Khaki-colored casual pants, a plain white shirt, and a pair of canvas sports shoes, it was a simple outfit, but it gave a person a refreshing and sunny feeling. With her cuff rolled up, two slender pale-skinned arms were exposed. If she weren’t holding a few textbooks, I would have thought that this girl was just a high school student.
“May I ask, you are?…”
“Elder brother, this is my teacher Ms. Shu,” Chu Yuan timidly took a quick glance at that young teacher, “Ms. Shu, he is my elder brother.”
She is really Ms. Shu, who was portrayed as a terrifying old witch by Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren?! I held back my surprise, reached out my hand in a friendly manner, and said, “Hello, Ms. Shu.”
Ms. Shu probably did not expect that Chu Yuan would call over her elder brother instead of her parents. She was a little surprised. Seeing that I said hello, she quickly walked a few steps forward, and said: “Hello, you can call me Shu Tong, may I have your surname- Ouch!”
The woman only paid attention to me and didn’t notice that there was a chair on the way, so she tripped on the leg of the chair next to her, lost her balance in a scream, and threw away her own teaching materials. Her both hands waved quickly in the air, attempting to regain her balance. However, not only did she not stop herself from falling, but she also knocked the books and teacup off her colleagues’ desk to the concrete floor…
Facepalm. I finally know why she bumped into Chu Yuan’s desk for no reason… She is too clumsy. Does this woman have no cerebellum? Why doesn’t she have any balance ability?!
Chu Yuan was also speechless and it seemed like she even wanted to laugh. I glared at her and then quickly went over to help this Shu Tong to pick up the stuff that fell on the floor.
“This is bad. This is the birthday present that Mrs. Cao got from her daughter. She won’t be angry at me, will she? Ah! Mrs. Meng’s lecturing material is wet! What should I do? She will definitely not accept my apology. Aw… Why am I so clumsy?”
You are indeed quite clumsy. I laughed secretly. This Ms. Shu was really something else. She just kept talking to herself. Seeing me squatted down to help her, she hurriedly said, “Oh, please, there is no need for you to do this. Please take a seat.”
“It’s okay.” I smiled and put the books I had picked up on the table.
Ms. Shu no longer declined my help. She scratched her head embarrassedly, and then asked that stupid question again, “may I have your surname?”
I was dazed for a second and then tried to stop myself from laughing, “My surname is Chu, and my first name is Nan.”
She looked at Chu Yuan, surprised: “Your surname is also Chu?”
Facepalm. Not only does she not have a cerebellum, but her brain is not well developed! I couldn’t help but laugh out, “Ye, yes, it is really a coincidence, my surname is also Chu.”
Chu Yuan blushed, seemingly feeling embarrassed that she had this kind of teacher, “Ms. Shu, he is my elder brother, of course, his surname is also Chu!”
Ms. Shu dazed, and then her face instantly turned red. Looking at it closely, it looked like a layer of red silk dampened by water, soft and tender, moist and smooth, her skin was as good as Chu Yuan.
“Ah, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. I was a little confused, hehe, hehe…”
Not a little bit, but very confused…
“Please sit down, Mr. Chu,” Shu Tong said to me after I had cleared away the broken pieces of the teacup on the floor. Earlier, this dummy even used her hands to pick the broken teacup instead of using a broom and dustpan. As a result, her finger was cut. This was the first time that I have met such a clumsy woman since I was a kid, “What would you like to drink? Tea, coffee, or other beverages? Oh, I’m sorry, I only have water…”
I… Speechless…
“It’s fine. I’m not thirsty.” Had I not seen her clumsiness, I would have thought that she was playing with me. This woman… How should I describe her? To put it in fashionable terms… A Natural Airhead?
Shu Tong felt a little embarrassed. After Chu Yuan helped her to apply a plaster, she bent her finger a few times and then gave an embarrassed smile, “I am sorry that you have to see this. I am a very clumsy person and I’ve made myself a laughingstock.”
“Not at all. We all make mistakes sometimes. Hehe…” Although I said this, I couldn’t help but think to myself, ‘you are the clumsiest person I have ever seen!’
