"Okay, thank you. Go back and help me bring it with you. I will visit you all when I go to the commune next time." Song Xi accepted the gift.
Although it looked like an ordinary rectangular box, she could feel that the contents inside were definitely not ordinary.
Because the whole Li family gave it to her.
The two of them walked and talked like this, and soon arrived at the elementary school. It was time for class. Song Xi went to teach the students, while Li Qingqing sat in the office reading.
After the class was over, several teachers returned to the office.
On the way back to the office, Ji Rufeng talked to Song Xi about going to the beach. Li Qingqing, who was sitting in the office, heard this and asked curiously, "Xiao Xi, are you going to the beach?"
"We have this plan, not now, but in early August, but it won't be confirmed until then," Song Xi explained.
"I want to go too." Li Qingqing's eyes were full of envy, "Can I go together?"
"It's too late to go to the beach within half a month to twenty days. Are you sure you have that much time to go with us at that time?" Song Xi looked at Li Qingqing in confusion.
Li Qingqing said, "I have been working diligently over the years and have never asked for leave except for the prescribed leave. As long as I find a suitable person to cover my shift, I should be able to ask for leave."
."
Song Xi nodded, "Okay, we will tell you when we confirm the travel date. Then you can just write a personal letter of introduction and bring some luggage."
Even Song Xi, who has been to the beach, is interested in the beach of this era, not to mention Li Qingqing, a local. It is normal for her to want to go to the beach.
It just so happens that everyone goes together so that they can take care of each other and it is safer.
After returning home in the evening, Song Xicai opened the birthday gift that Li Qingqing had given her in advance. It turned out to be two fountain pens, and they were the highest quality and most expensive pens in this era.
One absorbs black ink, blue ink is used for writing, and one absorbs red ink, used for correcting homework. It can be said that this birthday gift from the Li family was sent to her heart.
Soon it was Saturday evening, and the graduating students who had attended the junior high school for a week returned to the village. Qian Weimin arranged for Wu Hu to pick them up. From now on, Wu Hu would be responsible for picking up the students every Saturday evening, and Hai would pick them up on the weekends on Thursday.
In the evening, I am responsible for sending students back to their residences.
As soon as Zhou Xiangdong returned home and put down his personal belongings, he took Zhou Xiangqing and Xiaomeng to find Song Xi and share interesting stories about junior high school with Song Xi.
Zhou Xiangdong's chattering tone was full of excitement. Song Xi didn't disturb him and just let him keep talking. She listened to whatever he said.
Because the ten of them achieved excellent results in the entrance examination, Principal Lin directly placed them in the key class of the branch campus, which was also the class taught by Principal Lin himself.
Song Xi didn't expect that Principal Lin was quite smart. He placed ten of them in his own class. After taking a few exams, Principal Lin became famous.
"Xiangdong, how is your relationship with your classmates in the city? Is there anyone who looks down on you or provokes you?" Song Xi asked with concern. This was what she was most worried about.
It is always like this, the people in the city look down on the people in the country, and the rich look down on the poor.
Zhou Xiangdong shook his head, "When we went to class on the first day, Principal Lin said that if any of those messy things happened in his class, he would go home and not come to class. In addition, most of our classes are
I came here to study, not to play, so nothing like this happened."
"That's good." After all, they are the students she brought out. Song Xi must care about them. Now that she knows they are fine in school, she feels relieved.
"Xiangdong, Xiang Qing, you guys play here with Xiaomeng for a while, and I'll make dinner. You all have dinner here tonight!"
As soon as Song Xi stood up, Xiao Meng chased after her, shouting cutely and cutely, "Aunt Xi, let me help you light the fire!"
"Thank you, Xiaomeng, but no need. Xiaomeng can just play in the yard with her brothers and sisters." Song Xi turned her head and glanced at the well, and saw that the manhole cover was well covered, and she felt relieved.
After handing Xiaomeng to Zhou Xiangdong and Zhou Xiangqing, Song Xi went to the kitchen to make dinner. At this time, it was definitely too late to soak the dried seafood, so she went directly to the supermarket's staff restaurant and brought out two pots of vegetables.
Spicy whitebait, steamed large yellow croaker, boiled prawns, fried ham with cucumber, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried pork with beans, loofah minced meat soup, boiled broccoli.
For two adults, two and a half-year-old children, and one kid, these many dishes are more than enough.
This season is when vegetables are in full bloom. No matter what ingredients she takes out from the supermarket or what dishes she serves, no one can doubt anything. Zhou Yi never doubts anything.
He will eat whatever Song Xi cooks. If he cooks it himself, then he will cook whatever is good. He will never offend his wife's stomach.
When Zhou Yi came back from work, everyone had dinner together.
During the meal, Song Xi asked Zhou Xiangdong to study with peace of mind and not to worry about money. After the students graduated, the monthly reward of ten yuan was changed to five yuan for living expenses.
The school pays 10 yuan a month, 480 yuan for four years, and 600 yuan for five years. Regardless of whether you study for four years or five years, everyone will have hundreds of yuan in their hands when they graduate.
However, this matter has not been made public. It can be said that most students have saved this money themselves. It can be said that this is a level that is beyond the reach of others.
After graduation, I will go to junior high school and high school. I don't have to pay for the tuition myself. I can also receive five yuan for living expenses every month. This year, it will be sixty yuan, which is more than what I can earn from a year of hard work in a poor village.
So they really don't have to worry about money anymore.
Zhou Xiangdong is in junior high school, but Song Xi's trading with them has not stopped. He spends most of his time trading with Zhou Xiangqing. Zhou Xiangdong will only trade with Song Xi when he returns from vacation.
Soon it will be Song Xi's twenty-first birthday. I didn't expect that time flies by so fast and it has been four years since she came to this world.
In four years, he changed the destinies of so many people, helped so many girls, and taught Zhou Yi how to make money. It was not a wasted trip.
Song Xi's birthday is Monday. She has to go to school, and Zhou Yi also left early to go to work. So today, she doesn't know whether Zhou Yi will help her celebrate her birthday or cook a meal for her.
