"Look at what your child does. He, he, he takes money to do homework for others." Mrs. He hugged her chest, her chest heaving.
Zhan Aiping asked: "How much did you charge?"
Mrs. He said, "Fifty cents... it's not that much."
Zhan Aiping asked again: "This money came from an illegal source, right? Was it stolen?"
Hearing the word "steal", Mrs. He's expression was very strange. Perhaps because family disgrace should not be made public, she held back and said nothing.
"Then I'll return the fifty cents to your family... Sister He, this is not the fault of one child, but of two children. Your King Kong is also at fault. He is a school-age child, but he asked a non-schooler to do his summer homework. What was he thinking?"
Zhan Aiping flipped through the homework book again. Looking at the carefully written summer homework, she suddenly felt a little sorry for her own sweet and sour pork. It was written very carefully, without any perfunctory or lazy work. It was a meticulous job. She didn't know how long it took her to finish it, but she only earned fifty cents. It was not easy.
Mrs. He waved her hand and said, "Forget about the fifty cents. I'll ask your little pot bun not to write it next time."
Zhan Aiping said: "That won't do. Fifty cents is not a small matter."
The expression on Sister He's face was very interesting. She held her mouth tightly, but she couldn't hide the truth anymore, so she finally couldn't help but say, "Stop with this fifty cents. This is the private money hidden by King Kong's father. If it hadn't been exposed this time, I wouldn't have known about it."
Zhan Aiping: "... have a lot of private money?"
Mrs. He has confiscated her husband's private money and probably made a lot of money. It's free money, so she doesn't care about the dime or fifty cents.
After all, it is not easy for such a young child to write the homework so neatly.
Mrs. He: "Jin Gang and your little Guo Bao have discussed the next time. He said he will buy homework from him in the future."
Zhan Aiping couldn't help laughing: "His father's private money has become his little piggy bank?"
The kid is quite knowledgeable about sustainable development. Even when his father’s piggy bank lost money, he didn’t dare to say much.
Sister He: "This child deserves to be punished!"
"Wait until his father comes back and give him a good lesson!"
"If his teacher hadn't found out, I wouldn't have known..."
The person who was most hurt in the King Kong family was probably his father. He lost his private money, so he had to have a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.
After seeing off Mrs. He, Zhan Aiping waited for the two little ones to finish school. When her son came back, Zhan called Comrade Youyou over to talk, "Did you help King Kong with his homework?"
Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Guo Bao Rou nodded honestly. He even took out fifty cents from the book and happily handed the stolen money to his mother: "Mom, this is for you."
"I want to save more for my mother..."
Zhan Aiping laughed: "How many other people did you write to?"
The sweet and sour pork froze for a moment, then confessed honestly: "Dangdang and Shitou."
Zhan Aiping hummed: "Then why is there only fifty cents here?"
This business is so broad that it even covers homework for grades one, two and three.
Xiao Guobao stood on tiptoe again, fished out a dollar from two small corners, and gave it to his mother.
Zhan Aiping asked: "Is there anything else?"
Pot-Boiled Pork shook his head: "No more."
He added: "I want to hand them all over to my mother."
Zhan Aiping: “…” You little rascal.
"Don't write homework for others in the future. The homework assigned by the teacher is to test the learning results. If you help others with their homework, you are not helping them, but delaying their studies - especially don't help your sister Xiao Tangyuan with her homework in the future." Zhan Aiping thought that this must be stopped.
Guo Bao Rou said aggrievedly: "Mom, you asked me to help my sister with her homework, it's better for me to do it for her."
It's a lot of effort to ask my sister to do some math problems by herself.
The reason why he started this business was inspired by his own sister. For some people, doing homework is really a torture.
But it was different with sweet and sour pork. He didn't like to play those childish tricks. He liked to do math, do exercises, and finish his homework neatly.
Zhan Aiping said: "You can't give up just because there are difficulties. You have to encourage your sister."
Pot-fried pork: “…”
Zhan Aiping asked: "Do you do homework for others because you want to make money or -"
Sweet and sour pork raised his hand and said, "Mom, I like doing homework!"
Zhan Aiping: “…”
These two kids in their family are really something, one likes to do homework, and the other avoids doing homework.
Pot-fried pork nodded.
Sweet and sour pork has a strong ability to learn independently. He will read and study by himself without the supervision of adults. Zhan Aiping thought about asking her second sister-in-law for more books. Her second sister-in-law works at the Xinhua Bookstore, so she asked her to recommend some books suitable for children, not only subjects like Chinese and mathematics, but also other subjects such as astronomy and geography... Children are young, and it is the time to cultivate their interests. They can't be turned into learning machines just because they have a talent for learning.
