Chapter 1721: I’m afraid too

Translator: 549690339

The voice was very loud, and everyone in the courtyard immediately looked over.

A middle-aged man in ordinary clothes and a plain old man stood outside the courtyard. The man was wearing a pair of ordinary black-rimmed glasses. His serious face now had an unconcealed surprised expression.

The old man also looked at the three people in the courtyard in surprise and did not speak for a long time.

Yin ya was the first one to recover from her shock and said with an affirmative tone,”Yes, it does exist. I’ve already inspected it and it’s very suitable for Miao Miao.”

“That’s great, that’s great. ” The serious-looking middle-aged man was overjoyed and kept repeating.

“This is a great thing. A great thing.” At this time, the old man outside the courtyard also reacted and said.

“But wouldn’t that cost a lot of money?” Only Tian Miao’s grandparents looked at each other before hesitantly asking.

“I can sponsor a portion of it.” Before Yin ya could say anything, the middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses immediately opened his mouth.

The old man at the side took a puff of his pipe and said in a rough voice,””I’ll ask the people in the village to gather some and see if it’s possible,”

As soon as he said that, Yin ya immediately knew the identity of the old man. He was the village head of this village.

“Thank you, teacher Guan. Thank you, village chief Tian.” Tian Miao’s grandparents quickly turned to the two and bowed, their faces full of gratitude.

It was not that the two elders were taking advantage of the situation, but that they were too eager for Tian Miao to study and have a bright future.

They were fine with it since half of their lives had already passed. However, Tian Miao was only ten years old and was still too young to let her granddaughter fall behind in her studies because of certain matters.

......

No matter how poor they were, they could not be poor in education. This was the view of many of the older generation. They could stay here to work and provide for Miao Miao so that they could pay off their debts. They only hoped that Tian Miao would be better.

“It’s fine. I’m Miaomiao’s form teacher. It’s what I should do. ” The middle-aged man who was called teacher Guan recovered his serious expression and said seriously.

“What’s wrong with that? we can’t help you with anything else. ” The old village head was even more direct, waving his hand as he said.

At this moment, Yin ya finally had the chance to interrupt. She hurriedly said,”Grandpa, grandma, and teacher Guan and the village, I didn’t make it clear. This school is for public welfare, so there’s no need for school fees and medical expenses. You only need to provide for your own living expenses.”

What Yin ya didn’t mention was that if they were orphans who didn’t even need living expenses, the school would be responsible for them until they came of age.

However, Tian Miao’s situation was different. She was not an orphan, so she had to provide her own living expenses.

“There are really many good people here. There’s even such a good philanthropist.” Tian Miao’s grandparents felt as if they had been knocked out by the pleasant surprise and could not stop chanting, turning the principal whom they had never met into a living Bodhisattva.

“The principal is really a selfless and great person.” Teacher Guan said with great respect.

“Yes, he’s a very good person. There are many good people out there.” The old village head also sighed with emotion.

“The principal is a good man worthy of respect.” Yin ya nodded her head and said affirmatively.

“Also, there will be accommodation for your grandparents there. You can find some workers in the school to earn some living expenses to accompany Miao Miao.” Yin ya said again.

“Ah? “That’s too troublesome. We’re already so old. How can we pay? that won’t do. We can’t hold up the principal. That won’t do. ” Tian Miao’s grandparents were happy to hear that they could keep Miao Miao company, but they immediately shook their heads and refused when they heard that they would be paid.

“It’s possible. There are children like Miao Miao in that school. Moreover, that school is located in Shanghai, outside the province.” Yin ya said.

“Ah? Shanghai seems to be very far away. ” Tian Miao’s grandparents said hesitantly.

“Can Miao Miao handle it alone?” Tian Miao’s grandmother thought worriedly.

“No wonder I’ve never heard of it. It’s in Shanghai.” Teacher Guan muttered in his heart.

The old village head was smoking a pipe, thinking about something and not saying a word.

At this time, Yin ya didn’t say anything and just waited for the two old men to think. As soon as she stopped, she saw Tian Miao standing at the door of the room.

The little girl stood there with reddened eyes. She didn’t know how much she had heard, but she didn’t move.

“Miaomiao, come here.” Yin ya waved her hand and called.

“Yes.” Tian Miao nodded and walked into the yard.

When they reached the middle, Tian Miao first bowed to teacher Guan, who was standing outside the courtyard.””Thank you, teacher Guan. Thank you.”

“You don’t have to be so polite, I’m your form teacher.” Still, teacher Guan declined Tian Miao’s thanks.

“But you’ve helped us a lot,” Tian Miao continued.

With that, Tian Miao turned and bowed to the old village chief.””Thank you, Grandpa village chief. Thank you, and thank you to all the uncles and aunties who didn’t come.”

The old village chief looked a little ashamed as he turned his body slightly to avoid Tian Miao’s thanks. He put down his cigarette and muttered,””I know that you are a good child, Miao Miao. As long as you don’t hold a grudge against those people, it’s fine. Actually, they had no other choice. It’s been hard on you.”

With that, the old village head couldn’t help but sigh and turn his face away without saying anything.

The old village chief was naturally referring to the two times when the villagers forced Miao Miao to not go to school.

The first time was when Miao Miao had just been found to have HIV. The village jointly protested against Miao Miao being in the same class as their own children.

At that time, Miao Miao was only in her second year. When Miao Miao was forced to drop out of school and stay at home, her grandparents went to school for a long time. The school had no choice but to invite the leaders of the health Bureau and hospital to hold special lectures on prevention in the school. Only then did things get better.

However, as Miao Miao grew older and showed more symptoms of her illness, the people in the village once again joined hands to protest. This time, it was the protest of all the parents in the school and people from other villages.

After all, the children in this village were not the only ones studying in that elementary school.

It was this time that Miao Miao was completely out of school, and it happened at the end of her schooling days.

The old village chief’s grandson was also in that school. He was the tall boy who had helped Miao Miao carry the paper box.

Therefore, the old village chief naturally felt guilty and did not dare to look at Miao Miao’s eyes that were filled with gratitude.

“Grandpa chief, it’s not like that. Miao Miao won’t hold a grudge against the uncles and aunties. Actually, the uncles and aunties are right. Miao Miao is still a child. Sometimes, she doesn’t know how to control herself so that she doesn’t get hurt or bleed. If it was Miao Miao, she would be afraid too. So it’s only right for the uncles and aunties to be afraid.” Tian Miao explained seriously.

“AI!” Hearing such words, the old village chief’s heart trembled. He couldn’t bear to show it on his face and could only sigh.

“That’s right. We don’t blame anyone. Don’t think too much about it, village. This is fate. It’s our fate.” Tian Miao’s grandmother said.

“Yes,” Tian Miao’s grandfather nodded in agreement.

For a moment, the atmosphere inside and outside the courtyard was a bit heavy. At this time, boss Guan frowned and said.

“Miaomiao, do you want to continue your studies?” Teacher Guan asked.

Tian Miao looked at Yin ya’s encouraging smiling face and her grandparents ‘expectant eyes and nodded heavily.”Yes, I do.”

“Alright, we’ll all help you.” Teacher Guan also nodded his head as if he had made a promise and then looked at Yin ya expectantly.
