The students who were still sitting were extremely anxious. What had they seen?
There were four receipts on the table.
The first sheet shows the amount of donations made by the class, and it is signed by Xia Juntao on behalf of the class.
The second document is signed by Song Yan, and the amount is 200 yuan.
The third and fourth cards have the same amount, and the names are Xia Juntao and Shen Ruomei.
The classroom buzzed with excitement about the large sum of money donated.
The whole class only had a little over 100 yuan in total.
Shen Ruomei tried hard to keep a straight face, but she was happiest inside.
Fourth Sister said that Duan Xueting instigated Wen Shuqin, and this grudge must be avenged.
That felt so good today.
Fourth Sister's two senior brothers must work hard to crush Duan Xueting here.
"How could this be? No way!" Duan Xueting couldn't believe it.
Chen Qiang slapped the table. "When we were donating money, Xia Juntao, Song Yan, and Shen Ruomei came to me and said it was money they earned selling goods during their winter break."
Shen Ruomei's initial plan was to help her sister-in-law, Song Yan, but Song Yan was financially well-off and didn't need the money. So they decided to donate it to the army instead.
However, this was a considerable sum of money, and they were worried about putting pressure on everyone. So, the three of them decided to donate anonymously and asked the school to keep it a secret.
But after what happened today, this matter can no longer be kept secret!
"How could this be? Is this receipt real?" Duan Xueting couldn't help but ask.
The cashier was also angry. "What's wrong with you, student? Are you trying to slander me without any evidence?"
Duan Xueting immediately realized she had misspoke. "No, no! I... I misunderstood!"
Director, this matter is my fault…
"Duan Xueting, I will hand this matter over to the Academic Affairs Office."
I must avoid any appearance of favoritism; I don't want to be labeled as biased.
Let the school decide how to handle this!
Alright, everyone, let's get ready for class!
Xu Pingzhi left with Chen Qiang and the cashier.
When Gu Yansong came in, he saw Duan Xueting still standing there, looking silly: This idiot was just trying to throw an egg against a rock, and even trying to drag him down with her. Haha!
I will not get involved in Song Yan's affairs.
...
Three days later, Duan Xueting's punishment came down; she had slandered a military family member. And because it happened to be during this special period, the punishment was more severe.
Duan Xueting received a major demerit, the kind that goes into her personnel file. She was also publicly criticized throughout the entire school.
Xia Juntao, Song Yan, and Shen Ruomei earned money during their winter and summer vacations and donated it to the military. This behavior is worthy of everyone's learning and has been praised by the whole school.
Everyone now knows about the relationship between Shen Ruomei and Song Yan.
No wonder Shen Ruomei was so nervous when Song Yan was pregnant; oh my, that's her constant protection.
"That's why I'm staying at my fourth sister's house for food and drinks!" Shen Ruomei said matter-of-factly.
Even though Grandpa Shen's last outburst had already aroused suspicion, and everyone was certainly speculating about their relationship, what did it matter to them, whether they were related or not?
It's none of my business, right? The problem is, if I talk too much, it will definitely offend Song Yan.
Who is Song Yan? He is Master Han's apprentice.
Who would want to annoy themselves over something trivial?
So in the past, no one really discussed the relationship between Shen Ruomei and Song Yan.
Now, Xia Juntao has also fully demonstrated his gentlemanly demeanor.
When Song Yan and Shen Ruomei were on duty, Xia Juntao took over all the responsibilities.
Song Yan was Xia Juntao's senior apprentice, so it was reasonable for him to help with the work. However, the fact that Shen Ruomei was also involved made it clear to any astute person that something was amiss.
However, no one was so tactless as to bring this up directly.
Don't bring up the issue of whether the generational order is right or wrong. This is a new society; there's no need for that now.
Song Yan was still somewhat worried about Duan Xueting's deep hostility and wanted to know the reason behind it.
Shen Ruomei went back to the compound to inquire.
Duan Xueting's grandfather's condition was getting worse, and Western medicine treatments hadn't shown any significant effect. Traditional Chinese medicine had also been tried, but with little success. It was Gu Yansong who had treated him initially.
They had heard about how Elder Han had cured the leader. So Elder Han had taught Gu Yansong! Even though Gu Yansong wasn't Elder Han's acknowledged disciple, his medical skills were already quite good. One can only imagine how skilled Elder Han was.
They used to have a hard time getting an appointment with Lao Han, and now it's even less likely they'll get one.
The privileges they have at home aren't enough to apply to Old Han.
The old man of the Leng family was also old and frail, and was tormented by illness to the point that he was almost as if he were dying.
The situation suddenly improved. Even though his family didn't want to talk about it, everyone found out. It was Old Han who personally came to their house to treat the old man.
Moreover, he saw patients every five days for a whole month. His family could easily find out why he was so dedicated.
This involves Shen Ruomei, Yueyue, and Song Yan.
The Duan family inquired more about Lao Han's affairs and naturally learned about Song Yan. Song Yan was Duan Xueting's classmate.
Since we're classmates, of course we can use that.
When Duan Xueting's family made her beg Song Yan, it was like a death sentence for her.
Duan Xueting and Shen Ruomei have been at odds since childhood. She and Song Yan are practically family; Duan Xueting disliked Song Yan from the first time they met.
Duan Xueting finally found someone she liked, Xia Juntao. However, Xia Juntao distanced himself from her because Song Yan was his junior uncle.
Duan Xueting considered herself to be from a good family, good-looking, and a college graduate. However, her first attempt at dating Su Rui failed because of Shen Ruomei. Her second attempt was with Song Yan, where she was met with indifference from Xia Juntao.
Duan Xueting, who was always arrogant, was furious.
