Chapter 240 I'll Pay
Guan Lei suddenly remembered that Zhao Mei had come to her house last time, which was the day when Zhao Lan took the knife.
She felt relieved. Even if the old Yin-Yang magic was really broken and a daughter was born, she could completely blame it on Zhao Mei.
At this time, the waiter had also calculated the cost of Guan Youshuang and her friends' meal and said the total was 1756 yuan.
Feng Zhuanxia was almost frightened to death.
She hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Is it 175?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Auntie, you are really funny. Two bottles of Fenjiu cost 1600 yuan."
"Ah, this is so expensive?"
Feng Zhuanxia looked towards the direction of the gate. Zhao Yang had drunk quite a bit of wine just now. Their meal would not cost four or five thousand.
She touched the hundred yuan in her trouser pocket and felt cold sweat on her head.
Recently, her son's business has not been good. I heard that he hasn't received wages for a long time. Although her son gave her some pocket money a while ago, he took it away the day before yesterday. Now, the family is indeed a bit tight on money.
If it wasn't Zhao Hongcai's birthday today, they definitely wouldn't have come to such an expensive restaurant for dinner.
Actually, it was just a birthday, so it didn't matter where to eat, but my son was so filial that he insisted on bringing them here.
Zhao Mei looked at her and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Mom? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No." Feng Zhuanxia wiped her forehead and said, "I just feel a little hot."
"It's a little hot today, but it's windy outside, so it's quite comfortable."
Guan Youshuang took out her wallet and started counting the money.
Feng Zhuanxia's eyes widened as she stared, and Guan Lei beside her was also stunned.
Where does she get so much money?
Isn’t it said that her embroidery factory is in a lot of debt?
When she thought about the fact that she was penniless, she felt very upset.
At this moment, the hotel door curtain fluttered, and a few people walked in, talking and laughing.
Guan Youshuang took a casual look and found that they were the director of the county education bureau and the principal of Chenyang Middle School, as well as two unfamiliar faces, who were probably other teaching and research staff of the education bureau.
Principal Chen saw Guan Youshuang first and exclaimed in surprise, "Teacher Guan, what a coincidence."
The director also walked over with a smile and extended his hand to shake hands with Guan Youshuang.
The greetings and compliments, as well as the look given to Guan Youshuang, made Gu Errong, who was sitting not far away, feel extremely uncomfortable.
He himself was also in the county, and had heard before that the director was a bit of a lecher.
He walked over and coughed.
Guan Youshuang introduced them to each other.
"Oh, Gu Errong, you're from the County Hydropower Bureau, right? We've worked with you on a small-scale power generation project before, and you wrote the plan. It was very well written."
"Thank you." Gu Errong said in a light tone.
"You two are both excellent. If Teacher Guan can be transferred to the Education Bureau, you can see each other every day."
Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "Director, I will definitely go if I have the chance."
"By the way, Teacher Guan, isn't Gu Xiaoyun here?" Principal Chen looked around.
"It's coming. It's over there."
When Guan Youshuang turned around, the long bench was already empty.
"Hey, he was here just now. Maybe he went out with my mom."
"No hurry, this child has brought honor to our school this time, and the director wants to meet her."
As he was talking, Gu Xiaoyun came in eating a popsicle.
There is another one in his hand.
If Gu Xiaoyun knew that the principal and the director of the Education Bureau were in the hotel at this time, she would never come in.
"Xiao Yun, come here quickly." Principal Chen shouted.
Gu Xiaoyun blushed, hid the popsicle behind her, and walked over.
The director looked Gu Xiaoyun up and down, nodded and said, "What a good kid. He got the first place in the county. That's amazing."
Gu Xiaoyun didn't know what to say.
At this time, other people also looked over and started talking about the high school entrance examination.
Gu Xiaoyun felt even more uncomfortable.
“I hope you continue to work hard and look forward to seeing you make another splash in three years.”
Gu Xiaoyun nodded, the popsicles behind her melted into water, and she wanted to run away quickly.
The waiter couldn't wait any longer and said, "Ms. Guan, can you pay for the meal first? The guests behind are still waiting."
The director took out his wallet from his jacket pocket and said, "How much is it? I'll pay for the meal."
"How can that be possible?" Guan Youshuang quickly took money from her wallet, "Director, please don't embarrass us."
"Teacher Guan, don't be so polite. Your family has cultivated such an outstanding student, and you have made such a great contribution to Chenyang Middle School. It's just a meal. What's the big deal?"
After saying that, the director paid the money.
Although he was still shocked when he heard that the meal bill was more than a thousand, it could all be reimbursed.
He didn't come here just to stroll around today, but to conduct a field investigation.
Chenyang Middle School made it through the high school entrance exam this time, which is not only an honor for Chenyang Middle School, but also an honor for their entire county. For this, the Municipal Education Bureau also awarded them a considerable amount of bonus.
In addition, Guan Youshuang talked about the current situation of the school last time. No matter what, their Education Bureau will not sit idly by and must add various supporting facilities and teacher resources.
Compared with the 50,000 yuan bonus, what is this more than 1,000 yuan?
Moreover, they also prepared a bonus of one thousand yuan specifically for Gu Xiaoyun, planning to give it to her as soon as school started.
Feng Zhuanxia was stunned.
She listened for a long time, and became more and more confused.
Just because Gu Xiaoyun got the first place in the exam, this director paid for such an expensive meal for them?
How come they are so lucky?
In the past, her youngest daughter Zhao Lan also ranked first in the exam, but how come she got nothing but a shabby certificate?
She looked back at Zhao Lan who was standing behind her and thought: I really can't get anything done right.
"Okay, it's your turn," the waiter called to Feng Zhuanxia, "The total is 53 yuan."
53?
Feng Zhuanxia breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, their wine is cheap.
She pulled out a wad of change from her trouser pocket, counted out 53 yuan, handed it over, and then stuffed the rest of the money into her trouser pocket.
"Let's go, let's go back." Feng Zhuanxia turned around and said to Zhao Lan.
"Ah."
As the three of them walked to the entrance of the restaurant, they saw Wang Shan, the Chinese teacher from Chenyang Middle School, and Zhang Qingsheng, the mathematics teacher, walking in, chatting and laughing.
Feng Zhuanxia was immediately furious. She rushed forward and pushed Zhang Qingsheng hard, cursing, "How dare you laugh?"
Zhang Qingsheng was originally thin and small, and he was not paying attention, so he took a few steps back, stumbled, and fell to the ground.
He stood up, adjusted his glasses, and yelled, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing? I told you last time, don't let me see you again, or I'll beat you up every time I see you." Feng Zhuanxia said viciously, "Come on, your principal and director are here today, let's let them judge for us."
At this time, everyone gathered around.
Feng Zhuanxia became even more excited. She pulled Zhang Qingsheng's collar hard and dragged him into the restaurant.
