Chapter 144: Back to School
Grandpa went with his grandson, and his grandson led the way to Mr. Kong's bedroom.
Teacher Kong was preparing for class at the desk with the lamp on, and when he saw that Ye Wufu had brought an old man, he put down the chair he was carrying, guessing that it was his grandfather, but he couldn't get it for sure, so he asked, who are you Ye Wufu's classmate?
I am his grandfather, Ye Wenliang. I picked him up this morning from the children's labor camp, and I felt that it was better to send him to school, because if he didn't waste his embryo outside, it would ruin his life. He pointed to the wooden chair that he had put down just now and said, Mr. Kong, you are very concerned about my grandson, according to my wife, for the sake of me, a grandson who has committed an accident, you also specially went to my house, I was not at home that day, I was really neglected.
Kong Zongru pushed the textbook slightly, and smiled bitterly, this is because he has a hard time, since the day Ye Wufu was arrested and sent to the children's labor camp, the school made the decision to expel Ye Wufu's classmates.
He was embarrassed to say it to Ye Wenliang, so he took out a red-headed document from the folder hanging on the wall and showed it to the old man, and a row of bold characters of Maanling Elementary School's decision to expel Ye Wufu from the semester jumped into view.
Ye Wenliang didn't look at it much, and quickly put down the document he was holding, and he asked Teacher Kong with a sad expression, is there any remedy?
The documents are all down, and it's hard to do. Kong Zongru looked embarrassed, and then pointed to the wooden chair and said, "You move back!" Daddy Ye, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you.
Forget it, this wooden chair is still given to you, after all, you have been Wufu's teacher, and besides, this thing is not worth a lot of money. The old man said calmly.
Then he took Ye Wufu's hand and was about to leave, Kong Zongru suddenly stopped him and whispered, Daddy Ye, I suggest that you give this wooden chair to Principal Jin, and I will tell him about your grandson, as for whether it works or not, then I am not sure.
I don't know Principal Kim, how can I send it? Besides, I don't know if he wants this worthless thing.
You can give it a try.
Teacher Kong, lead the way with me!
Teacher Kong Zongru walked out of the dormitory to the corridor to take a look, turned back to Ye Wenliang, who lifted the wooden chair, and said, Daddy Ye, it's not a coincidence, you see that Principal Jin's dormitory on the other side of the corridor is dark, and he may not be in school. Ye Wenliang put down the wooden chair and said, I will bring my grandson to you tomorrow, and I have to ask you for help in this matter.
That's the only way, you grandparents and grandchildren will go back first. Kong Zongru said, sending them out of the school gate, looking at the two backs, one tall and one short, disappearing into the vast night, but there was a sense of loss.
He even thinks that the school's decision to punish is too hasty. Shouldn't Ye Wufu, who originally needed education to save him, ruthlessly push him into the society? He is still so young, and he has been deprived of his right to education at such a young age, and this practice may ruin his life, and this issue deserves reflection in schools.
In the early morning of the next day, before the regular bell of the school rang, Kong Zongru heard a slight footstep outside the door, he got up in his clothes and opened the window to look out, it was Ye Wenliang's grandfather and grandson who had come last night. Ye Wenliang smiled at him and said, Teacher Kong has disturbed you.
Never mind. Kong Zongru said, quickly got dressed and opened the door to invite Ye Wenliang's grandfather and grandson into the house, and then closed the door, glanced at Ye Wufu, who seemed to have nothing happened with his schoolbag like in the past, and then said to Ye Wenliang:
Shortly after you left last night, Principal Jin came back, and I specially told him about Ye Wufu's desire to continue his studies, and he began to disagree, saying that the expulsion of Ye Wufu was the decision of the school committee, how could it be revoked casually, it seemed too unserious, right?
But I didn't give up, pestered Principal Jin to do a while of work, and said on the line that Ye Wufu is still young, although he was wrong, but he was punished and educated, and he also showed remorse, if the school kicked him out of the school, it would be tantamount to kicking the school's problems to the society, which is an irresponsible attitude.
