Chapter 119 Rock Club

Parents will quickly form their own small circles, even if it's just for a few hours.

When visiting the school, the parents of Class 8 were clearly divided into three or four circles.

Among them, the circle headed by Li Guohong has the largest lineup.

A dozen parents enthusiastically surrounded Li Guohong, praising him in every way and asking him for advice on how to educate their children.

Li Guohong knew his own worth, and he had no idea how Li Luo suddenly became so powerful, so he could only repeat some repetitive words over and over again.

But even so, in the eyes of other parents, whatever Li Guohong said was the golden rule and they had to study hard with a serious attitude.

It's the same principle, everyone has actually heard and seen it countless times, it's just that the person saying it is different, and the effect is completely different.

"My daughter Xiuxiu often mentions our class monitor at home, saying that when she was the monitor, she always thought she had done a good job." Hua Xiuxiu's parent said, "But after watching Li Luo become the monitor, she realized that she still has a lot to learn."

"Our child is similar," said Xu Yinghuan's parents. "He often praises the class monitor at home for being so good. Now I finally see what he is like."

"That's right." Jin Yuting's parents couldn't help but say, "You don't know, our Tingting was in the same class with Li Luo in junior high school."

"At that time, Li Luo's academic performance was quite average. But guess what? Li Luo made a stunning debut in the high school entrance exam, ranking 86th in the district!"

"This time he ranked 27th in our Affiliated No. Middle School. I can only say that this boy was a little naughty and playful when he was younger, but once the enthusiasm for learning came up, it was really unstoppable."

It was really hard for Li Guohong not to laugh in such an atmosphere. He could only try his best to control his smile so as not to become too proud and maintain modesty and decorum.

Apart from this central circle, the rest of the parents of Class 8 consist of several small groups.

Some parents are simply introverted and just followed Hua Xiuxiu who was introducing the school in front. There were about ten of them.

Some parents don’t like to flatter others, so they just walk beside them, chat casually occasionally, and mainly just look around.

There are also people like Yuan Wanqing who are independent and walk alone, looking at the school carefully. After all, this is her first time to come to the No. 1 Affiliated Middle School. Even at the beginning of the school year, Yan Zhusheng came alone to report.

People like Zhang Xuefen simply can't stand Li Guohong's smug look.

She felt bad when she thought about the fact that Li Luo ranked 27th in the whole school and her son only ranked around th.

When they were in junior high school, Li Luo was far inferior to Wei Chun.

Every Chinese New Year when relatives visit each other, Zhang Xuefen often teases Lin Xiuhong about this matter.

Fortunately, it was Li Guohong who came to the parent-teacher meeting for Li Luo today, otherwise Zhang Xuefen could imagine the look on Lin Xiuhong's face in front of her.

It’s really painful to think about it.

However, seeing Li Guohong having fun over there, Zhang Xuefen couldn't help but move closer.

When everyone was tired of praising and began to appreciate the school scenery seriously, Zhang Xuefen took the opportunity to approach Li Guohong and said casually:

"Li Guohong, I heard that you bought a school district house nearby, right? You spent a lot of money on it?"

Li Guohong was in a good mood at first, but when he heard Zhang Xuefen suddenly say this, he frowned and said, "Yes, this will make it more convenient for the children to go to school, which is good."

He didn't know why Zhang Xuefen kept bringing up this matter. It was obvious that Zhang Xuefen had been chattering a lot when they just entered the school gate.

As expected, Zhang Xuefen said, "This is a nearly two million yuan expense. The pressure is not small. Your breakfast shop is hard work. You have to let Xiuhong take care of her health."

As expected, after hearing that Li Guohong's family opened a breakfast shop, some parents' eyes flickered and they looked a little strange.

People are always like this.

When someone is better than you in some aspect, it is of course okay to give them polite verbal compliments, but if you are better than them in another aspect, you will feel somewhat comforted.

The parents present all came from relatively good families.

Maybe in terms of income, it may not be much different from a breakfast shop.

But when you hear that a breakfast shop is hard work, the level of it suddenly changes.

But at this moment, Shao Heqi's father suddenly looked at Li Guohong with interest and asked curiously: "Did you hear any rumors about buying a house nearby?"

"Hmm?" Li Guohong was a little depressed because of Zhang Xuefen's words. When he heard what Shao Heqi's father asked, he was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean by the wind?"

"I didn't dare to say it before, but now..." Shao Heqi's father laughed, "The city recently issued a draft plan for the ninth phase of the Yuhang City subway. It is estimated that the subway line will be extended in our Yinjiang District."

