After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Is there a problem with the funding from Teacher Zhang in Chapter 1882?

When the carpenter heard that the principal wanted to order desks and benches, he frowned unhappily: "It's a small business, we can't afford to keep owing money."

"I'll pay you two thousand yuan first!" The principal slapped the two thousand yuan he had counted out halfway down the road in front of the carpenter. "The rest, we'll settle the bill when it's finished."

The carpenter's eyes lit up when he saw the money, and he immediately put it in his pocket, but he warned, "If you spend all the students' tuition fees, and then Teacher Lianjiang can't get his salary, and his wife comes to the school to make trouble for you, don't come looking for me."

“It’s none of your business, I won’t come looking for you.” The principal stood up. “I see you have some new desks and benches that have already been made in your yard. Help me take them back to school first, and finish the rest as soon as possible. This time I won’t owe you a single penny.”

The carpenter frowned. Why did the principal seem so arrogant this time? Anyway, as long as he didn't owe any money, he didn't care.

The desks and benches were loaded onto the cart, which was very heavy. The carpenter called his wife to help pull it, so that he could take his son, Shi Hu, to school together.

Although Shi Hu was only 12 years old, he was tall and strong, partly due to genetics, as both the carpenter and his wife were very tall.

Remembering that Shi Hu had offended the new teacher yesterday, the carpenter said to the principal with concern, "I don't trust the new teacher to teach the children. I remember the new teacher who came two years ago was unhappy about teaching in our poor mountain village, and he took it all out on the children, always beating and kicking them. You have to keep a close eye on them and not let outsiders bully the children in our village."

"Don't worry, the two new teachers who came this time are very good and won't bully the children." The principal smiled and didn't take the carpenter's words to heart at all.

But the carpenter and his wife were still worried; their only precious son was like this.

The carpenter helped move the new desks and benches into the classroom.

The carpenter's wife personally escorted her son, Shi Hu, into the fifth-grade classroom. Not seeing Zhang Ran, she looked around and saw Zhang Ran helping to move the new desks and benches into the first-grade classroom. The old ones were being moved directly to the earthen stove for future use as fuel.

This was the first time Xinghua had eaten breakfast in her life. Since she had never eaten breakfast before, she eagerly helped out. Unable to move the desks, she moved the old, discarded stools. She carried her new schoolbag slung across her shoulder, reluctant to put it down, afraid of losing it.

"Why is this little beggar coming to school?" The carpenter's wife walked over quickly and mocked loudly.

Zhang Ran looked at her, her eyes were smiling, but there was no warmth in them.

The carpenter's wife shivered, a chill running down her spine. She quickly walked to the carpenter's side and questioned the principal, "Why is she coming to school? Can she afford the tuition?"

The carpenter had been busy moving things and only noticed Xinghua now. He looked at the principal questioningly and echoed, "Yes, how did she go to school without money?"

"Is there a problem with the loan sponsored by Teacher Zhang?" The principal didn't want to mention the women's financial aid loan to the carpenter couple. If they knew that girls could apply for financial aid loans for free while their son Huzi had to pay tuition, they would probably cause a huge uproar.

The carpenter and his wife glanced at Zhang Ran subconsciously, but when they met her gaze, they both looked away and said nothing more.

The couple were both bullies who preyed on the weak and feared the strong. They could clearly see that Teacher Zhang was not someone to be trifled with, so they naturally dared not provoke him. They just kept thinking to themselves: "That little beggar is so lucky. He can study for free for another six months."

A college student once took pity on Xinghua and sponsored her to study for half a year.

Later, when the college students finished their volunteer teaching assignments and returned to the city, Xinghua had no choice but to drop out of school and go home.

"Hurry up and go home to make the desks and benches the school needs," the principal said ruthlessly, shooing the carpenter couple away. "The children are about to start class."
