Zong Qingbao is Mei Xiaoe's aunt's cousin, born in the same year, and they were classmates from elementary school to high school. It's just that he was admitted to Chaoyang Normal College, and Xiao E failed to study as a teacher. After graduating from the teacher college, Zong became a mathematics teacher in the county experimental middle school, at that time, the status of the teacher was low, the salary was low, the work was tiring, he was from the countryside, the family conditions were poor, so he had to find a laid-off female worker to get married. His wife is sick all the year round and has no job, so his life is very tight. The biggest headache for him is that he has been working for 25 years and is still a junior title. His daughter-in-law and he were junior high school classmates, named Li Hong, scolded him for being unproductive, in addition to being bullied by colleagues, he was often bullied by students, and he couldn't say a word for a long time when he was angry.

Qingbao began to speculate in stocks in 2010, and at that time he bought the stock of Zhongqingbao, which was not sold from 30 yuan to 90 yuan, so everyone called him a big bull stock. In those years, he was full of spring breeze, and his daughter-in-law's face was also bright. But later, due to the decline in performance year after year, the stock price also fell to 15 yuan, and he went from a profit of more than 100,000 yuan to a loss of 30,000 yuan, as if falling from a mountain peak to a valley. He was depressed all the time, and he didn't have the energy to do anything.

One day in July 2019, in order to pay the pension insurance for his daughter-in-law, Qingbao asked Xiao E to borrow 30,000 yuan, and Xiao E readily agreed and transferred it to him through online banking. In order to thank Xiao E, the couple invited their colleague Kong Zhuozuo from Huaze Village to accompany them, and found a small restaurant to sit down, and Xiao E called Ma Xing to participate. Kong Jie is six years younger than the two of them, medium-sized, with a round face and big eyes, and a second brother who is very affectionate.

Li Hong was not tall, had rough skin, wore a semi-new white shirt, and was the typical kind of rural woman. She said affectionately: Thanks to the help of her second brother, she wouldn't have been able to receive her pension or not, what are you doing in this life?

Qingbao said with a wry smile: When I graduated from high school, the vendor who went to the school to collect waste paper is still collecting waste paper, and he said that there are three houses in the county. I grew from a poor student to a poor teacher, and I still live on the roof of a 90-square-meter building. I've been working for twenty-five or six years.

Kong Jie said: The second brother also served as a teacher, but he is a capable person, who dares to jump out of the system and make a career, which makes the younger brother admire!

For the first time in his life, he felt very happy to be touted by Xiao E, and no one in the village praised him so much in the years when he worked in the agency. No wonder if you want to be an official, you must learn to pat on the back, there is indeed knowledge in it.

Li Hong glanced at Qingbao and said, "Quickly pour wine for the second brother, what kind of eyes?"

Just full, don't be so polite. Little E said modestly.

Sister-in-law doesn't need to say that about Brother Zong, Brother Zong has a strong business ability. Kong Jie was busy with the round.

Why haven't you even been promoted to the intermediate level? You've been hired for two years. Li Hong said dissatisfied.

Hey, the problem in it can't be explained in a sentence or two, the water is very deep, and I know it deeply. Kong Jie sighed and said: But the situation has been much better since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, at least the information is more transparent.

Xiao E took a sip of wine and said: When I went to work, I was hit by my good grades and lost my job, I am not much better than Qingbao, but bad things have become good things, and no one has a front and back eye.

Qingbao said dissatisfiedly: Our school is out of luck in grabbing classes, and Shi Di Shengzheng has robbed me of my class, and I won't say a word. As a result, I couldn't finish the course at the end, so my grades were poor. I reported to the director of the department, and he said that this kind of thing cannot be stopped, otherwise it will discourage people's enthusiasm.

Kong Jie said: Another thing is that the large classes are empty, and extracurricular activities are also based on small subjects, and students just have to carry back their backs and have no time to exercise. The students' homework has to be done at 12 o'clock in the evening, which is really a fatigue battle. This is the root cause of students' lack of creativity. It is no exaggeration to say that some teachers with high scores are rushing to grab classes, and the most disgusting thing is that some teachers assign a lot of homework, so that students have no time to learn other subjects.

Qingbao couldn't help but laugh out loud and said: In my math class, there are students in politics and history in every class, and it seems that there is a lot of homework.

Kong Jie sneered and said: Everyone understands this matter, but no one has said it, vicious competition!

Xiao E said: It's all the fault of the title, sacrificing the physical and mental health of students for money, and delaying students' learning of mathematics for money. I remember a mathematician who said: "When mathematics is strong, the country is strong." I heard from the students of the Education Bureau that the students in our county are generally poor in mathematics. Therefore, it is normal for Qingbao to not be promoted to the intermediate level, not because of one aspect.

Ma Xing interjected: Herbert Simon, the Nobel Prize in Economics, said that the world's top mathematicians have been poached by Amazon, Apple and Google, and they are given high treatment. If they are engaged in education, education will develop better and the economy will be better.

Qingbao smiled bitterly and said: I am just a little teacher, and I can only teach. Teach also-

Li Hong said to her husband: Why don't you rob, if you don't rob, it means that you are not self-motivated, and the leader does not like you.

Qingbao was anxious and retorted: I can't rob them, but I also make easy money.

Li Hong said disdainfully: It's easy, I get one or two thousand less than others a month, and my teeth are relaxed and my stomach is relaxed.

