Chapter 443: Four hundred and forty-three, we exit park_1

Gu Chen had no idea that Tangtang would suddenly get so angry.

Was it because of feeling wronged? It seemed so.

After Tangtang had spoken, all the teachers and parents shifted their attention toward her.

They didn’t look at Tangtang, but all turned to Gu Chen instead.

Gu Chen was Tangtang’s parent; of course, everyone would look at Gu Chen.

They all looked at Gu Chen with very strange gazes.

In their eyes, Gu Chen must be a parent who didn’t watch his words, otherwise how could his own child make such outrageous statements?

"Ten thousand yuan a day, I wonder if even Chuan City’s richest could manage that?"

"Ten thousand yuan, many families might not earn that much in a whole year."

"Since when did Chuan City have such a superior family? I’ve never heard of this before."

At this moment, the parents seemed to be discussing among themselves, but they were all making veiled criticisms of Gu Chen.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen furrowed his brows slightly.

The child who had spoken out against Tangtang then continued, "Not at all, Tangtang just likes to brag, she also said her dad’s cafe is very popular, visited by all the wealthy people in Chuan City.

She even claimed the cars they drive are worth hundreds of thousands each."

He relayed everything Tangtang had said word for word.

"I’m telling the truth!" Tangtang interjected again.

At this point, the teacher stepped forward and said, "Let’s not argue any further, let’s stop this matter here for today."

"Parents should educate their children properly when they get home and set a positive example in front of their children.

As for money, I personally think it’s best to give children a simple concept rather than let them delve into it too early.

Finally, children are at the purest age where any bad habit can affect them for life.

Among these, we are particularly concerned about children telling lies or boasting."

She said this to the parents.

All the parents nodded and agreed.

"The teacher is right, if the adults like to brag, the children are very good learners and will only pick up bad habits."

"Absolutely, parents should lead by example and not have such a strong comparing mindset. It’s not shameful how much money one earns, but it is character flaw not to accept your own income level."

"I think parents should be down-to-earth role models for their children."

Everyone was chiming in, one after another.

In their eyes, the situation was now very clear.

The child who bragged was Tangtang, and her inappropriate parent was naturally Gu Chen.

"So today let’s leave it at that..." The teacher was about to ask the parents to take their children and leave after a brief parents’ meeting.

Suddenly, a voice interrupted her,

"Teacher, I completely agree with what you said, boasting and lying are indeed bad habits."

"However, a person’s household and income levels are closely related to the parents’ capabilities."

"Maybe some people earn just eight hundred yuan a month, while others’ incomes are ten thousand a day.

We shouldn’t cater to ignorance for eight hundred yuan, and diminish ten thousand yuan.

In a society where everyone is equal, everything should be fair.

A child cannot choose their own birth, and having a wealthier family background is a condition created by the hard work of previous generations, a fact that is recognized both domestically and globally."

"Could it be that having money is now a sin?"

Gu Chen slowly said to the substitute teacher.

As he spoke, he scanned all those present in the room.

The teacher had not expected Gu Chen to say such words.

"The more ignorant a person is, the more fearless they become. Once the income increases, the environment changes too.

Take, for example, the richest man in Chuan City. Although I don’t know who he is, what I can be sure of is that a person who earns ten thousand yuan a day must have seen quite a bit, and that’s not surprising."

At this point, Gu Chen firmly stood by Tangtang’s side.

He didn’t know what these parents were thinking, but he was clear in his mind that these parents were simply denying the existence of high-income individuals in society due to their narrow outlook.

Their ignorance was the true source of the detrimental influence on the children’s values.

After hearing Gu Chen’s words, the teacher was genuinely surprised.

The surrounding parents were also quite astonished.

However, it wasn’t long before there were dissident voices among the parents.

"So you mean to say that you can really earn ten thousand yuan in a day?" one parent asked.

"Heh, ten thousand yuan a day, that’s three hundred thousand a month. With that kind of money, you’d be on par with those rich folks abroad," another chimed in.

"Are you saying that low-income people are ignorant? That’s a rather absolute statement to make."

The parents all voiced their doubts towards Gu Chen.

As for the believability of Gu Chen’s income of ten thousand yuan a day, they were not convinced.

Including the substitute teacher, who was also skeptical.

"Parent of Tangtang, you should still be careful with your words," she cautioned Gu Chen.

"I know exactly what I am saying.

My child did nothing wrong; he merely spoke the truth.

As for the other children in this kindergarten, I believe they mean no harm; it’s just their parents who limit them with their own ignorance."

"I think I’ve come to understand the situation within our kindergarten. It seems our Tangtang is not suited to continue learning here. Please process the withdrawal for our Tangtang," he said to the substitute teacher.

Nobody had expected Gu Chen to be so resolutely convinced that he was telling the truth.

Even to the point of choosing to withdraw.

Upon hearing this, the substitute teacher’s face registered clear surprise.

"Tangtang’s parent, isn’t that a bit extreme?" she said to Gu Chen.

"I simply don’t want my child to grow up in such an environment.

Perhaps the education she needs is something this kindergarten cannot provide."

At this moment, Gu Chen was straightforward and blunt.

There was no longer any need to spare these people’s feelings.

Gu Chen had once thought that children were innocent and that regardless of their family backgrounds, they could all play happily together.

But now, Gu Chen understood that he had been wrong.

Many of the social factors involving children are inseparable from their parents.

He absolutely could not allow these children, carrying their parents’ values, to influence Tangtang’s worldview.

Seeing Gu Chen’s determined stance, the substitute teacher didn’t know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Gu Chen turned again to the parent he had spoken to earlier.

"Finally, I want to say that there are many wealthy businessmen in our country, and we are not inferior to foreigners, so there’s no need for us to compare ourselves."

Having said this, Gu Chen left with Tangtang.

Once outside, Tangtang firmly grasped Gu Chen’s hand. To her, Gu Chen was a beacon of light.
