As a mother, of course I want every child to be well.
Li Ping said seriously, "But if I were to manage, I would have to be like a teacher, able to criticize and punish, otherwise I wouldn't be able to control them."
Li Guoliang nodded, "That's a must. Since you've put it that way, then find time to tutor them in the future. Their grades are just too bad. In such a good world, how can they not appreciate it!"
The Li Aihong sisters and Li Aidang immediately shuddered.
Li Aihong said, "Dad, I can learn by myself. I don't need my older sister to teach me."
Li Guoliang simply ignored it. If he could study, he wouldn't always get such bad grades on tests.
Li Ping glanced at her younger siblings, then went inside to put her things away. She planned to go to school and learn more from Sister Su Yu about how to discipline students.
Sister Su Yu can even control Xu Lili, she must have a way.
Su Yu didn't go home, but went with her boyfriend to the municipal government compound to have dinner with Song's parents.
She hadn't visited Old Song's house in a long time. Old Song's mother specially prepared a delicious meal for her and asked her to come over.
Knowing about Su Yu's achievements at school, Song's father was overjoyed and insisted on having another drink, but Song's mother stopped him.
"Don't use Su's name to drink alcohol."
Mr. Song touched his nose, feeling embarrassed at having lost face in front of his future daughter-in-law.
Su Yu smiled and said, "Uncle, Auntie is doing this for your own good. You still can't drink this liquor. But I've heard that some medicinal wines are good for your health. I'll try to find some for you later."
Upon hearing that there was also a medicinal wine that was good for one's health, Song's father said, "Alright, alright, what kind of medicinal wine is it? I'll go find it myself. How can I let you find it?"
"It's alright. Our school has students from all over the country, and we have a wider network of connections. It's no big deal."
Song Ma said, "Look at you, you're causing Su so much trouble because of your mouth."
"Su is filial!" said Song's father. He thought it would be better if his son were a daughter; daughters are more filial. Unlike his son, who only makes him angry.
Song Ma rolled her eyes at him, then looked at the smiling Su Yu and said, "Your brother is going to join the army. Where is he planning to go? Do you want Old Song and me to help you decide?"
The couple came from the military and knew a lot about military affairs.
Su Yu smiled and said, "It depends on how the army assigns soldiers. Anyway, isn't being a soldier just like being a brick? You just have to go wherever you're needed. As long as you can be part of the country's walls, it's the same wherever you are."
Upon hearing this, Song's father excitedly slammed his fist on the table. "Su is right! Aren't we soldiers the walls of the nation? Whoever dares to come, we'll have to be destroyed! No way, I have to have another drink because of Su's words. Old Qin, you can't stop me."
Song Ma: "..."
After dinner, Song Ma secretly exchanged a few words with Secretary Song, making Secretary Song blush and feel awkward before letting Secretary Song take Su Yu home.
As soon as the two went downstairs, they saw Vice Mayor Xu's wife taking a stroll downstairs, but Su Yu felt that she was waiting for her.
Seeing Su Yu come down, Vice Mayor Xu's wife looked a little unhappy, but she still came over and said, "Su, it's been a long time."
"Yes, Auntie, how have you been lately?"
"Everything is fine, it's just that Lili is worrying me. That's why she came back crying today."
Su Yu sighed, "This is really distressing. This matter has blown up so much; the students are all indignant, and even the school leaders have been alerted. If it's not dealt with, I'm worried the students will come and complain to outsiders, and then..."
Vice Mayor Xu's wife's heart skipped a beat, but she said calmly, "You really don't have any ideas at all?"
"Auntie, you think too highly of me," Su Yu said with a smile. "If you can't do it, how could I possibly do it? I think you'd be better off going to the school leaders. If they're unhappy, I could be in their shoes too."
Having said all that, Vice Mayor Xu's wife had nothing to say. But she still said, "Lili, you've given her too much work."
Hearing Vice Mayor Xu's wife say this, Su Yu's face also showed some anger. "Auntie, if Lili really does this, then it really breaks my heart. As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the more severe the criticism. She can't do important things. If I don't arrange other things for her, others will have already started to dislike her. Auntie, if you can't understand my approach, you can discuss it with Vice Mayor Xu."
After she finished speaking, she angrily dragged Secretary Song away.
Secretary Song followed behind with a stern face.
Vice Mayor Xu's wife was stunned for a moment, then went upstairs, feeling dejected. She realized she had come to the wrong person—a student, how much help could she possibly offer?
Once outside, Su Yu got into the car and put her arm around Secretary Song's waist, laughing, "Do you think she'll go to see the school leaders?"
"Probably," Secretary Song said.
Su Yu smiled and said, "Definitely. I remember how many times she contacted you, when she contacted her, and who she contacted. I'll leave you a copy later; it'll be a record when Secretary Qiu needs it."
Not doing something now doesn't mean ignoring it. It means saving it for later, when it's needed, to strike decisively.
At Vice Mayor Xu's home.
After Vice Mayor Xu's wife returned, she complained to her husband about the matter. Su Yu couldn't help, so she still had to go to the school.
"Why would you go? Aren't you ashamed?" Vice Mayor Xu said angrily.
His wife went to the school several times because of this trivial matter involving their daughter, but in the end, their daughter was still expelled from the student council. Not only did all that work go to waste, but they also incurred favors and lost face.
Vice Mayor Xu's wife said, "Then what should we do? Can you tolerate such an embarrassing thing? Anyway, I have to go and find them to get to the bottom of this."
