Chapter 88 Investing in Building a School and Serving as Acting Principal

Even without Peng Shao's entrustment, Huo Yanchuan would still help take care of Professor Peng.

When Peng Shao left, he gave Wenrou an address so that she could write to him if she needed anything in the future.

Wenrou left her address, thinking that it might be helpful in case she needed it in the future.

After all, he's a future billionaire tycoon and a famous entrepreneur. With such great resources, why not make the most of them?

Peng Xiaowan had no intention of going back after arriving here.

There are no relatives left at home, but here I can keep Professor Peng company and help take care of him.

However, her job is a bit troublesome.

She used to be a teacher at a school. The school here is very small, and education is not valued much here. There are only a few students in the whole village, so there is no need for a teacher for the time being.

Wenrou actually noticed this problem when she first arrived here.

There are no schools in the military family compound, so the children in the compound have to travel a long way to get to school each time.

If a school could be established here, it would not only solve the problem of schooling for the children in the residential compound, but also provide a job for educated people in the nearby villages.

After returning home, Wenrou discussed the matter with Huo Yanchuan.

"The issue you mentioned has been considered by the military before, and preparations have already begun. However, the funding problem has not yet been resolved."

Huo Yanchuan could understand Wenrou's desire to help Peng Xiaowan, but this matter couldn't be rushed.

"The funding problem...that's easy, isn't Peng Shao a ready-made solution?"

With Peng Shao's capabilities, investing in a school is no small matter for him.

Upon hearing Wenrou mention Peng Shao again, Huo Yanchuan's expression changed slightly, and his tone carried a hint of jealousy.

"You seem to know him very well."

Wenrou was only thinking about running the school at the moment and didn't notice that something was wrong with Huo Yanchuan's expression.

Without thinking, she blurted out, "Of course, he has the ability."

Huo Yanchuan was unaware of Peng Shao's future influence in the business world. Hearing Wenrou's affirmation of him, he felt even more jealous.

Thinking of the address Peng Shao gave her, now she can finally use it, right?

Wenrou then wrote a letter to Peng Shao that very night, telling him about her desire to build a school there.

Although Huo Yanchuan really didn't want Wenrou to contact Peng Shao again, he knew that what she was doing was also a serious matter, so he had someone send the letter over the next day.

Wenrou waited several days before finally receiving Peng Shao's reply.

Peng Shao fully supports Wenrou's idea.

He also indicated that he could invest in building a school, but he didn't have the time at the moment, and that Wenrou would need to help take charge of the school construction.

As long as the funds are in place, gentleness is certainly not a problem.

She told Huo Yanchuan about Peng Shao's reply. Seeing how excited she was, Huo Yanchuan agreed, "I'll talk to the higher-ups about this tomorrow. If it really works out, it will be a good thing."

He was a little worried about Wenrou's health, as her pregnancy was progressing and he knew he needed to be more careful in the future.

"I'm fine, in great health. Besides, I'm just responsible for keeping an eye on things, I don't need to do anything, so don't worry."

Huo Yanchuan also knew that Wenrou had her own ideas, and that if he interfered too much, it would only backfire.

Seeing how happy she was, he didn't want to spoil the mood.

The next day, he went to Political Commissar Zhao and brought it up.

Upon hearing that someone was willing to invest in building a school for them, Political Commissar Zhao was naturally pleased and approved it on the spot.

The next day, Wenrou went to tell Peng Xiaowan the good news, and Peng Xiaowan was also very happy to hear it.

"Xiaorou, you're so thoughtful. If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of this solution at all."

Peng Xiaowan has limited contact with people in her daily life, and apart from the knowledge she learned in school, she doesn't understand these things at all. She only wants to be a good teacher.

She lacked a gentle, long-term vision and never considered building a school here.

No wonder even her older brother admires Wenrou; she is indeed outstanding in every aspect.

Sometimes, Peng Xiaowan envied Wenrou, who seemed to have inexhaustible energy every day and was always full of fighting spirit no matter what happened.

"Don't underestimate yourself. I'm just offering a suggestion. I haven't had much formal education myself, so I'll need your help to oversee things at school in the future."

