Chapter 280: A Conversation Between Men
Finally asked the topic, Xiao Zhijie couldn't hide anymore, although Principal Zhang was still smiling, he kept staring at him, and at this time he denied it, it was not a good way, the teacher asked this, he must know something, such as photos and the like, "Yes, let's go together,"
Xiao Zhijie didn't deny it, Principal Zhang nodded, "Speaking of which, I really envy you, we didn't go to college back then, and after graduating from junior high school, we went to the normal school, and before that, we had no money, and we didn't have time to go out for a big circle like you."
I joined the work, I am usually very busy, and I have to help the family do things during the winter and summer vacations, and I have no time, but now, I am old, and many places and scenery are only seen in books. ”
Now it is very easy to travel, the train is getting faster and faster, and the plane tickets are getting cheaper and cheaper, plus Yiping is opening hotels everywhere, where do you want to go to play, just say it, food, clothing, housing and transportation, he will help you arrange it. Xiao Zhijie didn't dare to answer now, and Wang Changning had no choice but to pull the topic to Feng Yiping.
"It's not just Yiping, you are all good, and you will definitely have a great future in the future," Principal Zhang clinked glasses with them, "You are all older now, and you know some things, as men, as parents, we work hard ourselves, play less, in fact, it's nothing, as long as the family is good, as long as the children are good, men, for the sake of the family, for the children, you don't even want your life, what's the point of suffering, you say yes?"
"Yes," the other two men would object.
It's just that Xiao Zhijie's face is getting more and more bitter.
"Our generation has not met your current good times, I have no ability, and I have no achievements, but the work I consciously do is still meaningful, and Qiu Ling is not bad, even if she took my class and joined the work. The performance is also very good.
Unlike you, she's a girl, and it's good to do this job, although the income is not high. But stable, colleagues are simple, there are many holidays, and it is also a respectable position.
I want to retire before I do. Do your best to transfer her to the town junior high school to teach English, and then find a way to see if I can let her go further, become a teaching and research leader, if I can be a teaching director or something, then I am also satisfied. ”
"Principal, you can always be willing to be poor, stick to the school for decades, I admire it, I salute you!" Xiao Zhijie will always wilt. was not in the state, Wang Changning had no choice but to provoke the beam.
"Come, Zhijie, let's go together, you agree with what I say," Principal Zhang raised his glass and invited Xiao Zhijie.
"The principal is right," Xiao Zhijie said abruptly.
"However, Qiu Ling must be able to go on like I arranged. I still need the help of your classmates, and I hope that after you leave the school gate, you can get along like classmates. Can you agree to my request?" Principal Zhang raised his glass, but did not drink, looking at the two of them, mainly Xiao Zhijie asked.
"No problem," Mr. Wang said.
"It's going to be better for her than before," Xiao Zhijie said with his head down.
Principal Zhang listened. After a pause, he smiled, "That's good," and drank the wine down.
Before the words were finished, Principal Zhang was not in a hurry to leave, and stayed with them at a nearby Yijia, "Changning, do you have classes in the afternoon, go back to school if you have classes, Zhijie, you stay for a while,"
Wang Changning glanced at Xiao Zhijie, Xiao Zhijie motioned for him to go, he figured it out, there are some things, you still have to face it yourself, "Then the principal, you have a good rest, I will come to see you at night, Zhijie, accompany the teacher." ”
After Wang Changning left, the room was a little quiet for a while, "You also sit," Principal Zhang finished the tea made by Xiao Zhijie, rubbing his temples with his eyes closed, "I came this time to hide from Qiu Ling,"
When it came to the end, Xiao Zhijie no longer dodged, "I know, I didn't tell her." ”
Principal Zhang opened his eyes and glanced at him, with a hint of approval, he handled it like this, a bit of a man, "Tell me, when did you start? The secrecy work is good, and you have hidden us for so long,"
In fact, they found out that this thing was quite a fluke, Zhang Qiuling was very careful, even too careful, last year's trip, in the photos washed out, she and Huang Jingping, Yu Lian, and Feng Yiping, Wang Changning There are photos, but there is no one with Xiao Zhijie, and I told my family that there were only five people that time.
