140 Poverty Allowance? Teacher, You’ve Found The Wrong Person

The two of them were about to leave the classroom together when they bumped into the energetic counselor.

“That’s great. Ai Tingya, you haven’t left yet. Come with me to the office,” the counselor said as she held her eyes.

The counselor of Ai Tingya’s class was called Zhu Qiao. She was a second-year graduate student and was only a few years older than the students in her class. They rarely saw Zhu Qiao because she was busy with her postgraduate studies.

Ai Tingya did not know why she took the initiative to look for her today.

Ai Tingya waved at Barbara and followed Zhu Qiao into the office.

Zhu Qiao was also mentally and physically exhausted by the graduate course. She rummaged through her desk in a daze. As she searched, she was puzzled. “Strange? Why is it gone? I remember putting it here.”

“Teacher Zhu, what are you looking for?” Ai Tingya asked.

Zhu Qiao was also thinking about something and could not hear the surrounding voices. She did not answer Ai Tingya. Instead, she rummaged under the table and carried out all the thick stacks of information below.

“Where is it?” Zhu Qiao held her falling glasses, looking flustered.

Ai Tingya did not know what she was looking for and could not help.

After waiting for a full 10 minutes, Zhu Qiao finally stopped. It was not that she had found what she was looking for, but that she was tired. She was still scratching her head as she lay on the chair and muttered to herself, “Where did it go? I remember putting it in the drawer.”

Seeing that she could finally talk to her, Ai Tingya hurriedly asked, “Teacher Zhu, what are you looking for?”

Only then did Zhu Qiao remember that Ai Tingya had been waiting for her for a long time. She moved a stool to her and said, “I’m looking for the student subsidy application form.”

“I should have given this to you when you entered the school, but I was too busy and only remembered it today. The school gives subsidies to outstanding students. With your results, it won’t be a problem for you to get a slot.” She explained.

Ai Tingya had heard that the school subsidy for poor students was 5,000 yuan a year. For some families, 5,000 yuan was enough for half a year’s living expenses.

In the past, Ai Tingya might have been tempted, but it was different now.

“Thank you, Teacher Zhu, but I don’t need it,” Ai Tingya refused.

Zhu Qiao was not too surprised. “It’s okay. You don’t need to have any other thoughts. This teacher will keep it a secret for you. Only the two of us know.”

She had students in the past and knew that children from poor families had stronger self-esteem. Zhu Qiao admired people with self-esteem and wanted to help them even more.

Especially Ai Tingya. Even though Zhu Qiao was always busy with her classes in the laboratory, she had also paid attention to the performance of her classmates. Ai Tingya studied hard and kept a low profile. The teachers of the other classes also evaluated her very highly.

Ai Tingya shook her head and said seriously, “Teacher, I really don’t need it. Leave it to someone who needs it more.”

Zhu Qiao did not understand why Ai Tingya was so insistent.

Ai Tingya had always kept a low profile. She had never told anyone about the milk tea shop and company. However, she might not be able to leave if she didn’t tell her today.

She said, “Teacher Zhu, do you know about the Good Me Milk Tea Shop in the commercial street ahead?”

Teacher Zhu was only in her twenties and was at the age where she liked milk tea. He nodded and said, “I know. That business is not bad. I remember that you seem to work there.”

Ai Tingya nodded and said, “Actually, I have shares in the milk tea shop. I… am not lacking in money.”

“No way?” Zhu Qiao’s eyes widened. How many people in today’s society could stand up straight and say that they were not short of money? Moreover, she had seen Ai Tingya’s information and knew that she had grown up in an orphanage.

She knew how expensive the rent on the commercial street was. How could a lonely girl with no one to rely on have the money to open a shop?

Seeing that Zhu Qiao did not believe her, Ai Tingya took out her phone and scrolled through messages about her deposits. “Teacher, please take a look. I’m really not short of money.”

She was the General Manager of the company. The monthly income of the three milk tea shops would be transferred to Ai Tingya’s account. Zhu Qiao’s eyes almost popped out when she saw a few zeros following the number.

His monthly salary was only about 4,000 yuan, and she had to deduct all kinds of insurance from it.

Wasn’t she working hard in the laboratory every day just to earn more money in the future?

Zhu Qiao was stunned for a few seconds before continuing to look for the application form. However, this time, it was not for Ai Tingya. She felt that she might need the poverty allowance even more.

Ai Tingya did not know what kind of roller coaster her teacher had been through. She hurriedly said, “Um, let me help you find it.”

Zhu Qiao held her glasses and looked into Ai Tingya’s sincere eyes. She felt that the more she looked at this girl, the more beautiful she became. Not only was she good-looking, she was also good at learning and at earning money.

She suddenly had an idea and stood up. “I remember now. You can apply for this!”

Zhu Qiao took out a dusty folder and took out the Student Entrepreneurship Support Registration Form.

This form was a form of encouragement for students to start a business. In particular, the Finance Department’s economics and management department, which was mainly aimed at nurturing economic talent, supported entrepreneurial students even more.

After the application was approved, the student could apply to the school for financial support. If there was a need, they could also apply to the school for an office location or the school to help find a partner. As long as the project was good enough, the seniors who graduated were willing to participate.

For a big entrepreneur, the school might not be very supportive, but being able to get to know the seniors who had already succeeded and help each generation was also a benefit of higher education.

Ai Tingya’s eyes lit up when she saw the application form. They really needed this!

If they could get someone to join the franchise milk tea shop or contact their connections, it would also be very beneficial to their reputation here in the future.

Ai Tingya took the application form and said, “Thank you, Teacher. I’ll definitely work hard.”

Zhu Qiao smiled knowingly and said, “Take this form back and fill it in. If you have anything you don’t understand, you can ask me. But I don’t know if you are able to get it. Be mentally prepared.”

“Okay!” Ai Tingya nodded vigorously. She was already very happy to have an application form.

She believed that as long as she worked hard, she would definitely gain something.

Zhu Qiao could not help but smile when she saw how happy Ai Tingya was. Even though she had suffered a small shock just now, she still thought highly of Ai Tingya.

Who wouldn’t like an obedient and beautiful young lady after all?

Knock, knock.

Knock, knock.

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

A boy stood at the door. “May I ask if Teacher Zhu is here?”

“Here!” Zhu Qiao recognized that the boy was Xie Yan, who was in the same class as Ai Tingya. He was also a hardworking student. “Why are you looking for me?”

Xie Yan’s eyes lit up when he saw Zhu Qiao. He hurriedly ran in and said, “Teacher Zhu, does our school have a student entrepreneurship support plan? I want to apply.”

Zhu Qiao blurted out, “You’re starting a business too?”

These words were strange. What did she mean by “too”? Xie Yan quickly noticed that Ai Tingya was holding a support application form.
