Chapter 62: Eternal Scars (3)
In the evening, my mother-in-law and brother-in-law went home, and my brother-in-law tried to take Lu Tao away before leaving, but Lu Tao refused to go back, so he stayed in the hospital with me. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Yangyang lives in a multi-person ward, our family of three occupies two beds, Yangyang and I squeeze one, and Lu Tao sleeps alone.
I don't know when Lu Tao fell asleep, because I haven't looked at him all the time, just treat him as air. But when his thunderous snoring sounded, I confessed that he was still there, and that the whole ward was not sleeping.
I couldn't sleep, but it wasn't just because of Lu Tao's snoring, but because the whole ward was noisy, and the moans of the patients and the footsteps of the nurses were as deafening as if they were passing through a megaphone. As soon as I closed my eyes, I felt that there were no doors or walls around the ward, and that it was completely connected to the outside world, except for the groans of patients and the footsteps of nurses, the clashing of cold-sounding medical equipment, and the horns of night cars on the street, in short, all the sounds from the outside world flooded me like a flood, making me feel like I could be swallowed up by this noisy world at any moment. It doesn't matter if you devour it, but don't let the shadows of Lu Tao and Liu Jia linger in front of my eyes and make people upset!
At half past five in the morning, I got up and went to the corridor to line up with the families of many patients to go to the toilet, then get hot water and buy food. The doctor didn't let Yang Yang eat, saying that he would do a series of routine physical examinations such as liver function tests in the morning. I didn't ask Lu Tao if he ate or not, he would eat if he wanted to, and if he didn't eat, he didn't have much to do with me. I ate alone, and I ate a lot, two steamed buns and two eggs, and even Yangyang's portion, as if I was ruthless. As for Lu Tao's morning asking "When did the three of us move to the hospital", I didn't answer, I told him to ask your mother. But Yang Yang talked to him, saying that his eye was broken by the teacher. Yang Yang probably thought it was necessary to tell his father, the person who could protect him in the world. Only when he saw Lu Tao Yangyang did he dare to tell the truth, probably he thought that his mother's strength was inferior to his teacher.
"What? was the teacher falling?" I asked Yangyang in surprise.
"Yes, the teacher mistakenly thought I was talking in class, came up and grabbed me, and threw me on the corner of the stool, but I really didn't speak at the time, I was peeking at an anime book. Yang Yang said aggrievedly, tears still rolling in his eyes.
"Look for them!" Lu Tao listened to his son's story, stood up and left, I didn't stop him, no, I didn't stop him at all. I don't want to answer him for at least a month, and if I want to answer him that day, it must be to talk to him about divorce. Now I can't take care of it too much, I have to take care of Yangyang first.
Of course, I want to keep a complete home for Yangyang, but my ability is limited, and sometimes this home can't be kept, so I have to let go. But I promise to stay with Yang Yang until that day he doesn't need me anymore. I know that I will always need Yang Yang, and I will feel lonely without him.
After Lu Tao left, my mother-in-law came and asked me where Lu Tao went, and I said that I might go to school, and my mother-in-law blamed me for not letting Lu Tao go to school to make trouble, and I said who can control your son? After Yangyang was injured, my temper rose, and sometimes I talked hard to my mother-in-law.
In the morning, when I took Yangyang to finish a series of routine inspections, Lu Tao led Yangyang's homeroom teacher, Mr. Bai, and the principal to the hospital.
"The medical expenses are all borne by the school, and Teacher Bai is responsible for making up two hours of lessons for Lu Chenyang every day, and we will deal with Teacher Bai afterwards!"
"The medical expenses don't have to be fully borne by the school, I have accident insurance for Yangyang, and the insurance company will cover more than half of it. In addition, we don't want to hold Teacher Bai responsible, I just want to make it clear that it wasn't Yang Yang who was talking in the back row of the classroom that day, and Teacher Bai misunderstood Yang Yang. I added.
"Even if a student speaks in class, the teacher can't do anything to the student, corporal punishment of the student is always wrong!" The principal made clear Teacher Bai's mistake, and Teacher Bai on the side lowered his head, not knowing whether to regret or hate.
In the next few days, not to mention Yangyang's aunts and uncles, even some good neighbors and friends also came to visit Yangyang in the hospital, and Yangyang received a lot of nutritional products. Among them, Wu Daren also came with Wu Xuewen, on the same day, Wu Xuewen, who was in the same class as Yangyang, as an eyewitness, restored the real scene at the time of the incident: the teacher was lecturing on the podium, and there were many students in the classroom who were talking in a low voice, the teacher was angry, and directly Chaoyang Yang came over and grabbed Yang Yang, but the teacher used too much force and threw Yang Yang to the corner of the stool, and Yang Yang's head immediately flowed a lot of blood, and then Teacher Bai quickly took Yang Yang to the hospital. And Wu Xuewen also emphasized that Yangyang didn't speak at all, it was the student next to him who spoke, and he didn't know why the teacher was pulling Yangyang!
As for why Teacher Bai blames Yang Yang, I know very well, isn't it because I haven't given her any benefits? If I stuff a shopping card in her hand on Teacher's Day, this will not be the case, maybe Yang Yang will become the group leader. I think that's the reason, because we haven't offended Teacher Bai anywhere else, and Yang Yang is not the kind of student who is too naughty to manage. Otherwise, where does Teacher Bai's cold eye for Yangyang start?
