Chapter 68: Hello Mr. Lin
Lin Kaikai said goodbye to Cen and left the bakery, his mood was still very low.
The way forward, Cen Wen and Gao Jie have already thought about it for him, and he also knows that it may be the only right path for him, but how difficult is it to really take this step?
Lin Kaikai unlocked the twenty-eight bars locked on the side of the road and silently pushed it to walk on the side of the road.
This bicycle has been with him for sixteen years, it has long been old, it will creak when pushed, it will be crooked when you ride it, and it will be difficult to pedal, but Lin Kaikai still doesn't want to change it.
Without him, he has already ridden out of his emotions, and it costs money to change a new car. As for the newer and more convenient battery car, Lin Xue wanted to change it for him, but Lao Lin refused.
First, I was reluctant, and second, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to adapt to it.
But look at the appearance of the 28 bars, it is really old, the main parts have changed a few stubbles, the parts are not well matched, and even the models have been discontinued for more than ten years, and they have long been outdated, I am afraid that it is really to the age of having to retire and eliminate, just like him.
There was a row of snack bars on the side of the road, and Lin Kai stopped and looked at the watch on his wrist.
At 5:35 a.m., I rushed back to the school cafeteria to eat, and it was estimated that there was no food.
He found a ramen shop with the smallest faΓ§ade and the most ordinary decoration in the snack bar on the side of the road, and when he entered the ramen shop, he shouted directly: "Boss, come to a bowl of Yangchun noodles, don't want beef." β
"Okay, a bowl of Yangchun noodles, eight yuan."
While waiting for the ramen and eating the ramen, Lin Kaikai gradually adjusted his emotions.
After eating the ramen, he wiped his mouth with a tissue, and by the time he rode his bike to school, he was at peace.
This afternoon, although he took leave to apply for a loan and went to Cen Wen's bakery, he still had to go to work in the evening.
The work at night is quite important, there is a parent-teacher meeting, the class he leads is in the third year of high school, for the future of the children in the class, he wants to drum up the parents' energy.
Since the first grade of primary school, parents hope that their sons will become dragons and daughters will become phoenixes, and they are looking forward to their children's success, and now they have finally reached the most critical half of the year.
Especially the few thorns in the class, we have to find a way to adjust them and work hard for the future.
While riding, Lin Kai, who was thinking about work, unconsciously forgot all about the grievances and pains of the afternoon for the time being.
He swayed the car into the campus, at this moment it was just the time for the self-study to start, on the way, there were teachers and students constantly greeting him, he also smiled and greeted each of them, Lin Kai has a strong memory, as long as it is the student he has taught, he can basically call out the name.
Unlike being aggrieved at home and being looked down upon by Gu Yan all day long, Lin Kai is very respected in school and in front of teachers and students.
He is a highly respected teacher with senior professional titles, the leader of mathematics in the city's key middle school, a lifetime full of peach and plum all over the world, won countless honors, what to upgrade outstanding teachers, model teachers, excellent class teachers and other honorary titles and trophies, filled the study at home.
The school was originally going to offer him a leadership position, but he politely declined, he knew that he was more suitable for front-line teaching, and he also preferred the sense of accomplishment obtained by teaching students, so the principal talked to him a few times, and then did not force him.
Of course, because of this, he was scolded by Gu Yan many times.
When Lin Kai walked to the door of the office, he saw many parents of students gathered in the corridor outside the class to chat.
Sharp-eyed parents saw him coming from a distance and greeted him one after another.
In an instant, all the parents of the students looked at him, and they all respected him.
The greetings of "Hello Mr. Lin" came and went.
Lin Kai responded with a smile and walked into the office.
Several parents of students who knew each other, and the topic gradually shifted to Lin Kai.
"Hey, I heard that our teacher Lin won the honor of a provincial outstanding teacher this year, and my husband said that there are only three places in Yunhai City, and he occupies one."
"Teacher Lin is really good, patient with children, good temper, my son said, there has never been a teacher like Teacher Lin to him."
"Yes, yes, he is very knowledgeable and knows how to guide children, which is a rare and good teacher."
"I tell you, the most valuable thing about Mr. Lin is his excellent quality, my child and his father have sent red envelopes to Mr. Lin on WeChat for the New Year for two consecutive years, and he also gave him things for the New Year, and he did not accept them. Once, his wife collected it on his behalf, but he had a quarrel with his wife and finally sent it back. β
"I heard that his wife is not very good, eh...... It's a shame. β
Of course, Lin Kaikai didn't know what the parents were talking about, he was in the office, carefully preparing the materials for the parent-teacher conference, combing through the parents of the students who needed to be taken care of, seeing that the time was almost up, he put the materials under his armpit, picked up his old thermos cup, walked out of the office door, and walked towards the class.
As a result, he didn't take a few steps, and he saw a person, and his face instantly pulled his crotch down.
"Mr. Meng." Lin Kai opened his mouth to stop Meng Bo, who was about to quickly slip away after making eye contact with him.
Meng Bo turned his head, pulled out a smile, and greeted Lin Kai with a hard head, "Teacher Lin is good, I haven't seen you for half a year, and Teacher Lin is in good shape again." β
The reason why Lin Kaikai remembers Meng Bo is because he is the most problematic student in his class and his biggest headache, Meng Ningning's uncle.
Meng Ningning has been in high school for three years, and this uncle has participated in the parent-teacher meeting every semester, and the whole class is the only one, and it is difficult for him to remember it or not.
At the parent-teacher meeting last semester, Lin Kaikai approached Meng Bo and hoped that the next parent-teacher meeting would be attended by one of Meng Ningning's parents in person, which would be very helpful to Meng Ningning's learning and growth.
I still remember that Meng Bo was full of promises at that time.
