At 9 a.m. on July 20, at the gate of Lingshui County No. 1 Middle School.

Xiao Ran stood in front of the gate of No. 1 Middle School, looking at the once glorious school in Lingshui County.

Lingshui County No. 1 Middle School was glorious 20 years ago, when the No. 1 Middle School had students admitted to Huaqing University and Yenching University every year, and it cultivated a provincial liberal arts champion, which made Lingshui County No. 1 Middle School famous, even the province's famous schools also arranged teachers to come to exchange and study.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and the county zf of Lingshui County at that time felt that the feng shui of Lingshui No. 1 Middle School was good, so Lingshui No. 1 Middle School was relocated to the current place, and the original site of No. 1 became the current county zf.

After the relocation of Lingshui County No. 1 Middle School, sure enough, every year was not as good as a year, good teachers were poached, and good students began to flow out, resulting in more than ten years, Lingshui County has not produced a single student from Yan University and Huaqing.

It's not the first time Xiao Ran has come to No. 1 Middle School, when he was in school before, Xiao Ran participated in several discipline competitions, and No. 1 Middle School was the examination room?

Cleaning up his mood, Xiao Ran came to the examination room, and when he walked into the classroom, there were already a lot of teachers who had applied for the job, most of them were students who had just graduated this year, and only a few of them looked older, probably from the past, or those who changed careers halfway like Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran found his place and sat down, the front row was a girl with glasses, and the back row was a tall boy, both of them were playing with their mobile phones intently, and they were also indifferent to Xiao Ran's arrival.

After many years, when I came to the examination room again, it was obvious that there was no tension in the previous examination room, and there was no such hustle and bustle of high-minded talk, everyone was silently playing with their mobile phones and did not communicate with each other.

It didn't take long for two middle-aged teachers, a man and a woman, to walk in.

"The exam will last from 9:30 to 11:30 and will last for 2 hours. The male invigilator said to everyone.

Another female teacher began to distribute the test papers according to the admission card numbers of the applicants.

Xiao Ran got two test papers, one mathematics test paper and one educational psychology test paper. After reading it casually, Xiao Ran already knew it by heart, the mathematics problems were very basic, but the depth was deep, and the educational psychology was mainly an educational case analysis.

In less than an hour, Xiao Ran had already completed two test papers, and after checking that there were no omissions, Xiao Ran got up and handed in the papers.

This level of exam is really nothing to Xiao Ran, not to mention that he has awakened the teacher system now, even if there is no teacher system, Xiao Ran used to be a top student, and most of the teachers sitting here for the exam are graduates of some secondary colleges, compared to Xiao Ran, it is not a grade.

In the office of the first high school and high school, a group of teachers from various schools are busy correcting the test papers.

"Lao Zhou, do you have any good seedlings for the new teacher this year?" a middle-aged man who was nearly 50 years old walked in and asked a middle-aged man with a big belly and a leader.

"A couple are ok. Zhou Zhihai said in a deep voice.

"Old Zhou, why do you feel that you are not very interested?" Guo Tongjun said with a puzzled expression.

"Xiao Ran is back!" Zhou Zhihai was silent for a while, and said in a calm tone.

After finishing speaking, he handed the materials in his hand and the two revised test papers to Guo Tongjun.

"Which Xiao Ran?" Guo Tongjun took it stunned and asked with a confused expression.

"Which one else could be, that is. Zhou Zhihai said.

"Is it Xiao Ran back then? No wonder you have a weird expression, it turned out to be him!" Guo Tongjun said suddenly.

"Back then, this kid was the most likely student in our county to be admitted to Huaqing Yan University, and the teachers in the school were paying attention to him, but I didn't expect to fall off the chain in the end. Guo Tongjun said indignantly.

Even though ten years have passed since this incident, Guo Tongjun still feels very sorry and angry.

"You were admitted to the fifth middle school later, I taught in the fifth middle school at the beginning, I knew Xiao Ran when he first entered junior high school, and I also taught junior high school physics. Zhou Zhihai recalled.

"Although this kid's performance in junior high school is also good, it can only be regarded as above average, and his performance in the first semester of high school is average, and he began to break out in high school, and he sang all the way in the second year of high school, which was unstoppable, shocking the teachers and students of the entire school. Zhou Zhihai recalled the scene at that time, and his heart was still agitated.

"I thought that this kid would be able to break the record that there have been no Hua Qingyan college students in Lingshui County for more than ten years, but I didn't expect ......" Zhou Zhihai shook his head and did not continue.

"150 in mathematics, 150 in educational psychology, this score is better than in high school!" Guo Tongjun glanced at the test paper in his hand, it was Xiao Ran's test paper, and now it has been corrected.

"Old Zhou, it's been so many years since those things, why can't you let go of them?" Guo Tongjun comforted.

"Do I care about this? I feel bad that this kid hasn't contacted me for ten years, and he won't come back to visit me as a teacher. Zhou Zhihai said angrily.

"He probably doesn't have the face to see you. As if thinking of something, Guo Tongjun said with a serious face.

"Maybe!" Zhou Zhihai sighed.

"I just don't know which middle school this kid plans to teach at. Guo Tongjun said thoughtfully.

"Based on what I know about him, he probably chooses to go to No. 5 Middle School. On the one hand, you and I have left the fifth middle school, as well as Principal Zhao Chuan, and other teachers, basically left, there are few people left, he will not face these former teachers when he goes to the fifth middle school; on the other hand, the fifth middle school is his alma mater, and his feelings for the fifth middle school are still very deep, and going to the fifth middle school can be regarded as repaying the kindness of his alma mater. Zhou Zhihai analyzed.

"Then you don't want to ask him to stay in No. 2 Middle School? You are now in charge of teaching in No. 2 Middle School, and recruiting a potential teacher can be regarded as a political achievement. If you were to say it, he would definitely stay in No. 2 Middle School. Guo Tongjun asked.

"Just because you do well in the exam doesn't mean that you can teach well, you can be where he wants. Zhou Zhihai said.

"Also, now everyone is so pressed by Yucai that they can't raise their heads, and it doesn't matter if there is more of him and less of him. Guo Tongjun agreed.

In the next two days, Xiao Ran would practice the teacher's physical exercise twice a day, and the rest of the time was to go to various places to trace the memories of his middle school days.

On July 22, the Lingshui County Education website announced the results of the written examination for teacher recruitment, and Xiao Ran won the first place with a perfect score of 300 points, while the second place was only 220 points.

At the same time, the website of the county education bureau also announced the 50 teachers and corresponding schools who were hired, and Xiao Ran was naturally hired by Lingshui County No. 5 Middle School, and the entry time was July 23.
