The old professor's family ate the green vegetable and egg noodles with gusto, but Lu Li ran wildly all the way out of the subway, and finally knocked on the student's door at 1:30.
The hostess with a dark face opened the door.
"Hey, Teacher Lu is here."
The tone is neither yin nor yang, very weird.
Lu Li's face turned red uncontrollably, but then she took a deep breath and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was so absorbed in the middle class that I forgot the time, but I don't want to delay our class time. I came late.
hour, the next class will be half an hour longer and end at 2:30, do you agree?"
The hostess snorted coldly and put on a sly expression:
"Teacher Lu is very good at making arrangements. If you don't have class in the afternoon, my child has to go to class in the afternoon! We originally set the time from 1 to 2 o'clock. At 2 o'clock, he will take a nap and arrive at school before 2:30...
…This is my senior year of high school, so my time is tight and I can’t make mistakes, as you know.”
Lu Li quickly said: "I know, I know. I'm really sorry. That's it. Look, parents, I delayed it because of business, and I didn't mean it. And this is the first time... otherwise, this half would be like this."
You can arrange it in an hour and tell me when to make it up, and I will make it up for him."
"No."
The parent turned around and entered the house:
"I was thinking of telling you this at the end of this week, but since things are like this today, let's just let the tutoring last until today. Forget it's late, there will be no class today, and the child can relax and think."
Lu Li:???
…
She was a little anxious - one less student would mean a loss of hundreds of dollars a week!
It's just half an hour late. Why is it like this? This parent is too harsh!
She works hard to communicate with parents:
"I know that I made a mistake today. I came half an hour late, but people always have things to do... I will also make up for this half hour. If you think half an hour is not enough, can I make up for an hour?
?Why is it so good? If you say you don’t want to do it, you won’t do it. Didn’t you say that your child’s grades improved last month?”
After thinking about it, I used the few words I had left that I had learned from Ding Wei but had only used once before to rush out a few sentences:
"As you can see, this senior year of high school is so critical! The college entrance examination will be held next year, and my family's tuition fees are not high. I can't waste my children's whole life just to save this little money!"
The parent of the student with permed and fluffy curly hair also laughed, with eyes like knives: "I regret it now! Why did I delay the future of my child to save this little money? You tell me, at such a young age, I think you are
The University of Ming Dynasty asked you to teach. The fee is not expensive, but it really can’t be said to be cheap, right? How did you teach? In the words of my son, what you taught was not as good as the previous students from the normal college.
!”
And she is becoming more and more perfunctory, either doing the questions or talking about them, and the key points are messed up... In the past two weeks, I have been reviewing under her leadership, and it is better to review by myself!
The parent wearing a long sweater with curly hair thought for a moment, and then counted out 300 yuan from his bag with a little heartache:
"I'll give you 100 more, so you don't have to look for it. Teacher Lu, please pay more attention to your health. Our family is not short of tutoring fees. I just think it's not appropriate. Maybe my children still need more professionalism."
…
The security door was slammed shut, along with the parents' harsh words: "What did you teach me?"
The soundproofing of the old house was not very good, and they did not expect that Lu Li had not left at all, but was still at the door.
So much so that at this moment she could even hear the boy she taught diligently say slowly:
"Mom, I told you to change my tutor, but you still have to say that I can't care about my studies...I told you, she has been yawning a lot lately when she teaches, and it seems like we are swapped. She is in the third year of high school.
I went to college...and I gave so many repetitive lectures that I couldn't bear it anymore..."
The boy was chattering, but he was not at all the silent person Lu Li remembered, and his words were so mean...
Lu Li's face turned red and white.
She really didn't understand how much she cared about her students. She was so serious about preparing lessons before, but why did the other party talk about her like this?
This person's character is so bad!
Moreover, she explained that the delay was due to business matters and she made up for the half hour she missed. Why did she still say she didn’t want a tutor if she didn’t want one? Why was she not tolerant at all and couldn’t understand herself?
She held back the tears of humiliation and stood at the door of the room, as if there were suction cups under her feet.
When the mother's voice came, she seemed to be a little embarrassed: "She was okay at the beginning... I thought it was because you didn't want to learn."
"Aunt Li next door also hired a student from the University of Ming Dynasty, and it cost 200 yuan an hour. Mom wanted to save some money. If I had known this, it would be better to change it earlier. My grades will drop. It's really not worth the loss...
…”
She used to laugh at Aunt Li because she didn't know how to live, and the money she spent wasn't worth it... Who knew that it wasn't worth it for her to be greedy for petty gains?
No wonder tutoring fees are cheap!
The woman touched her hair uncomfortably, and finally sighed: "Mom thought, if we hire another teacher, it might be from Ming University. They are all from the same school. If I hear Teacher Lu saying bad things about us and not teaching me well, I will still
I gave her an extra 100 yuan."
"Really..."
The woman muttered: "I will never take advantage of others again..."
After she complained, she pushed her son into the study room: "Quick, quick, go do your homework - Teacher Lu didn't assign the questions last week. Do it carefully and don't waste it..."
The boy muttered dissatisfiedly: "Look at who doesn't know the question bank..."
…
Outside the door, Lu Li burst into tears.
She covered her mouth desperately, trying not to make a sound. She was particularly helpless as she squatted there.
In this kind of unacknowledged harsh words, she understood - this is the consequence of working for others and being inferior to others. Others simply look down on themselves and cannot tolerate the slightest mistake!
She really couldn't understand. Even if the hostess was mean, this student was indeed taught by her. There was a certain relationship between teacher and student. How could she speak so unceremoniously?
This...isn't this just like a white-eyed wolf!
Don't you just think that your conditions are not good, your family is poor, and you are honest and can't talk, so you dare to bully yourself like this?
And the extra 100 yuan...
At this moment, Lu Li, who was heartbroken, really wanted to throw the 100 yuan in front of them and say that she would not do such a thing.
But……
But without this student, I won’t be able to get more than 800 yuan a week...
She firmly grasped the 300-yuan note into her palm and swore bitterly in her heart:
One day, she will make these people who look down on her regret it!
