Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 37: Zhou Jing can't help Liu Hanyu's troubles

Finally, the meeting was over and the school notified the teachers to go to the administration building to receive their Teacher's Day gifts.

"Zhou Jing, help me lead it."

Gu Jia was in a hurry to go back to the dormitory to use the toilet, so she asked Zhou Jing to take her there.

"Okay, I'll tidy up Teacher Gu's desk later." Zhou Jing watched Gu Jia walk away, then looked at Zhao Xin and asked, "Is Teacher Zhao's child a son or a daughter?"

After knowing the gender of the baby, Zhou Jing had the opportunity to choose an easier gift.

"Like you, I'm less than three years old now. Do you have a girlfriend now?"

Zhao Xin said with a smile on her face.

"No, Mr. Zhao will introduce me to someone suitable."

Zhou Jing shook his head.

"You are so handsome and outstanding, why do you need someone to introduce you? There must be a lot of girls lining up after you. What kind do you want to find?"

If Zhao Xin really wanted to introduce someone to this student, there was no one she knew who was worthy of him.

She does have a cousin who is a junior this year. Her academic qualifications are a little inferior to Zhou Jing's, and she is also the last in the province among the second-tier universities.

"Mr. Zhao is like this."

Zhou Jing said half jokingly and half seriously.

Zhao Xin also said half jokingly and half seriously: "Then I will introduce my sister to you. She is also a senior this year."

In fact, Zhao Xin doesn’t have a biological sister, but she has a younger brother.

"I remember that Mr. Zhao has a younger brother who is studying at Northwestern Polytechnical University?"

Zhou Jing knows when to stop joking. If you overdo it, it won't be funny anymore.

"Yes, I graduated from graduate school this year. I studied for a master's degree at this school."

Zhao Xin is not without pride when talking about her younger brother. Not only because her younger brother is outstanding, but she herself is not bad either. She and her younger brother graduated from a 985 university and a 211 university respectively. Her family is a poor household in a poor village in a poor county in Shanxi Province. Now both she and her younger brother have achieved academic success. They can be regarded as noble children from a poor family. Every time they return to the village, they feel proud and their parents feel very proud.

"What major did you study? Where did you find a job?"

Zhou Jing admires Zhao Xin and her brother from the bottom of his heart. They are so ambitious.

"He studied aircraft manufacturing and graduated this year and joined an aerospace research institute in Tangdu."

The boy in front of her called her younger brother "Little Master Uncle", which made Zhao Xin feel very cordial. This student's words and actions made people feel comfortable in every aspect, so although his grades in the class were average, he was her favorite student.

“National talent, future national treasure.”

"Wherever there is."

"Aerospace will be the backbone of the country's future science and technology. The Beidou system, manned space flight, space station manufacturing, lunar exploration, deep space exploration, and national defense all rely on aircraft manufacturing."

As someone who has returned from the future, Zhou Jing is well aware of the development of the aerospace field.

Zhao Xin looked back and said, "To be honest, Zhou Jing, it's a pity that you are such a good math teacher. Have you ever considered taking the postgraduate entrance examination? The prospects for postgraduate entrance examinations for math majors are very good. It's not too late to consider it now."

"Everyone has their own aspirations. Become a teacher first to experience what it's like to be a teacher."

If Zhou Jing had heard such good advice earlier in his previous life, he would probably have taken the postgraduate entrance examination, but now there is no need for that.

"This is also good. When life goals are unclear, teachers can maintain their knowledge base. When they have made up their minds about taking the postgraduate entrance examination, civil service examination, or looking for a job, they can do so. Learning math, physics, and chemistry well can help you travel the world. This is the advantage of us science students."

Zhao Xin sighed inwardly, wishing her husband was as down-to-earth as the boy.

Due to different personal pursuits and information understood, as well as inaccurate self-perception, one may be blindly arrogant or waste one's talents in making choices. But no matter what choice you make, being down-to-earth is the most important thing. As the saying goes, make the best of it. Even if you choose again, you must learn from your mistakes and not be blind again. There are not so many opportunities for trial and error in life.

Zhao Xin saw this valuable quality in her student Zhou Jing.

It's rare for young people today to be like this.

