It was almost the end of the semester, and there was a little incident in the school.
It is said that a student in a certain school was diagnosed with a terminal illness, his serum creatinine was as high as 1,400, his kidneys were in severe failure, and he was in urgent need of a large sum of money for a kidney transplant.
It is said that the person who is sick is a lovely girl. Her family is poor but she strives for self-improvement and has excellent academic performance.
As soon as the news came out, the students were immediately deeply moved. Those who donated money were enthusiastic. The teachers in some classes even assigned essays to call on everyone to learn from the girl.
On the day when donations from the whole school were collected, I got the figures from my mother. Two thousand teachers and students in our school donated a total of more than 10,000 yuan to her, which was a huge sum of money during a time when all the people were laid off.
After the donations were sent, everyone was happy that they had helped an unfortunate little girl, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.
That day, school just ended at noon. My mother blocked me at the door of the classroom and pulled me to her office.
There were curious eyes everywhere along the way. I was quite puzzled. Why did the sun come out from the west today? Did something happen?
After closing the office door, she asked right away: "When you donated money a few days ago, how much did you donate?"
"Five yuan, what's wrong?" I was asked at a loss. At school, I kept a low profile and donated five yuan without showing anything.
"Only five yuan?" She was a little surprised, but she looked relaxed when she spoke: "I thought you could donate a lot."
I scratched my head and thought that I was right to donate five yuan to the school. I donated two thousand yuan each to the watch and optical shop and the winery in the name of the boss.
"What's wrong? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?" I glanced at the vice-principal sitting aside. He was sitting there with a frown on his face. He seemed to be in a bad mood.
¡°We were deceived!¡± My mother stamped her foot and grabbed a document from the table for me to read.
I took a quick look. Suddenly I was a little dumbfounded, damn, this kind of thing actually exists in the world!
The document was issued by the Municipal Education Commission and only briefly stated one thing. The donation solicitation some time ago was a fraud and was completely false. The little girl is indeed a real person. The little girl's uncle took advantage of her and her parents' trip to spread rumors that the girl was terminally ill and was hospitalized in another place and needed money for treatment. The teachers and leaders of all the little girl's schools were too kind and believed him, and then reported it to the Education Bureau. Afterwards, the Education Bureau called on teachers and students in the district to raise donations. After the money was raised, it was handed over to the little girl's school, but the little girl's uncle deceived him into getting it. Then the liar disappeared!
"What? Is this a scam at all?" I was stunned for a long time after reading it, and looked at my mother in disbelief.
"I have a terrible headache. How could such a thing happen-" My mother sat at the desk, scratching her head with both hands in anger.
¡°There is still one page left, you should read it first.¡± The uncle, the vice-principal, raised his chin to me.
I twisted the document paper in my hand, and sure enough, there was another page. I turned it over and saw that this page said that each school should handle the matter in a low-key manner, and just hold a meeting to explain it to the teacher, without informing the students. Try not to affect the final teaching.
"What does this mean? Let the students live in fairy tales?" I held up the document and looked at the vice principal. Look at my mother again.
"That's it." The vice-principal shrugged.
I was angry for a moment. I calmed down after thinking about it. Traditional education sometimes places too much emphasis on moral education. So far out of touch with reality, this problem cannot be solved overnight, and there is no point in getting angry now.
Just like an old lady who kindly helped a fallen old lady but was blackmailed, should we teach our children to stay away from an elderly lady who falls down in the future just because this happened? I was defrauded of my donation, should I donate next time? This is a complex proposition and there is never a right answer!
I threw the document on my mother¡¯s desk and asked with a sigh, ¡°How much did that person deceive in total?¡±
My mother smiled bitterly and shook her head.
I was reluctant: "Don't say you don't know, you can know this even if you don't know it!"
She glanced at me helplessly: "More than three hundred thousand."
"What?!" I exploded when I heard it: "More than three hundred thousand? Why so much?"
"They were given in batches. The person doing the work didn't communicate with them beforehand. They didn't know how many there were until after they were given." At this point, my mother's expression was almost exactly the same as mine. This thing was so unbelievable that it was hard to accept!
I really want to ask her how much she donated, but since the vice-principal is present, if the number is too large, it will easily give him a bad impression, so I have a bad impression of my mother.?Understood, it is absolutely possible for her to donate ten thousand to twenty thousand privately. If she was full of love at that time, it is possible to donate fifty thousand at once!
"Damn it, this kid got rich and defrauded him of more than 300,000 yuan and ran away" I muttered to myself, dumbfounded: "More than 300,000 yuan, I can't earn it even if I work honestly for the rest of my life."
