Rebirth of the 80s

Chapter 154 [No.166] Unity, friendship and advanced students

Old man Zhou felt that the question Xie Wenjun mentioned seemed to be true, so he said, "You mean that their parents don't pay for living expenses at all, and just throw their children here and let them go?"

Xie Wenjun said vaguely, "Yes and no."

Old man Zhou opened the cooling oil and took a deep breath: "What is and what is not, I don't understand."

Xie Wenjun smiled and said, "Principal, have you ever heard of stocking?"

"Free...free range?" Old man Zhou was secretly amused. Didn't your Xie Wenjun's parents adopt this kind of free-range policy for you, so he asked with a smile, "Like you?"

"Uh... no, the other kind," Xie Wenjun didn't expect the old man Zhou to bring this matter to himself, so he explained, "I think this kind of mental restocking is what I mean. stocking."

"Material stocking?" Old man Zhou frowned, "Leave the children alone like cattle and sheep. There is porridge and porridge and rice to eat. They are raised by nature, and whether they can be raised depends entirely on nature."

Xie Wenjun nodded: "That's it. Families like this are rare in cities, except for some migrant workers in urban villages, but in those remote and poor areas, almost all children are raised in this way. I don't think about whether I have financial conditions, let alone take care of the national family planning policy. As long as I have it, I will give birth, and I don't care about it. I just let my children grow up. You said that children in such a family have a chance Come to a big city to go to school, can they be willing? They are free-range in their hometown, and they are also free-range if they are thrown in a big city. Of course, they choose to throw their children in a big city. As for whether they can eat enough and wear warm clothes, it is not their responsibility as parents. , but depends on the child's own good fortune."

The old man Zhou sighed: "That is to say, throw the child here and leave it alone, and never pay a penny for living expenses, alas."

Xie Wenjun shook his head: "That's not exactly the case. Their parents will give some living expenses, but it's definitely not enough. Their economic conditions are so backward, how much can they give, and the transportation is inconvenient, and the information is blocked. It's not easy for everyone. How can you know what kind of consumption level Linxi is? Even if you give the child 50 yuan, you think you can live in Linxi for at least a month. Therefore, the life of these poor students is not life, but life. It is a basic survival problem, which must be solved by our school, otherwise they will not even be able to guarantee their basic survival. Why would they even talk about coming to a big city to learn and gain knowledge? What's more, the school didn't even help them solve the most basic living problems, so you let them leave their homes and come to Linxi to live?"

"It's not that we can't solve it. The school doesn't have a dormitory. How can we solve it?" Old man Zhou thought for a while. "There are only a few students who come this time. They all have fellow villagers in Linxi. Their parents said they should live there for the time being." .”

Xie Wenjun said helplessly: "My fellow villagers, they are not big money, they are all farmers who have migrated to the city to work. They can't even guarantee their own lives, so how can they take care of them?"

Old man Zhou understands this matter, and he also knows that it is not appropriate for students to live with their so-called fellow villagers, but the school really has no way to solve their housing problem at present, so it has to do so for the time being, so he said: "This matter is for the time being. , Wait until I find someone to find a way to free up a few classrooms as their temporary dormitory."

Living in a school is much better than a cramped work shed. This is a good way to solve the housing problem. Xie Wenjun said with a smile: "Then what about eating, I have to pay for food, and I usually buy some school supplies, daily necessities, etc. There must be... some blood in the school, hehe."

Old man Zhou shook his head helplessly. The housing problem can be solved by finding a few classrooms, but you have to spend money to eat and buy things. Didn’t the idea of ​​paying part of the living expenses of the paired students come to naught before? Now it seems that they have to pay the full amount. I don’t know where to squeeze the money for part of the burden. Isn’t the full burden even more troublesome.

Originally, it would not cost a lot of money to solve the survival problem of a few poor students, but it is not easy to solve it. Every penny of the school's funds is earmarked for special purposes. Now if you want to allocate a separate sum of money To solve the problems of students eating and shopping, etc., how easy is it, where can it be squeezed?

Old man Zhou pondered for a long time before saying: "This matter really needs to be resolved. Let me think about it and see where I can find some funds."

"Think about it?" Xie Wenjun smiled, "Why are leaders like this? They are not decisive at all. It can be said that it is arbitrary to make an immediate decision on something that does not make sense, but it is obviously hesitant to do what should be done. It is ugly. It’s just that you don’t care, and it’s even worse that you’re irresponsible. Why can’t you put yourself in the shoes of poor students and think about the problem? What seems small to you is a big thing that is closely related to survival in their eyes. You... "

Old man Zhou quickly interrupted: "I didn't say it's a trivial matter, I said it would be resolved, but I have to think about it."

"Think about it..." Xie Wenjun almost blurted out the word "fart", "You can think about it, everyone can think about it, but can the stomachs of poor students think about it? It happened today that a classmate passed out without food. What about tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?"

