Chapter 516 One university underachiever, one elementary school underachiever
“I made the arrangements five minutes ago. The doctor is on his way to the school. The doctor who will examine the injury is a very famous surgeon in the capital city. His file can be found in regular hospitals. Of course, if you are not comfortable with the doctor I invited, you can also arrange for a doctor you know to examine your son’s injury yourself.”
“I believe that Ai Xiu and Wan Wan did not hit anyone. My daughter has also apologized to your son for their behavior. Now, the most important thing is for you to help your son change his clothes and pants. Your son is my daughter’s classmate, so he is about six or seven years old. Children of this age already have a sense of shame. You don’t want him to stand here wearing wet pants and then have to face his classmates and strangers later.”
"Do you think what I said is right?" Huo Zhijing presented his solution in an orderly manner, covering all aspects and providing logical and evidence-based arguments, which convinced everyone and made it impossible for them to refuse.
The mother of the thin boy was speechless. When her son was mentioned, she looked down at the trembling child standing beside her. He hadn't looked up during the adults' conversation, and his ears were bright red.
It turns out that she had been preoccupied with who was at fault and wanted the children to apologize to her son, but she had overlooked her son's self-esteem.
"I'm sorry, Mommy neglected your feelings. Now, let's go change your clothes and pants, okay?"
The woman knelt down in front of her son, her voice filled with guilt. Before the boy could speak, she took his hand and led him out the door.
She brought clothes with her, but in her anger, she forgot to change.
Especially after seeing Ning Yao's unreasonable attitude, the anger in her heart burned even more fiercely. She only wanted to get justice for her son, but she obviously forgot the most important thing.
The woman left the office with her son, and the homeroom teacher breathed a sigh of relief.
This matter was not difficult to handle, but both sets of parents were a bit overreacting, each feeling that their own child had been wronged.
"Please sit down for a while. There's tea on the table, which I just brewed. Be careful, it's hot." The homeroom teacher invited Ning Yao and Huo Zhijing to sit down and handed Wen Baoying a tissue.
She actually liked Wen Baoying very much. Not only was she cute and lovable, but she was also generous and capable, with a broader perspective than most children. She retained the innocence that children should have, but she didn't seem silly. She was a kind, smart and clever child.
"The teacher believes there were some unfair factors in this class officer election. However, next time something like this happens, you should come directly to the teacher to discuss it. Crying is not good. It will make the teacher feel sorry for you, and your mother will feel sorry for you too, do you understand?"
When Wen Baoying saw her homeroom teacher laughing and coaxing her, she immediately nodded her head emphatically.
She wanted to explain the situation to the teacher, but she was used to being the class monitor and felt that she shouldn't go to the teacher if she could handle things herself.
Because class officers are elected to help alleviate the teacher's burden.
It was precisely because of this that Wen Baoying went to talk to the skinny boy about it, but the boy didn't think he was wrong at all. He even mocked her, saying that she didn't do well on her exam last week and that she dared to run for class monitor with such poor grades. He also said some insulting things about her and her mother, which made Wen Baoying very unhappy.
Wen Baoying cried partly because of Ning Yao, and partly because of her own grades, feeling ashamed of her position as class monitor.
Another small reason was that she felt that if someone like the skinny boy was elected class monitor, the other students would definitely be led astray by him, and the class atmosphere would be in trouble. She would have no position and could only worry helplessly on the sidelines.
Wen Baoying didn't say any of these things. She was only a six-year-old child. If she had too many things weighing on her mind, she would easily break down.
Once she starts crying, it never stops. Mommy said she had to go out today, and Baoying didn't want Mommy to worry, so she could only call her brother.
She never imagined things would turn out this way; she had only wanted to confide in her brother about her grievances.
And then there's Wanwan. Wanwan only stood up for her because she had been wronged.
The more Wen Baoying thought about it, the more she felt she was wrong. The tears she had just wiped away suddenly welled up in her eyes again, making them watery.
"Why are you crying again, my sweet baby?"
"Mommy will stand up for you and make sure the class officer election is held again. It won't just be swept under the rug like this. I promise you."
Ning Yao watched her daughter cry incessantly, and her heart ached as if it were being pricked by needles.
But she didn't realize that she hadn't comforted Wen Baoying at all, and Wen Baoying was still not coaxed, and even cried harder.
Ning Yao's attention was focused on Wen Baoying, which freed Wen Aixiu, who was then placed on the sofa by Ning Yao.
Ning Yao ordered him not to move, so Wen Aixiu, with a stern face, crossed his arms and sat like a pufferfish.
Seeing Ning Yao trying to comfort Wen Baoying but not knowing why Wen Baoying was crying, Wen Aixiu sighed like an old man.
“My sister didn’t do well on her exam last week, so people laughed at her for being a bottom-of-the-class student. That brat even said that he has his mom personally tutoring him with his homework, which is why he gets good grades. He said that my sister doesn’t do well because her mom can’t do those problems either, and that Mom is also a bad student. A bad student in college gave birth to a bad student in elementary school. Each generation is worse than the last. These are the main reasons why my sister cried.”
“I came to settle scores with that brat because he said those things that not only insulted Mommy but also hurt my sister. I was annoyed by his rudeness, so I came to beat him up.”
"Who would have thought that before the beating even started, he would fall down first? He was quite enthusiastic when he was bullying the two girls because he was a boy, but as soon as I arrived, he became a coward."
"He's useless. He only knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong. When he saw me walking over with my fists clenched, he actually fell to the ground and even wet his pants."
"You dare to mock my sister with that kind of appearance? Bullying my sister's best friend? Really... haha..."
Wen Aixiu's cold laughter was exceptionally clear, and his handsome appearance meant that even when he uttered some sarcastic remarks, he wouldn't be disliked.
It turns out she was crying because of her bad grades.
Ning Yao finally felt a little relieved after finding out why her daughter was crying.
She patted Wen Baoying's back to soothe the child, speaking gently in her voice.
"Mommy will spend more time helping you with your homework these days, and correcting your mistakes, okay? I'll make sure Bao Ying's grades improve by leaps and bounds, and then we'll see who dares to look down on Bao Ying and call her a bottom-of-the-class student."
"Really? Mommy, will you really help me with my homework?" Wen Baoying stopped crying and looked at Ning Yao with her swollen little eyes, looking pitiful, her voice still trembling.
"A promise is a promise, Mommy will pinky swear with you, okay?" Ning Yao knew, of course, that both children had top-notch childcare providers and various renowned educators at home, so they didn't need her at all.
However, it's still better for parents to do the parent-child interaction, such as helping their children with homework.
Children will naturally be more inclined to rely on their parents than on a stranger or a blood relative.
“It’s a deal then. If Mommy doesn’t keep her word, she’s a big liar, and big liars grow noses.” Wen Baoying stopped crying, and a cute, bright smile appeared on her fair face.
"I also need Mommy's help. Mommy, you can't just focus on my sister and ignore me. My Chinese is also very bad, and I need your personal help." Wen Aixiu quickly stood up, afraid that Ning Yao would forget about him.
He thought, Mommy can't just favor my sister; I, as her son, also need Mommy.
"I will tutor both of you in your studies. I mean what I say." Ning Yao was determined to do this.
Especially seeing Wen Baoying's tearful and aggrieved look today, her heart broke.
