Chapter 139

Zhang Ma and Shi Wuwei had already brought back some of the things and moved into Zhu Yanshu’s new house.

After Zhu Yanshu received her teaching position, the principal had to arrange a house for her. Originally, he said that he would find a house for her from the girls’ dormitory or other school buildings, but Prof. Dai stopped, he said: “My small building has always been lived alone, it’s really too wasteful, instead of finding an unsuitable house elsewhere for Ms. Zhu mother and daughter to live in, it would be better for them to live in the upstairs of my building, the third and the fourth floors have always been empty.

Professor Dai’s little red building has four floors, the first floor is the classroom and cafeteria, the second floor is where he lives, the third and fourth floors are used by him to put books. But really no one lives, although he will also take in students, but the students have a dormitory, and will not spend the night in his little red building.

In this way, of course, it was much better than a room.

Zhu Yanshu immediately agreed. Although the principal was very enthusiastic, she didn’t want to live without a toilet and washroom, using a toilet? Oh my god, that would be horrible.

So as soon as Prof. Dai mentioned it, she immediately agreed.

The principal was also amenable to good advice.

As soon as Zhang Ma came and heard about this, she went to see the little red building again and although she disliked the mess inside, she said it was good.

“This is much more spacious, and you mother and daughter can also have one room each.” Zhang Ma took a look at the third and fourth floors of the Little Red Mansion, and discussed with Prof. Dai, why not lend the third and fourth floors to the Zhu family mother and daughter to use, for one thing, the woman’s family has a lot of things, and secondly, so that Prof. Dai does not have to go upstairs in the future, but also to avoid suspicion. After all, it is a man and a woman living together on the same floor, if the Zhu family mother and daughter live on the third floor, Prof. Dai and then run to the fourth floor from time to time, how inappropriate ah.

Zhu Yanshu also felt that this is better in her heart, but she was afraid of bullying others too much and was embarrassed.

She said: “Mrs. Zhang, don’t say that, it’s too bad. Alas, but if there were more rooms, I would like to move all of my father’s books over here, and put them over there, it’s really reassuring to me.”

Prof. Dai was willing to give up the house, he only sleeps in one bed, the third and fourth floors do not do anything else but put books, now heard that they want to put Zhu family’s collection of books, and immediately agreed in a row, “Good, good, good, move all the books over here, put them over there, it really makes me feel relieved, ah. This is good, move all the books good! Come, come, Wuwei ah, you quickly go to move books ah! Ouch, nothing can happen to the books, or I’ll go with you!”

Both sides were happy, Professor Dai and Shi Wuwei went back to the Zhu family building together to move the books, Zhang Ma rolled up her sleeves and started cleaning, she didn’t want Zhu Yanshu to do anything, she only instructed Yang Yuyan and Yang Yucicada to organize all of Professor Dai’s books that were placed on the third and fourth floors, to vacate a few people’s rooms, and to vacate the place for the books to be placed again.

She couldn’t read or write, so she didn’t go and make trouble.

Sisters Yang Yuyan and Yang Yucicang were not good at housework, but organizing books was not difficult. They divided up the work, Yang Yuyan knows a little bit of Japanese, English, Russian and French, but she is not good with ancient books, so Yang Yucan is in charge of organizing the ancient books, and Yang Yuyan will do the rest. Two people each keep a list, move a set of books on a note, cleaned up an author’s book on a note, rules and regulations, organized, in the third floor between the fourth floor shuttle back and forth, running fast.

Zhu Yanshu searched for a chair and sat down to talk with Zhang Ma. Zhang Ma carried a basin, a rag, and a chicken feather duster, dusting and wiping ash back and forth.

Zhang Ma said, “Miss, you are now considered a professional woman.”

Zhu Yanshu from the time she left the principal’s office, the smile at the corner of her mouth never went down, smilingly said, “What kind of professional woman? I’m half a bucket of water myself, alas, I’m only afraid of being coaxed down by the students when I get to the podium.”

Mrs. Zhang said, “What are you afraid of? You used to want to be a female interpreter and a female diplomat.”

Zhu Yanshu: “When I was a child, I talked nonsense, but in the end I just made people laugh. Now that I’ve given birth to two daughters, I’m just a housewife.”

Zhang Ma didn’t laugh a while ago, but now she is really laughing: “Quickly stop teasing me! A housewife? From the time you gave birth to the first one, I was the one who wrapped the diapers, have you ever done anything else besides breastfeeding? Even when you feed the baby, it’s me who helps you hold your head, and you still think the baby is heavy.”

Zhu Yanshu: “I’ve also raised the child!”