Who knows, it's still him who comes back.
"Mr. Meng, are Meng Ningning's parents here?" Lin Kai asked straight to the point.
"It's coming! Isn't that what is standing in front of you? Uncle is also a parent, the same! Meng Bo replied with a hippie smile, wanting to beat Haha and fool around.
It's a pity that Lin Kaikai is a more real person.
He shook his head, "Mr. Meng, you promised me last semester that you would let Meng Ningning's parents come to attend this semester's parent-teacher conference, Meng Ningning is in her third year of high school, and the third year of high school is the most important stage for a student, and parents must personally participate." β
"Teacher Lin, really, my sister wants to come, but she is too busy to take a break, and she can't work." Meng Bo knew that he was at a loss, so he could only find an excuse to save Meng Hanyu's respect.
Lin Kaikai said helplessly: "Do you know what Meng Ningning's biggest problem is? Lack of family care! If even parents don't care about her studies, how can you let your children grow up healthily? β
Can work be more important than a child's schoolwork?
Not to mention just taking an hour off.
The time for the parent-teacher conference was approaching, and Lin Kai made a long story short, "Mr. Meng, for the sake of the child's future, please be sure to inform Meng Ningning's parents to come and meet with me!" β
"Alright, alright, I'll pass it on." Meng Bo responded, his expression was very sincere. But I was complaining in my heart: Can I move my sister? I wouldn't be standing here now.
Lin Kai took a step first, Meng Bo wiped the sweat on his forehead, and suddenly felt a little strange, and when he looked back, he saw his niece Ning Ning, who was standing in the dark next to the stairs, looking at him quietly. I don't know how much I listened.
"Little girl, what are you hiding to scare your uncle?" Meng Bo complained with a smile and beckoned, "Come, come to my uncle's side." β
Meng Ningning usually has a very close relationship with Meng Bo.
But today, she took a step back and asked with a cold face: "What about my mother, why didn't she come?" Didn't she say that she would definitely come to the parent-teacher meeting in the third year of high school? β
"Ning Ning, mom went to work. If mom doesn't make money, how can you live a comfortable life, right? β
This made Meng Bo feel weak, even if his sister didn't do anything, the money she earned was enough for her and her mother to live a prosperous life for a few lifetimes.
Obviously, Meng Ningning is no longer a young and deceitful girl, she shouted angrily: "Liar! Words don't count as liars! I guessed correctly, she won't come! After scolding, he turned around and ran.
"Hey, Ning Ning, Ning Ning, my uncle has bad legs and feet, so he can't outrun you." Meng Bo chased forward for a while, Meng Ningning had already run away, he stopped, beat his legs and muttered: "I'm old, what's the point of being with a little girl." β
After that, he turned his head and went to the parent-teacher conference.
After the parent-teacher meeting, Lin Kaikai left Meng Bo and Meng Ningning alone and called them to the office together.
Meng Ningning was holding a lollipop in her mouth, looking like she was a child, even in front of the head teacher, she didn't care about her image. Because of her family's background, none of the teachers at the school dared to care about her, and none of them could control her.
After her parents divorced, it seemed that she could suddenly live in a lawless environment.
But she was only a little afraid of Lin Kai.
Teacher Lin said that teaching was very grinding, and she was afraid that someone would bother her in her ears. So when Meng Bo reached over and grabbed the lollipop from her mouth and told her to be honest, Meng Ningning didn't struggle and opened her mouth cooperatively.
"Mr. Meng, I don't mean to embarrass you."
"But as Meng Ningning's homeroom teacher, I have to be responsible for her."
"Do you know why Meng Ningning is obviously one of the smartest students I have ever met, but her monthly exam results are always outside the top two hundred?"
"Because she refuses to learn!"
"I don't mean flattery when I say she's gifted in learning. I gave her a make-up class separately before, and she studied hard, and she got almost a perfect score in the math test paper the next day! Such a smart child should not be delayed by anything! β
"I ask you, this time you must pass the word on to Meng Ningning's parents, and be sure to let them come and meet me."
Lin Kai said seriously and seriously.
Meng Bo, who was reprimanded, listened resignedly, and when he saw that Lin Kai looked at him after speaking, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher Lin, it's really not that I deliberately didn't bring your words to ......."
Meng Bo approached Lin Kaikai and lowered his voice: "Her parents divorced a few years ago, and her father didn't care about her at all, and her mother didn't have time to care." β
As soon as the words fell, Meng Ningning seemed to have been touched by the scales, and instantly burst out, "What are you talking about!" Why do you say it! I hate you! She rushed out of the office.
Lin Kaikai looked over in astonishment, only to see Meng Ningning's back disappearing with his eyes wiped his eyes.
Turning his head, he smiled at Meng Bo with an embarrassed expression, "Teacher Lin, look, my family Ningning, although my academic performance is not good, my long-distance running talent is still okay, huh?" Otherwise, let her learn physical education instead, and I heard that sports students can get extra points in the college entrance examination. β
ββ¦β¦β
Lin Kaikai was speechless by Meng Bo's brain circuit, but he still blamed himself more in his heart.
As Meng Ningning's homeroom teacher, he didn't know anything about her family situation.
Meng Bo straightened up and said, "Teacher Lin, I understand what you mean." Your words, I promise to get to the point. But as for whether my sister will come, I don't dare to pack the ticket. He lowered his voice again: "My family, my sister is the boss."
After speaking, he gave Lao Lin a 'you know' look, and then left the office.
Lao Lin, who was sitting alone in the office, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
For Lao Lin, every student is something he can't give up, and since he is their teacher, he has the responsibility to teach them well.
Thinking seriously about the future Lao Lin for the students, he seemed to have forgotten all the encounters this afternoon.
All his thoughts are on his students.
