Saturday morning was sunny and bright.
Lu Qian got up early, washed up, washed his hair, applied face cream, and glanced at himself in the mirror.
"Great, very energetic!"
After eating two steamed buns and an egg at a roadside breakfast shop, I headed to the place I had arranged to meet Xu Nuowen.
Lu Qian thought of some solutions last night, but ultimately gave up.
Concrete situation, specific analysis.
Before long, Lu Qian arrived at Tsinghua Garden Community.
Xu Nuowen stood at the crossroads, occasionally tiptoeing to look around. Fan Siwen and Luo Shishi were beside her, waiting together.
Fan Siwen was the first to see Lu Qian and kept waving to him.
However, it wasn't Lu Qian who arrived first; instead, three taxis did.
...
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we won't take the car," Xu Nuowen apologized repeatedly.
Fan Siwen, standing to the side, was digging her toes into the ground, clearly embarrassed. Luo Shishi, hiding behind her, was laughing so hard she could barely breathe.
The taxi driver left, grumbling and cursing.
Lu Qian walked over, suppressing his laughter so hard he turned into a Faker meme.
Fan Siwen was exasperated. "Teacher, stop laughing. Are you really sure?"
"Just a little tidbit: anyone who makes guarantees before you've even met with you is probably unreliable," Lu Qian said. "By the way, what brings you two here too?"
"Stay with Nuowen. If you can't persuade him, teacher, we'll go and try to talk to him again," Luo Shishi explained.
Lu Qian gave a thumbs up, "The three golden sisters."
"Let's go, teacher, I'll take you inside." Xu Nuowen led the way.
After taking two steps, Lu Qian stopped.
"Wait me a moment."
He walked into the supermarket next door and said, "Boss, a bottle of Erguotou and some peanuts, please."
The three girls looked puzzled.
"Teacher, what are you doing?"
Lu Qian looked inscrutable. "A man's weapon for chatting."
Soon, the four arrived at Xu Nuowen's house.
"Teacher, have I opened the door?" Xu Nuowen asked tentatively.
She's a little nervous about the door that she opens and closes every day.
"open!"
...
On the other side of the door.
Xu Qinglin and Wen Yue sat on the sofa in silence, both feeling quite nervous.
The teacher came for a home visit, but I don't know why.
Could it be that Nuowen angered the new homeroom teacher?
But Norman has always been very well-behaved.
The couple were lost in thought.
The sound of a key turning in the lock came from outside the door, and Xu Nuowen opened the door and brought Lu Qian in.
"Teacher Lu." The couple immediately stood up and went to greet him.
Although they felt that Lu Qian was very young, it did not diminish their respect for their teacher.
Lu Qian also smiled and said, "Hello, I am Xu Nuowen's homeroom teacher and math teacher."
"Hello, Teacher Lu, come in, come in quickly." Xu Qinglin said with a warm smile.
Lu Qian put on the shoe covers he had brought, revealing Fan Siwen and Luo Shishi behind him.
The two parents clearly knew them.
"Wenwen and Shishi are here too. Let's go inside with Nuowen first, and then we'll talk to Teacher Lu."
The three girls went into the bedroom with a thud, leaving the door a crack so they could listen in.
Lu Qian sat opposite Xu Qinglin and Wen Yue, and quickly glanced at the two of them.
Xu Qinglin has a few fine lines between his eyebrows, which are marks left by frowning, but they are not deep, indicating that he has only started to frown frequently in recent years.
His fingers and nails were clean and tidy. He didn't do manual labor and didn't smoke often. However, Xu Nuowen said that his father occasionally smelled of smoke, either from smoking outside or from secondhand smoke.
Wen Yue also had some fine lines on her forehead, and her overall appearance was quite kind. She was sitting very close to Xu Qinglin.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lu Qian began to guide the conversation.
"The reason for this home visit is to discuss Xu Nuowen's academic progress."
Upon hearing Lu Qian say this, Xu Qinglin and Wen Yue immediately became nervous.
In the minds of most parents, academic performance is the most important thing for their children.
"Don't be nervous, Xu Nuowen's grades are improving."
"These are her scores from the last few quizzes. She's made significant progress, especially in biology, where she got a perfect score. She's also very well-behaved at school; you can tell she has a good family upbringing."
The couple visibly relaxed, and their expressions brightened with joy.
Improving grades are the best gift that students of this age can give their parents.
Not to mention that the teacher even praised his own child.
Lu Qian continued, "However, Xu Nuowen's condition has been somewhat unstable lately; he always seems to have something on his mind."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I took the initiative to talk to Xu Nuowen, and she hesitated for a long time before telling me that you two might be under some pressure lately."
She didn't know what to do with her child, so she hasn't been doing well lately. I thought I'd come and find out what was going on.
At this point, Xu Qinglin and Wen Yue seemed to understand something and both fell silent.
Lu Qian was not in a hurry and waited quietly.
After a long silence, Xu Qinglin sighed, "Teacher Lu, sigh..."
"Actually, it's nothing. I just lost a lot of money in business a few years ago. It's not a big deal."
Wen Yue spoke up at this moment, "What do you mean by 'losing a lot of money'? Wasn't that being scammed? Didn't I tell you long ago not to trust him? You insisted on believing him!"
"How do I know he's lying to me! He's been in business for so many years!" Xu Qinglin couldn't help but retort, but he lacked confidence and couldn't think of any more words to say.
"So what if they cheated you? Do you really expect them to return the money? They're always acting like that."
They started arguing again after only a few words.
"Please calm down, both of you."
Lu Qian spoke up to offer advice, subconsciously activating his [Teacher's Authority] skill.
The next second, the two of them fell silent, still fuming.
Huh, it actually works?
That makes things much easier.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Qian said, "How about this, sister-in-law, let me talk to Brother Xu alone first."
Wen Yue nodded, got up, and went to another bedroom.
"Xu Nuowen, go keep your mother company!"
Lu Qian had noticed the three little ones eavesdropping long ago.
The bedroom door opened, and the three little ones gave an embarrassed smile and slipped inside.
Lu Qian sat down next to Xu Qinglin and took out the Erguotou liquor and peanuts he had bought downstairs.
"Brother Xu, we're all men, let's not beat around the bush."
"I'll have a couple of sips with you first."