"I heard rumors before, so I bought a house near here last year."

"After all, the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School has dormitories. I was thinking that if your family didn't buy the house in full, you wouldn't be eyeing a house nearby."

Li Guohong looked at the other person in surprise and couldn't help asking, "Excuse me, which classmate's parent are you?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Shao Heqi's father stretched out his hand to shake his hand, and laughed, "I am Shao Heqi's father. Our children were in the same class in junior high school."

"Yes, yes, yes, I remember it now, I have an impression!" Li Guohong remembered it instantly after being reminded. During the previous summer vacation, Li Luo urged them to buy a house, saying that there was news about Shao Heqi's father.

At the moment, it seems that the credibility of this news is quite high!

Thinking of this, Li Guohong smiled and held the other person's hand tightly, and couldn't help but say: "Oh, we also heard a little bit of rumors. Anyway, we have to buy a house for the children, so we thought of giving it a try."

Listening to the conversation between the two parents, the other parents immediately forgot about the breakfast shop and joined in the topic.

Shao Heqi's father was not worried about the news spreading.

After all, Yuhang City has indeed issued specific documents, but it is still in the draft proposal stage and has not been fully implemented.

But it is also a very likely direction.

According to his estimation, the news will be confirmed by the end of this year at the earliest and the middle of next year at the latest.

Anyway, their family has already bought the house they want, so they don’t mind doing a favor for others.

If more people come to buy houses, the housing prices may rise faster.

As a result, the discussion here became more and more heated, so much so that Zhang Xuefen was left aside, looking confused.

How did it become a real estate discussion meeting?
The key point is, is there really going to be a subway near the No. 1 Middle School?
Zhang Xuefen looked unhappy.

Regardless of what Li Guohong's family is like, if this news is true, Zhang Xuefen's family currently has little money.

After Wei Dongrong raised funds, the real estate project he had on hand had already started construction in full swing.

Where is the spare money to invest in a house?

Fortunately, such casual chatting only lasted for a short while. When the tour process entered the visit of club activities, the parents' attention was gradually drawn back.

Whenever I go to a club, there are basically parents who can see their children, so I smile and share with the parents next to me.

When Zhang Xuefen followed him to the calligraphy club, she saw her son Wei Chun writing at his desk with a serious look on his face.

Obviously she should show off at this time, but for some reason, she got angry when she saw Wei Chun.

Why can’t her son try harder and rank 27th in the school to make her proud?
After all, it’s still not working hard enough!

I was still hesitating before whether to enroll Wei Chun in additional tutoring classes, but now it seems that I cannot save money.

With this in mind, Zhang Xuefen was considering stopping Wei Chun's weekend calligraphy classes, and then using Saturday night and Sunday morning to sign up her child for a few classes.

Wei Chun in the classroom was naturally unaware of this thought.

After he noticed his mother, he lowered his head even more and tried hard to write on the rice paper.

Only after the parents left did Wei Chun let out a long sigh and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

As time went by, all the club activities in the teaching building had been visited.

The parents came to the playground again and visited sports clubs such as the basketball club, table tennis club, and badminton club.

Watching their children unleash their energy on the playground, parents also feel a little younger.

When they crossed the playground and arrived at the gymnasium entrance, Hua Xiuxiu, who was walking in front, introduced with a smile:
"Next, it's our last stop of the day."

"In our school, there is also a club called the Rock Club. The students in it are good at different instruments and they work together seamlessly to form a campus band."

"Today, they have prepared for a long time and will bring a wonderful performance to all uncles and aunts."

"Oh, right."

Hua Xiuxiu said this and then interrupted with an exclusive news from Class 8, "There are five members in the rock club's band this time, and two of them are from our class."

When Li Guohong heard this, he was immediately moved.

The students of the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School are truly extraordinary.

This is not only about studying well, but also about having a wide range of interests and specialties.

In comparison, although their Li Luo's grades have improved, in terms of his specialties... well... I wonder if writing online articles counts as one?
But just when Li Guohong was thinking this, Hua Xiuxiu continued, "These two students, one is Yan Zhusheng, the sports committee member of our class, who will be in charge of the lead singer."

"The other one." Hua Xiuxiu looked at Li Guohong and said with a smile, "It's our squad leader Li Luo. He's in charge of the guitar part."

When these words came out, Li Guohong was stunned for a moment.

Yuan Wanqing, who was standing by, also raised her eyebrows at this time, and a hint of interest finally appeared on her face.
