Chapter 10 The Advantages of Thick Skin
Chapter 10 The Advantages of Thick Skin
Zhao Juan is the representative of the mathematics class. "This girl is a good girl!" This judgment comes from the original memory.
Fan Xiaotian often asked her to borrow money, and Zhao Juan would basically lend him money. She was a girl with a good personality. Of course, the original self had never borrowed money from her.
The original self-esteem was very strong, and he would not allow himself to ask for help from others. Come to think of it, when he was hungry, he would not even ask his own mother for help, let alone ask his classmates.
As time passed, the louder Zhao Juan cried the more she was comforted. No wonder a handsome author once said, "Some anxieties are caused by comfort."
People are prone to this. They wouldn't cry at first, but they can't hold it back once someone comforts them.
Gu Lu was thinking, but suddenly his mind was distracted. He saw his desk mate frowning and nervous, and suddenly he felt like playing.
He whispered to Zhou Lin, "The teacher is here."
"!" Zhou Lin's heart almost jumped out of her throat as she was concentrating so much. She quickly threw the homework to the ground on the right.
With a click, all the evidence was destroyed. Zhou Lin held on to the desk again and bent sideways to pick it up.
Wow, desktop cleaning master!
Zhou Lin’s plan was clever. As long as the teacher wasn’t caught on the spot, the teacher wouldn’t pay too much attention to what the good students did during their morning reading.
For a long while, there was no shrill voice from the math teacher, nor was there any sound of textbooks being placed on the podium.
Zhou Lin stood up slowly, but the math teacher was nowhere to be found in the classroom.
"Gu! Lu!" Zhou Lin gritted her teeth and glared like an angry little lioness, but finishing the homework was more important, so she left a sentence "You're dead after the get out of class!" and continued to concentrate on her homework, with her high ponytail also placed on the left.
Gu Lu was also reflecting on himself. He was so old but still so childish. It was not nice to disturb others when they were doing their homework.
Assimilated after just a few days of crossing? Gu Lu concluded that it was not the case! Because he was a mean person by nature, he could not help himself when he had the chance. When he was on Earth, he loved to hide in the corner and scare people.
Ten minutes later, it's time for morning reading...
People’s joys and sorrows are not shared, Gu Lu just thought, “It’s not a big deal, why are you crying for so long?”
Two minutes later, Math teacher Yan walked into the classroom. She was a little unhappy because she didn't hear the sound of morning reading starting in the classroom when she came from the corridor.
"Pa, tak, tak--" the sound of textbooks being placed on the desk and the force of stepping on high heels were also louder.
"Everyone, go back to your seats and sit down. Why hasn't morning reading started yet? It's already been three minutes." Teacher Yan called the roll, "Zhao Juan."
The noise in the classroom gradually died down as the teacher entered the classroom, especially when his sharp eyes swept around, there was even less sound, so Zhao Juan's sobs were particularly obvious.
"What's wrong? Why is Zhao Juan crying?" Teacher Yan noticed.
There is an unwritten rule among students that no matter how good their relationship is, as long as someone in the class is in a relationship, the students will help cover for them.
So many people responded:
"I was not feeling well, so I cried."
"Something happened at home."
"There is one question I can't answer."
……
Teacher Yan is over 30 this year, is he a fool? Definitely not. These students are making excuses at the same time, which is too inconsistent.
Can a liar check his confession?
"Quiet!" Teacher Yan yelled, "What's going on? Zhao Juan, raise your head and tell the teacher."
The power of blood suppression was demonstrated again. Zhao Juan raised her head pitifully, like a kitten abandoned in the rain.
Zhao Juan's bangs were soaked with tears and stuck to her forehead. She felt like she was standing on an iron chain hanging in the air. She felt sad and scared, and choked with sobs, "It's just..."
Most students have empathy with each other, so Class 5 is very quiet at the moment.
The few students who were on good terms with Zhao Juan were at least as nervous as those on the suspension bridge.
