Chapter 1066: Chapter 1022: Ordered to Drop Out Chapter 1066: Chapter 1022: Ordered to Drop Out “Wrong?”
“Not wrong!”
“And you’re still not wrong?”
These three phrases–the first spoken by Nie Zhenbang, the second by Dong Zhiping, and the third by Dong Wan–turned the entire scene into chaos. Dong Wan, trembling with rage, stood up. She had always been extremely strict when it came to the education of her children. Believing that a doting mother’s children often fail, Dong Wan was exceedingly harsh.
In the environment of Jingcheng, knowing what she did as someone who’d been through it, Dong Wan was acutely aware of the many unruly children of privilege in their circles. Hence, she had always been particularly stringent in educating Dong Zhiping, a practice compounded by some unique circumstances in their family. Since not all details were made public, only certain well-informed people were aware of Dong Zhiping’s identity, with most still in the dark.
“Could it be that my son has entered a rebellious phase?” Nie Zhenbang pondered deeply.
But the matter had not yet concluded. Dong Zhiping had just finished speaking when Nie Panpan, stubbornly lifting her head, said, “That’s right, brother is correct, we are not at fault.”
Nie Wenwen chimed in, adding fuel to the fire, “We are indeed not wrong.”
The situation had turned upside down, which was the only thought in the minds of the three ladies as they all stood up, watching as a storm was about to break.
At that moment, Nie Zhenbang stepped forward in time, positioning himself in front of the three children to block the imminent explosion of the three frustrated figures, and said, “Stay calm, stay calm, my wife, everyone, cool down. Whether at work or at home, an authoritative style simply doesn’t work. Since the children are sticking to their stance, we can’t just suppress them with power. They deserve an opportunity to voice their opinions. If we oppress and interfere so brutally, I think, even if they admit their fault, they won’t be convinced. Don’t you think so?”
The three women, being educated themselves, were strict but did not believe that filial piety comes from the stick. After pondering for a moment, they all sat down, but Dong Wan’s gaze remained stringent as she looked at Dong Zhiping, “Dong Zhiping, you speak. On what grounds do you believe you are not wrong?”
In the family register, Dong Zhiping followed his mother’s surname, but at home, they were still accustomed to calling him Nie Zhiping.
Before Dong Zhiping could say anything, Nie Zhenbang chuckled and said, “Wan, look, how can he speak properly while kneeling? It gives a sense of oppression. I think it’s better to sit down and talk.”
As his words ended, Yang Anna gave Nie Zhenbang a stern look and sarcastically said, “You just keep being the good guy. When the time comes for you to clean up after raising three spoilt brats, see how well that goes. A tender father makes a stern mother; you sure have arranged things nicely.”
Despite her words, Yang Anna still nodded, “Let’s all sit and talk. What exactly is going on here? Today, if you three can’t give a clear explanation, the deserved punishment won’t be lessened at all.”
In such a unique family, all three children knew too well that their three mothers’ words were always effective.
All three stood and sat down next to each other, exchanging glances. Eventually, their eyes settled on their eldest sister, Nie Wenwen.
Nie Wenwen faced her parents and said, “Today’s incident wasn’t the fault of Zhiping and Panpan. Our school announced a vacation, but Panpan and Zhiping’s teachers were forcibly demanding that they sign up for tutoring classes over the summer. Zhiping was fine, he didn’t speak up, but Panpan didn’t want to, and she clashed with the teacher. That teacher, lacking any manners, not only accused our family of being pretentious by sending us to an expensive school we couldn’t afford but went as far as threatening to make Panpan leave the school. Zhiping couldn’t stand it and stood up to the teacher, who then insulted him further, saying he lacked manners, and that’s how the fight started.”
Upon hearing this, the adults fell silent. All three were well aware of Dong Zhiping’s temperament, especially Dong Wan, who knew her son to be a reserved and introverted person who seldom spoke. However, Dong Wan was very clear about the burden her son felt, having uniquely changed his surname to Dong. Family and elders were his sensitive spots, and with the teacher speaking so thoughtlessly, wasn’t that provoking him? It was normal for him to react impulsively in such a moment.
However, on the surface, these words could not be said. Dong Wan’s expression was very stern as she looked at Dong Zhiping and said, “Zhiping, I know what you’re thinking. But no matter what, you can’t resort to violence. A gentleman is modest and courteous. Hitting someone is the behavior of ruffians. That’s wrong.”
As her words fell, Nie Zhenbang spoke up, “Zhiping, well done. As a role model for the students, one should set an example. Those who despise the poor, adore the rich, are vulgar, and insult students, do not deserve to be called teachers. A man of honor, in this life if you cannot even protect your own family and maintain the least dignity, what use is there for being a modest gentleman? You should take action when necessary. You should have some spirit. Huaxia lacks that spirit.”
