Hello 1983

  Chapter 48 Hello, Teacher!

   When it was almost dinner time, everyone dispersed, and the house was finally clean.

  In addition to the matter of building a pig farm, we also discussed the matter of the village primary school.

   Now that there are supporting teachers, three rooms in the original production team will be vacated as temporary classrooms.

   What's more, the new teacher arranged to live and eat at the old man Liu Shikui's house, which happened to be the old couple, which was more suitable.

  Seeing off the guests, Liu Qingshan saw his eldest brother-in-law come out of the warehouse, holding a stack of manuscript paper in his hand.

   This is also the habit of Gao Wenxue. When there are too many people in the family, he will take the initiative to create in the warehouse to avoid interference.

  Liu Qingshan said hello: "Brother-in-law, I have two letters from you, and I brought them back."

  Gao Xuexue pushed his glasses and nodded: "I've finished writing Shan Xing's novel, please look back and give me your opinion."

   "But, the next novel, I don't know what to write?"

The two chatted while walking, and when they entered the house, Liu Qingshan said: "Brother-in-law, the whole country, from rural areas to cities, is promoting reform and opening up. Novels in this area should have a bright future. I heard that Lu Yao is preparing to A big tome is called "The Ordinary World."

   "Sanfenger, I think so too."

  Gao Wenxue nodded, then scratched his head: "I don't know what the outside world has become in the past two years."

  This is a problem. Writers have to go out to collect stories on a regular basis. If they blindly work behind closed doors, their achievements must be limited.

   It stands to reason that the elder brother-in-law should be asked to go out for a walk, but now I really don't have this spare money.

   After pondering for a while, Liu Qingshan said: "Brother-in-law, wait for a few months. After our greenhouse vegetables are sold for money, you can go to Chuncheng Automobile Factory to stay for a while to accumulate writing materials."

  Gao Wenxue picked up the letter on the cabinet cover and said, "Sanfeng'er, you don't need to travel that far. Isn't the current change in our village the best material?"

  Yes, the writer's vision is keen.

  Liu Qingshan gave Gao Wenxue a thumbs up, and then saw the eldest brother-in-law stuff a letter into his hand: "This is yours."

  Almost forgot, there is still a letter from me.

  Liu Qingshan tore open the envelope, took out two pages of manuscript paper, glanced at the handwriting on it first, and couldn't help smacking his lips: "This Brother Fei's handwriting is really delicate, why does it look like a girl?"

  Looking at the signature again, Liu Qingshan couldn't help being taken aback, she really is a girl, who is this "Li Xuemei"?

  Thinking about it, Li Xuemei, isn’t that the female nurse who likes to stare at people with big eyes, what kind of letter did she write to me?

  With doubts, Liu Qingshan began to read the letter. At first, it was called "Comrade Liu Qingshan", which was very formal.

   After reading the letter quickly, he put down the letter paper, with a strange expression on his face.

  In the letter, Li Xuemei said that after learning about Liu Qingshan's deeds, she was greatly touched and decided to learn from Liu Qingshan. While she was young, she worked hard to learn foreign languages ​​and become a translator in the future.

  As for the correspondence address, I got it from Brother Fei and the others.

   In addition, it was also mentioned in the letter that Mr. Thomas has also returned to China, and I heard that he went back to develop new models or something.

   Unexpectedly, absolutely unexpected, I became a role model for others to learn from without paying attention.

  Liu Qingshan was somewhat happy in his heart, after all enjoying the admiration of others, this feeling is still very wonderful.

  So, he took up a pen and wrote a reply letter: Comrade Li Xuemei, hello...

  This letter is of course mainly about encouragement. By the way, I will introduce the method of learning a foreign language so that the other party will not take a detour.

   Finally, I mentioned it by the way, hoping that she can urge Brother Fei, Gangzi and others to learn Russian together, which may make a lot of difference in the future.

   He wrote three pages profusely, and he didn't finish until the fourth child greeted him for dinner. He will send it to Li Xuemei when he goes to the commune.

  Dinner is boiled corn porridge and eggplant sauce. Because meat oil was put in the fryer, the eggplant sauce is quite fragrant.