Zhan Aiping said: "You should hang out with your sister more often in the future."
Rather than turning her child into a child prodigy, Zhan Aiping still hopes that her son can have many friends of the same age and have a happy childhood.
When Gu Sheng came back, Zhan Aiping told him about this matter, "Our two children are smart, they can make money at such a young age."
"Why didn't our child take out his father's private money?"
Gu Sheng smiled and said, "How can I have any private money? I only have pocket money given by my wife. Didn't I ask Comrade Zhan to help manage it?"
Zhan Aiping: "... Seeing your secret stash of money growing, I feel so sad."
Comrade Xiao Zhan kept his word and gave Gu Sheng some private money every month. After he became the head of the group, the amount of private money he received increased significantly every month. Normally, Gu Sheng did not use the private money and only used it for occasional social events, which also passed through Zhan Aiping's hands.
Zhan Aiping felt like she was saving up a fund, and unknowingly she had saved a large sum of money for Comrade Gu.
Zhan Aiping said, "Kill a chicken for the child and use your money."
A double entendre, killing the chicken (killing the fund).
Gu Sheng sighed: "Okay, then I'll spend the money, it's my party dues."
His pocket money is in name only.
"Your party dues smell good." Zhan Aiping smiled, but then she remembered something and stopped smiling: "You lied to me, how could you not have some private money? Where did you get the money to buy me shoes on your last business trip?"
Gu Sheng: “…”
"Old Gu, Old Gu, you cheated me of my allowance and hid my bonus."
Gu Sheng put his arm around his wife's shoulders and said, "Wife, a man should always have some."
"How else can I give you a surprise?"
"You're smart." Zhan Aiping didn't intend to kill all the chickens and lay the golden eggs. She just told him, "Hide it well, don't let your son and daughter find it."
"It's better to dig it out and publish it - haha, you didn't see Mrs. He's expression at that time. She must have searched out a lot of money." Comrade Xiaozhan also wanted to experience the feeling of suddenly getting rich.
Who doesn’t want unexpected wealth!
Gu Sheng: "... Comrade Xiao Zhan, you have saved enough money, right?"
They didn't buy many small items at home, and spent most of their money on food, which they didn't spend too much on. Zhan Aiping also managed a large hospital cafeteria, and they did collective purchasing, and had cooperation with the slaughterhouse, so the prices were much lower, and they could occasionally get pig offal for free.
Many families live paycheck to paycheck, but they can save most of the money.
Zhan Aiping glanced at him and said, "Save some for a rainy day."
Although Comrade Xiao Zhan is the director of a hospital, she has gained a lot of experience in running canteens recently. When the economy opens up in the future, she wants to contract a state-owned restaurant that is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Later, as the market economy gradually liberalized, many dance troupes, state-owned restaurants, state-owned factories and even hospitals began to go bankrupt due to poor management, and private contracting was encouraged at that time.
Zhan Aiping wanted to contract a small restaurant to sell special dishes or make some health-preserving medicinal food...
To be honest, Comrade Xiao Zhan thinks that if he and Comrade Gu open a restaurant, the future is bright. If Comrade Gu is invited to be the chef, they will make a lot of money...
*
Zhan Aiping went to the homes of the three children and returned all the money. After talking with their parents, the matter was completely settled.
Several children were howling like ghosts. They were not howling for anything else, they were just sad that the one who did their homework for them was gone.
That is to say, the price of ghostwriting summer homework is higher, and it is very cheap at other times. Some people secretly saved up some New Year's money, thinking that they don't have to do homework this semester - their dreams are shattered, and they still have to do their homework themselves.
“Uwaa ...
"I don't want to go to school and I don't want to do my homework!!!"
Listening to the cries of those who don't want to go to school, Zhan Aiping felt extremely ashamed. Actually, compulsory education has not been implemented yet, and children in rural areas who don't want to go to school can really not go to school, but... no matter how much they don't want to go to school, they still have to go to primary school to learn some literacy skills. They can't really be illiterate. Even if they join the army in the future, they still have to learn in the army, and they have to learn more. How can they get by without a junior high school education? To be promoted to an officer and attend a military academy, a certain level of learning ability is also required.
You don’t have to be the best, but you must learn!
Zhan Aiping returned home and sighed: "Children are indeed just children. They don't seem to be very smart."
Including her own Xiao Guobao, their behavior is obviously unsustainable, but they still invest in it.
Zhan Aiping originally thought that the matter was over, but who knew that a teacher named Jiang came to visit the family. Teacher Jiang was the second-grade math teacher and class teacher of the Zidi Primary School. After she had seen the summer homework written by Guo Baorou, she suggested that he change to second grade and become a student in her class.
