Chapter 451: Cleaning Up the Chatterbox 2 I'll watch, you call the police and have him arrested...

Director Chi was in a state of panic. Call the police? Where would the school's reputation be?

It wasn't a big deal. Given the temper of those old-timers, they would definitely just laugh it off, ignore it, and continue with the class.

Besides, he was in the wrong for letting the teaching assistant teach the class, and he would be in trouble if this matter really got out of hand.

Unfortunately, the young and inexperienced person is different. She insists on arguing about right and wrong, and winning or losing. Now she has alarmed the big shot, which makes it very difficult for him to deal with.

I could only politely retort, "Calling the police doesn't make you any less right. Didn't Xiao Yao also spread rumors about the student? He said he cheated to get into college. If we really go to the police station, we'll both give you fifty lashes. We can't just ask the student to admit his mistake."

Yao Zhizhi was speechless. When filling out the job application, she specifically wrote that she wanted to stay in school to teach, just for the sake of the quiet environment in the school. Unexpectedly, there were so many troubles. It was really infuriating.

The process of a person growing up is the process of having his edges and corners worn away little by little by the world.

This sentence sounds reasonable, but she doesn't want to.

If everyone had no edges, if everyone had no personality, if everyone was numb, if they would just smile when they were wronged, if they would remain indifferent when they were humiliated, then there would be no Anti-Japanese War, and there would be no New China today.

If a person has lost his courage, he is truly dead.

She refused to give in and insisted, "I'm not at fault in this matter. Director Chi must either fire me or ask the students to apologize to me. There's no other option. I'm not afraid of being unemployed if I leave here. If I'm not welcome here, I'll find another place. That's all. I'm going to go prepare my lessons."

Director Chi was on the verge of collapse, so he could only sigh and go to find Yao Zhizhi's former class teacher, Teacher He. If he came forward, this hot-tempered guy would definitely listen to him, right?

Teacher He pondered for a long time before saying, "She's right. What's the problem? Others can question her about things that have no factual basis, so why can't she question them back? She didn't use a tone of affirmation, she was just questioning."

Director Chi was dumbfounded, blinking for a long time. Angered, he slammed the teacup in his hand down on the table. "Stop joining the young people in a commotion! Hurry up and make her give in. I'll have the student apologize, and then we can get away with the fifty lashes."

"I won't go." Teacher He was adamant and refused to cooperate. "Director Chi, think about it carefully. Does our school have such a tradition? Teachers are slandered for no reason and still have to bow to students? What's wrong with parents reporting it? I said the parents were disrupting the teaching order."

"You! If I were an ordinary person, would I be so anxious? Wouldn't that alarm a certain leader? It is indeed against the rules to let the teaching assistant teach. If someone reports it to the education department, I will also be punished." Director Chi was also helpless. There was a student with an unusual status in the class taught by Yao Zhizhi. The student's father was promoted in the army, and his uncle worked in a government compound. With pressure from both sides, he suspected that the school was giving the teaching assistant a back door, so he was naturally anxious.

Teacher He knew what was going on, but couldn't help but sigh, "Director Chi, it's only been a few decades, and you've already forgotten our school's glorious history?"

Director Chi couldn't help but sigh, "Times have changed. Do you think I don't want to protect the teachers in my college? It's just that the pressure is great, and I hope to compromise and take care of all aspects."

Teacher He smiled and said, "Since Director Chi is in such a dilemma, why not change Teacher Yao's curriculum and let her teach another class?"

"So that's the end of the matter then?"

"What else? You don't really want to give each of you fifty lashes, do you? Go out and ask people on the street. If you're walking peacefully and someone punches you, and you punch them back, will the police scold you or the one who started it?"

"Just protect her."

"I'm also protecting Director Chi's reputation. Don't forget, it was you who agreed to let Teacher Yao stay. If I were you, I'd be the first to get anxious when I heard students questioning Teacher Yao's abilities. Isn't that the same as accusing Director Chi of favoritism and corruption, using backdoors to get in incompetent people?"

Director Chi was silent. This was true.

