Chapter 2342: District Chief Gu’s Invitation

"Teacher Shao, what are you doing?" Xie's mother Liang Haihong was very polite.

After several refusals, he finally accepted the gifts and said he could help with the lessons.

With Shao Xingchi officially joining the class, things became a bit difficult, after all, there were only five children in the orphanage.

So after finishing work in the store that night, Zhou Yanlin returned home exhausted. Without even having time to wash up, he pulled his son to the bedroom for a conversation between men.

His expression was a little complicated: "Haikuo, are you...actually a little weird recently because of what happened between your mother and me?"

"No, Dad~" Zhou Haikuo had earphones in his ears and was a little confused at the moment.

"What's the conflict with your friends?"

"No!"

The more Zhou Haikuo talked, the more confused he became.

"Then how do you hope to study with them? You've grown up together, so why didn't they ask you to go with them?" Zhou Yanlin didn't have the energy to keep the secret. After all, it was tiring to work in the restaurant all day.

When Zhou Haikuo heard this, he felt helpless and took off his headphones and smiled.

He sighed helplessly: "Dad, Wanghe wanted to help Huazi with his homework before, but who knew Xingchi would go there too!"

"I guess it's the same if you drive one sheep or two sheep. As for your son's academic performance, it's still among the best in the class. There's no big deal whether he goes or not!"

"That won't do. If you don't make progress in learning, you will regress. How can you not participate in such a good opportunity?"

"Well, go talk to your mother later and ask her to go to the supermarket to buy some gifts or something. If you have time tomorrow morning, go to Xie's house!" Zhou Yanlin and his wife had already separated at this time, and he would be embarrassed to see her if they were getting a divorce.

"Dad, why don't you go by yourself?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

Zhou Haikuo hesitated for a moment, but finally raised his head and said, "Dad, I just happen to have something to talk to you about!"

"What's the matter?" It was the first time Zhou Yanlin saw his son's expression so serious, and he thought something big had happened.

"My mother..."

After Zhou Haikuo told his father everything that Xie Wanghe had thought of some time ago.

This immediately silenced Zhou Yanlin.

"Son, you've grown up!" he said, patting his shoulder.

"Oh~" He turned his head away and sighed, as if he didn't want his son to see his weakness.

"But how can it be so simple?"

"I can't just let you go. Besides, your grandfather is so old, it's impossible for him to leave you alone at home~"

"Dad, how old am I? I can take care of grandpa at 18. Besides, Uncle Zhang and his family are here in this store. You can choose which is more important, career or my mom!"

After Zhou Haikuo said this, he got up and left the bedroom...

Originally, it was an after-school study class prepared for Dahuazi alone, but with the joining of Shao Xingchi and Zhou Haikuo, it has grown stronger and stronger.

They used to study in Xia Fenghua's room, but it became a little inconvenient with so many people, so the neighbors in the compound contributed money to rent a small house specifically for the five of them to study.

"Wanghe, this house is nice, right next to your Uncle Zhou's restaurant!" Shao Bingyi is somewhat vain.

So Xie Wanghe gave a thumbs up.

"Uncle, you are definitely this!"

“This house is perfect for studying. There’s a stationery store downstairs so it’s not too noisy. It’s very quiet on the second floor, and you can see the canal not far away when you open the window. The air is very good and the location is convenient!”

"As long as you are satisfied, I'm leaving that brat Xingchi to you. If he doesn't obey me, you'll have to beat him up!" As he said this, Shao Bingyi glared at his son.

Shao Xingchi at the back was slightly dissatisfied, and he quietly stepped back before speaking: "Dad, look at what you said, am I that disappointing?"

"Hey, you and that bastard!" Shao Bingyi rushed over to hit him. After all, the other children were making progress, but his was the only one who stood still. Zhou Yanlin, who was standing by, quickly grabbed him.

"Wanghe, you don't have to go home for dinner anymore. I'll have the waiter bring it to you in the evening. Dinner and midnight snack are all included!"

"Then I'll take care of the hygiene!" Mother Xia naturally couldn't just sit there and watch.

Parents all contribute money and effort to ensure an all-round learning environment.

Then Chen Rui's mother, Gu Alian, who is the district head, heard about this from somewhere. She hoped that her son could be admitted to the National People's Congress and then follow in his footsteps and work within the system.

As Xie Wanghe was the first one in the district to be admitted, she, as the district head, had naturally heard of him. She also knew that her son had a good relationship with him, and she had even privately asked the two of them to interact more often.

So I also wanted to let my son join in, but I was somewhat dissatisfied that there were two poor students in this study class.

So he postponed two meetings that day and asked his son to bring Xie Wanghe home for dinner in the name of a friend.

"Hello, Aunt Gu!" Xie Wanghe couldn't refuse the invitation of the district chief, so he went to her house and handed over the gift politely.

Gu A-Lian's outfit was standard, a women's business suit with a white shirt, neat short hair and light makeup. Her brows revealed a sharp look, giving people the feeling that she would scold if there was any slight disagreement.

But at this time, he forced a smile on his face.

"Wanghe is here, come in quickly, what do you bring with you?" When Gu A Lian saw the gift in Xie Wanghe's hand, her expression changed slightly.

Xie Wanghe noticed it, and immediately added: "Auntie, this is the fungus my grandma sent from her hometown. My mom asked me to bring it over for you and Uncle Chen to taste~"

"Ah...your mother took so much trouble!"

Gu A Lian was very careful about her reputation. Even after hearing what Xie Wanghe said, she still secretly squeezed the box, fearing that there were some valuables hidden inside.

Only after confirming that it was wood ear mushroom did the gentle smile on his face return.

"Chen Rui, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and find slippers for your classmate!"

"Chen Bo, is your meal ready?"

District Chief Gu unknowingly developed his occupational disease and began to give orders out of habit.

"Okay, okay, why are you rushing me?" Chen Bo put the dishes on the table, took off his apron and greeted with a smile.

"Wanghe, uncle doesn't know what you like to eat, so I just made some home-cooked dishes!"

Behind every successful man, there is a wife who silently contributes, and vice versa for every successful woman.

If a couple is so busy that they are always busy, then the marriage is probably in name only, so in the Chen family, Chen Bo is undoubtedly the one who pays.

There were seven or eight dishes on the table, both meat and vegetarian, which looked delicious. He worked in the cultural center and was usually quite free, so he asked his leader for half a day off to go home.

Xie Wanghe took a seat.

"Come on, try the food uncle cooked!" Chen Bo handed over the chopsticks with a smile.

"Thank you uncle!"

Just when everything was going well, Gu A Lian didn't know whether she was used to being in a high position or she treated Xie Wanghe like a child.

Directly in a commanding tone.

"Wanghe, you are a good kid. Our Chen Rui should learn more from you!"

Hearing this tone, Xie Wanghe, who had just taken a bite of food and hadn't swallowed it yet, immediately guessed that there would be a "but" behind it.

So he put down his chopsticks silently.

Sure enough, the next second District Chief Gu blurted out "but".