What Xie Wenjun said made sense, but old man Zhou couldn't find anything to refute, so he said, "Then what do you think should be done?"

"If you want me to say that this sum of money has to be squeezed out tomorrow morning at the latest, people have to eat at noon tomorrow," Xie Wenjun shook his head, "but it's best to take out this sum of money now and send it to Poor students, hurry up and take it before the bank closes."

"Nonsense!" Old man Zhou slapped the table, "Every school fund is for a special purpose, so you can take whatever you want."

"Principal, calm down," Xie Wenjun smiled, "Is there any money in the school account?"

Old man Zhou calmed down his anger: "So what, it's said that school funds should be earmarked."

"That's enough," Xie Wenjun asked again, "Is it imminent to solve the survival problem of poor students?"

"Uh..." Old man Zhou thought for a while, "That's right."

Xie Wenjun nodded: "Since there is money in the school's account and it is imminent to solve the survival problem of poor students, why can't we send this money to the students first? Anyway, you have said that you will solve this matter. Wouldn't it be over if I settled this account again, can things be changed like this?"

Old man Zhou shook his head and smiled wryly: "Are you asking me to make fake accounts?"

"I can't talk about it, it's just a matter of flexibility," Xie Wenjun smiled, "First send the money to the poor students to solve practical problems, and then deal with the procedural matters after finishing, can't it?"

"I don't have any money for dinner, so I will steal your money and use it first, and then I will quietly pay you back when I have money. Are you willing? Isn't it against the law?" Old man Zhou immediately gave a suitable example.

"As long as you steal it, I will pay it back, I am willing, as long as you do it without anyone noticing it, and you will not break the law." Xie Wenjun began to make excuses like a rascal.

Old man Zhou snorted coldly: "You are lying."

"Correct reasoning is also reasonable," Xie Wenjun said with a smile, "as long as it works."

Old man Zhou shook his head: "No, how can I use the school's money without any formalities."

"Don't use the word 'private', okay? You're not doing it for your own benefit." Xie Wenjun continued to persuade.

"Then... that won't work either," the old man Zhou said firmly, "This is a matter of principle."

What nonsense principles, is it important for poor students to eat? Xie Wenjun began to sneer: "Okay, it's good to talk about principles, and it's good to talk about principles. What about pairing and helping to create a good educational environment for students in mountainous areas? Money makes people feel tired when they are full. Forget it, some people will only do superficial work forever, but push back and forth when they actually need him to do something. It seems that the fifth student in our class will faint from hunger tomorrow. Oh, poor thing, maybe students in other classes will also faint tomorrow, I think we should hold a fainting meeting in the school tomorrow, and see whoever faints the most times will be the champion, or find a few reporters to interview and show it on TV The news is not bad either, Second Middle School is now famous again, tsk tsk, that's great..."

Old man Zhou smeared cool oil on his forehead over and over again, and listened to Xie Wenjun's scolding patiently, until Xie Wenjun stopped on his own initiative, and then said: "Are you finished?"

"No," Xie Wenjun took a paper cup and took a glass of pure water from Linxi Mountain Spring. "My mouth is dry. Continue talking after drinking the water."

"Okay, okay," Old Man Zhou smiled wryly, "Needless to say, isn't your purpose just to get me out of the money as soon as possible? Three days, within three days, you must send the money to your classmates." Come on, that's all right."

Xie Wenjun laughed loudly: "The principal is wise."

Xie Wenjun is pressing every step of the way because he is afraid that old man Zhou will be endless once he thinks about this matter. He will drag it on for ten days and a half months. Procrastination is a common problem of all Chinese leaders. It's only a matter of ten days and a half a month to save face, otherwise it's not uncommon to drag on endlessly.

Now the old man Zhou personally promised that it will be done within three days, of course it is OK. As for Xie Wenjun asking him to take out the money today, it is just a pressing condition. Just talk about it. You won't be really hungry if you only eat baked potatoes for three days, you can survive it.

Old man Zhou smiled and said, "Do you praise Yingming because I am really wise, or because I can see your thoughts."

Xie Wenjun shook his head: "None."

"Huh?" Old man Zhou was very surprised. He didn't have anything else to do to make this man a smart student, so he asked, "Then... what other reasons are there?"

"Uh..." Xie Wenjun couldn't help laughing when he saw the seriousness of old man Zhou, "There is no reason, it's just flattery, if you think it's not enough, I can add a few more sentences, I have so many words and sentences in my stomach , come at your fingertips."

"You..." Old man Zhou patted the table again, laughing loudly.

Old man Zhou kept his word, and he was not sloppy at all. He said that three days would be three days. It was sent out once every ten days. As for the study utensils and daily necessities, Mr. Zhou specially asked a few student officers from the student office to help these students buy them all, so that they could come and pick them up when they ran out.

The unexpected move of the No. [-] Middle School to provide enough food expenses for the paired students to have enough food has already excited them enough. Unexpectedly, Principal Zhou would find someone to vacate some unused classrooms and bought I bought a cabinet for the bed and used it as a dormitory for them. This was something they never thought of before they came to Linxi.

