Chapter 293 Treat

"No, who is so immoral and can't get along with this child?"

Wang Dong frowned and called the kid over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The child was skinny, and there was not much flesh on his face, and he wore cloth shoes made at home on his feet in winter, which was not warm at all, and the clothes on his body were very thin, just a thin cotton jacket, and from the small hole in the jacket, you could see that it had formed pieces of black cotton.

In the era when every household is still struggling with food and clothing, it is really not so important to dress, but the weather in the north is cold, so you have to keep warm, right?

Liu Xiaping reached out and squeezed the child's hand and asked, "What's your name?" Which class? ā€

"I'm in the second class of the second grade, and my name is Edamame." The child looked at her pitifully with a crying voice.

Liu Xiaping frowned, "I'll take you to eat something first, and then you come back here and watch to see who took your lunch box, by the way, do you recognize your lunch box?" ā€

Edamame nodded timidly, blinking at her.

The boy's hands were frozen like ice cubes, but he didn't seem to feel cold at all, just screaming for hunger.

As a woman who had given birth to a child, she really couldn't see the child doing such evil, so she sighed lightly, said hello to Wang Dong, and went out with Edamame.

"Teacher, are you the new teacher?" Edamame was held by Liu Xiaping, his face was a little red, and he looked at this unfamiliar face curiously.

Liu Xiaping nodded, "I'm new here, and I should teach you in the future." ā€

Edamame only thinks that this teacher is really gentle, and she is much more beautiful than other female teachers.

Although he is only an eight or nine-year-old boy, he also knows what beauty and ugliness are, although the division between beauty and ugliness in this era is very vague, but he just thinks that this new teacher is very good-looking.

"You haven't eaten lunch in a few days?"

Liu Xiaping took Edamame directly to a simple private noodle restaurant outside the school, and ordered a bowl of meat noodles for the child, and then asked.

Edamame is obviously a little cramped, although this noodle restaurant is very simple, but a bowl of meat noodles costs six cents, for Edamame, this is a huge amount of money, and he is also a little embarrassed, so he frequently looks at Liu Xiaping.

The bowl of meat noodles at this house is quite large, and the noodles are at least three taels or more, and there is a poached egg lying on the noodles, and a few slices of fried pork belly exude an attractive taste.

Six cents for a bowl of noodles, this price is indeed a bit extravagant, after all, you can buy a pound of meat, and ordinary people will not come to patronize it at all.

But because the craftsmanship of this proprietress is really good, if you buy a meat noodle, she will also give a sausage, although there are only a few pieces of sausage, but the taste is very delicious.

Liu Xiaping only ate here once, and she liked the noodles here.

"Eat, why are you looking at me?" Liu Xiaping picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.

She could finish a large bowl of noodles, but the first thing she tasted was a sausage.

"Thank you, teacher." After all, edamame beans still couldn't resist the hunger and growled, and immediately began to bury their heads and eat noodles without any image.

The large slices of pork belly have been fried in advance, so they are fat but not greasy, and the taste is excellent.

Edamame chewed a piece of pork belly in his mouth, and he was so moved that he was about to cry.

I didn't expect that it was not yet the time of the Chinese New Year, and he would eat meat!

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Liu Xiaping saw that he was in a hurry to eat, and hurriedly shouted.

Edamame nodded embarrassedly, although he slowed down, he still ate faster than Liu Xiaping.

"You haven't told me yet, you've been hungry for a few days?"

"I've been hungry for four days, and I've been late every time I've been there for the past few days, and then my lunch box is gone."

Edamame began to shed tears while eating, and sniffed from time to time, apparently his lunch was missing, which made him very distressed.

Liu Xiaping frowned, "Is it time after dinner, and your lunch box pops up again?" ā€

Edamame nodded, obviously still a little angry, "The person who ate my lunch didn't even wash my lunch box, just threw it there, Teacher Zhao scolded him several times before, I didn't dare to say that it was my lunch box." ā€

The child complained aggrievedly, and ate his lunch, but he didn't even wash the lunch box, and asked him to wash it himself.

