Chapter 16
Liu Yazhi immediately nodded and responded to Zheng Haishu: "It's hard work, Teacher Zheng, I have to go to school. I was supposed to go to school, but I was too busy and didn't make time. My family, Fanfan, did you get into trouble at school?"
Every parent who is approached by a teacher will have this doubt.Zheng Haishu drank the water and denied it first: "No, don't worry, I just want to know about Chu Bufan."
"Oh." Liu Yazhi thought of something, got up and said, "Mr. Zheng, wait a moment."
Soon, she took out a photo album from the cabinet and handed it to Zheng Haishu.
Zheng Haishu held it in his hand. It was an old photo album with a sense of age. Some pages had fallen off and were stuck with transparent glue, so he had to handle it gently.She opened it slowly and saw old photos of Chu Bufan's family of three.
From the moment she entered the door, she noticed that there were many photo frames in Chu Bufan's house, all of which were pictures of a family of three.
"My child's father used to like to take pictures, so there are many photos of my family." Liu Yazhi smiled plainly, "Mr. Zheng wants to know anything, just ask me."
Zheng Haishu actually didn't plan to mention Chu Bufan's father, but since Liu Yazhi said it, she doesn't shy away from it.In the photo, they smiled happily facing the camera, and they must have been very happy at the moment the photo was taken.
Zheng Haishu wanted to find an entry point, and naturally transitioned to the question of Chu Bufan's current situation.So she flipped through two pages of the photo album, and said, "Your husband's photography skills are really good, even a layman like me thinks it is good. With such a good influence, do you think about letting Chu Bufan develop into a photographer in the future?"
Liu Yazhi's smiling face froze for a moment, and then he said: "His father said so when he was alive, but I didn't tell the child anymore, and I didn't guide him in that direction."
She paused for a moment and explained: "At that time, Fanfan's admission to No. [-] Primary School was won by the parents of those students. From No. [-] Primary School to No. [-] Middle School, Fanfan not only did not have to take the exam, but also got a lot of fee reduction. We have always been very grateful. So I always ask Fanfan to study hard and don't disappoint my uncles and aunts."
The heroic deeds of Chu Bufan's father were on TV and publicized for a long time.Although Zheng Haishu had heard about it a long time ago, she also heard it from the school teacher in detail.But when she heard Liu Yazhi talk about the follow-up, she still couldn't help being shocked.
Those news, those sacrifices sound so far away and illusory, but they are bloody losses in reality, the pain of life and death.
It's just that Zheng Haishu doesn't agree with Liu Yazhi's statement: "Study hard for yourself first."
"Yes, for myself." Liu Yazhi smiled and agreed with Zheng Haishu.Then she said: "It's just that Fanfan was too obedient when I was a child, and I just got laid off. Raising a child by myself is difficult in terms of life and finances, and I rely on relatives to help me. So I only cared about myself and didn't take good care of Fanfan. , Fanfan has been able to wash clothes, cook meals, and do housework by himself since elementary school, he never acts coquettishly with me, nor is he self-willed like other children of the same age."
Liu Yazhi looked around and continued: "I was young at that time, and I couldn't help Fanfan understand death correctly. I put all these photos in place, just like his father hadn't left. I don't want him to know life and death at such a young age. I I want him to grow up happily, so I lied to him that my father is going to work in a place far, far away." Liu Yazhi showed guilt, her eyes flushed, "In retrospect, in fact, children are not stupid, he knows everything. I know, he just didn’t say anything. And he comforted me in turn, he is so young, he is helping me share the pressure in his own way. My family, Fanfan, is really sensible, very filial, and a good boy.”
If possible, Liu Yazhi doesn't want his son to be so sensible.Because Chu Bufan's sensibleness was caused by the breakdown of their family.
Although Liu Yazhi had a smile on her face, she choked up several times when she said this, and couldn't continue. She stopped to calm down, and poured a cup of tea for Zheng Haishu by the way.
"Chu Bufan is indeed a good boy, his teacher and classmates like him." Zheng Haishu comforted him.She is also a woman, sitting in this house, listening to Liu Yazhi's words, she seems to have personally experienced the difficulties and hardships of orphans and widows living on each other and carrying heavy burdens.
Just as he was about to continue, Liu Yazhi's cell phone rang.
Seeing that it was the employer calling, Liu Yazhi apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zheng, I have to answer it."
"Yeah, you're busy." Teacher Zheng held a teacup, watched Liu Yazhi answer the phone, and went to the balcony.
Before closing the door, Zheng Haishu heard a child's cry coming from the handset of the mobile phone, and an angry accusation: "Why haven't you come back?"
The door closed and the sound became quieter.
Zheng Haishu couldn't hear clearly, but only vaguely heard Liu Yazhi's apology.Therefore, Zheng Haishu thought of Liu Yazhi's hand holding the phone just now.
Those are the hands of laborers.Although Liu Yazhi, who is nearly forty years old, does not look old on his face, his hands are wrinkled, and the slightly raised blood vessels are clearly visible.Her cuffs have faded from washing too much, and she has some fluff.
Zheng Haishu's heart is heavy. In such a struggling family, children are all the mother's hope and comfort!How should she tell her that her son violated the school rules and disciplines at school, and was injured in a fight, so he won't let him in.
Jung Hae-sook couldn't say it.
"Okay, I will work one more day to make up for it." Liu Yazhi's voice came after opening the door, she hung up the phone, and apologized to Zheng Haishu first, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zheng."
"It's okay, if you're busy, go do it, I should go too." Zheng Haishu got up and said.
"Mr. Zheng, don't worry, my current income is not bad. It's no problem for Fanfan to go to college. The family won't drag him down." Liu Yazhi said hastily, "If Fanfan has anything bad at school, feel free to scold him. Call me."
"Well, Chu Bufan is doing very well, so you don't have to worry." Zheng Haishu changed her words and did not mention her previous intentions.
Liu Yazhi sent Zheng Haishu to the door, and wanted to continue to send Zheng Haishu downstairs, Zheng Haishu hurriedly stopped Liu Yazhi: "Don't send it off, I can do it myself."
"Okay, then teacher, go slowly." Liu Yazhi did not insist on sending it off, but sincerely thanked Zheng Haishu, "Thank you, Teacher Zheng, for taking this trip. My Fanfan has made you worry, thank you!"
Ding Xin moved away without a sound, and Chu Bufan was the only one left in the dormitory.Soon, March [-]th Women's Day is here.The school stipulates that female teachers can have half a day off. Students joke with each other and call girls "women". Some girls will get angry, and some will not.
Every holiday is also a time for parents to behave.Many activists began to find ways to give gifts to teachers, hoping that teachers would take better care of their children at school.This kind of atmosphere is especially serious in Class Nine.
But Chu Bufan didn't care about these things, his family never got involved in these matters.Because "314" is coming, it is Qin Su's birthday.
"Women, women, a little bit!"
"You're going to die!"
The class is still making noise.
In the background sound, Chu Bufan was thinking about what gift to give Qin Su.
Suddenly, someone shouted at the door:
"Chu Bufan! Someone is looking for him!"
