Sheng Chuxi helped up the little girl who fell to the ground.
After confirming that she was not hurt, she straightened up to look at LAN Jiaxin and said faintly, "teacher LAN, you are an adult anyway. It is too much to do with such a small child?"
LAN Jiaxin sneered.
"Too much? This is my new nail. It cost a lot of money! She broke it for me. I can't afford to pay for it. I'll give her a push to relieve her anger. What's the matter? The bear child just needs a good lesson!"
Sheng Chuxi's expression was still faint.
"Just now everyone saw that the little sister was standing quietly and did nothing. She certainly didn't break your nails. Maybe she accidentally caught the clothes and broke them. I think you should apologize to the little sister for your indiscriminate behavior."
"Why, Chu Xi, are you teaching me a lesson now?" LAN Jiaxin became more and more excited, and his voice was sharp. "But just a newcomer, he dared to teach his elders a lesson!"
Sheng Chuxi: "teacher LAN, I didn't want to teach you a lesson. I just told the truth. Our crew came here to do good deeds for the public and to help people in trouble here. But what about you? What have you done? Look at the children around you. Do you still think you are right?"
LAN Jia looked around.
It was then discovered that all the children around looked at her with frightened and frightened eyes, and they were obviously frightened by what had just happened.
Sheng Chuxi: "I apologize to my little sister."
"If I don't apologize, what can you do to me?"
LAN Jiaxin raised her chin high, glanced at Sheng Chu Xi scornfully, then turned and left.
After she walked away, there was a sound of discussion around her.
"Who is this? Such a young child can do it!"
"It's obviously not the little sister's fault. She broke her nails and had to vent on others' heads!"
Sheng Chuxi looks down at the little girl.
Her eyes were red and she looked at a loss.
Sheng Chuxi squatted down, looked into the little girl's eyes and said softly, "little sister, you didn't do anything wrong. It was the sister who did the wrong thing just now. So, you don't have to feel afraid and sad, you know?"
The little girl slowly recovered.
"Thank you, sister."
Sheng Chuxi rubbed her head with a smile.
Then, I caught a glimpse of a familiar little figure standing at the back door of the classroom.
Sheng Chu was stunned.
"Er Ya?"
Seeing her, Erya ran away in a panic again.
Sheng Chu Xi frowned and asked the little girl.
"Little sister, do you know Erya? Do you know why Erya didn't come to class today?"
The little girl blinked.
"Sister Erya hasn't been here for a long time. I heard that her mother stopped her from studying."
In Sheng Chuxi's mind, the murmuring voice of Erya, who was full of envy last night, suddenly rang back.
"It's good... It's good to read..."
......
When Sheng Chuxi returned to the village, neither the peasant woman nor Erya was at home.
She asked the village head where the villagers were farming. After two rounds of searching, she finally saw Erya.
Erya, wearing the ragged short sleeves of yesterday, is bending over and digging the soil with a hoe. The hoe was for adults. It was taller than her, making her even thinner.
And the eyes looked very red, as if they had just cried.
