objective scale
The pale pink rose stretched out its petals in the water, and the colorless liquid slightly seeped out a little light yellow, as clear as crystal.
"I have no objection to the school's handling of the matter," Li Wenxiu said with a faint smile, "so you should just 'besiege Wei' and not 'save Zhao'."
Jiang Qing didn't understand. "But teacher, you clearly didn't do anything wrong. Why are you being punished?"
"Then, can you tell me," Li Wenxiu gently looked at the two young students in front of her, "who decided whether I did the right thing or the wrong thing?"
Jiang Qing and Ye Meiyan were speechless.
Who else needs to judge?
“Everyone thinks so.”
"Yes, everyone. Who are these everyone?" Li Wenxiu agreed. "The students in Class 9 think I'm right, but the teachers at school think my approach is inappropriate."
"You two are supporting me from the perspective of students, and the school is punishing me based on hidden school rules. No one is wrong."
"Right or wrong itself is not that important, the position is what matters most."
Jiang Qing wasn't fooled by Li Wenxiu's words. "No, right and wrong are important in this matter. Since the school doesn't have any explicit regulations, they can't arbitrarily punish you. That's unfair."
Ye Meiyan looked at Li Wenxiu and said seriously, "Individual injustice also reflects the injustice of the entire system. Faced with this structural injustice, why can't we resist?"
Hearing this, Li Wenxiu couldn't help but sigh, he is still a child after all.
In their eyes, there is a clear dividing line between right and wrong.
"In the face of injustice, resistance is of course necessary," Li Wenxiu said, changing the subject. "But how can I be sure I'm on the side of justice?"
Jiang Qing opened her mouth to speak, but Li Wenxiu seemed to know what she was going to say.
"Perhaps, in your eyes now, I represent justice by showing that video, but that's not the case."
"That's just my wishful thinking. Students naturally put a beautifying filter on their teachers. Strip away all the inherent positions and let's think about a question."
Li Wenxiu's voice is like the gurgling of water, with a touch of narrative charm.
"In one school, a teacher, on a whim, played a sex education video in class without any prior review or approval from the school. The video then went viral in the classroom."
"Who can ensure that there is no inappropriate content, and who can guarantee that it will have a positive impact on students after watching it?"
"No one, not even the teacher himself, can be 100% sure." Li Wenxiu shook her head.
"As a grade administrator, upholding a responsible attitude towards students, do you think this teacher did anything wrong?"
Jiang Qing and Ye Meiyan were speechless.
They were unable to answer this question and finally began to understand what the teacher had said before.
"But..." Jiang Qing was stunned for a moment, muttering, "The video you showed is beneficial."
Li Wenxiu said with a smile: "The reason why a standard is a standard is that it is formed through the opinions of the majority and finally becomes a universally recognized objective yardstick. Before it is formed, everyone thinks that they are right and appropriate."
"You should have learned politics better than your teachers. You should know that idealism equals volatility and uncertainty."
Ye Meiyan calmly analyzed, "The school will punish you, not only because of the video, but also because you violated school procedures."
Li Wenxiu nodded approvingly.
"There is no relevant process in the first place, so what procedure could be violated?" Although Jiang Qing understood what the teacher meant, she still felt unfair.
Sex education itself is a lesson that the school lacks. If there are specific standards and procedures for reporting, why would Teacher Li not follow the procedures?
This is a paradox in itself.
All in all, it seemed that Teacher Li's punishment was unavoidable.
"It's precisely because the school is lacking that I want to show that video," Li Wenxiu said, adjusting the hem of her sky-blue skirt, which was piled with winding folds at the corners.
Jiang Qing looked at the teacher in surprise. Li Wenxiu had a calm face with a smile, as if she had expected everything.
Noticing Jiang Qing's gaze, Li Wenxiu's smile deepened. "I am your teacher."
"I do what I want to do, and you do what students should do, and study hard."
At that moment, Ye Meiyan understood what Teacher Li had not yet said. Someone had to be the first to stand up and make the school start to face this problem.
Even if the meager power cannot awaken anything, what does it matter?
Because she is their teacher, she is responsible for her students.
Ye Meiyan didn't believe that the video played in the classroom was a popular science video that Li Wenxiu found at random. It must have undergone careful inspection by Teacher Li before it appeared in front of all the students in Class 9.
It is precisely because the school has no regulations that Li Wenxiu stood up, and it is also because the school has no regulations that the school will not punish Teacher Li in black and white.
Teacher Li is walking in a gray area, and no one knows what aftershocks it will bring.
But now—
Ye Meiyan turned to look at Jiang Qing, and saw the girl holding a cup of scented tea, looking thoughtful.
Well, she was sure.
Aftershocks will create huge waves.
The warm temperature warmed Jiang Qing's fingertips, and the girl's eyes slowly lit up.
Teacher Li said he was wrong, but did not hinder their plan. What does this mean?
This means that Teacher Li admitted that there was a problem with her program, but deep down she still believed that her behavior was correct!
That’s right, that’s right. What’s wrong with their gentle, kind and beautiful teacher Li Wenxiu?
It's just slightly ahead of the times.
This era is so backward!!!
Jiang Qing's eyes were blazing. "Okay, teacher, I understand."
Li Wenxiu looked at the girl who suddenly became radiant with energy in surprise, and for a moment she couldn't follow her train of thought.
