It was winter vacation at that time, most students were on vacation, and the whole campus was very deserted.
The security guard noticed her standing at the door and looked her up and down: “You are on vacation from university, so you came back to visit your teacher, right?”
There are tutoring sessions for senior year students, so there are still classes going on in the school.
Without waiting for Myrna to speak, he waved his hands behind his back and coughed lightly: “Go in, be quiet, don’t disturb the senior class.”
Myrna : “…” As expected, silence is golden.
She didn’t really come to visit the teacher, so she didn’t go to the teaching building. She just walked around the playground twice, and when she was about to leave, she passed by the school’s honor window.
Then, I saw my own photo.
The following line introduces the small print:
Myrna : In 20xx, I was the top scorer in the science subject of the Jef City College Entrance Examination and was admitted to the Biology Department of B University.
The wind was a little blinding, so she turned her head away.
The fallen leaves on the ground were swept up by a small whirlwind. The sky was originally sunny, but in the blink of an eye, it became dark.
Myrna raised her arms to block the wind and was about to leave when she heard someone say “Ouch” and yell, ” Teacher Wagner– ”
Myrna looked up and it was really Elton !
I remembered that when we were watching the Spring Festival Gala yesterday, he mentioned that he would come to the school today to deliver test papers to the senior high school students.
Here it comes.
” Teacher Wagner , it’s so early? It’s the first day of the new year, isn’t your family busy?”
The person who greeted him was a female teacher who was about the same age as Elton .
Myrna . She also lives in the faculty and staff community, but not in the same building as hers.
She also taught physics and was in the same teaching and research group as Elton . At that time, Elton was teaching the Tsinghua and Peking University classes, and she was teaching the regular classes.
So, Myrna never took her class, but her daughter was in the same class with her.
” Ms. Bessie .” Elton greeted with a smile, “Fortunately, the house is not too busy.”
“What? Your Myrna isn’t coming back for Christmas again this year ?”
“I’m back” just came to Elton’s mouth, but before he could say it, Winni continued –
“She is really something. After going to college in H City , she seems to have changed. She didn’t study hard and now she doesn’t even care about her parents and family.”
Elton wanted to explain: “Actually , Myrna … ”
“No need to explain, I understand. Alas, you are such a good girl, you had such good grades, why didn’t you take the right path? You are learning to take shortcuts from those unreliable girls. I can only say that the prosperity of big cities is so attractive!”
Elton’s smile faded slightly, “Who said that our Myrna doesn’t follow the right path?”
Winni Bessie smiled awkwardly. She spoke too quickly and said it right in front of the man’s father.
But what does Elton ‘s expression mean?
She didn’t say anything nonsense!
Myrna went to H City to study, and it is a fact that she never looked back!
Not only do you not want to study as a graduate student, but you also don’t lie when you drop out!
I also heard that she was hooking up with a rich man and became his lover . The rumors were so real!
There is no smoke without fire. There must be something like this for everyone to say this. Are they slandering her?
” Teacher Wagner , I understand your feelings. I sympathize with you when you encounter such a thing. After all, such an excellent daughter can become bad just like that. In the first place, you shouldn’t have let her go to B University. She should go to a local university or go to Z University in the provincial capital. It’s closer and easier to discipline her. Why did she have to go there?”
“Now the bird that was released flew away immediately. You two are unlucky … ”
Elton ‘s face had completely darkened. ” Ms. Bessie , Myrna is a very good child. No matter where you heard what you said today, please don’t say it again in the future!”
“Because it’s all nonsense! You can even say it’s slander! This is not the character a teacher should have.”
After saying that, Elton strode away, his back revealing anger!
Winni rolled her eyes. “Oh, you’ve already done it, and you don’t want people to say anything? You’re still a good kid, bullshit! You’re a shameless thing that ruins the school spirit … ”
Thinking back to that time, Elton must have been so proud.
I have a daughter who always gets first place in every subject and wins numerous awards in competitions. She is famous in her grade and even in the school.
In every summary meeting, they always mentioned Myrna , smiling with pride.
What’s the result?
So what if I got into University B?
In the end, she became a plaything of the rich!
Pooh–
Myrna hid behind the window halfway through listening. She couldn’t imagine what expression her father would have when faced with such slander and abuse. He was such an upright teacher who valued his reputation so much!
She didn’t dare to think about how sad Elton would be if he found out that she was there and heard these words.
So, she could only hide.
…
Elton handed the test paper and reference answers to the senior grade group leader and left.
Just arrived at the school gate –
“dad!”
” Myrna ? Why are you here?”
Myrna : “We were just walking around and ended up here.”
“I see … I see the weather has changed, it looks like it’s going to rain soon, don’t listen to your mother, let’s go home quickly.”
“Okay.” Myrna sat on the back of his bike.
“One, two, three–” Elton gathered his strength, pedaled twice, and the bicycle jumped out.
“Dad, I’m sorry … ”
“Hmm? What are you apologizing for?”
“I haven’t come back to see you and mom for several years … ”
You have been subjected to so much pressure and so many rumors.
Elton : “What are you talking about? I’m back ?? I’m glad I’m back.”
“I should have gone in to take a look. Your photo is still hanging in the window!”
Myrna : “Really?”
“And your competition certificate is here. Do you remember the first time you participated in a physics competition, and I asked you if you were nervous? What did you say?”
Myrna : “What did I say? I forgot.”
“You said you felt nothing.”
” … Is this true? Am I that crazy?”
“You were so arrogant in high school! You relied on your good grades to be so arrogant!”
“Oh, I’m so sorry … ”
“Hahaha!”
On the way back, it started raining as expected.
There were snow crystals mixed in the rain, which fell on my clothes and chilled me to the bone.
When she arrived at the door of her house, Myrna didn’t get much wet because of her coat.
But half of Elton’s arm was wet and he sneezed twice.
Worried that her father might catch a cold, Myrna jumped out of the back seat, immediately opened the door and rushed into the house.
Just as I took out the towel, I heard a voice talking to Elton , and the decibel level was quite high–
” … Is that really your Myrna ?! Didn’t she follow a rich man in H City ?!”
At that moment, Myrna was really angry.
Are these people ever going to finish?!
She took a deep breath, smiled widely, and walked over directly: ” Auntie , what are you farting about?”
