Chapter 18: The Tao is Ruthless [18]

She dreamed that she was on the Titanic, a majestic giant ship that broke through the waves and set sail in the wind. At sunset, the rose-purple clouds spread out on the autumn sunset, and she stood on the bow of the boat with her arms outstretched and facing the evening breeze, and a man hugged her from behind, and he said in a rustling voice, "I love you for a long, long time." ”

She felt so happy, and she felt that this happiness was familiar, like cutting a small strawberry cake into two in the afternoon light, and the berry-red fruit pulp slowly flowing down the cut. She was so happy with the sunshine, she said she had to draw a curtain, and then said something to the person she ate the cake with - that was the kind of happiness at that time.

She finally turned around excitedly, wanting to see the face of the person who said she loved her, but before she could see his face clearly, she fell into the dark blue night all around, only the stars in the sky, the Titanic finally sank into the water, she was lying on a soaked deck, she was so cold that her teeth chattered, but she saw that the last lifeboat went in the opposite direction, and a man was pushed down from the stern of the lifeboat, and there was a black mole in the corner of the man's right eye, which turned out to be Yi Youqian. The person who pushed him had a black tulip brooch pinned to his snow-white fur - that person turned out to be Lin Yiyi!

"I'm sorry, I lost my ......" she was startled, and suddenly a voice came from the edge of the deck, she looked down, Peng Youbin struggled to grasp the edge of the deck, but the ends of his hair were covered with countless frost particles. She wanted to hold him, but he had frozen to death, and he didn't even finish the last sentence, so he let go, and she saw him sink, sink little by little, into the boundless darkness, but in front of her was a warm golden afternoon light......

When Siyu woke up the next day, his mind was still groggy.

The fragments of the dream flashed before her eyes, only the two strawberry tarts left on the bedside table, but they were already cold, and it turned out that they were now on the third day.

It's no wonder that Peng and Bin Shenlong saw each other.

She knew what she was going to do today, so she wore her long hair neatly, put on high heels and a tailored slim suit, and wore sunglasses and lipstick. Only then did she take a taxi to the branch, because it was originally to be inspected first and then discussed, but she discussed with Feng Jing yesterday to change the order, and many matters of the business plan yesterday had actually been discussed, and it was still necessary to finalize and the field trip of some projects - that is, to patrol Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School.

So she had to dress for a completely different feel from the alumni association.

But today, after the meeting to determine the plan, Feng Jing discussed: "In fact, the best way to visit the school is to have a meal in the school cafeteria, and then find a random class to listen to a half-day class and pull a few students to chat for a few minutes." ”

She avoided the topic and said, "It's going to be lunchtime, right?" I didn't eat breakfast, and it just so happened that no one invited General Manager Yang to dinner today, right? Then Sister Feng will find a few people to eat with. ”

Feng Jing didn't ask anything, and directly called the senior management of the branch, those old fritters were also very face-saving, Siyu was too lazy to speak during the banquet, and a few old foxes automatically enlivened the atmosphere.

After the old fritters left, Siyu discussed with Feng Jing again: "Sister Feng, it's the students' lunch break, and Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School is also in the city center, why don't we walk over slowly and consume food?" ”

In the face of Siyu's impermanence, Feng Jing was not angry, but said: "It's okay, exercising more is good for health." ”

In fact, Siyu still doesn't want to go to Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School again, even if she is so glamorous now.

Siyu walked slowly in high heels, the most temperamental ten-centimeter high heels, Feng Jing also walked slowly with her with a briefcase, but Feng Jing was wearing flat-soled Oxford shoes, Siyu thought, forget it, you should be your own sin.

Just walked slowly, from the intertwined Yihua Plaza, to the green banyan tree-lined avenue, and finally arrived at the Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School with white plaques and red letters. Siyu put on sunglasses, but she felt that her whole body was lazy, too lazy to move, too lazy to walk in. It was Feng Jing who seemed to see her thoughts, so Feng Jing took the initiative to call the principal at the school gate.

It's still the principal, it's just that there are more wrinkles and gray hair, or the principal who can indiscriminately point at the students and scold them, it's just a hairy cat, not even a paper tiger with a strong outside or a fox under the guise of a tiger, paper tigers and foxes don't bully the soft and afraid of the hard - he saw Siyu and Feng Jing greeted him with a smile on his face, and his smiling appearance was really difficult to match with the way he scolded himself.

Siyu looked at Feng Jing talking to the principal in front, and then she saw the principal's smiling eyes open in shock, he glanced at Siyu, and then he smiled again, nodded and walked over, and flattered Siyu: "It turns out that this is Mrs. Yi Shao, I can see you in my life, I am really fortunate to have three lives, you not only have a beautiful appearance, but also young and promising!" ”

How could Siyu vaguely remember that he also said that he had corrupted the school spirit? So Siyu didn't even give the principal a straight look, and stepped on the stone-paved school road with high heels, and there were students in school uniforms walking past them on the school road, looking at the abnormally smiling principal and the two working women in shock.

Feng Jing also retreated to the right rear of Siyu with interest, this principal was also keen on hot face and cold buttocks, he followed Siyu to the left rear, and began to talk to Siyu about the school history of Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School: "Mrs. Yi, the predecessor of our school originated from the Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty, and it officially became a girls' ......school in the Republic of China."

