Kou Chen's letter made Huo Ran lie beside the bed and laugh for five minutes. After laughing, he felt a little sad.

Although the letter was very short and the wording was childish like that of a primary school student, he was sure that it was written seriously by Kou Chen. He could also feel that Kou Chen loved his father and Kou Laoer also loved his son, but it was just

As Kou Chen said, people with different styles cannot understand each other. In other words, Kou Chen can try to understand, but Kou Laoer has difficulty understanding Kou Chen because of some stubborn thoughts of "I am your father."

At this point, Huo Ran felt that his parents were much more open-minded.

Although their enlightenment may be based on the tragedy of the past, after all, they worked hard to let themselves grow up in an environment that had few requirements and was so relaxed that many people would envy them. This seemingly "nothing care" state,

Behind the scenes is actually the huge contribution of my mother and father.

-I have grown up, and gradually I can understand your worries behind my generosity. For me, this is also a kind of pressure. In fact, I can bear much more than you think. I hope you can

Can relax a little and be happy

This is the central idea in his letter. Compared with this, his letter and Kou Chen's letter are completely different.

"You grew up in a fucking honeypot, right?" Kou Chen stood under a tree at least a hundred meters away from the teaching building of his class, watching the parents arriving one after another.

"What's wrong?" Huo Ran asked.

"I have no complaints about your parents at all," Kou Chen glanced at him, "My dad would definitely want one for such a good son."

"Your dad also cares about you," Huo Ran said. "You can feel it yourself, but the way is unacceptable. There are too many parents like this."

"There are too few teachers like Lao Yuan," Kou Chen said.

"Are you going to listen later?" Huo Ran asked.

"If you don't want to listen, go and chat in the cafeteria," Kou Chen said, then added after thinking about it, "Just listen to a few words and go."

Xu Zhifan's father did not come to the parent-teacher meeting and went to the police station. They planned to go to the cafeteria to chat together when the parent-teacher meeting started, so that Xu Zhifan would not feel depressed.

They were not sure whether Aunt Hu's family had reported the crime. Xu Zhifan's father reported the case last month, but there has been no progress. Now that Aunt Hu has woken up, his father went there again and thought that maybe the police could ask.

Ask something.

"Holy shit, my dad is here." Kou Chen quickly hid behind a tree.

"What are you hiding from?" Huo Ran glanced at him, "Didn't he already know your grades and ridicule you?"

"I don't know," Kou Chen leaned behind a tree, "I wanted to hide when I saw him."

"Are you afraid that he will hit you? Or scold you?" Huo Ran looked over there, and Kou Laoer walked into the teaching building while talking to an unknown parent like a gangster paying a private visit.

"He wouldn't beat me and scold me outside," Kou Chen said.

"Then hide away," Huo Ran said, "he has entered the building."

"I don't know why I'm hiding," Kou Chen poked his head out from behind the tree to take a look, and then added, "I just want to hide. I think most people our age, especially boys, would be embarrassed when they are with their parents. I still

Try to avoid meetings as much as possible.”

"I didn't." Huoran raised the corner of his mouth.

"So we complement each other." Kou Chen said.

Huo Ran thought for a while and didn't understand how this could complement each other.

All the parents arrived, and Lao Yuan and Wu Xiaochen also entered the building carrying a box.

Xu Zhifan, Xu Chuan and the others walked out of the office building and waved here.

"Let's go up and have a listen first," Xu Zhifan said.

"Okay." Several people nodded.

When I went upstairs, I found that the classroom was full of students from their class. Usually when there is a parent-teacher meeting, everyone would hide out. It would be even better if they could stay up all night. This time, almost the whole class was crowded at the door, and there were also people standing on the stairs.

Quite a few, including students from other classes.

"Your class always behaves uniquely," someone said.

"I'm jealous." Jiang Lei didn't see clearly who asked, so he answered casually as he squeezed upstairs.

"If you encounter a parent who doesn't understand and complain, you, Mr. Yuan, will be in trouble." Someone else said.

"Be careful what you say," Xu Chuan said, "Who are you cursing?"

"Bah!" Wei Chaoren looked at the person next to him fiercely, "Who said just now, bah!"

"Bah, bah, bah," a boy in the second article said, "Okay, so superstitious."

"If you say others don't care, it's shameful if you say Lao Yuan." Wei Chaoren said.

The group of seven crowded to the door.

The classroom door was wide open, and the classroom was full of parents. At the end of the classroom, the director held a chair as usual and sat there with several teachers, listening.

Although the director usually always has a straight face and is afraid of whoever looks at him, every time Lao Yuan wants to play something "yaomozi", he will agree and come over to join in the fun... no, to observe.

Lao Yuan did not stand on the podium, but walked back and forth in the classroom, personally sending letters to parents. Wu Xiaochen followed him holding the box containing the letters.

