there anything wrong with you in your last class, Lao Lu?"

Li Muyan said with a smile: "Old Lu Tuotang, it seems that the whole school knows about it."

Jiang Nan said: "Isn't it right? Of all the teachers in the school, Lao Lu is probably the most annoying."

A few people were walking and chatting. When they were at the school gate, Jiangnan and others happened to meet Qin Ximei.

Qin Ximei smiled at several people and said hello: "Jiangnan, Li Muyan, Jin Beibei, do you know each other?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said, "Teacher Qin, our parents are all colleagues in the supply and marketing cooperative. We grew up together."

Qin Ximei smiled and said: "Oh, so that's it."

Jiang Nan asked: "Teacher Qin, how can you go to school after school?"

Qin Ximei said: "Just now a teacher told me that my mother called the school. I will go to the school to return the call."

Li Muyan smiled and said: "Teacher Qin, you don't have to go back. Jiangnan, please lend your phone to Teacher Qin for a while."

Jiang Nan took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to Qin Ximei. Qin Ximei was stunned for a moment, then took the mobile phone and went to make a call.

Jin Beibei asked in confusion: "Mu Yan, how come our teacher Qin is more familiar with you than me?"

Li Muyan opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Jiang Nan waved his hand and said, "This matter is a long story. I'll tell you again when I have the chance."

Jin Beibei looked at Jiang Nan's serious expression and knew that there must be some things that were not convenient to talk about, so she nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Ximei answered the phone and shed tears after not saying a few words.

Several people in Jiangnan looked at each other.

Qin Ximei said a few more words, then hung up the phone, walked over and returned the phone to Jiang Nan.

Seeing her crying, Jin Beibei couldn't bear it, so she asked, "Teacher Qin, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Ximei said: "I'm fine. It's just that my mother was sick and the villagers sent her to the county hospital. Now the money is not enough, so I have to go back and find a way."

Jin Beibei turned her head and looked at Jiang Nan without saying a word.

Jin Beibei knew that Jiang Nan should be able to come up with the money, but Jin Beibei still knew that wealth should not be revealed, and she did not want to cause trouble to Jiang Nan.

Li Muyan asked in a low voice: "Teacher Qin, how much money do you need?"

Qin Ximei said: "It needs five thousand yuan."

Li Muyan also turned around and looked at Jiang Nan.

Jiang Nan nodded and said: "Teacher Qin, please wait for me, I will go back and get it for me."

Qin Ximei knew about him selling pagers, and knew that she might not be able to borrow the money when she went back, so she might as well hold it for emergencies.

Soon, Jiang Nan came back with an envelope, put it in Qin Ximei's hand, and said: "Teacher Qin, there are six thousand here, take it first, and I will help you find a car."

Just arrive, you don’t have to worry about the fare.”

Qin Ximei looked at the envelope in her hand, struggled for a long time, and said, "Jiangnan, the teacher will return it to you as soon as possible."

Jiangnan and others waited with her for a while, and then Zhu Jinyun's car arrived.

Jiang Nan opened the passenger door and said to Qin Ximei: "Teacher Qin, get in the car."

After thinking about it, Jiang Nan said to Brother Zhu again: "Brother Zhu, send my teacher to the county hospital. When you get there, follow him and have a look. If you run into any trouble, call my dad and say it's me.

teacher."

Zhu Jinyun said: "Don't worry, Nannan, I will definitely deliver your teacher safely."

After Zhu Jinyun finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator and left.

After Qin Ximei left, Jin Beibei looked at Jiangnan again.

Seeing that she was full of gossip, Jiang Nan told them what happened that night when he and Li Muyan rescued Qin Ximei, and repeatedly told them not to tell anyone about this matter.

The three of them knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded solemnly in agreement.

When they arrived at Xu Xiaofen's wonton shop, Wang Xia had already cooked the meal and brought it to the table. There was also a strange middle-aged man sitting on the table.

When Xu Xiaofen saw the middle-aged man, she rushed towards him happily and shouted, "Uncle, why are you here?"

Wang Xia saw Jiang Nan and Li Muyan following behind, and said with a smile: "I'm not an outsider, this is my brother Wang Xie."

Jiang Nan and Li Muyan smiled and shouted: "Hello, Uncle Wang."

While eating, Xu Xiaofen asked: "Uncle, it's not the busy farming season, nor is it a holiday, why are you back at this time?"

Wang Xie said with a smile: "It is difficult to get money in Shenzhen this year, so I will go back to the county. I heard that there will be several major projects in the county in the second half of the year. I want to come back to find connections and get some work."

Jiang Nan smiled and asked: "Uncle Wang, is the big project you are talking about the relocation project of the County No. 1 Middle School?"

Wang Xie said with a smile: "Not only the relocation of the County No. 1 Middle School, but also the expansion of the County Hospital, the Chuanjiang Bridge, and... I can't even name them."

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Uncle Wang, do you have your own construction company?"

Wang Xie said: "I used to do decoration work outside. When I come back this time, do you want to do some work on your own and make some money?"

Jiang Nan nodded and said, "There are only two construction companies in the county. Are there any outside construction companies involved?"

Wang Xie said: "I don't know about outsiders. I guess I am looking for a connection with the first construction of the county."

After hearing this, Jiang Nan nodded and asked no more questions.

Jiangnan knew that in 1996, the two state-owned construction units in Xiaochuan County had basically existed in name only. With bloated institutions and low efficiency, they would not have been able to survive without the support of the government. Many technicians worked part-time in private companies.

Make some extra money.

In his previous life, Jiangnan was a construction guy and had been engaged in construction work for many years. Now he heard Uncle Xu Xiaofen mention the construction of buildings, so he got used to it and went up to chat for a while.

Wang Xia suddenly remembered something and said, "Jiangnan, does your father know the leader of the First Construction Company?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said, "I really haven't heard of this. I'll ask you later."

Wang Xia said: "Thank you, auntie. My brother's workmanship is still good."

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Well, Auntie, I remember this matter. I will ask my dad when I go back tonight."

After going home from self-study the next night, Jiang Nan made a phone call to Jiang Dongping.

After the call was connected, Jiang Nan said: "Hey, Dad, have you had a rest?"

Jiang Dongping said: "It's less than nine o'clock, how can you go to bed so early? By the way, Jiangnan, Zhu Jinyun called me today and said that your teacher's mother was hospitalized in the county and asked me to help find a better doctor.

"

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Oh, that's the case, but he's not my teacher, but the intern teacher of Jin Beibei's class. I remember that during the party on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, there was an uncle who was not the director of surgery at the county hospital.

?”

Jiang Dongping smiled and said: "You remember clearly, that is Uncle Zhou from Xiwang Town. I have already called him, but the situation is not good. Your Uncle Zhou said that the treatment is of little significance anymore, and the patients are the most

She still has one month to live. You teachers are really pitiful. Xiao Zhu told me that she has no father."

Jiang Dongping didn't say much about his condition. He didn't want to tell his children too much about birth, old age, illness and death.

Jiang Nan nodded, silently feeling sad for Teacher Qin Ximei.

In his previous life, he knew that Teacher Qin had no father, and now his mother was leaving him. Jiang Nan was a little worried for her. After all, she was only a college student who had not yet graduated.
