[Foreword] I originally had the title of "Provincial Model Teacher". It was only a few days. Not only did I experience the death of my mother, but I was also scolded by hot searches and became a scumbag on the Internet. All of this starts with what I did...

1. My mother fell ill
A week ago, my mother fell ill.
When my wife called to tell me the news, I was still at school, preparing for the evening self-study.
After I asked a colleague to help substitute the lesson, I rushed to the hospital.
"The test results are here. Mom suffers from high blood pressure, cirrhosis, and kidney failure. The doctor said that long-term treatment is needed, so let us be prepared." His wife said.
After speaking, my wife threw herself into my arms and burst into tears.
I touched my wife's head to comfort her, but my heart was already cold.
Although I am mentally prepared, the medical expenses are ridiculously high. The cost of treatment for just one day is more than four thousand yuan, which is more than my monthly salary.
But this person is my mother, no matter how expensive it is, he can be cured.
However, I have just got married not long ago. The pre-marriage gift and the house after the marriage have already emptied the family. Where is the money now?
I have called everyone I know. Some relatives who are close to each other are fine. Although not many, they finally borrowed a little money from them. But the usual friends are different. When the other party heard that he was going to borrow money, he either hung up the phone immediately or found various excuses to decline.
Hypocrisy! Usually they are like brothers, but when it is critical, everyone changes their faces!
Fortunately, my wife Li Mei explained the situation with her mother's family. The mother's family is more or less reasonable, and also gave a little thought. This makes me feel even more that I have met a good wife.
Although I borrowed tens of thousands of yuan,But the money can only help a mother who is seriously ill. After the borrowed money is exhausted, it becomes a bigger problem.
I am just a middle school teacher. Although I teach well, I can only get four thousand salary per month. His wife Li Mei is just a civil servant. The combined salary of two people is less than 10,000 yuan a month. Faced with the mother's medical expenses, it is just a drop in the bucket.
At this moment, I am thinking about what to do next. Suddenly, I felt a hand grabbing my shoulder. I turned my head and it was my wife Li Mei.
Seeing my wife's gentle eyes, I think she is really a good wife. Although the husband and wife are in the same forest, and when the disaster is approaching, they can only take care of each other, but she did not choose to fly solo.
"Why don't you sell the house?" said Li Mei, who was nestling in my arms.
I am a joke, pushing away my wife reflexively. But then he held his wife's hands tightly as if doing something wrong.
The new home that I had so hard to own, absolutely cannot give up.

2. I moved into a new home but had an accident
Since I was young, my father taught me to behave well, sit well, and be self-reliant. I engraved these words firmly in my heart and regarded them as my life's creed.
When I was in college, I wanted to go to graduate school, but an accident interrupted my plans for further studies.
My father died in a car accident. Only me, who has not yet entered the society, and my mother who has been working at home because of poor health are left.
After the death of his father, the family's source of income was cut off. Therefore, after graduating from university, I decisively gave up my plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Instead, I took the teacher qualification certificate and became a teacher in a middle school in my hometown.
After becoming a teacher, I am conscientious and responsible and work hard in teaching. Students, parents, and colleagues all praised my abilities. Therefore, during my several years of teaching in the school, I have been continuously rated as "Young Excellent Teacher"."Provincial model teacher" and "provincial backbone teacher" are well-known in the local area.
Actually, with my ability, I can teach in the city and get a higher salary. But I chose to be a teacher in my hometown school for a simple reason: it is convenient to take care of and accompany my mother.
My mother is very satisfied with my filial piety. The only thing that worries her is that I am so old now, but still single. In order not to worry my mother, I started going on a blind date, and in the process I met my current wife, Li Mei.
Li Mei is also a college student. After graduation, she works in a local bank, and she works freely every day. Because the two are both college students and have many topics in common, they naturally come together. During my relationship, my strong temperament attracted Li Mei deeply, and the virtuousness of Li Mei also attracted me.
After seeing each other's parents, they were very satisfied, so we got married after half a year in love.
After marriage, Li Mei is still very virtuous, she will prepare breakfast for me every day, and she also covers all the housework at home. The old man looked in his eyes and moved in his heart.
After three months of marriage, I plan to buy a small house in the town with my family savings and my salary. In this way, one can upgrade from a "village person" to a "town person", and secondly, the town is a little closer to where Li Mei works, making it easier to go back and forth.
Mother strongly agrees. After all, Li Mei is too good to be a daughter-in-law to let her suffer with me. Li Mei didn't agree, saying that the savings at home are not too much now, and she can wait for a few more years, it doesn't matter. But I insisted on giving my wife happiness, so I bought a three-bedroom and one-living house in the town.
But I didn't want to. Only three months after moving into the new house, my mother was lying in the hospital bed because of a serious illness.

