Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 885: The Decision

They had agreed that Gu Lingling would come to the base to teach Chinese to the two children three days later, but when she arrived, she was stunned.

How did the agreed two people turn into this many?

She quickly counted; there were probably a dozen or so, all standing at the entrance of the building waiting for her. There were boys and girls, all looking at her with admiration.

Gu Lingling, "..."

The minister's wife felt quite embarrassed, but this wasn't something their two families had announced.

They were being selfish. Gu Lingling was supposed to tutor only their two families' children, so all the attention would naturally be on them, and both families' children were at about the same level.

But now, dealing with more than a dozen kids of varying levels would definitely hold their kids back. So even if they were foolish, they wouldn't have spread this around.

Gu Lingling probably wouldn't say anything either.

That leaves Jiang Hong as the only one who knew about this.

The political commissar's wife and the minister's wife were furious with Jiang Hong and naturally couldn't help but grumble to their husbands when they got home.

The men, although they said it was good for the children to study together, because having more base children get into college would be great, in their hearts, didn't they all hope that their own child would be the one to succeed?

Besides, out of those dozen or so kids, there were a couple who weren't doing well academically. Could such kids get into college?

Isn't that just a joke?

Their impression of Jiang Jiuming worsened.

How is he teaching the kids?

Why can't he keep his mouth shut?

What? He joined the military?

Alright, if her father can't handle it properly, let the military do it and manage the kids well.

Thus, Jiang Hong thought she had slyly set a trap for Gu Lingling, expecting that when Gu Lingling saw so many people wanting her tutoring, she would be quite angry.

What would she do when angry?

Of course, she'd refuse, which would be delightful, for she would have offended so many people for no reason.

Jiang Hong absolutely didn't expect Gu Lingling's response because with so many people, if she tutored them, it would be frustrating.

If it were her, she definitely wouldn't do it.

This is when the gap between a top student and a bottom student becomes apparent.

"It's okay. This is actually nice," Gu Lingling smiled. "But with so many people, what should we do about the venue?"

Originally, with just two kids, anyone's house would do. She could give a lecture and go over the key points.

But now, with more than a dozen, it's hard to find a suitable place.

"I'll figure something out," said the minister's wife and then went home to call her husband.

Since he was in charge of logistics, maybe he could find a place for the kids, even if it meant borrowing a conference room at the base.

With so many kids studying, it's a good thing that must be supported. So, the logistics minister made arrangements, and there happened to be a small conference room in the base auditorium that could be used. The environment was nice, and there was a blackboard for the teacher to write on.

After this arrangement, even more people came to know.

So, even those about to enter sophomore year and those who didn't do well in this year's college entrance exam and wanted to retake it next year joined in.

The spacious small conference room was packed full.

Gu Lingling's heart had never been so excited.

These were the children of the military compound. Their fathers or mothers were shedding blood and sweat for the nation's development. Gu Lingling felt she was doing something very meaningful.

At the same time, she made a significant decision.

Originally, she planned only to tutor those two, but seeing this group of adorable peers, about the same age as her, with their hunger and pursuit of knowledge.

Gu Lingling thought, perhaps this summer, she had found something to do.
