On the 11th holiday, the sky is clear. Chi Nuan took him to the park for a picnic as agreed with Xiao Wutong in advance.
The park is connected to a large playground, and when it comes to holidays, the citizens are like weaving. Chi Nuan found a shady lawn and spread a picnic mat with Xiao Wutong.
Xiao Wutong picked up the basketball he brought: "Mom, you can sit here for a while, eat fruit snacks or something, I'll play some balls, and come back to accompany you, okay?"
Chi Nuan smiled: "Okay."
Xiao Wutong went to shoot the ball on the walking path under the lawn. When the other children saw it, they moved closer, and everyone started to play together.
Chi Nuan squinted at the countless kites in the air, and not long after, she heard someone calling her, "Mr. Chi?"
Chi Nuan turned around and saw Wu Zhe and his mother.
She stood up from the mat and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, did you guys come to the park to play too?"
Wu Zhe's mother said to Chi Nuan: "Oh, Mr. Chi, I'm too embarrassed to see you. I was embarrassed when you returned your things last time. So... It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. How about I invite you to lunch today? Don't push it down any more, it's just one meal, you usually work hard enough to take care of our Wu Zhe."
Chi Nuan: "Mother Wu Zhe, you're too kind. You see, I have my lunch ready... Wu Zhe, do you want to eat sushi? The teacher made it this morning, and it tastes good."
Chi Nuan took out the disposable gloves and handed them to Wu Zhe. Wu Zhe was angry that Chi Nuan made a small report to his mother, causing all his game consoles to be confiscated, and turned his head awkwardly: "I won't eat it."
When Wu Zhe's mother heard this, she poked him in the head with a straight face: "Zhezhe, how did you talk to the teacher?"
"Oh, don't." Chi Nuan stopped her.
Xiao Wutong was thirsty after hitting the ball, so she ran over to Chi Nuan and said, "Mom, I want to drink water."
Chi Nuan handed him a glass of water, Wu Zhe's mother looked at Xiao Wutong with wide eyes: "Mr. Chi, you just graduated from university, right? One year? Or two years?... How old is your son?"
Xiao Wutong was drinking water, and out of the corner of his eyes, he secretly glanced at Chi Nuan.
Chi Nuan smiled secretly: "Chi Zheng, this is the little brother in my mother's class. My name is Wu Zhe. This is Wu Zhe's little brother's mother. Say hello to my aunt and brother."
Xiao Wutong smiled shyly, held the water cup, rubbed her head on Chi Nuan's waist, and said, "Hello auntie, hello brother."
Wu Zhe rolled his eyes carelessly, and Wu Zhe's mother said, "Hello, hello."
Chi Nuan refused to agree to go to lunch, and Wu Zhe's mother no longer reluctantly said a few words, but Wu Zhe urged him to go to the playground, and his mother took him away first.
Chi Nuan thought it was just an innocuous encounter. Who would have guessed that the eleventh holiday was over, and on the first day after returning to school, she was recruited to the principal's office.
"Mr. Chi, you were highly recommended by Mr. Mo and Mr. He from the high school headquarters. Our school also attaches great importance to your training. You are also excellent. To be honest, I personally admire you very much."
Chi Nuan didn't understand what the principal meant, so she could only say, "Thank you, Principal Lu."
The pen in Principal Lu's hand tapped on the large desk: "But now some students' parents are dissatisfied with you, and they have jointly signed a letter to request the replacement of the math teacher in Class 26. The petition has just been submitted to me."
"..." Chi Nuan didn't expect such a thing to happen, she was stunned for a few seconds before asking, "Why?"
Principal Lu scrutinized her: "Parents say that you have a big appetite, and ordinary gift giving can't satisfy you. The deeper reason is that they think you have children underage, doubt whether you have the most basic ethics and morality, and worry that your children are in your hands. been taught badly."
Principal Lu paused and continued: "Mr. Chi, I called you for the first time because I wanted to hear your explanation first."
Wu Zhe's mother's face immediately appeared in Chi Nuan's mind. If these two unwarranted charges are suppressed, even the best character will be angry.
Chi Nuan took a deep breath and said neither humble nor arrogant: "Principal Lu, a parent gave me a shopping mall card not long ago, I returned it as it was, and asked me to eat, but I also refused. If this is the so-called 'appetite' Big', then I really have nothing to say."
Principal Lu nodded.
"...As for children born to minors, I spent three years in high school in No. 1 middle school, and you both know my two teachers. I can't hide this kind of thing if I want to."