3. To raise money, I chose an off-campus substitute course
I have thought of all the methods I can think of, but they are not very reliable.
Nowadays, there is only one way, which is to substitute classes outside the school.
Actually, as long as I want,Using the time on weekends to substitute classes outside of school, you will definitely be able to earn much more than your own job. After all, I still have some local fame. Moreover, many people have approached me before and promised to give me generous rewards, but I all declined.
The Ministry of Education clearly stipulates that teachers are not allowed to substitute classes outside the school, otherwise the teacher's qualifications will be cancelled.
But the reality is that even with these regulations, many teachers still go to substitute classes on weekends. The attitude of many schools on this is that as long as things don't make a big deal, they just keep one eye open.
I always feel that this money is a bit wrong. After all, since the Ministry of Education has clearly stipulated that, if you surreptitiously run to substitute classes, you will always feel like a crime.
But now, there is no other way. If it were not desperate, if it was not because of my mother, if there were other ways, I would never do it.
Everything is to save my mother!
So, the next day, I dialed the number of the person who was looking for my substitute.
The other party heard that I was going to substitute the class, and was very excited and said that he would arrange for me immediately. So, my road of substitution began like this.
Due to my outstanding teaching ability and my local reputation, many students came to me to sign up. Therefore, in just one weekend, I made more than two thousand yuan by relying on substitute lessons. This is more than half of my monthly salary.
After I got the money, I was not very happy. On the one hand, I always feel that taking this money violates the life creed I established since I was a child; on the other hand, although I have earned more than two thousand yuan in two days, I face the medical expenses of my mother, especially when I think about hospital beds. Mother of Shanghai, my heart is like a stone, very heavy.
However, even if I work hard every day, the money I earn is not enough to spend.
The medical expenses that come from the hospital every day are like IOUs of loan sharks, which are "forcing" me to repay every day. Either dialysis is required, or oxygen is given. After a while, I will say that my condition has deteriorated and the treatment plan needs to be changed immediately. In a word: to pay, to pay a lot of money.
Mother needs someone to take care of her in the hospital bed, so the wife has to resign.In this way, the financial burden of the family was suddenly weighed on me.
What should I do?
While I was struggling with what to do, another big event happened.

4. I was scolded on the hot search
because of substitute lessons. I don’t know who is on the public account and published an article titled " Out-of-school substitutes for elites in education: the degeneration of teachers begins with me!" article.
This article criticized me as an excellent teacher, a model teacher, and openly tutored outside the school. It discredited the noble soul of the teacher, and opened a bad head among the teachers. The impact was extremely bad and it caused the society. Adverse effects and so on.
Because this article is well-founded and well-written. The amount of reading and reposting of this article is extremely high. In the following hours, the following articles rushed over like flies. Soon, the thing about my substitute class became a hot search.
After reading the article, readers left messages to express their opinions and opinions, saying that I am a scum in education, a slave of money, a moth in society, and so on.
All of a sudden, I became a rat crossing the street.
The principal also called me "in time" and told me that I don't have to come to school for the time being.
Seeing these news, my head almost exploded. I just want to save my mother, how could it be like this!
After that, I shut myself at home every day and didn't dare to go out.
Faced with the malice from outside the door, I felt an unprecedented fear. I could only shut myself up at home all day. But even so, some boring people tried their best to find my phone, send me malicious text messages, and even curse me to death.
I don't want to pay attention to these, so I can only hung up the phone in a hurry and mute the phone. I cannot shut down. Now that my job is gone, and substitute classes can no longer continue, it is equivalent to saying that the source of income is completely cut off. If there is a call from the hospital, I need to know in time.
Faced with the blade and some malicious letters stuffed in from outside the door,My heart is twisted, but what can I do? I can only choose to ignore it.
I am starting to regret it. If you didn't choose substitute classes at the beginning, but chose those unreliable methods, things wouldn't be like this! Today, my mother is still lying in the hospital bed. What would she think if she knew about it?
I dare not think about it anymore.

