Chapter 54 Chapter 54 One week into the new semester, this is Jiang Xiaoci’s second…

Han Jiang became independent very early. She was not allowed to live in the school dormitory in junior high school. Starting from her first year in high school, she had to live in the school no matter what and only came back on weekends. The call from the head teacher early in the morning must be about Han Jiang.

Han Jingyuan, who was planning to go out to work, waited for a while and heard what Jiang Xiaoci said. He roughly guessed what the teacher was talking about: Han Jiang had a conflict with his classmates again and his parents were called.

He was afraid that his wife would only apologize to the teacher and wrong Han Jiang, so he mentioned it again: "Why don't we let Han Jiang not live in the school this time and go to school as a day student."

If students attend school as a part-time job, the conflict may not be so great, but this will not solve the fundamental problem.

Jiang Xiaoci disagreed and frowned, "Is this a day-student thing? It's only been a week since school started, and this is the second time the teacher has called me as a parent. I'm really embarrassed to go. How about you go this time?"

Han Jingyuan was willing to go, and said with a smile: "Are you sure you want me to go? If I go, I will help Han Jiang come up with a strategy to deal with you."

Obviously Han Jingyuan is more serious, but he is a kind father. If Han Jingyuan is allowed to go there, it will be even worse. He might argue with the head teacher in the teacher's office, which will only make Han Jiang more lawless and affect Han Jiang's future studies.

Things can't be handled that way, Jiang Xiaoci waved her hand: "Forget it, you go to work, I'll go to school."

The two have been married for sixteen years, and Jiang Xiaoci's personality has not changed. She is still as simple and kind as before. Han Jingyuan touched her head and suddenly heard a conversation.

It has been more than ten years since I heard this conversation. He controlled himself very well and didn't let Jiang Xiaoci notice.

"Finally, the story of their previous generation has come to an end."

"The story of the previous generation has been very complete so far, so we must look at the story of Han Jiang and the others, right?"

Han Jingyuan didn't understand. Their lives of more than ten years were so long, but in the world in the conversation, only a dozen days had passed and it was Han Jiang's turn. However, Han Jiang didn't seem to be as lucky as Jiang Xiaoci.

Seeing that he was in deep thought again, Jiang Xiaoci stopped and asked, "What's wrong? Is there another case in the bureau?"

Han Jingyuan has had a smooth life over the past decade, rising from deputy captain to captain, then to deputy director, and now he is Director Han of the branch.

Han Jingyuan shook his head, used a smile to cover up his absent-mindedness, and said with a smile: "No, I just think of our Han Jiang's personality. Who do you think he is like?"

Jiang Xiaoci said: "Anyway, she doesn't look like me, nor like you. She looks a little like her uncle, but she's smarter than him. I won't say anything more. The teacher is waiting. I have to go to school."

…

This was the second time that Jiang Xiaoci went into the teacher's office in the first week of school. She had known all the teachers in the office during her first and second years of high school. She was Han Jiang's parent, had an optimistic personality, and was good at matchmaking. Several of the teachers' relatives were introduced by Jiang Xiaoci.

"Han Jiang's mother is here. Teacher Wu, please calm down. Han Jiang is a good child, just a little rebellious. She will listen if you talk to her nicely."

Jiang Xiaoci felt particularly guilty. Given her son Han Jiang's personality, it was probably because Han Jiang refused to admit his mistake and made a fuss, causing the teacher to call his parents.

She admitted her mistake in a very positive manner: "Teacher Wu, what outrageous thing did Han Jiang do so early in the morning?"

In addition to the teacher who was preparing to go to class, there were Han Jiang and her two classmates in the office. Jiang Xiaoci knew the male classmate, who was the top student in the grade last semester. There was also a weak and gentle girl, who looked unfamiliar and had not been seen last semester. She should have just transferred here in the new semester. It seemed that this matter was related to these three people.

Teacher Wu had just criticized him, but Han Jiang still refused to admit his mistake.