Oh, forget it. If there is no other way, he can go and apologize to that leader and speak some good words to him. The school is in a period of transition, and it is not easy for him either.

The next day, Yao Zhizhi's courses were changed.

The students in Class 2 stretched their necks and waited for a long time, but Yao Zhizhi didn't show up. Instead, they saw Teacher Tian Cuiwen coming in with a textbook.

For a time, there was widespread grief.

Oh my God, kill them. Students from the next class said that Tian Cuiwen likes to call on students one by one to stand up and answer questions in class.

What a sin! Such a good teacher like Yao was driven away by anger.

When the get out of class was over, the students gathered around the male student who had caused the trouble, and urged him to go and apologize to Teacher Yao as soon as possible.

The boy just stiffened his neck and said nothing. He couldn't say anything because Teacher Yao knew his secret. He would suffer if he continued to be taught by Teacher Yao.

He simply closed his eyes and lay on the table pretending to be dead.

The classmates were very anxious and started to complain one after another.

"Xiao Dexian! Don't think we don't know you're pretending to be asleep. Hurry up and get up and speak!"

"That's right. Do you want to kill the whole class? Huh? Look at how boring Teacher Tian's lectures are. Not only is it boring, but he even has to call the roll. Isn't that annoying? Hurry and invite Teacher Yao back."

"Xiao Dexian, I just asked someone and found out that Teacher Xiao Zhaodi is your great-aunt. Did you hear the bad things about Teacher Yao from her?"

"Are I really going? Teacher Xiao is only around fifty, how come she's already an aunt?"

"She's a senior. Xiao Dexian, have you ever thought about why your aunt is throwing mud at Teacher Yao for no reason? Isn't it because the quality of her lectures is so low? She can't even pronounce the words correctly! She got in through connections, right? She feels guilty because she's outshined by Teacher Yao?"

"Yeah, I also think Teacher Xiao is the lowest level. Although Teacher Gu's teaching is old-fashioned, she is at least competent."

"Xiao Dexian, hurry up and stop pretending to be dead. Go talk to your aunt and explain things clearly. Otherwise, don't blame us for not bringing you to any activities in the future!"

"Yes, if you don't invite Teacher Yao back, you won't be able to attend class activities or dormitory activities in the future."

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, but unfortunately Xiao Dexian was stubborn and refused to get up no matter how hard his classmates pulled and dragged him.

Even with his pants ripped to a tangle, he still managed to stick his butt to the seat, and finally there was a "click" sound, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Xiao Dexian, who has no moral integrity when speaking, is now naked!

Some girls screamed and some laughed, but the boys were much more united, all laughing out loud.

Amidst the chaos, someone exclaimed, "Oh my god, Xiao Dexian, you're so small."

"How small is it? Let me see." Another boy came over, and Xiao Dexian was so scared that he quickly pulled up his torn pants and crawled under the desk.

As they were making a fuss, class started and the group had no choice but to stop and return to their seats to wait for execution.

It started and started again. The class lasted only five minutes in total. The rest of the time was spent calling on people to answer questions or standing up to read the textbook.

It’s so annoying. Such a boring class. Whoever likes it can take it.

For a moment, the whole classroom was filled with sighs and groans.

Tian Cuiwen knew what they were dissatisfied with, but there was nothing she could do. That was just her style, and she would do whatever she wanted.

To be honest, it's all Yao Zhizhi's fault. Everyone else is just fine with doing something similar, but she insists on going her own way, making up some humorous jokes to liven up the classroom atmosphere.

When everyone is at about the same level, moderation is the best choice.

To excel is to destroy oneself.

Tian Cuiwen curled her lips in indignation, not feeling that she had done anything wrong at all.

*

On the weekend, Lu Chunxin brought his whole family to visit Yao Zhizhi's home.

During the meal, she mentioned, "Teacher Zhang from our department has a relative who used to be a student in your Faculty of Arts, but was later expelled. She seems a little unhappy with you, so you should be careful."

Yao Zhizhi smiled calmly, "Thank you, Teacher Lu. I've already been publicly humiliated by students. It's no big deal. I want to see how many more tricks they have left to play."