Siyu looked at the red and white shadows in front of her, she just listened quietly as she walked, until the self-righteous principal said: "Our school has repeatedly been the top student in the college entrance examination in recent years, and our school is also the only way to enter a famous school from Rongcheng, for example, the legendary Jiang Xinyu three years ago was admitted to Shanghai-Nanjing University with the tenth score in the city's first province, which is a proud achievement, right?" Just like the young lady is also in the management, and she also knows the necessity of being admitted to a good university, the capital of our Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School is here, by the way, I don't know which university the young lady graduated from? After we move, we will expand our enrollment so that the students below can be on par with you. ”

"Huh! Wrong" Siyu stopped, her red lips hooked disdainfully, she clearly saw the principal's panic through her sunglasses, and he asked helplessly: "Young lady, where, where is wrong?" ”

Siyu continued to walk forward, and she said lightly: "There are four fallacies. First, with the current management style of your school, I believe that your so-called glory has passed away with the east of the river, right? Second, what kind of champion are you, you have fulfilled your duty as a student, worthy of her parents' money, her talent, and her efforts, which she deserves, not a strange story, let alone a legend; Third, we never look at the strength when selling futures, but the so-called market value in the eyes of the public, as for the fourth......" Siyu stopped, she turned her head to the left, stared at the principal's panicked eyes through her sunglasses, and she said word by word: "The contemptible person did go to Shanghai-Nanjing University for a while, but it was only a night class - because, seven years ago, I was expelled from your school, that is, Rongcheng No. 1 Middle School." ”

The headmaster finally shut up.

Siyu walked around the major teaching areas, but I didn't meet Chen Yuanyuan, but many classes are taught by young teachers, what physics, mathematics, politics, geography, chemistry, a bunch of knowledge that people can't bear to look at, but students have to rush into it even on weekends, of course Siyu will not be in the mood to listen to the class, just walk around hastily.

But she also knows better than anyone about the evils of private schools.

Private is for private interests.

Eventually, she got to the place she often saw in her dreams.

On the second floor of the cafeteria, there is still a row of huge turquoise glass windows, through which you can see the white river under the banyan leaves outside the window, and the river still goes east every year, even if time abandons people.

The glass window was wide open, and a few green banyan leaves stretched out and peeked in, like the puffed skirt of a ballet dancer. The warm afternoon light was the brightest spotlight on the stage, pouring honey-like golden yellow on the tables and chairs by the window. The banyan leaves cast a shallow silhouette, as if a man was holding a spoon but stopped in mid-air for a while, but at any moment he was about to scoop up the honey.

Siyu sat down in the position in the dream, she was wearing sunglasses but looked out of the window habitually, it was class time, only the principal and Feng Jing stood beside her in the cafeteria, but they were all holding their breath. She suddenly said lightly: "Sister Feng, you sit down first, please remember my relocation opinion." ”

Feng Jing knew what she was saying, so she sat down as she said, and quickly took out her laptop from her briefcase, only to listen to her say slowly: "First, check all the related households in the school staff, and bring out the results of the stay, when is the age and seniority proportional?" The others, no matter how many years they have been mixed up, are all fried; Second, it is forbidden for any staff member of the school to accept sponsorship fees without permission, and those who lack money come to Shanghai to talk to Mr. Peng; The above two points are the requirements for old workers, have you written them down? ”

Feng Jing nodded. Siyu continued: "Third, regular employees are required, regardless of gender, bachelor's degree or above; Fourth, the school partners are open to bidding, prohibiting the trust relationship to find canteen contracting, and don't let me find out what commissary prices are higher than Yi's currency standard, but I don't know whose pocket the more money goes into; Fifth, students are students, but at the same time, they are also consumers, customers are God, please put yourself in the right position, don't say look down on or give up on any student, more importantly, respect students, my country has clear regulations, so don't let me hear that anyone is forced to take so-called self-study classes in school on weekends and write so-called voluntary weekend self-study applications; Sixth, and most importantly, considering the historical value and commercial value of the old campus, the junior high school will be retained in this relocation, and only the high school will be relocated to the suburbs. ”

The principal's face turned white, and he hurriedly asked, "Is there only one principal?" Is that the same plaque? ”

Siyu didn't even turn her head, she said calmly, "It turns out that Mr. Principal would also ask such a stupid question. I believe it's time for Mr. Chancellor to retire, right? Yi's has never been short of talents, but it is just to find two people with management experience and educators, and this amount of funds is still available. As for the plaque, the old campus can be renamed Rongcheng No. 1 Experimental Middle School. ”

It's a no-brainer, but it's more refreshing to say.

Feng Jing typed suddenly, and she asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

The warm afternoon light sprinkled on Siyu's body, and her whole body relaxed: "Such a bright sunshine, you have to draw a curtain ......"

A hint of coolness slipped across her face, and she was stunned, and even she didn't know why. Her throat choked, and at the end, she just said: "Let's do this today, Sister Feng, you go back first, these rectifications can also be arranged, and I will go back to the hotel by myself later." As for Mr. Headmaster, I'm going to be alone and quiet, and you can start packing up. ”

Siyu still came to such a strange and familiar place.

She sat like this, looking out the window at the warm breeze and the sun, as if she had been sitting like this for many years, and that someone would always come and share this happiest time with her, but she had come quietly to this day, and she was still waiting here quietly. Even that person was gone, maybe he couldn't catch up with her, but maybe it was because she had forgotten herself, and even she didn't know how that time had disappeared.

Some students kept walking by, constantly looking at Siyu with curiosity.

She still kept a posture and looked out the window, and she still stayed there quietly.
