The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Gu Jiaojiao and Leng Yuan arrived at the meeting spot and saw Chen Ruoyu. The group then went to the commune middle school together.

Gu Jiaojiao introduced Chen Ruoyu to the principal.

Chen Ruoyu thought she would have to take a test or something and was a bit nervous. To her surprise, the principal merely glanced at her and nodded. ”Not bad. You’ll be in charge of the first-years. Just coordinate the handover with Teacher Gu.”

With that, the principal left.

Chen Ruoyu was a bit stunned. ”That’s it?”

Gu Jiaojiao nodded with an amused smile. ”I’ll take you to the office to meet the other teachers.”

Chen Ruoyu nodded, then asked carefully, ”Jiaojiao, does this mean I’ve really got the job?”

Gu Jiaojiao nodded. ”Yes.”

Chen Ruoyu recalled her first attempt to compete for the position, when so many people had taken the exam together. This time, she had actually gotten a teaching job so easily.

Moreover, the principal had been very stern with the other teachers just now, but when he spoke to Gu Jiaojiao, he became amiable and kind. Anyone who didn’t know better would have thought Gu Jiaojiao was his relative!

But Chen Ruoyu knew that wasn’t the case. If it were true, Gu Jiaojiao wouldn’t have had to work so hard to pass the exam herself.

The teachers were all in the office. Gu Jiaojiao introduced her to everyone, and no one seemed the least bit surprised.

An Dongyang had left, so of course someone had to take his place.

Chen Ruoyu was still a little nervous, but thankfully, Gu Jiaojiao was familiar with the procedures. She showed her around, and soon Chen Ruoyu got the hang of it.

On the first day, Chen Ruoyu taught the class while Gu Jiaojiao supervised from the side.

With Chen Ruoyu now teaching the first-year students, who were the focus of the desk and chair project, Gu Jiaojiao took over the second and third-year classes, replacing the male teacher who had been in charge.

Thanks to their recent efforts, all the desks and chairs for one of the first-year classes had been replaced with new ones. Seeing the students’ renewed vigor, the principal’s smile grew even brighter.

After a day of adjusting, Chen Ruoyu felt good.

This teaching job was much easier than working in the fields.

Gu Jiaojiao reminded her to go and inform the production team captain.

Otherwise, if she just stopped showing up for work without a reason, people would start to gossip.

Chen Ruoyu thanked her. As soon as she got back to the village, she ran to the team captain’s house to tell him the news. When the captain learned that Gu Jiaojiao had helped her get the job, and successfully at that, his estimation of Gu Jiaojiao rose even higher.

Even the team captain’s wife was utterly shocked.

”That wife Leng Yuan married is really something. She becomes a teacher herself, and then immediately gets someone else a teaching job too.”

This was a real, solid job.

And a great job like being a teacher, at that.

If you could sell a position like that, it would go for over two hundred.

And she just gave it to Chen Ruoyu like that.

That was incredibly bold.

After a moment of surprise, Chen Beiguo found it to be perfectly normal.

”I told you long ago, that couple, Leng Yuan and Gu Zhiqing, are no ordinary people. It’s just the current political climate holding them back. Just you wait! In the future, they’ll be completely out of our league.”

Before, if Chen Beiguo had said something like that, she would have argued with him.

Now, she had no rebuttal.

Leng Yuan had helped them get that precious pig, and he had also secured spots for study.

Gu Jiaojiao said she would get someone a job, and she did—a proper, official one at that.

That’s something money can’t buy.

The team captain’s wife made up her mind to be nicer to Gu Jiaojiao from now on. Turning around, she saw her own son playing with pebbles instead of doing his homework. She immediately marched over and smacked him on the back of the head.

”Hurry up and do your homework! If you do poorly on the next exam, I won’t stop your father from giving you a beating.”
