In fact, there are many such things in school, parents invite teachers to dinner, and even give teachers some gifts, hoping to use these means to let teachers take more care of their children. This is a helpless thing, we are a humane society here, and it is understandable to want your children to be taken care of more.

I used to be a substitute teacher, and I didn't have any experience as a class teacher, so I rarely encountered such things.

In addition, there is also the relationship between disciplines, generally speaking, mathematics, English, even physical chemistry teachers, in front of parents are much more popular than teachers who teach Chinese, to say the reason, probably is that we have long regarded mathematics, physics and chemistry as more important than liberal arts.

This time, Xiao Qi's mother invited me to dinner, and I actually felt a little angry in my heart, my own students were angry, and it was a matter of making the teacher angry no matter what.

It's just that every time Xiao Qi, a student, invites him, the result seems to be very surprising.

The last time he celebrated his birthday was in the club opened by Peng Zhen, putting aside Peng Zhen's identity, just saying that kind of environment cannot be regarded as a suitable place for junior high school students to celebrate their birthdays anyway.

And this time it was even more exaggerated, the place where Xiao Qi's mother invited me to dinner was actually in Pangu Qixing.

When this Pangu Seven Star was built, the advertisement of "the only hotel located on the central axis of the capital" on this sentence instantly made no one on the streets and alleys know it, it was too domineering.

The central axis of this thing, as long as you have been to the capital, there is no one who does not know, the entire Forbidden City is built along this line, for us who grew up under the feet of the imperial city, this place is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of status.

Xiao Qila, I came to Pangu Qixing, and there was a meal under my feet, this kind of place is not an ordinary place to invite guests to eat at all.

Xiao Qi saw that I was hesitant, so he explained to me on the side, "My mother likes afternoon tea here, don't be afraid, Mr. Lin." ”

It's not a question of whether I'm afraid or not, I look at Xiao Qi, and I really can't understand what kind of weird behavior my student's mother has done to invite me to afternoon tea.

When I was about to turn around and leave, Xiao Qi grabbed me and grinded hard, and finally said directly: "Teacher Lin, you said that people should be true to their word, you have obviously agreed, and the status quo cannot be reversed!" ”

It's a self-defeating mouthpiece.

If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have come to kill me.

was brought in by Xiao Qi all the way, this kind of place is naturally high-end and high-grade, and being in it can make you understand that you are out of place. It is a symbol of the so-called status of their rich people.

Xiao Qi looked very excited today, "Teacher Lin, what do you think of here?" If you like it, next time we'll ask my brother-in-law to come along, okay? ”

He suddenly mentioned Ji Hetong, which made me vigilant.

Looking at Xiao Qi's eyes carefully, I haven't forgotten this kid's intimacy with Ji Hetong, it is very likely that he was instigated by Ji Hetong today and deliberately arranged such a show for me.

It's just that Xiao Qi is very slippery, not at all like the average fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with a simple mind, he pretends not to understand anything, and it looks like it makes people gnash their teeth.

After entering the special hall for afternoon tea, my first reaction was to look around, and I was relieved that I didn't find Ji Hetong's figure.

Although Ji Hetong has not appeared in front of me in the past few days, his sense of presence is full, and the flowers sent to the school have made me a popular figure in the school. Everyone knows that I suffered from Yami's betrayal and divorce with Zhang Xu before, but it has only been a few months, and there are men who pursue me in a high-profile manner, or in such a violent and very existential way as sending flowers, colleagues are stumbling and saying a lot of words.

Not only the school, Ji Hetong himself did not visit the door of my mother's house, saying that he was very busy with work. But the construction of the building next door to my house stopped, and according to the neighbors of the vegetable market, it was because there was a cultural relics protection unit in this area, so it could not be demolished for the time being.

My mother firmly believes that this is what Ji Hetong did, although my previous warning still worries my mother, but Ji Hetong's ability is too much for my mother to like.

