After much consideration, Ren Xiaosu felt that being a teacher would be the easiest way to get the students' gratitude.
However, he had overlooked a problem. It was true that he was very studious and thirsty for knowledge, but that was because he had grown up in a deformed environment. The lack of knowledge in the past had led to his thirst for knowledge.
The more he lacked something, the more he desired it.
However, the other students might not necessarily desire what he desired. These children who could attend school in this era came from rather well-off families and were all blessed by their parents.
After attending school for a few years, the most annoying thing for these children was the teacher. He would make them memorize texts and make them do homework. During their teenage years, the students and teachers were natural enemies most of the time.
Although Ren Xiaosu was teaching their favorite survival class, the students' attitude toward him was not sincere at all.
Ren Xiaosu felt that perhaps the students would be grateful to him if he taught more classes.
The school in town usually ended at 4 PM. Starting from 6 AM in the stronghold, the clock would strike every two hours to tell the time. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Jinglin would never delay class.
But today, in order to gain the students' gratitude, Ren Xiaosu taught them almost everything he knew about surviving in the wilderness. The lesson went all the way to 5 PM.
It was already late autumn, and the sky was getting dark at 5 PM. The students looked at him eagerly and thought to themselves, 'This bastard is too good at teaching.'
At this moment, Zhang Jinglin could not take it anymore and went to the yard to chop some cabbages to cook.
One of the students could no longer hold it in. "Teacher … Sun, it's going to get dark if you don't end class soon. It won't be safe in town then."
This student was still a little afraid of this well-known ruthless person in town, so he did not dare to say anything harsh in front of him.
Ren Xiaosu was taken aback. He thought to himself, 'It's fine if you don't thank me, but you're even planning to dismiss the teacher?' However, he was a sensible person and knew that safety came first. So after taking a look at the sky, Ren Xiaosu waved his hand helplessly and said, "Class dismissed."
"Thank you, Teacher!"
"Thank you, Teacher!"
The students swarmed out of the school. Two of them even thanked Ren Xiaosu for saying "class was dismissed." They were really grateful to him! If the class didn't end soon, they would puke!
Ren Xiaosu was overjoyed when he saw that there were really two more gratitude coins in his palace.
How could he know why the students were thanking him? He only felt that he had taught well!
Ren Xiaosu thought it looked like his painstaking efforts had not gone to waste. After giving a lecture for so long, the students were still very grateful to him.
Yan Liuyuan said with a dark expression, "Ren Xiaosu, I know that his hard work was not in vain.
Before Ren Xiaosu could say anything, Zhang Jinglin walked in with a tray of rice in his hands. He said in a measured tone, "Xiaosu, I know you love the education industry, but it's really not good to delay the class for so long. Besides, what if you get tired?"
"No." Ren Xiaosu said righteously, "I'm willing to dedicate my life to the cause of education. It's not a problem to delay class for a little longer!"
"No." Ren Xiaosu said righteously, "I'm willing to dedicate my life to the cause of education. It's fine if I teach a little longer!"
"Ahem!" Zhang Jinglin nearly choked on Ren Xiaosu's words. But when he saw Ren Xiaosu in this state, he couldn't be bothered to say anything else. "Alright then."
The two students who thanked him did not even know how much trouble they had brought upon themselves by saying thank you to their teacher.
There was an idiom that explained this phenomenon: "Trouble comes from the mouth."
…
On the way back, Yan Liuyuan got angry with Ren Xiaosu and ignored Ren Xiaosu. He could have gone to town with Ren Xiaosu after school, but it all went to waste.
But when they passed by the pawn shop at the city gate, Yan Liuyuan suddenly tugged at Ren Xiaosu's sleeve. He pointed at the pawn shop, and Ren Xiaosu saw Sister Xiaoyu inside. She seemed to be talking to the shopkeeper about something.
Ren Xiaosu and Yan Liuyuan got closer. They heard Sister Xiaoyu say to the shopkeeper, "My earrings are very valuable. Can't you give me a little more?"
The shopkeeper looked at Sister Xiaoyu with a frivolous smile. "Actually, you don't have to pawn them. Why do you have to —"
He shut up before he could finish speaking because he saw Ren Xiaosu walking towards the pawn shop. News of last night's incident had spread throughout town. Everyone knew that Li Xiaoyu and Ren Xiaosu had a close relationship.
This was not an era of survival of the fittest where everyone would become fierce. In fact, there would always be cowards and ruthless people in every era, and the ruthless people would usually be able to live a good life.
The shopkeeper was a coward. Cowards only dared to bully the weak and fear the strong. The person Ren Xiaosu killed last night was a well-known ruthless person in town. So Ren Xiaosu was now a ruthless person among ruthless people.
The shopkeeper's eyes flickered as he pretended to drink some water. He was not sure if Ren Xiaosu had heard what he had just said.
Ren Xiaosu counted out 620 yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Sister Xiaoyu's hands. "You don't have to sell anything. This is the money for the three anti-inflammatory pills you gave me last night."
Li Xiaoyu had no source of income now, so she could only sit back and eat. However, Ren Xiaosu could not bear to see her in such a miserable state.
Li Xiaoyu wanted to give the money to Ren Xiaosu, but Ren Xiaosu said, "I was going to buy medicine anyway, so just accept it. It's not that I don't want to owe you a favor, but we don't have to be so polite in the future. "
Li Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean?"
Last year, Ren Xiaosu had luckily escaped from a pack of wolves. As he had never told anyone how he managed to escape, he only knew that he had survived because of the medicine Li Xiaoyu gave him. Without the antibiotics and anti-inflammatory pills, he would probably have died a long time ago.
Therefore, what he owed Li Xiaoyu was not just a few pills, but his life.
Ren Xiaosu said seriously to Sister Xiaoyu, "Don't worry. In the future, as long as I have meat to eat, you will have soup to drink!"
"Brother, you're wrong," Yan Liuyuan said softly. Didn't other people eat meat together? Why did it become like drinking soup with you? "Besides, we don't have meat at home now …"
"Oh." Ren Xiaosu nodded and changed the way he phrased it to Sister Xiaoyu. "In the future, as long as I have soup to drink, you will have to wash the dishes!"
Yan Liuyuan, "???"
"Pfft!" The shopkeeper, who was drinking water at the side, spat it out.
However, Li Xiaoyu did not mind. "Okay, then I will wash the dishes and clothes for you from now on."
When she said this, she did not think about whether the water was enough. She just agreed to it first.
The shopkeeper smacked his lips as he watched Ren Xiaosu and the other two walk out. He turned to the shop assistant and said, "Don't provoke him, do you hear me?"
Just as Ren Xiaosu and the others walked out of the door, they suddenly heard a cry. "Doctor, please save my husband. Our family won't be able to survive without him."
At the entrance of the clinic, a middle-aged woman was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to the only doctor in town. However, the doctor sneered, "How can you treat a patient if you don't have money?"
"If you save him, our whole family will thank you for your great kindness." The woman cried and said, "The old doctor was a very kind person when he was still alive. You're his son, so you must be very kind as well."
"My father is kind, but that's his business!"
The doctor turned around and closed the clinic's door. There was also a man lying next to the woman whose abdomen was bleeding non-stop.
Ren Xiaosu did not go forward, nor did he try to be a kind-hearted person. In fact, he could tell that the man was already dead.
He just looked at the scene and said calmly, "Liuyuan, remember everything that's happening in front of you. This is reality."