Half are hungry, and half are aggrieved.

"Well, tomorrow you mark your lunch box, and I'll help you watch it and see who's fishing in the troubled waters." Liu Xiaping patted the child's head and said lightly.

In fact, she knows very well that the only ones who do this kind of thing are students.

Because of poverty, some children in the school want to save their own food, so they will take advantage of the troubled waters when there are many people to eat and take other people's food, some just secretly eat the eggs or bacon in other people's lunch boxes, and some directly take away the lunch boxes together, and then quietly put them back after eating.

After all, if everyone's lunch box is not marked, it will all look the same, and there are so many students, and it is impossible for the teacher in charge of helping to heat up the meal to remember which student's lunch box looks like and what it looks like.

"Thank you, teacher!" Edamame stopped crying and happily began to eat noodles.

The kid didn't start eating noodles until he finished eating the meat, Liu Xiaping thought that he couldn't finish such a big bowl of noodles, and thought that he wouldn't hold on, but he didn't expect that the kid not only ate up the noodles, but also drank all the soup cleanly.

She shook her head, sure enough, this is still a growing child, and the amount of food is really amazing.

"Teacher, can I drink your soup?" Edamame almost licked his bowl clean, saw the soup in Liu Xiaping's bowl, licked his lips, and asked with some expectation.

Liu Xiaping shook her head, "If you don't have enough to eat, I can order you another bowl, but you can't eat the bottom of the bowl that I left." ā€

Edamame Doudou shook his head in disappointment and touched his bulging belly, "I'm already full, thank you, teacher, for inviting me to dinner." ā€

"Okay, let's go back first, and see if we can find your lunch box by the way." Liu Xiaping got up and paid, and then returned to school with Edamame.

At this time, the students in front of the window of the cafeteria were almost eating, and Edamame looked in a pile of lunch boxes, and soon found a lunch box that had not been cleaned, and shouted, "Teacher, this lunch box is mine, you see, there are marks I made here!" ā€

Edamame took the lunch box excitedly, pointed to the small five-pointed star engraved on the lid of the lunch box, and said angrily, "The person who stole the food didn't wash the dishes for me!" Hate to death! ā€

Liu Xiaping frowned, but she felt that it was not okay to go on like this.

Edamame is just one of many examples, and there are certainly other students who don't get their own meals and go hungry.

"Don't worry about it, you can't take care of it, these students' lunch boxes don't look any different, they rush over when they eat, and they can't see who is holding whose food at all, and many students just take a lunch box to eat."

Zhao Xiang shook his head after knowing this, but said a little helplessly.

They didn't find a way to stop this, and even deliberately let the students line up to get the meal, but this lunch box is almost the same, if it is not marked, I am afraid that the owner of the lunch box does not know what his lunch box looks like, and people who fish in troubled waters do exist, but basically you eat mine, I eat his, and he may be holding your lunch box.

The old headmaster rectified several times to no avail, so he could only go with these children.

It's just that there is one more person who has no food to eat, which means that someone may not have brought their own food but ate other people's things, which will cause Edamame to be hungry for several days, and if it goes on like this, it is not a way.

"In the final analysis, the conditions at the students' homes are not good, if there are conditions, it is good to eat out with their living expenses, where can we help them with hot meals."

"That's right, in the end, it's still poor, if you can afford to eat, who wants to eat other people's things."

……

During the office lunch break, the teachers were basically back.

Because some teachers may be far away, they simply live in the school, and there are also people like Liu Xiaping who live outside the school, and they can only get together during the lunch break to get to know each other, otherwise when the class time comes, there will be only two or three people left in the office at most.

Teacher Gao Xin was cutting her fingernails, and it was not surprising to hear what they were discussing.

