Chapter 739: Low EQ Academic Master VS Beauty Class Beauty (10)
Grandma was discharged from the hospital on Sunday, and Shi Yi went to school normally on Monday. She was a person who valued her promises, and she promised Kangqiao that she would wear the shoes he bought to school, so she did so naturally. However, she didn't know that this pair of shoes would bring her so many rumors.
"Isn't Ren Shi's family in financial difficulty? How can she afford brand-name shoes?"
"Hey, hey, did you see that? The pair of shoes Ren Shi Yi is wearing seems to be XX brand, seven or eight hundred yuan. I just went shopping with my mother in the mall some time ago." "
The pair of shoes on Ren Shi Yi's feet are fake, right? Her family is so poor, how can she afford such expensive shoes."
"That pair of shoes doesn't look fake. Look at the fabric, the workmanship, and the stitching. It's impossible for a replica to have it. But where does Ren Shi Yi get the money to buy shoes?"
Wherever Shi Yi walked, male and female classmates gathered together to look at her. To be precise, they looked at the pair of sneakers on her feet. However, she did nothing wrong and was not afraid of anyone's gossip. She walked into the classroom with her schoolbag as usual.
"Well, I think it is necessary to tell the class teacher about this. Her family is so poor, and she is so vain. The class teacher should educate her."
"That's right. This pair of shoes is not cheap. My mother is a doctor and she was reluctant to buy it for me. There is only one grandmother in her family. The old lady has always been frugal, and it is even more impossible for her to buy it for her. I think she bought it secretly. I just don't know where she got the money."
"Yes, this matter must be told to the class teacher. It's a pity that she has such good grades. Her family is poor and she still buys such expensive brand-name shoes. If I were her grandmother, I would be angry to death."
"Yes, yes, let's go. Let's go and report it to the class teacher together."
Su Yunnuan and Chi Yan were very worried about Shi Yi, but they didn't know whether they should ask Shi Yi where the shoes came from. So, they hesitated for the whole morning self-study.
After the morning self-study, Shi Yi was invited to the office by the class teacher, Mr. Wu.
Wu Qing glanced at the pair of sneakers on Shi Yi's feet and knew that they were genuine brand-name shoes. He thought about the reactions of his classmates to Shi Yi wearing brand-name sneakers and felt a headache.
Other teachers were grading homework and correcting test papers. They seemed to be doing their own things, but in fact they were all looking at him. The news that Ren Shi Yi, who came from a poor family, wore brand-name shoes to school spread throughout the school during the morning self-study session. Now, all the teachers and leaders were watching how he, the head teacher, would solve the problem.
"Teacher Wu, do you have anything to do? If not, I'll go back. I have to go to the city to participate in the competition in the afternoon. I want to read more books." Shi Yi naturally knew the intention of the head teacher to call her here, but as long as the head teacher didn't tell her about it directly, she didn't intend to pay attention. Moreover, those sneak glances, mixed with disgust and disdain for her, made it difficult for her to like staying in this office. The most important thing was that the shoes were Kangqiao's good intentions. She didn't need to explain to everyone where the shoes came from, and she had no obligation to do so.
"I..." Facing such a good student with good grades and usually not causing trouble, Wu Qing, a grown man, found it difficult to say what his classmates had said.
He felt that people, whether they were rich or poor, all had self-esteem. There was nothing wrong with Shi Yi buying a pair of brand-name shoes. However, the impact was indeed a bit bad. If Shi Yi bought this pair of shoes with the living expenses sponsored by the female rich businessman, and it got out, what would she do if the female rich businessman did not sponsor her to go to college in the future!
His colleague's eyes looked over again, and he gritted his teeth and said bluntly, "Where did you get the shoes on your feet?"
"Bought." Shi Yi said briefly.
Wu Qing knew that they were bought, of course. What he wanted to ask was who bought them and how they were bought.
"Teacher, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll leave." The female teacher sitting in the corner looked at her like she was looking at a rat in a trash can. She was just wearing a pair of brand-name shoes. Could this irrelevant female teacher not have such a big malice towards her!
"Why are you still leaving? Your class teacher specially asked you to come here just to understand the situation. If you leave, who will explain to your class teacher? You are just a poor student. If your family conditions do not allow it, don't pretend to be rich. If I were your mother, I would definitely run away from home when I saw your vanity. Because, you are hopeless." The female teacher pushed her gold-rimmed glasses frame, and when she made an expression, all the flesh on her big round face was squeezed together. She was completely unaware, and she thought she was beautiful. She picked up a small mirror and started to apply lipstick on herself.
Since she mentioned her disappeared mother, Shi Yi didn't want to give her face, and directly retorted, "Teacher, your salary is not high, you are wearing famous brands, and your lipstick is also a famous brand. It doesn't look cheap. It's a pity that they can't save your appearance. However, you are a teacher and you use so many famous brands. Don't you feel vain?! Everyone has a desire for beauty, but you have to drag it into this. You have forgotten the professional ethics of being a teacher and caring for students."
The other teachers in the office laughed secretly, and some even laughed out loud. Normally, they looked down on female teachers who were good at dressing up but always dressed too much, but this female teacher felt good about herself. Shi Yi was indirectly teaching their colleagues how to behave.
"Hey... you little girl, your mouth is sharper than a blade." The female teacher who was ridiculed by her colleagues couldn't save face, so she threw the mirror, smashed the lipstick on the table, and strode towards the direction where she was standing. Shi Yi didn't want to conflict with her, so he turned around and walked out.
"Stop, don't leave. If you don't explain the problem of shoes clearly today, you don't have to go to class." Wu Qing now felt that this was not only a problem of a pair of shoes, but also a problem of students' views on money and respect for teachers. He could understand that the students were young and ignorant. However, he was the head teacher and he had the responsibility to teach her well.
"Is the teacher really curious about this pair of shoes?" Shi Yi looked at him straight, and he didn't expect her to be so direct, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Poor children cannot have the right to wear branded clothes? When a poor child wears a pair of shoes, everyone should stare at him like he is a monkey? Poor children do not deserve to wear a pair of good shoes? Are poor children not human beings?" Shi Yisi asked him repeatedly, stumping him.
The bell rang for class, and Shi Yi took off her shoes and held them in her hand. "If you think so, teacher, I will never wear these shoes to school again." She straightened her back and walked out. What she held in her hand did not look like a pair of shoes, but more like her fragile self-esteem.
Wu Qing scratched his hair in self-blame. How could he speak to a child with a strong self-esteem, sensitive and fragile, in an accusatory tone? Isn't this pushing her further away!
