Chapter Eighty-Four: Poor Couples Grieve
When I went to bed at night, I had a nightmare.
In the dream, I was with Zheng Xinguang, but we both became beggars.
Poor couples mourn everything, and every day, they quarrel endlessly.
The hue of this dream, at first with a warm orange light, slowly turns to darkness as we quarrel.
Finally, in the frightening dark atmosphere, Zheng Xinguang and I pointed our noses and scolded each other, spitting out the most vicious words to each other.
When I woke up from the nightmare, I found that my pillow was mostly wet.
The intense content of the dream still seemed to be hovering in my mind, and after I washed up, I sat down at my desk and looked out the window in a daze.
There were all kinds of weird whispers in my head, and I looked out the window, tears slowly flowing from my eyes.
It wasn't until my mom knocked on the door urging me to come out for breakfast that I came to my senses.
Wiping the dried tears on my face with a wet tissue, I walked out of the room and ate in a sullen voice.
The light that burned in his heart was now only flickering with sporadic flames.
After eating, my mother wiped her mouth and said slowly, "Juanzi, I'll send you back to school today." ”
When I heard this, I was stunned, and then I realized that today was the agreed day to go back to school.
There wasn't much joy in my heart for a while, so I nodded and answered in a muffled voice.
On the way to school, my mother repeatedly told me: "Juanzi, remember, you should keep your distance from Zheng Xinguang when you go to school, so as to save others from gossiping......"
When I heard this, my mood was a little gloomy, and I answered absentmindedly.
By the time we got to school, it was recess time.
The students had just finished running and exercising, and they were moving freely, and the office was full of people.
My mom dragged me to the math teacher, but there were students asking questions.
My mom and I looked at each other, and there was some warning in my mom's eyes, so I had to stand quietly with my mom and wait awkwardly.
At this point, I was already feeling a little uncomfortable.
Intentionally or unconsciously, I felt other people's eyes glancing at me.
Since the last time, I've felt uncomfortable with the gaze that others have placed on me.
What's more, now standing side by side with my mother, I can't relax even more, and I keep my head down and dare not look at others.
Twenty minutes later, the students who asked the math teacher questions left.
The math teacher turned the chair, looked at my mother, got up and stretched out her hand, and said, "It's Li Juan's parents, I came in a hurry last time, and I forgot to introduce myself to you, I am Li Juan's new homeroom teacher Zhang Xueqin." ”
When my mother heard this, she just stretched out her hand to shake hands with Zhang Xueqin, but at this time Zhang Xueqin's hand had already retracted.
When I saw this, I felt uncomfortable.
Then Zhang Xueqin began to ask me about my suspension: "I don't know how Li Juan is reflecting at home?"
My mom nodded and said, "I've been educated." ”
Zhang Xueqin continued to ask, "What about the review book?"
My mother said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang. I wanted my child to go to class as soon as possible, so I hurriedly brought her over. No, let her write it now. ”
"It's not impossible. When the math teacher heard my mom's words, she frowned and reluctantly relented.
Then she sighed and said to my mother in an official tone: "Please forgive me for all this for the sake of the child." ”
"Yes, I know, I know Mr. Zhang's good intentions. My mother hurriedly responded.
I secretly tightened my hands and gritted my teeth to suppress the anger that arose from Zhang Xueqin's disgusting remarks.
Then my mother left, and then Zhang Xueqin seemed to notice me, her eyes drifted to me, and she said: "Li Juan, you go to the outside of the office and write a 2,000-word check out, and read it to the students during the fifth class meeting." After listening to it, I put the review book behind the wall of the classroom. ”
Zhang Xueqin made this request, as if she was going to humiliate me mercilessly, telling me that this matter would never end.
But I no longer have the right to resist, so I can only bow my head and agree, as she said.
I went out with a pen and paper and felt Zhang Xueqin's gaze glued to me all the time.
His face hurt hotly from being humiliated.
But I had no choice but to slump the paper on the guardrail outside the office and start writing on the spot to check it.
I used to be such a strong person, and when everyone turned strange eyes on me, it felt like a few slaps in the face.
I gritted my teeth and sped up to write, not thinking about what would happen for a while.
Because I'm afraid that once I think about the ridicule and cold eyes of everyone in the back, I will be sad and unable to continue writing.
When it came to the fifth class meeting, Chen Yueru presided over the previous class meeting, and heard from the head teacher that I was going to read and check, and suddenly burst into a vicious smile.
She pursed her lips, her eyes shining at me, and she deliberately raised her tone, and said softly as if she were torturing me, "Below...... I asked Li Juan to read her review book for us!"
I got up expressionlessly, facing the gloating or sympathetic looks of my classmates, as if I had been stabbed with a knife, and I was already numb.
I stood on the podium and read the review: "Hello teachers and students, I am very sorry for what I have done......
Thinking mindfully, I glanced inadvertently and saw out the window, Zheng Xinguang and Lin Keer walked by in an instant.
"I have made up my mind to ......" The words in my mouth stopped abruptly for a moment, and I made a move, and I met Zheng Xinguang's gaze unexpectedly.
Zheng Xinguang retracted his gaze at this time, turned his head and said something to Lin Ke'er with a smile.
My face froze for a moment, and I looked at them in disbelief what I was seeing.
Then the math teacher said, "What are you seeing, how much time have you wasted in our class!"
I realized where I was now, and I withdrew my gaze, glanced at the math teacher's face, and continued to read the review.
But the more I read, the more I felt like I was holding my breath, so depressed that I had a little trouble struggling to speak.
After stumbling through the review book, Zhang Xueqin asked me to go back to my seat and sit down.
But this matter is not over, and then Zhang Xueqin used me as a negative teaching material to educate her classmates.
"Have you heard Li Juan's review? Don't you learn from her......
I stared blankly at my desktop, and the music heard Chen Yueru's gloating laughter next to me.
On this day at school, I was tormented.
The strange look in the eyes and the discussion that inadvertently came into my ears almost overwhelmed me.
They said that I didn't know what to check, that my mind was not on studying, and all kinds of gossip were scattered.
But as soon as I calmed down, my mind was full of Zheng Xinguang and Lin Keer who I just saw.
Zheng Xinguang knew about the note, why did he still walk with Lin Keer?
