Chapter 304 Seeing the Light
A few people looked in the direction of the sound and saw an old lady standing at the door.
Su Nanzhi raised her eyebrows. She had seen this old lady before. She lived in the yard of Cheng Meiqi's house.
The old lady didn't feel uncomfortable at all when being stared at by several people, and she pulled a man wearing glasses over from the side.
"Guangming, you and Shanhua were classmates, you can testify."
When Ding Guangming saw Su Nanzhi, his face turned red instantly and he lowered his head in shame.
Old Mrs. Ding pretended not to see her grandson and pulled him into the yard.
"Big sister, my grandson Ding Guangming and your Shanhua were classmates in junior high school. I can testify that Cheng Meiqin had no teacher ethics and forced Shanhua to death."
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Ding Guangming muttered something awkwardly.
But the voice was too soft and Su Nanzhi and the others didn't hear it.
Old Lady Ding slapped him hard on the back. The sound was so clear that people couldn't help but shrink their heads.
"What did I tell you at home?"
"I usually ask you to be obedient, but I don't want you to be like a turtle when you are bullied."
Perhaps the "coward" character irritated Ding Guangming, and his voice suddenly became louder. "I'm willing to testify, and several classmates I know are also willing to testify."
Although Su Nanzhi was a little surprised by Ding Guangming's change of attitude, she couldn't care less at the moment.
She looked at the old couple of the Zhao family who had burst into tears at some point and immediately went forward to comfort them.
"Grandpa Zhao, Grandma Zhao, with us as witnesses, Cheng Meiqin will definitely receive the punishment she deserves."
Yan Hua, who was standing by, took out his notebook and said with a firm look, "Don't worry, old man. I'm here to seek justice for Shanhua. This time, let Cheng Meiqin experience the feeling of being pointed at by everyone."
A good report requires not only in-depth reporting, but also not just staying on the surface.
After Yan Hua came out of Zhao's house, he did not stop. Accompanied by Su Nanzhi and Ding Guangming, he went to meet other people who were willing to witness the incident that day.
It's just that courage doesn't grow with age for cowards.
Among the three people Ding Guangming mentioned who were willing to testify, the last one gave a vague answer. The other two, one directly refused, and the other even denied that Zhao Shanhua was bullied by Cheng Meiqi.
"I don't remember. Teacher Cheng might have a bad temper, but to say that she bullies students is a bit exaggerated."
Su Nanzhi couldn't remember the specific name of the girl who was talking to her, but she vaguely remembered that this girl had a hard time in the class back then.
But then again, how could Ding Guangming, a student who was bullied, huddle together for warmth with a classmate who was not bullied?
Time does not give cowards courage, but it makes cowards forget the painful times they once experienced.
"Lin Ping, you were scolded and beaten by Cheng Meiqi before. Have you forgotten it?" Ding Guangming, who had always been very silent in front of Su Nanzhi and Yan Hua, felt betrayed when he heard her words and couldn't help but shout out in anger.
Lin Ping's face looked a little ugly. After a long silence, she finally spoke.
"But Teacher Cheng is right. People like us from poor families won't achieve anything when we grow up..."
Su Nanzhi looked at her patched clothes, frowned and interrupted her.
"Why should a person of low character define my life? You are still young, don't define your life as a failure so early."
Hearing this, Lin Ping looked at Su Nanzhi. She narrowed her eyes, and a look of doubt flashed in her eyes, followed by shock.
"You...you are Su Nanzhi?"
It was obvious that she had just recognized Su Nanzhi.
"How come you've become a different person?"
Su Nanzhi curled the corners of her mouth and said, "I am Su Nanzhi."
Then he suddenly changed the subject and said, "I will take the college entrance examination this year."
Lin Ping didn't quite understand why she said that.
Su Nanzhi smiled faintly. "Cheng Meiqi once said that I would farm in the countryside until I died, but I will get into college, leave our village, leave Hongqi County, and leave the provincial capital. My future will be written by myself."
Lin Ping was shocked and said hesitantly, "That's great... but unfortunately I'm married..."
If she hadn't gotten married, would she still be able to take the college entrance exam?
Su Nanzhi looked at her slightly bulging belly and sighed in her heart. Even in later generations, there were many girls who should have been in school but entered society and families too early and became wives and mothers.
This is their choice, but it is also a choice that society forces them to make.
"Life never ends, and learning never stops." She stepped forward and held Lin Ping's hand, her tone tinged with worry. "And aren't you afraid that your children will end up like you, meeting a teacher like Cheng Meiqin?"
Lin Ping's face turned pale, and she stammered but couldn't say the words she had just said to excuse Cheng Meiqi.
A hint of understanding flashed in Su Nanzhi's eyes. People will only be moved when it is related to their own interests.
"We asked you to testify because we have evidence that will deal a fatal blow to Cheng Meiqin." Su Nanzhi said with a determined look on her face, "Cheng Meiqin will never stand a chance of turning things around this time. This is also an explanation to Shanhua and our former selves!"
The hesitation in Lin Ping's eyes completely disappeared with Su Nanzhi's words, and she nodded heavily.
To give an explanation to my past self, trash like Cheng Meiqi must be punished.
***
In the next few days, Su Nanzhi was busy promoting tractors in various villages during the day, and Yan Hua followed her to learn about the villagers' use of tractors.
On the first day they went out, they noticed someone following them, but neither of them said anything and pretended not to notice.
Later, the people who followed them found that the two went to various villages during the day and rested at home at night, so they relaxed their vigilance and did not notice that an old man came to visit Qin Dacang's house every night.
Under the light, Yan Hua looked at the letter in his hand, slapped the table from time to time, and cursed a few words when he was angry.
"The Cheng guy is such a piece of shit!"
"People like this should be shot."
As she spoke, she picked up the letter and showed it to Su Nanzhi who was standing beside her. "Look, this student said that Cheng Meiqin once asked the entire class to take turns scolding her in class. Is this what a teacher should do?"
Su Nanzhi glanced down, her eyes instantly filled with coldness.
Although Ding Guangming is a bit introverted, his grandmother is very cheerful. She will chat with a dog if it passes by on the street. With her superb social skills, Grandma Ding contacted many students who had taught Cheng Meiqi. Under her persuasion, many people wrote letters of complaint about Cheng Meiqi.
Grandpa Zhao was responsible for delivering the letter of complaint from the county town to Yan Hua, who was temporarily living in Qin Dacang's house.
Su Nanzhi closed the letter and looked at Yan Hua, a determined smile on her lips. "It's time to let these accusations see the light of day."
