A ragged cub at the beginning

The workshop was on track, the training of new teachers was almost complete, and Tang Xu began to recruit students. She was even busier, and Du Yun could barely talk to her in a day. She could not see him during the day, and she had to sort out the names and materials at night, and the number of people was decreasing day by day.

"Eat this and go to bed early, and we'll do it tomorrow, okay?" Du Yun put down the freshly steamed bird's nest and touched her increasingly thin face.

"Wait a minute, I..." Tang Xu turned her head and saw the pain and helplessness in Du Yun's eyes. She felt like she was stung. She threw the pen into the pen wash, hooked her arm around Du Yun's neck and kissed him, then rubbed her cheek against his face, "Okay!"

She finished the bird's nest in one gulp, wondering if she should find a secretary. She was too busy. She had to deal with kindergarten matters during the day and organize materials at night. She had no time to spend with her children and husband.

Tang Xu lay on Du Yun's back and asked him to carry her to wash up. "What do you think about me buying a maid? It would be best if she can read and help me with some things."

"can."

It was Butler Qi's turn to take action again, but he looked around and didn't see anything satisfactory. "Why don't we go to the county to have a look? None of the ones in town are suitable."

Tang Xu nodded, "Okay, I'll go check out our shop, but I don't have time for now, maybe later."

Butler Qi had to stay at home and it was inconvenient for him to go out, so the plan had to be put on hold for the time being.

With the county magistrate's praise, as soon as the news of Qingyang Kindergarten's enrollment was released, many people came with their children.

Tang Xu explained until his voice became hoarse every day, answering all kinds of questions from parents.

This time she raised the annual tuition by two taels. Last time, she was inexperienced and couldn't raise the price on the spur of the moment. Next year, each student's tuition will be four taels per year.

Most people had no objection. After all, last semester, the children brought back some things from kindergarten from time to time, including school uniforms, toys and books, which were not cheap. The children could learn both literature and martial arts, and they also had free doctors, so it was not a loss at all.

But even with the tuition increase, Qingyang still couldn't make much money. Tang Xu no longer expected it to make money. After all, this was not the original purpose. Otherwise, it would take more than one or two years to make back the initial construction costs.

Tang Xu could only place his hopes on the mooncake workshop and the portrait shop, which should now be called the fan shop.

After working hard for half a month, this batch of students was basically confirmed.

Carpenter Li had to stop his balancing car and rush to make the school sign. All his current work is given to him by Qingyang. He uses good materials and makes it meticulously, and the two have always had a pleasant cooperation.

Tang Xu scheduled the school to start on October 1st. On the second day of school, the balance bike competition would be held on the street where Qingyang was located.

At that time, the rope will be pulled up and Du Yun will send people to maintain order.

No one has ever heard of a balance bike, let alone a bike that can be used by children, which makes people even more curious.

Qingyang has been in the limelight this year, and many classes for children with children have been unable to recruit students. Two students and a scholar who make a living from this got together, and their students all dropped out of school and went to Qingyang.

Lu Wuliang is an old man who is almost fifty years old. He is only a student now. His family depends on his students for food. When the students leave, the family is almost out of food. His son is over thirty and still hasn't passed the exam. He is extremely stupid. He frowned, "It's ridiculous. A group of women can teach? They are misleading students!"

Zhang Qude was less than 40 years old, and was also a student. His family lived on the shop that his wife brought as a dowry. He took students because he enjoyed the feeling of educating people. At this time, he was disdainful, "These people are simply stupid, without any achievements, and they are all girls. What are they sending them to do? To learn embroidery?"

Wu Xin is over 40 years old and has only been a scholar for two years. He once wanted to become a teacher at Qingshan Academy, but was rejected. He was not satisfied and opened a class to teach students. He took advantage of his status as a scholar and charged high fees, and was also picky about students. He slammed the table and said, "This is too much. I didn't take her seriously before, but now we have to do something."

But what can we do? Zhang Qude sighed, "She is the mayor's wife, what can we do?"

Thinking of the silver that belonged to him, Lu Wuliang said indignantly: "We should protest! It is ridiculous to prohibit women from being teachers! Women should stay at home to take care of their husbands and children. How can it be wrong to show up in public?"

Wu Xin shook her head. "With only the three of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to accomplish anything."

Zhang Qude remembered something and leaned closer to whisper, "I heard that the woman was originally a painter. She had some skills and her painting was pretty good. She opened the kindergarten after she hooked up with the mayor. She also had a stall on the street and was very famous. Who knows where she made her money?"

Lu Wuliang sneered, "What kind of ability can a woman have? Who knows if she is setting up a stall to paint or for something else."

Wu Xin raised the corner of her mouth and smiled knowingly, "What else can I do? Women are born to seduce men."

A man at the next table secretly listened for a while and thought they were talking about someone he knew, so he immediately got off the table and came over, "Brothers, are you talking about the girl named Tang?"

"You know him too?" Lu Wuliang looked at the man.

"I know her. I saw her setting up a stall on Shuxiang Street." He Xide was there at the time. Their stalls were next to each other and he was threatened by the woman. Later, he made up a few lies, but he didn't expect that the teacher of the academy would specially teach a class to educate those who were on good terms with him, causing those people to distance themselves from him.

His sister-in-law is always in a bad mood, and his wife has a sad face all day long, just burying her head in work, and they can't talk to each other. She doesn't look like his wife, but more like his mother.

The four of them got together and immediately hit it off in making up dirty stories about women, as they had similar tastes.

Tang Xu didn't know yet that she was being slandered. She finally had some time to play with the children.

The kindergarten was on holiday, so she took July Jiarui and Fang Zijun out for a walk, and Tang Qing quietly fell behind.

Tang Xu was so unstable, what if he lost the little brat? He was here to protect these little brats, not to play with them.

After walking a few steps, he smelled the aroma of oil. Tang Xu followed the smell and saw a middle-aged couple selling fried sesame balls. The sesame balls were half the size of Tang Xu's palm and smelled very fragrant. "How much are they?"

"Two cents for one, three cents for two. Would you like to try one?" the old lady greeted warmly.

"Give it to me, here, six." Tang Xu counted out nine coins and handed them over.

"Mom, it's so big, I don't think I can finish it." July stared at the big glutinous rice ball, which was bigger than his hand.

"I can finish it. I can eat two." Jiarui licked his lips.

"I brought money, Aunt Xu." Fang Zijun took out the money, but was pushed back by Tang Xu.

"Keep the money yourself. The master is here, so it's not your turn to pay." Tang Xu turned his head and saw someone quickly hiding behind a stall. "Xiao Qing, don't hide. Come and eat the glutinous rice balls."

Discovered? Tang Qing stuck his head out and bumped into Tang Xu's smiling eyes. How did she discover it? Tang Qing scratched his head, with a stern face, but he was actually happy in his heart. The glutinous rice balls were delicious and he liked them.
