Chapter 347
The leader didn't see anything, but instead saw a guy who was gloating like a clown.
Huang Yanfang, who had argued with Su Miao before, had noticed Su Miao as early as when she was pulled to the front of the list.
At this moment, Huang Yanfang's eyes flashed with a malicious light, and with a hypocritical smile on her face, she immediately said to Su Miao in a sarcastic tone: "Ah! Su Miao, you are here too. You must have heard what the students said just now. Why don't you explain?"
The tone of his voice sounded as if he was waiting to see Su Miao make a fool of herself.
Su Miao looked puzzled. She looked directly at Huang Yanfang and asked calmly, "What do you want to explain?"
Huang Yanfang seemed to have anticipated her question. She raised her chin proudly and said loudly, "Of course, to explain why you didn't donate."
But Su Miao didn't lose his composure as she had hoped. Instead, he said calmly, "How do you know I didn't donate? Doesn't having my name on the list mean I didn't donate? Besides these 50 students listed, did all the other students also not donate?"
Huang Yanfang was choked for a moment, but quickly recovered and argued, "Even if you donated money, the fact that you didn't even make it onto the list proves that you didn't donate much."
"So is there a minimum donation limit this time? Isn't it voluntary? Do all the students who didn't make the list also need to explain why they didn't donate much?"
After Su Miao said this, everyone came to their senses.
If you think about it carefully, there are indeed only 50 people on this list, and the vast majority of students who donated money in the school are not even on the list.
But this does not mean that their love is wiped out. Everyone's financial situation is different, and the amount of donations they can make is naturally different, but their intentions are the same.
Although Su Miao's squad leader did not directly receive the donation from Su Miao, he agreed with what Su Miao had just said.
He stood up and said with a serious and earnest expression, "Student Su Miao is right. This donation was originally completely voluntary. The original intention of setting up the charity list was to encourage and thank those students who actively donated. If it becomes a tool for comparison and blackmailing others, then it will run counter to the original purpose of our donation."
"Yeah, I'm not on the list, I just donated 1 dollar. That 1 dollar was what I saved up with my breakfast money this week. If you say so, doesn't that mean my donation is meaningless?" A short student in the crowd said angrily.
Another student wearing glasses chimed in, saying, "That's really heartbreaking. Everyone knows that donating is just about showing your intention. How can you force people to donate a certain amount and even criticize students who didn't make the list?"
For a moment, some students who were not on the list felt that Huang Yanfang's words were directed at them, and they expressed their dissatisfaction one after another.
However, Huang Yanfang didn't care about other people's opinions at all. She seemed to have set her sights on Su Miao. She stared at him intently and continued to ask, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Did you donate at all? If you just tell me how much you donated, no one will say anything."
"Oh, now that you've said it, no one's going to say anything? Liang Manman donated so much and still people are talking about it."
Hearing her sarcastic words, the students who had just been discussing Liang Manman suddenly looked embarrassed.
Although they thought they were just chatting casually and had no ill intentions, when someone said it so bluntly in public, they realized that their behavior was indeed inappropriate. It was like over-pickled sauerkraut, which was not only so sour that it made your teeth ache, but also had a disgusting stench.
Su Miao said loudly, "Even if no donations were made, it doesn't mean that any student lacks compassion. Perhaps some students' families have limited financial resources and face many difficulties in their own lives. In this case, even if they cannot donate money, their sympathy and concern for the people in the disaster area are also precious manifestations of love.
There are many ways to express love, not just through donations. How can we label a student as loving or unloving based on whether or not they donate, or the amount they donate?
One strategy for confrontation is to develop allies. When individuals or organizations face conflicts, if they rely solely on their own limited strength to deal with them, they will often find themselves isolated and helpless, and unable to cope.
At this time, developing allies becomes a very wise way to break the deadlock.
Spread the originally isolated points of conflict and turn them into a problem with a wider scope and impact, thereby involving more forces and turning the conflict that was originally directed only at oneself into a common conflict directed at the majority of people.
Many times, once you reach this point, you don’t even need to take action yourself.
As expected, Su Miao's words made more students dissatisfied with Huang Yanfang, and the scene was in chaos.
The teacher in charge of fundraising had just finished posting the list and went back to the office to pack up and leave work. He happened to walk over and heard their argument.
The teacher frowned, a worried look on his face as he pushed through the crowd and walked in, asking, "What happened? Why is it so noisy?"
Seeing this, the students around started talking to the teacher about the argument that had just taken place.
When the teacher heard that the controversial person was Su Miao, his already frowned brows furrowed even tighter.
This teacher works in the administrative office. He is mainly responsible for administrative affairs and does not take on teaching tasks, so he was not very familiar with Su Miao before.
But a few days ago, she personally received a 100 yuan donation from Su Miao's homeroom teacher. At that time, she sighed with Teacher Huang that it was rare to find students who did not care about false reputation. She did not expect to see such a thing today.
“Who said Su Miao didn’t donate? Not only did she donate, she donated quite a bit. It’s just that she’s a low-key person and doesn’t want to be on the list.
Moreover, classmates, we organized a donation for Lan County this time out of care and help for the people in the disaster-stricken areas. There is no size of love. No matter there is a donation or how much it is, as long as there is a heart, it is enough.
Okay, let's all go. Don't question your classmates over such meaningless things anymore."
Su Miao turned around and saw Hu Xiaodie and Meng Jiajia looking at her with admiration: "Su Miao, I knew you were good at talking when you cut in line before, but I didn't expect you to be even better today."
Su Miao smiled lightly and said, "It's just basic operation. I didn't perform well last time because I was dizzy."
She thought about what happened just now and asked the two of them, "By the way, did you notice which classmate mentioned my name first?"
