Teacher Ye's tragic experience confirmed one thing, and that was that the relationship between parents and teachers was far from as simple as it seemed . Although they started out the same in wanting the children to make progress, there were times when even the teachers had the urge to become hostile when they ran into unreasonable parents .
Hu Su's mother was very notorious in No . 60 High School . Her son had toiled hard in Grade One's remedial class for four years, but still continued to repeat it, and she would make trouble daily . Almost everyone in the school had heard of her, but a few of the younger teachers who had only just been posted here, and had yet to become completely familiar with the "business," were still in the dark .
Over the years, Headmaster Chen had tried all kinds of ways to have Hu Su withdraw from the school because of the problem with his mother . Hu Su wasn't an interim student, but was officially enrolled in No . 60 High School . Every year, the exams always took into account the total scores of the whole school, and every year, Hu Su's scores would drag the school down .
At this critical juncture when No . 60 High School was on the cusp of being promoted as a key city high school, Headmaster Chen really didn't want anything to go wrong .
However, there was a good saying that it was easy to invite the devil in, but hard to get rid of him . . .
No . 60 High School had personally enrolled this student Hu Su . Although his parents were somewhat unreasonable, his living and study habits weren't bad, and he was an obedient and sensible person who often helped the teachers and his classmates . . . It was just that his scores couldn't improve no matter what! Actually, urging an official student to withdraw from school purely on the basis of their poor scores wasn't reasonable . Furthermore, if word of this got out, the school might be accused of "improper education . "
As a result, all the various ploys that circled around in Headmaster Chen's mind were thus scattered .
The most painful part of the whole matter was that upon careful consideration, Hu Su's mother's words were actually quite reasonable . . . Once my child entered the school, he became an official student of your No . 60 High School, even if he's just in the remedial class . His living and study habits and his character are all very good, but his scores haven't improved at all . It's been a full four years, there hasn't been any progress at all . . . if it's not the school's fault, then whose fault is it?
This made Headmaster Chen feel indescribably miserable .
In the breakroom, Teacher Pan and the other old teachers took this opportunity to tell the new teachers all the stories about Hu Su and his mother; this bunch of younger teachers started to have deep misgivings about their jobs, when they had previously been looking forward to a career in education .
It turned out that nowadays, it wasn't just doctors who could no longer save people . . .
Neither could teachers . . .
While they were chatting, Teacher Pan abruptly realized that Old Antique had disappeared . "Eh? Where's Old Wang?"
One teacher replied, "It looks like the headmaster came looking for him just now . Old Wang also teaches the remedial class history; I heard that he's an old hand at comforting Hu Su's mother . "
Anyone who entered the workforce would feel that working wasn't easy – this was true of any profession . Apart from settling down and getting on with life, you also had to learn how to speak well and be on guard against people who could make things difficult for you .
In this world, you had to learn to compromise .
In the current era of national cultivation, many cultivators carried on with the same line of cultivation work, like Immortal Toya performing alchemy, and Fatty Luo running his metalware store and doing smithwork . The work was extremely complex, but also extremely lucrative . Most crucially, this was work which didn't depend on playing nice with other people .
After persuading Hu Su's mother to leave, Old Antique leaned his fat body against a wall and pondered for a very long time . . . Actually, his reasons for deciding to become a teacher were very complicated .
If he had to name one, it was because he thought that it was a very honorable profession .
