Happy 38.1

 

             Chapter 38.1 – Routine (1)

 

Early morning.

After Jiang Yan washed up, she walked back to the room, and saw Lu Jin holding the curtains in his hand, looking out from the gap between them.

Jiang Yan moved towards him, squeezed in under his arms, and followed his gaze.

In the spacious courtyard, Uncle Wang was wearing a white silk long dress and trousers, playing Tai Chi under the tree, in a leisurely manner. On the side, Uncle Wang’s wife is feeding the chickens by the chicken shed.

"What are you looking at?" Jiang Yan looked outside, then looked up at him.

"Nothing." Lu Jin lowered the curtains: "Where are you going today?"

"Let’s go to school." Jiang Yan walked to the closet to tidy up her camera and recording equipment: "First understand the basic information of the students in the school, then visit their families, and then edit these interviews together, calling the society to pay attention to these children left behind in the countryside."

She possibly briefed Lu Jin about her task this time.

"Because you are my husband, you don't need to visit with us, you can just wander around the village to see if there are any clues."

He raised his eyebrows: "Your husband's identity?"

Jiang Yan's face turned red: "Fake husband!"

"Oh, sharing the bed with your fake husband last night, did Reporter Jiang sleep well?"

Jiang Yan hummed: "I didn't sleep well at all!"

"What's the matter?"

"You hold a gun to my waist, all night long, who can sleep well?"

"..."

"..."

Lu Jin blushed unexpectedly, a rare spectacle.

In the morning, a truckload of people went to school again. Of course, Lu Jin didn't follow the team. He said that he didn't sleep well last night and had to sleep at home.

Jiang Yan certainly didn't believe that he really wanted to sleep, he must be doing his own work. After all, his purpose of coming here this time was to spot the old drug lord lurking in the village.

"What? You and Lu Jin slept in the same room last night?" Duan Nan's chin was about to fall, "Is it time for both of you guys to get together?"

"Be quiet." Jiang Yan said in a low voice: "Because we have no other option to sleep together if we want to act as a couple."

"Hehehe..."

"Stop it." Jiang Yan glanced at him: "It's not as messy as you think."

"I just thought of something about me." Duan Nan said with a smile, "If something really happened between you guys, would you still be able to get up so early in morning came with me to school?"

The more we talk about this topic, the more wrong it gets. Jiang Yan coughed lightly: "It's still business only."

Duan Nan walked into the office with her and took out a document from the cabinet: "The information of classmates whose parents go out to work away from home, you can look through them and select typical home visits."

Jiang Yan flipped it casually and said, "It's quite detailed."

"You ordered me to get everything, can I deal with it casually?"

"Thanks, I will invite you to dinner when we go back."

"I am waiting."

Jiang Yan sat in a chair and began to look through the materials. At this time, a young female teacher walked into the office with red eyes. She threw the textbooks on the table in a rage.

"Ms. Li, what's wrong?"

"It's Sun Hong from the junior high school. Even if he arrives late and skips school, I didn’t say anything, and now he is playing poker in the classroom. I criticized him but he is fiercer than me. This student cannot be taught

"His father died early, and his mother was not at home all the time. Grandparents at the home love the child and can't control him." Other teachers persuaded, "Don't get angry. You have to take your time to deal with such a stubborn child."

The first page of Jiang Yan’s information is Sun Hong’s name. He is in the third grade of junior high school this year and is about to graduate. His father died of illness in his early years, and his mother worked in the city and did not go home for many years. Family, now he lives with his grandparents.

Jiang Yan looked at the data sheet carefully: "Sun Hong..."

Duan Nan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Interested?"

At this moment, two students hurried into the office: "Report...Report to the teacher! Sun Hong grabbed a classmate's schoolbag on the playground!"

The teachers put down their work and hurried to the playground. Several boys were pulling on the playground. The tallest one had a black face and a round head, and looked fierce and evil.

The other two boys are relatively small and appear very thin due to malnutrition.

"Sun Hong! Don't bully the younger classmates!" The male teacher yelled. Sun Hong raised his head and saw several teachers. He threw down the glutinous rice cake he had stolen from his hand, turned and ran.

"Stop, bastard, don't run!"

The principal happened to come back from outside the school gate and directly blocked Sun Hong's path, "What's wrong, what's wrong with you bastard?"

Sun Hong was surrounded by several teachers and cursed: "Heck, your mother."

It's a stubborn and insulting appearance.

"Teacher, he robbed me of my money!" Seeing that a teacher was supporting him, the bullied classmate quickly stood up and said, "He robbed me of 10 yuan!"

"Who robbed you of your money!" Sun Hong spit: "I only robbed your black rice cake."

Another classmate also stood up to testify: "Teacher, he robbed the money!"

"Nonsense, I didn't grab your money!"

"Sun Hong, you usually don't listen to lectures in class, skip class, and now you have developed into a robber?" Teacher Li said angrily, "Hand over the money you robbed of your classmates."

Sun Hong flushed anxiously, and said repeatedly: "I didn't grab the money! What to pay!"

"Teacher, the money is in his bag!"

Sun Hong instinctively covered his left bag: "This is the money I bought this so I can buy my old lady pancakes. I didn't grab it!"

"Sun Hong, you must hand over the money, otherwise you won't come to school tomorrow." Teacher Li said angrily, "I have taught for so many years, and I have never seen such a stubborn student like you!"

Seeing the principal and the teachers all around him, Sun Hong's originally dark face flushed with anxiety and was emotional.

He took out two ten-yuan bills from his bag, crumpled them up and threw them on the faces of the two students: "Take it! I gave you a charity! Take it and buy a coffin!"

TL- I felt really bad when translating this last part. I really think that Sun Hong is innocent but he had no one to fight for him, he is really pitiful.
