Comfortable life in Siheyuan

In the evening, Liu Qingshan and his wife went to Wannian Hutong. His eldest brother had already gone out to meet up with friends.

Faced with the enthusiastic invitation from Feng's father and mother to stay, they politely declined and rode their bicycles back home.

Carrying two children, Liu Qingshan rode very slowly and carefully along the way.

When we were about to reach the courtyard, we suddenly met a man. He asked politely, "Hello, comrade. Is this the No. 95 courtyard in Nanluoguxiang?"

The uninvited guest was dressed in simple clothes, with her hair tied into a pair of ponytails and a book tightly in her arms, all of which showed her temperament as an intellectual woman of the new era. "Yes, this is it. Who are you looking for?" Feng Yu responded with a smile after getting off the car.

"Hello, I'm here to see Jia Geng. I'm his teacher, Ran Qiuye." Ran Qiuye looked at Feng Yu with some surprise, secretly marveling at how beautiful the woman in front of him was.

"Their home is in the middle courtyard. We also live in this courtyard. Let us take you there." Feng Yu said as he entered the courtyard holding a child.

"Thank you so much!" As Ran Qiuye said this, he also helped to hold Xixi's hand, and they walked in together.

"The Qingshan family is back. Hey! Teacher Ran, why are you here?" The third uncle standing at the door asked in surprise.

"Teacher Yan, you live here too. I'm here as a school assignment to find Banggeng's parents." Ran Qiuye said with a smile.

"What's wrong with Banggeng? Are you being naughty?" Liu Qingshan asked with a smile.

"It's not a big deal. The school asked the teacher to make a home visit!" Ran Qiuye didn't dare to tell Bang Geng about those bad things directly, thinking that it would not affect the child's reputation.

Walking into the middle courtyard together, the third uncle smiled and pointed at the Jia family and said, "That's Banggeng's family. His mother should be home now. I just saw her coming back from get off work."

As he spoke, the third uncle's voice suddenly became very low, and he reminded, "Banggeng's father is gone. He died of a work-related injury a few years ago. There are only his mother and grandmother left at home, two adults."

She thanked the third uncle softly: "Thank you, Teacher Yan. Please go back first, I can go there by myself." After that, she thanked Liu Qingshan and his wife, and then she walked towards the Jia family, ready to start this special home visit.

"Row."

……

"Hello, is anyone home?" Standing at the door, Ran Qiuye shouted in a clear voice.

"Who is it?" Jia Zhang walked out and saw Ran Qiuye standing at the door. She was a little confused.

"Hello, I am Jia Geng's class teacher. I am here for a home visit today. You must be Jia Geng's grandmother, right?" Ran Qiuye said with a smile.

"Yes, teacher, please come in and sit down." Jia Zhang quickly invited Ran Qiuye in.

Ran Qiuye walked into the house and looked around. The Jia family was indeed in a difficult situation, with very few furniture. "Where is Jia Geng's mother?" Ran Qiuye asked after sitting down.

"Yes, yes. I'm in the kitchen. I'll go call you right away. Please sit for a while." After saying that, Jia Zhang got up and went to the kitchen.

After a while, Qin Huairu and Banggeng came over. Xiaodang and Huaihua also came out, and the room suddenly became crowded.

"Mom, take the two children to their room, I'll talk to the teacher." Qin Huairu said to her mother-in-law.

"Hello, teacher. I am Banggeng's mother. My last name is Qin." Watching Jia Zhang take the two children away, Qin Huairu pulled Banggeng and sat opposite the teacher.

"Hello, Sister Qin. This time I am here on a mission arranged by the school. Regarding Banggeng, first of all, let me talk about his performance in school. According to feedback from his classmates and teachers of various subjects, Banggeng is often distracted in class and his academic performance has also declined." Ran Qiuye looked at Qin Huairu and said. In fact, Ran Qiuye wanted to say, is that a decline? It has hit the bottom.

Qin Huairu's face turned a little ugly, and she glared at Bang Geng fiercely.

"Also, many classmates' things have gone missing recently. After investigation, we found that they were all taken away by Bang Geng. Although the things are not valuable, it is a very bad sign. I am here to give you a warning." Ran Qiuye's tone became serious.

Qin Huairu stood up angrily after hearing this. "Bang Geng, how could you steal your classmates' things? Do you know that this is against the law?"

Banggeng lowered his head and didn't dare to look at his mother.

Seeing this, Ran Qiuye quickly comforted her: "Sister Qin, don't be angry. The child is still young and may be confused for a moment. We must educate him well and let him realize his mistakes."

Qin Huairu sighed, "Teacher, you are right. I will definitely discipline him well."

Ran Qiuye nodded, "Then I'm relieved. I hope Banggeng can correct his mistakes and study hard. If you need any help, you can always come to me."

"Thank you, teacher. Please discipline Banggeng at school. His father passed away early and I have to go to work every day. I'm going to trouble you to take care of him." Qin Huairu became very depressed when she spoke.

"Also, Banggeng has not paid his tuition for this year, a total of two dollars and fifty cents. Is today convenient for you? I'll collect it and take it back." Ran Qiuye asked in a low voice.

Qin Huairu said with some embarrassment: "Teacher, it's not that we don't want to pay, it's just that our family is in trouble. Look at us, I'm the only one working, I have elderly parents and young children to take care of, I really don't have the energy to do it, can you talk to the school and ask for help?"

Ran Qiuye looked at Qin Huairu, feeling a little sorry for her. It was not easy for her to become a widow at such a young age and take care of such a large family. Ran Qiuye suddenly felt sympathy for her.

"I will report your family's situation to the school. If the school does not agree, you will still have to pay tuition." Ran Qiuye explained in a low voice.

"Well, thank you, teacher. It's really a bother for you. I'm sorry that you have to take care of Banggeng in school." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"You're welcome. This is what we should do. I'll go back now!" Ran Qiuye stood up and prepared to leave.

"Teacher, why don't you have a meal at home before leaving? Dinner will be almost ready." Qin Huairu invited politely.

"No need, I'll go first. It will be dark soon and it will be inconvenient to go back. Goodbye, Jia Geng!" Ran Qiuye said and went out.

Banggeng lowered his head and said nothing. It was only after Qin Huairu kicked him that he reluctantly said, "Goodbye, teacher."

"Teacher, take care. Goodbye," Qin Huairu said with a smile.

After sending Teacher Ran out, Qin Huairu turned around and looked at Bang Geng, her face became particularly gloomy.

"Why do you steal things in school? You used to steal in the yard, and now you steal in school. When you grow up, will you steal on the main road? Do you want to ride a sled?" Qin Huairu's tone became more and more severe.

Jia Zhang, who had been hiding in the house and listening for a long time, came out immediately. Just as she was about to say something, she was frightened by Qin Huairu's look.

"Mom, I didn't steal. I just took some picture books from my classmates to read, and also took a few pencils." Banggeng lowered his head and said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang was relieved: "Huai Ru, the child has no more pens to use, so he should borrow one from his classmates. The teacher was exaggerating a bit, you have to trust the child!"

"Mom, how can you just take other people's things? Isn't this stealing?" Qin Huairu said bluntly.
