As Xiao Yiyi said, the principal of No. 22 Middle School is really acting as a substitute teacher at this time.

There was no one in the office, and Si Yan didn't want to continue to visit this really pitiful school, so he and Xiao Yiyi simply stood at the door of the office and waited.

Fortunately, there was not much time left in this class, and the two of them didn't wait long before they heard the bell for the end of class.

During this period, Xiao Yiyi couldn't help but ask Si Yan's purpose for coming to Twenty-two Middle School, but Si Yan smiled and didn't say anything.

Finally waited for the old principal, Xiao Yiyi couldn't help but shed tears as soon as she saw him.

"Old Headmaster!"

The principal's surname is Wang, but because he is old, he was obviously rehired after retiring, so everyone is now more accustomed to calling him the old principal.

The old headmaster pushed his glasses and looked at them, and then he recognized who called him.

"It's Xiao Yiyi! When did you come back? ”

Seeing that the principal could still recognize herself, Xiao Yiyi was even more excited, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and then said in a proper manner: "Principal, I found a job in France, and this time I am returning from a business trip." Headmaster, are you okay? ”

I haven't seen him for a few years, and the old principal is even older, his back is getting worse and worse, and his hair is all gray, without a trace of black.

Fortunately, the old principal's mental state was not bad, and he chatted with Xiao Yiyi with a smile, and then asked about the young man standing not far away.

"Yiyi, is that your friend?"

As soon as the old principal asked, Xiao Yiyi suddenly remembered Si Yan behind her, hurriedly staggered, and introduced: "Old principal, this is the ...... I work now."

"Hello old principal, I'm Yiyi's fiancé, my name is Si Yan."

Si Yan didn't give Xiao Yiyi a chance to finish speaking, and directly turned the president that Xiao Yiyi was about to say into a fiancé.

Xiao Yiyi looked at Si Yan puzzled, but Si Yan looked calm, "Yiyi always mentioned you when she was in France, and when I returned to China this time, we came to see you." If there is any disturbance to you, please forgive me. ”

Si Yan's politeness won the old principal's appreciation, "The young man is very good at talking!" Come on, come in and say! Don't stand outside. ”

As the old principal spoke, he opened the door of the office, Xiao Yiyi glanced at Si Yan in puzzlement, but Si Yan didn't even look at him, and followed the old principal directly into the office.

Just when Xiao Yiyi was wondering if she would appear at home again, Si Yan had bribed her parents, and she had become the least important thing to happen, Si Yan had already chatted with the old principal.

Listening to them chatting about the school, Xiao Yiyi's doubts couldn't help but grow bigger and bigger.

When he first came out, Si Yan obviously looked like he was going to be busy with work, but now why has it become a family chat with the old principal?

"Yiyi?"

Si Yan suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Yiyi, who was still in a fugue and didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Si Yan called again, Xiao Yiyi heard it, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"You go buy some drinks with the driver and come back, I suddenly want to drink coffee."

Hearing Si Yan say this, Xiao Yiyi was stunned, but she still nodded obediently, said hello to the old principal, and left the principal's office.

And after Xiao Yiyi was gone, the old principal asked, "Mr. Si, you have taken Yiyi away, but what do you want to tell me alone?" ”

"Principal Mingjian, that's really the case."

Si Yan didn't hide it, and told the old principal about his plan.

"What? You're going to use our campus for your engagement ceremony? The old principal looked at Si Yan in shock.

And Si Yan nodded calmly, "Well, yes." The preparation for the engagement ceremony takes at least a week, so during this week, the old principal may need to arrange for the students to go to class elsewhere. ”

"Impossible!"

The old principal refused without thinking about it, "The students have less time to attend classes now, if it is delayed for another week, do you know what kind of impact it will have on the students?" ”

Hearing this, Si Yan was not in a hurry, but said with a smile: "Old principal, don't you want to know what I will provide you as compensation for your school's use?" ”

"Offering nothing will not work!"

The old principal still shook his head resolutely, "No matter what the conditions, you can't delay the students' learning!" ”

Seeing that the old principal's attitude was so resolute and affirmative, Si Yan was not angry, but smiled more and more happily.

The atmosphere in the office seemed a little tense, and the old principal's resolute denial was in stark contrast to Si Yan's determination to win.

This war without gunpowder began between this old man and the young man.

After a while, Si Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and still asked with a smile: "Old principal, I don't know if you have calculated, what were the students of your school doing during the seven days that I said I wanted to rent your school?" ”

"What do you mean?"

The old principal's brows were furrowed, and the eyes that looked at Si Yanye were obviously no longer the affirmations they had just met.