Open your mouth and close your mouth, you followed Zhang Xu before, but now it's okay, this He Tong is designated to have a big future, you follow him, and I am afraid that there will be a great creation in the future.

Some things, as long as the benefits or fantasies it brings to you are too strong, then the grievances and sadness in them seem to be less difficult to accept.

Just like those young college students who want to become stars, the interests and fantasies of becoming big stars in the future are too attractive to them, so even if they encounter the bad luck of being unspoken rules, being bullied, being treated unfairly, etc., they seem to be able to bear it.

My mother's current situation is a bit of a sign of this, she is satisfied with what Ji Hetong thinks, and even told me that if Ji Hetong's parents don't agree, let me get pregnant out of wedlock.

I really feel that my mother has changed, she is no longer the woman who gritted her teeth and insisted on back then, even if she was poor and could only work as a coolie to support her family life, she was just a little bit of her pride.

I couldn't help but ask my mother, "When the days were so hard, you told me to fight, study hard, and be an upright person, why do you say such things now?" If you really plan to do this, why did I have to go to school so hard back then, just pay a lot of money. ”

I can't figure it out.

My mother listened to my words, and remained silent for a while, and finally said in a tone that saw through everything: "That's what I thought back then, study your own, have a good job, and then find a husband who is not very rich but considerate, so that this is the best life for a woman." I've let you do all of this, but what is the result now? You are divorced and you have walked back to my old path, and I just have to think that you will have to suffer so much like me in the rest of your life, and my heart and liver will ache. I still have you, and I have hope, but what about you? Is this going to be like me for the rest of my life? It's too bitter. ”

"I survived those days with a breath in my heart, and now that I think about it, I really can't think back. Mom has figured it out, what's the use of people wanting so much backbone and so much pride? It's not that you have to endure hardships all your life, and you don't even have a person who hurts you. I've watched a lot of "Legal Online" recently, and those good women don't end up with anything good. Mom doesn't want you to be a woman, what are you afraid of with some means, who knows who gets the benefits. ”

My mother told me what was in my heart, and I was ashamed of what I said.

What has supported my mother to survive for so many years is the longing in her heart, if she could read more books when she was young, have a good job, and find someone who knows cold and hot, then all the hardships she encountered later would not have appeared? No matter how hard she tried, she made me go on what she thought was the best life.

As a result, the failure of my marriage with Zhang Xu completely broke her.

It seems that the attachment in the first half of his life is a joke.

Now my mother has completely abandoned the previous outlook on life, she thinks that the benefits are the best, and even let me get pregnant unmarried regardless of my face, I don't agree with my mother's current view of how to behave, I think she is completely on the pendulum life, in this extreme was frustrated, and then immediately rushed to the other extreme, so the way to deal with the two poles, in fact, is more risky.

I didn't agree or disagreed, but after my mom said something to me, I suddenly realized that my divorce was also an unforgettable blow to my mom.

I don't know how many mothers have pinned their life's hopes on their daughters, anyway, my mother is like this.

She seems to be hoping that I can go through a life for her that she has never had, and now that I have failed, it shows that not only is her own life a failure, but even the life she has imagined in her mind that she is full of expectations is also a failure.

Such a huge sense of failure destroyed all my mother's original outlook on life.

She is like this, and I have a responsibility that I can't shirk.

In order to make her feel more comfortable, I told her that I actually have another person to develop in addition to Ji Hetong now. After all, I live with my mother now, and it is impossible for Peng Zhen to avoid my mother's eyes when he calls or something, so I simply said something, but I never mentioned Peng Zhen's name.

My mom seemed a little surprised, she probably never thought that I would have such a good market after the divorce.

It's really helpless.

I told her: "Don't be too enthusiastic about Ji Hetong first, I still have to investigate and investigate, and this time I must not choose a scumbag blindly." ”

Hearing this, my mother nodded.

My ears can be quieted for a while, but I'm not sure how long my mom can last with Ji Hetong brushing her presence everywhere like this.

