Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Although Wang Dashan did not want his mother to go to school to find the teacher, when Monday came, Li Xiulan really did make a trip to the middle school in Town.

She also brought a large Basket of Eggs over.

At that time Wang Dashan was training for sprints on the Playground.

Li Xiulan found Wang Dashan under the gaze of a crowd of Sports Students.

Wang Dashan felt mortified.

Especially since Li Xiulan was carrying a Basket of Eggs, looking super old-fashioned.

The classmates around him saw it and all started making a racket, laughing.

"Mom, what are you doing here?"

Wang Dashan asked with a long face.

"To bring you Eggs, didn't we Agree? Let your teacher boil you one Egg every day."

Li Xiulan said like that.

Wang Dashan wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Mom, I already said no, why do you Insist on bringing Eggs over, how embarrassing!"

Li Xiulan immediately said with Displeasure:

"What's so embarrassing about this? These Eggs are laid by the Chickens at Home, we don't steal, we don't rob, how is it embarrassing? Take me to see your teacher!"

Wang Dashan knew that if his mother didn't see his PE teacher today, she would probably make a scene at School for a while, so he hurriedly said:

"My PE teacher is over there! You go by yourself! I'm not going! I don't have the face to go beg someone to do such a thing!"

Li Xiulan said disdainfully: "Why be so thin-skinned? Thicker skin is better, if you don't go, I will!"

Li Xiulan came before Wang Dashan's PE teacher and handed over a Basket of raw Eggs to him.

"You are Dashan's PE teacher, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"I am Dashan's mother. Didn't you say Dashan needs to eat Eggs to supplement nutrition? I brought a Basket of raw Eggs over, please trouble you, Teacher, to boil one for him every day, okay?"

The PE teacher showed a hint of Surprise; a parent directly bringing Eggs over for him to help boil was the first time he had encountered it.

But he was not some lofty figure; he could understand Li Xiulan's seemingly Absurd approach. In this Town middle school, most were children of Poor Persons, and based on the principle of saving wherever possible, letting him help boil Eggs was indeed the most money-saving way.

"Fine, No problem, leave the Eggs with you, I'll take them back to my Dormitory later, and from now on boil one for your Dashan every morning!"

The PE teacher smiled enthusiastically and answered like that.

"Thank you, Teacher, you are truly a Good Person!"

Li Xiulan showed a Smile on her face, full of Gratitude.

Actually she was still a bit worried the PE teacher wouldn't help her with this favor.

After all, he was just a PE teacher, not someone in charge of food at School; he had no Obligation to help her son do such Troublesome things.

"You're welcome. Dashan is a good seedling; as long as he is properly Cultivated, he can definitely Test Into High School as a Sports Talent Student!"

The PE teacher had actually Long Ago seen Wang Dashan's Aptitude.

Wang Dashan seemed tall and thin, but in reality his stamina was extraordinary; the first time he ran three thousand meters he could run out a First Place good result—this was truly not simple!

"Thank you, Teacher, for thinking so highly of our Dashan. As for the Eggs inside this Basket, Teacher, if you want to eat, you can eat as you please. When you Finish Eating, tell Dashan to come back and tell me, and I'll bring another Basket over!"

Li Xiulan smiled simply and honestly.

The PE teacher hurriedly said:

"Rest assured, I won't eat a single one of these Eggs; they're all for your Dashan to eat!"

Li Xiulan chatted a few more words with the PE teacher, then said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, she also went specially to the Playground to say hello to Wang Dashan.

Wang Dashan's whole face was black.

Li Xiulan, dressed in old-fashioned clothes, came to School to bring Eggs to the teacher, really making him feel very embarrassed.

The classmates around were also mocking him.

Even after Li Xiulan left, they still laughed without stopping.

"What are you laughing at!"

Just then, the PE teacher walked over with a stern face.

The crowd of students hurriedly stopped their Smiles.

"What's there to laugh at? Wang Dashan's mother came to bring him Eggs, asking me to boil one Egg for Wang Dashan every day so that Wang Dashan's nutrition can keep up. This is the embodiment of maternal love. Is it funny? I see you all, one by one, Not Know what maternal love is—that is truly the most laughable!"

After the PE teacher's Scolding, the students finally stopped laughing.

The PE teacher also said to Wang Dashan:

"Wang Dashan, you shouldn't feel embarrassed; you should feel Proud. Tell me, among so many students, which student has a mother as considerate as yours?"

Finally the PE teacher also said:

"I'm not playing favorites. Whoever else wants me to help boil Eggs, just have your parents bring Eggs over. I'll boil them for you every morning anyway. Boiling one is boiling, boiling a pot is also boiling."

As a result, within a few days, quite a few parents also came to bring Eggs.

Wang Dashan was no longer mocked by others; instead, he facilitated a Good Thing.

He felt he was very sorry to his mother. The PE teacher was right. That day his mother specially came to bring him Eggs. He shouldn't have felt embarrassed; he should have felt Proud.

But his damn vanity and self-esteem caused him not only to fail to understand his mother's good intentions at the time, but instead to feel that her behavior had shamed him.

So he decided that after going home this weekend, he must apologize to his mother, and not let her feel chilled at heart.

He seriously thought up the words for his apology, and at dinner time, wanted to open his mouth and say sorry to Li Xiulan.

But for some reason, he still couldn't bring himself to say it.

Until the meal was almost finished eating, and Li Xiulan prepared to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, he still hadn't said it.

"Wang Dashan, what's wrong with you?"

Li Xiulan had long ago noticed Wang Dashan's complexion wasn't right, and couldn't help but ask this one sentence.

"Mom, I'm sorry..."

Wang Dashan finally spoke the words of apology.

But Li Xiulan misunderstood the meaning, her complexion immediately changed to great shock, then anger:

"What kind of words are these? You wouldn't have caused trouble for me at school, would you! I said, how come the moment you came back you had the look of a guilty thief! You honestly explain to me, what big mistake did you commit at school!"

Wang Dashan immediately didn't know whether to cry or laugh:

"Mom, I didn't..."

Wang Zhanggen at the side couldn't bear to watch either, and immediately said angrily:

"Look at your wretched appearance, and you still have the nerve to lie! Hurry up and honestly explain! You wouldn't have been persuaded to withdraw from school, would you!"

Li Xiulan felt the sky had collapsed; she had just gone to deliver eggs to Wang Dashan this past week, yet got this kind of result in return, it simply hurt her heart too much.

So without another word, she picked up her chopsticks and went to hit Wang Dashan's arm:

"I let you stir up trouble, can't you just properly finish junior high school! If you get persuaded to withdraw from school, tomorrow you'll go to the city to work for me!"

Wang Dashan was hit by Li Xiulan until his arm ached, and hurriedly dodged:

"I didn't, Mom, you misunderstood me, that's not what I meant!"

Wang Dashan wanted to cry but had no tears; had he known earlier, he wouldn't have come to apologize.

How could he have imagined it would invite this kind of misunderstanding?