Teacher Wu was so angry that he slammed the table several times, and said in a tone of disappointment:

"Han Jiang from your family is good in every way. She has good grades, good physical fitness in sports competitions, and even better perseverance. But she just does what she wants and doesn't listen to anyone. Guess what she did this time?"

Jiang Xiaoci couldn't guess, with Han Jiang's personality, she would not be surprised by anything he did.

Teacher Wu took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and then continued angrily:

"She actually eloped with Zheng Mingxian. Fortunately, Zheng Mingxian came to his senses in time and did not follow Han Jiang in making trouble. She beat Zheng Mingxian up. His parents are working in other places and can't come over. Your Han Jiang can't just bully him! Not only is he rebellious, but he also led the best and most obedient student in the class astray."

Does Han Jiang have a male classmate he likes?

Jiang Xiaoci did not object to this point.

The average age of Han Jiang's classmates is around 17 or 18 years old. Only Han Jiang is younger because he skipped a grade.

Jiang Xiaoci got married at the age of 18. At that time, the Marriage Law stipulated that the legal age for marriage for girls was 18 and for boys was 20. Later in 1980, it was changed to 20 years old for girls and 22 years old for boys.

Although Jiang Xiaoci did not object to Han Jiang's relationship, she had to talk to her later and ask her to at least wait until she was 18 years old. It was a bit too early now.

The matter in front of him had to be dealt with. Jiang Xiaoci looked at Han Jiang and was about to speak, but Han Jiang suddenly resisted:

"Mom, you can't just listen to the teacher's one-sided statement and conclude that I'm wrong. Let me tell you, it was Zheng Mingxian who had a crush on me first. I asked him if he liked me, and he didn't deny it. Isn't that a tacit agreement? I didn't want to elope with him either. I just wanted to take him to see his grandmother's fortune. How did the teacher say that it was elopement? Zheng Mingxian, speak up."

The head teacher was so angry that he slammed the table again, which scared Zheng Mingxian so much that he trembled and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Jiang Xiaoci was troubled by Han Jiang's character. He would not tolerate any grievance.

She quickly admitted her mistake to the teacher: "Teacher Wu, please don't be angry. I apologize on behalf of Han Jiang. So, I will take her home today and let her father take good care of her. Is that okay with you?"

The head teacher actually values ​​Han Jiang's talent very much. Han Jiang's academic performance is consistently among the top five in the grade, so he is a good prospect. It's just that his personality is too troublesome.

Now that he is in his third year of high school, he must be strictly disciplined.

The teacher also knew that what happened today was just the beginning of love, not something as serious as elopement, but she had to nip the signs in the bud, so she spoke of it in such a serious manner, hoping that the parents would cooperate in managing the child well.

The parents cooperated, and Teacher Wu said, "Okay, you can take Han Jiang back home and ask her to reflect on her mistakes. I will make up for the missed lessons later."

Han Jiang doesn't need any supplements! She ran out of the classroom angrily. Jiang Xiaoci apologized to the teacher repeatedly and quickly chased after her.

…

Han Jiang knew that her mother was chasing her, and she was afraid that her mother would fall, so she deliberately slowed down her pace and walked slowly towards the bus stop.

When her mother arrived, Han Jiang complained, "Mom, no matter what happens, you always criticize me without asking the cause. This time I am not wrong."

Jiang Xiaoci is eloquent when she is acting as a matchmaker, but she is often at a loss when it comes to Han Jiang.

She said: "Han Jiang, Mom knows that you are a child with positive values, but the world will not revolve according to your ideas. Sometimes people have to do things that go against their own will in order to integrate into the group."

"You are now in your third year of high school. The teachers and other parents will never allow you to have even the slightest hint of love. Of course, mom has no objection, but you have to consider the responsibilities and feelings of the teachers, as well as the family education methods of other parents. You can't just do whatever you want, don't you agree?"

Han Jiang said, "Mom, I understand what you said, but what happened today was not what the teacher said. It was all Zheng Xianming's fault. We agreed to skip the morning self-study and go out to see Grandma, but he said he couldn't go after the new transfer student said a few words to him. I was also reported by my classmates for having a premature relationship, but he didn't dare to admit that he had a crush on me first. In short, it was his fault."

