My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

Chapter 126

For wealthy people, money and life can be equally ranked as the top priority.

However, most children growing up in their environments do not possess this ability.

Qianpu Middle School thoughtfully prepared a spring outing activity for students to address this issue.

The response has always been good, especially from the parents' side.

Although students complain, how could educators not let students grumble a bit? As long as students ultimately benefit, it's fine.

The school's philosophy for organizing this spring outing is that while they don't advocate for hardship education, their children should know what hardship looks like.

This spring outing is also a survival training exercise.

The school has long obtained support from students' families. How could parents not know what's best for their children? It's just that they're reluctant to discipline them themselves, letting the school play the bad guy.

After all, a little hardship doesn't hurt, as long as children can gain real skills from this survival training.

As long as children's absolute safety is guaranteed, without deaths or injuries, it doesn't matter how the school conducts the training.

Families fully cooperate with the school, not hindering its efforts, and absolutely not providing any help to the children.

Students from other first-year classes, without Shi Li's "reminder," were the first to seek help from their families. The result was a promise to pick them up soon, but even as the moon rose high, no one came.

When they called again, no one answered.

Thinking there might have been an accident on the way, they tried calling their parents and even private secretaries or housekeepers, but to no avail.

No one was a fool; everyone was in the same situation, which meant families wouldn't be providing help.

Some quick thinkers considered calling for ride-hailing services.

However, by the time they thought of it, it was already midnight, and there weren't many drivers available on the platform.

Even if there were drivers online, they wouldn't dare to accept the order.

It's now some ungodly hour in the early morning, someone wants to book a ride, and the destination is in the middle of nowhere. Drivers would be concerned for their own safety.

If it's not robbery, it might be a midnight ghost call. No matter how much money you offer, drivers wouldn't dare accept.

The more money offered, the more suspicious the situation seems. Do they think drivers have a death wish?

They fear having the chance to earn money but not living to spend it.

After struggling until dawn, the accompanying Village Chief yawned patiently and suggested, "Why don't you go to the accommodation to rest for a while?"

Everyone else was already tired, so they could only follow the Village Chief to see the so-called accommodation.

Upon arriving and seeing the shabby environment, these second-generation rich kids naturally couldn't accept it and caused another commotion.

The Village Chief explained that this was the room the school had booked for them, and he had no way to resolve this issue for everyone.

Until daybreak, this group still couldn't fall asleep.

After bringing them to the accommodation, the Village Chief didn't have the patience to continue accompanying them.

After all, he was getting on in years and needed to catch up on sleep.

After the Village Chief left, he didn't care how the children acted up.

When he signed the agreement with the school initially, the school had said that no matter how the students behaved, he didn't need to manage them, just ensure their safety and report to the school in a timely manner.

After daybreak, the naturally ambitious Qianpu students (excluding Class 1 of the first year) began contacting drivers or ride-hailing services again.

The result was predictable: the school had people guarding the entrance well. When ride-hailing cars approached, the school offered generous compensation for canceling the trip and made a note in their records.

These people waited and waited, watching as the ride-hailing drivers, after getting very close, suddenly drove further and further away, returning to Blue City under everyone's gaze.

One failure didn't mean much; everyone was still determined to continue fighting against the school to the end!

Compared to the struggles of other classes, the students of Class 1 of the first year seemed particularly leisurely and adaptable.

They managed to get through lunch and dinner, lying on the large communal kang bed covered with blankets, playing on their phones.

Although it was now dark, everyone usually didn't go to sleep until around eleven o'clock. Going to bed right after lunch seemed somewhat unrealistic.

However, when they picked up their phones, they found that whether watching videos or playing games, the network conditions here were poor.

Browsing on phones was too frustrating with such network conditions. Fortunately, someone had brought board games in their backpack, and not just one type (originally prepared for the spring outing, who could have imagined they'd end up playing board games in a rural mud-brick house).

Shi Li was thinking about whether to invite the boys to join them, as they were probably also suffering from wanting to use their phones but having no internet.

However, when Shi Li went to check, the boys were already playing games.

So Shi Li went back to tell everyone not to worry about the boys.

Song Ying was playing this game for the first time and didn't know anything, requiring Shi Li to teach her hands-on.

Fortunately, she learned quickly, mastering it before Shi Li, as the teacher, could show any impatience.

Although there was no internet on their phones, time flew by as a group gathered to play cards and gossip.

For this spring outing, everyone had packed many snacks suitable for picnics in their backpacks. Only the oddball Shi Li had brought a packet of rice seasoning.

Originally, upon seeing the poor conditions here, everyone thought they could save the snacks in their backpacks to improve their living conditions a bit, as they would be staying here for almost half a month.

However, tonight everyone wanted to play board games, and it felt uncomfortable not to have something to eat while playing.

The result of taking out the snacks to eat together was that only a small portion of a backpack full of snacks remained, which was originally meant to be saved.

After the tea party ended and everyone tidied up the messy room, they realized what they had done.

But it was too late for regrets now.

Fortunately, all the food had gone into the stomachs of classmates, so it wasn't a waste.

The next morning, at seven o'clock, the Village Chief called everyone to start work.

Because they had received notice the day before, everyone had finished breakfast early.

Everyone had come to a conclusion from Shi Li: it's better to be obedient, being obedient means less suffering.

Whatever the Village Chief said to do, everyone would do it without question.

Early in the morning, they went to the fields to do farm work. The Village Chief had several women teach everyone how to dig holes, sow seeds, and cover them with soil, leaving with the words that this was their morning task, and they could go eat once it was finished.

This plot of land wasn't very large; experienced farmers would only need five people and two hours to complete this task.

These were young students who had never done farm work before. Village Chief Zhao didn't have high expectations for this group.

As long as they behaved and didn't cause trouble, he would be grateful.

In previous years, when these students came, they always caused a lot of trouble, making him clean up their mess.

If it weren't for the school paying so generously, he wouldn't want this hassle.

This year's kids all seemed quite sensible, much better than in previous years.

Village Chief Zhao walked away from the vegetable field with his hands behind his back, feeling very satisfied.

Shi Li had at least done this farm work once before, so she had some experience.

She divided the classmates into several small groups according to gender, height, and other characteristics, respectively responsible for digging holes, watering, sowing seeds...

As for how each small group further divided the work, that was up to the group leaders.

Everyone worked in an assembly line fashion according to their assigned tasks.

To tell the truth, the efficiency was high and the speed was fast. Some people even felt they were little geniuses at farming, with a natural talent for it in their bones.

They were already considering giving a farming performance for their families when they returned home.

Because of the large number of people and high efficiency, when the Village Chief came to inspect the work around ten o'clock, everyone had already been resting at the edge of the field for a while.

Seeing the watering traces in the soil and that half of the seeds were gone, Village Chief Zhao was a bit stunned: "Did you all do this?"

"You've actually finished everything?"
