In her previous life, Old Lady Li toiled her entire life for her family. She raised three children and brought up her grandchildren, never enjoying a single day of peace. Yet, her sacrifices were n...
"You have several children in your family, and you asked me, a sophomore in high school, to go to the hospital to take care of a sick child! Are you mentally ill?" Teacher Cheng said unhappily.
As far as I know, Lin Xiaomian has two older brothers, and both of them are married.
When her second brother got married, the family was busy and she took a day off to help out at home.
Add her mother and two sisters-in-law, and it's a big group.
With so many children at home, it shouldn't be the turn of a child who is still in school to go to the hospital to take care of the sick.
The Lin family is just fooling around!
"I..." Zhang Jiao was speechless for a moment, and then explained: "We are not busy at work, but we really can't take leave. We have no choice."
Zhang Jiao felt that the class teacher was meddling too much. This was their family matter. What did it have to do with a kid?
Zhang Jiao originally wanted the teacher to talk about Lin Xiao냫 as well, but she didn't expect the other party to start by scolding their entire family for being sick.
Teacher Cheng didn't believe her lies. "Who are you trying to fool? If there was really a sick person in your family who needed care, wouldn't the factory give you a day or two off?"
Even we teachers have classes every day, but if there are urgent matters at home, we can take leave and the school can arrange one or two teachers to cover the class.
I just don't believe it. The Lin family's job is even more irreplaceable than being a teacher!
Zhang Jiao raised her hand to check the time and rolled her eyes impatiently. "Teacher, let me be frank. This is our family affair. Who we let go to the hospital to take care of the elderly is our family's business. You have no right to interfere."
"Our family is going to ask Lin Xiao for a week's leave today, just approve it."
Lin Xiao wiped her tears and said loudly: "I won't take leave! You just don't want to take care of Dad, and you don't want to deduct my salary, so you let me take leave to go to the hospital to take care of Dad."
"..." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Jiao's face.
Hey, this damn girl.
Teacher Cheng looked at Zhang Jiao with disdain and said, "Did you hear that? Lin Xiao doesn't want to ask for leave. As her class teacher, I can't approve this leave."
"You are just Lin Xiaobo's sister-in-law, not her guardian. If your family insists on giving Lin Xiaobo a week off, then let her parents come to the school to find me!"
Teacher Cheng was very angry. She had taught so many classes, but this was the first time she had met such a parent who did not take the children's studies seriously at all.
She also treats her daughter like a nanny or maid, letting her do everything.
Zhang Jiao: "My father-in-law is sick, why is he asking for leave for her? My father-in-law also wants his daughter to go to the hospital to take care of him."
"Your father-in-law is ill and can't come, so let your mother-in-law come and invite him!"
When she comes, I will ask her how her family could have come up with the idea of letting a student give up his studies and take leave to take care of a patient in the hospital?
Now is the second year of high school, which is a critical time for learning. A delay of one week will have a huge impact on students.
Zhang Jiao: “…”
If the mother-in-law knew that they asked Lin Xiaobo to go to the hospital to take care of her father-in-law, she would not only oppose it, but would also scold them. How could she help Lin Xiaobo to ask for leave?
Zhang Jiao and the others originally thought that even if Li Shuping would object, as long as they could convince Lin Xiaobo and get her to volunteer to go to the hospital to take care of Lin Yongbo, it would be because she wanted to be filial and take care of her own father, so Li Shuping would naturally have nothing to say.
But they didn't expect that the stinky girl Lin Xiao냫 would be unwilling!
"What are you still doing standing there? Hurry up and go in!" Teacher Cheng said to Lin Xiao with a stern face.
Lin Xiao glanced at Zhang Jiao, turned around and ran into the school.
"Lin Xiao..." Zhang Jiao wanted to call her, but Teacher Cheng glared at her.
Seeing that Lin Xiao had already entered the teaching building, Zhang Jiao had no choice but to stamp her feet and turn away.
Lin Xiao stood at the door of the classroom, took a deep breath, and then walked into the classroom.
She knew very well that she would be laughed at by her classmates once she entered the classroom.
Many people in the classroom were discussing Lin Xiaowan's affairs. When they saw her come in, they were quiet for a moment, and then became noisy again.
"Why did she get into the classroom?"
"She doesn't go to the hospital to take care of her dad?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, she is so unfilial."
"That's right, even my own father doesn't care."
Lin Xiao pretended not to hear anything. He walked to his seat and sat down. He took a book out of his bag and put it on the table, then stuffed his bag into the table.
"Lin Xiaobo, how could you be so cruel as not to go to the hospital to take care of your sick father? Tell us about it!" Zhao Siyu said to Lin Xiaobo with a smile.
His friends also followed suit, "That's right, tell us about it!"
Lin Xiao bit her lower lip and was about to speak when she heard Teacher Cheng's stern voice.
"What are you talking about? What does this have to do with you? You are so curious, why don't you pay attention to your studies?" Teacher Cheng walked into the classroom with his hands behind his back.
"Look at your shitty grades, and you still have the energy to worry about other people's affairs."
"Don't you think about it carefully? There are so many bankrupt state-owned factories now, and there are a lot of educated youth who can't find jobs. If you can't get into university, what can you do in the future?"
The classroom suddenly became quiet, and those with poor academic performance all curled their lips in annoyance.
Zhao Siyu was one of them. Although she came from a well-off family and her father was an official, her academic performance was really average, and she was often scolded by her parents because of her academic performance.
"I didn't approve Lin Xiao's leave. She has so many children, who can't take leave to go to the hospital to take care of the sick? It's not her turn as a student!"
"Students' most important task is to study! Now is the critical time for you to study. You must not let things that should not delay your studies delay your studies!"
The students who laughed at Lin Xiaobo lowered their heads and kept silent.
Teacher Cheng looked at Lin Xiaobo and said, "Lin Xiaobo, go home after school and ask your mother to come to school later."
I want to have a good talk with Lin Xiao's mother.
Her family didn't care about Lin Xiaowan's studies and allowed her, a student, to take leave to take care of a sick child. It was simply because they didn't realize the importance of studying and didn't know how good Lin Xiaowan was in studying and how bright her future would be if she got into university.
If I talk to Lin Xiao's mother and let her know, she might take it seriously.
I won't let things that are not Lin Xiao냫's business delay her studies.
Lin Xiao was startled and quickly explained: "Teacher Cheng, this has nothing to do with my mother, my mother..."
Before she finished speaking, Teacher Cheng waved her hand and interrupted her, "No more talking, I must see your mother at school next time."
After that, Teacher Cheng asked the Chinese class representative to lead everyone in morning reading, then turned and left the classroom.
Lin Xiao looked at Teacher Cheng's back as he left, and her face fell.
She didn't want to ask her parents for help, and she didn't want her mother to be scolded by the teacher because of her.
When Zhao Siyu heard the teacher ask Lin Xiaobo to invite her mother, she turned around and started whispering to Wang Meng and the others who were sitting behind her. No one knew what she was whispering about.
