Chapter 60: It's better than cheating and denying it.
Big Fatty lowered his head and mumbled an "Mmm".
Just then, the mother and son's gazes swept over, and Xu Bai happened to block the fat boy. The boy immediately saw the rock candy apple in Xu Bai's hand and subconsciously swallowed.
The woman's expression immediately changed: "Zesheng, you must remember, you only came to this poor place for a month as an exchange to please your father. You do not belong here. Do not pick up any bad habits, and do not eat any poor food that would lower your status!"
"You should learn from your brother and become a great musician when you grow up! Your brother never touches this kind of dirty stuff!"
Xu Bai:? ? ?
Looking at the apple in my hand, I thought, "Does eating an apple lower my status?"
I felt subtly insulted!
Seeing the fear on her son's face, the woman softened her tone: "And you forgot, you're allergic to apples. If you eat too many, you'll get rashes, and Mom will worry."
The boy subconsciously scratched the back of his ear, then covered it up to hide it.
Tu Yao stared at the mother and son the whole time. When she saw the boy's action, she was stunned for a moment. The next second, she suddenly let go of Da Pang's hand, walked to Xu Chi's side, and tilted her head to look behind the boy's ear.
Xu Chi lowered his eyes, chuckled softly, turned his head and leaned closer to whisper, "I saw it, there is."
Tu Yao's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?"
Xu Chi nodded.
The two seemed to be speaking in cryptic language, leaving Xu Bai completely baffled.
Tu Yao went back and whispered to Da Pang, "Has your school been giving out fruit after meals lately?"
The town's school occasionally receives donations from outside, mostly for meal subsidies.
Big Fatty nodded: "Yes."
"Do you have any apples?"
Big Fatty shook his head: "No."
He glanced at the mother and son across from him, then leaned closer and whispered, "Because Wei Zesheng's mother said she doesn't want the school to give out apples this month."
Wei Zesheng is the boy in front of me, his new deskmate.
Big Fatty sighed and said in a low voice, "Little Mao, why don't we go back instead of going to the parent-teacher conference?"
Wei Zesheng's mother will definitely look down on Xiao Mao just like she looked down on his mother yesterday.
Tu Yao's smile grew wider and wider. "Why don't you go?"
She rubbed her chubby head: "Your deskmate lied to you, but I'm going anyway!"
Then Tu Yao directly took Da Pang's hand and walked out of the blind spot with an open and righteous air, swaggering past the mother and child in front of the limousine.
Then he stopped and gave a friendly smile.
After laughing, he continued walking.
Mrs. Wei's face immediately darkened: "Didn't we persuade him to leave yesterday? Why is he here again?"
"And who is that girl?"
Wei Zesheng pursed his lips, his face turning slightly pale. This must be Xiao Mao, whom his new deskmate often talked about.
Those rice cakes... were made by Xiao Mao.
But he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Mrs. Wei then showed an approving expression: "That's right, that's correct. There's no need to get to know people who are destined to be from a lower class than you."
After saying that, the mother and son walked towards the school gate.
"No... Uncle, is she crazy? We're all the same kind of people, what's with her acting so high and mighty??? Whose family is she anyway!"
Xu Bai took a big bite of the apple, making a loud crunching sound, but he couldn't suppress the anger that was welling up inside him.
Xu Chi's gaze swept over the limousine, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "I thought you would know."
Xu Bai:?
Xu Bai looked completely bewildered: "How should I know?"
Xu Chi was silent for a few seconds, then reminded him, "Didn't you hear? That child's surname is Wei."
“Wei…”
Xu Bai searched his memory, and after a few seconds, as if he had just realized something, his expression changed: "It's... that Wei?"
Chu Meng's maternal uncle's family... seems to share the surname Wei...
Xu Bai couldn't help but glance at Xu Chi. Two months ago, his uncle had just returned to the country and had dealt with a group of collateral branches.
