Meng Chuyuan was a recognized abandoned wife in the wealthy circles. Her husband was rarely home, and her brother-in-law and mother-in-law were both notoriously bad-tempered.
Everyone laughed...
Chapter 152: Lack of Education
Lu Qianling has not yet found the person behind the malicious lights-out incident in the restroom last night, and was tricked again this morning.
The reason was that English homework had to be handed in in the morning, and the class representative collected the homework one by one, but Lu Qianling had clearly handed in her homework, but for some reason hers was not among the homework handed in.
When the English teacher came to find her, Lu Qianling not only explained to the teacher, but also asked the class representative. As a result, the class representative said that he had not seen her homework.
Because what she said was different from what the class representative said, the teacher's face changed immediately. He thought she was lying and asked her to hand in the homework.
Lu Qianling recounted the entire incident to Meng Chuyuan, feeling increasingly aggrieved. "I didn't lie. I already handed in my homework, and she still asked me to do it. I handed it to her for nothing."
What made Lu Qianling most angry was that the teacher was favoring her class representative and even thought that Lu Qianling was quibbling because she didn't do her homework.
Because of this, she had an argument with her English teacher in the afternoon, and was called out of class to stand in the corner as punishment without attending the class. She was also told that she would find time to talk to her parents.
"Where's your homework book?" Meng Chuyuan asked curiously, "Did you find it?"
Lu Qianling was so anxious that she almost roared: "I am sure and certain that I will leave it to her."
She only found out that she had to write an English composition when she arrived at school in the morning, and then she wrote it when the morning reading time was almost over.
Just then, the class representative came to her and urged her to write a few sentences in order to meet the required number of words. After she finished writing, she handed it in without even having time to check it.
Lu Qianling thought she could find the class representative to prove that she had handed in her homework, but she was outmaneuvered by the other party.
After what happened today, Lu Qianling felt very uncomfortable.
Not only did her classmates treat her like that, but her teacher also didn't trust her.
Mother Lu asked, "Could it be that it was left on your department representative's desk?"
"Mom, do you know how to grasp the key points? She collected my homework this morning and came to me to urge me to do it. After seeing the teacher, she said she didn't see my homework. That's what you call lying, okay?"
At one point, Lu Qianling really placed her hopes on the class representative, but who knew that she would be treated like this in the end? Even the teacher felt that she was not telling the truth.
Meng Chuyuan asked: "There are so many classmates in your class, isn't there anyone who can testify for you?"
"Yes, I asked my deskmate to help explain it, because we both saw the class representative come to collect the homework. After my deskmate finished speaking, she changed her story and said that she might have forgotten to collect so many homework assignments. If she forgot, why didn't she tell me when I asked her?"
If the Fanke representative had said he had forgotten at the beginning, Lu Qianling wouldn't have been so angry.
When the teacher suspected Lu Qianling of not handing in her homework, she became a little irritable and had a bad attitude. Even after the class representative changed her words and said she had forgotten, she still couldn't restore her image.
Mother Lu said, "It's not a big deal. Why did you contradict the teacher?"
She angrily said, "I don't care. As a teacher, she's so biased. Just because she's her class representative, a top student, she can treat me like this? So what if my grades are lower? I'm her student too. Why does she only listen to one side of the story?"
In the eyes of others, this may not be a big deal, but for Lu Qianling, it is more than just a misunderstanding.
Besides, Lu Qianling felt that the teacher was mixing personal feelings into handling the problem, which really made it hard for her to accept.
Meng Chuyuan said calmly, "Since the homework book is not in your hands and your class representative's explanation is vague, it's impossible for this homework to disappear out of thin air. So we have to find the homework book first and then go talk to the teacher."
"If I don't look for it, she will definitely think I hid it." Through this incident, Lu Qianling also knew that the teacher didn't like her, so it definitely didn't matter where the homework book was now.
Meng Chuyuan: "I have nothing to do tomorrow, I'll go to school with you."
"What are you going to do? Do you need to be taught a lesson?" Lu Qianling was unhappy when she heard that Meng Chuyuan wanted to go to the school with her to find the teacher. "The teachers at school love to make a fuss. I can bear the injustice, but she still wants to ask the parents."
"You did talk back to the teacher, so let's apologize and see how to resolve this matter."
Lu Qianling: "She doubted my character and didn't apologize to me."
There is only one reason why she doesn't hand in her homework, and that is when she doesn't know what the homework is and can't hand it in without writing it at all. But she will hand it in obediently later.
So she had nothing to lie about for just an assignment.
"As long as you behave better tomorrow and sincerely admit your mistake to the teacher, then I will ask her to apologize to you, okay?"
Meng Chuyuan believes that both parties are wrong in this matter.
However, as a student, Lu Qianling was the first to contradict the teacher, which was indeed wrong, but the teacher also caused psychological trauma to the child without understanding the situation clearly.
If this matter is not resolved properly, it will remain like a thorn and will make Lu Qianling remember it for the rest of her life.
The next morning, Meng Chuyuan got up and woke Lu Qianling up first, and then let her go to school as usual.
Lu Qianling didn't seem to have any intention of going to school, and was unwilling to get out of bed when the time came.
Meng Chuyuan knocked on her door and asked, "Are you up? Otherwise you will be late."
"I don't." She happened to have English class today and she didn't want to attend it at all.
"After what you did yesterday, the whole class knows about it. If you don't go to class today, it will seem like you're too weak to face the teacher. Do you understand?"
Lu Qianling hid in the quilt. After hearing Meng Chuyuan's words, she hesitated for a moment.
Some other students might not know the situation, and of course some were there to laugh at her. She made a big fuss yesterday, and if she didn't show up today, it would be a joke.
She thought about it carefully, and finally jumped out of bed, quickly washed and changed her clothes, and came out with her schoolbag.
Lu Qianling came out of the bedroom and saw Meng Chuyuan standing in the corridor waiting for her.
"Who said I'm insecure and guilty? I've already finished my homework, so why am I afraid they'll slander me?" Lu Qianling put on her schoolbag and immediately put on a positive look.
Meng Chuyuan nodded in satisfaction with her performance today, a smile on his face: "That's right."
When I came downstairs, Mother Lu was already dressed and sitting in the dining room eating breakfast.
"Mom, why did you get up so early?" Lu Qianling was a little surprised when she saw her mother.
Mother Lu drank some milk and said with a sense of despair, "I can't help it. I have to go to the company today."
Secretary Zheng explained that he needed to meet an important client today and asked Lu's mother to be there on time, otherwise there would be no one to sign the contract with the client.
If Meng Chuyuan hadn't wanted to accompany Lu Qianling to school, this glorious mission might not have fallen on Lu's mother.
Lu Qianling said calmly: "We are in the same boat. I still have to go to school."