Lu Chunxin heard a little and said comfortingly, "Thankfully, your teacher He has been speaking up for you, and Director Chi has also withstood the pressure. But from now on, you should be a little more gentle and don't confront students in class. You'll only hurt yourself when you hurt the enemy a thousand times. Why bother?"

The words were nice, but Yao Zhizhi didn't want to give in.

She was right, but Lu Chunxin meant well, so she smiled and nodded: "I'll try my best."

Seeing this, Lu Qiuhua asked what was going on.

She is a prison guard. Because she has never been married and has no children, she does not look like someone who is almost 40 years old. Instead, she looks like she is in her twenties.

Yao Zhizhi smiled and recounted what had happened. Unexpectedly, Lu Qiuhua sided with her and began to advise Lu Chunxin, "Sister, don't give rash advice. In my opinion, this is the smartest way for Teacher Yao to act. From now on, everyone will know she's a tough guy and that she has the real talent to challenge others. Naturally, no one will be so arrogant as to question her based on hearsay."

Yao Zhizhi was quite relieved. She didn't expect that the female prison guard she met for the first time actually understood her better than her colleagues at school.

She was very happy and started chatting with Lu Qiuhua immediately. They talked about the women's prison, about Lv Yuan, the man she met at the publishing house who stole manuscripts, but who has now reformed and is preparing to apply for a reduction in sentence. She also talked about how nervous she was when preparing for the exam, and how she calmed down the moment she finished the exam. She also talked about the capital's scenic spots and recent major cases.

The more they talked, the more they got along, so much so that Lu Chunxin, the biological sister, was left out by Lu Qiuhua.

Lu Chunxin couldn't help but sigh: "My sister, really."

Mao Shunchang smiled and said, "That's great. Your sister may look quite old, but she has a young mindset, so she and Xiao Yao can get along well."

Lu Chunxin was helpless: "By the way, Dad, have you checked the welfare home? Are there any babies there?"

"I have a few, but I haven't made up my mind yet. You can go and have a look with your mother later. I won't be able to choose either."

"Will Qiuhua be willing to adopt it?"

"Why wouldn't she want to? You don't want her to raise you. Your mom and I will help raise you for a few years, and you'll be able to go to school in no time."

"Well, I've raised her since she was little, so I'll give her a little kiss. Are you really not considering giving her one of my own?"

"Forget it, that's your own flesh and blood, your sister can't bear it."

"I'm worried, what if the child's parents come looking for me halfway through raising him?"

"No matter what, if I don't give it to you, whoever raises it will own it."

Naturally, these words reached Lu Qiuhua's ears. She had no objection. She just wanted to pay the money.

Before leaving, she told Yao Zhizhi something: "I have the stories of several female prisoners here. If you are interested, come to me next week and I will let you talk to them and see if you can help write a book for them."

"Okay, sister. I'll see you next week afternoon. I have a teaching meeting in the morning."

"Okay, let's go." Lu Qiuhua waved his hand. He had gained a lot today and made a new friend. It was great.

The next day, Yao Zhizhi arrived at the office and was stunned. Her lesson plan had been stolen, the grading sheet was missing, and her entire desk was a mess.

The most hateful thing was that her books were doused with water, her ballpoint pen and fountain pen were torn into pieces, and other things such as school documents and teaching plans were not spared.

This must be a deliberate, targeted retaliation against her.

She couldn't stand the humiliation and called the police directly.

After a morning of investigation, they finally identified Xiao Dexian from Class 2.

However, this was not a earth-shattering case. Xiao Dexian was taken away and detained for three days. After he wrote a letter of self-criticism, the case was closed.

Yao Zhizhi couldn't swallow this insult. After class that day, she called Qi Changxiao and followed Xiao Dexian, and soon arrived at the door of an ordinary-looking courtyard house.

Listening to the woman's deliberately soft voice, Qi Changxiao couldn't help but frown: "Can we have sex in there?"

"Yes, I'll watch. You call the police and catch him in the act."