Jiang Xiaoci: "Then you still don't allow people to regret it?"

Han Jiang: "He can regret it, so he has to be prepared to be beaten."

Jiang Xiaoci advised: "Look, Zheng Mingxian didn't even mention the specific details of the beating, and kept saying it was his fault. Let's just forget about it, shall we?"

Han Jiang and her mother couldn't continue talking: "Anyway, we'll quarrel if we continue talking. Okay, don't follow me. I want to go out and relax."

Han Jiang learned martial arts from Zhou Qingzhu and had the ability to protect herself, so she felt safe when she went out.

Jiang Xiaoci guessed that she was going to go find Han Jingyuan. Well, she still listened to Han Jingyuan. Jiang Xiaoci let Han Jiang do whatever she wanted and went back to the matchmaking agency first.

…

When Han Jiang arrived at the Municipal Bureau, the uncles and aunts liked her very much and asked her, "Did you get into trouble at school again today?"

Han Jiang said: "It's not me, why do people always think it's me?"

The uncles and aunts joked, "Because our Han Jiang is not a person who will suffer a loss. Although you are always right, if you don't change your character, you will be the one who suffers in the end."

Han Jiang was very depressed.

Han Jingyuan heard his daughter outside, anxious and angry, and came out to greet her: "You are bullying my daughter again."

Everyone responded with a smile: "Who can bully Han Jiang? This child is good at studying and fighting. How can such a good girl always be bullied in school?"

Han Jiang felt much better. At least the uncles and aunts here liked her and understood her.

She followed her father into his office and told him everything that had happened today, and also mentioned her mother's attitude.

"Dad, do you know that Zheng Xianming was transferred to sit next to me at the beginning of the school year? The way he looked at me showed that he secretly liked me."

"Then I asked him, I said, 'Zheng Xianming, do you like me?' Zheng Xianming's face turned red and he didn't say anything. I said, 'If you don't say anything, I will assume that you like me.' Then he still didn't deny it. Dad, do you think this is love?"

If this isn't love, then what is?

Han Jingyuan patiently answered: "According to my father's understanding, this should be love. Then what happened next? What did you do?"

Han Jiang's family atmosphere allows her to say whatever she wants, and she feels no burden talking about these things with her parents.

She said: "Since he likes me, I feel that I should be responsible for him."

Han Jingyuan smiled and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Han Jiang felt a little embarrassed. She was only willing to confide these little thoughts hidden in her heart to her father.

"This is the first boy who likes me since I was a child. I just hope he will be fine. Grandma is very accurate in fortune-telling. I want to take him to her first. If he is fine, then it's fine. If not, I will pay more attention to him. Then I don't know how the rumor got out that we were going to skip classes and elope. This is ridiculous. My home is here. Why elope?"

The classmate who spread the rumor was very hateful. Han Jingyuan frowned and asked, "Then did you find out which classmate spread the rumor that you were going to elope?"

Han Jiang already had several candidates in mind:

"Do I need to ask about this? Those bad boys in my class who I beat up joked that we skipped classes to elope, and the teacher believed it when he heard it. They said it together, and they also said that I was not as good as the new transfer student."

Han Jingyuan realized from the conversation just now that the transfer student was the key, and asked, "Why is the transfer student in your class in the teacher's office with you and Zheng Xianming this time?"

Han Jiang didn't want to talk about the transfer students. They were likable and loved by everyone, but she just didn't like them.

Han Jiang said, "Dad, the transfer student is called Ji Shuyi. Because her last name is Ji, I don't want to talk to her."

A person flashed through Han Jingyuan's mind. Could it be such a coincidence?

I still have to persuade Xiao Han Jiang about today's matter. Han Jingyuan calmly analyzed it with her:

"Han Jiang, actually mom loves you the most. She apologized to the teacher because she hopes you can have an easier time in school. You said mom doesn't understand you and criticizes you without asking the cause and effect. So what do you want mom to do? Let her have a big fight with the teacher? In the current education environment, can mom have a fight with the teacher? After the fight, how can you study in school?"

