Chapter 81 Recommending a Talent to You

Zhang Xin came after dinner, around seven o'clock.

When he heard the knock on the door, Feng Yu went to open it.

Jiang Ning didn't sit down either. He also stood up and went to greet the door.

Zhang Xin was carrying a bag of fruits, including bananas, pineapples and so on.

These are not found in the orchards on the farm.

Jiang Ning glanced at it and nodded secretly.

It’s not good to go empty-handed, so buying some fruits is just right.

Feng Yu asked the person to sit down on the sofa and made tea for him.

Feng Xue also came out to greet everyone and sat aside.

She also knew that Zhang Xin had always taken good care of Feng Yu at school. Although Feng Yu no longer needed her care now, last year when Feng Yu just started working and was completely in the dark, Zhang Xin took good care of her. Feng Xue also knew this.

If it were someone else, she wouldn't come out.

We drank tea and chatted for a while, and it seemed that Zhang Xin was a little embarrassed to start talking.

Jiang Ning didn't ask proactively: "Sister Zhang, are you going to arrange for your nephew to enroll in school?"

Zhang Xin nodded. "Yes, my eldest brother and sister-in-law have been working outside, and their child is also studying in another province. They are transferring back this year. I also know the principal of No. 1 Middle School. I thought it shouldn't be a big deal, but it turned out to be so difficult. I really have no other choice, so I want to ask you for help. I don't know if it will bother you."

Jiang Ning asked, "Your husband should be able to handle it, right?"

Zhang Xin sighed slightly and said, "You know his deputy director. He has no real power. He is just a worker. The deputy director of the park has no face in the county. He has no say in some matters."

Jiang Ning did not refuse and said, "I'll ask for you."

Zhang Xin nodded, a little nervous.

Jiang Ning took the phone and called Lao Yang: "Old comrade."

Lao Yang asked, "What's the matter, boss?"

Jiang Ning said, "A friend's nephew wants to transfer back to No. 1 Middle School from another place. Can you ask him if it's okay?"

Lao Yang said, "This is a small matter. I'll call the Education Commission. Wait a moment."

Jiang Ning agreed, hung up the phone, and said to Zhang Xin, "Old comrade, call the Education Commission, wait a moment."

Zhang Xin said, "I'm really sorry to bother you!"

Jiang Ning laughed: "Sister Zhang, you are being too polite!"

Zhang Xin smiled and said, "This is indeed quite troublesome."

Jiang Ning waved his hand and said, "We have known each other for a long time. I was able to find a wife thanks to the help of Sister Zhang. When I was applying for disability assessment before, I had no one to turn to, and it was your family's Old Shen who helped me a lot. Feng Yu and I are getting married at the end of the year, and I plan to ask Sister Zhang to be the matchmaker. Don't say these polite words. Just let me know if you need my help."

Zhang Xin was a little moved and her eyes turned red.

Apparently, he had to pay a lot of fees recently in order to transfer his nephew to another school.

Jiang Ning could also understand. He still remembered vividly the embarrassing moment at his second uncle's house when he was arranging a disability assessment for Feng Xue. Every time he thought about it, he felt that life was difficult, so he always remembered Zhang Xin's kindness.

If it weren't for Zhang Xin's help, he didn't know whether he could have gotten the disability assessment done.

Chatted for a few words.

Lao Yang called quickly and said, "I've told the Education Commission. Please send someone over tomorrow and I'll deliver it."

Jiang Ning said, "Come to Jixiang Community tomorrow morning and I will bring the person over."

Lao Yang agreed.

Jiang Ning hung up the phone and said to Zhang Xin, "The old comrade has agreed that you will send the person to our community tomorrow morning, and comrade Yang will come tomorrow morning and send the person to school."

Zhang Xin was truly touched. She had been rejected so many times in recent days when she tried to get this done.

Only you know the grievances and sadness in it.

If I had known this would be the result, why would I send him this way?

Just ask Jiang Ning for help.

I expressed my gratitude again and again.

Zhang Xin hesitated for a while, then took out a card from her pocket, handed it to Feng Yu, and said, "I applied for a shopping card to give as a gift, but I went there several times but never got in. It's useless for me to keep it, so you can use it to buy something..."

Feng Yu pushed it back quickly: "How can this be possible? I can't accept it."

Zhang Xin said, "Don't be polite. They won't refund the money after I applied for the card. I still have several cards, and I can't spend them all. You can keep this one and use it. Just consider it as a favor to me. If you don't accept it, I'll be so embarrassed..."

Feng Yu was not willing to accept it as she had only been working for a year.

I'm not surprised by this kind of thing.

Still want to refuse.

Jiang Ning spoke up: "Please accept it and don't embarrass Sister Zhang."

"This……"

Feng Yu was a little confused and looked over with suspicion.

Jiang Ning gave her a look.

Feng Yu hesitated for a moment, then accepted the card and waited until Zhang Xin left.

Feng Yucai asked Jiang Ning: "What did you mean just now? Why can't I take this card?"

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Being rejected is very embarrassing. You have never given anyone a gift, so you don't understand how difficult it is. Keep the card and give her something of equal value later, maybe gold jewelry, which can be converted into cash."

