Chapter 36 Treating Them Like Fools
Zhuzi's mother seemed to be shouting something, and when she saw Xu Zhixia, her voice became even louder.
"See? It was this substitute teacher who beat my son like this!"
The onlookers all looked over at the same time, their eyes filled with surprise.
This teacher looks gentle, but I didn't expect that he would do such a thing.
Half an hour ago, Zhuzi's mother brought Zhuzi to the school gate, sat down and started crying without saying a word.
The guard was stunned and came over to ask what happened.
As more and more people gathered around, she howled, "Look at your new substitute teacher. He beat my son like this."
"My son, you have pity on me. The doctor said this arm of his will have an impact on him in the future."
"I know you teachers might use violence when educating children, but you can't, you can't..."
When she said this, she burst into tears, but the meaning behind it was self-evident.
The onlookers were filled with indignation: "Which teacher is this? How dare they treat children like this?"
"That's right. She's just a substitute teacher. Who gave her the right?"
"Poor kid, he suffered such cruel treatment in his last school."
"We must find her and give this child an explanation!"
Although the pillar doesn't look good, it has been kept white and tender at home. Once it is wrapped with bandages, it looks really real.
Thinking that their own children might also be bullied by this substitute teacher, everyone was fed up.
Your words and my words brought the atmosphere to a climax.
Xu Zhixia came over at this time.
When Zhuzi's mother saw her, she pointed at her and said, "Look everyone, she was the one who beat my son."
Everyone surrounded her, staring at her eagerly, demanding an explanation.
If it were any other little girl, she would have been scared and crying, at a loss as to what to do.
But Xu Zhixia had lived two lives after all, so she quickly calmed down and thought about the current situation.
She lowered her voice and asked doubtfully, "What is Gege saying? I don't understand. Who did I hurt?"
I have to say that being good-looking does have its advantages at certain times.
Everyone looked at her clear eyes and couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
Zhuzi's mother sensed their mood changes, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.
She pushed Zhuzi subtly, and Zhuzi understood and burst into tears: "Teacher Xu, I will be obedient. I will go home and get you something delicious. Please don't hit me anymore."
This sentence revealed so much information that everyone was stunned.
When he came to his senses, he glared at Xu Zhixia, and the expression on his face became even uglier.
Zhuzi is a child, how could a child lie?
If Xu Zhixia knew what they were thinking, she would definitely point it out directly.
Of course not, there is one right in front of them.
Looking around, she saw the pride in Zhuzi's mother's eyes, and she understood what was going on.
It turned out that this was what Wang Zhuang meant by giving her a hard time, and he actually used such a low-brow method.
She lowered her eyes, hiding the disdain in them.
When she looked up again, her eyes were red and she looked extremely weak.
"Zhu Zi, the teacher is so good to you, why do you want to slander the teacher?"
"If you have an opinion, you can speak up."
"Using this method, how will others view the teacher?"
After just a few words, Zhuzi felt a little guilty.
But thinking that as long as he could get Xu Zhixia away, he wouldn't have to attend that annoying class anymore, he felt that he was doing the right thing.
He puffed out his chest in a boastful manner, but avoided looking directly into Xu Zhixia's eyes.
Xu Zhixia sneered in her heart. She had given Zhuzi a chance, but he didn't cherish it.
She straightened her expression and asked, "Since you said I hit you, when did I hit you? Did anyone else see it?"
Zhuzi panicked and looked at his mother quickly.
Before she came over, her mother didn't tell him what to say if she encountered such a thing.
In front of everyone, Zhuzi's mother couldn't say much and could only wink at Zhuzi.
Unfortunately, Zhuzi didn't understand this time. Seeing that his mother didn't say anything for a long time, he simply stammered, "It was after school that day. You said my grades were bad and hit me."
Xu Zhixia continued to ask, "Then who did you say saw it?"
Zhuzi gritted his teeth and said, "Daniu saw it."
Last time, Da Niu told him that he didn’t want a teacher, so he will definitely speak up for him, right?
Xu Zhixia nodded, and seeing a familiar-looking student nearby, she called out to him, "Little classmate, could you please go to Class 1 and ask Daniel to come out?"
Didn’t they say she hit someone? Then let’s find someone to confront her.
Seeing her like this, people around her couldn't help but feel suspicious.
The principal rushed over and saw Xu Zhixia was at ease. After thinking for a moment, he did not stand out, but hid in the crowd.
This Teacher Xu... is more capable than he imagined. If that's the case, it wouldn't be a problem for the school to have another teacher.
Da Niu quickly caught up with him, his face flushed and he was out of breath from running.
As soon as he stopped, Zhuzi trotted over, grabbed his arm and walked forward.
"Daniu, do you think it was Teacher Xu who beat me up like this that night?"
He turned his back to the crowd and winked at Da Niu.
Unexpectedly, Da Niu just glanced at him and said honestly: "No, Teacher Xu is very good and never hits students."
Zhuzi was dumbfounded. Didn't Danniu hate teachers just as much as he did? Why did he suddenly change his tune?
He angrily cursed, "Daniu! You clearly said you hated studying, why didn't you speak for me?"
Daniu mustered up the courage to speak: "I do hate studying, but I don't hate Teacher Xu. She's a good teacher!"
He has seen all the efforts of Teacher Xu during this period, and has racked his brains to prepare lessons, arousing their interest in learning like telling a story.
The last time he whispered in class, Teacher Xu just nodded at him lightly and didn't say anything to him.
If it were Teacher Qi, he would have slapped his hands or asked him to stand outside.
A child of this age naturally knows what is right and what is wrong.
Zhuzi felt a surge of anger in his heart and clenched his fists to hit Da Niu.
Da Niu was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Just as he was about to be hit, Xu Zhixia hugged him and protected him with her back.
A seven-year-old child already has considerable strength.
Xu Zhixia groaned, stood up, pulled Da Niu to Haohao, and protected the two children behind him.
Her expression was cold: "Everyone should be clear now, right?"
"If I, Xu Zhixia, ever lay hands on any child, I will be struck by lightning!"
Swearing is useless, but swearing will let everyone see her sincerity.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else's expressions changed.
Who can’t see now that this is all a good show directed and acted by Zhuzi’s mother herself?
Really... treating them all as fools.
