Chapter 17: Tentative Confrontation

Originally, Zheng Pei thought that if he missed a day's class, he would definitely be named by the teacher. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But when I went back to the dormitory and asked, I found out that these two days were weekends, and there were no classes at all. His dormitory classmates also secretly joked with him about whether he was dizzy because he was making money, Zheng Pei laughed and breathed a sigh of relief. It's Sunday, and the students in the city are going home for the holidays, and they don't have to go to the library, and he still has a long time to belong to himself before the night shift. Everyone in the dorm room was out playing, and the bed was soft and comfortable, and he felt like he hadn't enjoyed it in a long time.

"Is Zheng Pei in this dormitory?" A strange man pushed the door in and asked.

"Well, I am." Zheng Pei hurriedly sat up from the bed.

"Oh, you are, that's great." The man took a chair from the side, sat down opposite Zheng Pei's bed, and said with a smile: "I am Teacher Zhang from the school union, and I am here to learn about the work-study situation with you." ”

"Oh, no problem, wait a minute, I'll pour you a glass of water." Zheng Pei stood up to see which cup was clean.

"No need, I'll just ask a few questions, and I won't bother you so much." Teacher Zhang smiled and asked Zheng Pei to do a good job, "There are several other students, and I am also in a hurry." ”

"Well," Zheng Pei nodded to show cooperation, "If you have any questions, just ask." ”

Teacher Zhang asked some about Zheng Pei's situation at school, including life, study and work-study, and Zheng Pei answered truthfully. Finally, he looked into Zheng Pei's eyes and asked, "I heard that you still have a job outside the school, and you often don't come home at night?" Is this the case? ”

Zheng Pei immediately became nervous, he didn't dare to look into Teacher Zhang's eyes, because he knew that if he didn't return at night, he would be severely punished.

"It's okay, this is what I asked you privately, as a school teacher, I'm just worried about your safety outside the school, if you have any difficulties, just say it, I can understand you." Teacher Zhang said gently.

Zheng Pei hesitated for a moment, then told him about his difficulties and the situation of working outside the school, and begged him not to punish him, if he really couldn't do it, he could resign from the job.

After listening to this, Teacher Zhang frowned, "It's not easy for you to be a child, you have to go out to work at a young age, I know this matter in my heart, you don't have too much pressure." As for your work, I will consider it first, if there is no other pressure on the school, your situation will be given special care according to special cases, and you will not be dealt with, but you must ensure your safety outside the school, and you must not collude with idle people in society to do illegal things, otherwise once something happens, it will be expelled. ”

Zheng Pei hurriedly said: "I won't do anything illegal, as long as I can earn a salary." Teacher Zhang, you must help me! ”

Teacher Zhang nodded and said to Zheng Pei kindly, "I know this." But I see that your face is not good, do you have any other pressure besides bad rest? ”

Zheng Pei was shocked, he looked into Teacher Zhang's eyes, and in just a second, his brain had already completed his thinking.

Teacher Zhang said, "If you have anything to tell me, the school and the teachers are worthy of your trust. We will do our best to help you solve your difficulties. Seeing that Zheng Pei's face was embarrassed, Teacher Zhang immediately added: "Don't feel pressure in your heart, there are many things in society that you can't deal with." Now that you are studying far away from home, your parents are not around, and the teachers are your relatives. If you have something," Teacher Zhang helped his glasses, "even if it is private and incomprehensible, the teacher can help you." ”

Zheng Pei frowned and said slowly: "I'm just worried about my mother, she is not in good health, and her chest often hurts badly, I'm just worried that she won't be able to live well at home alone." ”

Teacher Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I know this situation, don't worry too much, study hard, and don't live up to your mother's cultivation of you." ”

After Teacher Zhang left, Zheng Pei kept thinking in his heart that although he was worried that he would be punished by the school because he didn't return home at night because of work, he was even more worried that his life would always be entangled in this unspeakable secret.

As soon as Teacher Zhang walked out of the school gate, there was a sound of "Di Di Di Di" from his waist. He unbuttoned his coat, took out a pager from the back of his waist and looked at it, then walked into a small store, picked up the receiver of the telephone, and skillfully dialed a number.

"Hey, old money, I've finished the investigation here, and I haven't found any particularly valuable information yet, think about who else she can trust...... Well, yes, that's what I meant...... Well, don't startle the snake yet, don't say anything, because you know it...... Well, yes, don't underestimate your opponent too much, we're in the open right now, and it's not good to move. In addition," Teacher Zhang's brows furrowed, "If you can't do it, you can find a way to find a master, I don't think this mother-in-law's methods are beyond our control...... Well, okay, I have news for you...... Well, we'll meet when the time comes. ”

Hanging up the phone, he threw the boss a dime, turned and walked out of the store, disappearing like a shadow into the crowd of people coming and going.

Zheng Pei slowly opened his eyes from his deep sleep, and this sleep was so muddy that he didn't have any dreams, as if he had lost consciousness. When I woke up, it was already dusk. Zheng Pei sat up, the dormitory was empty and he was alone, as if he and others were not living in the same world, and an inexplicable sense of emptiness appeared in his heart, making him feel cold. Zheng Pei got up silently and got dressed and made the bed, until he finished washing, no one came back, as if he was the only one left in this world, and it might not matter to Zheng Pei, because his best friend may be lonely.

The students whose families are in the city have already gone home, and most of the students who live on campus usually choose to improve their lives outside the school at this time, so even when it is dinner time, there are not many people in the cafeteria. Zheng Pei held the most cost-effective meal after his careful calculation and comparison, and sat in the corner alone, eating quietly. After the meal, Zheng Pei carried his schoolbag diagonally and wandered around aimlessly. He sat down on a secluded bench, but when he saw a couple all around him, he hurriedly got up and walked away, feeling as if he was surrounded by embarrassment. No way, Zheng Pei laughed at himself, a poor boy like him, whose daughter would take a fancy to him? But he doesn't seem to be completely devoid of contact with girls, Zheng Pei imagines his encounter with Yang Ni as he walks, and if she is his girlfriend, they can also walk side by side on campus, chatting about each other and their families. Zheng Pei suddenly felt stupid, feeling like a fool in the village who shouted all day long that he wanted to marry his daughter-in-law. He took a deep breath and felt that he should put aside these stupid thoughts for a moment and solve the more pressing problem as soon as possible. But when he looked up, he suddenly realized that he had unknowingly walked to the school hospital.

Zheng Pei touched the back of his neck, smiled and left.

If you don't believe in the result, you will have obsession; If you believe in the results, you can often be relieved.
