Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

Ye Wentao glanced at the director of the education bureau, ignoring his pleading look, and thought to himself: Good luck to him!

"Secretary, it's like this: the letters that come to your office are all submitted by various cities and counties. They undergo a first review by the Provincial Party Committee Office and a second review by our office before I hand them over to you. As long as there are no problems, I will give you the same number of letters that are submitted."

"The same procedure applies to Governor Zhao and other leaders."

This "no problem" refers to whether there are any potential dangers in the paper, ink, etc., or even some infectious diseases.

"That won't do."

Chu Shijun shook his head.

"You can't see the real thing."

He understands what some people think: they only report good news and not bad news, suppressing all the bad information and only reporting positive things, which may even be written by someone else.

He has seen a lot of things recently, but there are very few problems that need to be solved, which is one of the reasons why he came to the school in person today.

"This matter must be implemented thoroughly, with comprehensive coverage and routine spot checks and reporting. We are not afraid to raise questions; we are afraid that there will be problems that we are unaware of."

Chu Shijun said in a deep voice, looking at the director of the Education Bureau, "I know your concerns, that you're afraid some students' and teachers' writings will influence you. But that's exactly what we need to address. We've raised the issue, and we've solved it. Small things can escalate into big problems, and that's when they'll truly affect you. Don't you understand this simple principle?"

"Secretary Chu, esteemed leaders, I deeply regret my actions; my understanding was inadequate."

The education bureau chief lowered his head.

"Please rest assured, once we go down there, we will definitely implement the directives strictly, thoroughly investigate and correct the problems, and earnestly resolve the difficulties raised by students and teachers, striving to improve the overall quality of education in the province."

"Alright, criticizing you isn't the point. The key is to change and solve the problem. Comrade Jiageng, after you go back, you should issue a document about this. I need to see results."

Chu Shijun waved his hand and turned to leave.

"Yes, Secretary Chu, I will communicate with Vice Governor Li and other comrades in charge of education as soon as I get back."

Li Jiageng nodded and wrote it down in his notebook.

Afterwards, the group continued their tour of the campus.

During his inspection of the student canteen and dormitories, Chu Shijun carefully examined the food reserves, the dining environment, and the living conditions in the dormitories, and asked the accompanying school leaders and students questions on the spot.

Chu Shijun pointed out that we must always prioritize children's food safety, living comfort, and physical and mental health, with a focus on caring for children in difficult circumstances and left-behind children, and implement various policies that benefit the people so that every child can study with peace of mind, live comfortably, and grow up warmly at school.

During a conversation with representatives of frontline teachers and staff, Chu Shijun said that grassroots teaching tasks are heavy and the work is arduous. He thanked them for taking root in the campus, silently persevering, and wholeheartedly protecting the growth of every child. He said they are the most lovable educators.

Chu Shijun emphasized that the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have always attached great importance to education and cared for teachers. They will continue to improve policies supporting grassroots teachers, implement preferential treatment and benefits related to professional titles, and address any concerns that may prevent teachers from focusing on teaching and nurturing students. They will fully support schools in providing high-quality education that satisfies the people.

Subsequently, Chu Shijun inquired in detail about the practical difficulties faced by teachers in their daily teaching, living conditions, and teacher support. He listened to their demands on the spot and responded warmly, fully demonstrating his deep concern for grassroots educators. He also put forward a series of practical requirements for the relevant departments.

Finally, the group strolled to the school playground.

At that moment, several classes were having physical education class.

Watching the children running and playing freely on the playground, their laughter echoing everywhere, Chu Shijun nodded with a smile.

"Be careful!"

Just then, Ye Wentao's tense voice rang out, and before he finished speaking, he had already arrived in front of Chu Shijun.

The others immediately took their positions as if facing a formidable enemy.

But then a soccer ball flew over from a distance and he stomped it down.

This scene terrified Huang Shi and the others, who were on tenterhooks.

Which class played the game?

"The ones playing soccer must be from Class 6-2?"

"Never mind, call all the PE teachers and homeroom teachers from the classes on the playground for a meeting later!"

Huang Shi's gaze and the Dean of Students' gaze quickly exchanged a few words in the air, and then he hurriedly asked, "Secretary, are you alright?"

Chu Shijun ignored him, patted Ye Wentao on the shoulder, walked past him, picked up the soccer ball, and headed towards the playground to meet the boy who was running towards him.

"Teacher, this is my ball."

The boy, sweating profusely, said, "Sorry, I kicked it off target, did I hit anyone?"

"No, but kid, you still need to be more careful when you play soccer in the future."

Chu Shijun smiled and glanced at the goal on his right, "May I take a kick?"

"sure."

"Hehe, I didn't play well, don't laugh at me."

Upon hearing this, Huang Shi and the others immediately waved to the distance, signaling the people near the goal to disperse, and the goalkeeper was even pulled far away by the PE teacher.

Chu Shijun placed the ball on the ground, adjusted his position, raised his right leg, and powerfully struck the bottom of the ball.

In an instant, with a loud 'bang,' the football traced a beautiful arc and landed inside the goal.

'Pa pa pa pa'

"Secretary Chu, you played that ball very well!"

"Secretary Chu, that was a powerful kick!"

"Peach blossoms fall, shadows fall, and the divine sword flies!"

Everyone was flattering him.

"Wow, teacher, you're amazing!"

The boy's face was full of amazement.

"You flatter me, little one. I was just lucky."

Chu Shijun ignored the group behind him and only smiled at the child.

"You really like soccer? When we first arrived at the field, I saw you running the hardest."

"Of course,"

The little boy raised his chin, his eyes involuntarily glancing towards the football field beside him. "I'm going to play in the World Cup someday!"

His words were overheard by the PE teacher who was running over, and he couldn't help but purse his lips.

You're talking about kicking the World Cup? Why don't you just say you're kicking the Earth?

Given our current situation, even in nine years, or around 2026, we'll probably have 48 or 64 teams and still not be able to get in. It's just wishful thinking for kids. (Sad)

"Secretary Chu, hello everyone. Were you all hurt when the children kicked the ball poorly?"

The PE teacher naturally knew who this was and stepped forward to greet him cautiously.

"Little friend, let's go play soccer!"

Chu Shijun waved to the boy before turning to the PE teacher. "It's nothing, just a soccer ball. But you need to be careful during PE class in the future. That's the most important thing. You need to have fun and get some exercise, but you also need to ensure your physical safety."

"Secretary Chu, your words are very insightful. Please rest assured that we will continue to adhere to the principle of safety first in our future physical education and labor classes, so that the children can both exercise and develop, and have fun."

The PE teacher knew that Chu Shijun was coming and had searched a lot on the forum these past two days, so he could speak the Han Dong dialect fluently.

"That's right, physical education is great, and we must have physical education classes! We will definitely pay attention to this and ensure that every physical education class is implemented," Principal Huang Shi said hurriedly.

"Yes, moral character, intellectual ability, physical fitness, aesthetic appreciation, and labor skills should all be developed in an all-round and scientific manner."

Chu Shijun nodded and addressed the crowd.

"Putting people first is something that should always be the top priority. Children are in their growth and development period. They learn knowledge for their future development, but a healthy body is even more indispensable."