After speaking, Nie Zhenbang did not care about Dong Wan rolling her eyes and said to the three women, “These years, the Ministry of Education, along with various other committees, have issued multiple notices. The province has also emphasized repeatedly that no form of tutoring should be given to primary and secondary school students under any name. It’s against the rules. This West Australia International School has obviously broken the regulations. Moreover, they have used coercive means, which is even more reprehensible.”
Pausing, Nie Zhenbang continued, “You all are aware that Yah and the others have studied abroad. They are accustomed to the relaxed environment overseas and unsatisfied with the cramming style of education here. More so, it’s already hard during the summer vacation and yet they still have to attend tutoring sessions. It’s inevitable for conflicts to arise.”
“I think this is what we’ll do; tomorrow, the three of you should visit the school. Let’s see how the school responds, and we’ll leave it at that for now. Children should enjoy the pleasure of learning in a relaxed atmosphere, not be forced to study like this.”
Truth be told, the three women of the Dong family weren’t unreasonable people, especially Dong Wan and Li Lixue, who after taking charge of Tenglong Consortium had lived abroad for many years and had experienced Western educational methods and philosophies. They had always been lenient in the children’s educational development, though they were stricter in matters of character.
Hearing Nie Zhenbang’s words, the three of them knew that what Nie Zhenbang had said was true. With a sigh, Dong Wan also nodded and said, “It appears this is the only way. It’s still early; let’s go today and show some sincerity since, after all, it was our children who hit the teacher.”
As soon as Dong Wan finished speaking, An Na stood up. Taking the three children, they walked out and quickly drove out of the underground parking lot in a Mercedes-Benz van.
West Australia International School was a well-known private school in Hongcheng, offering education from primary to high school, where everything could be handled in one step.
Furthermore, West Australia International School had business exchanges with many universities in Australia. High school graduates from the West Australia School could gain admission to Australian universities. Hence, since the school’s establishment, it has been favored by the province’s social elites, wealthy individuals, and government officials, who often sent their children there.
An Na had chosen this school because she valued the Western educational methods, which she thought would be easily accepted by the three children.
When the car arrived at the school, it was around four in the afternoon. Led by Nie Wenwen, they walked into the first-grade teachers’ office.
Upon entering, in the office, there was only one man around thirty-six or thirty-seven years old, dressed in a short-sleeved silk T-shirt. It even sported a Montagut flower logo, which wasn’t cheap.
Seeing Dong Wan and Yang Anna and the others, the man’s face changed immediately, he said sternly, “The three of you must be the parents of Dong Zhiping, Nie Panpan, and Nie Wenwen. How have you educated them? Do they no longer understand respect for teachers and the value of education? No manners. So rude and audacious, daring to attack a teacher. Now, I am formally notifying you that starting from next semester, these three do not need to come back. Find another school for them.”
The man had an arrogant demeanor, almost as if his nostrils were flaring towards the sky, displaying an air of superiority. Moreover, his words lacked any refinement, accusing them of having no manners and being rude right off the bat.
Instantly, Yang Anna’s anger flared up. When had the Yang family’s daughter ever been subjected to such an affront? Originally, Yang Anna was already annoyed with the three children for hitting someone, but now? Yang Anna felt they had been too lenient. Such a person deserved a harsh beating. As an educator who didn’t even behave like a teacher, how could he educate students?
Stepping forward, Yang Anna looked at the man and asked sternly, “May I ask what your honorable surname is, teacher? What is your position at West Australia School?”
Yang Anna’s tone of questioning caused the man to stand up, unyielding as he faced the three of them and said, “What position I hold is none of your business. I am not afraid to tell you that I do have the authority to expel these three bad students. And just so you know, my surname is Wu, my name is Wu De. If you dare, go ahead and take this up with the leaders of the education department or even Principal Tan of the school. As for the expulsion of these three, I’ve decided. Don’t think that having a bit of dirty money makes you important. This kind of student, I’ve seen plenty of–skimping and saving to get into a prestigious school. Can’t even pay a little tuition fee. Thinking they’re rich, schools like this are not for people like you.”
Throughout, Wu De had assumed that Nie Wenwen and the others were only from moderately well-off families. Such people did exist in West Australia International School, families with some financial means. To secure their children’s future, they would skimp and save just to attend this school.
But this grassroots dared to challenge his authority, so they needed to be severely punished. Otherwise, wouldn’t the world be turned upside down? (To be continued.