Originally, I was only Xiao Qi's family and wanted to talk to the teacher, after all, the child is in the third year of junior high school and is about to go to high school, which is a major event in the child's life.

But coming to Pangu is so weird, I have to wonder if Xiao Qi was instructed.

Xiao Qi couldn't see anything on his face at all, so I could only comfort myself, maybe I was too careful, today is just a teacher-parent interview, and there is no other intention for the child's education.

Xiao Qi led me to a table and called out with a smile, "Mom." Look, this is our homeroom teacher, Mr. Lin. ”

Xiao Qi's mother was sitting, with gold-rimmed eyes, not the old-fashioned and earthy kind of eyes, but the kind of eyes that are popular nowadays, the kind of big gold-framed eyes.

She lowered her head and read the fashion magazine in her hand.

I actually don't like this kind of meeting, I have met with a few parents of students before, and the attitude of those parents can be described as warm and respectful, not to mention that I walked up to me and was still sitting. They all stood up to meet me from afar.

It's not that I want a lot of pomp, it's that these two attitudes are put together, and the gap is so big that I can't adapt to it at all.

Hearing Xiao Qi's scream, Xiao Qi's mother raised her head, with a slight smile on her well-maintained face, her eyes were big, her eyelashes were long, and her nose was not very straight, but it was round and round, it was the kind of hanging gall, with a slightly upturned mouth, she didn't look like a stunning beauty, but she had a special sense of beauty.

When people see it, they feel very intimate and familiar.

But soon, I understood where this feeling came from, if I looked closely, I could actually find that Xiao Qi's mother's appearance was actually somewhat similar to mine.

It's just that I'm young, and my face is a little sharper. She is middle-aged, she looks more gentle, and of course she has a lot more luxury than me.

Not only was I stunned, but Xiao Qi's mother on the other side was also stunned.

Xiao Qi didn't speak, just laughed.

He was actually looking forward to today's scene, and from the first time he saw the head teacher, he found that he looked like his sister. That indescribable familiarity gave him a natural liking for the new homeroom teacher.

Later, he not only helped stabilize the atmosphere in the class, but even called Ji Hetong.

Ji Hetong has been good to Xiao Qi over the years, and in Xiao Qi's heart, the position of his brother-in-law is actually much more important than his sister, who disappeared early. And Xiao Qi has reached adolescence and has the purest longing for love, in his opinion, Ji Hetong can not talk about girlfriends and get married for his sister for many years, which is completely the best example of love.

But Xiao Qi felt sorry for Ji Hetong.

He hoped that Ji Hetong could find his own happiness, and when he saw his homeroom teacher, Xiao Qi thought for sure, this is probably the so-called reincarnation marriage, and it is bound to be affectionate and loving forever.

So no matter what Ji Hetong wants him to do, he is willing, as long as he can match Ji Hetong and his own head teacher.

was completely different from what Xiao Qi imagined, he thought that his mother, who had missed his sister for many years, would be excited and happy to see the head teacher, just like Ji Hetong at the beginning, but he didn't expect his mother to calm down in the next moment, and there was no smile at all.

Xiao Qi looked surprised, "Mom? ”

He doesn't understand, but I do.

If I, the beloved, passed away, and one day I saw someone who looked like her, I am afraid that it would arouse the deepest sadness in my heart, and it would be impossible to be happy at all.

Xiao Qi's idea was too naïve.

Thinking about it this way, Ji Hetong is also very strange, he should react the same as Xiao Qi's mother, seeing things and thinking about people, feeling depressed, where will there be any happy and happy emotions.

Xiao Qi's mother controlled it fairly well, and she didn't lose her temper in front of me, but she stopped looking at me after that, and she didn't even look at my face.

The expression is faint, like the appearance of a business-like character.

Xiao Qi sat down next to his mother, scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, the scene that Ji Hetong told him shouldn't be like this, shouldn't the two of them hug and cry and become a family? How did it become like this now?

Compared to Xiao Qi, I am much more comfortable.