Even that Teacher Fu is the same, Liu Xiaping looked at it and realized that it has only been two days, and this Teacher Fu is actually very familiar with Teacher Gao Xin.

"Everyone wants to be born in a good family without worrying about food and clothing, but how can it be so easy? Alas, this matter really has to be managed, if it doesn't seem like a way, it's always hungry, but it's not okay. ā€

The one who spoke was an older female teacher, who looked to be in her fifties, with a pair of glasses, and shook her head.

"What's the matter? It can't be managed. Teacher Gao didn't agree at all, "Why do you want to take this kind of trouble on your body?" It's enough for the principal to pay for free breakfast for them out of his own pocket, and he can't have to pay for this lunch, right? ā€

"The principal's pressure is not small, don't look at these steamed buns eating well, the principal's wife has made trouble about this several times."

"If I were a 10,000-yuan household, I would definitely be willing to help these children, but I have to rely on my mother's family to help myself, let alone help others."

……

The teachers were also idle and bored chatting casually, Liu Xiaping read the book for a while, and then suddenly asked, "How much is the living expenses of our children here for a week?" ā€

"The living expenses of the students in our class are about five cents a week, which can only be worth the money for two bowls of meat noodles for you, Mr. Liu." Gao Xin shook his head, but said meaningfully.

Liu Xiaping raised her eyebrows and glanced at this teacher Gao.

"Teacher Liu eats a bowl of noodles for six cents, and she is worthy of being a military wife in the army, and she has plenty of money in her pocket. Please go to eat another day, our requirements are not high, a bowl of meat noodles will be done. Teacher Fu said half-jokingly, but his eyes were staring at Liu Xiaping.

Liu Xiaping suddenly understood, she said why as soon as she came back, Teacher Gao and Teacher Fu looked at her strangely, and it was because she invited Edamame to eat a bowl of meat noodles.

Although Teacher Fu was joking in his words, he seemed a little aggressive, obviously trying to make her bleed for a treat.

"How can I have any money, this meat noodle is not something I can afford to eat every day, and I plan to bring food from home to eat like you tomorrow, so it's convenient."

Liu Xiaping smiled faintly and avoided the topic of treats.

If she was already familiar with her colleagues here, she wouldn't mind inviting everyone to a meal, but now that she had just arrived, she was not familiar with the people and things here.

Although she didn't know how to ask the teachers here, and it was right to invite them to dinner, this kind of deliberately mentioned way of entertaining made her very disgusted.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Liu, your husband is in the army, right? Why did you transfer to our school? ā€

"I applied for it when the school was assigned, and there was nothing strange about it." Liu Xiaping smiled faintly, and when she heard the bell of class start to ring, she packed up her textbooks and stood up to everyone, "I'm going to class." ā€

"Okay, go slowly."

Other teachers who had classes also got up to leave.

After a while, there were only two or three teachers left in the office.

"This Teacher Liu is really a rich man, he is willing to invite a strange student to eat a bowl of meat noodles for six cents, which is really good."

Teacher Gao cut his nails and said in an envious tone.

Wang Dong smiled, "Teacher Liu is kind-hearted, he can't see the student hungry, after all, the child is hungry and crying, as their teacher, you can't watch the student go to class hungry, right?" ā€

"Teacher Liu is bright and kind, so we can ask her for help if we have any difficulties in the future." Gao Xin put away the nail clippers with a smile, and then said to Wang Dong, "By the way, Mr. Wang, why don't you go and talk to Teacher Liu about this meal, our teacher will raise funds to open a small canteen in the school, and then we can solve the problem that these children can't eat, and we can eat in the canteen in the future, and it won't cost extra money!" ā€

Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, and before he could react to what Teacher Gao meant, he watched her leave slowly.

Liu Xiaping didn't know that she was about to be wronged, and at this time in the second-grade class, she frowned and looked at the mother and son who suddenly came running. (To be continued.) )