5. I have nowhere to go
I really have nowhere to go.
If it wasn't for my wife to make a few calls from time to time to encourage me to be strong after seeing the news, I would have fallen apart a long time ago.
I have lost my job, and because of my hot search for substitute classes, parents have asked for tuition refunds. Today, I have no financial resources at all, and my mother is still lying on the hospital bed.
What should we do now? I am totally out of ideas.
At this time, I received a call from my wife. Her tone was still very gentle, she didn't mean to blame me at all, but said, no matter what I became, she was my person for life, and my ghost for death!
I don't understand why my wife said so suddenly. But she didn't explain much, just encouraged me to be strong and everything will pass.
I hung up in confusion.
Before I could respond, another call came immediately. This call is from my mother-in-law.
It turned out that when my mother-in-law learned of this from her mobile phone, she wanted her daughter to divorce me. But Li Mei loves me, and she firmly disagrees. Moreover, now that my mother-in-law and husband are in distress, I can't even go away.
Seeing that her daughter was so rebellious, her father-in-law and mother-in-law immediately let go. If they don't get divorced, they will never go back to her in-law's house and hang up the phone.
However, my mother-in-law calmed down and analyzed it afterwards. She felt that this kind of head-to-head confrontation would eventually hurt both sides. So planning to call me. After all, if I really love my wife, I will definitely not let my wife suffer with me.So, there was this call.
On the phone, my mother-in-law tried to persuade me for more than an hour.
On the other side of the phone, I was crying and listening, remembering the words my wife had just said in my mind.
I understand my luck. To be able to have such a wife, I don't know how many generations I have cultivated the blessing. However, back to reality, facing the hardship of my mother-in-law, I really don't know what to say.
Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, my mother-in-law thought that she wouldn't be able to attack, so she told me to think about it, and she hung up the phone.
Listening to the blind tone on the phone, the happy moments of myself and my wife flashed in my mind. I was sitting on a chair like a statue, without moving for a long time.

6. Now I can't stand up anymore
"I, come to the hospital, something happened to mom!"
I don't know when I fell asleep I was awakened by the sound of a phone call, and when I connected the phone, I heard such a sentence.
After hearing this, I suddenly became energetic. Regardless of other things, he immediately ran out of the house.
I stayed at home for three consecutive days. For these three days, I have been in a trance. I didn't eat well and didn't sleep well. Now that I just ran out of the house, I felt my legs were soft and my head was a little dizzy. But I didn't care about this, ran into the street, stopped a car and went to the hospital.
After I came to the hospital, I saw my wife.
The wife has already cried into tears.
"Mom last night, she unplugged her oxygen mask!"
I couldn't believe my ears. I squeezed Li Mei's shoulders tightly with both hands, and wanted to know the situation.
Li Mei ignored the pain in her shoulders, and cried while telling the situation.
It turned out that my mother knew about it the day after I became a news figure. It is said that a nurse who took care of my mother accidentally said it.
Although Li Mei tried her best to comfort her mother-in-law, it was too late, and her mother-in-law already knew all this. She began to pull out the needle from her body and refused to cooperate with the treatment. The doctor had to give her a sedative.
Because the things on my side were bad enough, Li Mei didn't want to worry about it anymore, so Li Mei kept the matter down, just called me from time to time to encourage me to be strong.
However, in the middle of the night, when Li Mei fell asleep because she couldn't stand it, her mother opened her eyes and quietly took off her oxygen mask.
Probably because Li Mei has been taking care of her mother-in-law these days, she has been exhausted and slept a lot at night, so she didn't notice it.
When Li Mei woke up the next day, everything was too late.
I can't hold it anymore when I hear this. I slumped on the ground, tears streaming down my eyes.
I howled loudly, wanting to yell out all the awkwardness I have experienced in the past few days. This man, for the sake of his mother, I have endured the curse of the world. But now, I have been busy for so long, but it is nothing to draw water from a bamboo basket.
Because the sound was so tragic, it attracted a lot of people's onlookers. In the end, the doctors understood this, but in the end they had to call in security and carried me out of the hospital.
Outside the hospital, I kept crying and howling, as if I was telling the injustice of the world. However, facing me, it is still the audience. Only my wife, hugging me tightly, and crying there with me...
After sending my mother away, my whole person was like a corpse, lying at home all day, as if my soul had been taken away.
Today, I can't stand up anymore.

