Chapter 7 Your Mom Delivers Takeout
The nurse interrupted Tan Zhengchu: "Are you the father of those six children? They left a student ID here; take it back with them."
A student ID was handed to Tan Zhengchu.
Tan Zhengchu looked down at his student ID, his brows furrowed.
The student ID card says Pengcheng Primary School, Class 1, and the photo is of Da Bao, but the name is Su Xiaoxiao.
Tan Zhengchu thought to himself: Strange, isn't Da Bao's name Su Mimi? Why does it say Su Xiaoxiao here?
Tan Zhengchu was filled with countless questions: Just how many secrets was Su Yingxue hiding?
He decided he had to get to the bottom of things and couldn't let her keep him in the dark any longer.
Tan Zhengchu gripped his student ID card tightly, then turned and left the ward.
Meanwhile, Su Yingxue was hurrying home with the children, unaware that Tan Zhengchu had already discovered the secret of the student IDs.
Along the way, the children chattered excitedly about the fun things at the amusement park.
Su Yingxue, however, was absent-minded; she had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
After returning home and settling the children in, Su Yingxue's unease grew stronger.
……
In a spacious and bright classroom at Pengcheng Primary School, seven children are sitting facing each other around a large table.
The classmate said with admiration, "Su Xiaoxiao, you're amazing! You got first place in the grade again. Let me see your test paper. I got so many questions wrong, but you got them all right."
Sanbao raised his little head proudly and said, "My brother is the best."
Erbao waved his hand modestly and said seriously, "Yueyue, don't say that. Sixth Brother is the most amazing. I still need to learn a lot more to catch up with him."
One classmate, looking suspicious, said in a sarcastic tone, "Su Xiaoxiao, you must have cheated on the exam, right? My mom hired the best tutor for me, and I still didn't get everything right. How could someone who doesn't even go to tutoring classes possibly get everything right!"
Another student raised his chin dismissively and said scornfully, "Of course. Su Xiaoxiao's mother is a food deliveryman. My mom said that they eat leftovers that other people don't want. Where would they get the money to tutor them?"
Upon hearing this, Erbao glared angrily and shouted, "Zhang Zifu, who told you that my family eats leftover takeout that other people don't want?"
Zhang Zifu crossed his arms and said arrogantly, "What's the difference between your mother delivering food and a garbage collector? Aren't they both dirty, smelly, and poor, just like rats in the sewers! Su Xiaoxiao, you and your brother are rats. Rats want to get first place, what is that if not cheating?"
Sanbao was so angry that his face turned red and his eyes blazed with fire. He retorted loudly, "My mommy delivers food, but she raised us without stealing or robbing. What right do you have to say that about us?" With that, he shoved Zhang Zifu to the ground.
Zhang Zifu plopped down on the ground and burst into tears, wailing, "Su Yueyue, you stinking poor man, how dare you push me! Do you know how much these pants I'm wearing cost? Your mom couldn't afford them even if she delivered takeout for a month!"
Just then, the teacher rushed in, quickly helped Zhang Zifu up, and asked with a frown, "What happened?"
Zhang Zifu, the villain, falsely accused someone, crying and saying, "Teacher, Su Yueyue hit someone."
Sanbao straightened his chest and said without fear, "Zhang Zifu insulted my mother first. He also said my brother cheated and that our family was like rats!"
With a determined look in her eyes and a solemn tone, Erbao said, "Teacher, I didn't cheat, and we're not mice. My mommy is great, and we all love her..."
The teacher, with a stern face, said harshly, "Su Xiaoxiao, your younger brother violated school rules by hitting someone in class. As his older brother, you not only didn't stop him but also joined him in targeting the classmate. Now, the teacher is going to cancel your exam score. The first place in this exam belongs to Zhang Zifu!"
Erbao's eyes widened, his face full of indignation, and he shouted, "Teacher, why? Zhang Zifu's total score is ten points less than mine!"
The teacher curled her lip and said disdainfully, "Zhang Zifu is an excellent student in both character and academics, and his parents donated two million to the school! What could your mother donate to the school? A takeout meal with no delivery fee?"
Just then, the school principal led Tan Zhengchu into the classroom.
The director, with a respectful expression, said cautiously, "Mr. Tan, this is the student you're looking for, Su Xiaoxiao. This is her twin brother, Su Yueyue. They also have an older brother, Su Mimi, who looks exactly like her, in another class in the same grade..."
Erbao and Sanbao turned around at the same time and saw Tan Zhengchu. They quickly nodded to him.
Looking at the two children, Tan Zhengchu felt a complex mix of emotions.
His gaze fell on Erbao, who looked remarkably like Dabao.
He looked at Sanbao again, his eyes filled with doubt.
Tan Zhengchu wondered: What is the relationship between these two children and me? Why do they look so much like Da Bao? Has Su Yingxue really been lying to me all along?
When Sanbao saw Tan Zhengchu, his eyes lit up, and he quickly tugged at Erbao's sleeve, saying, "Brother, it's Daddy!"
Erbao frowned, lowered his voice, and said with a hint of stubbornness, "You're not allowed to call him Daddy. He's not good to Mommy, and he even wants to separate Dabao from us. We can't acknowledge him!"
The teacher said to the headmaster with a serious expression, "Headmaster, you've come at the right time. The brothers Su Xiaoxiao and Su Yueyue bullied their classmates and even hit someone in public. I suggest that their grades be canceled and they be punished by doing cleaning for a week!"
Sanbao was so angry that his face turned red. He shouted, "It was I who hit him, not my brother! How dare you cancel his grades!"
The teacher, with a stern face, said harshly, "Su Yueyue, how can you talk to a teacher like that? Director, did you see that? They're awful! They bullied Zhang Zifu until he cried. Zhang Zifu's parents just donated two million to the school. If they find out their child is being bullied like this at school..."
The director frowned slightly and said earnestly, "Su Xiaoxiao, although you always get first place in every exam, nowadays we emphasize morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor. It's not enough to just have good grades but poor character. I think this time we can't just cancel your grades. We should also call your mother and ask her to apologize to Zhang Zifu's parents!"
Zhang Zifu raised his chin and said smugly, "They must kneel down and apologize."
The teacher chimed in, "Yes, kneeling down to apologize shows more sincerity."
Tan Zhengchu strode forward and stood resolutely in front of Erbao and Sanbao.
He shouted angrily, "Kneel? Director Zhang, is this the kind of school discipline you have at your primary school? Making students kneel down at the drop of a hat?"
The director stared at Tan Zhengchu, thinking to himself: The principal told him to treat this man well, but didn't say who he was.
However, no matter what this man's status is, he is not as high as Zhang Zifu's parents, who are managers in the Tan Group.
The director said somewhat awkwardly, "Sir, this is a matter for our school. As an outsider, you shouldn't interfere. Teacher Zhang, call Su Xiaoxiao's mother and ask her to come to the school."
