Back to 1984: Let's Work Hard Together to Raise The Kids!
Chapter 81: Twists and Turns
CHAPTER 81: CHAPTER 81: TWISTS AND TURNS
Lin Qin laughed angrily, "Good! Very good! Since that’s the case, let’s wait and see. I refuse to believe there’s no justice in this world. You’re supposed to be a role model teacher? Ha! You’re nothing but a whore’s whore!"
An Meihua was furious and grabbed Lin Qin, "How dare you insult me?"
"How dare I? It’s because you’re cheap!" Lin Qin raised her chin defiantly, as if saying ’I insulted you, so what can you do.’
"How dare you insult my aunt? I’ll beat you to death!" An Yijie rushed forward.
Chen Xinyue immediately shouted, "He’s the one who led the attack on us."
Lin Qin recalled An Yijie bullying two kids by the creek, and as An Yijie charged forward, she unceremoniously slapped him, sending stars flying before his eyes.
The entire class watching the scene turned pale with fear, hurriedly leaving their seats and retreating, some going to find other teachers for help.
Seeing her nephew hit, An Meihua couldn’t hold back, screaming as she rushed to fight Lin Qin.
Lin Qin had been waiting for this moment, and she grabbed An Meihua’s hair, hitting her on the head.
She beat An Meihua until she howled in pain.
The principal and a group of people arrived just as An Meihua was being pinned down by Lin Qin, her face swollen like a pig’s head, crying until her voice was hoarse.
An Yijie was so scared he wet his pants, curled up in a corner, trembling.
"Stop! Stop!" Principal Li Maojie was so shocked by the scene in front of him he didn’t know how to react.
Several teachers quickly stepped forward to pull Lin Qin away, rescuing An Meihua.
An Meihua was beaten almost to fainting, her face swollen like a steamed bun, clothes disheveled, and her body covered in injuries.
Li Maojie hysterically shouted, "Call the police! Call the police!"
Chen Wenjun whispered a few words in Lin Qin’s ear and rushed out of the school faster than the teachers calling the police.
Li Maojie and the others thought Chen Wenjun was going to get reinforcements and became even angrier, collectively denouncing Lin Qin.
"Chen Ruiyu’s mother, no matter what misunderstanding between the children, you can’t resort to violence, and you beat the teacher like this, who would dare accept your children?"
"Exactly, Teacher An has taught for three years, she is an experienced teacher, she hasn’t even married yet, what if you ruined her face?"
....
Lin Qin let them point fingers, but she remained silent.
The two children huddled next to her, as if it gave them a sense of safety.
Li Maojie saw Lin Qin’s fearless, indifferent attitude and grew increasingly angry, shouting, "From tomorrow on, your two children are not welcome at our school! We can’t afford such students!"
Lin Qin’s lips curled into a cold, faint smile, arms crossed, "So the principal’s authority surpasses that of the education bureau. Nine years of compulsory education, you say expel and they’re expelled. So you’re all in this together, now I understand."
"Chen Ruiyu’s parent, don’t twist the facts. It’s clearly your fault, and it’s legal and reasonable for the principal to expel your children!" an elderly teacher indignantly lectured Lin Qin.
Amidst the chaos, An Meihua was taken to the village clinic by a teacher to get some treatment.
By the time they returned, the police and education bureau representatives had arrived one after the other.
At the same time, Chen Wenjun also came back, giving Lin Qin a reassuring look, putting her heart at ease.
Lin Yaonan scanned the room, focusing on Lin Qin, "Name."
"Lin Qin."
"Comrade Lin Qin, Anshan Community Primary School called the police saying you assaulted their teacher. What happened?"
Lin Qin, angry, pushed the two kids in front of everyone, "Officer, these are my two kids. This morning, when their grandpa brought them to school, they were fine. By noon when their grandpa came to pick them up, the kids were covered in injuries.
I came in the afternoon to speak with their class teacher, An Meihua, for an explanation. Instead, An Meihua ignored my kids’ injuries and even tried to blame them, saying the kids brought it on themselves. This type of person deserves scolding. I wasn’t wrong in calling out her lack of teacher ethics.
But she wanted to play the victim after being a bully. She lashed out in anger and pushed me, along with her nephew, that An Yijie, who actually attacked my kids, then dared to come at me, so I slapped him. An Meihua wasn’t having it, she struck first. I was simply defending myself, as so many people witnessed, I’m not lying!"
Several teachers exchanged glances.
Li Maojie was fuming, "Even so, you can’t just beat up Teacher An like that. She’s still a teacher, after all!"
Lin Qin laughed in her rage, "So what if she’s a teacher? Does being a teacher make her superior, able to categorize people? Do you know how awful her words were?
’Your two kids don’t get along with classmates and often mess around during class. They’re sensitive and don’t speak up. When I ask them in class, they can’t answer. I don’t know what they’re here to learn. They might as well drop out and get a job since they’d end up quitting anyway.’
People say teachers should be role models, but her behavior is nothing but the worst! I’m not afraid she’ll mess up the kids!"
After saying this, Lin Qin was still not relieved, squatting down to seriously look at the two children, "Tell the principal, teachers, and the police officer, did you cause trouble in class? Did you disturb other kids? Did you deliberately bully classmates?"
The two kids shook their heads in unison.
The elderly teacher crouched down, trying to make his voice sound gentle, "Tell the teacher, who did all this?"
Chen Ruiyu, being timid, stayed quiet, but Chen Xinyue, being bold, immediately pointed at An Yijie, "Him, and him, him, him..."
Chen Xinyue held grudges, identifying all the classmates who had bullied them, up to seven students.
The elderly teacher, infuriated, kept questioning, "Why didn’t you tell the teacher?"
Chen Xinyue lowered her head in grievance, "We told before, the teacher scolded us."
Seeing the children wronged, Lin Qin’s emotions surged again, "An Meihua is An Yijie’s aunt, they’re as thick as thieves. Of course, she wouldn’t stand up for my kids! My children suffered bullying for so long, just one beating is lenient!
When I go back, I’ll report her to the education bureau until she’s ruined!"
Huang Weixiong coughed twice, slowly stepped out, reaching out to Lin Qin, "Hello, Comrade Lin Qin."
