Rebirth of a Portable Space: Transforming My Hometown

Chapter 38 Please start your performance

"Huh? Isn't this Tingting?" Zhou Lei looked at the pitiful little girl lying on the ground and seemed somewhat familiar.

"Hey? Isn't this Mr. Li Aiguo's eldest daughter, who just came to the school?"

The speaker was Zhou Lei's wife, Zhu Fang, who had just run over. She was also a well-known socialite at Longyuan Town Middle School. She knew who Yufei was the moment she saw her.

I just didn't expect her to show up at Teacher Chen's house, and in such a pose, hmm? She... seems to have discovered something incredible.

"What is this?" Aunt Zhu, naturally curious, asked Yufei.

"Oh! This is..." Chen Xianggui looked at Yufei on the ground with a suspicious expression. She was sitting on the sofa wailing, how did she end up in front of them like this?

With a bad feeling, Chen Xianggui decided to take the initiative and tell them that she had accidentally fallen. Just as she was about to help her up and comfort her, they appeared.

But before she could even begin to explain, a timid and weak voice clearly reached their ears.

"It's not Aunt Chen's fault, it's all my fault. I didn't have time to dodge when she pushed me, so I fell. Feifei, it's okay."

After saying that, Yufei gave them a smile that said, "Yufei is in pain, but Yufei won't cry; Yufei is very strong."

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Zhu gave Teacher Chen a strange look, thinking to herself that this teacher was usually quite gentle, so it was probably an accident.

A little bewildered by Yufei's actions, Chen Xianggui instinctively explained, "No! I didn't push her, she just inexplicably fell down..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yufei interrupted her again, continuing in a tearful voice.

"Aunt Chen~ I know you didn't mean it. It's all Feifei's fault. She's been going to my cousin's place too often, so everyone in Tingting's class is only looking after me and neglecting Tingting, making her feel wronged."

"I understand you're angry, it's not your fault," Yufei said, her eyes filled with tears. She looked like a delicate, fragile little flower, practically with a white handkerchief in her mouth.

As the incident escalated, Chen Xianggui's house became surrounded by people.

Pointing and whispering, those strange looks cut like a knife to Chen Xianggui's heart.

Her previously perfect smile froze, and she quickly picked up Yufei, forcing a stiff smile.

"This is just kids playing around."

Yufei whispered in Chen Xianggui's ear, "Aunt Chen, you see~ do people believe what I, as a child, say, or what you say?"

After finishing her story, Yufei resumed her performance, bursting into tears again and struggling to get out of Chen Xianggui's arms as she cried.

She cried, "Aunt Chen, Feifei is being good. Feifei is scared. Don't pinch me. Feifei fell down on her own, you didn't make her fall."

Aunt Zhu realized something was wrong and quickly snatched Yufei from Teacher Chen's hands.

He lifted Yufei's sleeve and saw that her fair arms were already bright red, with some areas even turning blue.

"It's obvious someone pinched him," Aunt Zhu said disapprovingly, looking at Chen Xianggui.

"Teacher Chen! How could you do this to a teacher! She's only four years old! You're a parent too. If your Tingting were pinched like this, wouldn't you go crazy?"

"I already said it wasn't me!" Chen Xianggui explained weakly.

Someone nearby couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Teacher Chen, are you trying to say that Yufei pinched herself? You believe that? You're quite adept at shirking responsibility."

"You!" Chen Xianggui looked at the crowd to see who had confronted her, but found a large number of onlookers, all indignantly criticizing Teacher Chen.

A figure suddenly rushed out from the crowd, and before Chen Xianggui could react, a slap landed on her face.

She was so dazed by the slap that her head was spinning.

"Mom~!"

Yufei, who was still performing as the little white flower, realized that her mother had returned. She could no longer hold back her tears and burst into a loud cry, wanting her mother to hug her.

Liu Meili, holding her daughter, felt heartbroken looking at her reddened arm. She glared fiercely at Chen Xianggui and gritted her teeth.

"Teacher Chen, right? This isn't over yet! You just wait!"

After saying that, he carried Yufei home and comforted her. Once Yufei calmed down, he began to ask her what had happened.

Yufei told her mother everything that had happened, but she didn't mention the real story of Chen Xianggui threatening her with a knife. Instead, she embellished the story of how Chen Xianggui had pretended to be innocent and told her mother about it.

This was also based on Yufei's consideration. Who would think that an adult would threaten a child with a knife? No one would believe it, and she had no evidence!

Furthermore, Jin Tingting's father was her junior high school teacher in her past life, and he was a very nice person. Yufei didn't want the mother and daughter to affect Teacher Jin.

I hope Aunt Chen and Jin Tingting will learn a lesson from this incident. If they provoke her again, she won't be so polite!

Liu Meili yelled at Chen Xianggui, "Are you crazy?! It's a children's matter. Even if Yufei really bullied Tingting, it should be handled by adults, not children! What's the point of involving kids?"

Originally, her anger subsided because Yufei said her crying was fake, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

After Yufei's mother finished cooking, the two of them were eating when she took two bites and suddenly stood up from her chair.

She was still muttering, "No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. Yufei, stay home obediently. Your mother will be right back!"

After saying that, he took the key and left. Yufei also went back to her space to brew wine, but it was plum wine.

It's not peach blossom season now, but it's the perfect time to brew plum wine.

When she emerged from the space, Liu Meili strode back like a victorious rooster, her chest puffed out in triumph.

"Daughter, your mother has taken care of things, so don't worry."

After saying that, he glanced at Yufei with a look that suggested he should ask me quickly.

Who is Yufei? She'll definitely satisfy her mother's overflowing desire to share!

With a curious look, she asked, "Mommy, what happened? Tell Feifei, Feifei wants to hear it."

Then Yufei's mother started talking non-stop, of course adding exaggerated words about wanting Yufei to admire her.

It turned out that Yufei's mother was getting angrier and angrier and went out to confront Chen Xianggui, but then she thought about Yufei's description and realized that Chen Xianggui wasn't so easy to talk to.

So she thought about it and decided to go find Chen Guixiang's husband—Principal Jin.

She wanted to ask Principal Jin to judge the matter and see if he sided with his wife or was fair and impartial.

When Liu Meili arrived, two other principals, Principal Lü of the Primary School and Principal Xu of the Joint Department, were also having tea in Principal Jin's office.

Liu Meili, all fierce and aggressive, went inside and said she wanted Jin Xiao to be the judge.

Because Chen Xianggui hadn't had a chance to tell her husband about what happened today before Yufei's mother beat her to it, Principal Jin was unaware of the major event that had occurred at home.

Yufei's mother recounted what had happened that day, and the three principals listened with grave expressions.

Principal Jin looked apologetic, explaining that Chen Xianggui had evening self-study today, and Yufei would likely be asleep by the time she finished. Therefore, he would accompany Chen Xianggui to apologize tomorrow.

At the same time, it is also necessary to investigate whether Yufei bullied Jin Tingting. If Yufei did not bully Jin Tingting...

That means Jin Tingting lied. Jin Tingting should apologize to Yufei in public. Her parents should strictly supervise and educate her, and promise that she will not do such a thing again, otherwise she will be disciplined.

If Yufei bullied Jin Tingting, Yufei should apologize to Jin Tingting in public, and her parents should strictly supervise and educate her. The same applies to other situations.

Yufei's mother said that Chen Xianggui and her daughter were unreasonable, while her husband was quite reasonable.

But let's see how they behave in the future if they truly understand the situation!