Fifteen days later, Yangyang's eyesight recovered to 1.0, and he was discharged with a permanent scar on his brow bone. The doctor said that this scar can only be eliminated through plastic surgery, and of course I will not ask Yang Yang to have plastic surgery because of this not long scar, but this scar has become a mark that will remind him of his teacher Bai when he looks in the mirror every day, and this is definitely not a good thing. Everyone knows that Yang Yang is not just hurt by a small piece of skin at the brow bone!
A friend advised me to sue Ms. Bai in court and claim compensation from her, because Yangyang's eyesight and appearance were permanently damaged. I didn't take my friend's advice, I thought that as long as Mr. Bai realized his mistake and changed the way he disciplined the students in the future. I understand that having more than 60 children in a class can be difficult to manage, and it will inevitably make the teacher angry. What's more, China has always had a tradition of respecting teachers and valuing education, the ancients said that one day is a teacher and a father is life, and respecting and tolerating teachers seems to be what students and parents should do. In the same way as to earn wages, the profession of teacher is far more important than that of a textile worker, and is even regarded as a sacred profession, and it seems to me that the two professions are only different in the division of labor. An excellent teacher is as worthy of praise and respect as an excellent textile worker, not to mention that now I see that many teachers who are consumed by interests are far less simple than a textile worker.
I have always been in a bad mood when I took Yangyang home from the hospital, not because of the incident when Lu Tao ran to Liu Jia's house drunk, but because I was worried that Yangyang would be resistant to Teacher Bai, and I was also worried that the young Teacher Bai would hold a grudge against us because Lu Tao stabbed the principal about this matter. Because in the six months that I have been in contact with Teacher Bai, I can't say that Teacher Bai's quality is not high, but she definitely does not belong to Teacher Sullivan's type.
This worry was half confirmed the day after Yang Yang was discharged from the hospital, because Yang Yang refused to go back to school,!
I went to the principal and asked the principal to change the class for Yangyang, but the principal refused, the principal's reason was that Teacher Bai had admitted his mistake, and the school also gave Teacher Bai a warning that she could not knock down a young teacher with a shot, and wanted to give her a chance to express herself again. He also said that if Yangyang did not accept Teacher Bai's request to change classes, it might cause a chain reaction in the school, and other students who were dissatisfied with the teacher would also propose to change classes, in which case the school would be chaotic. The principal advises us and teachers to be tolerant of each other, not to be hostile, teachers and students have absolutely no enmity, even if we accidentally hurt students, the original intention is good, and it is also to educate students well, but the method is not very appropriate. The principal finally said that he believed that the young teacher Bai would become an excellent teacher in the future, so we could rest assured. I agree with the principle of mutual tolerance and not hostility, and I have always done so, but to say that teachers physically punish students out of the original intention of educating students, I don't fully agree, I think that some teachers corporal punishment of students is just to vent their own bad emotions and use students as a punching bag. Again, not all teachers are Sullivan!
But in general, what the principal said is reasonable, and he must give Teacher Bai a chance, tolerate her, and believe her. In fact, I have forgiven Teacher Bai a long time ago, or I don't blame her at all. When I was a child, it was not uncommon for teachers to beat students, and I remember one of my elementary school teachers beating two boys in my class with a smooth, hard shrub whip until they broke the whip. The students who were beaten had no complaints but fear, including their parents. In the past, almost all Chinese people thought that it was normal for teachers to physically punish students, and didn't the ancients still say such a sentence? -- Strict teachers produce high apprentices! Some parents are even grateful to teachers for corporal punishment of their children, and they think that corporal punishment is a teacher's concern for their children and is doing their duty. As for whether this practice violates the law and discipline, it has only been a topic of discussion in recent years. The topic of corporal punishment of students has also been discussed, as a result of the penetration of a strong foreign concept of the rule of law. People wonder that in the United States, not to mention teachers physically punishing students, even parents who physically punish their own children can be imprisoned. The concept of respect for the human personality and the inviolability of the human body began to arise in people's minds. I understand and agree with all of these truths, and the reason why I don't emphasize them so much is because I know that I live in China, not the United States. My approach must be adapted to the real world, that is, I must be tolerant of the phenomenon of corporal punishment of students by teachers. Because they are "engineers of the human soul," I read this phrase in my textbook when I was in elementary school.
The principal did not agree to the change of class, and Yangyang still did not go to school. I also ran a few other primary schools, and I wanted to change schools for Yangyang, but the primary schools outside the area where my family lived had to pay a sponsorship fee, 1,000 a year. Yangyang is only in the first grade now, and he gets 5,500 yuan to go to the sixth grade, which is really unaffordable for Lu Tao and me, who only have a monthly salary of a little more than 500. Every month, in addition to paying off the bank loan, the two of us only have living expenses.
Of course, Yangyang didn't buy a learning machine to study, just to play the Super Mario game that swept the world. That is to say, Yang Yang would rather be blinded by the teacher in order to play games! You can imagine how attractive this kind of electronic learning machine, no, just called a game machine, is so big that he can ignore the evil teacher in his mind.
The learning machine was bought back quickly, not only Yang Yang likes to play, but Lu Tao is even more addicted to it, in order to run back to play Super Mario and Tetris, he rarely goes out to drink with others at night. Of course, I control the time and frequency of Yangyang's game consoles, which is also an important part of the back-to-school agreement between me and him.
Yangyang obeyed the treaty and went to school. But my heart still hangs in the air, always worrying about something. (To be continued.) )