Kong Jie whispered: Second brother, do you know why our county has the college entrance examination in the city-he stretched out his little thumb.

Little E shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Kong Jie continued: In order to get a good ranking in the county, in order to promote the teachers to a higher professional title, most of the grades of primary and junior high schools were fraudulent, so when it came to the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination, they were completely exposed, and they were the first to last for ten consecutive years.

Didn't the bureau leader know? Xiao E asked in surprise.

Both directors said that it was caused by the aging of teachers, so they desperately recruited teachers, and the county's finances were very tight. Kong Jie knows so much.

Ma Xing glanced out the window and whispered: During the college entrance examination last year, the teaching director of XX High School used a cheating device to send answers to students, and he was promoted. This year, he was caught by the patrol, and the principal kept him alive, and he was fine.

In the end, Xiao E sent a Nobel Prize lecture on economics to Zong Qingbao, saying: The economist's conclusion - the best strategy of the game is to return a tooth for a tooth. If you can't do it, you want to open some, isn't it just money? The body is great, living a few more years is better than anything else, and health is the greatest wealth.

After returning to the company, Xiao E told the boss about his cousin, Wang Gui said that this is easy to do, don't we have a live broadcast to bring goods? Let Wang Ziqi take him, and he will definitely be in a high mood after a week.

Wang Ziqi is an Internet celebrity cultivated by the company, who looks a bit like Zhang Xixi, but looks more sophisticated than Zhang Xixi. She has more than 1 million fans, and she has sold more than 50 million yuan in goods in half a year.

Qingbao can only teach mathematics, so let him popularize some mathematical knowledge to fans, and it can be regarded as making some contributions to the country. 100 yuan per class, and the red envelope belongs to the individual.

Where to find such a good thing, Qingbao's daughter-in-law hurriedly agreed.

Qingbao was fascinated by Wang Ziqi, especially Ziqi, who was wearing a white dress, was like a goddess descending from heaven, and the sound of heaven was like an echo in the hollow valley. He was never late for weekends and holidays, he worked hard to prepare for class, and he didn't want to go home after work, until Wang Ziqi drove him away, and he reluctantly left the live broadcast room.

Qingbao's class is simple and simple, and some people are really willing to listen, and he sometimes tells them about their children's homework, and receives a lot of red envelopes.

The big cow's waist bag is bulging, and the daughter-in-law has a smiling face.

But the good times didn't last long.

One day, when he was doing a live broadcast, he received a call from a securities company, telling him that he had won the lottery, and that he needed to keep 100,000 yuan in cash in his account, and that he could earn at least 100,000 yuan according to the regular rules. The big news made him spin around, foaming at the mouth and falling to the ground. Wang Ziqi screamed in fright and hurriedly called the boss.

After a while, Qingbao got up on his own, rolled his eyes up, clapped his hands and shouted: "Hey—I've been hit! Pushing open the door, he stumbled out and rolled from the second floor to the first floor at once.

The security guard followed out.

Qingbao got up and continued to shout: I was hit!

After receiving the call, Wang Gui and Xiao E rushed to the company, Qingbao danced in the park opposite the company, and kept shouting: I won, big lot! Daughter-in-law Li Hong kept scolding him, and many people around him were watching the excitement.

Wang Gui wanted to call 120, but Xiao E said no, let's see the situation first.

Crossing the road and coming to the park, Xiao E asked Li Hong: Who is Qingbao usually afraid of?

I am most afraid of dogs, Li Hong said.

There happened to be a dog walker nearby, Xiao E walked over to explain the situation, he pointed to Qingbao and said to the owner of the dog: You can only scare him, but you must ensure safety, and gave him a hundred yuan.

The owner of the dog was not humble and took the money to lead the dog to the place of Little E's finger.

The little flower dog is not big, but it is also brave, and it is very strange to see Qingbao like he is drunk and staggering, so he barks a few times. Qingbao chased after him and bit his trouser legs, and Qingbao fainted in fright.

You've got a fart! Li Hong scolded while pinching Qingbao's people. After a while he woke up, spitting, and his eyes were bright.

Li Hong unscrewed the lid of the water cup, and Qingbao picked up the cup and poured a few sips of water.

He yelled at the sight of the dog, thinking it was coming to bite him again. The owner of the dog snapped his fingers and hurriedly led the dog away.

The people around laughed and saw Qingbao covered in dust, with a little bruises on his face, and thought it was funny. Li Hong patted him, wiped his face with wet wipes, and said: Hard-working people can't enjoy great blessings.

Wang Gui and Xiao E walked over, squatted down to hold Qingbao's hand, and asked: Are you better?

Qingbao said embarrassedly: It's okay. It's like a dream.

Wang Ziqi also came, holding a bottle of water in his hand. Qingbao quickly sat up.

Ziqi gave the water to Wang Gui, and Qingbao was very disappointed.

Wang Gui opened the cap of the bottle and took a sip.

This is because the surprise is too phlegm-obsessed, and Xiao E said to Wang Gui that he can only use fright therapy to remove phlegm.

Who did you learn it from? It really works. Wang Gui said enviously.

Little E pretended to be mysterious and said: He knows.

Qingbao smiled.

Back in the office, Xiao E sighed and said: This is his fate, success is not a blessing.

Wang Gui said: That is, wealth is not matched.