Feng Yu nodded, looked at the card and said, "A five thousand yuan shopping card, do you need to give so much for transferring to another school?"

Jiang Ning laughed at her: "You are a teacher, and you are asking me?"

Feng Yu said: "I have never accepted any gifts, how would I know?"

Jiang Ning said, "Keep the card. Go to the supermarket later to see what you can buy and spend it!"

Feng Yu hummed, and then became curious: "Are you saying that this card was really issued by Sister Zhang Xin as a gift to someone? It couldn't be issued specifically for me, right? If it was issued specifically for me, I would be so embarrassed."

Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. School has officially started. If she had come to me for help directly, she wouldn't have waited until now. She must have really come to me because she had no other choice. She said she went in several times but couldn't get in, so it must be true."

Feng Yu was relieved and said, "Sister Zhang Xin's life is not easy. She is from the countryside and has two brothers, but neither of them went to school and worked all the time. She was the only one who went to school and worked for twelve years. She was promoted to associate professor through her own efforts and is also a famous teacher at the municipal level. She teaches well and is very responsible to her students. She also holds a lot of positions and does a lot of work. She is much busier than me, but every time she is promoted, it is not her turn. Some people who don't teach well, flatter and are rarely seen all day long have become leaders, but Sister Zhang Xin is holding a bunch of useless and empty positions and doing odd jobs for others. What is going on?"

Jiang Ning said, "How about I give Boss Lu a call and ask him to take a closer look at the work style of the education system?"

Feng Yu thought he was joking, so he said happily: "Then you fight me."

Jiang Ning took the phone and called: "Boss Lu."

Lu Jingwei asked: "What's the matter?"

Feng Yu was startled when he heard the call was connected.

Why is this guy really hitting?

Looking at him nervously.

Jiang Ning said, "I have something to report to you."

Lu Jingwei asked: "What's the problem?"

Jiang Ning said, "As for the students' schooling, many people in Bei'an are working outside now, and their children are also going to school outside. In the past two years, it has been difficult to find a job, so many people in Bei'an have returned to their hometowns, but when they come back, it is a big problem for their children to go to school. Many parents have pig heads on their backs but don't know where to send them, so they come to me for help. Shouldn't you take care of it?"

Lu Jingwei said: "I understand."

Jiang Ning added: "Let me recommend a talent to you."

Lu Jingwei was surprised: "Recommend me some talent?"

Jiang Ning said, "Yes, there is a female teacher named Zhang Xin in Chengguan School. She introduced Feng Yu and I to each other. The female teacher is a good person. She came from the countryside. Not only is she a good teacher, but she is also very responsible to her students. She has worked for twelve years and has been promoted to associate professor through her own efforts. She is also a famous teacher at the municipal level. However, she has never been promoted. Those who flatter and do not do their jobs have become her leaders one by one. Do you think such a person can teach good students? If the school can spend more energy and attention on student education, I would not have run to Africa to work for my life after graduating from high school..."

Lu Jingwei: “…”

Jiang Ning complained for a long time before finally saying, "I'm just giving you some advice, not trying to help you get a backdoor. If I really want to help you get something done through the backdoor, I won't call you. That's it!"

Lu Jingwei paused and said, "I understand."

hang up the phone.

Feng Yu let out a long sigh: "Why are you really hitting me?"

Jiang Ning said: "What else, do you think I'm joking?"

Feng Yu said: "No, how can you tell Boss Lu about this kind of thing!"

Jiang Ning didn't care at all: "What's wrong with me saying it? I don't ask him to do things for me, and I don't want him to go against my principles for official matters. But it's okay to ask him about this kind of personal matters. As a parent official, he is responsible for these matters. What's wrong with me giving him some suggestions? The problems I mentioned are not made up. Every year, many parents have nowhere to turn to for help when their children transfer to other schools."

Feng Yu asked, "Boss Lu will take care of it, right?"

Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "That should be the case. Lu Jingwei is different from other bureaucrats. Look at what he has done since he came to Bei'an. Every one of them offends people, but is good for the people."

Feng Yu nodded: "Boss Lu is indeed different."

……

On the other side, Zhang Xin also returned home.

Shen Liming has returned and is watching the children do their homework.

When I saw my wife come in, I didn't rush to ask.

Wait for Zhang Xin to change her shoes and sit down on the sofa.

Shen Liming then asked, "Will Jiang Ning help?"

Zhang Xin nodded and said, "It has been agreed. It will be delivered tomorrow morning."

Shen Liming said: "That's good."

Zhang Xin sighed: "It's hard to ask others to do things for you!"

Shen Liming said: "It's not easy to ask someone to do something for you. Isn't it easy for Jiang Ning to do that?"

Zhang Xin said, "That's not the case. Jiang Ning is quite easy to talk to. He called in front of me. The old comrade from his farm called the Education Commission directly. I just feel that I went to give gifts several times before, but I couldn't even get in. It's hard to think about it. Farmers have it so hard. When will the problem of going to school be solved?"

Shen Liming said: "It's fine once it's done."

Zhang Xin asked, "How did you get your job done?"

Shen Liming said: "We have already talked, it shouldn't take too long."