Principal Lu thought for a while, threw the pen on the table, and said, "Okay, you go back to the office first."
When I came out of the principal's room, the bright autumn sunshine rushed over Chi Nuan. On the playground far away, the little students were tug-of-war, cheering and cheering loudly.
Chi Nuan walked back to the office slowly, picked up the cup to drink water, took two sips, only to find that the cup was empty.
At the end of the day's work, Chi Nuan was in the kitchen preparing breakfast for the next day at **, when she heard a sound coming from the door.
She glanced out of the cat's eyes and immediately opened the door.
As the door was opened, Mr. Ji outside the door raised his head. The smell of alcohol on his body is very strong, but his consciousness is still sober: "Nuan Nuan, pass by here, I will come up and take a look."
Chi Nuan let him in, and Mr. Ji rubbed his temples: "I'm sorry, there's a party tonight, I seem to be drinking a little too much. ... Where's Xiao Wutong?"
Chi Nuan said, "Sleep. I'll make you a cup of honey water."
Mr. Ji muttered, "Honey water, your brother used to soak it for me too."
Chi Nuan walked to the kitchen, and when he came out again, Mr. Ji fell asleep on the sofa.
Chi Nuan put down the honey water, called Mr. Ji's wife and asked her to pick Mr. Ji home. After Chi Qingchuan passed away, Mr. Ji's wife occasionally asked Chi Nuan out to talk. Like Mr. Ji, he was a very good person.
…
A few days later, Chi Nuan was called to the small meeting room on campus. Almost all the top management of the school were there, and Principal Lu said to Chi Nuan: "The school has studied the situation this time, and it has also communicated repeatedly with the parents of the students. Mr. Chi, of course we are willing to believe in your professionalism, but the parents of the students admit that they Out of this oolong, I am very worried that it will affect your teaching mood, and I have repeatedly asked the school to change your teaching environment."
Principal Lu's words were so grand and grand that the parents seemed to be thinking about Chi Nuan, but in the final analysis, they had to change her from class 26. She had expected this result, and asked Principal Lu calmly, "So what is the school's decision?"
Principal Lu said: "It is initially considered that you and Mr. Wang Lili will change the teaching class. Next, we will interview Mr. Wang."
Chi Nuan said, "Understood."
Principal Lu thought it would take a while, but he didn't expect Chi Nuan to cooperate so much. He looked at her: "...Mr. Chi, our school is different from ordinary public elementary schools. Thank you for making concessions from the school's position."
Chi Nuan turned to leave the conference room and returned to the office. During class time, the office was empty. Chi Nuan sat in a daze, Director Huang knocked on the door and walked in.
No one else was here, so Director Huang spoke more directly: "Mr. Xiaochi, I know you feel wronged, but this society is inherently unfair. You see, Wang Lili is involved in your affairs, she taught well. Yes, because you were changed shifts, wouldn't she feel wronged in her heart?... In short, you're still young, so you can see everything, and you'll understand when you see it more in the future."
Chi Nuan cheered up and said, "Thank you, Director Huang."
Director Huang: "So, if you're not happy, I'll take you to eat something delicious after get off work? It's the weekend anyway."
Chi Nuan: "Director Huang, I'm fine. Besides, I already have an appointment tonight."
Chi Nuan didn't lie about this, Mr. Ji and his wife invited her and Xiao Wutong to eat crabs at home.
"Well, have a nice weekend." Director Huang walked away with his hands behind his back.
After a long time after get off work, Wang Lili came out of the conference room. Except for Chi Nuan who was specially waiting for her, everyone else in the office had long since left.
Wang Lili's eyes are not eyes, and her nose is not a nose, striding up to Chi Nuan: "If it weren't for the fact that the salary here is much higher than the outside, I really don't want to do it! It's too much deceiving, it's not because the two of us have low qualifications, it's easy to handle it. ? Teacher Chi, do you think this is the case? I don't care, but you, as soon as your parents confuse right and wrong, the school will deal with you with sincerity and sincerity, and I feel embarrassed for you even thinking about it!"
Chi Nuan said, "I'm sorry, because my affairs affected you."
Wang Lili said: "Don't do it, you have done nothing wrong. We are now grasshoppers on a rope, played by evil capital in the palm of your hand."
The two began to pack their bags and went downstairs to leave the school together.
Mr. Ji's car was parked outside the school gate with the front and rear windows down. As soon as Xiao Wutong saw Chi Nuan, he immediately leaned out of the car window excitedly: "Mom! We are here!"
