"My reason?!!" Automatically blocking out the last few words like 'or some other reasons' in Zhou Yu's words, Zhang's mother immediately stood up and got ready to quarrel with Zhou Yu just like she had quarreled with those women in the village before.

But Zhang's mother stood up and looked at Zhou Yu's young face excitedly. When she was about to spit on his face, she suddenly remembered that the person in front of her didn't seem to be the person she often quarreled with, but her daughter's class teacher.

Therefore, Zhang's mother swallowed the curse words that were about to come out of her mouth, and instead put on an unnatural smile, and explained to Zhou Yu in her Ruxu dialect version of Mandarin, which was basically not Mandarin, "Teacher, you may have really misunderstood! Old Zhang and I only have this one daughter. We love her so much, how could we possibly abuse her!"

Zhang's mother felt very wronged and aggrieved. She felt that she had given so much to her daughter, but the head teacher in front of her turned a blind eye.

Therefore, Zhang's mother thought she should explain to the head teacher that she had done a lot for Zhang Li and had not abused her daughter. "Mr. Zhang in our family worked alone in other places and was unwilling to spend a penny more just to save more money to support my daughter and me."

"I not only have to take care of our daughter Zhang Li at home, but I also have to do housework and work in the fields. When Zhang Li comes home from vacation, I have to cook and wash clothes for her. Yes, Zhang Li has to help me with the work when she comes home, but when she was working, I told her to read books well. In the end, I still have to do most of the work. How am I abusing her?!"

Looking at the middle-aged woman in front of him who was chattering and interrupting him, Zhou Yu felt a headache.

No, did I say you abused Zhang Li? You don't understand what I said or what? My original words were that you or some other reasons put pressure on your daughter. Why did you automatically misinterpret what others said?

Zhou Yu rubbed his temples and interrupted the middle-aged woman who was about to continue to talk to him, "Mother Zhang Li, I'll say it one last time, please don't interrupt me again. If you interrupt me again, I suggest you transfer your daughter to another school. No. 2 Middle School is not suitable for you two."

When she heard this, Zhang's mother was surprised. Although she didn't understand a lot of what Zhou Yu said, she still understood Zhou Yu's last warning to her.

Seeing Zhou Yu's unhappy expression, Zhang's mother smiled awkwardly and closed her mouth, not daring to speak anymore.

Seeing that Zhang's mother finally shut up, Zhou Yu reorganized his words and wanted to understand the details of the situation from the middle-aged woman in front of him, and then save the poor girl.

"Zhang Li's mother, I don't know what Zhang Li is like at home, but before the National Day, Zhang Li's condition was very abnormal." Zhou Yu considered and roughly told Zhang Li's previous situation to Zhang Li's mother.

It was not known whether it was out of habit or because Zhang's mother was born with a rebuttal personality. When Zhang's mother heard Zhou Yu say that Zhang Li studied until three in the morning every night and was already overloaded with studies, she did not show any distress. Instead, she sneered at what Zhou Yu said and immediately retorted, "Impossible! This damn girl can still study until three o'clock?!"

Zhou Yu couldn't stand it anymore and laughed coldly, "Why not? Are you accompanying her to study or have you installed a surveillance camera in Zhang Li's room to keep an eye on her? How can you be so sure?"

Mother Zhang was speechless and muttered quietly, "I know my daughter's character very well. You have only taught her for a few days? How can you understand my daughter better than me, her mother?"

I don’t know if she thought Zhou Yu couldn’t hear her whispering, or if the teacher in front of her couldn’t understand her speaking in dialect, but Zhang’s mother actually said such words in front of Zhou Yu. This made Zhou Yu angry for a moment, and he lost his patience to discuss Zhang Li’s problem with the woman in front of him.

In these few short minutes, Zhou Yu found that it was almost impossible to have a calm and friendly communication with the woman in front of him, so Zhou Yu decided to lay out the core of the problem in front of the woman.

"Let me be frank with you, Zhang Li's mother," Zhou Yu looked at Zhang's mother and said calmly, "You just said that you and Zhang Li's father spent 10,000 or 20,000 yuan to send your daughter to Ruxu No. 2 Middle School for repeat studies. Since you spent the money, you must have hoped that Zhang Li could get into a good university, study a good major, and have a good job and a good future after graduation."

Zhang's mother understood what I said and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's right! Teacher, you said that we spent so much money on her, hoping that Zhang Li could get into a good university, come back to her hometown after graduation to find a good job, make more money, support me and her father, and find a good family nearby to marry in the future to provide for us old couple in our old age!"

It’s a good idea. Have you made arrangements for Zhang Li’s second half of life?

Zhou Yu sneered and took the opportunity to take up the topic again. "Since you think so, then it's very simple. The premise of all your thoughts is that Zhang Li can get into a good university. If you can't even achieve the first step, how can you achieve the rest?"

Zhang's mother agreed with Zhou Yu's words. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Zhou Yu continue to say firmly, "I can make sure your daughter can get into a top university next year. But the premise of all this is that you must listen to me when it comes to Zhang Li's education."

For a person like Zhang's mother, you have to put visible benefits in front of her, so that she will listen to you obediently. Otherwise, she will hurt herself a thousand times, hurt her friends eight hundred times, and destroy everything without letting you have an easy life.

Sure enough, when Zhang's mother heard Zhou Yu's guarantee, she suddenly became a little excited.

Zhang's mother couldn't tell whether the teacher in front of her was capable or not, but at the parent-teacher meeting just now, other parents said that Teacher Zhou was very capable. Although she couldn't see or hear it clearly, she subconsciously thought that Teacher Zhou was a capable teacher.

Now this week, the teacher has promised her that Zhang Li will definitely be admitted to a top university in the college entrance examination next year. And for all this, Zhang's mother and her husband do not need to pay any price or other fees. This makes Zhang's mother feel that they have gotten a great deal.

"Teacher, you say! I will do whatever you say!" Zhang's mother patted her chest and promised.

Seeing that he and Zhang's mother had reached a preliminary consensus, Zhou Yu nodded slightly and prepared to speak, and said the three rules to Zhang's mother again, "I hope that the first thing you can do is not to scold your daughter casually, and give her more encouragement. Even if you can't encourage her, don't blame her, let alone complain about her."
