Chapter 395

"Ziqi and Xiao Ling are both professional singers; having them lead a few music classes should be no problem, right?"

Exactly! The other few people's eyes lit up.

Why didn't I think of that?

Teacher Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said.

"In principle, there's no problem, but if you teach the children to sing, don't teach those pop songs about love and romance."

Su Meng agreed at once and continued asking.

"You said these students come from several nearby villages, so there must be some boarding students, right?"

Teacher Yuanyuan looked at him, her eyes clearly showing some surprise.

"Mr. Su is correct; some children live too far away, and it takes several hours to go back home once."

"So they board at school and only go home on weekends."

"Sometimes when the weather is bad, quite a few students also stay at school."

Su Meng nodded, glanced at them, and said.

"Da Mimi, Tianxian'er, Xiao Yueyue, you three will just guest as life teachers."

"Help cook meals, take care of the students, and so on."

What? The three of them were all stunned.

Life teacher... is that a teacher?

However, regarding Su Meng's arrangement, they subconsciously did not object.

Teacher Yuanyuan looked at Su Meng and asked with confusion.

"Teacher Su, then what about you? What do you plan to do?"

Su Meng smiled slightly and said calmly.

"Didn't you say there's no professional art teacher? Then I'll just guest as one."

What?

Both on-site and in the live broadcast room, countless people were stunned.

You're going to be an art teacher? Can you even paint?

Su Meng, however, looked completely confident.

Are you kidding? I'm a man who possesses god-level traditional Chinese painting skills!

Isn't it just an elementary school art class?

Although it's not quite my specialty, it's more than enough!

In the live broadcast room, countless netizens were already stunned.

"What's going on? Su Meng can actually paint? Is that real or fake?"

"After all, they're just elementary school students; just drawing casually should be fine, right?"

"Hahaha, Boss Yang and Liu Tianxian are actually going to be life teachers, taking care of a bunch of little rascals? That's hilarious."

"The production team really went to great lengths; they even found such a impoverished place?"

"Su Meng's status is getting higher and higher, and the places for recording shows are getting more and more remote."

"The conditions at this elementary school are so harsh; I feel sorry for the few big stars for three minutes."

"Instead of feeling sorry for the big stars, you might as well feel sorry for those children."

"Exactly, and looking at these conditions, the teachers are working very hard too, having to teach classes and take care of these children."

"What about the two volunteer teachers? That's great, truly worthy of respect."

"Ding ling ling..."

The dismissal bell suddenly rang.

An old man with gray hair, clutching a book, rushed out of the classroom.

He shoved the book into Yuanyuan's hands and said urgently.

"Xiao Yuan, the next period is third-grade math; you substitute for me. I'm going to Xiaoping Village right now."

Teacher Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment and immediately asked.

"Liu Laoshi, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Liu Laoshi said with a solemn and heavy expression.

"When I was teaching second grade just now, Wang Dashan didn't come to class."

"A student from his village said his grandmother doesn't want him to go to school anymore; I'm going to see what's going on."

What? Teacher Yuanyuan was also startled.

"Liu Laoshi, please continue teaching; I'll make the trip."

"The road to Xiaoping Village is hard to travel; your legs aren't good, but I'm young and can walk fast."

Liu Laoshi thought for a moment and finally nodded, carefully instructing.

"Then you'll have to work hard; be safe on the road."

"Okay!" Teacher Yuanyuan responded, turned around, and was about to walk out.

Seeing this, Su Meng quickly said.

"Liu Laoshi, Teacher Yuanyuan, how about I go along as well?"

"The mountain roads are hard to walk; having another person means we can look out for each other."

Only then did Liu Laoshi notice the large group of people nearby, but seeing the cameras, he suddenly understood.

"Oh, oh, oh, you're here to record a program, right?"

"In that case, I'll trouble you."

Su Meng nodded, signaled a cameraman to follow, and merely tossed out a sentence in passing.

"Xiao Ling, you supervise them for me. Whoever doesn't work properly won't get to eat!"

Teacher Yuan Yuan seemed very familiar with the path and, having often walked mountain trails, moved quickly.

Su Meng's physical constitution was top-tier; keeping up was effortless.

Only the cameraman suffered terribly; the camera shook violently, drawing endless complaints in the live stream.

As Su Meng walked, he still had the mood to chat.

"Teacher Yuan Yuan, are dropouts common in this situation?"

Yuan Yuan was quite patient with him.

"This used to happen often, but now it rarely does."

"Most of the village are left-behind children; their parents work outside and understand the importance of schooling."

"Moreover, impoverished mountain areas now have subsidies; tuition and textbook fees are waived, and there is a lunch subsidy at noon."

"Some students in difficulty can also apply for living allowances."

"However, Wang Dashan's family situation is somewhat special."

"His parents passed away early; only his grandmother remains at home, and her health is not very good."

"We teachers do try to help a bit, but..."

She shook her head and did not continue.

Su Meng nodded, did not pursue it, and instead changed the subject.

"Teacher Yuan Yuan, are you here to teach in a remote area?"

Yuan Yuan nodded and said,

"I just graduated from normal university and am here to teach for a year."

"Teacher Yuan Yuan is truly admirable," Su Meng said sincerely.

He himself might not be able to do these things, but he held great respect for people with such noble character.

Teacher Yuan Yuan shook her head, her expression very calm.

"What is there about me that is admirable?"

"People like Liu Laoshi are truly worthy of respect."

"He has been rooted in this mountain hollow for decades; one could say he devoted his entire life's energy to it."

"Especially in the early years when conditions were harsh, he used his meager salary to help countless children."