The "full amount" of living expenses for the paired-up students was squeezed out by old man Zhou from the unique benefits of all the school's faculty and staff, from the popsicle fee in summer and the firewood fee in winter. This special benefit was "deprived" because the cost of this benefit for all the faculty and staff was just enough to maintain the "full" living expenses of these paired students.

There is no other way for old man Zhou to do this. The school’s other funds are all prepared to be spent on the knife edge and used where it should be used. If a part is squeezed out, it will inevitably affect the quality of teaching, and affecting the quality of teaching will inevitably affect the students, so this The old man Zhou was unwilling to do this, so he had to take the lead in proposing to "donate" this dispensable welfare for the faculty and staff. The welfare was given up to make up the "full" living expenses for the pair-assisted students.

After Xie Wenjun knew about this, he asked his father Xie Qingqiang to provide this benefit to the teaching staff of No. [-] Middle School every month. In summer, he would provide the teaching staff with Linxi Spring beverage products, and in winter, he would buy some other products for the teaching staff separately. In this way, although the original cash welfare of the teaching staff of No. [-] Middle School has become a kind of welfare, the actual calculation is much higher than the previous welfare. Old man Zhou is a little puzzled by what Xie Wenjun did. , Later, I kept asking Xie Wenjun why, in this case, why did Linxishan Spring Water Factory not directly provide help to the poor students who were paired up, but beat around the bush in such a big circle.

Xie Wenjun just said that the nature is different, without explaining the specifics. In fact, he felt that since the school did the pairing support, the school had the responsibility and obligation to do things well, including solving the survival problems of poor students. Similarly, you can't sell dog meat on a sheep's pedestal. As for Xie Wenjun asking Linxi Spring to continue to provide benefits for the teachers and staff of No. [-] Middle School, that is to solve the actual difficulties of the school, which has become another matter. A matter of principle on the lips.

Old man Zhou never stopped doing two things. This time, he not only completely solved the practical difficulties of pairing up and helping classmates, but also praised Xie Wenjun in front of the whole school assembly, saying that the reason why the school made this decision was entirely facilitated by Xie Wenjun. Yes, let the students learn more from Xie Wenjun in the future and care about the students in difficulties.

Old man Zhou has always been an educator. His purpose of doing this is also to promote the spirit of unity and friendship among classmates, and he even got a certificate of "advanced students in unity and friendship" to be presented in public. Xie Wenjun had no mental preparation before. I didn't know that old man Zhou would suddenly praise and award certificates in front of the whole school. After he got on stage, he blushed and shyly said a few innocuous words to the whole school, and then took the opportunity to start a targeted campaign against the school. The "impromptu speech" of opinions and suggestions, the content is full of firepower, the applause and cheers of the students in the audience are loud and loud, and the old man Zhou shakes his head while applying balm. Problem students are problem students. No matter what time and occasion, you can find them opportunity to create problems.

This group of paired students came to Linxi No. 20 Middle School with the mentality of enduring hardships and learning knowledge. The fifth student is the one with the most difficult family financial conditions among them. This time he came to Linxi to go to school and gave him [-]. Yuan money and a bag of potatoes, his father asked him to hold on to this bag of potatoes for a while, saying that No. [-] Middle School promised to give part of the living expenses to the students who were paired with each other, let him stay until the living expenses were paid, and then save some money, insist on Finish high school.

After the fifth student came to Linxi, he lived with a distant relative in the shed at the Linxi Times Square construction site. He originally planned to have two potatoes at noon and two potatoes at night to carry over the difficult life in the beginning period. Xie Wenjun played the spirit of unity and friendship to make the school completely solve his life problems, and Xie Wenjun's father also donated money for the bridge construction in his hometown, so he is sincerely grateful to Xie Wenjun.

The fifth student who knows how to repay Xie Wenjun wants to thank and repay Xie Wenjun, but he doesn't know what he can do as a poor student. Remembering that Xie Wenjun likes to eat baked potatoes, his own food problem has also been solved, so he put the rest Most of the bag of potatoes was brought to the school, and Xie Wenjun wanted to accept it. This was the kindness of the fifth student. Xie Wenjun couldn't refuse, so he had to carry the most of the bag of potatoes back home dumbfounded.

Since Xie Wenjun brought home half the bag of "Grateful Potatoes", Cao Yunfang has played tricks on the potatoes, and she didn't bother to buy vegetables. Every day, there is a whole table of "Potato Feast", such as braised potato cubes, stir-fried potatoes, etc. Potato shreds, green pepper potato shreds, potato sauerkraut soup, fried potato chips, stir-fried mashed potatoes...

In short, Xie Wenjun sees potatoes every day and eats potatoes every day, so he no longer thinks that baked potatoes are the best food in the world. Compared with delicacies from mountains and seas, there is still a certain difference between baked potatoes, no, there is still a very obvious difference .