"Today's parent-teacher meeting actually has little to do with the students," Lao Yuan said slowly while delivering a letter to the parents. "I have emphasized before that except for special circumstances, parents must be allowed to attend.

, because this is a real parent-teacher meeting, a real communication between teachers and parents, and the communication process is not about talking about right and wrong behind your children’s back..."

"Please don't open it yet." Wu Xiaochen reminded parents softly.

"As for the result of the exchange, it is definitely not for you to go back and show off your children," Lao Yuan said, "nor is it for you to go back and beat and scold your children with excuses like 'your teacher said it.' The purpose of our exchange is twofold.

…”

After sending all the letters, Lao Yuan returned to the podium, stretched his arms on the podium, and scanned the faces of the confused parents below: "First, learn to respect. These letters are out of the children's feelings towards me and towards me.

I wrote this because of your trust. They expressed their feelings freely in the letter. They may be happy, complain, or even say something radical. They can write these things because of their trust, so I hope that all parents will be worthy of their trust and repay them.

Out of respect, please keep the owner of the letter in your hand a secret, as it is their precious innermost thoughts."

The parents in the classroom became quiet. Some looked at the letter in their hands, some looked at Lao Yuan, and some were thoughtful, but no parent opened the letter in advance.

"Second, learn to truly understand your children," Lao Yuan continued. "The owners of the letters in your hands may be that 'other people's children'. He may not be happy in the letter, and he may be unhappy."

There is a lot of depression and dissatisfaction. Their owner may be the child who makes you say, "Don't play with that kind of people all the time." He may be humorous and interesting... Everything is unknown, and everything is possible. This

They are your children. I hope all parents will join me. From today on, from now on, try to give up your 'parent's' heights and understand your children through their children's eyes."

After a brief silence, someone in the classroom clapped, followed by a round of applause.

"Today, the parents of three classmates were unable to attend because of something else, so the three extra letters will be opened by me, the director, and Teacher Sun." Lao Yuan stepped down from the podium and gave the two letters to the director and the children.

Teacher Sun, "In addition, if any parent has any doubts about the content of the letter, please chat with me alone. The format of the letter is to burn it after reading. Wu Xiaochen will take back the letter at the end. Thank you for your cooperation.

"

After Lao Yuan announced that it was time to open the letter, the parents in the classroom lowered their heads and began to open the letter. It was very quiet and the only sound of shredded paper could be heard.

"Oh shit, I think I saw my letter." Jiang Lei whispered.

"Which parent got it?" Huo Ran asked.

"I don't know her," Jiang Lei said. "She seems to be a very kind aunt. In my letter, I scolded my mother for throwing away my toys. I have remembered this for more than ten years, and I think I will remember it for the rest of my life."

Huo Ran turned to stare at the back of his father's head. In his family, his mother usually held parent-teacher meetings, but after hearing that it was going to be like this this time, his father strongly requested to attend.

At this moment, my father was looking attentively at a letter from an unknown classmate in his hand. He could see that the letter was quite long and densely written on two pieces of paper.

After Dad watched for a while, Huoran could see him smiling from the side of his face.

Kou Chen's father's expression was different. He also read it seriously, but with a frown. There were only a few lines in the letter, but he kept reading it over and over again.

The students crowded outside the door were also very quiet, staring at the parents inside.

A few minutes later, an aunt suddenly leaned on the table. After a while, her shoulders began to shake slightly.

"My mother," Tang Wei said, "I don't know who's letter I saw... I guess she saw whose child was unhappy."

Then several more mothers lowered their heads and wiped their eyes with their hands. Huo Ran even saw a few fathers quickly turning their heads and wiping their eyes.

Perhaps they were infected by the scene in the classroom, and some students outside also started crying.

Compared to their parents, they cried much more freely, all with a loud voice, and some of them blew their noses unscrupulously. After a while, the classroom was full of tears inside and outside.

Huo Ran felt a little strange.

Maybe it's Lao Yuan's words, maybe it's the atmosphere. The parents inside have seen the inner thoughts of the crying children outside, and are touched by it now, which is more effective than many principles.

Maybe after today, more than half of the parents will return to their original state. Of the remaining half, half have been touched for several months, and half and half have been trying to understand for a year and a half, and finally can really start.

There may be very few parents who try to change their minds, but no matter what, this parent-teacher meeting is quite meaningful.

Huo Ran didn't cry. Compared to many classmates, he had no reason to cry, such as Kou Chen...

He turned his head and immediately saw Kou Chen's red eyes.

"Chen Chen?" He suddenly remembered the words in Kou Chen's letter, and suddenly felt a little sad. He reached out and patted Kou Chen's back gently.

"Aren't you numb? Ran Ran." Kou Chen whispered, with a heavy nasal sound in his voice, but the tears in his eyes disappeared quickly.

After all, you have to maintain the image of being cool, handsome and capable of fighting.

The group of seven went to the cafeteria without waiting for the parent-teacher meeting to end.
