42. Of course I do

From the admission report to the assignment of a dormitory to participating in military training, everything went smoothly, and Qian Xiaoying quickly adapted to university life. Her clothing, cosmetics, daily necessities, and daily necessities are in the middle of the range compared to her classmates in the same dormitory, which at least makes her not looked down on because of her material problems; Usually she talks very little, she is very polite to everyone, and she is polite enough, which makes her popular not bad. Unlike her classmates, who were keen to socialize, she was not very close to anyone and never talked about family matters, which quickly made her the most mysterious person in the dormitory and even in the class.

Qian Xiaoying deliberately kept her distance from her classmates. On the one hand, in the new environment of the university, she has achieved the "new life" she has always longed for, where no one knows her past, which gives her confidence and dignity, and she enjoys this feeling; On the other hand, she doesn't want to waste time, she doesn't participate in activities such as gossip and shopping games, except for class, review, eating and sleeping, she spends all her time on work-study. For her, completing four years of college is a constant race against time, and she must raise enough money before the school charges for the next semester, and she doesn't count on anyone but on her own.

In the three months after entering the school, Qian Xiaoying has worked as a café waiter, elderly companion, tutor and other part-time jobs, but as soon as she returns to the dormitory, she reads books except sleeping, and never mentions the matter of part-time employees to her sleepers. With the increasing experience of part-time work, she gradually concluded that it is still the most suitable tutor for herself, whether it is for primary school students or middle school students, she is competent, and the tutor does not have high physical requirements, which can effectively avoid affecting the next day's study and work due to physical overdraft.

It's good to be a tutor, but the competition is fierce, especially near the school, the price is very low, and the owner's requirements are getting higher and higher. Later, Qian Xiaoying simply began to look for work in farther places, and put up signs on the roads near some high-end residential areas to recommend herself, so that she could effectively avoid competition with students from the same school, and secondly, she would not have to be oppressed by those intermediaries.

Now that the first half semester of her freshman year has passed, Qian Xiaoying has been unable to make ends meet in her personal finances, and her savings have been decreasing.

At dusk that day, Qian Xiaoying still came to the side of the road she had chosen in advance, held a piece of white cardboard with "Tutor for Primary School Students" written on it in front of her chest with both hands, and stood there straight with her legs together. So far, she had been standing here for a week, but strangely there were no inquiries, but she didn't give up, and her sixth sense told her that there must be work here.

It was already dark, and Qian Xiaoying knew that if no one came to consult after this rush hour, there would be no drama today. Just when she felt a little deflated, a BMW sedan slowly stopped on the side of the road not far from Qian Xiaoying, and a capable man in a suit who looked like he was in his early forties got out of the car and slowly walked to Qian Xiaoying.

"Sir, do you need a tutor?" Qian Xiaoying suppressed the joy in her heart and took the initiative to greet the visitor.

"Well," the man nodded, "what can you teach?" ”

"I teach elementary school students, and I can teach all classes!"

"You're a college student?"

"Yes, I'm going to school now." Qian Xiaoying replied neatly that foreign students are her best business card.

"Oh...... How much do you charge as a tutor? ”

"A class lasts for 2 hours, 50 yuan."

"It's not expensive." The man nodded.

"Well, my price is very competitive, may I ask you, sir, are you a son or a daughter?"

"Son."

"Isn't he good at studying?"

"Yes, it's not good, so I want to find him a tutor...... "The man paused and looked at Qian Xiaoying, "I want to ask, why are you standing here looking for a job?" Isn't it easier to find an intermediary company? ”

"I've been to an intermediary company," Qian Xiaoying replied quickly: "I have to pay a lot of intermediary fees, not to mention that it's not reliable." ”

"Oh." The man nodded again.

"Well," Qian Xiaoying looked at the other party eagerly, "then are you willing to give me this job?" ”

"Yes. If you don't mind, let's get in the car and talk, shall we? The man pointed to the car on the side of the road.

"Okay."

The man led Qian Xiaoying into the co-pilot's seat, and he sat in the driver's seat, the two introduced themselves first, and Qian Xiaoying learned that the other party's name was Zhang Desheng, the manager of a foreign trade company. Zhang Desheng told Qian Xiaoying that his son is 11 years old this year and is in the fourth grade.

"My son, he is very playful, he is not good at homework, I am usually too busy with work, and I don't have time to care about him......" Zhang Desheng sighed, a little worried.

"What about his mother?" Qian Xiaoying asked.

"I'm single now."

"Oh......"

Qian Xiaoying found that her question was a bit abrupt, and she was about to say something, but Zhang Desheng didn't care and asked, "Have you been a tutor before?" ”

"I've done it," Qian Xiaoying cut straight to the point, "Mr. Zhang, if you give your son a lesson, how should you arrange your work and rest time?" ”

"Every night from six to eight o'clock."

"How many days a week?"

"Seven days is preferable...... Of course, you can take a break if you have something to do. Zhang Desheng said.

"No, no, I'm fine, I'm never fine at night!" Qian Xiaoying doesn't want to rest, she can earn more money by taking more classes for one more day!

"Well, that's good, if you want to pay for the lecture, I'll double it for you on the basis of your quote."

Zhang Desheng said this in a flat tone, but when Qian Xiaoying heard it, her heart sank, she had come into contact with the kind of parents who wanted to take a little money to hunt for beauty, if she was willing to earn that kind of money, then she would not be her current self a long time ago.

"Mr. Zhang, I think you must have misunderstood, I only work as a tutor and don't do anything else." Qian Xiaoying was about to get out of the car after speaking.

"You think too much about classmates," Zhang Desheng smiled slightly, "The reason why I added money to you is because my son is too naughty and difficult to teach." ”

Qian Xiaoying had already pushed open the car door, but when she heard this, she stopped, turned her head to look at Zhang Desheng and asked, "Is it really just this reason?" ”

"Of course." Zhang Desheng nodded.

"But," Qian Xiaoying questioned, "If you can afford the money, you can find a very professional teacher?" Why are you looking for me? ”

"You're quite right! Before you, I was indeed looking for excellent teachers from various schools, but unfortunately," Zhang Desheng looked a little helpless, "they finally quit, just a week ago, just one resigned." ”

"But ......," Qian Xiaoying frowned, "If they can't do it, I'm afraid I won't be able to teach them even more." ”

"To be honest, I don't really hope much for you, but your insistence makes me think I should give you a chance, maybe it will be a win-win situation?"

"My insistence ......" Qian Xiaoying looked at Zhang Desheng puzzled, "I don't understand." ”

"I pass by this road almost every day, and the first time I saw you was a week ago, and you were standing there with cardboard in hand, and you were standing up straight even when no one looked at you...... This shows that you are a girl with perseverance and perseverance in doing things, and when I passed by yesterday, I said to myself, if I can still see you today, I will ask you to be my son's tutor. Zhang Desheng explained the reason.

"That's ......"

"Well, how about classmate Qian Ying, would you like to come and help me and teach my son well?" Zhang Desheng looked at Qian Xiaoying with a smile.

"For the sake of money, of course I do!" Qian Xiaoying also smiled, "What's more, you are so sincere!" I just hope I don't let you down! ”

"Deal!" Zhang Desheng smiled, "What's the matter?" Go to my house for your first class now? ”

"Okay!" Qian Xiaoying nodded happily in agreement.
