Chapter 38 Thirty-eight, there was an opportunity in front of you

Lanyun received a verbal notification from the head of the department that she was going to replace Zhang Li as a visiting scholar in the United States for a period of one year.Lan Yun refused without even thinking about it, and her attitude was so straightforward that even the head of the department couldn't believe it. The head of the department said: "Lanyun, think about it again. I know you are preparing for the doctorate exam, but this year is really not a delay, it's a rare opportunity. You can wait for the doctorate exam when you come back, besides, you have this year's experience , you can choose from a wider range.”

Lan Yun smiled and said, "Director, I know I'm wasting the opportunity, but I really can't go. You can give this opportunity to other teachers! Thank you very much." The head of the department was a little strange: "Can't go? Why should I?" Lanyun said generously: "The children in the family are too young. I will leave for a year, and my wife can't handle it alone." The old man sighed and said, "Lanyun, the last time you asked me for help in our kindergarten, I reminded you that this child is not yours after all, I thought it would be the best of humanity for you to contact a kindergarten. Now you Do you really want to sacrifice for this non-relative child? Why can't you take this opportunity to put him in grandma's house for a year? It's not a problem if it continues like this!"

Lan Yun said calmly: "Director, when I asked you to go to our school's kindergarten, I thought about it. I have to raise this child. Now that the child is called mother, I have to take on the responsibility of mother. The child has just gotten to know each other in the past six months. With the environment in Beijing, he will go to primary school next year. He really can’t leave me at this time.” The head of the department felt that if he said anything more, he meant to interfere in other people's private life.But he still felt sorry for Lan Yun from the bottom of his heart, and he thought of one last solution for her: "Look, can your parents help you for a year?"

Lan Yun's face was slightly bitter, and she said, "Director, I'm not going to hide it from you. Ever since my parents found out about my lover's past, they still feel awkward. It's been half a year, they know that the child is at our house, but they never I don’t take the initiative to mention it. I usually go to see them alone. I know that it will take time for them to accept this matter. I don’t force it. I can’t ask others to accept this matter like me, let alone my parents So, I never thought of asking them for help. If it was my own child, my parents would definitely stand up to support me and help me take care of the child this year. But not now, I can’t ask them This kind of request. I can't bear it."

The head of the department had no choice but to sigh again, and said, "Okay then. If that's the case, I'll try again among other teachers. But it doesn't matter, there will be opportunities like this basically every year. When the child goes to school, I hope you can think about it." Lanyun smiled and said, "Thank you, the head of the department. When I finish my Ph.D. and my children are older, I will come and fight for you." After leaving the department head's office, Lan Yun was going to eat in the cafeteria.There is a bulletin board on the only way between the cafeteria and the teaching building.This bulletin board belongs to the teacher. Any announcements and requirements from the school will be posted here in addition to being communicated at meetings at all levels.The bulletin boards for students are all downstairs in their dormitories, and they usually post information about transfers, renting, recruitment, etc.; the teachers post here are more serious, what should be reimbursed for medical expenses? Workers should pay property heating fees and so on.Now it was almost the end of the year, and the admission notice of the affiliated elementary school was posted on the bulletin board.Every time Lanyun came here, she just glanced quickly with her eyes, basically there was nothing related to herself.But this time it was different. As soon as Lan Yun saw the announcement for elementary school admissions, she quickly took out her notebook from her bag and copied it.

Because the current university-affiliated primary school is well-known and the faculty is really strong, the school is overwhelmed every year and keeps expanding its enrollment.Last year, 8 classes were recruited in the first grade, and 12 classes have to be recruited this year, which is still not enough to meet the requirements.Lanyun saw a post from the teacher of the attached primary school on the forum, saying, "Every summer vacation, we first dig the wall."Before the summer vacation, the school had to find ways to expand the classroom area on the existing site. If there was no room for expansion, the area of ​​the teacher's office had to be reduced.I wish there were 20 people in an office that should have 10 people.

