Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 318

Boss Zhong had a meal at his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house, found out what his wife had asked him to do, and then helped his father-in-law chop firewood and fetch water before returning home.

"Was it a heavy blow?"

Li Guihua asked with a distressed look on her face. She had seen Li Yang before. Last time, when her child had his birthday, many classmates were invited to eat cake, and Li Yang was among them.

Boss Zhong had no idea how severe the beating was, he just heard it from his mother-in-law.

He shook his head honestly, "I don't know."

Li Guihua rolled her eyes at him and continued to ask, "Why is the private school suddenly not having classes today?"

Shitou suddenly ran in from outside, leaned on his father and asked, "Dad, have you gone to see Li Yang?"

"No, I went to your grandparents' house for dinner."

"Ah." Shitou was so disappointed that he turned around and hugged his mother again, "Mom, I want to go see Li Yang. He was beaten by the teacher yesterday."

Li Guihua did not learn what happened from her husband, but she heard most of it from her son.

It turned out that after Li Yang talked back to the teacher yesterday, he was hit on the palm of his hand twice with a ruler, but he was still not satisfied, so he made him take off his pants in public and lie on the ground, and he wanted to spank his butt hard with the ruler.

Pain is one thing, but spanking after taking off pants is another, which is quite an insult to one's self-esteem.

Especially when he was surrounded by classmates and friends of the same age as him, this was simply like throwing his face on the ground and stepping on it.

Li Yang was so scared that he started crying. Zhuang Yuan, who had been arguing with him, was also stunned by this sudden situation and stood there in a daze, not daring to make a sound.

The teacher originally wanted to ask two students to help him hold the man down, but after looking around, everyone was so scared that they dared not move, so he had to do it himself.

He walked up to Li Yang, pushed him to the ground, and forcefully pulled his pants down. He then picked up the ruler, which was two fingers thick and three fingers wide, and started hitting Li Yang's buttocks and lower back.

Several frightened students rushed over to stop it but were pushed away.

"...Sir! Sir, Li Yang and Zhuang Yuan were just joking around, they didn't steal anything, please stop fighting!"

"Zhuang Yuan, please say something! Why are you standing there like an idiot?"

Zhuang Yuan, who was frightened and looked pale, stepped forward hesitantly, but didn't know what to say. He was not sure whether Li Yang had stolen his paper.

How could Li Yang, whose family is not well off, afford it?

But they couldn't just watch him being beaten by the teacher like this. The half of Li Yang's buttocks that were exposed had been beaten red, and he was crying breathlessly.

Li Zhi hugged Master's waist tightly from behind, crying and saying, "My brother really didn't steal it! Wenchuan gave it to him!"

Wenchuan, Zhong Wenchuan, also known as Shitou, also held one of the Master's legs and explained to him that he bought the paper and gave it to Li Yang.

But in the teacher's eyes, you students don't take me seriously at all. You didn't visit him to give gifts during the New Year, and now you dare to disobey him!

Fortunately, someone was smart enough to run to find Master Zhou and tell him what had happened.

Li Guihua frowned and said angrily, "I think not only your teacher is confused, but your classmate Zhuang Yuan is also a troublemaker! What evidence does he have to prove that the paper is his? He is wrongly accusing people with nothing!"

Shitou pursed his lips and said, "Li Yang is so pitiful. I gave him the paper. The teacher has also checked it out. Zhuang Yuan's paper was left at home and he didn't bring it here at all. That paper is Li Yang's. Zhuang Yuan made a mistake!"

Master Xiao Zhou came over to stop Master Da Zhou from beating Li Yang, but Master Da Zhou became even angrier when he saw Master Xiao Zhou.

"Who do you think you are? You want to get involved in my affairs? Do you really think you are so important?"

"...Calm down first, don't say anything, and put down the ruler in your hand." Master Zhou stepped forward and tried to take the ruler from his hand, but was dodged.

Seeing this, Master Zhou's usual calm demeanor seemed to be unable to be maintained, and he almost rolled his eyes, but he knew that doing so would only add fuel to the fire, so he could only let Master Zhou point at his nose and scold him.

After the scolding, the matter is not over yet.

