Chapter 7 Hope Liao
After the things came up, Ren Ning chatted with Yuko Imasu while eating, because they had to rush back overnight, they ate faster, and after settling the account, they exchanged a few words with the boss and the two left in a hurry.
"It's eight o'clock fifteen, if it goes well, we can arrive at the school before ten o'clock" After getting on the bus, Imasu looked at the time and said, then handed the mobile phone to Ren Ning while starting the car: "Ren Jun told the principal that we will arrive at about ten o'clock, so that the principal will not be in a hurry." ”
"Hmm," Ren Ning nodded, and turned out to be the phone.
"I know, ten o'clock, okay, then I'll go to your dormitory and wait for you when the time comes, which is where Ren Jun will live in the future" The old man on the other end of the phone said happily, "Do you want to put the bath water in advance, Ren Jun?" ”
"My uncle, can you please stop doing this, it sounds disgusting!" Ren Ning complained to the old man with goosebumps.
"Hee-hee-hee......"
After hearing Yuko Imjuku's laughter, Ren Ning rolled his eyes: "Imasuku-san, please drive carefully." ”
After teasing the old man Songchuan a few more words, Ren Ning hung up the phone.
The car quickly drove away from the city and into the highway, and the vehicles became scarce, "Is Ren Jun nervous?" Imonjuku asked suddenly.
"Huh? Why did Imasuk-san say this? Ren Ning asked with a smile.
"Hmm... Renjun, I have a request. Yuko Imajuku didn't answer, but changed the subject.
"You say."
"I said before that I had seen Ren Jun's resume, and then, in fact, I am basically the same age as Ren Jun, and I am a few months older than Ren Jun......"
"Huh? Imjuku San is older than me? I can't see it at all, I thought it wouldn't be long after graduating from Imasuk-san University," Ren Ning said suddenly.
"Really? Hehe, it's been 5 years since I graduated," Yuko Imjuku said happily, "Wow, don't make trouble, let people finish talking." ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but it's true."
"Ahem, I continued, Ren Jun can call me Imasuksu or Yuko in the future, don't be so restrained" Imasuko Yuko's expression became serious, "Or call me Youjie, I am really grateful that Ren Jun can come here as a teacher, especially now that I am sure that Ren Jun is very serious about this work, thank you very much." ”
As if controlling her emotions, Yuko Imajuku took a few deep breaths and continued: "This school is very important to me, and I want to keep guarding it, but because of the lack of teachers, it has been very difficult for the school to maintain in recent years, and there are only a few teachers in themselves, and they are all very old gentlemen, if Ren Jun doesn't come, the school may be closed, so, thank you, Ren Jun." ”
Ren looked at Yuko Imajuku quietly, he could feel that there were other stories behind Yuko Imjuku's words, and there was a faint sadness in her mood, a feeling that he was familiar with.
Ren Ning turned his gaze to the window, silently looking at the lights flashing sporadically in the distance, and like this, a long time passed.
Yuko Imasuku also fell silent, and just when she thought that what she said was too heavy, she saw Ren Ning stretch out her fist towards her, and after she shook it for a moment, a hint of a smile crept up the corner of her mouth, and then she also stretched out her fist and touched Ren Ning gently.
After smiling at each other, the two seemed to have a tacit understanding and fell silent, and as the road entered the mountains, the road became rough, and Yuko Imasuku slowed down the speed for safety reasons.
There are few cars on the mountain roads at night, and they are silent, except for the sound of engines and tires passing over the road. It was in this tranquil atmosphere that the two entered the town where the school was located.
"Renjun, we'll be there soon."
"Really," Ren Ning looked outside for a while after hearing it, "You really didn't lie to me." ”
"Huh?" Yuko Imasuku looked at it with some doubts.
"Because it's really rural here......" Ren Ning said with a smile as he looked at the small settlements and low-rise houses that flashed by the roadside from time to time.
The buildings on the side of the road slowly increased, and they seemed to come to a relatively large settlement, "Have you arrived?" Ren Ning asked.