  Liu Qingshan was really hungry, so Hululu picked up a big bowl of porridge, and was about to serve it again, when he saw the door of the room was pushed open, and several children came in.

  The leader of the four tigers held a small broken basin in their hands. Most of the basin contained crimson earthworms. The four tigers still asked expectantly:

   "Brother Qingshan, do you still accept crickets?"

   "Take it, of course I take it, where did you dig it, so much?"

  Liu Qingshan filled another big bowl of corn porridge, this stuff can't stop hunger, after eating it and running around twice, his stomach was empty again.

  Er Mangzi rushed to report: "No need to dig. It's raining these days, and the earthworms have come out. You can catch them by just grabbing."

   Damn it!

  Liu Qingshan slapped his thigh vigorously, and ran to the backyard quickly, ignoring his meal.

  He forgot about this. Although earthworms like dark and humid environments, they should not be too wet, otherwise, they will not be able to breathe in the soil.

  The earthworms in my two pools must have been soaked long ago, and the earthworms couldn’t climb up in the pools, so they must all be soaked to death!

   "Sanfenger, come back, the pond for raising earthworms has already been covered for you!"

   It was the older sister who knew him well, and Liu Qingshan stopped after a shout.

  However, he still decided to go and have a look, and by the way, he also sprinkled the newly caught earthworms inside.

   When I went to the back garden, I saw that the two ponds for raising earthworms were indeed covered with plastic sheets to protect them from the rain.

  As for the ones that have not been dug, they have become pools of water, and it is estimated that fish farming is just right.

After throwing a few pots of earthworms into it, Liu Qingshan went back to the room cheerfully, and said solemnly: "Today, I would like to offer verbal praise to Comrade Liu Jinfeng. .”

  The group of snot-nosed kids in the room were also giggling. Liu Qingshan remembered that he hadn't exchanged candy for others yet. The most important thing is that he has no candy. How about credit first?

  If you do this, the children will not be motivated enough.

Just thinking about it, I saw Caifeng and Shanxing took out a paper bag from their pockets, and then pulled out a small green slice, and the fourth child said: "Take this for earthworms, it's called chewing gum, it's delicious. .”

   Isn't this the Green Arrow?

  Liu Qingshan blinked his eyes twice, and then he figured it out. It is probably Teacher Yang who rewarded the two little girls.

   This stuff is not easy to get now, only a few big cities can sell it, and it is only in the kind of stores that specialize in foreign affairs.

   Each of these children received a piece of chewing gum, peeled off the outer sugar wrapper, and stuffed it into their mouths to chew.

   "Hey, it's still a cool breeze, it's delicious, it's delicious!"

  Si Huzi praised it greatly.

  At this time, the fourth child remembered something, and said in his mouth: "By the way, this kind of candy should be spit out after chewing. It is Teacher Yang who said."

   "What a waste of throwing up!"

   "I swallowed just now!"

  …

  That night, Liu Jinfeng took a new set of quilts, went to her grandfather's house, and made them for Yang Hongying. When she came back, she brought back two boxes of malted milk.

   Malted milk extract, in this era, is considered a high-end nutritional product.

  Liu Jinfeng happily made two bowls, one for Sifeng and Wufeng, and she shared the other with Lin Zhi.

   "Sister, where's mine and brother-in-law's?"

  Liu Qingshan was not very satisfied. It wasn’t that he was greedy for a sip. The main reason was that there was such a big difference in treatment and no human rights.

   "Big man, what malted milk to drink."

  Liu Jinfeng was nagging, but still picked up the jar of malted milk, ready to make a bowl for them to taste.

   "Sister, I'm just joking, I'll let you drink slowly."

  Liu Qingshan snatched it in the past, and put the jar back on the cabinet lid, but the elder sister gave him a white look: "You just like to make trouble."

   "Brother, try ours, it's sweet."

  Little Caifeng waved her little hands. In this era, sweets are the best things.

  Liu Qingshan leaned forward, Shan Xing handed him the small iron spoon, Liu Qingshan scooped a spoonful of air from the top of the bowl, stuffed it into his mouth, and smacked his lips: "Well, it's delicious."