The vice-principal on the side nodded and smiled dryly: "Including pension, it's almost the same. The premise is that the salary will be adjusted a few times."
This man knows how to enjoy hardships. I glanced at him, and we both had a wry smile on their faces.
"Let me guess, did you drink alcohol to that liar and then fully expect him to send good news back from the hospital in another place, but soon you saw the little girl and her family coming back? "
"Absolutely. The man disappeared on his own. At first, everyone thought he was in a hurry to send money so he left without saying goodbye. Unexpectedly, the person involved came back the next day and the story was immediately exposed."
"More than 300,000 yuan, is it enough to replace three or four kidneys?" I had the urge to curse.
The vice-principal drew circles on the folder with his finger: "If you have a kidney source, it's easy to find. If you can get some reduction in the cost, seven or eight can be enough."
My mother reasoned: "I think the liar didn't expect to make such a big fuss at first. More than 300,000 yuan is enough to build a primary school in the countryside."
"Is this person wanted now?" I said coldly: "He defrauded more than 300,000 yuan. The circumstances are serious and serious. It should be enough to kill him."
The vice-principal looked at me in surprise and nodded to express his approval of my words.
"I always feel that it would be better to make this matter public. When I see those children who were deceived and thought they had done good deeds, I feel heartbroken" My mother frowned as she looked at the document.
"Principal Chen, I think we should follow the instructions of the Education Bureau" the vice principal persuaded gently.
¡°We can only do this for now, let¡¯s wait until we catch that bastard.¡± I shook my mother¡¯s hand across the table, gave her a wink, then said goodbye to the two of them and left.
No matter how good the talents cultivated by stupid education are, they will still be people with high scores and low abilities who are divorced from reality! If you get perfect scores in all subjects in the exam, you will be overwhelmed when you enter the society, and you will be incompatible with reality!
This kind of thing happened. Although the Education Bureau's approach was unreasonable, it was understandable. There are reasons for people to do this. Although my mother has a high-level position in the Education Bureau and is a deputy to the Municipal People's Congress, she is still a person in the Bureau. Not involuntarily.
But as one of the "fooled" people, I refuse to accept it. Think about it, I have already been deceived by scammers once, defrauding money and emotions, and I am going to be fooled by your Education Bureau again. Being a hothouse flower and an innocent boy? I won't do this kind of thing, and I don't want others to be treated unfairly!
I was so angry that something like this happened. I didn¡¯t even plan to eat lunch. I just left the school and ran to the phone booth.
Contacted Liu Zhihai, Zhou Lihai, Kang Liming, Lu Na and Zhou Qing and told them that they had something to discuss and would meet at the Guoxiang Hotel in half an hour.
After the announcement, I went back to school and played some football. I figured it was almost time and took a taxi to Guoxiang Hotel.
When they entered the restaurant, they had already ordered their dishes and sat down. To their surprise, there was an extra lady present. Zhou Liang arrived in Mancheng at some unknown time. He was wearing a fiery red mink-collar fur coat and was very charming. He sat on Lu Na's table. Between Zhou Qing and Zhou Qing, the three beauties were shading each other, which made me a little distracted and made me feel a little better.
I didn¡¯t wait for the food to be served. I took a sip of tea after sitting down, and then told everyone about it.
"Damn it, I was cheated of five hundred yuan!" Kang Liming was the first to curse.
"I was cheated of two hundred dollars." Liu Zhihai shook his head.
"I am also five hundred." After Lu Na finished speaking, she asked Zhou Lihai, who was smiling strangely across from her: "Why are you laughing?"
"I estimated that the money donated by others would definitely be enough for the girl's surgery, so I didn't donate." Zhou Lihai forced a smile: "But I never expected that that person got more than 300,000 yuan in one go."
Seeing everyone turning their attention to himself and Zhou Liang beside him, Zhou Qing spread his hands and said with a smile: "We didn't know about this, so we didn't donate."
"Damn it, I'll arrange for someone to catch him when I get back soon! If he falls into my hands, I'll skin him!" Kang Liming said through gritted teeth.
I nodded and asked Zhou Lihai: "The Education Bureau's approach is too unfair to the students who donated money. I want to expose this matter to the media. What do you think?"
Zhou Lihai was thinking deeply, and Zhou Liang, who was opposite me, interrupted first: "It's useless, no media will publish it."
She just finished speakingImmediately five people at the table asked in unison: "Why?"
