Chapter 77: Sainthood in One Battle The man's flirting voice: "Don't move, let me...
On the second day of school, Xu Heye just came out of school and saw Lao Dong guarding the school gate with a cane.
She hid from people and quietly left.
But she didn't expect that Mr. Dong couldn't find her, but actually found her class teacher Chen Yuru.
"Xu Heye, your homeroom teacher wants to see you and asks you to go to her office." As school was about to end, the teacher of the last class said this.
Xu Heye frowned slightly.
What does Chen Yuru want to talk to her about?
"Teacher Chen, are you looking for me?" Xu Heye came to the teachers' office building, found Chen Yuru's office, and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Chen Yuru said.
When Xu Heye walked into the office, she found that the boss was there too.
A hint of annoyance flashed across her eyes, but she still called out, "Grandpa."
"Sit down." Chen Yuru pointed to the chair and asked Xu Heye to sit down.
After Xu Heye sat down, Chen Yuru came over and said to Old Dong, "Old man, Xu Heye is here. You can say whatever you want to say now."
Old Dong looked at Xu Heye and said to Chen Yuru, "Teacher, this is what happened. My granddaughter lives alone in a rented house outside, but not long ago, the neighborhood where she lives was attacked by a psychopathic murderer. Her grandmother is very worried about her safety and hopes that she can move back home.
"But we had some issues with her mother before, and she's been holding a grudge against us. Not only has she refused to move back, but she's also been rude to the elders. I came to the school to ask if they can handle things like this."
Chen Yuru's expression changed, and she said to Xu Heye, "Xu Heye, respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue in China. You—"
Xu Heye couldn't help but laugh. She said, "Teacher, I'm sorry to interrupt you. Even if you want to convict a criminal, you have to listen to both sides' statements first, right?"
Chen Yuru felt a little aggrieved, but she endured it: "...then you say."
"First of all, the grandmother my grandfather mentioned was not my biological grandmother, but my step-grandmother. She married my grandfather after my mother went to the countryside. She did not raise my mother, let alone a grandparent-grandchild relationship with me.
From the time I was born until now, she and I have only been together for a short time, when I first returned to Hucheng. During that time, our relationship was very strained. My step-grandmother was unwilling to accept me, so she was always sullen and snarky, making indirect accusations. I want to ask my grandfather, is this true?
Without waiting for the boss to answer, Xu Heye immediately said, "Don't make excuses, and don't lie. If you lie and make me look like a liar in front of the teacher, I will call the police. There are so many neighbors in the family compound, and more than one person must have heard about it. I'm sure the police can give me an explanation and help restore my reputation."
Old Dong: “…”
Chen Yuru: “…”
The boss's expression was grim, but he still said, "Yes, your grandmother was a little reluctant at the time, but hasn't she changed her mind now? She even came to you in person, wanting you to move back in, but what did you do? You, a junior, actually scolded her and spoke rudely to her, a grandmother..."
"Stop, stop, stop—" Xu Heye interrupted Lao Dong's spellcasting. "Let me confirm one thing first. She did come to see me. But I didn't scold her.
You don't believe me? Then I should call the police?
You know, we were standing next to the guard room and talking, and the guard heard everything clearly."
Old Dong: “…”
"Can you please stop calling the police?"
Xu Heye: "Let me ask you if you believe what I say!"
Old Dong felt very aggrieved, but he really didn't want to go to the police station.
"I trust you."
"That's fine." Xu Heye nodded. "Let's talk about this. However, I'm really curious, why did you suddenly change your mind? When we first registered our household registration, you wanted to kick us out immediately, but now you want me to go back. Why?"
"My uncle told me that my aunt and your stepson lost their jobs, and the family suddenly lost two sources of income. He was afraid that you would target me and ask me to fill the hole for you.
I didn’t believe it at the time and told my uncle that it was impossible.
My grandpa refused to let me live at home before, so how could he let me go back now just for a little rent money and the living expenses my parents give me?"
Old Dong's expression changed slightly.
Xu Heye: "Grandpa, you don't think so, do you?
Grandpa, please say no. Say you don’t want my or my parents’ money.
So next time I see my uncle, I will throw this in his face and slap him. No matter how shameless my grandfather is, he is not so shameless.
Please tell me quickly. If I tell you, I will go back tonight to cancel the rental and move back to the family compound.
Grandpa, don't worry, I'm easy to take care of.
I eat lunch at school every day and only eat breakfast and dinner at home. I don't eat much and I'm not picky. I can eat big fish and meat or simple meals.
And you don't have to support me for long. I'm in the third year of junior high school now and will graduate in one year. I'll have three years of high school and live on campus in college. It won't cost you much money in four years.
By the way, for the time being, consider the money you spend on me as making up for your debt to my mother.
Thinking back to when you were unwilling to give my mother the job and sent her to the countryside, and then turned around and gave the job to my stepson, my mother was very sad. Now that you are willing to make amends, I believe this will also ease my mother's inner sadness a little."
After Xu Heye finished speaking, she looked straight at Old Dong: "Grandpa, are you willing?"
"If you're willing, I can ask our teacher to be a witness. I'm sure our teacher will be willing." Xu Heye said, looking at Chen Yuru, "Teacher Chen, are you willing to be a witness? Witness the birth of a good father and a good grandfather."
Chen Yuru: “…”
Xu Heye: "Grandpa, it's never too late to correct your mistakes. If possible, I can also borrow paper and pen from the teacher to write down your great righteousness. I will write that Dong Changzhi is willing to take in his granddaughter Xu Heye for food and accommodation in his home free of charge in order to make up for his eldest daughter who went to the countryside early in her life.
This way, if any of our neighbors misunderstand you and scold you for even taking your granddaughter's money, I will throw this agreement, which records your full fatherly love, in their faces and make them slap loudly.
Old Dong: “…”
"Forget it, since you don't want to go back to live here, it's up to you." After saying that, Old Dong turned around and left.
He came to pick up Xu Heye and originally intended to use Xu Heye's living expenses to fill the gap in the family.
If he signed this agreement and brought someone back to occupy the family's territory and eat the family's rice and food, Wang Sumei would get angry and scratch his face. The boss and Liu Qiang would not agree either.
Forget it, this little girl is not to be trifled with. She has a sharp tongue and is always threatening to call the police.
If he really took her back, and she kept going to the police station every other day, how would he be able to live? He would be so embarrassed.
Mr. Dong backed out.
Xu Heye became a saint in one battle. She looked at Old Dong's hasty escape and a smile spread across her face: "Teacher Chen, do you have anything else to do? If not, I won't keep you from getting off work."
Chen Yuru: “…”
She looked at Xu Heye's smiling eyes and waved her hand: "It's okay, you can go."
Where did this monster come from? She is more slippery than an adult like her.
It's so annoying, it delays me from school.
Xu Heye snorted and came out of Chen Yuru's office. The campus was empty and most of the students had left. She decided to take a shortcut and walk straight through the green forest on campus, directly from Chen Yuru's office to the school gate.
As Xu Heye walked into the green forest, she heard a man's flirting voice not far away: "Don't move, let me touch you."