Zhang Ma: “Alright, alright, you just gave birth to them, what did you do with the rest? By now, you can’t even raise a stove or boil water. If I had to rely on you, the two children would have starved to death long ago. Do you remember? When the first miss had milk moss and the second miss had diarrhea, you would cry out for me.” She pinched her throat and followed Zhu Yanshu’s example, “Zhang Ma! Zhang Ma, come quickly! Yan Yan has diarrhea!”

Zhu Yanshu grunted heavily, unhappy.

Zhang Ma put down the rag and came back, “Miss, I’m saying this to tell you, stop trying to be some housewife soon, you won’t be able to do it either. It’s better to be your professional woman. Otherwise, you will only play mahjong in your life? Will you only play mahjong when you are old?”

Zhu Yanshu was scared back by Zhang Ma even though she had a point of retreat. She now has no way out at all. Think about it, if she dies and looks back on her past life, she will only be playing mahjong? Then this life is too miserable.

Zhu Yanshu couldn’t sit still, found an empty room and started to write a lesson plan.

For lunch, they went to the cafeteria.

Zhang Ma was too embarrassed to go to the cafeteria and said, “I haven’t finished yet, you guys go to the cafeteria and eat, I’ll just eat here.”

However, Prof. Dai was running to pick up the Zhu family early in the morning, so breakfast was not made, and the stove was all cold.

Yang Yuyan went to the kitchen and saw that there were only a few cold steamed buns left, she came out and said to Zhu Yanshu, “I think it’s better to call some rice for Zhang Ma to bring back later.”

Zhu Yanshu said, “That’s fine. By the way, call some more, Prof. Dai and Mr. Shi went to move the books and didn’t eat either. Really, this Professor Dai doesn’t even eat lunch once he hears about books.”

The mother and daughter trio took the bowls and pots and went to the cafeteria, they didn’t want Fu Peixian to wait at the entrance of the cafeteria, as soon as she saw Yang Yucan and Yang Yuyan sisters, she welcomed them.

Yang Yucan hurriedly went forward to welcome her, leaving Yang Yuyan to introduce Fu Peixian to Zhu Yanshu in a low voice.

Yang Yuyan was simple and concise: “The fourth miss of the Fu family, she is going to marry her cousin who will be going to the front soon.”

Zhu Yanshu looks at Miss Fu’s short hair and asks in a low voice, “Oh, so her cousin is quite open-minded?” Female students cut short hair more, but not everyone cut short hair, more cut short hair home to be beaten. Miss Fu is going to get married and still has short hair, so it can be seen that her family is enlightened and her future in-laws are quite enlightened.

Yang Yuyan shook her head, “I don’t know about this.”

Miss Fu walked over with Yang Yucan and introduced herself, “My name is Fu Peixian, I was a fellow student with Miss Yang, good day Auntie.”

Zhu Yanshu smiled and said, “My name is Zhu Yanshu, you can just address me as Professor Zhu.”

Fu Peixian was instantly shocked, and immediately asked, “I saw on my bulletin board that the principal has hired a new scholarly expert, Professor Zhu, is that you?”

Zhu Yanshu was also a bit surprised, “Has the principal already announced it?”

The group didn’t go to the cafeteria, they first rushed to the bulletin board in front of the principal’s building, where a group of students had already gathered around, all looking at the new announcement.

Zhu Yanshu they walked over to see, see the principal wrote on the announcement that it is the autumn of many times, the current situation is turbulent, people’s hearts are uneasy, in order to enable students to hear more voices, see a bigger world, and come into contact with more advanced ideas, he purposely paid three visits to the flosters, and invited Mr. Zhu Yanshu of the Zhu family to come out, and if everyone can learn the skin of Mr. Zhu’s advanced ideas, then it is a fortunate thing for everyone, no less than a spark in the darkness, and a street light in the middle of the night. A streetlight cloud.

Because of the great blowing, people can’t help but add a lot of fascination to Mr. Zhu Yanshu. The students in front of the bulletin were just talking about what is the origin of this Mr. Zhu, and how come the principal esteems him so much?

Fu Peixian, who was standing there, also saw the announcement just now, and had the same doubts as everyone else, because she really couldn’t imagine what other ideas she hadn’t been exposed to, what she hadn’t thought about.

But after seeing Zhu Yanshu with her own eyes, she realized with a jolt – it was indeed something she had never thought about!

Mr. Zhu Yanshu, a divorced woman with two daughters, who had been running the household for many years, was so determined to step out of the house and into the school to become a professor for everyone in these turbulent times. Her courage is just astounding.

And the path she chose also made Fu Peixian feel shocked.

She abruptly realized that the road in front of her was actually much more than the ones she thought.
