Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 600 Gossip
Unknowingly, it has been more than a month since Jiang Yurou came back to Hong Kong. Her body, which became a little weak after giving birth, has almost recovered. They are all stewed tonics, which not only saves Jiang Yurou's effort, but also are delicious and nutritious.

After regaining her vitality, Jiang Yurou wanted to go out and find a job, because they all relied on the money Shen Jinghong gave them to maintain their living expenses this month. Jiang Yurou didn't want to rely on others to live, but wanted to Self-support.

However, Jiang Yurou didn't want the Qin family to find out, and she had to take care of her son nearby, so she could only find a job here in Kowloon.With Jiang Yurou's ability, she can work as a clerk or secretary, but due to the high pressure of work in these positions, it is not convenient for Jiang Yurou to take care of her son. A teacher from a self-run school in this neighborhood.

In Hong Kong in this era, many children did not have the conditions to go to school, so residents in some neighborhoods raised their own funds to run schools.Of course, due to limited funds, the schools in these neighborhoods have very simple conditions for running schools. Many of them just put [-] or [-] sets of tables and chairs on the roofs of residential buildings to become teachers. Teachers are also very scarce, of course it is impossible These teachers are required to "certify to work".

Jiang Yurou has now become a teacher of such a school. The school is located on the roof of the residential building where she lives. The residents here built a simple shed on the roof to keep out the wind and rain, and then placed [-] sets of them under the shed. Desks and chairs, and a large blacked-out industrial formwork used as a chalkboard.

"Hello teacher."

"Hello students, today we are going to study a text called "Meng's Mother Moves Three Times". Students, do you know Mencius?"

From the shed on the rooftop came bursts of clear and clear children's voices, as well as a gentle female voice, which made people feel at ease.

I saw Jiang Yurou wearing a brown floral dress, standing in front of more than 30 seven or eight-year-old children, holding chalk in one hand, and wrote the words "Meng's mother moved three times" on the blackboard, Then explain the story and its rationale to the children.

The children obviously liked this beautiful and gentle teacher, they kept quiet automatically and consciously, and listened to Jiang Yurou's lecture with full attention.

On the other side of the shed, a group of housewives were sitting around, some were mending clothes, some were washing clothes, and some were knitting sweaters.

While doing these housework, they were chatting, and of course the content was inseparable from the short stories and gossips of the parents in this block.

The sounds of children reading from the nearby shed and Jiang Yurou's soft and clear voice gave these housewives a sense of pleasing comfort.

"Mr. Jiang is really a very good person. You know my little bastard. He is just a mischievous master. He is so quiet in Mr. Jiang's class. I have never seen him so obedient." said a woman who was rubbing her clothes on the washboard.

Another woman who was knitting a sweater also said: "Who said it wasn't? My boy said that Mr. Jiang is good as soon as he came back these two days. That little guy knows how to review his homework. He used to be very nervous when he saw the textbook. Dozed off."

However, the woman in front who was drying the clothes let out an "ah", and the other women heard this and asked, "Sister Li, why is she sighing all of a sudden, is it possible that your child is disobedient again?"

"It's not that my child is disobedient, it's the child's father who is disobedient." Mrs. Li said.

The others knew that Mrs. Li must have something to say, so they stopped talking and looked at Mrs. Li quietly. Sure enough, Mrs. Li turned around and continued: "I discovered it in the past few days, my family, every day Send fish to Mr. Jiang."

Obviously, Mrs. Li's husband is a fish seller.

The woman rubbing the clothes just now smiled and said, "It's nothing. After all, Mr. Jiang's family's conditions are not good, and he helps us teach our children to read. Brother Li should give Mr. Jiang some fish."

"But that's not the case. He gives them away every day, and it's not those fish heads and tails, but big carp and big carp weighing five or six catties. You also know that my family is a penny-pinching one." Lord, my mother was ill some time ago, and he pushed me back when I asked him to send a carp to make soup for my mother, but now he is so generous."

Everyone gradually heard the smell, only to hear that a woman over there put down the wool in her hand, looked at Sister Li and asked, "Sister Li, don't you mean, what does your brother Li have to Mr. Jiang?" right?"

Mrs. Li stopped talking, and said "ah" again, and everyone was silent for a while.

And another woman with curly hair suddenly said: "Actually, it's just the one in Mrs. Li's family, and the one in my family is the same. They are courteous for nothing."