She doesn't understand school education, so once the school is built, Peng Xiaowan will still have to be responsible for hiring teachers and such.

The Peng family is considered a scholarly family. Peng Xiaowan studied and went to school with Peng Shao from a young age. If it weren't for the family tragedy, she could have gone to university.

Therefore, Wenrou has complete faith in her abilities.

Peng Xiaowan was deeply moved to hear that Wenrou trusted her so much.

From childhood to adulthood, she was inferior to her older brother in everything. Her older brother was so outstanding that compared to him, she seemed much more ordinary.

However, she never complained.

She knew her older brother was destined for great things, while her wish was simply to be an ordinary teacher, educating and nurturing students, and living a peaceful and uneventful life.

But ever since she met Wenrou, she has been able to discover her own strengths, which seems to have helped her to gradually rediscover herself.

With the approval of the military leadership, news of the school's establishment quickly spread throughout the family compound.

"This is a good thing. Once it's built, the children won't have to travel so far to go to school."

"Of course! I heard that someone invested in building it for us. They're such a kind person."

"I heard that the new school will be recruiting teachers. When that happens, educated people in our compound can also apply to become teachers."

Shen Qingshuang had just returned when she heard about this.

She reached out and touched her stomach; in the past, she definitely wouldn't have even looked at it.

But now, after she returned home this time, something happened at home. Her parents were reported to the authorities, and all of their property was confiscated.

Not only that, she also found out she was pregnant at this time.

Without her parents' support, Shen Qingshuang is no longer the aloof young lady she used to be.

No one in the compound knew about this yet. She glanced at the gossiping people and turned to go home.

She knew that Zhou Dayong was the only person she could rely on now, so she could no longer be as willful as before and make trouble for him.

However, to her relief, Zhou Dayong had made a small contribution this time and had now been promoted back to the position of battalion commander.

Wenrou had just learned that Zhou Dayong had been promoted to battalion commander. Thinking back to her previous life, after Huo Yanchuan and the others sacrificed their lives, Zhou Dayong directly took his place and became the regimental commander.

Therefore, even though she saved Huo Yanchuan this time and changed the course of everyone's fate, Zhou Dayong's storyline still followed the trajectory of her previous life.

Zhou Dayong didn't expect Huo Yanchuan to be so lucky. None of them received the news that the two spies had hidden explosives in advance. By the time they received the news, it was already too late.

When he and his men rushed over, they found it was too late.

He had thought Huo Yanchuan would die in the explosion, but to his surprise, he was unharmed and even found the location of the explosives, destroyed them, and saved everyone's lives.

He originally thought Huo Yanchuan was lucky, but only today did he learn that it was Wenrou who risked her life to save Huo Yanchuan.

Zhou Dayong was also puzzled as to how Wenrou knew the location of the explosives.

Moreover, they even thought of using water to flood the area, which saved Huo Yanchuan and everyone else.

He used to think that Wenrou was just an ordinary country woman, but now he realizes that Wenrou is no longer the Wenrou who always chased after him.

Since she arrived here, she first helped Huo Yanchuan capture two spies, then she learned to drive trucks and helped the army solve the water shortage problem, and it is even said that she can repair trucks.

Now, it's even possible to predict the location of explosives in advance?

And last time, he clearly saw Wen Jiguang fall down the mountain with his own eyes, but Huo Yanchuan seemed to have a premonition of what was going to happen and reacted quickly to save him.

With Wenrou around, everything Huo Yanchuan did went so smoothly, how could he not be jealous and suspicious?

Although it's unclear why Wenrou could foresee what was going to happen, Zhou Dashi will definitely not give up.

He could only feel at ease when Wenrou was back by his side.

Only in this way will his future be bright.

Zhou Dayong was so preoccupied with thoughts of tenderness that he got punched several times during training today.

When he returned home to his family compound, he had several more injuries on his face.

Upon seeing this, Shen Qingshuang hurriedly stepped forward.

"Dayong, what happened to you? Who hit you on the face?"

Zhou Dayong was in a bad mood and didn't care about Shen Qingshuang, so he shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's normal to get injured during training."