“Mhm, Originally, I have a class, but after I realized that you were probably already here, I went to the classroom to explain to the students that it now changed to self-study. I’m sorry to keep you waiting this long.”
“It’s okay, I also just arrived,” with this kind of talk, our conversation would be going nowhere, so I got straight to the point, “Ms. Shu, Chu Yuan’s problem…”
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” realizing that she was too wordy, Shu Tong cleared her throat hurriedly, and her expression suddenly became serious as if she had just put on a new mask. “I think Mr. Chu should have already known why I invited you to come to school, right?”
Chu Yuan blushed. She felt so embarrassed that she didn’t even dare to lift her head. Quickly moving behind me, she didn’t even dare to sit down anymore. I smiled lightly, “yes, because she hid something that is not suitable for her age to see in her school bag.”
Shu Tong’ frowned, “Mr. Chu knows?”
I knew she must be wondering why I was so calm, but I still nodded, “Yes.”
Shu Tong said with a cold face, “Don’t you think this is a problem? Chu Yuan is only 16 years old. She is still a child.”
It was the first time that my dear little sister didn’t talk back when someone called her a child. But this time, I couldn’t help but frown because this woman was getting quite emotional. From this, I could see that the reason why she invited me to the school was not only out of concern for Chu Yuan, I guessed to a large extent, there were also some subjective factors in it, “Of course this is a problem, so I already criticized her very harshly yesterday.”
Shu Tong was looking up and down at Chu Yuan, making Chu Yuan feel so uncomfortable. She couldn’t help but take a step closer to me, timidly pinched my sleeves with her fingers, like a spoiled child seeking protection.
Shu Tong’s expression became colder again, “Just criticizing?”
I didn’t like her response, does she want me to hit my little sister? “Ms. Shu has a better idea?”
Shu Tong hurriedly said, “no, don’t get me wrong. I think that parents should pay enough attention to the mistakes made by Chu Yuan. After all, this is related to her future growth, especially for a good student like her. I think there are some things that may affect her study, things shouldn’t appear in her life, not to mention the kind of… the kind of unhealthy and unclean things.”
She was a young woman after all. When it came to such things, she not only had unconcealable disgust, but her face was red with embarrassment. However, I still agreed with what she said. “Ms. Shu, you are right, that’s why I have already scolded her sharply…”
“Scolding can’t solve the problem fundamentally. With all due respect, I think Mr. Chu doesn’t seem to take the problem seriously.”
I was dazed, “Ms. Shu, you confused me.”
Shu Tong seriously said: “Criticism and scolding are often just a momentary vent of anger. From the reliance on Mr. Chu that was shown by Chu Yuan now, I can only guess two results…”
Reliance? I looked at Chu Yuan suspiciously, and only then realized that this girl indeed regarded her teacher as a scary monster. Hiding behind me, a look of protected comfort and relief clearly appeared on her face. I glared at this smelly girl and then smiled at Shu Tong, “which two results?”
“First, after you scolded Chu Yuan, and after you were no longer angry, you would have no deeper worries and thoughts about her problems. Second, Chu Yuan admitted that she was wrong and decided to change, so you would feel relieved and think that she would not make the same mistakes again in the future. Perhaps you do not realize that giving a child too much trust is actually a form of indulgence, which may ruin a child’s future.”
Shu Tong’s current wisdom was in sharp contrast with her earlier clumsiness, it was just like she was a completely different person now. These two inferences made me even more surprised. Thinking about it carefully, just like she said, after scolding, I was indeed no longer that angry, and I also believed that Chu Yuan would not make the same mistakes again in the future…
I no longer dared to make light of the words of this clumsy woman and asked earnestly, “I wonder if Ms. Shu has any good ideas?”
When Chu Yuan heard my question, she suddenly panicked. Her small hand quickly pinched my back, seemingly wanting to warn me not to fall into Shu Tong’s trap. However, I just wanted to listen to Shu Tong’s idea, so I completely ignored her. After all, when it comes to educating Chu Yuan, I am just a layman. This may be a good learning opportunity.
Khaki-colored casual pants, a plain white shirt, and a pair of canvas sports shoes, it was a simple outfit, but it gave a person a refreshing and sunny feeling.
