Chapter 62 corporal punishment
Listening to Gao Xiulian’s cry, Feng Ying almost didn’t reach out to help her, thinking she was on the stage in a trance. But she finally held back, coughed lightly, looked at the little girl beside her with red eyes and bit her lip and asked, “What’s wrong with your daughter?”
“My daughter was beaten!” Gao Xiulian said loudly, turning her head to grab her daughter’s hand, but she didn’t pull it.
Not only did she not pull it, but Zhao Mei wanted to put her hands behind her. Gao Xiulian was annoyed and scolded, “What’s the matter with you child? It’s fine if you go home with an injury and don’t say anything. Now that your mother brought you here to seek justice, you’re still flinching. Shrink! Quickly take your hands out!”
After speaking, he directly pressed Zhao Mei’s shoulders, restrained her body, pulled her hands out from behind her, and opened her fingers one by one to Feng Ying: “Headmaster Feng, you don’t know, my daughter arrived home last Saturday. At that time, I really didn’t have a piece of good meat in my hands, if it wasn’t for the persuasion from my family, I would have gone to your house to find you.”
Listening to Gao Xiulian’s words, Feng Ying looked down at Zhao Mei’s hand.
After a day and two nights, the red marks on Zhao Mei’s hands disappeared, and now there are only two scabbed scars left.
Feng Ying reached out and touched the little girl’s hand and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Zhao Mei pursed her lips and shook her head: “No…” Before she finished speaking, her mother pinched her lower back, “It hurts!”
Gao Xiulian wiped her tears next to her: “I know that it is only natural for a teacher to discipline children, but my daughter has always been obedient and her academic performance has always been very good. Why does she label her children like this?”
Feng Ying asked, “You mean that the injury on Zhao Mei’s hand was beaten by the teacher?”
Gao Xiulian was already prepared, and immediately took her daughter’s hand and said, “Look at this scar, it’s right on the palm, it must be my daughter who stretched out her hand, and someone else used a bamboo stick to smoke it! But my daughter is not stupid, others want to smoke her. , how can she be so stupid and stretch out her hand? It must be the teacher’s doing!”
Feng Ying looked at Zhao Mei, who had her head lowered, and asked, “Zhao Mei, did the teacher hit you for the injury on your hand?”
“Oh, Principal Feng, what’s the use of asking her? She’s just a gourd with a saw mouth, and the injury on her hand was discovered by our parents. After asking for a long time, she said it was the teacher who beat her up. You asked directly. How dare she speak?” Gao Xiulian shouted and blocked Zhao Mei with her body, she didn’t want the girl to talk nonsense and drag her back.
When the parent said so, Feng Ying couldn’t keep chasing after the little girl and asked, and only looked at Gao Xiulian: “Did you ask which teacher hit her?”
“Who else is there besides the new teacher Lin?”
Gao Xiulian did not hesitate: “My daughter was in the second grade, and she has never been beaten by a teacher before. Now that the substitute teacher has arrived less than half a month ago, her hands were beaten with blood. Principal Feng, you can Be the master of my daughter!”
Any change of person, whether it is the teacher who is suing or the parent who comes to complain, Feng Ying may have to believe this, but Gao Xiulian sued Lin Wei… Feng Ying felt that the credibility of this statement must be compromised.
It’s not that she is partial to the school teacher, it’s just that Gao Xiulian and Lin Wei are notoriously at odds in the family area, and Gao Xiulian was talking from beginning to end, and the person who was beaten only cried out in pain.
Seeing that Feng Ying didn’t speak, Gao Xiulian wiped her tears and said, “Principal Feng, you are the most fair person in our family area, but you can’t favor the substitute teacher Lin!”
“Don’t worry, if it’s really Teacher Lin who beat her, I will definitely not favor her.” Feng Ying said in a deep voice, leaving room for words.
Gao Xiulian was dissatisfied, but because of her status as Commander Feng Ying’s wife, she did not dare to accuse her, she only held her daughter’s thin wrist and said, “My daughter’s hands were still fine on Friday night, but she had blood on her hands when she returned home on Saturday. The other teachers have all taken leave, only Lin Wei’s class, not her, but who else?”
