Return To 1998

The next day, Friday, November 6th.

Shazhou County, Zhulin Middle School.

Xu Tongdao's alma mater.

early morning.

In the teacher's dormitory area behind the teaching building, the 42-year-old Wang Ciyi was woken up by the alarm on his mobile phone. He reached out to touch the phone and wanted to turn off the alarm.

As a result, after touching it a few times, I bumped the phone from under the pillow to the bed.

The alarm sound that was originally under the pillow was not that loud, but when it fell under the bed, the alarm sound became a bit harsh.

His wife, Bai Ping, who was sleeping on the other side of the bed, immediately put a foot on his leg and scolded, Turn off the alarm! It's so noisy!

Ai, ai, this is off, this is off!

Wang Ciyi quickly got up and got out of bed, picked up the phone and turned off the alarm.

The world was quiet, his wife Bai Ping pursed her lips, turned over and continued to sleep. Wang Ciyi glanced at the light outside the window, sighed, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, quietly dressed and put on shoes, then left the bedroom and went to Kitchen for breakfast.

Bai Ping doesn't know how to cook, so Wang Ciyi's task of cooking every day at home is done by Wang Ciyi.

Over the years, he has gotten used to it.

He was Xu Tongdao's language teacher and head teacher.

He has been teaching for more than 20 years, and he may not remember exactly how many students he has taught.

Life... has already smoothed out his edges and corners. At only 42 years old, he exudes a twilight energy all over his body. For the rest of his life, it seems that he can see the end at a glance.

He didn't know that a student he taught more than ten years ago, Tongdao Xu, had become the richest man in the province.

In this early morning, Wang Ciyi skillfully cooked porridge, fried eggs, boiled water, and cleaned the house by the way.

During the period, he also made some noodles, took out the meat filling from the refrigerator, and now wrapped some small wontons and cooked them in the pot.

His wife, Bai Ping, likes to eat freshly boiled wontons.

When the wontons were cooked, he knocked on the bedroom door, and then knocked on his son's door to wake them up.

While they were getting up to wash up, Wang Ciyi went to the breakfast shop outside the school gate to buy a few meat buns and two fried dough sticks, as well as a cup of soy milk, which his son loves.

Marrying a wife who can't cook is the price.

When the family of three had breakfast together, Bai Ping and her son were still eating and commenting as usual.

Bai Ping: This egg has been fried so old, is it still nutritious? I told you to fry sweet-hearted eggs, sweet-hearted eggs! Are you always fried so old?

Son: Dad! The soy milk is cold today and not hot enough. Can you help me warm it up?

As the 14-year-old son said, he put the soy milk cup in front of Wang Ciyi.

It was hot when I bought it. Who made you dawdle just now?

Wang Ciyi snorted, but he had already picked up the soy milk and went to the kitchen.

For Wang Ciyi, today is an ordinary day, and the only thing worth looking forward to is that tomorrow is the weekend, and you can rest.

He had thought about it two days ago. On weekends, he would go out fishing for a day to relax himself.

You can justifiably skip a meal and listen to your wife's nagging during the day.

This... is already his last stubbornness.

After breakfast, he made himself a cup of tea, and then he took the lesson plan and textbook and walked to his office without any hassle.

When he arrived, four of the other seven colleagues in the office had already arrived.

Some were wiping the table, some were mopping the floor, and some were drinking tea and chatting.

Wang Ciyi came to his seat, picked up the rag and started wiping the table.

After wiping the table, he sat down to drink tea when a young female teacher suddenly walked in outside the door.

Wang Ciyi subconsciously glanced at the female teacher's face and chest. At his age, he could only pass the eye addiction.

It has to be the quiet one.

Otherwise, he will be accused of bad character.

Usually this young and beautiful teacher doesn't talk to Wang Ciyi very much, but today... as soon as she entered the door, with a curious smile on her face, she walked quickly to Wang Ciyi's desk, Hey, Teacher Wang, you work in our school. After so many years, do you remember there used to be a student named Xu Tongdao in our school?

Some of the other four people in the office turned a deaf ear and didn't take it to heart. Some people looked here curiously, while Wang Ciyi was stunned.

He remembered Xu Tongdao.

Although he has brought many classes of students, but... in each class he brings, there are always a handful of students with top grades.

Moreover, the enrollment rate of the third grade graduating class of Zhulin Middle School is too low every year.

Few students in one grade a year can be admitted to high school with their ability. If other students want to go to high school, they can only go to private high school, or pay a large amount of school selection fee to county No. 1 or county No. 2 high school.

In his nearly 20 years of coaching career, what he regrets the most... is Tongdao Xu.

Because other students, no matter how poor their family background, as long as they are admitted to high school, the family will continue to pay for it. Only Xu Tongdao, who was admitted to high school, but gave up his studies.

Tongdao Xu? You know him? What did you ask him for?

Wang Ciyi asked back in doubt.

The beautiful teacher's eyes lit up, Huh? Mr. Wang, do you really know this Xu Tongdao? He used to be from our Zhulin Middle School? No way? By the way, Mr. Wang, have you taught this Xu Tongdao before? This guy It's amazing now!

Her tone was so surprising that she finally attracted the attention of all the people in the office.

A male teacher in his thirties asked curiously, What's the situation? What are you talking about?

Wang Ciyi smiled subconsciously and nodded, I have taught him more than that, this Xu Tongdao used to be a student in my class, and I have been his head teacher for two and a half years!

The beautiful teacher was startled, her upper body subconsciously leaned back, her eyes widened a bit, No way? Teacher Wang, then, do you still have the contact information of this Xu Tongdao? Don't you know? This Xu Tongdao Now he is the richest man in our province! I just saw the news on the Internet last night.

I saw an introduction to him on the news, saying that his origin is from our side, so I was curious and wanted to ask if he had studied at our Zhulin Middle School before, but I didn't expect... Hey! I didn't expect this Xu Tongdao to be a student in your class before? Teacher Wong! Are you really his head teacher? Well, then you should get in touch with him, you are his former class teacher, he might be able to give you a hand! They are now the richest man in our province!

Wang Ciyi was stunned.

The other four teachers in the office also looked at each other in shock.

Really? Our school has the richest man? This...

A male teacher couldn't believe it.

Another male teacher asked curiously: Mr. Wang, why did you only serve as his head teacher for two and a half years? It won't be the last semester of the third year of junior high...then the students were assigned to the experimental class?

Wang Ciyi was still stunned, and nodded subconsciously.

He has spent too much time and energy on the family over the years. He remembers that when he took Tongdao Xu and their class, his son was just born, and his wife could not cook. He will bear most of his life.

So, when he was competing for the head teacher of the experimental class that year, the school leaders excluded him on the grounds that he had to take care of his family.