In the past, these news had nothing to do with Lanyun, but now Lanyun doesn't care if he wants to.Schools are under a lot of pressure to recruit students, but first of all, they still have to guarantee the children of their teachers, but there is one thing, even for the children of teachers, the conditions are becoming more and more stringent.In the first two years, as long as one of the grandparents, grandparents, or even uncles is a faculty member of the university, the children of this family will be sent in continuously.It's not good now, I heard that the third generation is not good, it can only be the immediate children of the current university teachers.Lan Yun had heard about these requests for a long time, but today they posted them in black and white, so I really have to take a closer look, otherwise, if I miss them, it will delay Lele.

Lanyun was fairly close to the bulletin board, and took a small notebook to copy line by line.Copying a line, Lanyun quickly checked Lele's standards in her heart.Beijing household registration, no problem, already in; date of birth, no problem, in line with the regulations for going to school next year; immediate children?Thinking about it, Lan Yun should count; only one per household?Lanyun thought, that's okay, this year it's just the last one!However, there is another one, which is "permanent single quota".What does it mean?Lanyun studied carefully for more than 20 minutes, and finally figured it out. It turns out that if your family has one child this year, but two years later you have a second child, there is only one quota for those two children.Sorry for the second child, even if it is in line with the policy, this school will not accept it!

After Lan Yun finished writing this sentence, she froze there.I can sacrifice for Lele and not go to the United States, but if Lan Yun also gave birth to a child, the child's schooling will be a big problem.Thinking of how Jian Ning went to the kindergarten for Shuai Shuai in the past, and remembering that the kindergarten also had the same rules, Lan Yun's heart was chilled. When Yan Daoming returned home, the cautiousness that had lasted for half a year had already relaxed.It is very natural for him to return home now, and the guilt that his son felt when he was exposed has basically disappeared.When he came back in the evening, he resumed his former enjoyment: order a dish from his wife and have a comfortable meal.Occasionally, he goes home early because Lan Yun has evening classes, and he has to pick up Lele from the kindergarten.Even so, when Lanyun leaves in the afternoon, she will prepare the rice. The rice cooker will be placed on the heat preservation section, and the dishes will be covered in the pot. When the two of them come home, they will still eat ready-made meals.

But when he came back tonight, Yan Daoming didn't smell the delicious aroma of vegetables while walking in the corridor.When he entered the house, his heart tensed immediately, the room was very quiet, and the tension that had disappeared for half a year suddenly returned.He was just about to call out "wife, I'm back", when he saw Lele running out when the door rang, looked at him timidly, and called him "Dad".Yan Daoming swallowed the greeting, and instead asked Lele in a low voice: "Where's Mom?" Lele pointed to their bedroom and said, "Mom let me watch TV by myself."