Before Feng Ying could answer the question, Gao Xiulian’s eyes widened and she asked incredulously, “You don’t think it was the child I beat and deliberately targeted Lin Wei?”
After Gao Xiulian asked, she was ready to swear and swear that the old shígG Dujia definitely did not hit her daughter.
As a result, before she could say anything, Feng Ying asked in surprise: “Comrade Gao, why do you think so? You and Comrade Lin have no grudges or grudges. Why do I think you deliberately targeted her?”
Gao Xiulian felt guilty when she asked this question.
Didn’t she just have a grudge against Lin Wei, so she deliberately targeted her?
Gao Xiulian originally wanted to be vague, but when the words came to her mouth, she remembered that she had a bad relationship with Lin Wei, and she complained behind her back that she had disturbed her work, and everyone in the family area knew it.
Now she is making excuses for her daughter to interfere with Huang Linwei’s work again… If she doesn’t choose herself now, if the news spreads, others will definitely think she did it on purpose.
Although she did it on purpose, she was not afraid of what others would think. Anyway, the matter was a foregone conclusion, no matter how much they whispered behind their backs, nothing would change.
But if she was vague today, Feng Ying swept Lin Wei out of the house, and finally heard from others that they had a bad relationship, what would she think when she heard other people’s guesses?
Do you feel like you’ve lied and turn it out again?
Thinking of this, Gao Xiulian explained: “I have a conflict with Lin Wei. I ask this because I am afraid that you have heard gossip and misunderstood that I deliberately targeted her.”
Feng Ying pondered: “That’s it.”
“Yeah!” Seeing Feng Ying’s attitude loosened, Gao Xiulian pulled Zhao Mei into her arms and said, “Principal Feng, what do you think, Xiao Mei is my daughter, I gave birth to her in October, and I worked hard to pull her. At this age, I have never been willing to touch her finger, even if I deal with Lin Linwei, it is impossible to beat her on purpose to blame someone!”
There are 700 to 800 students in the primary school in the military area. Feng Ying dare not say that she knows all of them, but she is familiar with these children in the family area.
Zhao Mei’s usual dress is not the best among these children in the family area, but it is not bad. The clothes are a little white after washing, but there are no patches, and they look clean.
People are not fat, but there are not many fat people at the end of this year, especially seven or eight-year-old children. It is the time of drawing. As long as they are not obviously malnourished, it is not a problem. Mei Li has a yellow face and thin skin, and is still far from malnutrition.
Although in this day and age, many parents believe in filial sons under the stick, and it is common for children to be beaten when they get into trouble. But some of his own children were willing to beat him to death. When his temper came up, he was punished by kneeling and beating the board. Seeing that the battle was big, it actually didn’t hurt much.
If the wound on Zhao Mei’s hand was beaten, it must have used something like a twig, but even if it was a twig, leaving such a deep scar, the person who hit the person must have used a ruthless hand.
Although Gao Xiulian’s reputation is not very good, Feng Ying has never heard of her habit of beating children.
But because of this, it was determined that Lin Wei beat him, and Feng Ying felt that it was too arbitrary.
Once Lin Wei became a substitute teacher, although she quickly managed the children in the two classes to be obedient, Feng Ying knew that it was mainly because she taught well in class, and the children liked her very much and never listened to her. Said she hit a student.
Second, although the teacher couldn’t help the teacher hitting the board, they were all equipped with teaching rulers. It hurts when the wide board is hit, but it will be fine after a while, and it won’t leave such a fine scar.
If the injury on Zhao Mei’s hand was really caused by Lin Wei, why did she abandon the ready-made teaching ruler and find a twig instead?
Feng Ying looked at the little girl who kept her head down in the office and asked, “Mr. Zhao Mei, is the injury on your hand really caused by Teacher Lin?”
Zhao Mei moved her shoulders when she heard the words, but before she raised her head completely, Gao Xiulian hurriedly said, “Principal Feng, what do you mean by asking this? My daughter is still a child. Could she still lie and wrong Lin Wei?”
Feng Ying is not a little military sister-in-law who has just joined the army. She will be frightened by a few words from Gao Xiulian. She frowned and said: “Comrade Gao Xiulian, I know that as a mother, your child was beaten, and you must be very anxious. Entering this office, you have been talking about it, the student Zhao Mei who was beaten has not made a sound so far, let me ask her one more question and confirm the situation with her, is there any problem?”
