Chapter 1062 Leader’s Visit
Wang Xiaobo looked at the answering process on the ground, nodded and said, "There is no problem with the answering process."

Yu Hua rolled her eyes, "I don't care if the answer is right or not. Hurry up and send this kid back to get something to eat, he's fainting from hunger."

Li Hongchuang's blood sugar was low, and he felt dizzy when he stood up suddenly after squatting for too long. He got better after a while, and when he heard Yu Hua's words, he shook his head, "It's okay, I'm fine."

"Okay, you have to eat, let's go."

Yu Hua couldn't help but pull Li Hongchuang towards their residence.

Although they didn't light a fire to cook in their residence, they ate a lot of food, including instant noodles, ham sausages, and some vacuum-packed pork jerky.

After arriving at the residence, Yu Dong first found a bag of bread and stuffed it into Li Hongchuang's hand, and said in a commanding tone, "Eat this."

Li Hongchuang wanted to refuse at first, but hearing Yu Dong's tone, he could only accept the bread obediently.

"I'm going to make instant noodles now. When I come out, I hope I've finished eating the bread... Can you open the bag? Do you want me to help you open it?"

Li Hongchuang shook his head, "No, no, I will dismantle it."

He was really frightened by Yu Dong's appearance. Yu Dong was very kind to them before, smiling every day, and he had never been so serious before.

Yu Dong turned around and went to the back room to make instant noodles for Li Hongchuang. Li Hongchuang glanced at Yu Dong's back and carefully opened the bread bag.

By the time Yu Dong soaked the noodles, Li Hongchuang had completed the task and finished the bread.

"Eat the noodles now."

"Teacher Yu, I'm full."

"It's already soaked. Eat it when you're full."

Li Hongchuang took the instant noodles. Although he said he was full, his eyes and the way he swallowed betrayed him.

For children like Li Hongchuang, instant noodles are a delicacy in the world. Most children in Huangcao Village have never eaten instant noodles in barrels, or even seen the real thing.

This kind of barreled instant noodles is difficult to buy in their town, and the dry noodles sold in small shops are only a few cents and a dollar a bag.

Because I can't afford it, this noodle costs more than four yuan. A junior high school student in the town does not have that much food expenses for a day. In some rural junior high schools, the food expenses are only one yuan a day. They bring rice to the school to steam, and then spend You can have a meal by buying some food for two or three cents, and you can save a few cents at the end of the day.

Not to mention the gap between cities and rural areas, there is also a huge gap between rural areas.

There is a village about ten miles away from Huangcao Village, which is closer to the county seat. The people in the village go out to work earlier. Now many buildings have been built, and the lives of the villagers are much better.

Li Hongchuang finished the instant noodles with a huff and drank all the noodle soup. Yu Dong pointed to the trash can and said, "Put it in the trash can. I will take care of it later."

After eating, Li Hongchuang's complexion improved a lot and he looked more energetic.

Wang Xiaobo said, "Li Hongchuang, your spirit of learning is worthy of praise, but you must know that the body is the capital of the revolution. If you don't take care of your body, you will be tired by your body sooner or later. You must eat on time."

Li Hongchuang said with a naive smile, "I'm used to it."

Yu Hua said sternly, "I know that your grandma is old and usually busy with farm work, so she will inevitably neglect you, but you are already in fifth grade now, and grandma should no longer worry about food. If there is no food at home, you can tell us."

"No, no, I have rice at home and sometimes eggs."

Wang Xiaobo nodded, "Since you have rice, you can cook your own rice and cook some seasonal vegetables. First, make sure you don't starve to death, and then make sure you are healthy."

Yu Dong smiled and said, "Okay, pay attention in the future. Now that you have solved the problem, you must fulfill what I promised you before."

With that said, Yu Dong stood up and counted out ten pieces of draft paper from the drawer and handed it to Li Hongchuang, "Here you go."

Li Hongchuang gently took the scratch paper. Although it was just the most ordinary scratch paper, he was still cautious for fear of damaging the paper.

The draft paper used by Yu Dong and others is A4, which is larger. Compared with the notebooks used by Li Hongchuang and others, the draft paper is whiter and of good quality. The students like this kind of draft paper very much, so Yu Dong Scratch paper as a reward for solving problems.

