Chapter 13 Goodbye Teacher Lu
After entering the community, he parked the car and asked Lu's father to sit in the wheelchair again, and then Lu Xin carried all the luggage upstairs.

After arriving at the house, Mama Lu went around and soon discovered the problem.

She told Dad Lu: "Look, we're here right, this kid doesn't cook here at all, and the kitchen doesn't even have a pot."

"I haven't lived for a long time, Dad, Mom, you should live in this house."

Lu Xin explained casually, moved the two people's things into the big bedroom, and after all, they still couldn't sit down safely.

Looking at Father Lu who was fiddling with the TV remote control, and Mother Lu who was making the bed, he said, "I'm going out to do some errands, and I'll buy some pots and pans when I come back."

"Hey, what will you buy? I'll go down and buy it later."

Before Mama Lu finished speaking, Lu Xin had already left the room.

He quickly returned to the street, and there was no one beside the trash can just now.

Lu Xin walked along the street in one direction, taking a close look at every trash can he passed.

He's not a saint, but as a teacher at this moment, he can't just watch the students pick up waste after school and ignore them.

Besides, that's just a nine-year-old girl in the third grade.

Judging from the bag in Zhang Jiaqi's hand, she has obviously been doing this for some time.

Finally, at the entrance of a dilapidated alley, Lu Xin found her again.

He followed and found that Zhang Jiaqi walked into a door with a bag on her back, which was a waste station.

Lu Xin walked to the door, but hesitated for a moment. He didn't go in, but retreated and hid aside.

After waiting for about ten minutes, that small figure came out, the bag was empty, obviously those empty bottles had been sold by her.

"Goodbye, Grandpa Ge, I'm going home."

Zhang Jiaqi turned her head and waved to the courtyard, then turned her head and left with a smile, and quickly turned into another alley not far from the scrap yard.

The sky was getting dark, and she didn't find Lu Xin not far away.

Lu Xin didn't follow him any more. He knew that this area was a shanty town with poor environment and conditions. Obviously Zhang Jiaqi's home was here.

The next day, Lu Xin went to school.

Father Lu's foot injury was much milder than he expected, and the doctor said that he didn't even need to take anti-inflammatory drugs.

Coupled with Lu's mother taking care of him, he went to work with peace of mind.

When he returned to the office after finishing his vacation at school, he found that he was the only one besides a physical education teacher.

This office is actually the office of art and physical education teachers. Normally, the three music teachers, Mr. Chen, Mr. Zhao, and Zhang Ruoxi, should be there.

Lu Xin turned to the physical education teacher next to him, "Mr. Wang, do you know where the three teachers have gone?"

The teacher's surname is Wang, although he looks big and thick, he is very enthusiastic.

"Where can I go, I must have gone to find students to practice singing."

Teacher Wang glanced at him while wiping the basketball, "Aren't you fighting for some excellent teachers? I think they are all very interested, so you don't take it seriously."

Lu Xin smiled. Originally, he also felt that the three of them wanted to fight, especially Zhang Ruoxi, who obviously had no chance, and wanted to fight head-on.

But now, he felt that he might be wrong.

He took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Ruoxi, and it turned out that he was in the music classroom.

When Lu Xin rushed over, he heard bursts of piano sound coming from inside. The melody sounded familiar, and it seemed to be the score he helped pick up last time.

The nursery rhyme "Embracing Difficulties".

However, the person playing the piano sounds like he should have a good foundation, but he is a little anxious and messy, obviously he hasn't fully mastered the piece yet.

Zhang Ruoxi's piano level should not be so good, it's just a nursery rhyme, it's not a difficult piano piece, and it's still according to the score, so it shouldn't be difficult for her to play it.

Therefore, it should not be Zhang Ruoxi who plays the piano.

Gently opened the door, and sure enough, Lu Xin saw Zhang Jiaqi sitting in front of the piano, while Zhang Ruoxi was standing aside to guide.

It seems that this song should be played and sung by Zhang Jiaqi herself, not by Zhang Ruoxi who helps to play the piano.

Lu Xin didn't make a sound, just watched quietly.

I saw the girl's slender fingers changing from side to side on the keys. Although she was not familiar with the music, her basic skills were pretty good.

At least I am not a beginner, I have practiced for several years.

A nine-year-old girl, whose family conditions seem to be a bit difficult, has practiced piano for several years, which makes Lu Xin a little puzzled.

"Well, I'm still not familiar with it. Let's do it this morning. Xiaoqi, you go to class first, and come here to practice in the evening."

At this time, the sound of the piano stopped and the melody had been played. Zhang Ruoxi patted Zhang Jiaqi on the shoulder and said.

"Okay Teacher Zhang."

Zhang Jiaqi stood up from the front of the piano, turned around and saw Lu Xin.

"Goodbye, Teacher Zhang!"

She waved at Zhang Ruoxi, but when she walked to Lu Xin's side, she bowed.

Said: "Goodbye, Teacher Lu!"

Then just left.

Lu Xin froze for a moment, and waited for her to walk away before entering the classroom.

"Miss Lu, I'm sorry."

Zhang Ruoxi also saw Lu Xin, she greeted her, and then apologized.

Lu Xin asked, "What's wrong?"

"Qu Tingting from Class 1 has been sick recently and asked for leave. I haven't spared time to help you find other candidates. So I think..."

"Let's not talk about that."

Lu Xin interrupted her with a wave of his hand, "Is the situation at Zhang Jiaqi's house a little... not so good?"

Today's children are spoiled and spoiled. If it weren't for the bad family, how could a nine-year-old child be allowed to pick up waste.

The conditions in the shantytowns were already very poor.

Zhang Ruoxi was stunned, and looked at him strangely, "How do you know?"

"really."

Lu Xin nodded, "So, you let her participate in the competition because you want to get a ranking and a prize?"

He suddenly felt a lot lighter in his heart. He had been in Xingfu Road Elementary School for more than half a month, and he was only familiar with Zhang Ruoxi.

I also appreciate her tranquility, kindness, and aloofness.

Zhang Ruoxi tried her best to fight for the "Primary School Students Singing Competition" this time. Although this is not a shortcoming, and even being aggressive is an advantage, her performance did not match the image in her heart.

The two are just ordinary colleagues. Lu Xin can't be said to be disappointed, but there are inevitably some gaps.

Now it seems that Zhang Ruoxi should know the situation of Zhang Jiaqi's family, so she wants to help her.

"Yes."

Zhang Ruoxi said, "However, the situation in her family is a bit special, and I discovered it by accident."

Lu Xin asked, "What's going on?"

Seeing that Zhang Ruoxi hesitated, he didn't seem to want to say much, so he said again: "Are you sure about this singing competition?"

"No."

Zhang Ruoxi shook her head, not to mention going to the city, even if it was a competition in school, she didn't know if she could pass.

"Then tell me, I can help you."