Mr. Ji smiled at Chi Nuan.
"I'll go first, I'll bring you breakfast next Monday." Chi Nuan and Wang Lili waved goodbye.
Wang Lili stared at Mr. Ji in the car for several times, and said to Chi Nuan, "...Thank you in advance, I have a good taste again."
That night, after staying at Mr. Ji's house until nearly 8:30, Mr. Ji sent Chi Nuan and Xiao Wutong home.
…
On Saturday, Chi Nuan took Xiao Wutong to the square to play basketball for more than an hour. Since Zhou Damao took Xiao Wutong to play the shooting machine, he has been particularly interested in basketball recently.
After the game, the two walked home. Thinking of the Go class in the afternoon, Chi Nuan asked Xiao Wutong: "Can the recent progress be digested? - Xiao Wutong, basketball should not be shot on the side of the road."
"Mom, I'll take a few more shots." Xiao Wutong lowered his head, "Mom, look at me, look at me, isn't this super cool?"
Chi Nuan's voice was a little darker: "Chi Zheng?"
"Okay..." Xiao Wutong stared at the ball, thinking about taking one last shot, but the basketball bounced on a broken brick, bounced off the sidewalk, and rolled to the middle of the road.
"My ball!" Xiao Wutong rushed to pick up the ball.
By the time Chi Nuan reacted, he couldn't stop it. Xiao Wutong jumped onto the road, and with the harsh sound of sudden braking, a car driving in a straight line suddenly stopped a few centimeters in front of Xiao Wutong's body.
"Ouch mom!"
"It's okay, it didn't hit!"
"This house is burning high incense, but it's just a little bit short."
Passers-by kept exclaiming.
Xiao Wutong was frightened and sat down on the road.
Chi Nuan pounced on him with weak hands and feet and hugged him: "Chi Zheng? Chi Zheng! Don't be afraid, Chi Zheng is not afraid, mom is here, we'll be fine, eh?"
Xiao Wutong's face was pale, and he was too frightened to speak.
Chi Nuan immediately took him away from the car and sat on the side of the road in shock. She held his face and stared into his eyes: "Don't scare mom, Chi Zheng? Chi Zheng, just say something, don't scare mom. "
Chi Nuan's anxious and frightened look fell into Xiao Wutong's eyes, and he finally cried out with a "wow".
The car parked in the middle of the road, the driver's door was opened, and the feet on high heels landed one after another. The woman picked up the basketball, walked to Xiao Wutong, put the ball down, and asked, "Are you alright?"
She has a small tear mole at the corner of her eye, and she looks very charming. But because of the capable temperament, the charm was invisibly diluted a lot.
Chi Nuan suppressed her frightened heartbeat, and apologized to her again and again: "I'm sorry, we jumped out suddenly, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry."
"Are you sure it's alright?"
The car didn't hit Xiao Wutong. Xiao Wutong was more frightened. Now that she was crying, Chi Nuan was relieved: "It's okay, I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
The woman bent down, smiled at Xiao Wutong and said, "Children, please have some candy."
She stuffed the candy in her hand into Xiao Wutong's pocket, rubbed his head, and confirmed to Chi Nuan again: "I really don't need to go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Chi Nuan shook her head, thanking and apologizing again.
The woman got back into the car, and the car drove away in a blink of an eye.
Chi Nuan held back her tears and said to Xiao Wutong, "Chi Zheng, how did your mother tell you? You can't shoot the ball on the side of the road, right? The ball will roll, it's very dangerous, if something really happened just now... "
Xiao Wutong sobbed and hugged Chi Nuan's neck, her small body trembling: "Mom, I'm sorry, I will listen to you in the future, and I won't do this again."
The passerby aunt who was watching the whole process spoke at this time, and she said to Chi Nuan: "Hey, are you stupid? You don't look at what car it is, such a luxurious car must be a rich man, why don't you knock it? She is a mental loss fee? That person seems to have a good attitude, so he won't give it to you."
Since she said "silly", Chi Nuan reached out and covered Xiao Wutong's ears.
On the way home, Chi Nuan held the ball in one hand and Xiao Wutong in the other. The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, and the tears rolled in his eyes again.
Xiao Wutong remembered the candy in his pocket, took it out, spread it over and over in his palm, and finally held it in front of Chi Nuan's eyes: "Mom, it's like this, for you, for you to eat."
In Chi Nuan's slightly blurred vision, a chocolate candy wrapped in purple wrapping paper appeared.
