Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Wait a Moment
“Suit yourselves,” Gu Zhihan shrugged.
Anyway, he had said all he needed to say, and whether they weeded the grass or not was no longer his concern.
So, while Gu Zhihan and the other students’ plastic bags were almost full of weeds, Mengmeng and her friends were still dilly-dallying on the grass.
Oh… to be precise, it was Tong Mo and Lu Zichen who were slacking off.
As for Mengmeng, she was bustling around next to Gu Zhihan, helping him with the weeding, unable to bear seeing him work so hard alone.
Every time the little girl scooped out a handful of grass, she would lift her head and hand it to him like a precious treasure, “Hubby, for you!!!”
Although she was holding a bunch of fresh weeds in her hands, her expression shone brilliantly, as if she was not handing him weeds but diamonds.
Gu Zhihan was slightly speechless for a moment, but still took it and stuffed it in the bag, “Thanks.”
After all, one should not waste free labor when it comes knocking…
“Damn, how did we end up with such a sycophantic friend?” Tong Mo and Lu Zichen couldn’t help but snort with disdain from a distance upon seeing this scene.
Just before the end of the first period, the homeroom teacher came over again. Seeing everyone’s bags packed full of weeds, she nodded with satisfaction, “Very good, everyone performed well, only… Luo Mengmeng, Tong Mo, and Lu Zichen, what’s the matter with you three?”
The homeroom teacher had been all smiles, but her mood flared up when she noticed that these three’s bags were barely filled.
“Where are the weeds I told you to remove?”
Mengmeng and her friends exchanged glances but said nothing, instead secretly waiting for her to say those words, “If you don’t fill your bags, you’re not allowed back in the classroom.”
That way, they could skip class under the guise of being lazy!
However, reality is always cruel while expectations are splendid!
“Did you think that by not speaking, I wouldn’t know you were slacking off while supposed to be weeding?” the homeroom teacher scoffed, folding her arms and glaring at them, “Now, the three of you, get back to class. You’ll be cleaning the bathrooms for the next week!”
Upon hearing this, Mengmeng and her friends were suddenly dumbstruck and frozen on the spot.
Wasn’t it agreed that if they didn’t fill their bags, they would keep weeding here?
How did it turn into a week of cleaning toilets?
“Tea-teacher, didn’t you say that if we didn’t fill the bags, we would just keep weeding here?” Lu Zichen was sweating profusely at this moment.
Cleaning toilets—geez, who doesn’t know that the fourth graders’ toilets are the stinkiest in the whole school!
“Am I not allowed to change my mind?” the homeroom teacher said righteously, as if she had seen through their little schemes long ago.
Ha, thinking you could use weeding as an excuse to skip class and laze around here? No way!
Mengmeng, Tong Mo, and Lu Zichen sported expressions of disbelief.
Homeroom teacher, you’ve truly disappointed us!!!
You’ve belied our deep, profound expectations of you!
Seeing them , the homeroom teacher couldn’t help but feel suspicious, “What? Do you think one week of cleaning is too little?”
“Should I add another week?” she generously added.
“No no no, one week is already too much…”
Mengmeng and the others were now completely exasperated. Hearing that the homeroom teacher even wanted to add another week almost made them burst a blood vessel.
Truly, it served them right!