Everyone else looked at the woman in astonishment, and heard her say: "I saw it the day before yesterday, my old Zheng actually helped Mr. Jiang carry the rice. You know, my old Zheng is usually unwilling to move I’m such a lazy person, I’ve always carried the rice at home alone, he’s never helped me once, but he was so considerate to Mr. Jiang the day before yesterday.”

After a pause, the woman sighed again, and said: "Actually, I can't blame them. Who made Mr. Jiang look young, beautiful, educated, and even speak better than us? No wonder those men They all swarm around like flies that have seen shit."

"Who said that woman is okay? She just gave birth to a child, but she has never seen her husband. I don't know if he is dead or something." Another woman curled her lips and said, "This Jiang is either a widow or A vixen."

Hearing what the woman said, the others nodded in unison.After all, a single woman with a child and no husband is always going to attract attention.

At this time, the door of the stairs on the rooftop was suddenly pushed open, and then a 28*[-]-year-old man wearing glasses came out of the stairs, holding a pack of traditional Chinese medicine in his hand.This man has a straight face, wearing a suit, and looks refined, but his expression and demeanor are a little shy, showing a bit of shyness.

"Hey, isn't this our Xiao Liu?" Seeing this "Xiao Liu", all the housewives did not continue the topic just now, and one of the women also smiled and said to Xiao Liu: "Xiao Liu, why are you here?" ? You didn’t come to see our Teacher Jiang, did you?”

Xiao Liu's face turned red immediately, he lowered his head and did not speak, but he acquiesced.

Everyone didn't expect that he really came to Jiang Yurou. Xiao Liu's name is Liu Shixian. Although he is 28 years old this year, he is not married yet. I introduced many girls to him, but in the end it was because Liu Shixian didn't like him, or other girls didn't like his dullness, so there was no result in the end.

And because of Liu Shixian's good looks and shy personality, the housewives in the neighborhood like to tease him, and some of the more capable ones even arrange blind dates for him from time to time.In addition, although Liu Shixian is relatively shy and reserved in terms of feelings, he is a very capable person in his career. Now he is the manager of a small company. Others, however, are also quite remarkable.

At this time, these housewives did not expect that Liu Shixian was also attracted by Jiang Yurou.

Liu Shixian asked these housewives shyly, "Excuse me... is Mr. Jiang here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Jiang Yurou's voice lecturing from the shed, and Liu Shixian's face turned red again.After standing there for a while, he seemed to have gathered his courage, so he walked towards the shed.

The housewives here watched Liu Shixian walking towards the shed, and they all began to discuss in a low voice: "It seems that that is really a vixen, not only the men in our family, but even Xiao Liu is fascinated by him. I have never seen it before." Which girl has Xiao Liu been so proactive with?"

"Yes, yes." Others agreed deeply.

At this time, Liu Shixian had already walked into the shed. Jiang Yurou, who was giving a lecture, had a puzzled look on her face when she saw Liu Shixian.She said to the children: "Everyone recite the text again."

The children immediately followed suit and were very obedient to Jiang Yurou, but there were also many people who secretly paid attention to Jiang Yurou.

I saw Jiang Yurou walking over from the blackboard, came to Liu Shixian, and said to him, "Mr. Liu, you are..."

Seeing the gentle and charming Jiang Yurou in front of him, Liu Shixian was very nervous and blushed.He handed the package of Chinese medicine in his hand to Jiang Yurou, and said stammeringly: "This... I caught these Chinese medicines myself. I asked someone about it. This medicine has the effect of nourishing blood and nourishing qi. The people in charge are very good, Mr. Jiang, you... take this medicine back."

After listening to Liu Shixian's words, Jiang Yurou smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Liu, how can this work? Everyone has helped me a lot. I really don't know how to repay everyone. Now you..."

Seeing Jiang Yurou's smile, Liu Shixian felt amazed for a while, and felt that all the pores on his body were opened, as if he was bathed in sunlight and spring breeze.He said: "Mr. Jiang, you are old-fashioned for the children. If you are not in good health, it will affect the children's classes, so you must take this medicine and recuperate your body before you can continue teaching the children. "

Now that Liu Shixian said so, Jiang Yurou's refusal would seem a bit hypocritical, so she had no choice but to accept it, and said "thank you" to Liu Shixian.
