tenth year of teaching

Chapter 15 Birthday
In a blink of an eye, it’s October.

After more than a month of adjustment, most classes have stabilized.In early summer, I felt more and more headaches, and class management was different from teaching.As comfortable as she was in chemistry class, she struggled with class management.

There are three large display boards at the east gate of the teaching building, which write the class quantification of each grade.The first row is the class, and the second row is the name of the head teacher of each class. Class 12 has ranked last in the class quantification for three consecutive weeks. The big 16 written under Chu Xia’s name has never been changed, and the color is somewhat dim.

At the regular class teacher meeting on Monday, Lao Ma criticized Chu Xia by name.She couldn't stand it anymore, so she got up even earlier, and went to class at 6:20 every day to keep an eye on the students who were on duty and who were late. She didn't go to the dormitory until 10:00 after finishing self-study in the evening. She went to class more frequently to keep an eye on the students' quarrels between classes. You should lie down at the back door and grab the table, and take time to go to the teacher's office to ask about the class situation.

Most of the teachers in Class 12 complained about not handing in homework, so-and-so not listening carefully in class and answering questions, sleeping on the table...

The most talked about ones here are Zhang Yan and Li Hai, and Chu Xia is really a headache for them.I also talked to him, but he promised me well in the past, and he committed the crime again when I turned around. I was arrested and punished, so I had to contact my parents.

The sky is high and the clouds are clear in October, which is the most comfortable season of the year.

Zhang Yan leaned against the tree beside the playground, looking up at the sky through the shadow of the trees, thinking about something in a daze.Li Hai ran over and yelled at his back, "What are you doing?"

"Damn, why are you so crazy?" Zhang Yan was startled, jumped up and gave Li Hai a spoon.

"Hey, I was wrong." Li Hai grabbed his arm while hiding, "The teacher called for assembly and left."

The two people walked towards the center of the playground and said, "I have a surprise for you tonight!"

"What's the surprise?" Zhang Yan asked.

"Don't worry about it. By the way, there's no news about your old man?" Li Hai suddenly changed the subject.

Zhang Yan didn't say a word and fell silent.

"Hey!" Li Hai stopped talking when he saw this.

In fact, today is Zhang Yan’s 16th birthday. Two years ago, he was still a child doted on by his parents.On his birthday, his mother will cook a table of delicious food, and his father will grant him a wish, such as the latest PSP.

At that time, he was in the second grade of junior high school and was in the prime of puberty. His face was full of acne, he was dissatisfied with everything, and he didn't look good to his parents every day.But in a caring home, I didn't do too many extravagant things, and my grades were passable, ranking among the top five in key classes in key middle schools.

He thought he would live like this for the rest of his life. Who would have thought that within one year, the love and care he didn't care about would suddenly disappear.On my birthday in the third grade of junior high school, I ate a bowl of noodles that I had cooked by myself at home. The egg heart on top was not cooked yet. When I ate it, the egg yolk flowed all over the bowl. The thick yellow soup accompanied the noodles with no water. Salt.As he ate, he suddenly tasted saltiness...

If I hadn't given up studying in the third grade of junior high school and failed to pass the high school entrance examination, my mother would not have rushed back from thousands of miles away.He doesn't know how to live his life?My mother begged for this school and spent a lot of money on it.

After completing all the formalities, I checked in by myself, turned around and left again. It was really uncomfortable to stay in that cold home, so we simply checked in together.Today is not the weekend. It seems that this birthday will be celebrated at school. No one cares anyway, so it doesn't matter.

Zhang Yan shook his head and ran to the gathering team.

The evening self-study in the No. 18 Affiliated Middle School starts at 50:45, with one section lasting 20 minutes, and all students attend two sections. Day students leave school at 30:20, and boarding students then attend three nights of one-hour self-study from 40:21 to 40:[-].In the first two periods, teachers come to the class for tutoring. In the third period, there is usually a teacher patrolling one floor. After checking people at the beginning, they basically go back to the office to rest.

After the teacher on duty during the self-study class that evening finished checking the people and left, Li Hai quietly walked to the back door and looked outside.He turned around and gestured to Chen Yisi, who was sitting in front, and they both turned off the classroom lights at the same time.

The room suddenly became dark, and everyone was a little surprised. Someone opened his mouth and cursed: "Li Hai, where is your grandson having a seizure? Turn on the light."

Zhang Yan didn't say anything. Li Hai has been like this since he was a child. He often gets mad and annoys people. The best way to deal with it is to ignore him. The more he follows him, the crazier he gets.

At this moment, someone on the podium lit a lighter.Under the swaying warm yellow firelight, a girl slowly walked up to Zhang Yan from the front holding a birthday cake.

Everyone fell silent, and Zhang Yan looked at the girl's face reflected in the candlelight.This is Sun Xiaolei?The candlelight is very soft, reflecting the crystal clear young skin, and the shining star eyes are hidden under the long eyelashes.She was a little shy and put the birthday cake on Zhang Yan's table. She straightened up and looked at him intently and said, "Happy birthday, Zhang Yan." After saying that, she looked at him nervously and twisted her hands together unconsciously.

Zhang Yan lowered his head and looked at the birthday cake. It was his favorite fruit and milk cake. There was a small sign with the three letters ILY on it. He understood it immediately.His heart warmed, and he knew that this girl must have done her homework before. For more than a year, someone was willing to put so much effort into finding someone he likes. Plus, she was the most beautiful girl in the class. He couldn't say he was not attracted to her.

He raised his head and looked at this girl who could hardly hide her beauty even in her baggy school uniform.She smiled and said, "Thank you!" In her surprised eyes, she turned her head, closed her eyes, made a wish, and blew out the candles.

Seeing this, Li Hai signaled Chen Yisi to turn on the light.He came over jokingly and joked, "What's up, birthday boy, are you happy? Are you surprised?"

Zhang Yan looked at him, grabbed a piece of cream and spread it on Li Hai's face.

"WC, I won't kill you." Li Hai grabbed the cake and threw it at him, while Chen Yisi also shouted and joined the fight.The students in the class laughed loudly, and for a moment, it was a mess.During the commotion, the front door opened with a bang, and everyone was stunned.With a dark face, Lao Ma took a clear look at the situation in the class and pointed at the people who were leading the trouble. "You came to the Moral Education Department with me, you are going against the grain."

Li Hai stuck out his tongue and said, "Unlucky, how can I catch Lao Ma on duty today?" Several people followed Lao Ma downstairs with their heads down and their faces covered in cream. They stood at the door of the Moral Education Department and listened to Lao Ma beating in the room. Telephone. "In early summer, if you are not in school, come to the Moral Education Department."

Zhang Yan stood at the door, listening to what was going on inside.

"Is there something going on at home? Okay, I'll see you over tomorrow morning." Lao Ma hung up the phone angrily.

A few people were called in and had a scolding meal. After contacting their parents, they signed the record of violation of discipline.The old horse looked at the faces of a few people as if they were singing an opera, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Go back and write a checkup and send it to the Moral Education Department tomorrow morning to wait for follow-up opinions." Lao Ma said with a dark face.