However, after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some relaxation, the day before yesterday, when her mother helped her tidy up the room, a photo fell out of a book on the table, it was in Jing'an Temple, Xiao Zhijie learned that the family had received the admission letter, holding Zhang Qiuling in a circle, when she went back to school, she forgot to take it with her,
Below the photo, the dates are clear, and Principal Zhang and his wife understand at a glance that there must be something wrong with their daughter and Xiao Zhijie, otherwise they would not hide the news that he is also there, and they just left such an intimate one.
Principal Zhang rushed to the town and asked the school's doorman, and sure enough, he inquired that this young man, on the weekend, had come to Zhang Qiuling several times, and then thought of his daughter's many weekend holidays before, saying that he was going to find classmates, or staying at school and not going home, so the reason was about to come out, and he went to see Xiao Zhijie.
"When I was in high school," Xiao Zhijie said honestly, "I went to the normal school to find Qiu Ling many times, and it was because of her encouragement that I was admitted to my current university." ”
"You now," Principal Zhang only asked, but he still couldn't ask that question.
Even if he asked, Xiao Zhijie would definitely hold on to this question, how could he dare to admit that after this year, under his stubborn grinding, he finally pulled Zhang Qiuling in his own home in the provincial capital and did everything he had to do?
"I'm also an enlightened person, it's just that you're all still young now, and you're all laying the foundation for the future, you're still in school, and Qiu Ling is also studying, these two years are very critical, so I don't approve of you being too close now.
Moreover, you also know my arrangement for Qiu Ling, I only have one child, although when I was a child, we raised her as a boy, but she is a girl after all, and her mother and I don't want her to be too far away from us, so we hope that she will also find someone to work in the town. ”
After all the words were spoken, Xiao Zhijie simply changed his title, "Uncle, the traffic is so convenient now, there is not much difference between the town and the town, or not the town,"
Principal Zhang didn't think that these few words could stop these young men and women who were in love, "When I was in school, I rarely looked for the parents of students, and today is the same, this is a conversation between us and a man, I hope you can also understand the distress of a father."
It's still the same sentence just now, I hope you still get along like classmates, don't cross the line, it's okay to talk on the phone on weekdays, but running around in two places on weekends is a waste of time and money, and it's not safe.
When I go back, I will look at Qiu Ling, what about you, don't bother her again. ”
Xiao Zhijie was immediately anxious, the first taste of it, how could they hold back, "Uncle, just like when we were in high school, when we meet, we can still encourage each other, in fact, the learning effect is better." ”
"You have just turned 21 years old this year, and you have grown up consciously, in fact, there are many things that you don't understand yet, and you don't think about it well, so be it for the time being, I won't let Qiu Ling come to you, and you don't bother her. ”
"Uncle, I understand your approach, I understand that your arrangements and plans are all for Qiu Ling's good," Xiao Zhijie knew, and it was useless to be anxious now, "But you also know that the times are different, and at that time, it was a very good choice to be a teacher, but now, I don't mean to look down on you at all, to be a township teacher, even if I really tell you in the future, she must be the best choice if she becomes the principal of the town middle school? Is it also Qiu Ling's own willing choice?"
"Yes, this era is very exciting, there are many opportunities, and there are many choices, but for her as a girl, we don't expect her to glorify her ancestors, to have a stable and decent job in the town, and a warm and beautiful family is enough. Principal Zhang said.
Xiao Zhijie almost said, I decided, after I graduated, I will also find a way to teach in the town, but such words are not easy to say, saying it is a promise, if I can't do it, Principal Zhang will definitely be even more dissatisfied.
If he did it, how could his parents be satisfied, he was easily admitted to the university, and then he had to go back to the town? Even if he walked with Zhang Qiuling later, how could his parents like her?
The conversation came to an end, and they all made their intentions clear, but no one convinced anyone.
Coming out of the hotel, he couldn't find the best plan, agreed to Principal Zhang's arrangement, he couldn't do it, just kidding, he could only call and not meet, how could he stand it?
It's not good to say yes first, and then meet secretly? It's not good, Principal Zhang has been talking about men and men today, emphasizing responsibility, how can you do such a thing?
He thought about it so much that he discussed it with Wang Changning, but Wang Changning couldn't think of any ideas for a while, so he called Zhang Qiuling and asked her to make trouble with her family.
So in the end, he dialed Feng Yiping's phone.
Feng Yiping was surprised when he heard what Xiao Zhijie said, he knew that Xiao Zhijie was actually a very strong person, and this was the first time he was asked to help find a way, but this matter was really troublesome! )