"Well, it's not far from the bridge. This is the central town of Hiramachi, the center of the area, and the post office and the city hall office are all here. ”
After getting off the bridge and walking a little further, Yuko Imajuku stopped the car in front of a small building with the lights on.
"Finally back, Ren-kun, we're here, this is where you'll live in the future," Yuko Imajuku said after turning off the car.
At this time, Ren Ning also saw the old man of Matsukawa who was now smiling at the door, he pushed the car door and got out of the car and hugged the old man who greeted him.
"Renjun, you're here!" The old man said happily.
Without waiting for Ren Ning to reply, the old man Songchuan pointed to Xiaolou and said, "Ren Jun, this is where you live, how about it?" ”
The small building in front of me looks like a forest hut, and the whole house is made up of huge logs divided in half, not only the walls and roof, but also the beautiful look.
"The wood used in this small building is made of high-quality logs selected from our mountain, and it looks very new after so many years of maintenance?" After seeing Ren Ning's somewhat surprised expression, the old man said very proudly.
Ren Ning was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Yuko Imasu fetching his suitcase from the trunk, and she looked very difficult to hold a big suitcase with her small size. Ren Ning didn't care to speak, and hurriedly went over to take the box: "Thank you, I'll do this myself." ”
"It's okay, Ren-kun," Yuko Imajuku said.
"Okay, don't make small talk with the principal outside, let's go in quickly" Yuko Imjuku glared at the old man Matsukawa, "Hurry up and settle down so that Ren Jun can rest early, principal, do you know how tired Ren Jun is from planes, trams and cars this day?" ”
The old man Matsukawa sneered and didn't speak, and the sudden strength of Yuko Imasuku surprised Ren Ning a little, and then the three of them walked towards the small building.
The small building, called Hope Liao, was built more than 20 years ago and was specially designed for school teachers to stay, with a total of 5 bedrooms, and occasionally students who could not go home due to rain and snow would stay for a day or two. It was built at a time when the private high school in Hiramchi (later referred to as Hirako) had the largest number of students, and it was also the period when the economy was at its most prosperous, and everyone was full of hope for the future, hence the name Hope Ryo.
However, as the economy came to a standstill and the population aged, the number of students began to decline year by year, and teachers either got married or left, and the dormitory slowly became empty.
But fortunately, there has always been maintenance, the house is well maintained, this time in order to meet Ren Ning and specially renovated, replaced some old furniture and appliances, so the whole liao looks good.
After entering the house, the old man Matsukawa said to Ren Ning in Chinese: "How about Yuko beautiful, do you want to thank me?" But you're not bad, it's only been a long time and the relationship is so good, well, it's good, it's good. ”
"Old man, can you not be like this, it's very obscene, the relationship between me and Imasukus-san is just a very normal colleague relationship."
"Haha, young man, don't be shy, I'll cheer you on."
"Old man, you're still so unserious, I'm going to tell Yuko Imjuku." Looking at the old man with a lewd expression on his face, Ren Ning could only threaten him.
"Yo Yo!"
followed them Ren Ning to the bedroom prepared for him, the room was quite large, all kinds of furniture were available, and a large bed was placed by the window, which looked very comfortable.
"The room is still satisfied, right?" After Ren Ning put down his luggage, Old Man Matsukawa asked.
"Well, I'm very satisfied, thank you," Ren Ning thanked.
Seeing that everything was going well, the old man also put his mind at ease, and took Ren Ning to familiarize himself with the other rooms and various utensils before leaving.
Ren Ning sent them to the door, and the old man Songchuan told him to have a good rest, he didn't have to get up early tomorrow, there was food in the refrigerator, and he would eat whatever he wanted if he was hungry in the morning, and he would let people come over and call him for lunch at noon.
After sending the old man away, Ren Ning said goodbye to Yuko Imasuki again, "Be careful on the road to Imasukyou, Imasukin has really worked hard for you today." ”
"It's nothing, then I'll go back and see you tomorrow." Then tap the throttle and the car quickly disappears into the night.
However, Ren Ning was stunned in place, because of this sentence, Yuko Imajuku said it in Chinese.