"I pushed Zhao Juan and bumped into the door, then I started crying. I've already apologized." Gu Lu suddenly spoke without warning. Teacher Yan turned his "torturing" gaze from Zhao Juan to Gu Lu, "Why did you push Zhao Juan?"
"It was just a joke. I didn't mean to use so much force. I've already apologized," Gu Lu replied.
It felt a bit wrong. If he was really hit by Gu Lu, why did Gu Zuoyan tell him? Teacher Yan looked at Gu Lu again, seeing that he looked honest.
Teacher Yan has been a teacher for five or six years, and he can tell at a glance whether a student is lying.
"The school has long told us not to chase and fight during breaks. Why are you crying so hard? Can you afford to pay for whatever happens?" Teacher Yan scolded.
Gu Lu defended himself, "I checked, there's no bruise or swelling, and I've already apologized."
"There's no bruises or swelling, it's more serious if it's just bones!" Teacher Yan said, "Get out and stand in the corridor during morning reading and the next class."
"I've already apologized." Gu Lu muttered quietly as he walked out of the classroom.
Teacher Yan's voice became much gentler. "Is Zhao Juan okay? Do you want to go to the school clinic?"
"It's okay..." Zhao Juan stopped crying, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"One rat shit spoils the whole barrel." Teacher Yan believed it completely and his logic became clear. The student didn't want to tell the teacher about the matter, so he hesitated.
"Go to the bathroom outside and wash your face. Next time Gu Lu bullies you, tell me directly. It's the same if you tell your class teacher, Teacher Li." Teacher Yan said.
"The teacher has already punished him for you, it's okay." Teacher Yan added.
The subtext of what Teacher Yan added was that the matter would be over after the punishment and not to tell the parents.
I heard from Teacher Li that Gu Lu's family is not well off. If Zhao Juan tells his parents about it, it would not be good if his parents ask him to pay compensation.
Zhao Juan stood up and walked out of the classroom, glanced at Gu Lu who was in a daze in the corridor, and then went to the bathroom.
"So I say, girls, don't go crazy with boys, especially someone like Gu Lu, who can't get into high school and can only go to a technical secondary school. What can he do after he graduates?"
It was true that Teacher Yan looked down on Gu Lu, and it was also true that he helped Gu Lu just now. The point of his last words was, "So study hard. There are only two months left. If you can get into a good high school, you will be one-third of the way to success."
Most of the students in Class 5 stopped listening to the teacher and were shocked by Gu Lu's behavior.
Awesome! Many students thought.
Even Ren Jie was thinking, "He's usually so gloomy, but this time he looks a bit handsome."
Soon, the sound of students from Class 5 reading mathematical formulas rang out in the classroom. "Generally speaking, the inverse proportional function y..."
Gu Lu will definitely lose to Zhao Juan and Zhou Lin in terms of exam papers, but in terms of thick-skinnedness and psychological endurance, he will win overwhelmingly.
After the first class and morning self-study, I was punished by standing. Before I had time to go back to the classroom to drink a sip of water, Teacher Li called me to the teacher's office.
Of course I heard what Teacher Yan said. As the class teacher, I should definitely take care of it.
So another round of criticism and education began.
"Tell me, if something bad happens, can you afford to pay for it?" Teacher Li ended with this sentence, "Okay, come back to the classroom next class."
Compared with other teachers' offices, Teacher Li's desk is a bit messy, with water cups, corrected homework, vases, alarm clocks... all messy.
"Okay, Teacher Li, I understand." Gu Lu didn't leave, but just told him about his own affairs, "Teacher Li, I have a favor to ask of you."
"What's the matter?" Teacher Li asked without raising his head.
"I want to participate in the Ye Shengtao Cup National Middle School Students' Essay Competition. Could you please help me register, Teacher Li?" said Gu Lu.
The registration method for the Ye Shengtao Cup is based on schools. I don’t know if it will be improved in the future, but now you need a school account to register.
"The teacher talked about the high school entrance exam. I went back and thought about it. If I can get a good grade, I might be admitted without taking the entrance exam." Gu Lu expressed his thoughts.
If you don’t explain it clearly, how can the teacher help you?
