Chapter 1897 Where is Teacher Zhang?
Suddenly, the second son's voice came from outside the door: "Is Teacher Jiang home?"
"Why is he here?" Teacher Jiang muttered to herself, then replied, "I'm inside."
When the second brother came in, he saw that the principal was indeed there. "Principal, I was at your house earlier. I'm here to invite you to my house for dinner." Noticing that the principal and Teacher Jiang's eyes were on his disabled right hand, he subconsciously hid his hand behind his back.
Teacher Jiang asked directly, "Second brother, how's your hand? Can you still work?"
The second brother shook his head with a wry smile, "I can't even lift anything with this hand, it's practically useless." His gaze fell on Teacher Jiang's injured left leg, "How's your leg? Is it better? Can you walk now?"
Teacher Jiang said with a gloomy face, "I can get out of bed now, but I need to use a cane."
The second son, preoccupied with his own worries, had no time to confide in him and urged the principal, "Principal, let's go quickly, my wife is waiting for me at home."
The principal had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye to Teacher Jiang. As he walked out, he asked in confusion, "Why did you suddenly decide to invite me to dinner? Is there something you need?"
"Teacher Zhang came to my house..."
The village chief's house was closest to the second son's house, so Liu Ni called the village chief over first.
The village chief, holding his own special glass teacup, swayed as he entered the kitchen, drawn by the aroma of the food. Seeing his second son's wife bustling around the stove, he smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, what delicious dishes have you prepared to invite me in for dinner?"
"Teacher Zhang is coming too, so I made a few good dishes. You can have a drink with him then," the second son's wife explained with a smile.
The village chief, oblivious to the unease in her smile, instinctively asked, "Where is he? I haven't seen him."
"He was still sitting in the main room when I went into the kitchen," the second son's wife said, feigning confusion. "You didn't see him?"
"No, not yet." The village chief said, turning to walk away, calling out, "Teacher Zhang? Teacher Zhang?"
The second son's wife followed behind and pretended to call out twice, "Teacher Zhang? Huh? Where is she?"
After calling out several times without response, the village chief guessed, "Did they go to the toilet?"
The second son's wife guiltily agreed, "Maybe."
Just then, a commotion came from outside. The village chief thought it was Zhang Ran, so he went to the gate and craned his neck to look. It turned out to be the second son bringing the principal.
The two chatted and laughed as they entered the house.
When the village chief met the principal, the two chatted warmly, completely unaware that the second son and his wife had exchanged glances.
The second son's wife pretended to go to the kitchen to keep busy again.
The second brother accompanied the principal and the others for tea and conversation, waiting for Liu Ni to lead Fu Qin into the house before standing up and saying, "Everyone's here, let's eat. I'll go to the kitchen to get the dishes."
The couple each brought a plate of food to the table.
The second son suddenly asked his wife, "Where is Teacher Zhang?"
The woman feigned confusion, "I don't know."
The principal and the village chief looked at each other in bewilderment.
Fu Qin, who had just entered, looked at the scene before her with utter confusion.
Suddenly, faint crying could be heard coming from the room opposite.
The second brother's face changed drastically as he exclaimed, "Could Teacher Zhang be in Si Ni's room?!" He rushed over, kicked open the door, and stormed in, yelling, "You beast! I'm going to kill you!"
The second son's wife was the first to rush in, pretending to grab her husband, and tearfully questioned Zhang Ran, who had just woken up in bed: "How could you bully my daughter? How could you do this?"
