Little One Tears the Villain’s Script

Jiang Yue (6)

The principal had noticed this little girl for a while. After observing her for a few days, he became more certain that there was something wrong. So, he caught her red-handed today.

Jiang Yue was so frightened that her face was pale, and she couldn’t say a word. She could only stare blankly at the principal and let him take her to the teacher’s office.

“Tell me, what are you doing here?” The principal was stern and fierce.

“I… I just came to wait for my big brother to finish class.”

“What’s your big brother’s name?”

“…” Jiang Yue couldn’t answer.

She was still too young to fool anyone with her clumsy acting. What’s more, the teachers were all locals. Where there was a child going to school, what their name was, who their family members were, they basically knew everything.

The principal took a look at her self-made schoolbag, touched it, and found a workbook that she made herself. His face immediately turned gloomy.

If this was a student from his school, he would be very happy, but unfortunately she was not.

If everyone studied by eavesdropping like her and became self-taught, then what was the school made for?

If everyone wanted to take advantage illegally, who would support the school and the teachers?

If this precedent was set and everyone followed her in the future, would anyone still be willing to pay tuition?

The principal said coldly, “I see that this is your first offense, so I won’t hold you accountable. But if you dare to come again in the future, I will tell the village chief and let him teach you a lesson and drive you all out of the village.”

The principal was just trying to scare her, but something like this did happen before. Once someone could no longer be tolerated in the village, they would have to leave their hometown and who knew where else they could go. But this was something from the past, and now they were a little more disciplined. They no longer depended solely on the village chief’s decision, but it was enough to scare a child.

Jiang Yue’s face instantly turned pale and she cried.

“Principal, I know I’m wrong. I won’t come again in the future. Don’t tell the village chief, don’t tell my mother, I really know I’m wrong, wuu wuu wuu…”

She cried so miserably; she didn’t expect this to turn so serious. What should she do if her mother and brother were implicated?

The principal sighed and said, “I don’t mean to make things hard for you. I think your writing is good. If you can pay for the lessons, I can take you in. But every place has its own rules. If you want to go to school, you have to follow the rules…”

But she only did this because she couldn’t afford the tuition.

Jiang Yue cried and nodded. She didn’t say anything and just apologized, and then walked out of the office.

She guessed that she would never be able to come to this place again.

If she committed another crime, the principal would never let her go.

At first, Jiang Yue didn’t know what use going to school had, nor did she find it any fun. But now, she probably had some vague thoughts and hope.

Anyways, it was much more fun than staying at home and poking ant nests.

But now, she had lost this opportunity.

Jiang Yue returned home and cried a lot, as if she had lost something important. But she didn’t dare to tell her mother, because she knew that life at home was difficult.

She could only bear it.

It’s just that on the third day that Jiang Yue didn’t go to school, Jiang Xiumei brought back a person – the school’s live-in teacher, the one who wore glasses and looked very gentle. If she remembered correctly, his surname was Tang.

“Tang… Teacher Tang?” Jiang Yue was stunned. Her first reaction was that the secret that she had gone to school to eavesdrop had been exposed. And now, the teacher came to her house to settle accounts.

Her little face was snow-white. She cried out “wuu”, and immediately said, “Teacher, what happened doesn’t have anything to do with my mother and my brother, they don’t know anything. If you want to exile someone, just exile me.”

Jiang Xiumei glared at her, “What nonsense are you talking about? Why aren’t you pouring a glass of water for the teacher?”

It didn’t look like her mother was angry.

Jiang Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. While sobbing, she poured a glass of water for Teacher Tang.

Teacher Tang smiled very gently, and it didn’t look like he came to settle accounts. But as soon as he sat down, what he said made Jiang Yue feel cold.

Teacher Tang said, “I see that this child has not been to school for several days, is there something wrong?”

Jiang Yue didn’t dare to speak. She just clutched her sleeves, her hands and feet going cold.

Jiang Xiumei said oddly, “Teacher Tang, we don’t have any children going to school in our house.”

This time, it was Teacher Tang’s turn to be surprised. He looked at Jiang Yue with a touch of curiosity in his eyes.

It turned out that when she went to eavesdrop on the class, it was not at the behest of the adults in her family, but by her own initiative.

He had noticed her for a while. At first, he thought that she was just here to play, so he just let her be, thinking that she would leave soon. He didn’t expect that she would persist for so long. This made Teacher Tang really touched.

Teacher Tang said, “So you didn’t know. I’m going to tell you what happened, don’t scare the child.”

Jiang Xiumei’s look also became serious. She secretly wiped her hands on her clothes, her palms starting to sweat.

“Yes, Teacher Tang, please say it.”

Jiang Yue was already crying wuu wuu wuu.

She was really scared, so without waiting for Teacher Tang to say anything, she said it all by herself.

“I’m sorry, Mom, I secretly went to the school to listen to class without telling you. When the principal found out, he sent me back. Wuu wuu wuu, Mom, I’m sorry. The principal said that we will be driven away. I did this, so I will suffer the consequences alone. I will go to the village chief and turn myself in. Wuu wuu wuu…”

She was crying really miserably and looked really pitiful.

Jiang Xiumei was stunned, unable to recover for a long time. Her scalp became numb from what Jiang Yue said.