I came today to meet the parents of the students and do a mobilization meeting for the third year of junior high school, hoping that the parents can cooperate with my work and let the students sprint well in the third year of junior high school.

"I have seen Xiao Qi's results this time, and I am very grateful to Mr. Lin for taking care of him, he has improved a lot."

As long as her eyes don't look at me, Xiao Qi's mother can still basically maintain the state that parents should be, first of all, she thanked me.

I politely said: "This is Xiao Qi's own efforts, and what I do is just my part." ”

Next is the highlight I want to say, I said bluntly, "As a class teacher, I have high expectations for Xiao Qi, and the third day of the new year is also very important for children, after all, if you are admitted to a key high school, it will be regarded as one foot in the door of the university." At the same time, I also hope that parents can cooperate with my work, and it is best to control their children's lives. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, children do not have the self-control ability of adults, and children can easily fall into Internet addiction and cannot extricate themselves. Parents should pay more attention to this aspect. ”

Xiao Qi is a veteran game fan, and I caught sleeping in class a few times because he played games all night the night before.

I think this issue is very serious and I need to communicate with the parents, and if it weren't for this, I wouldn't be here today.

Xiao Qi's mother turned around in the coffee cup with a spoon in her hand, affirming my thoughts, "Okay, I didn't care much about this matter before, since Teacher Lin said so, then I must pay attention." ”

Parents who cooperate in this way are the most liked by teachers.

I saw that the effect was good, so I put forward another one, "The child is not very old, and some places are still not suitable for him to enter, like that kind of club, or try not to go." ”

That kind of place is mixed with dragons and snakes, chaos is certain, and at Xiao Qi's age, he is the easiest to be fierce and ruthless, plus Xiao Qi's own temperament is very impulsive, it is really necessary not to let him go to those places.

Speaking of this, Xiao Qi's mother turned her head, "Have you ever been to that kind of place?" ”

Xiao Qi was eager to look forward to the meeting between the teacher and his mother just now, but after listening to the conversation, it was really the same as eating Huang Lian, not letting him play games, wouldn't it kill him.

At this time, I heard my mother ask, and I said weakly: "It was my brother-in-law who held a birthday party for me there." ”

Unexpectedly, a simple sentence caused a lot of dissatisfaction from Xiao Qi's mother, "What is your brother-in-law?" Don't talk nonsense about things that don't have a shadow in the future! Do you think the Ji family is really rare, your sister! ”

The elegant lady suddenly lost her temper, and there was really no way not to be noticed.

Xiao Qi pursed his lips and agreed.

When Xiao Qi's mother turned to face me, her eyes could already look at my face, and she said: "If Teacher Lin hadn't told me about these things today, I'm afraid I would still be completely in the dark and didn't know, Teacher Lin, in the future, you can rest assured, I definitely have to take a good look at this kid!" ”

With this sentence, I am relieved.

I have said everything that should be said, and I don't need to stay longer, stand up and say goodbye to Xiao Qi's mother, and then leave.

Xiao Qi chased him out and said angrily: "Teacher, how can you sue in front of my mother!" ”

I laughed, "How do you call a black complaint?" ”

Xiao Qi was still angry, and said hatefully: "I didn't expect you to be such a person, I don't like you anymore, and I don't trust my brother-in-law anymore!" ”

"Your brother-in-law?" How can you mention Ji Hetong again.

Xiao Qi was completely out of the way at this time, "Yes, he asked me to bring you to see my mother, I won't trust him anymore!" He's coming right away, and you'll see him when you go out! ”

My head was buzzing, and the preview told me that it was definitely not easy for Ji Hetong to arrange for me to meet Xiao Qi's mother.

I turned and walked away, almost trotting, I wanted to leave this place before Ji He came, I had no desire to see him at all!

I was walking briskly, and suddenly someone grabbed my arm, the force was not small, and because of inertia, I slammed into the arms of the person who pulled me.

The familiar smell invaded my nose, and I almost screamed, "Peng Zhen! ”
