"Junshan, this tea art is extensive and profound. Even I only know a little bit about it. If you are interested, you can learn it."
Nan Jianlong was also very happy to see Zhou Chen's interest. Of the two sons-in-law, he obviously preferred his biological son-in-law. The relationship with his biological daughter was on the one hand. More importantly, Xia Junshan was still his student and he was the one who brought him out.
of.
"Making tea when you have nothing to do usually is a way to calm your mind."
Zhou Chen smiled and complimented: "What dad said is that if you have time, you really need to study it."
Tian Yulan over there saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she took the initiative to talk to Zhou Chen and the others.
"Xia Junshan, Nan Li, you really need to think about it carefully and pay close attention to Huanhuan's studies. Let me tell you, do you know why Ziyou was able to take the first place in the exam this time?"
Without waiting for an answer, she gave the answer herself.
"It's because I signed him up for a cram school. It's not a cram school from an institution, but a cram school from their math teacher Zhong Yi. I have to say that Zhong Yi is quite good. After Ziyou attended his cram school,
, there has been a significant improvement in mathematics. Not only did I get the first place in the mathematics test this time, but I also got a perfect score."
Zhou Chen and Nan Li both knew what was going on. Seeing Tian Yulan showing off, they looked at each other without saying a word.
Nan Jianlong asked in surprise: "Huanhuan and Ziyou's math teacher? Isn't it said that teachers on the job don't provide cram schools?"
Tian Yulan immediately said: "Uncle Nan, you don't know this. Policies are policies. Who knows whether the people below will implement them or not? Besides, without running cram schools and just relying on dead wages, how much can a primary school teacher earn?
?Zhong Yi is an unmarried person. If he doesn’t run cram schools to make money, how can he get married?”
"So, if the teacher doesn't run a cram school, just listen and don't take it seriously. Not to mention, I didn't find out before that the teachers in my class are much more reliable than the cram schools outside. Not only are they more expensive
There are few, and those who know the basics are more reassuring.”
"Oh, I see."
Nan Jianlong didn't know why, but he still agreed.
"Nan Li, I think you should also consider signing up for Zhong Yi's class. His skills are really good."
Tian Yulan, I'm afraid you don't know that if I hadn't been the mediator, you wouldn't be praising Zhong Yi now, but scolding him.
"Aunt, aunt, my sister has a teacher at home."
Chaochao suddenly raised his little hand and said loudly to Tian Yulan.
Tian Yulan was suddenly startled and looked at Nan Li: "There is a teacher? What do you mean?"
Nan Li had no choice but to answer: "We hired a tutor for Huanhuan, a one-on-one tutor. Xia Junshan and I happen to be very busy, so the tutor's visit can save us a lot of time."
"You actually hired a tutor?"
Tian Yulan was shocked. Not only him, but also Nan Jianlong and Yan Peng were stunned.
Nan Jianlong asked Zhou Chen: "You hired a tutor for Huanhuan? No, didn't you have little requirements for Huanhuan's grades before? Why did you hire a tutor for her? Huanhuan, are you tired from studying at home?
ah?"
The last sentence was asked to Xia Huanhuan.
Huan Huan replied happily: "Grandpa, you're not tired. Sister Xiaoqin is so good. She's better than the teachers in the class. I like her very much."
Zhou Chen explained: "Xiaoqin is Chen Xiaoqin, the tutor we hired."
Tian Yulan said in surprise: "One-on-one tutoring, and door-to-door service, the price must not be low, right?"
Nan Li replied: "Three hundred an hour, two hours a day."
Tian Yulan was even more shocked when she heard this: "Three hundred and one hours, two hours a day, isn't that nearly 20,000 per month? Are you crazy?"
Although she also cares about her son's studies, she has not reached the level of 20,000 yuan a month, and is still far from even half.
Nan Jianlong was also shocked. The tutoring fee of nearly 20,000 yuan a month was definitely a huge expense for his daughter and son-in-law. They could afford it, but it would definitely greatly reduce their quality of life.
Nan Li: "It's not that exaggerated. I don't come every day, and sometimes I can't go if something happens. More than ten thousand is about right."
"More than ten thousand."
Listening to Nan Li speaking this figure calmly, Tian Yulan was shocked. You must know that her salary is only over 10,000 yuan, and Yan Peng is even lower than her. The two of them add up to only about 20,000 yuan.
But the cost of hiring a tutor for Huanhuan was equivalent to most of the couple's income, which suddenly made her feel unbalanced.
Ever since, her tone changed slightly.
"Spending so much money to hire a tutor should have a great effect, but why is Huanhuan's test score this time only average?"
When Zhou Chen heard this, he raised his eyebrows. Could this affect Huanhuan's grades?
Yan Peng was also anxious. This girl, he had just promised Zhou Chen yesterday and hadn't eaten yet, so why did she start provoking again?
So he blinked hard at Tian Yulan, asking Tian Yulan to pay attention and stop talking, but Tian Yulan continued talking as if he didn't see it.
"You should pay attention. Some tutors are not good enough. Don't waste your money."
Okay, now Nan Li couldn't help it anymore.
"We are not stupid. Whether we have the ability or not depends on our results. Progress must be gradual and cannot be seen in a short period of time. Besides, it doesn't matter if we spend unjust money. We earn the money ourselves."
Yes, it’s up to us to decide how we spend it. Let’s just treat it as a lesson learned and spend money to buy lessons.”
When Tian Yulan heard this, she felt even worse. She always felt that there was something in Nan Li's words.
What does it mean to earn one's own money? Don't I earn my own money? Yes, most of their family's expenses are supported by Yan Peng's parents.
Thinking of this, Tian Yulan felt even more uncomfortable. She had worked hard for so many years just to prove that she was no worse than Nan Li, so she could be compared by anyone, but she must not let herself be compared by Nan Li.
Since you can't compare yourself, then compare yourself to your children.
"According to my many years of experience, the field of tutoring is too deep. You should pay attention. Don't be deceived. Spend so much money. If you hire a liar, it will be a big loss. You still have to hire a teacher.
Someone who is familiar, reliable, and knowledgeable, just like Teacher Zhong.”
Overtly and covertly, she had the same idea, that is, Zhou Chen and Nan Li were not as experienced as she was, and they didn't know people as well as she did.
But Nan Li didn't tolerate her at all and responded in a calm tone.
"What you said makes sense, but it is absolutely impossible to be a liar, because this teacher Chen Xiaoqin was introduced to us by Zhong Yi. By the way, I forgot to mention that Zhong Yi is Junshan's junior brother, and that Chen Xiaoqin, the three of them are from
In the same county, Chen Xiaoqin is still the top scorer in the college entrance examination in their county.",
This wave of pretense can be said to be done in one go. Even Zhou Chen secretly gave a thumbs up, my wife, that's awesome.
Tian Yulan's face instantly turned dark, and she was too embarrassed to say a word. She had just been blowing Zhong Yi for a long time, and she still had such a relationship with Xia Junshan?
Seeing that his wife was unable to utter a single word, Yan Peng quickly changed the subject.
"Mom has served the food, let's go, eat, eat."
Nan Jianlong also heard the sound of swords and swords, and immediately echoed: "Yes, let's eat. Today we cooked a lot of dishes, all of which the children like to eat."
"Huanhuan, Chaochao, and Ziyou, let's go have dinner with grandpa."
