Chapter 826 - 588: Accepting Red Envelopes Severely Violates Teachers’ Professional Ethics and Integrity
Time flies like a fleeting horse, and the Lantern Festival arrives quietly.
After the Lantern Festival, it’s the official start of the school year at Dorami Kindergarten.
Because of this, early this morning, many parents actively responded to the kindergarten’s arrangements, packing up their children’s bedding and daily necessities one by one and delivering them to the kindergarten in advance.
At the same time, for the new parents, after smoothly completing the payment process on Alipay, they also arrived at the kindergarten ahead of schedule to collect their children’s uniforms, bedding, and other items, personally delivering them to their respective classrooms.
In an instant...
The classrooms in the kindergarten became even livelier.
In the Class 4 classroom.
"Miss Xie, Miss Yang, Happy New Year..."
Ni Shujing stepped across the threshold, carrying a heavy bedding bundle in one hand and holding Tiantian’s little hand in the other, smiling as she delivered a belated New Year greeting to Xie Jianing and Yang Yuxi.
"Happy New Year to Tiantian’s mother, happy New Year to Tiantian..."
Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing heard the greeting and their faces lit up with bright smiles, simultaneously putting down their tasks to enthusiastically approach.
"Happy New Year, teachers..."
After Tiantian politely greeted them, her gaze suddenly locked onto Qingqing and Weiwei in the classroom, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
The next second...
Without hesitation, she let go of her mom’s hand, joyfully running towards them.
Tiantian squatted down next to Weiwei, loudly shouting, "Qingqing, Weiwei, Happy New Year!"
"Oh dear, Tiantian, your voice is too loud, my ears are going to be deafened~"
Weiwei was startled by Tiantian’s sudden shout and couldn’t help but furrow her brows slightly, pouting a little in discontent.
Upon hearing this, Tiantian pursed her lips.
Whimper whimper~
Weiwei scolded her...
Mushroom, feeling blue!
But Tiantian is well-behaved, she won’t cry...
"Happy New Year, Tiantian!"
Qingqing smiled sweetly at Tiantian and gently rubbed Weiwei’s little ear, softly reminding her, "Sister, Daddy said we should be friendly with our classmates and not be rude to them. Tiantian is greeting you~"
"Happy New Year, Tiantian..."
After hearing Qingqing’s words, Weiwei showed a hint of an apologetic smile, politely replied to Tiantian, and quickly immersed herself back into the pretend play world.
A child’s emotions, after all, are like summer storms; they come quickly and fade just as fast.
Tiantian, as a result, immediately beamed with a bright smile, cheerfully saying, "Weiwei, let me help you build our little world together..."
Before the words were finished, she eagerly joined the game.
Yang Yuxi and the others standing nearby witnessed this warm scene and couldn’t help but smile knowingly.
Then, Yang Yuxi extended her hand to take the bedding bundle from Ni Shujing, gently saying, "Tiantian’s mom, leave the stuff to me. Later, we’ll help Tiantian make her bed."
"Thank you so much!"
Ni Shujing gratefully responded, her gaze sweeping around the classroom, sincerely praising, "Miss Yang, your classroom is truly stunning. Even the ceiling is decorated so elegantly, it really shows your dedication and ingenuity! Speaking of which, is the competition between your teachers this intense? I see other classes do the same too..."
Aye!
𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Did we choose to "roll up our sleeves"?
It’s all due to the kindergarten’s various regulations and requirements...
Aye!
Let’s say—being a kindergarten teacher isn’t easy, so let’s cherish the journey!
Although Xie Jianing and Yang Yuxi sighed secretly in their hearts, their faces still bore warm smiles, not revealing the difficulty, only saying gently, "New semester, new appearance, the classroom must also be renewed."
Ni Shujing nodded in deep agreement and engaged in brief conversation with the two teachers.
At this moment.
She noticed Huang Jun walking out from the dormitory. While slightly surprised, she thought it was an excellent opportunity.
She then took out the prepared red envelopes, handing them to each of them: "Miss Yang, Miss Xie, and Chef Huang, here’s my small gesture, I hope you can accept it."
During festivals, gifting teachers is indeed a common phenomenon among parents.
For Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing, such scenes are familiar to them.
But for Huang Jun, a kitchen staff member, it’s a "maiden voyage!"
He couldn’t help but feel puzzled, not understanding why a parent would give him a red envelope, and he quickly waved his hand, refusing outright: "Tiantian’s mom, you’re too kind, but I really can’t accept this red envelope!"
At the same time, Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing also quickly waved their hands, speaking in unison: "Tiantian’s mom, we really appreciate your gesture, but the red envelope is something we can’t take!"
On one hand, Dorami Kindergarten has clear regulations that strictly prohibit staff from accepting red envelopes from parents.
While accepting a red envelope may bring momentary satisfaction, if a child encounters an incident at the kindergarten, parents could bring up past grievances, accusing teachers of neglecting their duties due to accepting gifts, causing great embarrassment and trouble for both parties.
The teachers naturally are most reluctant to see any accidents happen with the children, but accidents are always unpredictable. Their only option is to do their best to minimize the possibility.
On the other hand, accepting red envelopes seriously violates professional ethical standards for teachers.
For the educators at Dorami Kindergarten, they always uphold principles and refuse any behaviors that could damage professional dignity and image.
