I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

135 He’s Grown Up

“I wonder how Mr. Du was getting along with the babies just now. Are you willing to become their first teacher in the next few months?”

Mo Ruyue asked directly.

“Madam Qin, your babies are all intelligent and sensible, not stubborn or stupid, they are absolutely outstanding talents among the children I have seen. There aren’t many people that I, Du Zhongheng, like. It’s my good fortune to be able to meet five of them at once.”

“If the babies think I’m not bad, then I hope to have the honor of being their initiate teacher.”

!!

Du Zhongheng immediately gave an affirmative answer.

After spending the morning with them, he had already fallen in love with the five smart and sensible children with different personalities. He had also directly asked them about their plans for the future. If even one of them wanted to participate in the scientific examination, he was going to reject the invitation.

However, the answer given to him by each baby was that he did not want to use it as a reference. After repeated confirmation, he could come to a certain conclusion that every baby’s plans for their future were not just empty talk.

They were still young, but that didn’t mean they didn’t have their own ideas. Everyone had a clear goal for their future, which was why he finally accepted the invitation.

Mo Ruyue turned to look at the babies who were sitting obediently and asked, “Are you willing to accept Mr. Du as your teacher?”

This was a two-way choice. If the babies didn’t get along well with him, Mo Ruyue would pass him without hesitation. They had already communicated this on their way back.

The five babies looked at each other and finally elected Da Bao as their spokesperson to express their opinions on their behalf.

“Mr. Du is knowledgeable and talented. His lectures are humorous and interesting. We all like him very much and are willing to be his students.”

“Since that’s the case, then this matter is settled.”

Mo Ruyue immediately made the decision.

The next thing was to discuss how to write the contract. It involved the content of the lesson, the length of time, how to calculate the salary, the responsibilities and obligations of both parties, and so on.

This was not the first time they had signed such a contract. The two of them were not calculative people. Other than spending a little time on the issue of principle, the rest of the proposals were immediately passed by both sides. There was no room for bargaining.

Mo Ruyue was generous enough, and Du Zhongheng did not rely on this salary to make a living. Both sides took what they needed and hit it off. A contract was completed in a short time.

There were two copies of the contract. Mo Ruyue and Du Zhongheng each held one. Du Zhongheng wrote it with a wave of his brush. After Mo Ruyue looked at it and there were no problems, the two of them signed and pressed their fingerprints on it. This contract would officially take effect.

“Mr. Du, now that the contract has been signed I should give you a few days to prepare but the day after tomorrow I will be on duty. I have a new plan tomorrow so I wanted to ask if you can start teaching tomorrow?”

Mo Ruyue was already prepared to be rejected when she asked the question. After all, her request was too sudden. It would not be surprising if Du Zhongheng rejected it.

“That’s not a problem. In fact, I’ve seen the notebook you used to prepare for your lessons and even checked the learning progress of the babies. Even if you ask me to start teaching now, there’s no problem at all.”

What kind of person was Du Zhongheng? After reading Mo Ruyue’s notes, he had already drawn up a complete teaching plan in his mind.

Mo Ruyue needed to understand and study those books, but to Du Zhongheng, they were just things that had once laid the foundation for him. He had long since memorized them and integrated them into his mind. He didn’t even need to revise them to be able to grasp them at his fingertips.

That was why he could say such words with confidence. Any other private teacher would not dare to say this.

“In that case, I’ll leave it to you, Sir. However, I can’t provide you with accommodation. I can only reimburse you for the daily round-trip transportation fee.”

“I’m leaving early tomorrow morning and won’t be at home. I’ll prepare lunch for you and the babies before I leave, but you’ll have to settle your breakfast and dinner on your own.”

Mo Ruyue explained tomorrow’s arrangements. Du Zhongheng listened and nodded repeatedly. “Okay, I will also prepare and consider these myself. Lady Qin has already considered it very thoroughly, I have nothing to choose from.”

“Alright, then I’ll send you back first. At this time, other than my family’s imperial carriage, you shouldn’t be able to find any other carriage that can take you back to the county.”

After Mo Ruyue finished speaking, she went to the courtyard to get her carriage, while Du Zhongheng continued to stay in the ‘classroom’ and gave an advance notice of the class tomorrow so that the babies could prepare and understand on their own. At the same time, he also wanted to see how good their self-learning ability was.

Soon, Mo Ruyue’s voice came from outside. The two of them left the Qin Village in a car under the eyes of the five babies.

Mo Ruyue had greeted the babies the night before, so she was already prepared to enter the mountain the next day before the villagers got up.

“Da Bao, I have already put the food in the pot. After you finish your morning work, eat quickly. Today is Mr. Du’s first day of teaching, so you must perform well.”

Before she left, she reminded them as usual. She was still very assured of the babies’ self-discipline and self-care ability.

“I know, Mother. Please be careful.”

It wasn’t time for the babies to get up and do their morning classes yet. Da Bao was also woken up by Mo Ruyue at the last minute, while the other babies were still sleeping soundly.

Now that they had formed a fixed biological clock, as long as the time came and they got up, they were all in high spirits and did not have the bad habit of lazing in bed.

“Alright, then you should sleep for a while more. Mother will be leaving now.”

Mo Ruyue suddenly remembered that just a few days ago, she had entered the mountain late at night. She had also been repeatedly warned by Da Bao to be careful. At a different time, under the same circumstances, but Da Bao’s deep concern for her remained unchanged.

She had already taken two steps out, but she suddenly turned back and touched Da Bao’s head.

She touched both their heads and stroked their hair, but Tang Tang felt fluffy to the touch, while Da Bao felt a little prickly. Was it because he had grown up?

Mo Ruyue touched it a few more times, wanting to feel it again. She didn’t expect that Da Bao had already come back to his senses and slapped her hand away.

“If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t touch me, I’m all grown up.”

Da Bao was still not used to being treated so warmly by Mo Ruyue. Although he had seen his younger siblings act coquettishly with his mother in the past and his mother had touched their heads like this, he had been a little envious at that time. But now that he was really touched on the head, he was still very embarrassed and could not get rid of this face.

Mo Ruyue was just about to speak when her ears suddenly twitched. Her expression immediately became serious and she said to Da Bao, “I’m leaving, close the door.”

After she finished speaking, she hurriedly left.