Yan Daoming was a little strange, his first reaction was that Lan Yun was sick.He hurriedly changed his shoes and entered the room, threw his bag on the sofa in the living room, and opened the door into the bedroom in three steps.Lanyun was tirelessly searching for something on the school's internal website. She had to check to see if the teachers in the past had a situation like hers, and if so, how they solved it.Now is the time for elementary school admissions to start, and the hot topics of discussion on the Internet are all about children.Lanyun looked at the parents' posts seriously, and didn't even notice that Yan Daoming had already entered.She picked up Lele and came back without saying a word on the way.The sensitive Lele didn't say a word when she saw Lan Yun's serious face, but carefully peeked at Lan Yun's expression.Back home, Lanyun asked Lele to watch TV by herself.Said that mother has something to do, so be good and don't make noise.Lele went to watch "Pleasant Goat". Fortunately, he had already had dinner in the kindergarten, so Lele was not hungry anymore. After entering the room, Yan Daoming asked anxiously, "What's the matter, wife? Are you feeling unwell?" Lan Yun was not mentally prepared, didn't know that Yan Daoming had come in, and Yan Daoming's voice was two degrees higher than normal, Lan Yun was startled and shuddered.Yan Daoming saw it, and hurriedly put his hand on Hulu's wife's back, and said, "Surprised you! Are you okay?" Only then did Lanyun turn her head and look at Yan Daoming. The shock in her heart turned into anger in an instant in front of this man. She had never attacked Yan Daoming so loudly before: "What are you doing? Don't you need to say hello when you enter the house? Know me Is it still so loud in the house?" Yan Daoming was frightened by Lan Yun's aggressiveness.After being married for several years, Lanyun has never spoken to him in this tone.It should be said that Lan Yun had never talked to anyone like this.Yan Daoming didn't know what was going on for a moment, he quickly searched for possible reasons in his mind.What did you do?What did Lele do?After two seconds of having a seizure, Lan Yun also immediately realized her gaffe.She caught her breath and said, "I'm sorry. But you really scared me." Yan Daoming supported Lan Yun's shoulders and said "It's okay", and said, "Is there something wrong? What's wrong?" Lan Yun didn't know where to start, she just felt upset, she turned her eyes away from Yan Daoming's gaze, and when she shook her head, she caught a glimpse of the watch hanging on the wall, Lan Yun immediately stood up and said: " It's past 6 o'clock! I haven't cooked yet!" Yan Daoming quickly pressed down on Lan Yun, and said, "Forget it, let's not do it today. Lele doesn't eat either. What do you want to eat? I'll go to the restaurant downstairs and ask for some dishes." Lan Yun sat back on the chair again and said, "Then you can do whatever you want. I really don't have any appetite today." In the evening, Yan Daoming saw that Lanyun was still refusing to sleep, and had been reading posts on the Internet with good eyesight.Yan Daoming waited until it was almost 11 o'clock, and he couldn't wait any longer, so he couldn't help asking Lan Yun: "Is there something wrong? Just say something, don't carry it alone." Lan Yun's eyes were a little red, Yan Daoming The more Yan Daoming asked, the more aggrieved Lan Yun became. At the end of the question, Yan Daoming almost became anxious, and Lan Yun said: "Our elementary school has started to register, and Lele will go to school next year, so he has to register this week. " Yan Daoming didn't understand what this matter had to do with Lan Yun's emotions, so he said, "Ah! Alright, then let's report it." Lan Yun said: "Our attached primary school has a rule that a teacher can only have one child in his family, and it must be a direct child." Yan Daoming understood a little bit, his Lele didn't seem to be considered as Blue Yun's "direct lineage".Lanyun went on to say: "I checked online, and a family with two children can only take one, except for twins. If Lele does, then I will..." Yan Daoming understood everything. Lele's arrival not only deprived Lanyun of her right to become a mother this year, but also deprived her of her and her children's right to enjoy high-quality educational resources in the future.At this moment, Yan Daoming suddenly felt a little regretful, why he was made to submit by his ex-wife, it was his own decision to make the innocent Lanyun even more innocent.Yan Daoming felt that it was time to make a decision. He thought about it and said to Lan Yun, "Honey, we have two options. One is to go to another elementary school, even if you pay a little money; Le sent him back to Xi'an and let him go to school in Xi'an. Although Xi'an is not as good as Beijing, it is also a big city. Didn't I just come from Xi'an? Going to middle school and university in Xi'an is also good. Which of these two methods do you think is better? "Lanyun was a little surprised, she didn't expect Yan Daoming to say that. Yan Daoming continued: "wife, I owe you all my life. I know you are kind and love me, but you still surprised me in the past six months. To be honest, I didn't expect you to be so kind to Lele , being so tolerant to me, you didn't do this on purpose to please anyone, it was your sincerity. Just for this, I have been good to you all my life. I know, you want a child. Because I hid Lele before, I always I dare not mention this to you; now that you know everything and have done everything for me, I will definitely make your wish come true. Believe me, wife, we will have our own children. You have sacrificed for Lele After so much, now is the time for Lele and I to do something. You can do whatever you say. In fact, there is nothing wrong with sending Lele back, so that if you get pregnant recently, you can let your mother Come here to take care of you. When we have a child, the relationship between my parents and I can ease. I know that you have been wronged for more than half a year, and we are sorry for being caught between your parents and us. you." Lanyun looked at Lele's photo on the computer and listened to Yan Daoming's words, tears fell like thunderbolts.