The Teacher's Day gifts prepared by the school this year for teachers are Xinyang Maojian tea and throat lozenges for male teachers, and jasmine tea, throat lozenges and hand cream for female teachers.

"It's getting more and more perfunctory. When I gave this gift package before, it also included a water cup, but this year I didn't even include the water cup."

The teachers who received the gifts complained.

"Who is so smart as to think of giving gifts like this?" Zhou Jing complained in his mind. Although the teacher has no shortage of thermos cups, giving one is better than not giving one. Or else give something else, like a box of apples or a box of pears. This way it feels like the school is only giving half-hearted gifts.

Zhou Jing looked at the production date of the tea. For this year's spring tea, it was still a bottom line not to send expired products.

On Teacher's Day, teachers and classes of high school sophomores and juniors give gifts, but the homeroom teachers of the first-year classes ask students not to prepare any. This is a tradition of the school. Zhou Jing did so when he was a first-year high school student, mainly for the sake of the students.

Because there are too many teachers teaching in the first year of high school.

In addition to the teachers of the nine regular subjects, there are also art, computer, and physical education teachers. Gifts need to be given to twelve teachers in total.

Gifts that are too ordinary are not good-looking. If you give average-level gifts, the cost will be about 100 yuan per person in the class, which is not a small amount for most students. The living expenses for boarding students are only 400 to 500 yuan a month.

Computer and art classes are only taken for one year in high school.

Because of this school tradition, the computer teacher and the art teacher never receive Teacher's Day gifts from their classes.

After delivering his and Gu Jia's Teacher's Day gifts to the office, Zhou Jing returned to the dormitory to change his clothes. He was already handsome, and he was too conspicuous in formal attire.

At noon, Zhou Jing went to Yushi College to have lunch with Liu Hanyu.

"I didn't go home today because I wanted to have dinner with you."

Liu Hanyu usually comes to the college to read in the morning, goes home to eat at noon, and continues to read in the college in the afternoon.

Liu Hanyu's financial situation does not allow her to eat out three times a day.

Zhou Jing didn't notice if Liu Hanyu had any hidden meaning, "Then what do you want? Isn't it free to take the bus back and forth?"

"I used my brother's student card."

"All right!"

"Oh, I'm so worried. What should I do if I fail the exam in December?"

Liu Hanyu sighed.

"I don't understand that."

Zhou Jing could not give Liu Hanyu any advice on this issue, nor could he help her with her troubles.

This not only affects Liu Hanyu's future career development, but also her life events.

If she was Zhou Jing's girlfriend, Zhou Jing would tell her not to take the exam, just find a class to take, and after getting married and having children, she wouldn't have to work so hard during pregnancy because she can't bear to quit her job.

"If I give up after failing the national exam this year and the provincial exam next April, I will have wasted more than a year."

Liu Hanyu was truly distressed.

There are more positions in the local city for the national and provincial examinations, but the competition is extremely fierce.

More than 80 people applied for the position she applied for, which requires two people. This means that only one person is selected from more than 40 people. Even if there is no behind-the-scenes manipulation and it is a completely fair competition, there is little hope.

If you apply for a job in a public institution, the work location will not be ideal.

Zhou Jing comforted him: "As long as you are reading and studying, there is no waste."

Zhou Jing feels that taking the exam system is useless. Of course, it is related to one's academic qualifications. For people with poor academic qualifications who cannot find a good job, taking the exam system is a good choice. If you take a chance, you may be able to transform yourself from a low-grade horse to a medium-grade horse.

"That makes sense. If you know of a good job that's suitable for me, please recommend it to me."

Liu Hanyu could only comfort herself this way.

"No problem, Jinzhen, would you consider it?"

Zhou Jing said this, but in his heart he couldn't get into any good units in the central area of ​​Yulin City, and college students looked down upon bad companies.

There are many companies in Jinzhen, which is more than 70 kilometers away from the city center, including some state-owned enterprises, but they are all chemical companies.

A few days ago, Zhou Jing saw a recruitment information of a company forwarded by a classmate on QQ space, which had an accounting major.

"what company?"

　Thank you very much to Qingshan for the reward of 100 points, and thank you all for your monthly tickets. I hope you will continue to support the new book period.