   The two little girls giggled, each took a spoonful, and forcefully poured it into his brother's mouth.

   "It's so sweet!"

  Liu Qingshan praised it. I don’t know if it’s the sweetness of malted milk or this feeling.

  …

  The next day, Liu Qingshan was having breakfast, when he heard someone yelling outside: "Every household pay attention, today our Jiapigou Village Primary School officially starts school, and those who have children at home, move a bench to the brigade!"

  Jiapigou is really miserable, there is not even a big speaker.

   "Go to school, go to school!"

   The two little girls cheered and were about to get off the ground to carry their schoolbags, but they were grabbed by Lin Zhi and Liu Jinfeng respectively: You have to eat enough to go to school.

   Soon, the two little guys finished their meal wheezing, and put on their brand new pink schoolbags. They liked the schoolbags and stationery bought by their brother to death.

  Liu Qingshan also carried a long bench at home, and followed.

  He was too tired yesterday, so he went to bed early, and the captain and the others tried to clean up the classroom, so he didn't go to work with him.

  It is still cloudy outside, and it rains intermittently. It seems that this year's wheat is completely ruined.

  On the way, I saw little kids in twos and threes, most of them were holding a bench by themselves, and ran to the temporary school.

   After arriving at the production team, Liu Qingshan went into the classroom and took a look: Good guy, it really looks like that.

   There is an old desk in the front, which is the lecture table.

  The more Liu Qingshan looked at it, the more familiar it became: Isn’t this the old antique that the old branch secretary used for decades? It’s all sold out?

  In the classroom, there are three rows of seats, the bottom is built with adobe, and then a newly planed wooden board is placed across it, which is regarded as a desk.

   Coupled with the built-in bench, at least I can sit here and study.

   Don’t be afraid of difficult conditions, and you can gradually improve in the future. Students from poor families should still study hard and make progress every day.

  Liu Qingshan secretly made up his mind: once the greenhouse has paid for it, he must buy a batch of tables and chairs first.

   Not long after, Yang Hongying leaned on a wooden stick, entered the classroom bit by bit, and glanced at the twenty or so little dolls sitting neatly, her heart was suddenly filled like never before.

"Hello teacher!"

  Xiao Caifeng took the lead and stood up, leading the little dolls to shout loudly, the little one is going to exercise the right of the big squad leader in advance.

   It made Liu Qingshan almost shout out, his identity is actually a student.

   "Hello students, please sit down."

  Yang Hongying had a bright smile on her face, feeling that all her efforts were worth it.

Wow!

  Outside the classroom, there was a heart-piercing cry: "I don't go to school, I don't want to go to school."

  There are all kinds of children, some are willing to go to school, and some are afraid of going to school.

  Yang Hongying also leaned on a stick and went out to check. As a result, the second son on the ground rolled hard, and even his old mother beat and scolded him, but it didn't work. His old mother wiped tears in anger.

   "Sister-in-law, leave it to me."

  Yang Hongying lightly tapped Ermao with the stick in her hand, and said loudly:

   "If you don't go to school, you'll have to farm for a lifetime when you grow up. Do you still want to go to Tiananmen Square in the future?"

   "Also, you don't go to school, other friends are in school, no one will play with you in the future!"

   These two sentences are still very lethal. Er Mangzi got up, patted the dirt on his body, squeaked, and got into the classroom.

  Liu Qingshan was also very happy to watch: This teacher Yang is quite amazing.

   Just thinking about it, I heard the voice of Teacher Yang: "There is also that student Liu Qingshan, if you also want to start studying from the first grade of elementary school, I welcome it."

  Amidst the laughter of the children, Liu Qingshan walked out of the classroom embarrassingly.

  ————

A friend asked about adding updates. As I said before, during the period of the new book, if there are 100 rewards per week, one will be added. If the monthly ticket reaches 1,000, it will be renewed once, and if the monthly pass exceeds 500, it will be renewed once. There are enough manuscripts, and everyone is welcome to explode!