Han Jiang thought about it and it seemed to be true.

She wasn't being unreasonable: "Dad, I know, I just want you all to understand me."

Han Jingyuan said, "Dad certainly understands you. There are some rules that you don't want to follow, but since they are set, you have to be patient for a while. The college entrance examination is only a year away. Let's focus on studying first, okay?"

Han Jiang can accept calm communication. What she wants is understanding.

She felt much better and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I'm doing well in my studies. I'm so disappointed in Zheng Mingxian and I won't give in to him anymore."

After counseling her, Han Jingyuan asked her, "You don't have to go back to school today, so will you go home for dinner tonight?"

Han Jiang chuckled: "I finally have a day off, I want to go out and relax, you tell mom when you get off work, I will definitely be home before ten o'clock."

…

Jiang Xiaoci had just returned to the matchmaking agency when the aroma of wine, which had not been seen for half a year, arrived and had been waiting at the agency for quite some time.

Jiang Xiaoci was surprised and delighted: "Jiuxiang, you didn't even tell me you were back. Did you come back alone, or with your dad, mom, and sister?"

Feng Jiuxiang has graduated from graduate school and her internship has also ended.

She explained: "Aunt Jiang, I was transferred to work in Beijing. Now I am an English teacher at Han Jiang School. I just happened to be teaching English to their class."

Jiang Xiaoci was even more surprised: "Han Jiang, the English teacher, said she was going to get married and leave her job to move to another place. She has been waiting for a replacement teacher. I didn't expect it to be you. That's great. She can listen to you a few words. I feel relieved to have you around."

In her previous life, Feng Jiuxiang did not return to Beijing to work, nor did she become a teacher, but she did attend high school here for one year.

In this life, when she learned that Ji Qinglan was her biological mother, she made plans. She would go to the best normal school, pursue graduate studies, and then return to her sister's school, which was also the school she had transferred to, to teach.

Feng Jiuxiang has been preparing for this day for more than ten years, and she will not let the things that happened in her previous life happen again.

She thought about not letting her sister come to this school in this life, so that she would not have to meet Zheng Mingxian and Ji Shuyi.

However, during these ten years, many things continued to develop in the same way as in her previous life. When she experienced them personally and looked at them from another perspective, things were completely different from what she knew in her previous life.

So this time, instead of avoiding it, it is better to face it. She came to this school in person to look after her sister, which should help resolve the potential crisis.

The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Xiaoci invited her to have lunch.

Feng Jiuxiang declined: "Aunt Jiang, I have to go to school to register. Han Jiang will be very happy if she knows that I am her English teacher."

Of course, Jiang Xiaoci was happy too, but she said, "You won't be able to see her today. She was criticized by her head teacher this morning, so I asked her to take a day off."

Feng Jiuxiang defended Han Jiang very much: "Our Han Jiang is so well-behaved and righteous. Is he taking the blame for someone else again this time?"

Jiang Xiaoci warned: "Jiuxiang, you are a teacher now. Don't favor Han Jiang at school just because of your relationship with your family. It will make things difficult for you. Han Jiang has a strong mentality and she can protect herself."

"Okay, I know."

Feng Jiuxiang thought that her visit would also help Han Jiang to suffer less loss due to his personality.

…

In the evening, Jiang Xiaoci saw that Han Jiang didn't come back with her father, so she asked, "Did Han Jiang say where she was going?"

Han Jingyuan persuaded his daughter to be good, so he naturally had to coax his wife. In his heart, Jiang Xiaoci was also wronged. He said, "I talked to Han Jiang, and she understood your painstaking efforts, but she wanted to go out and relax, and she would not come back for dinner."

Jiang Xiaoci smiled and said, "My way of dealing with people is not suitable for Han Jiang. She has to make her own way. She should go to find Du Sui. Let's not eat at home tonight. Let's go to have barbecue near Du Sui's school."

Han Jingyuan knew that she was going to apologize to Han Jiang, and said with a smile: "Han Jiang really doesn't blame you."

Jiang Xiaoci said: "I know, I want to apologize to her, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable."