But Si Yan didn't care at all, and continued: "In the middle of next month, if I'm not mistaken, your school should be in the exam period. During this period, not all students will come to school, and those who come to school will only leave after taking the exam. I'm not wrong about that, old headmaster. ”

This time, the old principal didn't refute it all at once, but thought about it very seriously, and opened the desk calendar at hand, and then asked with a little suspicion: "What you said is not wrong, during that time, the students of the school were indeed taking the final exam in batches." ”

After receiving the old principal's affirmative answer, Si Yan nodded and said, "Actually, my requirements are not high, just renting the venue of your school." As for the students' exams, I will naturally not delay them, but will provide other venues for the students to take the exams. ”

"Can you offer other venues?"

The old headmaster seemed to be a little moved.

"Well, that's right, provide the venue, all the costs are borne by me, and the school doesn't need to spend a penny. In addition, I also arrange the travel of students to and from the school. When the time comes, I will come to the school in a special car to pick up the students, and then send the students back to the school after the exams. If there are exams in the morning and afternoon, I will be in charge of lunch and lunch breaks. ”

Hearing Si Yan say this, the suspicion in the old principal's eyes became more and more obvious, but he still asked: "Then tell me, what are your requirements for using our school?" ”

"There are no requirements, just give me the venue completely, and when the engagement ceremony comes, the old principal and the teacher who has taught and helped Yiyi will be present to bless you."

Si Yan said very seriously and stopped chuckling.

This time, the old principal looked at Si Yan seriously again, he didn't hate or like it, the only thing he had was just puzzlement and doubt, "Mr. Si, you must know that according to what you just said, picking up and dropping off students, and providing a venue and even including lunch, these add up, the cost is not a lot." I think you can use this fee to rent a more spacious venue that is even more suitable for an engagement ceremony! ”

"Yes, the old headmaster is not wrong at all. However, no matter how good other places are, for Yiyi, they are not as important as their alma mater. ”

These words made the old headmaster silent, and after thinking about it seriously, he said: "I can consider your request, but I want to take a look at the place where you provide exams for the children, as well as lunch breaks, and lunch, I have to try it myself." If one of the things you offer is substandard, don't think about using our school anymore. ”

When Si Yan heard this, he shrugged his shoulders and made a "you are casual" expression, then he stood up and stretched out his hand towards the old principal, "Then, I hope our cooperation is pleasant, old principal." ”

"Young man, the so-called engagement ceremony or something, no matter how luxurious it is, it can't compete with a heart in ordinary days. I just hope you'll be nice to the child. Yiyi is a good girl and deserves to be treated well. ”

These words made Si Yan nod with deep understanding, and said solemnly: "Old principal, rest assured, in this world, there will definitely be no one more suitable to spend this life with her than me." ”

In fact, what Si Yan wants to say more is that Xiao Yiyi has been his woman all her life, and others don't even think about it.

However, when the words came to his lips, he was replaced by another statement, and this statement was obviously more acceptable to the almost stubborn old headmaster in front of him.

The time to see the venue was set for the next day, because the old principal had a day off.

After deciding this matter, Si Yan asked the old principal not to tell Xiao Yiyi first, for such a so-called surprise and the like, the old principal understood very well, and immediately nodded in response.

Sure that he had the support of the old principal, Si Yan asked with a little curiosity: "Old principal, don't you just ask what I will provide to your school as a price for using the school?" ”

"Well, no."

The old principal did not hesitate, and said directly: "As long as it does not affect the normal learning of the students, it is just to lend you an engagement ceremony, not to mention that Yiyi is still a student of our school, as an alma mater, what does it matter if you provide a venue?" ”

Si Yan was shocked by this old principal again, such a principal who only thinks about the public and the students, it is no wonder that he will be hired back again.

"The location of No. 22 Middle School is not bad, but the campus environment is a little worse, if the overall improvement, coupled with the leadership of the old principal, I think, No. 22 Middle School wants to become a good high school in Ducheng, it should not be a difficult thing!"

Faced with Si Yan's doubts, the old principal just sighed, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and then said: "All the rewards must be invested in it." Once the hardware facilities are in place, then there will be corresponding requirements for the level of teachers, like the teachers in the current school, I am afraid it will be difficult to be competent. ”

"Isn't the improvement of the quality of teachers a blessing for students?"

The old principal nodded, and shook his head again, "If it's for a child like Yiyi who can learn, can learn, and wants to learn, it's naturally a blessing." However, in that case, the cost of hiring a teacher would be more than one or two times higher. In addition to a part of the financial subsidies, the increase in teachers' incomes still has to come out of students' tuition and miscellaneous fees. At present, the tuition and miscellaneous fees of the school are only a few dozen yuan a year for a student, but if it is like what Mr. Si said, the tuition and miscellaneous fees may increase to more than 100 or even more. ”

"Uh......"

Si Yan wanted to say, is this too much?

However, looking at the sad face of the old principal, he knew that this money would definitely not be a decimal number for the students of the twenty-second middle school.
