Chapter 240 Take the lead, big brother
"Songlin, what did you do?"
Li Shaoan felt something was wrong. The boy's clothes were torn and his face was swollen. He looked like he was fighting with someone.
Ai Xin from the principal's office saw Li Shaoan coming, and immediately walked out, laughed and said with apologies: "Comrade Shaoan, you are here."
Li Shaoan asked, "Principal Ai, what's going on?"
Ai Xin said: "The kids you brought have fought with the students in our school today. They were all led by this kid. I called him out of the office and stood there."
Li Shaoan felt a headache and wanted to bring the children from the village to the town to attend classes. He had a kind intention, but unexpectedly he started a fight and was very angry.
"Principal Ai, are the students injured?" Li Shaoan said worriedly.
"There is no injury, but the impact caused is very bad, especially for him, it is really not necessary to bring people to fight in groups." Ai Xin didn't know that Li Songlin was Li Shaoan's nephew, so he was merciless when criticizing him.
"Uncle, they looked down on others and kept mocking Erdan, so I wanted to vent my anger for Erdan." Li Songlin was very wronged. When he saw Li Shaoan, he immediately complained to him.
Ai Xin's eyes flashed. When he heard Li Songlin call Uncle Li Shaoan just now, he couldn't help but wonder, is the relationship between these two people really an uncle and nephew? If this is true, it would be difficult to deal with. Isn't this equivalent to offending Li Shaoan, or even Sun Liping?
"Comrade Shaoan, is this kid really your nephew?" Ai Xin asked tentatively.
Li Shaoan hurriedly apologized: "Sorry, Principal Ai, it was because I didn't discipline my nephew well, which caused trouble for the school."
"Songlin, are you taking the lead in the fight?" Li Shaoan said sternly.
Li Songlin said aggrievedly: "It was them who joked about Erdan first. They joked about us, but the teacher didn't care. I was so angry that I could only vent my anger for Erdan."
"Nonsense, how could the teacher ignore it?" Li Shaoan said sternly.
Li Songlin's eyes turned red with anxiety and said, "It's that music teacher, she even took the lead in laughing at us."
When Ai Xin heard this, he immediately said, "Comrade Shaoan, there is probably the first misunderstanding here. The teachers in our school will never do such a thing."
"That's right, she did it on purpose." Li Songlin was dissatisfied and started arguing with Ai Xin.
Seeing this, Li Shaoan glared at Li Songlin and signaled him not to be rude. Li Songlin was so scared that he dared not speak.
"Principal Ai, I think there is indeed a misunderstanding here, and what the child says cannot be taken seriously."
Li Shaoan knew that no matter whether what Li Songlin said was true or not, after all, it was in someone else's school, so it would be meaningless to argue about these things again.
Ai Xin changed his stern look just now, and his tone became much more relaxed, saying, "Actually, the fight was not the mistake of Li Songlin alone. There are also something wrong with the students in our school. I asked him to stand outside and wanted him to think calmly. I believe he also realized that his behavior was wrong. Since that's the case, then go to class quickly."
Li Shaoan patted Li Songlin on the shoulder and instructed: "Principal Ai said, then you go and get everyone together after class. I'll pick you up."
...
The sun sets in the sky, and after elementary school, Li Shaoan and Wang Xiangxiu took the students back to Tieshan Bay.
On the way back, Li Shaoan turned around and asked the children: "How is it? Are you having a happy life in the town school today? Have you ever met new friends?"
I thought the children would answer happily, but I didn't expect that everyone was hunching their heads, listless and looked uninterested.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Shaoan felt unexpected. The smile on his face frozen in half and the scene was very awkward.
Li Shaoan asked around, but no one answered below. Everyone lowered their heads and silently refused to speak.
"Edan, tell me what's wrong?" Li Shaoan saw Erdan in the pile of children. Today, Li Songlin was still fighting with others for him. Maybe this child could tell that he was ugly.
Erdan whispered: "We don't want to go to the primary school in the town to attend classes. We want to go back to find Teacher Jiang."
A group of children below followed and said, "We are going back to find Teacher Jiang."
As he was talking, some children actually started to cry. Li Shaoan was panicked for a moment. He didn't know how to coax such a child.
"Don't cry, just talk about it, what's going on?" Li Shaoan said anxiously.
A little girl said, "When I was in music class today, the teacher asked Erdan to sing. Erdan couldn't sing. Erdan didn't sing, so the teacher didn't let him sit down. As a result, everyone laughed at him. They said we were country bumpkins from the mountains, and we had never seen anything, had never attended music classes, and we didn't know the organ."
"They also joked about us, saying that we were wearing patched clothes, ugly and ugly, and they were so smelly."
"Also said we spoke in a dirt-like manner..."
"When Li Songlin saw them laughing at Erdan, he went up to fight with them. The more they bullied, the fewer people, and Li Songlin was defeated."
The children opened their conversation, and the grievances in their hearts were like a flood that opened the gate, all pouring out, and everyone told them about the ridicule and cold eyes they received outside during the day.
Li Shaoan looked back at his nephew Li Songlin, and suddenly felt guilty about his angry behavior during the day. It turned out that what Li Songlin said was true. He would attack others in order to speak up for Erdan.
"Songlin, your point is good, but remember, as long as there is a better solution, don't take action until the end." Li Shao comforted Li Songlin's little head and taught his nephew, "If you want others to look down on it, it's not about fists, but about strength in your heart."
Li Songlin seemed to understand but nodded and said, "I understand, uncle."
Listening to the children's complaints, Li Shaoan deeply understood that he was a person who had experienced it. When he walked out of Tieshanwan and came to study in the town, he was ridiculed by the students in the town because of his poverty.
This kind of ridicule is not only in junior high school. After going to the county town to study in high school, it continues to be ridiculed by classmates in the county town. After coming to college, it continues to be ridiculed by classmates in the capital.
Everyone is born unique. Who would be born to be cold-eyed because of region and poverty? But this chain of contempt has existed from ancient times to the present. It is impossible to make it disappear. The only thing that can be done is to make yourself better and make those who despise themselves have no right to be arrogant in front of themselves.
Li Shaoan asked: "Children, do you really dislike going to the primary school in the town?"
The innocent children answered in unison: "Yes! We don't want to go, we like Teacher Jiang!"
"Okay, then we won't go to the town tomorrow, we will teach in the village!" Li Shaoan asked, "But Teacher Jiang is sick, we want her to have a good rest. Will I come to teach everyone tomorrow?"
"good!"
The children all showed happy smiles on their faces.