"With the scratch paper, I can solve problems at home in the future. The weather is not very cold now, but it will be difficult to tell after a while."

……

The three of them explained a few more words to Li Hongchuang and then let him go.

After Li Hongchuang left, Wang Xiaobo said with emotion, "Li Hongchuang is a good boy. The question I assigned him is quite a test of mathematical thinking. He has a talent in this area."

Yu Hua nodded and said, "If you have talent, cultivate it well. Now I have discovered that there is an important reason why the education in Huangcao Village cannot be improved, and that is because the school has never produced anyone who can go far in this road of learning. The village next door , not far away, but they attach great importance to education, because they had a college student there before, and that college student worked in the city and earned a high income. With such an example, people in the same village feel that studying is indeed important. One road, so the incentive to send children to school is high.”

"Although this statement is highly utilitarian, it does make sense. You cannot expect parents of students to have any lofty goals. Their environment is destined to see them only what is in front of them, so if you want them to value education, you must let them They see the benefits that education can bring to them. Another point is that even though many people know that studying is good, studying is a long-term investment, and many people cannot bear this investment cycle," Yu Dong said.

"Doesn't your company have scholarships? Li Hongchuang should meet the scholarship standards. His academic performance is already quite good. If he is trained well, he can make further progress. As long as he can go to a better junior high school, he can get a scholarship. It's easier to go down."

Yu Dong nodded, "I will ask about the scholarship later and see if it can be covered here. Although Deep Space's charity is very strong, after all, we are just a company, so our strength is still a bit weak."

Wang Xiaobo said with a smile, "This power is no longer weak. Your efforts over the years are obvious to all. Ten years have passed, and the impact of what you have done has gradually been reflected."

"Take your time, education is a long-term thing, and the economy is one of the pillars supporting education. As long as our country's economy is getting better day by day, education will naturally get better day by day."

……

The three of them were chatting with each other, when suddenly Huang Guozhu's voice sounded outside, "Teacher Yu, Teacher Wang." Wang Xiaobo leaned over and looked out the window, only to see Huang Guozhu leading two middle-aged men towards this side. Walking over, I heard Huang Guozhu shouting at the top of his voice. One of the men hurriedly reached out to pull Huang Guozhu's arm and said a few more words to him.

Because he was a little far away and the voice was low, Wang Xiaobo didn't hear what was said.

Wang Xiaobo stood up and said with a smile, "We have guests, please get up and greet them."

The three of them walked to the door, and Huang Guozhu said with a smile, "Teacher Yu, the leaders of the county are here to see you."

The man following Huang Guozhu coughed lightly and said with a smile, "What leaders don't lead? We are all engaged in education work, but the division of labor is different."

After saying that, the man took the initiative to take two steps forward and shook Yu Dong's hand first, "Teacher Yu, you are more worthy of respect if you work on the front line."

After shaking Yu Dong's hand, the men shook hands with Yu Hua and Wang Xiaobo one by one, and the other man who followed behind him also went through the procedure.

The two men were both in their 40s and about the same height as Yu Hua, but one was fat and one was thin, one was black and the other was white.

The one walking in front should be the leader, fat and black. When he shook hands with Yu Dong and the others, the smile on his face never dropped.

After shaking hands, the leader took the initiative to introduce himself, "I am Li Fukang, the deputy director of the County Education Bureau, and next to me is Hong Tong, the principal of the County No. [-] Middle School."

Huang Guozhu looked confused when he saw it from the side. Is it because the leaders of the County Education Bureau were too close to the people? They were so polite to Yu Dong and other teachers.

Yu Dong smiled and said, "Two leaders, please come inside."

Inviting them inside, Yu Dong took the initiative to make a cup of tea for each of them, and the two hurriedly took it carefully.

When they took the tea, Wang Xiaobo said with a smile, "The two leaders are busy with work, how can they have time to come to Huangcao Village?"

Huang Guozhu helped explain at the side, "Director Li and the others are doing teaching research in our town. They are not just coming to our village, they also want to visit other villages."

"Do you go to every village?"

"We don't go to every village. We just select schools to visit. If you, teachers, come to support teaching, I will come over to see if you are still used to it. Teaching support is not easy and should receive more care," Li Fukang said.

