Chapter 358 A Definitely a Bad Seed
"Mom, look at her!"
Su Shanshan was seething with anger. She stomped her foot at her mother and said, "What kind of things did she just say? Is she only satisfied when she ruins my marriage?"
Su's mother wanted to help her daughter, but she knew very well what was going on in her heart.
She's getting old, and her husband and youngest daughter are still on the farm.
In the end, the responsibility of caring for the elderly and seeing them off in their final days rests with their sons and daughters-in-law.
Moreover, what happened today was indeed the fault of the three grandsons.
"Xiaolan, what's wrong? Let's go home and talk behind closed doors, okay?"
Wei Xiaolan knew that family scandals should not be aired in public, but Xiaobao's life was about to be lost, so what did she care about saving face?
"No, it's better to make this clear here." Wei Xiaolan was determined this time. "I won't come back to this house until they move out!"
Su Shanshan was furious. "That's my home too! My mom and grandparents haven't said anything, so why are you making me move out!"
Pshaw, they really think they're something special.
Wei Xiaolan didn't argue with her, and directly took out 50 cents from her pocket and handed it to an old lady next to her.
"Auntie, could you please go to the police station up ahead and report to the police that someone here is trying to murder my son? We have witnesses and physical evidence!"
Upon hearing that she was going to call the police, Su Shanshan felt a little embarrassed. "Sister-in-law, do you have to make such a big deal out of this? It's normal for kids to fight and play..."
Worried that she might stir up trouble again, Su's mother quickly interrupted, "Alright, that's enough."
After saying that, she turned to her daughter-in-law and said in a humble voice, "Xiaolan, they were wrong in this matter, and it was also because I didn't teach them well. I will definitely teach them a good lesson when we get back, and I promise they will never do it again!"
Su Shanshan only realized what was happening at this moment and turned to look at the children.
"What exactly happened?"
The children's eyes darted around, and they couldn't utter a single word for a long time, while the older woman next to them was very helpful.
She recounted what had just happened in a vivid and detailed manner, and also repeated exactly what Wei Xiaolan had said.
She has a good memory, especially for gossip and small talk; she remembers everything perfectly.
Su Shanshan's first reaction was that it was impossible.
But when she met her eldest son's eyes and brows, which were exactly like her ex-husband's, and his cold, emotionless gaze, Su Shanshan completely panicked.
She knew it was all true.
In a moment of desperation, Su Shanshan raised her hand and slapped the boss.
"Are you stupid? Your little brother is still so young. No matter how much you love him, you can't feed him something so big! He'll choke! Don't you know that?!"
Even at this point, she could still say those words without changing her expression, which Jiang Si truly admired.
Wei Xiaolan snorted coldly.
Fortunately, the old lady was quick-witted; as soon as Su Shanshan questioned her son, she hurriedly took the money and went to report to the police.
Su Shanshan was completely unaware of this.
He pressed down on the children's heads, saying, "You all quickly apologize to your aunt!"
The third brother was a stubborn fellow, and when Su Shanshan held him down like that, he immediately started yelling.
"I did nothing wrong! I won't apologize! It's all that bad woman's fault for giving birth to such a troublesome child."
"It was him! He stole our things!"
"And Grandma, she's biased too. She used to save the best food for us, but now she gives it all to Xiaobao!"
After saying that, he pointed at Su's mother, then at Wei Xiaolan and her son, "I hate you!"
These words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Su Shanshan looked at her son in disbelief.
Su's mother was also quite angry.
She had always thought she had treated them well, but she never expected that the child would say such hurtful things.
The police officers arrived at this time. Normally, for such a minor matter, they would just give a few words of reprimand and that would be the end of it.
But with National Day approaching, the square is bustling with people.
These people were arguing and blocking the way, which drew crowds of onlookers, three layers deep.
The police officers had no choice but to take them all back to the police station.
“These kids are a complete waste of their potential,” Xu Mingjuan said after the crowd dispersed.
Jiang Si remained noncommittal, saying, "The Yang family has been rotten to the core since my grandfather's generation; there's no hope of saving them."
Sensing the hidden meaning in Jiang Si's words, Hu Meili and Xu Mingjuan both looked over curiously.
"Sister Si, do you know them?"
Jiang Si did not hide anything.
However, this is a long story, so she only said a few words concisely.
The two were utterly shocked upon hearing this.
I used to think that cuckoos were inherently bad birds, taking over other birds' nests and making other birds raise their chicks.
The first thing they do after hatching is to push all the eggs out of the nest with their backs.
I never imagined that there would be people like cuckoos in this world.
Isn't this just a classic case of a bad seed?
"Bad seeds are not scary; after all, they are a very small minority."
Hu Meili said with lingering fear, "I thought they had been indoctrinated with something at school."
She spoke very softly, but Jiang Si still heard her.
There were many people and distractions in the square, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After the children had all gone to bed that night, she brewed a pot of jasmine tea. As they sat on the veranda admiring the moon, Jiang Si asked the question that had been on her mind.
She had found it a little strange when she first heard that Teacher Hu was going to bring her two children, Weidong and Weimin, to Beijing.
Jiang Si knew very well how much Teacher Hu cared about the two children's studies.
And there won't be a National Day holiday this time.
Logically speaking, given Mr. Hu's personality, it's impossible for him to ask for such a long leave for the two children.
Recalling what she had overheard in the square that evening, Jiang Si asked, "Did something happen at the school?"
It's a rare occasion for us to get together, and the two sisters-in-law originally didn't plan to talk about these unpleasant things.
But since Jiang Si had already asked, they started talking.
"To be honest, things are quite chaotic on the island this year," Hu Meili sighed.
This story begins at the beginning of the year.
At that time, the provincial military district assigned a group of teachers who had just graduated from university the previous year to the Fourth Division.
This was originally a good thing, but after these teachers came in, they copied the methods they used in universities onto primary and secondary school students.
They canceled all the academic classes that could be canceled and started a model of learning from workers, farmers, and soldiers.
Red Squads were established in each grade.
As a result, the children spend all their time at school doing things like fighting and repairing.
The few subjects they teach are not taught properly by the teachers.
It's one thing to not teach properly, but to even interfere with students' self-study.
“Wei Dong’s grades used to be far ahead of his peers, and he had almost mastered the elementary school curriculum on his own.”
"But when the new teacher found out, he didn't say a word of praise. Instead, in front of all the teachers and students, he said that there was something wrong with his thinking!"
"My husband, Lao Xiao, was furious, so he went to the school to talk to the teacher."