This is... understand what?
"Teacher, since you have experience," Jiang Qing put down the water cup, knocking the bottom of the cup on the coffee table, making a crisp sound when glass hits glass. She clasped her hands together, "Can you please help us check it?"
She enlarged the screen of her mobile phone and looked at Li Wenxiu eagerly.
Ye Meiyan glanced at Jiang Qing and could only say... she is worthy of it.
Li Wenxiu looked at Jiang Qing's bright eyes with a helpless smile, nodded indulgently, and took out a stack of papers from the coffee table.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with this brochure itself," she highlighted the key points on the paper, "but the bottom line is still to protect your own body."
"Many young people, precisely because of their ignorance and inexperience, and because they don't know how to protect themselves, are very likely to stumble in unfamiliar areas."
Jiang Qing nodded seriously and took notes. After hearing this, she asked curiously, "Teacher, have you seen it?"
Li Wenxiu was stunned for a moment by the question, and vaguely remembered the large patches of white paper flowers fluttering in the wind.
Jiang Qing: "Teacher?"
Li Wenxiu regained her composure and continued softly, "We must prioritize both the wording and the length..."
The sun was scorching the earth from high in the sky, and the refracted light was so strong in some places that it was a bit dazzling.
Jiang Qing fanned herself as she sat in the back seat of the car. Her butt sank into the back seat, feeling so soft and comfortable that she didn't want to move.
The air conditioner in the car was whirring, and the cool air enveloped her entire body. Jiang Qing's body tilted to the left and lay on Ye Meiyan's legs, changing her position.
Ye Meiyan's fingers were swiping on her phone, not forgetting to take a moment to look at the girl on her lap.
"Hot?" she asked. "Want some iced strawberries?"
Jiang Qing's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Ye Meiyan took out a hand and skillfully opened the car refrigerator, picked up a strawberry from it and put it into Jiang Qing's open mouth.
As soon as Jiang Qing took a bite of the cool and delicious strawberry, her eyes narrowed comfortably.
Chew, chew, chew. “Meiyan…” Chew, chew, chew. “You have no idea how hard I’ve been going lately.”
"Hmm?" Ye Meiyan put down her phone. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Qing swallowed the fruit in her mouth and opened her mouth again.
Ye Meiyan: ...
She picked up another big bright red strawberry, put it under her eyelids, and was too lazy to move to wait for the hungry red mouth to feed it.
The driver drove steadily, glancing back through the rearview mirror from time to time.
Ye Meiyan noticed it, she raised her eyebrows slightly and looked over. The next second, the driver quickly sat up straight and concentrated on driving.
Jiang Qing was unaware of this. She lay on her best friend's lap, as if she had returned to the moments in the future when she and her best friend could talk about anything.
She mentioned Li Qingyun, Li Liang and Jiang Qing.
"These clues are fragmentary and can't form a complete picture," Jiang Qing closed her eyes. "I always feel that only by confronting Li Qingyun can we get some clues that we have overlooked."
As Jiang Qing spoke, Ye Meiyan's mind was spinning with the relationship between the three people.
And Mina, between her and Jiang Qing...
A huge web of relationships gradually took shape in her mind, with Jiang Qing as the center and connected to everyone on the web.
"Where's Lin Nanyan?" Ye Meiyan suddenly asked, "Where did he go today?"
Jiang Qing turned over. She felt annoyed when this name was mentioned.
"I don't know." She murmured.
Ye Meiyan understood, "Are you still quarreling with him?"
Jiang Qing sat up suddenly. "Who had a quarrel with him? He and I are two independent people. I don't care where he goes."
Ye Meiyan looked at the girl whose fur stood up instantly, slowly smoothed out her wrinkled pants, and turned her head.
"He should be very concerned about this case, why would he ask for leave for no reason?"
Jiang Qing pouted unconsciously, revealing a little of her resentment in front of her best friend.
"What do you mean by 'for no reason'..." She muttered softly, "He has someone he likes."
Although the girl's voice was very soft, Ye Meiyan still heard it clearly.
What's going on?
Doesn’t Lin Nanyan like Jiang Jiang?
This is another person I like who suddenly jumped out from some corner.
Ye Meiyan asked hesitantly, "Where did you hear this unreliable news?"
"I saw it," Jiang Qing turned her head and exerted force in her hands, "I saw them kissing."
Ye Meiyan was extremely surprised. How could this be?
"Did you really see it?"
"I..." Jiang Qing paused for a moment. She didn't see clearly, but she saw the girl bending over. "Anyway, he admitted it himself."
Ye Meiyan vaguely guessed something from Jiang Qing's attitude and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lin Nanyan's brain can be donated to people in need if it is not in use.
How can our IQ regress to the level of primitive people?
She didn't need to think too much. She glanced at the crumpled paper that Jiang Qing was clutching tightly in her hand, and knew what was going on with just a trace of her hair.
Who is Lin Nanyan?
Class 9 is famous for being quiet, never proactive in talking to others, and having a very aloof demeanor.
Of course, this was Ye Meiyan's entire impression of Lin Nanyan before she met Jiang Jiang.
After that, she no longer saw it that way.
In front of Jiang Jiang, Lin Nanyan was talkative and liked to tease people, as if he was a completely different person.
That's it, what other girls could he like?
It really sounds like a fantasy.