One of them was an uncle named Xu Feng, who was rescued by Chu Meng after accidentally falling into the water ten years ago. Out of gratitude for being saved, he often helped the Bai family and also took care of the Wei family.
After Xu Feng was dismissed by his uncle, the Bai and Wei families naturally fell into a predicament as well.
Xu Bai's thoughts were wandering, but Chu Meng must have valued their friendship, as she hadn't asked him for help with this matter.
Xu Chi's gaze was indifferent as he twirled the bamboo skewer in his hand a few times.
When he initially punished Xu Feng, the charge was that he had committed moral failings and was of poor character. The Wei family, however, catered to his preferences by sending their son to a rural primary school as a donation to improve their reputation.
As a result, he caused trouble for his new friend.
"Xu Chi! Xu Bai!"
Just then, the director's voice came from behind.
The two looked back and saw the remaining van from the production crew parked nearby.
As soon as the car door opened, Tu Chaoxi and Nan Ke headed straight for Xuchi.
"What's going on? Did she come to Da Pang's parent-teacher conference?"
Tu Chaoxi moved into Tu Yao's little courtyard last night. She got up early this morning, but everyone had disappeared.
I only found out we came here after asking the director!
It's obvious he was just angry and wanted to vent his frustration.
"Isn't she just making a scene? If anything happens, I'm here for you. Why should she be the one to take the lead?"
Xu Chi smiled knowingly.
His good friend has a good older brother who is good at taking care of everything for her.
But the problem is that we can't bear to let her handle all the big and small things on her own.
Even though Tu Xiaomao was already capable of handling things on his own.
Tu Chaoxi was about to walk over when she spoke.
Xu Chi suddenly reached out and stopped him.
Tu Chaoxi: ?
The young man's eyes were calm. He picked up a bamboo skewer with his other hand and pointed it to the opposite side without any change in expression: "Go, aim over there and shoot."
director:?
This was naturally said to the director.
For some reason, the director suddenly felt an irresistible sense of obedience when faced with such a young man.
He waved his hand instinctively, and the cameraman immediately raised his lens.
...
At the school gate, Tu Yao was about to go in with Da Pang when they were stopped by several teachers.
The fat boy's homeroom teacher's surname was Hong, and he was a middle-aged man in his forties.
Upon seeing Da Pang, her expression changed slightly, and she asked Tu Yao, "Are you Da Pang's parent? Didn't we say that Da Pang didn't need to come this month, and he didn't need to attend the parent-teacher conference either!"
Big Fatty lowered his head in frustration.
Tu Yao held him tightly, looking puzzled: "Why?"
He couldn't help but sigh: "Because Big Fatty did something wrong!"
They're the child of a very wealthy family, and they've donated so much to the school. Would they really be greedy for a bite of your worthless rice cake?
This kid is something else; he clearly stole the food, but he insists on blaming the other person.
If we offend that Mrs. Wei, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The one-month suspension of classes was also to prevent him from causing any more trouble and affecting the school.
As he spoke, he kept an eye on what was ahead. When he saw the elegantly dressed lady across from him, he immediately said, "Take your child and leave right now!"
Then, several leaders went to greet them.
"Mrs. Wei, welcome to our school."
Wei Tai narrowed his eyes, picked up his handbag, and walked straight to Tu Yao's side.
Teacher Hong quickly explained, "This...Mrs. Wei, we suspended this child from school, and we don't know why they came today."
Wei Tai smoothed the hair at his temples and smiled faintly: "Never mind, teacher, we can't deprive children of their right to education, so there's no need to suspend classes."
Teacher Hong immediately smiled and said, "Mrs. Wei is truly magnanimous and has a heart for education."
Wei Tai glanced down at Ding Dapang and gave a mocking smile: "Naturally, equal access to education."
"No matter how much you educate them, it's all in vain."
Tu Yao muttered in a low voice, "That's still better than cheating and not admitting it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Tai's face darkened instantly: "What did you say?"