The two went to Du Sui's school, and on the way Jiang Xiaoci told him about Feng Jiuxiang's job transfer.

"Why did Jiuxiang come back to be a teacher? She has had her own ideas since she was young. She knows that Ji Qinglan is her sister's biological mother, so she never treats her in a good light. If it weren't for Jiuxiang's protection, cousin Wenyu might have collapsed mentally over the years. So I can't understand why she left her mother and sister and came here to be a teacher."

"You've said it yourself. She is a person with her own ideas. She must have her reasons," said Han Jingyuan.

In fact, Han Jingyuan knew that Feng Jiuxiang was protecting another self. Could it be that her sister He Xiaotang would come over after a while?

Han Jingyuan reached out and touched Jiang Xiaoci's hair, and suddenly he heard the conversation again. Recently, this sound would come into his ears every now and then.

"Alas, although Han Jiang has a good talent, she is easily misunderstood. She was born with a good starting point, but it's a pity that Han Jiang doesn't have the good luck of her mother."

"Yes, the new transfer student is loved by everyone. How can Han Jiang counterattack?"

"Han Jiang is also pitiful. She was the one who suffered the most in the incident between the two transfer students. I really hope she can change her personality."

Han Jingyuan silently put his hand down. He and Jiang Xiaoci had lived smoothly for more than ten years. Feng Jiuxiang had protected her sister at all costs. As parents, they would naturally protect Han Jiang at all costs.

…

Han Jiang did come to see Du Sui.

Just after class, Du Sui's roommate said, "Du Sui, your sister is here."

Du Sui knew that the little girl had suffered from not being understood again, so she came to him and took Han Jiang to eat barbecue opposite the school.

Han Jiang was not so tactful when she spoke to Du Sui. As soon as the skewers came, she took a big bite and accused her cowardly classmate.

"Zheng Mingxian is a coward. We agreed to skip classes and study together and deal with the teacher's criticism together, but he was fascinated by the transfer student. He felt that what he was going to do was wrong just because the transfer student said a few words. I was even more angry when I heard that. Doesn't he have his own thoughts? He has to listen to others. I despise such people!"

Why is there suddenly a transfer student?

Du Sui asked, "Is Zheng Mingxian the top boy in your grade?"

Han Jiang drank half a bottle of soda in one breath, feeling a little better, and said, "It is now, but it won't be in the future. From now on, I will be the top student in the grade."

"Yes, you got the first place in the exam, so that your deskmate knows that he wants to be friends with you, but you don't have to be friends with him."

"Yes, I think so too, Du Sui, you know me best."

Du Sui clinked Coke bottles with her. After his father was abandoned, he started a family with Aunt Qian and had harmonious neighbors. Aunt Jiang has always been very good to him. Without Aunt Jiang's matchmaking, he would not have the happy family of four he has now, with his parents, him and his sister An An.

Du Sui saw Aunt Jiang coming and hurriedly pulled Han Jiang to stand up: "Your mother is here, don't make her angry again."

Han Jiang was still unwilling to speak actively.

Jiang Xiaoci used the mentality of a good friend: "Han Jiang, Mom didn't come here to tell on Du Sui. You came to him whenever you felt wronged. I guessed you would be here, so I came over."

Han Jiang glanced at his father in the distance, then at his mother, and his heart softened. He said, "Mom, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I don't want to go home now."

Jiang Xiaoci smiled: "I didn't tell you to go home. I came here to apologize to you. I've thought a lot about it. You're actually very capable and can handle the problem yourself. I shouldn't have distrusted you. I want to apologize to you. Have a good meal with your brother. Your father and I are also going to have a barbecue. Let's go!"

Han Jiang looked at his parents holding hands for a long time, and was very envious: "Du Sui, my parents have a really good relationship. In fact, my parents are already very good parents."

Du Sui nodded: "Yes, I will take you home after dinner. If you listen to me, stay away from the transfer student and don't let her get close to you."

Han Jiang listened and said, "Everyone in the class wants to be friends with her, but I don't want to. I don't like her and don't want to be friends with her. If she takes the initiative, I will stay away from her."
