"Teacher Jia, right? You blocked our car early in the morning and hit my sister. Is it because we wouldn’t let you tutor her, and you feel unhappy?" At this ti, Lin Yuan also got out of the car, ran over, gave Teacher Jia a shove, and said, "You’re really too much as a teacher. We don’t enroll the child in your classes, and we have to see your face? First, you talked to my sister. My sister decided not to enroll the child and made it clear to you. You couldn’t stand losing out on those few hundred bucks, so you called my brother-in-law, and spent more than ten minutes on the phone blaming my sister. You also complained about my niece’s grades, like without you she’d be lost. I wonder, my niece has been one of the top in the entire grade while she was in your classes. How’s that bad? Let everyone judge whether Teacher Jia is being excessive in this matter."
"Yeah, what’s the deal? If we enroll in your classes, do we have to stick with you forever? If we don’t want to sign up, you pull a stunt like this. After this, who would dare enroll? We told you yesterday we wouldn’t sign up anymore. Are you going to treat us like you did Sister-in-law Lin if we don’t continue tomorrow?"
"Look at the tutor you hired! Next ti, be careful. When looking for a tutor, you should not only consider their skill level but also their character. Isn’t this annoying? Hiring a tutor and causing trouble like this."
"Exactly, didn’t it also lead to a fight? What’s going on here, acting so brazenly in our compound? If she has a job, we should complain to the school about her."
"Sister-in-law Lin, why don’t we go find her supervisor together?" So people who couldn’t bear to watch ca over to show concern.
"Yes, let’s go talk to her supervisor." How can we let an outsider bully soone from our compound?
Lin Wan looked around at the growing crowd, most of whom were standing by her side. Lin Wan smiled to herself. Her cousin joined in, encouraging everyone to go to her supervisor.
Teacher Jia was anxious, with so many people criticizing her alone. She had to defend herself, "She hit too. I slapped her once, and she slapped twice. Plus, her brother secretly went to find my husband, shaless!"
"You hit , and I didn’t hit back? Unbelievable. It’s nothing to slap you twice. Do you not know why I went to your husband? Everyone, hear out: We hired her to tutor our child. We didn’t want the child to be overwheld during the sumr, as we already had other plans, including a trip to her uncle’s place. But when she heard about the sumr break, she talked about how my daughter’s grades were poor, but I refused to comply. She was unwilling and called my husband at his office, and all she did was complain about . I was angry about it. She was relentless, and complained to my husband with the intent of causing us to argue. I thought there must have been so misunderstanding, so I wanted to personally visit her to clear things up. Who knew she wasn’t ho, but her husband was, so I talked to him about it. Afterward, they ended up arguing with each other. She blad it on and accused of seducing her husband." Lin Wan laughed twice, "Is your husband better than mine in any way? Do I need to seduce him? Is he more handso than mine, or does he earn more? I’d be out of my mind to seduce your husband."
"This teacher is really sothing. Whether people want tutoring is their own choice. It’s not like money grows on trees. You tutor once and stick to it. Speaking ill of others just because they stop hiring you? Who’d dare hire soone like that? And you accuse others of seducing your husband? Looks like you’re the one doing that.""
A random sister-in-law in the crowd spoke up, and her cousin quickly chid in, "Exactly, I think when she called my brother-in-law the other day, she was trying to seduce him. How can soone like that be qualified to teach children? I wouldn’t dare hire her."
Seeing the support, Lin Wan’s deanor quickly hardened, and she deliberately acted furious, grabbing her hair and kicking her, "I tolerated you for so many days. If you hadn’t gone too far today, I wouldn’t have acted. It’s not that I am unreasonable and hit you. If soone bullies us, and we don’t fight back, that would make us cowards."
Lin Wan continued to fight with her while speaking. Lin Yuan watched for a mont and then deliberately started to pull them apart, advising her to calm down, but secretly pinching her several tis. Many of those supposedly breaking up the fight had issues with Teacher Jia, saying they were breaking it up, but in reality, many were like Lin Yuan.
In the end, Teacher Jia’s hair was a bit ssy, and there were two slap marks on her face, but Lin Wan’s slaps were light, so it wasn’t too noticeable after a while. But internally, there were still unpleasant feelings about the bruises.
Teacher Jia was beaten and left it at that. When Lin Wan left, she even said she would go find her supervisor. So sister-in-laws also said they would go with her. That scared Teacher Jia. Since she was currently on suspended duty with pay, she barely made ends et. If her supervisors found out she caused trouble with people in the compound, she would certainly face severe punishnt. At that point, whether she could keep her position would be uncertain.
