Chapter 112: Entering the Zhong Family Again
"Huh, why is Xiaohua here?" Grandma Zhong walked out of the kitchen, and when she saw Ling Wenjiao, she said hello in surprise.
After Ling Wenjiao entered the Zhong family, she still liked the atmosphere of the Zhong family very much. It feels like a normal and warm family, not like the situation in her family......
"Zhong Mingsong, you go and get a soda for your little flower teacher. After seeing Ling Wenjiao sit down, Zhong Shumei immediately called Zhong Mingsong to get a soda for Ling Wenjiao.
"Oh!" Zhong Mingsong was happy to go and get a soda for Ling Wenjiao, but was stopped by Ling Wenjiao.
"Alas, Zhong Mingsong, wait a minute, don't use it, don't take that. Just pour me a glass of warm water. Ling Wenjiao called Zhong Mingsong back, and then said to him.
When Zhong Mingsong heard this, he turned his head and poured water for her.
"Mom, Xiaohua is the English tutor who posted a small advertisement for admissions. After Zhong Shumei heard the old lady's question, she explained to her with a smile.
The old lady was a little surprised and said, "Huh, is it! Such a coincidence? It seems that Xiaohua has a very strong relationship with our family." ”
Ling Wenjiao smiled and didn't say anything.
Zhong Shumei then asked a series of questions: "You are now a junior in high school, right? How long did you last go with that Mr. Nakajima? Is the work still going well? Nothing happened, right?"
Hearing her ask, Old Man Zhong and Zhong Linjiang both stretched out their ears.
Ling Wenjiao replied to her: "Mr. Nakajima is a good person, he only stayed in Qionglan for a few days, and then I went to Nanzhou and Mount Tai with him. I came back in the twenties of last month, and I came back just in time to sign up. ”
Hearing her answer, nothing bad happened, and the expressions of Zhong Shumei and the others relaxed slightly.
"That's good, that's good, it's okay. Then he gave you enough money, right? Is your tuition enough?" Zhong Shumei then asked her with some concern.
Because she heard Ling Wenjiao say that she needed to earn her own tuition fees last time, this money should be very important to her.
Ling Wenjiao nodded: "Enough, I don't have any problems this semester." ”
It's just that I'll have to find another way next semester......
"Why do you want to be a tutor? Aren't you a senior in high school? Aren't you preparing well for next year's college entrance examination?"
After all, playing chess with his father is really boring, helpless and tormenting, as far as the old man's chess skills are concerned, he will regret playing chess if he makes a mistake, and he can't say anything about him. Say him, and he'll be in a hurry with you!
Ling Wenjiao looked at him and replied: "The family doesn't give living expenses, you always have to find a way to earn some living expenses or something." And you can learn at school, and I want to do something else at home during the holidays to change my mood, otherwise there is no living expenses and it is also a kind of pressure. ”
Her words made Old Man Zhong stunned: "Didn't you go home for dinner? Why don't you even give you food at home? Why don't you go to school for such a good child? What do your parents think?"
Ling Wenjiao didn't want to reveal too much about her parents, but said, "It's okay, even if I don't rely on them, I can find a way to earn money to support myself." ”
"That's right, her parents probably want to provide all the family's money for your brother's education, right! But it's too unreasonable not to give you food, how can you be a parent like this?" Zhong Shumei also began to get angry when she thought about it.
Ling Wenjiao shook her head and said, "It's not that they don't give me food, it's that I don't want to eat at home." Because they say that I eat white food at home...... Saying that I am so old that I should have gone out to work to subsidize my family, and it is useless to study. ”
"Alas, such a patriarchal preference, it is also a grievance for you to be born in that kind of family with such a character. However, everyone can't decide their own birth, so they can only rely on the day after tomorrow to change their fate. The old lady sighed a little embarrassed when she heard this.
Ling Wenjiao felt that she had said too much, and she was not here to make them sympathize with her life experience. So he immediately changed the subject and said, "It's good that I have some skills myself." By the way, there are so many children in your family...... Which one needs me to teach? It can't be Mingsong, right?"
As soon as everyone heard her words, they all immediately turned their heads to look at Zhong Mingyue, and the old lady pointed at him and said, "Oh, isn't he going to take the college entrance examination next year like you." We wanted to give him a mentioner of English, and then, if we could, we wanted Ming Song and Ming Jin to follow along with them. ”
As soon as Ling Wenjiao heard what they meant, she knew that they wanted to hire a tutor who could help the three children in the family to teach together. But this will involve the issue of different curricula, after all, there are three teenagers in an elementary school, a junior high school, and a high school. And they mainly want her to teach high school content, but they also want the two little ones to listen to it, so that they can absorb some of it.
She thought for a moment and said, "If you say you want to teach the three of them together, then the level of this course is different. And I charge tuition on a per capita basis, so if the three of them teach together, I may charge more tuition. ”
"Money is not a problem, the problem is how you organize your time. It's good that you mainly teach Ming Yue, Ming Song and Ming Jin are listening to it on the side, if they have any questions, you can help answer them. Originally, I wanted to hire an English teacher from their school to teach me, but now their school says that teachers can't hold cram schools privately, so we thought about finding a private tutor to teach the class. Zhong Shumei immediately became perverted.
Their family's current thoughts are to let the children's English scores be raised, and as for the money, it is easy to discuss. Their parents' income is not low, can't they afford to hire a personal tutor when they pay together?
"If they can't afford it, then they can take out my old man's pension. But you have to make sure that it's a package of teachers, and we don't want the money to be given in vain, and their English level still hasn't improved much. Old Man Zhong said loudly.
"Hey, Dad, how can we use this money to move your pension? Are you going to slap us in the face or what?" As soon as Zhong Shumei heard the old man's words, she immediately retorted dissatisfiedly.
Ling Wenjiao's attitude towards them was actually what she expected before, but this number was not what she expected.
"Okay, Shumei, don't quarrel with Dad, let's listen to Xiaohua's fees first. Xiaohua, you say, how to calculate the tuition?" At this time, the old lady interrupted the father and daughter with a voice, and then looked at Ling Wenjiao again.
Ling Wenjiao said: "If it is mainly to teach Ming Yue, he is a high school course. My standard is eighty-one days, from nine in the morning to five in the afternoon. But we're all acquaintances, and I can get a little discount and reduce it by five dollars a day. Then Ming Song and Ming Jin, they just sit in on the audit and add some homework help, then I'll take the two of them together for thirty yuan a day. So that's one hundred and five dollars in one day, and then four hundred and twenty dollars in four days in a month. ”