Gao Xiulian has always been bullying the soft and fearing the hard. Before Feng Ying was soft-hearted, she didn’t have a lot of scruples when she spoke. Now Feng Ying’s attitude is tough, and her momentum has softened. She smiled and said, “No problem, no problem, but you may not know, my girl’s personality. More introverted, Lin Wei’s beating her was only explained by our parents after we found out about the injury on her hand and kept asking her, so I’m afraid I’ll scare her.
Feng Ying raised his brows slightly when he heard the words.
Although she believes that tiger poison does not eat children, and thinks that Gao Xiulian will not deliberately beat her children and frame Lin Wei, but she asked Zhao Mei twice to confirm whether the injury on her hand was hit by Lin Wei. Interrupting Zhao Mei’s answer twice is really suspicious.
After thinking for a moment, Feng Ying said, “Although you are right, Teacher Lin beat up Zhao Mei, but as the principal of the school, I can’t be partial. How about clarifying this matter?”
Gao Xiulian thought that the evidence was conclusive, so what else was there to confront?
But when she met Feng Ying’s serious eyes, she didn’t dare to say these words, but smiled flatteringly: “You are the principal, I listen to you, but my daughter has always been honest, she will definitely not lie and deceive. Me.” The implication was that her daughter must have been beaten by Lin Wei.
Feng Ying didn’t answer Gao Xiulian’s words, got up and said, “Sit down in the office for a while, and I’ll call Mr. Lin.”
Gao Xiulian hurriedly responded, with a smile on her face she sent Feng Ying to the door of the office, and when she saw her figure was blocked by a row of houses in front of her, she changed her face and turned to look at Zhao Mei: “Principal Feng will ask you if the injury is on your hand later. It wasn’t Lin Wei who fought, do you know what to say?”
Zhao Mei lowered her head, bit her lip and said nothing.
Seeing her sullen appearance, Gao Xiulian was very angry. She clearly told her what to say when she was at home, but when Principal Feng asked her if she was in pain, she almost replied that she was not in pain, and didn’t care at all. Take your own words to heart. Thanks to his quick response, he reached out and pinched her, so that she changed her mind and said it hurt.
If it weren’t for this, Gao Xiulian wouldn’t have dared to let her speak again when Principal Feng asked questions later, which caused Principal Feng to have doubts and wanted to confront Lin Wei.
Thinking of this, Gao Xiulian reached out her hand and wanted to pinch Zhao Mei’s ear, but thinking that Principal Feng was coming back soon, she would definitely ask when she saw her ear was pinched red, so she pinched her back and asked, “Did you hear what I said? ”
Although Gao Xiulian didn’t pinch hard, the flesh on her waist was softer than other parts, and she was more intolerable to pain.
Zhao Mei was pinched and cried, “It hurts!”
There was no distress on Gao Xiulian’s face, and she only said, “If you know it hurts, just obey me, and you can say whatever I want you to say, you know?”
Zhao Mei whimpered and said, “I know, I know.”
Seeing her daughter let go, Gao Xiulian’s face softened, and she rubbed her waist and said, “Dear me, be obedient. When this is over, my mother will buy you delicious food and make new clothes for you, okay?”
Zhao Mei wants to say that she doesn’t want delicious food or wear new clothes, she just wants to continue studying and be an honest good boy. But looking at her mother’s cold eyes, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth and slowly lowered her head.
…
Lin Wei was sitting on the podium, flipping through the lesson plan to review what she was going to talk about today, when she suddenly heard someone call her. Looking up at the door of the classroom, she saw Feng Ying beckoning her to go out.
Lin Wei had some doubts in her heart, she walked quickly to the door and asked, “Why are you here, Principal Feng?”
“I have something to look for you.” Feng Ying’s expression was serious.
Seeing this, Lin Wei’s expression became a little more solemn: “What do you have to do with me?”
Feng Ying stared at Lin Wei and said, “Just now, Comrade Gao Xiulian came to my office and said that you physically punished the student and injured her daughter.”