Teacher Jia could only swallow her anger and walked away with her head hung low. But this matter had blown up so much; it wasn’t likely to end here. Lin Wan wasn’t in the mood to deal with it at the mont, though. She left, her face burning with pain, and went back to Brother Junzi’s place.
"She hits pretty hard. I just don’t have as much strength as her. Although I slapped her twice, the marks on her face disappeared soon, unlike mine, which is still red." Lin Wan told the situation as she rolled an egg on her face when she and her cousin arrived at Brother Junzi’s house.
"At the beginning, you should have let get down there too. I wouldn’t have given her a chance to strike." Lin Yuan said.
"I did it on purpose, I just didn’t expect her to hit so hard."
"You can’t let this go, she’s strong-willed, you have to be even stronger. We can’t let people bully us. This matter needs to be dealt with seriously." Junzi thought they should properly deal with this woman.
Lin Wan knew that Han Yi would definitely find out about this and handle it when the ti ca.
Her cousin checked on her sister-in-law, and with only just over a month, judging by the reaction, it was likely a boy. Her current weakness seed to be due to not eating properly these past few days. Lin Yuan suggested eating small and frequent als, focusing on foods she liked. If she threw up, she should continue eating; gradually, it would improve.
Junzi was reassured by this, though he wasn’t much of a cook himself. Now that Tao Jia couldn’t handle anything, he didn’t know how to take care of her properly.
Lin Wan chuckled, "Why don’t we let Godmother take care of Sister-in-law?"
"That’s a good idea. I’ll call Mom in a bit." Junzi thought this was a decent plan.
Tao Jia waved her hand and said, "Mom is helping Uncle run the store right now, where does she have ti to co over? Besides, she hasn’t been apart from Dad much, asking her to co for such a long ti, Dad would definitely have opinions."
Junzi felt troubled when he heard this, "That’s true, Mom and Dad haven’t been apart much."
Lin Wan also knew, them having lived together for most of their lives, suddenly separating them doesn’t quite fit.
However, Brother Junzi said to let this matter slide and if it doesn’t work, he’ll learn to cook himself.
When Lin Wan heard this, she was a bit amused. Her godmother had said that Brother Junzi, at over thirty, had never cooked once. If he wanted to learn to cook, she was indeed curious.
At noon, Junzi didn’t let the two leave but asked them to help guide him in making a few simple dishes.
Tao Jia said she wanted dumplings. Luckily, they had at and vegetables at ho, so Lin Wan asked Brother Junzi to make so chive and at dumpling filling. He did a decent job chopping the filling, seasoning was fine too, but when wrapping them, he was clumsy; either too much filling or too little, never pinching them properly. The result was when he cooked them, they all fell apart.
Nonetheless, Tao Jia ate quite a lot today, which got Brother Junzi motivated. He said he wouldn’t go to training today and would ask Tao Jia what she wanted for dinner, and he would personally make it for her.
Without them around, Lin Wan had no idea what kind of al Brother Junzi would make. After Lin Wan and her cousin sister returned from Brother Junzi’s place, it was already past two.
Originally at this hour, her husband should have gone to training, and their child should be at school. But as soon as she opened the door, she saw Han Yi sitting in the living room with a cold expression.
Lin Wan was taken aback, thinking that today’s event had been known by the higher-ups and that Han Yi had been criticized.
"Ai Yi, is this really serious? But it was her who started it."
"Co here," Lin Wan said, and Han Yi still had no expression, maintaining a cold face as he called. Lin Wan thought the matter was quite serious; otherwise, Han Yi wouldn’t be so angry.
Lin Wan quickly went over, sat beside him, and was about to apologize, but Han Yi directly lifted her chin to look closely, finally pointing at the still-red half of her face, "I heard you hit her too?"
Lin Wan hurriedly nodded, let out a noise, "She hit first, I couldn’t just let her hit for nothing. Anyway, what did the higher-ups say?"
"The higher-ups didn’t say anything, but I saw Teacher Jia today. She complained to , saying you slapped her twice."
Lin Wan heard it wasn’t the higher-ups shouting at Han Yi, but rather, Teacher Jia complained to Han Yi, and imdiately got upset, let out a hum, "You’re not trying to make trouble for on her behalf, are you?"
"Humph, seems you’re quite domineering at ho, but why do you get timid in front of others? You’re really foolish, how did you let her hit you, also, your strength is too weak, I couldn’t see any marks on her face, but look at yours, it’s been so long, and you’re still like this."
Lin Wan was a bit bewildered by Han Yi’s sudden string of words. She couldn’t imdiately grasp Han Yi’s aning.
Then, Han Yi continued, "Starting tomorrow, follow to run and do pull-ups."
"Ah...why?" It’s been so many years, never once had Han Yi asked her to train with him daily.
"To build up strength, so you won’t lose out so easily next ti."