Seeing that Zhou Dayong was in a bad mood, Shen Qingshuang realized that he was being perfunctory towards her. Although she was angry, she didn't dare to vent her anger on him as usual.

"I haven't eaten yet, can you make me something to eat?" Shen Qingshuang said to Zhou Dayong in a kind and gentle voice.

She can't cook herself; Zhou Dayong used to cook for her.

Now that she's pregnant, of course she won't cook for herself anymore.

"Make yourself something to eat, I'm tired." Zhou Dayong said this and went into the house, completely ignoring Shen Qingshuang, who was still pregnant.

He used to be so tolerant of Shen Qingshuang because of the Shen family behind her.

In the end, the Shen family not only failed to help him, but this incident almost implicated him as well.

If it weren't for the fact that Shen Qingshuang was carrying his child, he wouldn't even want to bring her back.

Since their marriage, not only the Shen family, but even Shen Qingshuang looked down on him in every way. Zhou Dayong had long been fed up with this.

"Zhou Dayong, are you even human? I'm pregnant with your child, and this is how you treat me?" Shen Qingshuang was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes, not expecting Zhou Dayong to be so cold to her.

"If it weren't for my family, would your parents have gotten out so quickly? How could you treat me like this?"

Shen Qingshuang never expected Zhou Dayong to change his attitude so quickly.

"Alright, stop arguing, I'll go make it for you, okay?" Zhou Dayong's face was very ugly. After he finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the kitchen.

The fact that his parents were able to get out of the police station so quickly last time was indeed thanks to the help of Shen Qingshuang's family.

He had met Shen Qingshuang's parents before, and he knew that they looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts, thinking that he was climbing the social ladder, so every word they said was demeaning to him.

He tolerated all of this, because in other people's eyes, he was truly blessed to be able to marry a young lady like Shen Qingshuang.

At that time, he had no ability or way to refute, and could only endure the Shen family's belittling and judgment of him and his family.

Not long after that incident, the Shen family was reported.

Upon learning of this, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief and catharsis.

He no longer has to tolerate Shen Qingshuang like before, but considering that she is pregnant with his child, he doesn't want to argue with her anymore.

Soon, Zhou Dayong went into the kitchen, made her a bowl of clear soup noodles, and brought it out, placing it on the table.

"You...you're just going to feed me this?" Shen Qingshuang stared at the noodles in front of her, which had no oil or grease at all, and looked at Zhou Dayong in disbelief.

"Shen Qingshuang, wake up! Do you still think you're a pampered young lady like before? This is all we have at home right now. If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it."

As Zhou Dayong spoke, his face turned cold, he prepared to take the food away, but Shen Qingshuang quickly stopped him.

Without this bowl of noodles, she would have to go to bed hungry.

Zhou Dayong ignored her and went back to his room to sleep. He also took off his clothes and threw them to Shen Qingshuang, asking her to wash them for him.

After finishing her meal, Shen Qingshuang had no choice but to take the dirty clothes to wash for him.

In the past, Zhou Dayong would always coax her and wash her clothes every day.

Since the Shen family's incident, Zhou Dayong and his family's true colors have been exposed.

Although she felt wronged, Zhou Dayong was all she had left, so she had to endure it.

If Zhou Dayong doesn't want her, she doesn't know where she and her child should go.

Wenrou had also heard about Shen Qingshuang's family situation, but it didn't concern her much, so she didn't pay much attention to it.

However, she vaguely remembered that the Shen family did not seem to fall so quickly in her previous life. Could there be other reasons behind this?

She's been busy building the school these past few days, and the matter between Shen Qingshuang and Zhou Dayong has nothing to do with her, so she quickly forgot about it.

The school construction project was already halfway completed, but it was forced to stop due to funding issues.

With Peng Shao's investment, the school is being built very quickly.

It took just over a month to complete.

Now we're just waiting for the renovations to be finished so the children can start attending the new school after the New Year.

The school is almost ready, and Wenrou will now be busy with student recruitment.

The announcement has already been posted, and many people have already signed up.

She is now six months pregnant, and because of the twins, her belly is quite large, and her movements have become slow.

So she handed over the school's affairs to others, and no one in the family compound knew that she was acting as the principal.
