Chapter 29 Home Visits (2)
Mr. Lin followed Captain Wang into Xiaochi Village, and just arrived at the door of Tao's house, he happened to meet Mrs. Tao who came back with a basket.
"Captain, didn't you go to the town government for a meeting?"
When Mrs. Tao arrived at Captain Wang's house, she learned that the captain had been notified to go to the town for a meeting early in the morning, and she thought that she would go again in the afternoon, but she didn't expect to meet her at the door of her house.
"Yes, Aunt Tao, I remember that you said last night that you had something to do with me in the morning, and I came back after the meeting."
Captain Wang saw that Mrs. Tao was about to enter the door with a basket, and guessed that it was his house just now.
"By the way, Aunt Tao, this is Xiaoguang's teacher, surnamed Lin, who came to visit the house, so I brought it over."
Hearing the word teacher, Mrs. Tao's eyes lit up, and she wondered when there was such a spiritual lesbian in the village, who turned out to be a teacher at school.
"Hello Mr. Lin, come and sit in the house." Mrs. Tao took Mr. Lin's hand and took it to the house.
Captain Wang also said goodbye to Mr. Lin, and he had to go back to the village committee office to do some work.
"Aunt Tao, I won't go in, I still have some work to convey after the meeting." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand towards Teacher Lin again, "Teacher Lin, there is a chance to talk again." ”
Teacher Lin sat in the hall of the Tao family, and it was Ren Qing who sat opposite.
Zhu Xia brought out a glass of sugar water from the stove room.
"Teacher Lin, the house is a little crowded, don't mind, make you some sugar water, you can replenish your water."
When she heard that it was sugar water, Teacher Lin quickly refused, she was here to visit the family, and she was communicating with parents about the situation of their children, how could she drink sugar water.
"Eldest sister, don't break the bank, I'll leave after I say a few words."
Now the white sugar is bought with sugar stamps to the village supply and marketing cooperative, but sugar stamps are a rare thing, and it takes three or two months for an old man like Mr. Lin to eat public meals to get a pound of sugar stamps, let alone the Tao family.
"How can this work?" Mrs. Tao personally put the sugar water in front of Teacher Lin, "Teacher Xiaolin, you must be tired after walking so far on the road, drink some sugar water, take a break, and say slowly, stay at home at noon to eat." ”
"No, no." Teacher Lin hurriedly refused, the sugar water was already very expensive, and the meal was even more inconsistent with the school rules.
Seeing that Mr. Lin's attitude was very resolute, Mrs. Tao did not continue to push.
"That's right, Xiaoguang's mother, I met Xiaoguang at the entrance of the village just now, and he said that you are not at home today, why did you come back so soon."
Ren Qing looked dazed, she glanced at Zhu Xia, when did they go out, "Teacher Lin, we have been at home, we haven't gone out." ”
Teacher Lin is very sure now, Tao Zhiguang lied to her at the entrance of the village just now, "Mother Xiaoguang, I don't know what the situation is, but just now Xiaoguang at the entrance of the village took a little girl and said that you are not at home, if I hadn't met Captain Wang, I might have been ready to go home." ”
Ren Qing's face was already full of anger, she said, when she got up this morning, she saw that Tao Zhiguang was wrong, the food was not very good, and she didn't go out to play, and suddenly she went out with Tao Tao for some reason, and her feelings were to go to the village to lie to the teacher.
Teacher Lin saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly started haha, "Xiaoguang's mother, don't be angry, it may be that I heard it wrong, don't blame the child." ”
"By the way, Xiaoguang's mother, the main purpose of my home visit is to communicate with you, do you know that Xiaoguang hates girls very much?"
Hearing that Teacher Lin shifted the topic to hating girls again, Ren Qing nodded lightly.
"Xiaoguang does hate girls a little, but he shouldn't bully girls."
"Xiaoguang really didn't bully girls, but he was very reluctant to contact with girls, of course, he didn't say that it was bad, but the school is a collective after all, and in this case, when the school organizes various activities, Xiaoguang can't fit in, so I thought about discussing with your parents this time, how can I help Xiaoguang solve this knot."
Teacher Lin also said a few things that happened in school, because Tao Zhiguang deliberately avoided female classmates, several female classmates cried.
Ren Qing was very guilty, she cried, "Is Xiaoguang's rejection of girls so serious?" It's all my fault. ”
Mrs. Tao and Zhu Xia on the side only knew the seriousness of the matter when they heard the teacher, and they always said that Xiaoguang wore a skirt when he was a child as a joke.
Ren Qing told him about raising Tao Zhiguang as a girl when he was a child.
The more Teacher Lin listened, the more surprised she became, there is such a family, although she does not favor sons over daughters, but now everyone in every family does not want to have a boy, how can there be people who dress up boys as girls.
Teacher Lin didn't know if the Tao family had done something wrong or not.
After all, in order to give birth to a boy, many families now dress up the girls in the family as boys, and what are the names of Zhaodi and Pandi, so if they are replaced by the Tao family, isn't it to dress Tao Zhiguang as a girl, what's wrong with this.
"Xiaoguang's mother, things are already like this, I think now we all need to enlighten Xiaoguang, it is right to keep a distance from girls, but there can be no more various rejection actions."
After finishing speaking, Mr. Lin raised his head and drank the last sip of sugar water in the cup, and then took his leave.
Only the three women of the Tao family were left with heavy faces, "Old family, from now on, throw away all the little skirts that Xiaoguang wore before, and then it is strictly forbidden to mention Xiaoguang's childhood at home." ”
Mrs. Tao and the others still kept those little skirts, ready to be a souvenir, and they had to be thrown away.
"Mother, I think this may not work, today Tao Tao seems to have a closer relationship with Xiao Guang, or let Tao Tao and Xiao Guang have more contact, as long as Xiao Guang can accept Tao Tao, then Xiao Guang can find that most girls are actually the same as Tao Tao." Zhu Xia remembered the way Tao Tao and Xiao Guang held hands in the morning, if her intuition was correct, Tao Tao would be able to open Xiao Guang's heart knot.
Mrs. Tao nodded when she heard this, what the second daughter-in-law said was right.
Ren Qing's thoughts on the side were very confused, she blamed herself and was very helpless, she didn't expect that her whim at that time would bring such a big psychological shadow to Xiaoguang.
"Old family, don't think about it, it's your fault for this, we all want a girl, it's not your fault." As soon as Mrs. Tao saw Ren Qing lowering her head, she knew that Ren Qing was blaming herself again.
Since Ren Qing married into the Tao family, she found out that Ren Qing always thinks about things on the bad side, so she is always pretending to be herself, and Mrs. Tao doesn't know what Ren Qing suffered before she got married, so she can only try to enlighten her.
