Chapter 759 Visiting the Old Principal

Today's dinner is potato shreds, Chinese cabbage and bean porridge. Although it is not rich, it is much better than last year.

Now it is the winter vacation, the children and other teachers have already gone home, and only the old principal and Mr. Chen are stationed in the school.

After the new school was built, the old principal and Mr. Chen did not need to use their meager wages to buy textbooks and homework for the children, so they used a little money to improve the food.

Looking at the brand-new and tidy classrooms and desks in the school, the old principal and Teacher Chen felt extremely satisfied, and even tasted much better after eating.

For the old principal who has been teaching here for more than 40 years, improving the teaching environment can be said to be his long-cherished wish, and now, it has finally come true.

Whenever this happens, he will think of that young man named Yi Shuihan, because of him, the children can study in the spacious and bright classroom after class.

"Xiao Chen...although it's been a long time, it's like a dream when I think about it now. You know, every time I go to the county and pass by the school there, I always think about it, if the children in Dashan also How great it would be to be able to study in such a school, I never thought that this wish would come true in my lifetime...Thanks to Teacher Yi!" The old principal said with emotion, his cheeks full of old creases smiled extraordinarily kindly.

"That's right, the children are also thinking about their Teacher Yi!" Teacher Chen responded with a smile.

In fact, the old principal has said this sentence more than once, but Mr. Chen did not feel that the old principal is nagging at all. Some things are forgetful when he is getting old. The old principal has been busy all his life, all for the children in the mountains. Persisting here for so long is one of the biggest reasons for the influence and touch brought by the old principal.

For Yi Shuihan, he is also deeply grateful, no one is unwilling to live a better life, compared with the previous years, because of Yi Shuihan, their life has improved a lot.

The two of them were eating and chatting when they heard loud and excited voices coming from the door.

"Old principal! Old principal! Who do you think is here?" The village chief knocked on the door and strode in.

"Who is it?" The old principal and Teacher Chen looked up suspiciously.

The village chief moved away with a happy face, and a tall figure appeared in front of them, taking off his hat and sunglasses.

Those very recognizable, dark and deep eyes, the corners of the mouth lightly raised, and the gentle and composed smile - isn't it Mr. Yi who he was talking about just now!
The old principal and Teacher Chen stood up excitedly and greeted them.

The old headmaster held Yi Shuihan tightly with his scrawny hands, his lips trembling, and it took him a long time to say a few words.

He was so excited. The old headmaster thought that he would never see Yi Shuihan again, but he didn't expect Yi Shuihan to appear in front of them again.

"Come! Come! Xiao Yi, let's sit down and eat together!" The old principal said and pulled Yi Shuihan onto the dining table, "By the way, Xiao Chen, go cook some more dishes!"

Yi Shuihan hurriedly stopped Teacher Chen, and said with a smile, "Principal, I've already eaten on the way, and I'm full. Brother Chen, you don't have to work too hard."

"Come on! Let's sit down and chat slowly. Why do you have time to come to this remote mountain and old forest during Chinese New Year?" Even though Yi Shuihan was very happy to see their old principal, he still had some doubts in his heart.

"Haha, I've lived here for a year or so, come back to see everyone." Yi Shuihan said with a smile.

"The principal was talking about you just now! Coincidentally, you are here!" Teacher Chen said with a laugh.

"That's really flattering!" Yi Shuihan responded with a smile, "How is the old principal?"

"Okay! Okay! Eat two bowls of rice every meal, and I can still work in this position for 20 years!" The old headmaster grinned to the back of his head, and slapped his chest loudly, making Yi Shuihan and the others worry about him I patted myself off.

Yi Shuihan quickly grabbed his hand and continued to ask, "Is there anything else in the school that I need help with?"

The village chief's eyes lit up. This is a good opportunity. The conditions of the school have improved a lot, but he still lacks a lot of teaching facilities. Yi Shuihan must have wanted to help when he asked this question. As long as the old principal asks, those The problem will be solved!
He was thinking like this, but he didn't expect the old principal to shake his head like a rattle: "No, no, everything is fine, there are some minor problems, but they can all be overcome!"

He answered categorically and refused Yi Shuihan's help again. It's not that the school doesn't need it, but that Yi Shuihan has already paid a lot for the school. Those things that can be overcome and can be solved by himself Come on, it can't all depend on him.

The village chief sighed, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't grab the old headmaster to make him nod. Since he had decided in this way, the village should help a little more.

"That's good. Feel free to come to me if you have any problems in the future. I'll find a way to solve them for you." Yi Shuihan nodded and said.

"Oh!" the old headmaster suddenly patted his thigh and said, "It's winter vacation now, and the children are not at school. I have to go door to door to inform them. Those monkey boys will be so happy when they hear that Teacher Yi is back. .”

Yi Shuihan hurriedly stopped the old principal and said, "Then don't, it's better not to disturb the children anymore... After all, I can't stay for a long time, so don't let the children feel sad again."

Thinking of the parting scene at the beginning, Yi Shuihan felt a little uncomfortable at this moment. Now that he has left, he should not make both parties sad again, and avoid causing secondary harm to the children.

The old headmaster was stunned for a moment, and after a while he also sighed and nodded.

If possible, he really hoped that Yi Shuihan could stay here for the rest of his life and teach the children, the children liked him so much.

But the old headmaster also knew that his idea was impossible, Yi Shuihan didn't belong here after all...

The four of them chatted about the school, the children, and the young teachers who came here to teach, and the days seemed to return to the time when they were teaching here.

The old principal had too much gratitude and feelings to explain to Yi Shuihan, and Yi Shuihan maintained enough respect and admiration for an old man who had dedicated his life to Dashan's education.

After chatting for a long time, Yi Shuihan bid farewell to the old principal and Teacher Wang, and walked towards the village and Wang Xian's home.

As he got closer, his heart couldn't restrain his beating. This was the first time he felt flustered and even a little bit at a loss when he came to this world.

What will the meeting between the two of them be like... I left, is she still waiting there...
