Chapter 453 Establishment of the Private School
Mr. Li also realized that their private school needed to recruit new teachers from outside. He entrusted the task of recruiting teachers to Su Xiaoxiao. She decided to go to the town to find the private school where Su Bingcheng used to study. Why? This private school was actually the most beloved and respected private school in Xianglan Ancient Town, and the teachers there were also very capable.

Regardless of whether they could be poached, Su Xiaoxiao was determined to give it a try.

The private school teacher found it quite amusing when he heard that Su Xiaoxiao wanted to poach him to teach at the village's private school, which was not even open yet.

But seeing Su Xiaoxiao's sincere demeanor, he learned upon asking that although Su Xiaoxiao was just an ordinary village woman, she valued education so much and was willing to use her business money to sponsor the village children's education and build schools for them free of charge. He was truly moved by Su Xiaoxiao's spirit.

why?
This old man wasn't from the town when he was young; his family farmed in the village. But he wanted to study and seized every opportunity to learn.

It is easy to imagine how difficult it was for him to study; only he himself knows the hardships he endured along the way.

Su Xiaoxiao is only in her early twenties, yet she has such a broad mind; it's truly admirable.

So, seeing Su Xiaoxiao's attitude, he immediately said, "I can't go to the village to teach with you; the students at the private school here still need me. But I can recommend one of my students, who is also an excellent teacher."

Su Xiaoxiao was deeply moved upon hearing this.

This old gentleman is practically a professor; how could the students he recommends be anything less than excellent? They must be doctoral or graduate students or something similar.

Su Xiaoxiao was very happy at this moment, and the gentleman who recommended her was also very willing to go to the private school in Su Xiaoxiao's village.

With the matter of finding a new teacher settled, Su Xiaoxiao made a big fuss about the opening of the new private school. She first publicized it through loudspeakers in and around the village for several days, and promised to hold a banquet on the day. She also invited people from the village to set up a stage for opera performances. She made a big fuss for several days, and the village head was very supportive and helped with the publicity.

It had been a long time since Baihua Village had had such a joyous occasion. Everyone came to offer their congratulations and celebrate Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ping'an's pioneering achievement in successfully establishing the private school in Baihua Village.

During the banquet, everyone came over to offer toasts, expressing their gratitude for the contributions made by Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ping'an.

The two exchanged polite greetings and then returned the toasts offered by others.

This inevitably led to him drinking a few more glasses of wine. Su Xiaoxiao was very happy to see that Su Ping'an's face was flushed today.

In fact, he also knew that after the private school was built, Mr. Li was also distracted and could not teach Su Ping'an one-on-one as before. The time left for Su Ping'an would become less and less, and Su Ping'an would still have to learn these things on his own.

Su Xiaoxiao had great faith in Su Ping'an's ability to learn on his own.

At this moment, a very beautiful woman, about the same age as Su Ping'an, walked over and went straight to Su Ping'an.

Holding a wine glass in her hand, she smiled sweetly at Su Ping'an and said, "Congratulations! I never imagined you could help Baihua Village build its first private school. You've finally fulfilled your childhood dream!"

"ah?"

Su Xiaoxiao stood next to Su Ping'an, holding a wine glass, listening somewhat awkwardly. What was going on? Judging from what they were saying, these two knew each other when they were children?
Su Ping'an was stunned for a moment, then he immediately slapped his forehead and greeted him enthusiastically, "It's you, you're finally back?"

"Huh?" Su Xiaoxiao was unsure whether she should go over and find out what the two people were talking about and what their relationship was.

As luck would have it, the village headman over there, named Su Xiaoxiao, said that the village headman from the next village also wanted to meet Su Xiaoxiao and asked her to come over and have a word with him.

Having no other choice, Su Xiaoxiao took her wine glass and left.

But she could still hear the woman's silvery laughter and Su Ping'an's laughter and her voice talking to her. She couldn't hear what they were saying, but the feeling was very intimate.

"Yes, this is really not good..."

Su Xiaoxiao felt as if all her strength had been drained away. Having been with Su Ping'an for so long, she had never asked him if he had a white moonlight before he met her.

Su Xiaoxiao simply didn't know how to bring it up, and for so long, she seemed to have been so busy with her career that she had completely overlooked this issue.

Now, a crisis has arrived, and Su Xiaoxiao is gradually realizing that she was the one who suddenly appeared. Before Su Ping'an met her, didn't anyone like him? That seems unlikely. Su Ping'an is so handsome, so outstanding, a dashing young man with a great physique.

Ugh!
When Su Xiaoxiao was summoned by the village head to meet the village head of the neighboring village, she didn't even know which leg she took first when she went there.

What should have been a lively banquet turned into a cacophony of noise in Su Xiaoxiao's ears, her head buzzing. She was very busy, searching for Su Ping'an in the crowd, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find him, and the beautiful woman had also disappeared without a trace.

Su Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. All she wanted to do was leave the banquet quietly by herself, but the village head insisted on making her toast to each table.

What was supposed to be a happy day turned into a very unpleasant one.

While everyone was making a ruckus inside, they heard someone shouting at the door, "Something terrible has happened! Someone has fallen into the water!"

It was quite close to the small river at the edge of the village, and as soon as everyone heard about it, they rushed over to help.

Someone in the crowd shouted, "It looks like Su Ping'an and a woman have both fallen into the river!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao's legs went weak with fright. She remembered that Su Ping'an was a complete landlubber and couldn't swim at all, so how did he end up in the water?

It was almost dusk, and the light was poor. Everyone grabbed torches and rushed over to rescue people. Su Xiaoxiao followed the crowd to the riverbank.

Su Ping'an's coat and shoes were lying on the riverbank. In the river, two people were struggling, one of whom was Su Ping'an. He seemed to be drowning. There was a woman next to him. They had sunk so deep that their heads were no longer visible.

Some villagers who could swim quickly jumped into the river to rescue him. At this critical moment, if they didn't go in, Su Ping'an would sink into the river and never come out again.

Su Xiaoxiao was very worried on the shore, but she couldn't swim. If she could, that would be great; she would jump into the river to save the person immediately.
