Chapter 126: Striking Similarity
The office was very quiet, but Mr. Ma's laughter was quite hearty, Zhang Yi didn't know what was going on, and stood next to him with a black line on his face waiting for Mr. Ma's laughter to end.
After a long time, Teacher Ma pressed his legs and straightened his waist with difficulty, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and pointed to the chair on the side to let him sit down and talk.
Zhang Yi sat blankly in his chair, anxious and ready to be reprimanded.
"That's the case, wasn't it a seventy-year-old man who led Xiaoqing to report before, I always thought that the old man was Xiaoqing's guardian, that is, her brother-in-law." After Mr. Ma finished speaking, he immediately covered his mouth and laughed, but he suddenly realized that it was undignified to be a teacher, so he couldn't help shaking his body and forcibly calmed down.
Zhang Yi asked cautiously: "Teacher Ma, I heard that Xiaoqing had a fight with someone at school, if there is anything wrong with her, I, as a guardian, will definitely educate her and bear a certain amount of medical expenses, I hope the teacher will forgive Xiaoqing once." ”
Teacher Ma waved his hand and coughed and said, "Now that everything has been figured out, there is nothing to do, and there are no injuries, children, because of the disputes caused by misunderstandings, just make it clear." ”
Zhang Yi was confused, and was hurriedly called by Mr. Ma, thinking that he would hear a thunderous scolding, but in the end, he only listened to Mr. Ma's laughter and ended before he could figure out the ins and outs of the matter.
But after all, it was Li Xiaoqing who started beating people, and this is no longer held responsible, which is also what people like Zhang Yi are happy to see, so Zhang Yi didn't say anything more, and quietly waited for the teacher's next step.
"It's five o'clock now, and we have a parent-teacher conference at six o'clock, so I suggest that Xiaoqing's parents don't go back, so it may not be too late to attend the parent-teacher meeting on time, I think you should just stroll around the school playground or sit in the classroom and wait for the parent-teacher conference."
"Okay, okay, then Teacher Zhang, I won't disturb your work, I'll just walk around the playground and prepare for a parent-teacher conference" After that, he turned around and slipped out like a thief, and behind him, he heard Teacher Ma calling Li Xiaoqing and Tan Qin to go in.
Walking out of the office door, Zhang Yi and Li Xiaoqing came to meet each other, Li Xiaoqing immediately lowered her head and quickly entered the office to avoid Zhang Yi's sight, and the girl named Tan Qin also glanced at Zhang Yi suspiciously and followed into the office.
The environment of this private school is really very good, surrounded by greenery, a huge brown circular rubber track surrounds two football fields, each of which is covered with green grass and verdant colors.
On the football field today since no one was playing on it on Saturday, only two gardeners were repairing the lawn with a lawn mower on their backs.
Lying on the soft lawn, watching the afterglow of the sunset in the sky, Zhang Yi tried to recall the school he once attended, but he didn't have any impression in his mind, but he was able to make up all kinds of schools in his brain, and even the ancient private school master walked back and forth with a ruler and shook his head to teach and teach.
I may never remember what my school was like.
"Hey! Hello! ”
A young magnetic voice sounded in his ears, Zhang Yi opened his eyes and saw a young man about twenty-five or sixteen years old standing beside him and looking down on him condescendingly.
Seeing that the young man is not dressed like a gardener, but has a bit of the demeanor of a school teacher, can it be that this lawn cannot be trampled on today's maintenance, thinking of this, Zhang Yi jumped up and scratched his head and apologized with a red face: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that this lawn can't come up, I'll go down immediately." ”
The young man immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of Zhang Yide's clothes, and said softly and politely: "Hello, this gentleman, I think you misunderstood, I didn't blame you, I have something else to look for you." ”
Zhang Yi immediately stopped his feet, turned around and looked at the young man and asked, "We know each other?" ”
The young man was a little shy, he blushed and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you, I know it's a bit abrupt and impolite, but I can't help it." ”
When the young man said this, Zhang Yi was even more confused, so he had to say: "It's okay, we are all young people, it doesn't matter if you have anything to say." ”
The young man was very happy to hear this, and he pointed to a gazebo on the edge of the football field, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go to the gazebo and sit down and talk." ”
Zhang Yi nodded, and walked to the gazebo with apprehension.
"I came to this school last year after graduating from graduate school, and when I saw you when I passed by the playground just now, I found that you are really very special like a person."
"Oh, like whom?"
"Like my father."
Zhang Yi couldn't help but gasp after hearing this, thinking to himself that this young man was almost a few years old from himself, and now that he said that I was like his father, was I really so old.
The young man seemed to see Zhang Yi's thoughts, he awkwardly took out his mobile phone from his jacket pocket, opened the photo album, flipped to a photo, handed it to Zhang Yi and said, "I mean you are very similar to my father when he was young." ”
Zhang Yi took the phone and couldn't help but be surprised, the people in the photo were exactly the same as himself, if it weren't for the fact that the people inside were wearing 69-style military uniforms with a sense of history and age, Zhang Yi almost thought it was himself.
"Isn't it very similar to you?" The young man took the phone, looked at the photos in the phone, and then looked at Zhang Yi's face.
Zhang Yi nodded and replied: "Well, it was indeed very similar when you were young, your father should be gone, right, so you miss your father very much?" ”
The young man stood up and looked at the tall buildings in the distance and muttered, "Yes, he has gone to heaven, and with his mother, he will never come back, and I believe that he will never have pain in that world." ”
Zhang Yi patted the young man's shoulder and comforted: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are the normal reincarnation of this world, no one can escape, no one can escape, it's just a succession." ”
The young man nodded, "Yes, in my memory, my father once said this, and he also likes to lie on the lawn and look at the sky with hesitant eyes like you, but we feel guilty all our lives as children." ”
"This teacher actually doesn't need to be sad, he serves the old man well when he is alive, accompanies the old man, and after he dies, he does the duty of a child, sends him to the earth for peace, and cleans and pays tribute in front of his grave during the New Year's holidays."
As soon as he finished speaking, the young teacher's body shook violently, and then a bean-sized eye slipped down the corner of his eye.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Yi was depressed to the extreme, after coming to this school, Zhang Yi felt that he was going crazy, he met a female teacher who laughed until his whole body trembled, and he met a male teacher who burst into tears at every turn, is he too sentimental or was he born with a face that attracts other people's jokes?
But seeing the sad appearance of this teacher, Zhang Yi couldn't be too straightforward, he gently patted the young teacher's shoulder and whispered: "This teacher, I'm sorry, I'm stupid, please forgive me if I say something wrong." ”
It took a long time for the young man to finally stop crying, he wiped his red eyes and bowed to Zhang Yi and said: "I'm sorry, let you see the joke, you are not wrong, the old man should be well waited for when he is alive, and he should be buried when he goes, I have already sat in front of me, but I have not done it in the back of the earth, so that his body is displaced." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yi's eyes opened, and he asked cautiously, "What happened to your father's body?" ”
