In the teacher's office of Red Star Elementary School, Ran Qiuye held the steaming porcelain cup with both hands and sneezed, because she had just been assigned to work at Red Star Elementary School this year, and according to the default rules in the office, the desk next to the door with the worst environment was assigned to her to use.

Sitting next to the door, whenever someone comes in and out, not only the work will be affected, but the temperature difference between cold and hot will not even be able to bear the body.

The weather in the capital begins to cool down after October, and with every time the door is opened, Ran Qiuye has to experience what it is like to feel like a whistling cold wind into his neck.

The school will start lighting the stove on November 7th, and it will have to wait another three weeks from now. Just now, Ran Qiuye had already made up her mind that she would bring the scarf that her mother knitted for her tomorrow anyway, and no longer care whether other teachers would laugh at her.

Knock, knock, knock, three short knocks on the door interrupted Ran Qiuye's progress in reviewing the text.

"Please come in."

Ran Qiuye shrank her neck and shouted, which was also one of her duties sitting at the door.

As the black lacquered wooden door was slowly pushed open, a young man who was almost the height of the door walked in with his head bowed and his hands behind his back, and his burly figure coupled with the unique scar on his face immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room.

A middle-aged male teacher sitting by the window stood up, his vigilant gaze looking up and down the young man who had entered the room, as if he wanted to see that he was ugly.

"Little comrade, are you looking for someone?"

"Sorry to disturb everyone. I am the elder brother of Teacher Ran Qiuye's student, and I came to school today to ask for leave for my child. The young man replied with his head bowed a little shyly.

The person who came was Li Guoqing, recently the grain store has a new batch of grain, the manpower is too busy, our eldest brother went to the grain store in the morning to ask for leave, the leader did not give approval. When it was time for lunch, he said that he had to work overtime at night as a condition to get the leader to agree to grant him two hours of leave in the afternoon.

Ran Qiuye, who was sitting on the chair, looked up at the young man behind her half-sideways, her tall body made her feel suffocated, and when Li Guoqing lowered his head, the two of them looked at each other, Ran Qiuye immediately recognized the young man as Li Tong's eldest brother, got up and dragged a stool from the side and said.

"You are Comrade Li Guoqing, the eldest brother of Li Tong in my class, right? You may be seated. ”

"Well, it's me, Teacher Ran, hello." Li Guoqing sat down with his body bent.

Several other teachers in the room saw that Ran Qiuye had confirmed that the young man was really a family member of the student, and they all breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed their vigilance, they couldn't blame them for reacting so strongly, and blamed Li Guoqing for the scars on his face that were terrifying.

A scar about three inches long on the right side of his face, from a distance, looked like a dark red millipede lying on his face.

What's even more terrifying is that every time Li Guoqing speaks, this dark red centipede seems to shake its body, crawling out of his ears and burrowing into its mouth.

Who can watch it and not be afraid?

Li Guoqing naturally knew that the way he spoke would scare people in broad daylight, so he would keep his head down when talking to others.

It was mentioned before that Li Tong's eldest brother was not good at studying at a young age, and he was reluctant to go to work, and later the family dragged him to the army to become a soldier. Although his academic performance is not good, Li Guoqing has always been afraid and respected for the profession of teacher.

Since Ran Qiuye visited his home that time, Li Guoqing's heart has lived in a girl with an ordinary, demure and intellectual appearance, and two ponytails.

In the dream, the two climbed the snow-capped mountains together, saw the sea, and hugged and kissed each other under the witness of the mountain god and the dragon lord and made a marriage contract.

The mountains and the sea oath, forever united.

"Comrade Li Guoqing, it's great that you can come over, Li Tong and Bang Terrier didn't come to school today, I heard the students in the class say that the two of them fought again yesterday, can you tell me if there is really such a thing?" Ran Qiuye looked at Li Guoqing with some annoyance and asked.

Ran Qiuye was in a bad mood today, because he had a small quarrel with his mother at the dinner table in the morning because of a blind date, and then when he arrived at school, he learned from the math teacher that two students in the class were absent.

It's just a stick terrier who is absent from class, and Li Tong, who has just returned to school less than a week after sick leave, was also absent from class, so angry that Ran Qiuye's face collapsed at that time.

After asking Jiang Tianliang, Lu Mingtao, and Li Shujian, who were in the same hospital as Li Tong and them in the class, the reason for their absenteeism naturally couldn't be hidden.

Looking at Ran Qiuye's watery eyes, Li Guoqing was ashamed to say that he had fallen, and told Ran Qiuye everything that happened in the courtyard yesterday.

"Is the uncle in your hospital the one who came back from the hospital with you last time, I look very good, I didn't expect to do things without distinguishing between right and wrong."

"Don't talk about him, the third boy was severely taught by my mother because of the fight this time, and I guess he is still lying in bed. Teacher Ran, do you think the third boy can afford two days off in this situation? The more Li Guoqing spoke, the more relaxed he became, and he turned his hand behind his back to the front of him, revealing that he was still carrying a net bag with apples in his hand.

"This is a little bit of our family's heart, thank you Teacher Ran for taking care of my sister last time, and the three boys really caused you a lot of trouble during this time."

"What are you doing here, no, no, you better take it back and give it to your younger brothers and sisters to eat." Ran Qiuye grabbed the net pocket apple that Li Guoqing had just put down on the desk and pushed it back, but Li Guoqing came to give gifts today, except for asking Li Tong for leave, how could he give up halfway.

"Just a few apples, this is a little bit of our family's heart for you, Mr. Ran, you can accept it."

"How can this be, the school has a rule, and teachers cannot accept gifts from students' parents under any pretext."

"No, no, it's not a gift, it's a heart, to express our family's gratitude to you."

"Comrade Li Guoqing, you don't want to watch me make mistakes, do you? I've already received your family's wishes, but you should take them back with you. ”

"But, I'm, I'm."

Looking at Li Guoqing's scratching of his ears and cheeks, Ran Qiuye suddenly felt that although the scars on Li Tong's eldest brother's face were scary, he was still a little cute. In the end, he couldn't bear to look at his embarrassed appearance, Ran Qiuye reached out and picked out the smallest apple from his net pocket and put it on his work.

"Okay, I've already received your wishes, and I've also accepted the apples I sent, so it's okay, Comrade Li Guoqing?"

Li Guoqing looked at Ran Qiuye and then at the apple on the desk and said with relief: "Okay, okay, then Teacher Ran, you are busy first, and I will go back first." ”

"Don't leave yet, Li Tong's leave note hasn't been written yet, I have paper and pen here, you can write it here, save yourself another trip." Ran Qiuye took out the notebook issued by the school from the desk and handed it to Li Guoqing along with the pencil in his hand.

There was still a little temperature left on the pencil, Li Guoqing was very nervous to write a leave note to Li Tong one by one, and the more he looked at it after writing, the more dissatisfied he became, and finally left the teacher's office as if he had escaped.

Looking at the twisted font on the notebook, Ran Qiuye couldn't help frowning slightly.