Seven, things have reversed
However, the next day, my substitutes had a reverse.
Early this morning, several articles with very high forwarding rates appeared on the official account.Still talking about my substitute. However, this article has portrayed the whole story of my substitute lesson exactly as it was, along with a few vivid photos. One of them was a photo of me crying out of the hospital. After
, there are several articles that continue to rub the heat, but the main idea of the article is to say that there is a reason for my substitute, all for my seriously ill mother. With the fermentation of this incident, I was once again on the hot search.
For a while, all the people who used to scold me, now there is a big change of 180 degrees, and they all start to support me. Some posted videos on the Internet to send blessings to my mother, some directly sent a letter of condolences to my school, and some, somehow they knew my phone number, and actually said they wanted to raise money for me.
Suddenly, my enthusiasm was picked up again, and everyone started to leave comments below the article to express their views. Some people say that I am a filial son and a hero; others say that I violated the rules because of my mother. Such behavior will have a bad impact on society. However, generally speaking, the positive responses are mostly.
I did not have much reaction to these things. After all, the mother is no longer there, and these have little meaning.
Seeing such a decadent husband every day, Li Mei felt very uncomfortable.
Although Li Mei herself is very guilty, after all, it was her negligence that led to this tragedy. For this, she kept apologizing to me afterwards and begged for my forgiveness. And I didn't blame her, after all, my wife had done a good job. On the contrary, it was myself, if it hadn't been because I was dazzled by money and lost my judgment, things wouldn't be like this.
I will not forgive myself!
The next day, Li Mei's cell phone rang. She answered the phone and was her mother.
It turned out that my mother-in-law recently saw "new news" and finally stopped forcing us to divorce. After learning about my current situation, I just asked Li Mei to persuade me, after all, the young couple still have to live.
Li Mei breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, but then she looked at me again and sighed deeply.

Its profit is broken
The next night, Li Mei did not come back for a long time. I didn't pay much attention to these at first. However, at 8:30 in the evening, Li Mei hadn't returned yet, and I began to feel uneasy. I called Li Mei, but no one answered.
When I was a little confused, the phone rang.
I got on the phone, and "Help! I'm in the toilet at Xingfu Street Plaza...Ah!..." and hung up the phone.
When I heard this, my heart was tight, and I hurried to Xingfu Avenue.
On the road, I began to regret it. If it weren't for myself to be so decadent, my wife wouldn't have an accident. As I ran, I prayed not to trouble my wife.
After arriving at Xingfu Street, I immediately ran towards the toilet.
However, at a corner, I knocked down a person. Looking down, it was his wife.
I didn't react for a while and asked what was going on.
Li Mei held back a smile and said:
"It seems that you still care about your wife."
Turns out, seeing my decadent appearance every day, my wife couldn't bear it, so she made a plan and wanted me to do it again. Become strong.
I understand, turn around and leave.
"Hey, I was hit on the ground by you. Didn't you come to help me?"
I held her up angrily, but didn't say a word.
"The past is over. You have tried your best. It is not our fault. You have missed your mother. Are you still missing me?" Li Mei said.
I thought for a while, did not speak, just hugged my wife tightly.
"You knocked me down just now, now, you will be responsible for me in the future, you know? Otherwise, haha, you know."
I reluctantly squeezed a smile and said:
"Why, touch porcelain?"
"Yes! Touch porcelain, and you will be responsible to me for the rest of my life."
I held my wife tighter.
"Thank you." I said.
"Thank me for what?"
"If it weren't for you, I would have long been unable to survive."
"Isn't it said that if a husband and wife are of the same heart, it is profitable? No matter how strong a person is, his strength is limited. One more person can increase its power by a few more points. Do you still use me to teach you the principle of collecting firewood and high flames? Teacher? Hahahaha."
"Yes, yes."
I took a deep breath ,Laughed.