Hong Tong, who was next to him, took over the conversation and said, "Yes, there is a lack of local educational resources, so we especially need people like you, Teacher Yu, who are passionate, pursuing and dedicated. I also share the work you are doing at Huangcao Village Primary School. I heard Principal Huang tell us about it, and I really admire him."

This series of words made Huang Guozhu stunned. This conversation sounded too strange. Why did it feel like Deputy Director Li was trying to curry favor with Yu Dong and the others?

Could it be said that the relationship between Yu Dong and the others in the county is not within the Education Bureau, but higher up?Or maybe their relationship is not in the county at all, but in the city?

It would make sense if their relationship was in the city, because none of the three of them were locals.

Huang Guozhu was surprised before that none of the three of them were locals, and it was not uncommon for outsiders to work in their county, but it was strange that three of them came together at once. The probability of this happening in the city was much higher.

Thinking of this, Huang Guozhu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Since Teacher Yu and the others came, they have not only greatly alleviated the shortage of human resources for teachers in the school, but also helped the school improve students' learning and activity environment, and increased students' enthusiasm for learning. . What surprised me the most was that they actually organized a football team. This football team improved the students' ability to organize and cooperate, and also enhanced the cohesion among students."

Yu Dong and the other three all laughed and said nothing. Huang Guozhu almost had a big quarrel with them before about forming a football team, but now it's better, they have completely changed their faces.

Li Fukang first affirmed the series of actions of Yu Dong and the others, and then asked with concern, "What else is lacking in the school now? If you have any difficulties, you can mention them to the bureau. If they can be solved, we will try our best to solve them."

Yu Dong smiled and said, "There are a lot of bad things, but they are not urgently needed. Let's slowly think of a solution ourselves. When we can't do anything ourselves, we will trouble the leaders."

Huang Guozhu rolled his eyes again, wondering if Yu Dong had such a good opportunity to make a request. Although Deputy Director Li's concern may not be sincere, since he has spoken, as long as Yu Dong asks for it, he can get something. of.

But Huang Guozhu couldn't ask for it, he could only hold it in beside him.

Huang Guozhu was anxious, but Li Fukang was even more anxious than him. He only found out yesterday that Yu Dong and the others came to Huangcao Village to support teaching, so he hurriedly brought Hong Tong over.

The reason why he brought one person was because he knew that Yu Dong and the others did not want to make any noise, and they were afraid that bringing too many people would offend Yu Dong and the others. The reason why he brought Hong Tong, the principal of the middle school, was because Hong Tong was also at Yanjing Normal University before. I brought him here to build a relationship with Yu Dong. At this moment, he was looking for an opportunity to tell the truth that Hong Tong also graduated from Yan Normal University.

After thinking for a while, he felt that he had nothing good to say, so he asked directly, "Did I hear that Teacher Yu graduated from Yan Normal University?"

Yu Dong nodded and said, "Well, I did graduate from Yan Normal University."

Li Fukang laughed, "That's a coincidence. Principal Hong also graduated from Yenching Normal University, and you are still alumni."

Yu Dong smiled. Just now he was curious as to why Li Fukang brought the principal of County No. [-] Middle School. Now he knew the reason. It turned out that Hong Tong was his alumnus.

"It turns out he's an alumnus. Looking at Principal Hong's age, he should be my senior brother."

Hong Tong smiled and said, "I want to grow older. I graduated in 17, and it's been [-] years now."

"Then there is no intersection between the two of us. I am in Grade [-] and you have graduated two years since I arrived at school."

"Then you and..." Yu Hua originally wanted to say that Hong Tong and Su Tong had an intersection, but he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips. Now that he was talking about Su Tong, wasn't that completely exposed? Li Fukang and the others knew that they Huang Guozhu doesn’t know the identity of the others yet.

Li Fukang and Hong Tong turned to look at Yu Hua, "What do you want to say, Teacher Yu?"

Yu Hua waved his hand and said with a smile, "I want to say that you two are actually not that far behind."

Hong Tonghui misunderstood and smiled awkwardly, "I didn't enter college until I was 27, and I was already 31 when I graduated."