Master Zhou pulled the frightened Zhuang Yuan over and asked him if he was sure that the paper was taken by Li Yang. If it was found that Li Yang did not take it, then he must apologize to Li Yang.

Just now when the student came to call him, he quickly told him everything that had happened here. After listening to him, he knew that Master Zhou was taking advantage of the situation to make a fuss.

Regardless of whether the paper was taken or not, you should not hit the student like this. If he really took it, just ask him to return the paper and apologize, but the premise is that he really took it, not that you think he took it.

There should be evidence for everything. If you judge whether a person is right or wrong based on your own imagination, then things will get messy.

Naturally, this matter was taken over by Master Zhou Xiao. Master Zhou Da was too emotional, arbitrary, and only believed in his own judgment, so he could not find any results.

Li Yang and Zhuang Yuan were called over and questioned one by one, and Shi Tou, who delivered paper to Li Yang, was also called over.

After the questioning, the two people each insisted on their own opinions. One said that the paper was given by Shi Tou, and the other said that your family is so poor how can you afford it? You never use it on weekdays, so why do you use mine when you don’t see you?

Mr. Zhou had a headache from the noise and looked stern.

"You said that Li Yang stole your things. Did you see it or did Li Yang tell you himself?"

Zhuang Yuan's eyes widened slowly. "Sir, are you trying to defend him? Everyone knows that Li Yang lives in a thatched cottage and can't even afford a salary! How can he afford such good paper?"

As if he had figured something out, he shouted loudly, "Are you holding a grudge against me for only giving gifts to Master Da Zhou during the New Year and not giving you any?"

Those words were disheartening. Although Master Zhou did not teach their class, the two masters would swap classes for a few days a month.

He asked himself honestly that he treated both classes equally and he didn't care at all about giving gifts or not.

"Call your parents! I want to ask them how they taught you!"

Master Zhou was very angry and asked Zhuang Yuan to go back and call his parents immediately.

Zhuang Wenhua was sweating when he arrived. On the way here, he had heard his son's story. He was so angry that he beat his son:

"You didn't see him steal it yourself, so how can you say he stole it just because you saw someone else had it? Even if it was really stolen, just forget it. Just think of it as a good deed and give it to him. Why make such a big deal out of it? What if it wasn't stolen? I wonder what you'll do!"

He couldn't count how many times he had to wipe his son's butt. Otherwise, why did he have so many white hairs? It was because he was angry with his son!

The two teachers sat at the upper seats, Zhuang Wenhua sat at the lower seat, wiping his sweat, and next to him was Li Yang's mother Xu Ya.

She was also notified at the last minute that her son was wrongly accused of stealing in the private school. She rushed over and saw that her son's clothes were disheveled, his eyes were swollen, and he was surrounded by several classmates.

Xu Ya cried and threw herself on her son. She listened to her son's classmates explain what happened and felt a surge of anger rising to her head.

It was already a great honor for her to be able to sit down calmly. She wished she could tear to pieces the teacher and student who had wrongly accused her son!

Teacher Xiao Zhou explained the incident in detail, and Zhuang Wenhua nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, Teacher, you are right. Paper is nothing. What is important is the friendship between classmates. I will teach the child a lesson when I go back and ask him to come and apologize to Li Yang tomorrow."

Xu Ya sneered and looked at Master Zhou who was sitting in the upper seat. "Since it has been found that my son did not steal other people's things, shouldn't the one who wronged him and beat him apologize?!"

She stared at Master Zhou, who beat her own son, wanting to hear what he would say.

Unexpectedly, Master Da Zhou just turned his eyes away and ignored what she said.

Zhuang Wenhua looked at the faces of the others and secretly wiped the sweat off his face, thinking, could it be that this woman still wants the master to apologize to her son? That shouldn't be possible, right?

Xu Ya really thought so. She stood up and looked directly at Master Zhou. "Sir, I admire you for being a scholar so I always tell my child to respect you. But what did you do today? You said it was my son who stole things without knowing the truth. A confession requires evidence. You just came and said it was my son who stole it. What if you beat the child and make him suffer?"

Master Da Zhou said nothing and pursed his lips.

He was indeed reckless today, but he really couldn't apologize to a student.
