Is it that they don't care enough about their child or trust them too much? The situation is unknown.
Teacher Ye couldn't ask too many questions, but she couldn't help but wonder how to talk to Song Lili about it.
Don't underestimate the seemingly insignificant job of a teacher; there are many things to handle every day, and things can easily go wrong if you're not careful.
Especially the relationship with parents, it's really hard to describe!
When I encounter reasonable and understanding people from my hometown, I can talk to them properly. But when I encounter unreasonable and argumentative people, I wish I could disappear immediately and never be a teacher again.
Therefore, Ms. Ye is now feeling anxious and is thinking rapidly about how to say things in a way that avoids disagreements with the parents.
"It's like this." After licking her lips, Teacher Ye slowly began to speak, "Zhang Chen got into a fight with a classmate yesterday and beat him quite badly, so I've invited both of your parents over today to see how to handle this matter."
"Xiao Chen has learned to fight?" Song Lili looked at Teacher Ye in surprise, finding it unbelievable.
Xiao Chen has actually learned to fight? That's really surprising.
Teacher Ye: "..." The child is yours, why are you asking me this with such a surprised tone?
But I still had to smile and nod, "Yes, that's why..." and ask you to come over!
Teacher Ye didn't know what to say about Song Lili.
She is indeed elegant and poised, but looking at her attitude towards children, I feel a little dissatisfied.
How do you usually interact with the children? It seems like she, as the teacher, understands the children better than I do.
But Song Lili's calm demeanor relieved her; it was good that she wasn't angry.
After her initial surprise, Song Lili realized she had lost her composure and quickly composed herself, reverting to her usual calm and collected demeanor.
"Teacher Ye, may I ask what exactly happened?"
Song Lili's surprise was only momentary, after all, she had already prepared herself mentally before coming.
In this day and age, schools won't call parents unless there's a specific reason, and children are especially afraid of having their parents called.
So, being called over means the matter is quite serious.
Therefore, Song Lili didn't show too much shock; all she wanted to know was what had happened.
Unexpectedly, Teacher Ye also shook her head, saying, "I don't know either. I asked them, but neither of them would say anything, no matter how I asked."
At this point, Teacher Ye felt that she had failed in her duty by not asking why the fight had happened.
Song Lili could understand. Xiao Chen was smarter than other children from a young age and was precocious. He was determined to keep it from the teacher, so she knew she couldn't get anything out of him.
So she put that question aside for now, asking, "What about the other child's parents? Haven't they arrived yet?"
"not yet"
"In that case, I'll go find Zhang Chen first, and then come over to Teacher Ye's place later. We'll discuss how to resolve this once he arrives."
We don't even know what happened, so who knows how to resolve this?
The most urgent thing for Song Lili was to figure out what was going on.
Song Lili came to Xiao Chen's class and randomly grabbed a child, saying, "Classmate, please call Zhang Chen for me."
"Mom, when did you arrive?" Xiao Chen came out quickly, her eyes filled with nervousness as she looked at Song Lili, but she tried her best to calm herself down and not let others see her anxiety.
Seeing the fear flickering in Xiao Chen's eyes, Song Lili smiled slightly and said, "I just arrived. How much longer until class starts? I have something to tell you."
Having not found an opportunity last night, Song Lili now wanted to have a good talk with Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen glanced into the classroom and noticed many classmates staring curiously at him and Song Lili. He immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
As she spoke, Xiao Chen led Song Lili to the small garden downstairs. It was called a small garden, but it was really just a fenced-off area with grass and a few not-so-tall trees.
"Tell me, what exactly happened? You actually got into a fight with your classmate." Song Lili's tone was calm, and she wasn't angry.
"Mom, you know?" Xiao Chen looked at Song Lili with some surprise, then lowered her head timidly.
"I just went to see your homeroom teacher, and she told me." Song Lili nodded, not hiding anything. "Now can you tell me what happened?"
"I...I...I'm sorry." Xiao Chen didn't know what to say, stammering for a long time before finally bowing her head and apologizing.
Song Lili took a deep breath. "I'm not asking you to apologize, I'm asking you to tell me what happened. Only when I know what went wrong can I know how to handle it. Do you understand?"
Xiao Chen nodded and then shook his head, leaving Song Lili somewhat confused. Did he know or not?
"I... he deserved it, I... I couldn't help but hit him." Xiao Chen glanced cautiously at Song Lili before gritting her teeth and saying.
"He deserves a beating?" Song Lili raised an eyebrow. "What did he do that made you think he deserved a beating?" He even resorted to violence.
The fact that Xiao Chen took action shows that he was truly angry, which is why he lost his temper.
Song Lili was now curious about what had caused Xiao Chen to lose his composure.
Xiao Chen usually looks like she's about to see through the illusions of the world!
"Mom, please don't ask anymore." Xiao Chen lowered his head and didn't say anything; he just deserved a beating.
"You're keeping it from me?" Song Lili raised her eyebrows again. Why did this suddenly seem a bit interesting?
"No, it's just that what he said wasn't very nice. Mom, don't listen to him. Just know that he deserves to be hit."
Seeing that Song Lili wasn't angry, Xiao Chen gradually felt at ease, and her old self reappeared, no longer as cautious as before.
"What am I supposed to say when their parents come? Just that their kid deserves a beating?"
"Then I guess your mom will have to fight with other parents today," Song Lili said, somewhat amused and exasperated.
"What do those words have to do with me?" Song Lili asked tentatively, otherwise why didn't Xiao Chen tell her?
Song Lili thought about it for a moment and guessed it was related to her.
However, Song Lili was curious: how could such a young student be related to her?
What exactly did they say? How could they even bring her up, even though they're decades apart in age?!
"...Yes..." Xiao Chen hesitated for a long time before nodding. Her mother had already guessed, so there was no need to hide it.
"Then tell me, what could you say that would make me feel uncomfortable?" Song Lili found it amusing, yet touched by the child's kind intentions.
She believed that she had seen enough of the world over the years to withstand the words of these little brats, so she didn't take it to heart.
It's just a few unpleasant words, isn't it? She's heard them before, and quite often, so these tickling words won't make a fuss about her.
