Chapter 27: Principal Gu's Behavior
Listening to Huo Mingjie's words, the old man was slightly stunned, and after a while, he nodded with relief and said:
"You're right, for the other children in our town, there is still a way out of learning......
Speaking of this, the old man looked at the youngest son and eldest grandson in front of him again, opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he just turned around:
"You're hungry, I'll get you something to eat!"
Huo Chengyin is the best at observing words and feelings, and he knows his grandfather very well, and when he sees his appearance at this time, he knows that this is something hidden in his heart.
He is very measured when he gets along with outsiders on weekdays, but at this time, he directly grabbed his grandfather and said straight to the point:
"Don't be busy...... If there's anything you want to say, just ask! ”
When Old Man Huo heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said directly:
"As you know from the school in town, the old house from thirty or forty years ago is not only broken by a few pieces of glass. It's not safe for kids to read here! ”
"The town wanted to build a new school building several times, but it couldn't come up with 20,000 yuan......
In the current 04 years, a school that does not need a microcomputer room, a playground, and does not need to add various new teaching aids, save a little bit and only build a row of bungalows as a classroom, 20,000 yuan is enough!
But for this barren town with a permanent population of less than 1,000 people, the finances are already so tight that they can't even take out 20,000 yuan......
Hearing this, Huo Chengyin nodded without hesitation, and responded in a big way;
"Okay, grandpa, don't worry, I'll make up for how much is missing!"
Huo Chengyin is generous to outsiders, not to mention the old man at home.
With these two salaries, Huo Chengyin still has some money in his hands, and he can get 20,000 yuan!
Huo Mingjie on the side also nodded with a smile, and answered:
"I'll do it anyway, I don't need any money right now...... I'll add another 20,000 yuan to install a few electric fans and buy some teaching aids for the school! ”
It's a good thing to donate money to build a school, even if you can't learn to build it everywhere like Principal Gu for the time being, but this is also his alma mater, and it's no problem to do your best!
Hearing this, the old man looked at his youngest son and said with a pleased smile:
"Okay, I have to thank you for the students in town!"
When Huo Chengyin heard this, he said with a smile on the side:
"If Grandpa wants to thank you, why don't you get something to eat. My second uncle and I caught the train, but we didn't care about eating. ”
When the old man heard this, he hurriedly responded, got up and walked towards the kitchen, and muttered:
"If you don't come back to say hello in advance, there are some cabbage and artichoke left at home now...... Let's get some cabbage to boil potatoes today, and when the wind and sand stop tomorrow, I will buy meat to make a big stew for you! ”
Huo Mingjie and Huo Chengyin did not dislike it, but responded with some expectation.
Mr. Huo is not a local, but he can cook a few local dishes that are not too authentic. For the uncle and nephew, it is a hometown dish that is nostalgic from time to time outside......
-------------------
The sandstorm wasn't big, but it was quite long-lasting. It was about noon on the third day that it stopped.
At this time, the whole Leiwan Town looks a little gray and yellow, and the houses, trees, roads and fields are all loess and gravel.
As long as a person walks around outside at this time, his whole body will be covered with loess dust, as if he has just come out of the ground.
But even so, the town has finally resumed life and production.
The old man was reluctant to let his youngest son and eldest grandson eat cabbage and artichoke for two days in a row, and ran out to buy them as soon as the wind and sand stopped. If others asked, they bluntly said that the two children in the family had returned.
Leiwan Town is not big, and the news of Huo Mingjie's return has spread after a while.
This is not a small piece of news in this town.
Especially when other people know that the youngest son of the Huo family is now a star and has made money to repair the school in the town, it will be even more sensational!
Basically, in the afternoon, there is an endless stream of people coming to visit the door.
There are those who are simply curious to come and have a look, those who inquire about Huo Mingjie's current income, and those who want to go out with their uncle and nephew next year when they see that they are making money.
Except for a few who have bad intentions, the others basically come with good intentions.
There is no need for Huo Mingjie to come forward for these things, no matter who comes, Huo Chengyin will go to deal with it with a smile.
Huo Chengyin, who is very popular outside, is naturally not difficult to deal with the villagers in these towns.
is such a big town, and the character is also clear. But all those requests that can help, have good character, and are not embarrassed, Huo Chengyin will help them easily.
As for the other people who have their own careful thoughts and bad intentions, they have never been too careful, Huo Chengyin fooled the past in a few words.
But sometimes, there are some things that Huo Chengyin can't fool by relying alone......
Huo Mingjie had just gotten up from bed this morning, yawned and walked out of the back room with a chicken nest, and saw three little girls sitting on chairs outside.
Seeing Huo Mingjie walk out, the three little girls turned their eyes in unison, with eagerness and joy in their eyes.
Huo Mingjie, who was still a little sleepy-eyed just now, looked at the three little girls sitting outside at this time, and the whole person immediately woke up, only to feel a tingling on his scalp.
The three little girls are the same age as Huo Mingjie, and they are all his classmates from childhood to adulthood.
O conscience of heaven and earth! Huo Mingjie has known that he is good-looking since he was a child, and he is very measured when getting along with female classmates, and even deliberately alienated.
But even so, there are still moths to the fire......
Huo Chengyin, who was on the side, came to his second uncle's side, lowered his voice and said:
"Second uncle, these three are staring at you directly, I shouldn't make any moves, I can't leave......"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head and said:
"Fortunately, the high school classmate who threatened to jump off the building if he didn't marry you heard that he was locked up by his family and didn't let him come, otherwise the house would have been more lively!"
Hearing this, Huo Mingjie frowned, and said helplessly:
"Locked up? There's no need for that! ”
This makes me feel like a vixen who can confuse people's minds.
"It's not just because of you...... It is said that the little girl has some kind of will disorder, and she can't control her emotions, and she used to jump off the building to marry you because of this. ”
This category of illness is collectively referred to as mental illness.
"Originally, the family wanted to hide it, but I heard that the illness has been serious in the past year, and the family can only borrow money everywhere, thinking about sending it to a big hospital for treatment." Huo Chengyin continued to explain.
Hearing this, Huo Mingjie couldn't help but think of the little girl who was the same age as himself.
It's no wonder that the little girl, who was obviously quite introverted and shy before, suddenly became so strange......
Huo Mingjie sighed lightly, and then said:
"It's a classmate, you can help me send some money, so that they don't have to pay it back in a hurry!"
Hearing this, Huo Chengyin nodded without the slightest hesitation and said:
"Okay, I'll go get some money in the afternoon and send it over!"
