Chapter 1152: Chapter 887: Teacher Jia (Part 2)
Han Yi shook his head awkwardly and said, "No, the one who called me today sounded like Zhang Datou’s wife from the building next door."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan immediately realized. Who doesn’t know in their courtyard, Zhang Datou’s wife always speaks in a particularly coquettish way, as if she’s always flirting with everyone she sees. Because of this, the military wives in the courtyard dislike her. Several times, this very issue has led to misunderstandings. The military wives even accused her of seducing their husbands, went to Zhang Datou’s house to confront his wife, and both sides ended up fighting.
Lin Wan, hearing what Han Yi said, suddenly wanted to curse, "Talking all sarcastically to me, with an attitude like she can’t stand me. But to you, she speaks so coyly. What’s her intention? Trying to seduce you?"
Han Yi stayed silent on the side. Today, Teacher Jia suddenly called him, and even dialed the division line. The team didn’t even know how Teacher Jia got the number to the division’s office. Before he could react, Teacher Jia’s voice was heard, and that voice was thin and melodious, giving him goosebumps. He confirmed twice before believing it was indeed Teacher Jia herself.
Usually, it’s Xiao Wan who interacts with Teacher Jia, and he has rarely been involved, except during each tutoring session where he has been present. Saying a few polite words occasionally is normal.
He never had a deep conversation with Teacher Jia. He didn’t understand why Teacher Jia suddenly became so... "enthusiastic." Han Yi had some understanding of what was going on.
But in this situation, he didn’t want this to happen to him, causing Xiao Wan to be upset and making his family worried. Most importantly, he didn’t have any intention; in this life, having a wife and a daughter and a son would be enough for him.
Lin Wan realized the issue; she had been busy with promotions at the factory and shop, and hadn’t paid much attention to this matter. Unexpectedly, Teacher Jia had already had this thought in mind.
Thinking about this made Lin Wan angry, she glanced at Han Yi with a snort, "I just knew it, when a man is too handsome, he’s bound to attract bees and butterflies. Look, even hiring a tutor brings this kind of trouble. I don’t care, you handle this yourself. Also, next semester, we won’t ask her to tutor Xingxing anymore. What kind of people are they... Tell me the truth, did you do something recently to make her misunderstand and act like this?"
Han Yi knew Lin Wan would be angry, so he gently soothed her, "Honey, I swear on my conscience, I haven’t done anything... Whenever I come home, I’ve just greeted her a few times, that’s all. I haven’t done anything else. Since she hasn’t made anything clear, it’s not appropriate to rashly go to her. So, next semester, let’s not use her services. From now on, I’ll tutor Xingxing whenever I have time. We won’t hire tutors anymore."
We definitely can’t hire anymore, if it stirs up more trouble, it’s not worth it. "Why don’t you do like Chen Haichang and get a scar on your face? Then you won’t attract any flowers."
"Would you bear it?" A scar would mean a deep wound.
Lin Wan was just speaking in anger, to actually let him have a scar on his face, she couldn’t bear it.
But regarding Teacher Jia’s issue, it must be stifled quickly, otherwise explaining these unclear matters would be even more troublesome.
Lin Wan thought it over and finally decided to find Teacher Jia’s spouse and gently explain that Teacher Jia shouldn’t have called Han Yi at the division, and she expressed their idea of not having tutoring sessions next semester.
When Lin Wan went to see Teacher Jia’s spouse, Teacher Jia was out teaching and didn’t know. When she returned, the couple argued in the room, and eventually, it led to a fight.
Of course, Lin Wan didn’t know about this; eventually, it was Teacher Jia’s nearby neighbors who heard it and spread it around. They said Teacher Jia was forcing parents to have their children tutored just to earn more money. Her spouse couldn’t stand it and said a few words, which caused Teacher Jia to argue insistently with her husband. This was the outsiders’ view.
That day, Lin Wan’s words to Teacher Jia’s spouse were clear enough. Her spouse definitely noticed. Just recently, at home, Teacher Jia kept talking about a student’s father being so good, how the mom is never home, and the dad manages two kids alone, cooking and doing laundry, being a soldier and particularly steady, doing things meticulously.
After talking about others, she spoke about her spouse not doing the laundry, not cooking even once. Being a teacher, she seems so proud she’s lost all humility. At home, she acts like someone extraordinary.
Actually, before Lin Wan spoke to Teacher Jia’s spouse, he already had some suspicion. Now that the other wife approached them saying they wouldn’t let his wife tutor anymore, he knew something was going on.
After sending Lin Wan away angrily, Teacher Jia’s spouse waited with a stern face for Teacher Jia to return home, questioned her, and as a result, Teacher Jia didn’t realize her behavior, still loudly making comparisons between him and Han Yi. This certainly provoked him, spiraled him into a rage, and eventually, the two of them ended up fighting.
The teachers usually live in the school’s living area, which is a building similar to the tubular building. With poor soundproofing, when they argue, the whole building can hear.
