Chapter 20: The Teacher Comes to Persuade You
Teacher Zheng silently clenched her fists, and she was blasted out by the unreasonable Jiang Li the first few times she came to the door.
This time I came here with a lot of determination and was ready to be humiliated.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Li was unusual, and took the initiative to invite her in.
"It's Mr. Zheng, come in and say something."
A kerosene lamp was lit in the hall, and Jiang Yi's small figure was busy in the stove room.
I didn't find a chance to enter the door a few times before, but as soon as I came in today, Mr. Zheng sighed in his heart.
The conditions in Jiang Yi's house are too poor, the house is dilapidated, and there is not a single good furniture in the house.
Jiang Li swept the dust on the chair with a feather duster, and politely invited Teacher Zheng to sit down.
She also poured her a glass of water for the first time, although the enamel cup fell off the paint, and it was only the simplest cool white open, Teacher Zheng was still flattered and stretched out his hands to take it.
"Thank you, thank you, Sister Jiang Yi, you are so polite!"
Sister Jiang Yi is the name of Jiang Li, Jiang Yi's sister, if their mother is still there, it is Jiang Yi's mother who entertains Teacher Zheng.
"Yes, is there something wrong with Teacher Zheng coming over so late?"
Jiang Li was a little nervous in her heart, she had plans to let her younger brother go to school, but it was not this time.
She is still in confinement, with two children to bring, work in the fields, and housework at home to be done.
"That's the case, Sister Jiang Yi, don't get excited."
In the past, when Teacher Zheng came over, as long as she opened her mouth, Jiang Li would push her roughly, and told her to get out, not even giving her a chance to speak, let alone basic respect for the teacher.
Teacher Zheng likes Jiang Yi from the bottom of his heart, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to visit the thatched house three times, and she also came to the door three times for Jiang Yi.
What happened before was too unpleasant, Teacher Zheng was a little stunned when she saw Jiang Li, she was originally a teacher with good oral talent, but her scalp was numb when she saw Jiang Li.
"Jiang Yi is really a good seedling for studying, and his family conditions are really difficult, I applied with the school again and again, and the school finally approved his tuition and miscellaneous fees."
Teacher Zheng brought this good news with excitement, and she raised her head and looked at Jiang Li expectantly.
"But ......"
As soon as Jiang Li spoke, Teacher Zheng's bright eyes instantly dimmed.
"As long as you let Jiang Yi go to school, I can also apply to the school for a subsidy for outstanding students from poor families. It means that he doesn't have to pay a penny to go to school, and even the living expenses are contracted by the school. ”
This subsidy has only one place a year for each school, and it is very difficult to apply for it.
It is necessary not only to write all kinds of supporting materials, but also to approve the superior leaders, starting with the class teacher, the director of teaching, the vice principal, and the principal.
They also have to go to the village to visit and confirm, and they have to find the village captain, the village head, and the women's federation to sign.
The whole process is extremely troublesome, and it is possible that you may not be able to apply after this process is completed.
But as long as Jiang Yi can go to school, she is willing to write supporting materials, and is willing to go to the leaders to sign and the village cadres to sign.
If she really can't approve it, she can only take out half of her salary to supplement Jiang Yi's family.
Jiang Yi has been leading her since the first grade of primary school, and this child listens carefully in class, actively answers questions, is helpful, and actively participates in labor.
The most important thing is that he scored double 100 points in every exam, and he was the first in the whole grade every time.
Such an excellent child, but because of difficult family conditions, the process of going to school stumbled, and he almost dropped out of school several times.
finally went to the second year of junior high school, but he didn't expect his parents to die suddenly.
The family that was not wealthy was even worse, and Jiang Yi did not come to school as soon as the second year of junior high school began.
Seeing that the good seedlings he cultivated by himself could not go to school because of family reasons, several years of hard work were in vain.
Jiang Yi's family doesn't care about his studies, but she, a teacher, is more distressed than anyone else.
Teacher Zheng said so much, Jiang Li still didn't speak, she looked at Jiang Yi's busy back and felt uneasy.
"Jiang Yi, come over here."
Jiang Li called his younger brother, and Jiang Yi, who had been eavesdropping on the two of them, stopped working and ran over quickly.
He saw Teacher Zheng bow his head in shame and whispered: "Zheng, Teacher Zheng." ”
He dropped out of school halfway, ashamed of Mr. Zheng's love and cultivation for him.
Now that Mr. Zheng has come to the door again for his business, Jiang Yi is also afraid that his sister will suddenly get angry.
After all, not long ago, my sister sold him and his sister because of the family's financial difficulties.
He can do a lot of things for the family if he stays now, and it is a bit of a use.
If he chooses to go to school, there is no one to do at home, and he has to pay extra for his tuition and living expenses, and his sister will definitely not agree.
"Teacher Zheng, I don't go to school, and I don't want to go to school, don't come to persuade me."
Jiang Yi said this sentence with a clear conscience, he liked to go to school, he loved school, but he knew that his sister could not let him go to school.
He preemptively replied that he wanted to reassure his sister, at least not to sell him.
"Your child's academic performance is so good, he can go to the city's secondary school in the future, and after graduation, he can be assigned a job to subsidize the family."
"You have been in the second year of junior high school, and it has not been a few years since the second year of junior high school to secondary school, and you are still young and you can't make much money staying at home, and it will be different after a few years."
Teacher Zheng didn't expect that even Jiang Yi himself was unwilling to go to school, she not only had to convince Jiang Li, but also Jiang Yi himself, which was even more difficult than she imagined.
She originally thought that Jiang Yi was a positive child, and she also loved school in her heart, so she took the trouble to do the ideological work of parents.
If this is really what Jiang Yi himself meant, although she feels regretful, she will also respect his choice.
Whether a child can learn and apply what he has learned in class depends on his own learning attitude.
If Jiang Yi's mind was no longer in school, it would be in vain for her to persuade her.
"Teacher Zheng, you have also seen the conditions of my family, my parents are gone, only my sister supports this family, my sister herself is not very old, how can I be embarrassed to let her carry the weight forward?"
"And ......" Jiang Yi was about to talk about the two babies, and the two babies cried together very tacitly.
"Teacher Zheng, wait a minute, I'll go and see the child."
Jiang Li and Jiang Yi went back to the room at the same time, and each of them came out with a baby in their hands.
Teacher Zheng was dumbfounded, Jiang Yi's family suddenly had two more children in this condition, not to mention the problem of making money, the most practical problem in front of him is that the children must always be brought by someone, right?
Seeing the situation in Jiang Yi's family, Teacher Zheng was completely discouraged, and she stopped persuading and prepared to get up and leave.
As soon as she stood up, Jiang Li stopped her: "Teacher Zheng, I decided to let Jiang Yi go back to school to continue studying." ”
Jiang Li's decision was not only shocked by Mr. Zheng, but even Jiang Yi himself was stunned!
