Good Times in the Rebirth Era

Chapter 687 The last question

Although Director Hu said that lottery tickets were like gambling, he was thinking about this issue over and over again at night.

The country has a large population base. If lottery tickets were actually issued, would only 100,000 people buy them?
Two yuan is a bit expensive, but it is the price of two kilograms of meat, so many people will still buy it.

If everyone contributes a little, the school may have a new building.

It was a good idea, and she would definitely bring it up if she had the chance.

It rarely cleared up the next day, but the temperature was still low.

Director Hu and his team walked several miles of mountain roads with people from the local Women's Federation to promote the Chunhe Foundation.

Jiang Xinyu didn't bring any change of clothes with her this time. She wore a military coat that had been with her for several years.

When the weather is bad, the clothes feel heavier than usual when I wear them.

Girls and parents from several nearby villages, as well as school leaders and teachers, were gathered in the open space of this village.

Everyone kept asking why only donations were given to girls to go to school and why no help was given to boys?
The secretary of the Women's Federation held a loudspeaker on the platform and said, "Why do you think there are more boys than girls in the school?"

"Can male babies and female babies be the same?"

"Girls are raised by someone else's family. Isn't it a waste for them to go to school?"

“We have this spare money, why not give it to ourselves.”

...

The crowd said anything. Jiang Xinyu had long known that rural areas favored boys over girls, so she didn't feel at all disturbed when she heard these words.

The more backward a place is, the more ignorant it is. If it wants to improve, it still needs education.

Director Hu had a face as if someone owed her a lot of money. Looking at the mess underneath, he got up and went to the dirt platform to take the speaker and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet."

Although Director Hu is a lesbian, she is a lesbian who has been to the Great Hall of the People, seen big scenes, and speaks her mind in her office. She can control the situation with a straight face.

"Why donate to girls? It's because of your patriarchal mentality. What's wrong? The girls are not your biological children? If you have any objections, we can donate to girls elsewhere. There are many poor areas."

Director Hu was really angry and couldn't hold back his anger after hearing those outrageous words. This was just the result of holding back in order to maintain his image as a cadre.

After she finished speaking, there was complete silence.

It is unfair to only donate money to boys for girls to go to school, but it is better than nothing. Saving money from your own pocket is always a good thing.

Director Hu: "Each village committee should read the application conditions to you in advance. If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

"Comrade, although we are both formal employees and receive monthly wages, our combined wages are only thirty-one. My wife works in a school, but the school cannot pay her wages all year round. Life is very tight for my family, with six people in the family. My child, life is indeed difficult. According to the regulations that you two-income earners cannot apply for subsidies, we are not eligible to apply."

Although the man's words made the school look a little embarrassed, he was telling the truth.

The schools are in such dilapidated condition that they can only be repaired and used. The commune cannot allocate more money, so the schools can only reduce expenditures in all aspects.

Jiang Xinyu thought that Director Hu would say something about the deficiencies in the application policy, but she didn't expect that she would say those words. Director Hu frowned and said, "Have fewer children and better health, and you will live a happy life! Just have so many children to feed yourself? Can a family live better than other families with fewer children?"

"Director, I just want to know if families like ours are still eligible to apply for subsidies. You said it's useless to have fewer children. We can't just stuff the children back in. Can we stuff them back in if we want to?"

There was a roar of laughter.

The expression on Director Hu's face did not change at all and was very stable.

"If your situation is true, ask the principal to issue a certificate to your lover, and then people from the foundation will verify it and give you a chance to apply."

The Chunhe Foundation is headquartered in the capital, but in order to carry out the affairs of Northern Hebei Province smoothly, a branch of the Women's Federation here was separated to deal with the Chunhe Foundation, and offices were also set up in communes and counties.

Director Hu is familiar with all the foundation's problems, no matter how big or small, and can handle all aspects of questions with ease.

An hour later, Director Hu's throat was about to smoke. She swallowed her dry throat and continued: "Let me make one last point. Our funds are directly distributed to the school. The school will disclose the list of subsidized students to the village every semester. If there is any behavior in the school that allows people to be replaced, or due to various relationships, families with good family conditions and who can go to school without the funds occupy the quota, you can write to the foundation to report it. The original intention of setting up our foundation is In order to allow girls from poor families to have the opportunity to receive education, we must make sure that every money is used where it should be used. The eyes of the people are sharp, and the school needs your supervision so that the foundation can help those who really need help. …”

Director Hu's voice became hoarse and foam appeared at the corners of his mouth.

After it was over, there was warm applause and everyone shouted "Okay".

Director Hu casually wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, "Okay, okay, save yourself the effort, I have one last question to ask."

People: "..."

Is it because they don't know how to count? I remember what I just said was the last question.

How long will it last in this cold weather? After finishing this last question, are there any other questions?

The enthusiasm of the crowd had cooled down.

Sitting next to Jiang Xinyu was a staff member of the foundation. She whispered into Jiang Xinyu's ear and said, "The director always drags on the meeting. I estimate it will take at least twenty minutes."

Procrastination is not a big problem. The biggest problem is that the director does not allow others to steal her "leadlight" during meetings. The director must be the one who takes the lead, and the assigned work must be in accordance with her, otherwise she will be criticized.

The staff complained in their hearts, but did not dare to tell Jiang Xinyu. She couldn't understand. Jiang Xinyu and Director Hu obviously didn't get along during the previous meeting, but there was no sign of it in the past few days of communication.

Jiang Xinyu nodded: "Director Hu is a serious and responsible comrade."

She thought that Director Hu went up to grab the speaker because he saw that the previous lesbian could not control the situation, so she was filled with righteous indignation and went up to talk for so long.

After talking for a long time, her voice became hoarse. No matter how cold it was, she could only stand there. She didn't think there was any chance of being in the limelight. Director Hu must be a serious and responsible comrade. Otherwise, how could he remember the foundation's regulations? How about everything being in order?
Director Hu swallowed his dry throat and continued: "This last question is about having children. Fewer and better children lead to a happy life. I will explain to you how Liu is happier than other families if they have fewer children..."

Click, click, the light of a camera flashed across the platform.

Jiang Xinyu: "..."

When were there reporters in the crowd?

Director Hu works so hard, he should be in the news!