As far as Ye Wufu is concerned, what will be the result if he does not receive education at the age when he should receive education? caused illiteracy and hooliganism, and the school became a booster for him to accelerate his deterioration, which can be said to have really ruined Ye Wufu's life.
Principal Jin pondered for a moment, perhaps thinking that what I said made some sense, and finally told me that the expulsion of Ye Wufu was a decision of the school committee that could not be revoked for the time being. Since he still wants to go to school, which is also legitimate, let him stay in your class and see how he behaves. Now that it's the end of this semester, if he has been behaving well and not committing crimes, it's not too late to revoke the disciplinary decision, what do you think? I said yes. I also brought the wooden chair you sent me from my bedroom last night and gave it to him.
Hearing Kong Zongru say this, Ye Wenliang glanced at his bedroom, and sure enough, he didn't see the wooden chair, so he said excitedly, Teacher Kong, thank you! You really deserve to be the descendant of Master Confucius, you have put into practice the idea of "education without class" of Master Confucius, which is really benevolent and righteous! It's hard to find such a good teacher now, and my grandson Ye Wufu is lucky to have met you, a good teacher who is helpful.
Daddy Ye, if you want to say good, I'm not good, you have won the prize. You don't have to thank me, you should thank Principal Kim, he is better than me. When Kong Zongru said this, he heard the school's school bell for getting up early, and after the bell rang, he continued:
The reason why I say that Principal Kim is good is because he is rigorous in dealing with problems, has a proper approach, and is motivated by public intentions.
I said that the wooden chair you moved, I gave it to him on your behalf as a reward, but he didn't want it, so I moved it to the school office, saying that if the teachers are tired from preparing for class, they can take turns leaning on the wooden chair to rest, wouldn't it be better?
As for Principal Kim's decision not to immediately revoke your grandson's dismissal, but to let your grandson continue to attend school, you should understand his actions.
Mr. Kong, I understand, and I thank Principal Jin from the bottom of my heart, he not only upholds the authority of the school's resolution, but also protects my grandson's right to continue school-age education. Ye Wenliang cocked his thumb as he spoke.
Kong Zongru didn't say anything more to Ye Wenliang, but said to Ye Wufu, who was standing next to him with a schoolbag on his back, you have always gone to the classroom to sit in your original seat, and I was about to adjust my seat today, but fortunately I haven't adjusted it yet.
Don't thank Mr. Kong yet? Ye Wenliang saw that his grandson was silent, lowered his head slightly, and the portrait became wooden, so he taught him to speak to him obediently.
Before Kong Zongru could wait for Ye Wufu to speak, he grabbed a white sentence, no need to thank you. Ye Wenliang nodded at Kong Zongru and walked out of his bedroom with his grandson and went up to the corridor, and their grandson was about to separate.
Ye Wenliang instructed his grandson, you have to fight for it! If it weren't for Mr. Kong to help you speak and get the principal's consent, you wouldn't have been able to go to school, you know?
Ye Wufu nodded, and walked straight towards the familiar but somewhat unfamiliar class six (two) classroom, because it was empty early, he was still sitting in the seat on the left side of the fourth row of the original three groups, opened the drawer and prepared to put his schoolbag in, but found that there was a thick stack of math homework books in the drawer, which should be handed over to the math teacher by the member of the study group in the class, how to put it here? Even if you put it, you should put it in the front two rows of your desk drawer.
Ye Wufu was puzzled at first, and then concluded that it might be the tail that occupied this seat, which made him a little angry, he quickly cleaned out a pile of math homework in the drawer and put it on the table, if he would normally scold a few words with foul language, and even find the tail and complain for a while, but now he doesn't dare, he feels that he has been punished by the school and has become a broken brain, he must be honest, even if he is suppressed, he must endure it.
