“In the future, you’ll stay at my house. I will raise you up!” Teacher Lin patted his chest with a smile on his face. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was very happy.
The people around them were all very surprised because it was time for school to end, and some villagers had come to pick up their children.
The youth called Zhongjin still did not have any extra expression, as if he was not the one who was adopted.
Teacher Lin did not mind as he had a smile on his face.
There was a woman beside him who muttered, “Is this child Teacher Lin’s relative?” Why haven’t I heard of it before?”
“What do you know? It’s rumored that Teacher Lin came here to teach because he’s looking for someone.”
“It’s probably this child, right?”
“That’s not right. If Teacher Lin wants to find a child, he should go to Deming Temple directly. Everyone knows that Deming Temple takes in homeless children,” someone questioned.
“How would I know? Teacher Lin seems to be surprised by the child’s appearance. Maybe he couldn’t meet him previously?”
“Since Teacher Lin came here specifically to look for this child, does that mean that he have to go back after finding the child?” The moment this question came out.
Many parents were stunned.
Then, they realized that Teacher Lin was the only teacher in the village who could teach. If he left, the village school would not be able to run in the future. Then, everyone would have to send their children to the county for school in the future. However, the daily travel time to the county was longer. It was fine if they had a mule cart at home, but if they did not, they would have to suffer everyday in the winter.
Even if the adults could take it, how could the children?
Of course, the most important thing was that the county school’s fees were even higher.
“Teacher Lin, congratulations on finding your nephew. I wonder if you will be leaving after finding this child?” Someone in the crowd asked.
The parents who came to pick up their children did not go up. They were instantly blocked at the door. Even a few monks were squeezed into the school.
Chu Ziluo had already been dragged out by Nenya when the parents surrounded her.
She saw the boy called Zhongjin being stepped on by the old women in the village. She subconsciously reached out and pulled him out of the crowd.
Teacher Lin was still in a good mood. When he heard this question, he hesitated for a moment. In just a short while, he was surrounded by the villagers.
“Teacher Lin, are you admitting it?” A parent wailed.
Teacher Lin thought of his purpose.
Village because I heard that news about Zhongjin here, so I stayed here for five years. Now that I’ve found him, I want to return home.”
“Ah, what should I do? Where will my child go to school in the future?” “Teacher Lin, let’s talk. You can’t just leave.”
“That’s right, Teacher Lin. You can’t just leave the students alone.”
Looking at the chaotic situation, Teacher Lin had a headache. He quickly said,
“Everyone, don’t squeeze. I’ll return the fees to everyone before we leave.”
He had already been delayed here for too long. Since he had found Zhongjin, he naturally had to return home as soon as possible. After all, he still had his wife and children at home. Staying here for five years was already very unfair to his wife and children.
As he spoke, he did not see Zhongjin. He quickly looked around and saw that Zhongjin was pulled to the side by the daughter of the Chu family. He was not squeezed. He heaved a sigh of relief and quickly focused on dealing with the situation in front of him.
“We don’t want the fees.. Teacher Lin, if you suddenly leave, what about the children’s studies?”
