Chapter 173. Better and better
But really, there was no problem with Lin Qing He's teaching at all.
The community's junior high schooly didn't trust her as soon as she started. They had her do a trial. The principal was listening outside the door.
It wasn't just the principal, Chen Shan, who was the substitute, did the same.
Have to say, whether it was the principal or Chen Shan, both didn't find a slightest flaw.
Moreover, it seems that the quality of teaching was quite impeccable. Lin Qing He was able to hold the fort.
This was a class of newly advanced students.
At this time, the junior high school also had an entrance exam. All those who got admitted achieved academically acceptable grades.
Also, there were really that not many students in the entire junior high school.
The junior high school only consists of the first year and second year. Third-year didn't exist yet.
There were four classes of first year and four classes of second year.
These were all the children in the community who attended junior high school.
There were 19 production teams in the entire community, and one production team had almost 20 households.
How was this household be counted? When the old Zhou family hadn't separated yet, the entire old Zhou family would be counted as one family headed by Father Zhou.
The counting method was different, but still, it was a large population of people.
People at this time were like a birthing machine. In the whole community, there were numerous amount of kids, but only so much attended junior high school.
In the end, not much attention was given to education.
As a teacher, Lin Qing He would uphold her responsibilities with the best of her abilities.
The content of each lesson will be broken down and explained to them. If they didn’t understand, they can come and ask after the lesson. As for the other matters, like saying they must study, there was none.
At this time, the environment was still a bit strict.
In the past, teachers were criticized for being harsh.
Although Lin Qing He started from the bottom, she won't get criticized as the family member of a retired military force.
Still, Lin Qing He won't treat these students like a draconian.
After the lesson and handling all the questions that the students had come forward with after class, her task was completed.
Lin Qing He knew how to handle her speech.
Including her and the newcomer, Chen Shan, there were five teachers in the entire junior high school. Of course, this didn't include the principal.
The principal was also very busy. Sometimes he had to go to meetings and go to the city to listen to the progress statement. Usually, he didn't teach, but when the teachers get occupied, he would substitute.
Lin Qing He got along pretty well with her colleagues. It went without saying, she kept her distance from Chen Shan, the scumbag.
She constantly used the bicycle at home now. She rode it in the morning and rode it back at noon. Then she headed out in the afternoon and returned in the evening.
This was her approximate work schedule for the day. Basically, she can't stick to the stove.
She still took on the task of going back to cooking the dishes every day.
Mother Zhou helped out with the rest of the chores. Mother Zhou mostly stayed at home all day long. Only when it was time to breastfeed, she will carry little Su Xun over to her third daughter-in-law's place for breastfeeding.
Lin Qing He came back from work that day and started cooking. She mentioned, "I don't have to go to work tomorrow. I will go to the city to see if I can buy some peanut oil."
There was still a bottle of peanut oil in her space. She kept in mind to collect supplies from the black market.
No matter if it was eggs, meat, or oil, she will buy them and store them into her own space if she saw them.
Even though she privately sold pork, all of them were leftovers. There was very little good meat. Generally, she would reserve good meat for her own family.
Mother Zhou responded: "You're tired from work, it's a rare chance for you rest."
Lin Qing He replied, "It's still okay."
In fact, being able to have a career felt pretty good. Lin Qing He swiftly made a pot of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and then a big bone soup.
They were having rice today. Mother Zhou had already soaked them, so she can just simply steam it.
San Wa soon returned from outside. He turned into a dirty cat from playing. Trailing behind him was little Su Cheng.
Now, little Su Cheng can move around. He basically followed his brother San Wa all day long. And when sleeping at night, it was the same. He had to sleep with his brother San Wa.
"You two, hurry up and wash yourself." Lin Qing He's head ached at the sight of these two and sent them a glare as she ordered.
"Wash, wash." Little Su Cheng followed San Wa to get washed.
But how he could possibly wash himself clean. Lin Qing He washed them both together, and then said: "What did you play today?"
"We dug earthworms." San Wa answered.
"Earthworm." Little Su Cheng copied.
"Where did the earthworms go? Did you bring them home to feed the chickens?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Ah, the earthworms were given to Cai Cai." San Wa answered.
Cai Cai was a girl in the village. Her family was also quite decent. Children of this age always played together and usually didn't play separately until about seven years old.
Lin Qing He never thought that San Wa, a stinky boy who was only this big, knew how to treat the girls nicely.
It was no wonder that the heroine of the original book was attracted to him.
But in the end, he still can't escape the male side character's miserable fate.
He was only that big, so naturally, Lin Qing He wouldn't tell him off. She just said: "Next time, bring it back home and let the hen eat better. At home, only one egg gets laid each day."
"Okay." San Wa nodded when he heard this.
Su Cheng and Su Xun's household registration wasn't here, so they weren't counted. Their family had a total of seven people, including Father Zhou and Mother Zhou.
Although the policy was strict nowadays, it wasn't a lot for seven people to raise four chickens with the reliable Zhou Qing Bai here.
Speaking of the four hens, they were still very diligent in laying eggs. There were two or three eggs a day.
Sometimes all four chickens laid eggs together, so there can be four eggs a day.
Of course, this was also due to adequate food. When cooking pig food, these hens were never forgotten. They were different from other families' free-range style of raising hens. Her hens were really plump. One can be about four or five jins heavy.
However, despite having eggs laid every day, their consumption at home was large. From time to time, Lin Qing He still needed to bring some back from outside.
Soon Da Wa and Er Wa got out of school.
The primary school where the two brothers attended was located in a different direction to the community's junior high school. Since it was different ways, they go their own way.
When the two brothers came back, they immediately went to gather the pigweed. Now, this was the two brothers' task. They have to forage the pigweed every evening after school. When there's no school, they had to pick up cow dung or the likes.
Speaking of the situation in her family now, it was getting better and better.
Zhou Qing Bai obtained ten work points. The two pigs at home could be exchanged for a lot of work points. Raising pigs meant that there was fertilizer, which the can kept for their own field at home and don't need to exchange for it. If they can't use up the fertilizer, they can also choose to exchange it for work points.
Da Wa and Er Wa had also grown up. They don't earn much, but at least the two brothers can sometimes earn two work points altogether.
