A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Chapter 277 Discussing the Amount of Funding

But if a person has the right temperament, sometimes it really doesn't matter what they wear.

Gu Qinghuan's face would look good even if it was covered with sackcloth, and with her confident smile, it would make people feel ashamed of themselves.

Gu Qinghuan did not tell everyone why he came right away, but instead invited them to have dinner together.

She wanted to test the Wang couple's attitude towards Wang Ruolan's study first, whether they agreed or disagreed.

The only sound that could be heard during the meal was the sound of chopsticks being moved.

When they were almost done eating, Gu Qinghuan put down her chopsticks and asked tentatively, "Sister, Ruolan ranked second in the school this time and will definitely be admitted to the county high school. What do you think?"

A complex expression flashed across Ruolan's mother's face, first surprise, then helplessness, melancholy, and depression.

My father was silent for a long time.

They have tried their best and really can't afford it.

No, in fact, if we sell everything we have, borrow money from all the relatives in the village, and mobilize the whole family, we can turn her over.

But they not only have a daughter, Wang Ruolan, they also have a son who is still unaccounted for.

The family is already poor. If they spend all the money on their daughter's education, they will not be able to pay for their son's marriage in two years and will be in debt. No girl will like such a family. Are they going to let the child remain single?

In this environment where boys are valued over girls and male offspring are given priority.

It was not easy for them to support their daughter until she graduated from junior high school.

Wang Ruolan was a rare girl in the village who had received an education. Even the secretary's daughter, Wang Xiaowei, had not received much education and could not even read.

This is the limit of the couple's vision. We cannot say that they are ignorant. We can only say that it is because of poverty that a penny can make a hero fall.

Wang Ruolan already knew the situation at home. She lowered her head and said nothing. She understood her parents’ difficulties and didn’t want to force them.

When Wang Rujun heard this, the meat in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

Her sister did so well in the exam?

Unfortunately, her parents would not support her, and his repeated attempts to persuade them were in vain.

It was so long that Gu Qinghuan thought the couple could no longer speak to each other.

Wang Ruolan's mother choked up and said, "Teacher Gu, I want to support her, but we really don't have the ability.

In the past few years, my family has not saved a penny to support her education. Everyone in the village says we are stupid.

I also have a son, and he's going to get married in two years, and I'll have to build two more houses, and everything will cost money.

I can’t sacrifice my whole family for her.”

This is the truth from a mother.

He did not deny the choice between his two children and was very honest.

In fact, this is also human nature.

Gu Qinghuan understood that life was not easy for everyone.

As long as they hope their daughter can continue her studies, that's enough.

"This time, I came here just for Ruolan's studies.

Her grades are good. I am very optimistic about her and am willing to sponsor her to continue her studies.

If you are willing, I will pay for her tuition and living expenses for the next two years."

When Gu Qinghuan said this, everyone at the table had different reactions.

But to sum it up, it can be summed up in two words: surprise.

Wang Ruolan had known this for a long time, but when Gu Qinghuan said it, the heavy stone in her heart fell.

"You...you really want to sponsor her studies? Teacher Gu, this, this, this is not a small amount of money. Have you really thought it through?" Wang Ruolan's mother confirmed with her cautiously.

She was afraid that the teacher was not aware of the situation and would back out halfway through providing financial assistance, making the child even more desperate. It would be better not to give her hope in the first place.

After all, who would be willing to spend hundreds of dollars on a stranger these days, especially without asking for anything in return?

Is there really anyone in the world willing to be such a sucker?

If Wang Ruolan hadn't personally introduced Gu Qinghuan's identity, they would probably have thought she was a liar.

"Don't worry, the money has been prepared long ago, and I came here just to get your consent.

I will sign a donation contract with you, and you must guarantee that every penny I give you will be spent on Ruolan's studies."

Wang Ruojun couldn't wait to assure: "We agree, we all agree. Teacher, don't worry, I will never let my parents touch a penny. I will give it all to my sister's education, and I won't touch it either."

He understood his sister's desire to continue studying so well that sometimes he even thought she was crazy.

What’s so good about reading?

He didn't understand, but he was willing to support his sister's decision and fulfill her dream.

Wang Ruolan was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears.

Although her parents did not give her priority, she did not resent them because that was the way the world was and she was already happier than many girls.

Ruolan's father's eyes were red.

"Teacher Gu, I have nothing else to say to express my gratitude. I bow to you and my whole family thanks you for your great kindness.

Ruolan, from now on Teacher Gu will be your adopted parent, you have to respect her more than you respect us.

If you can really become famous in the future, don’t forget the kindness of your teacher.”

Wang Ruolan nodded frantically, tears rolling down her eyes.

"I understand."

Gu Qinghuan was completely following her heart to support them at this moment. In fact, she did not expect any return. However, she was greatly comforted because the child she supported was a kind-hearted person.

Even if she didn't have Wang Zhiyuan's money, she would still do it.

After dinner, Gu Qinghuan called Wang's father and mother over to discuss the specific amount of funding.

According to Lin Muyang, the tuition for high school is about ten yuan per semester.

In addition, there are living expenses and tuition fees.

This issue is worth discussing. After all, the cost of living can be high or low according to different standards. They have to negotiate a standard that both parties are satisfied with and implement it accordingly.

Gu Qinghuan also had no idea how much Wang Ruolan's living expenses usually were in a month.

Father Wang waved his hand and said, "Teacher Gu, our Ruolan doesn't spend much money on food on weekdays. We can just bring a bag of steamed buns and a box of pickles from home to get by for a week.

Otherwise, don't worry about living expenses, just pay for tuition, accommodation and school supplies."

Wang's father was also embarrassed to spend too much money on other people, so he decided to pay for their own food and drink.

Wang Ruolan lowered her head and said nothing when she heard this. She told herself that it didn’t matter. As long as she could study, she was willing to endure any hardship.

She used to be a loner in class and had few friends because her family was too poor.

She secretly ate black flour steamed buns with pickled cabbage for every meal. She could not compare with other students, so she was embarrassed to get too close to them for fear of being accused of taking advantage of them.

Gu Qinghuan noticed the girl's sensitive thoughts and a trace of pity flashed across his heart.

She shook her head: "Big brother, big sister, you can't count like that. Ruolan is in the period of growth, and studying is a brain-intensive task. She must get enough nutrition. How can she just eat cold steamed buns and pickles?"

"If this girl wants to study, she should not expect to enjoy a good life. It's already very good to have this every day." The Queen Mother glared at Wang Ruolan.
