"Hello, I'm the teacher here, is there something wrong?" The young teacher walked up to Zhang Kun, and his face, which had been blown by the wind and sand all the year round, showed a slight smile.

"If you're tired from the road, you can come in and take a break, by the way, it's noon, I don't know if you have eaten, if not, we still have some porridge here." ”

When it came to porridge, the young teacher's face turned slightly red, and then he quickly explained: "I'm sorry, we only have porridge here, if you don't dislike it, I'll help you serve it?"

Looking at the young teacher's pale yellow cheeks, the warm invitation, and the shy smile when talking about porridge, Zhang Kun took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress the sourness in his heart and shook his head.

"May I ask if there used to be a guy named Huangshi here? He has something for me to send back!"

"Huang Shikai?" the young teacher was stunned for a moment, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

"Is it Huang Shikai?"

"That guy, I knew that he definitely didn't run away as others said, he would definitely come back. The young teacher said excitedly.

"That guy, leave a sentence to make money to buy desks and school bags for the children and leave, leaving the whole school to me alone, really. ”

"Some nasty guys, saying he couldn't stand it and ran away. Cut, I'll just say, Huang Shikai is not that kind of person, he will definitely come back, I have always believed it!" the young teacher said with great certainty, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became.

However, he didn't see Zhang Kun slowly lowering his head, and his eyes were red and swollen little by little.

Desperately trying to make money, do you want to buy desks and school bags for children?

"He's not coming back!" Zhang Kun said in a low voice, his head lowered.

The young teacher was stunned: "You, what did you say?"

Zhang Kun took out the newspaper he kept with his left hand heavily, and then handed it to the young teacher opposite.

The young teacher took the newspaper handed over by Zhang Kun in a daze, and as soon as he looked down, he saw the photo at the top of the newspaper and the title at a glance.

"The old man fell into the water, and the young man sacrificed himself to save others!"

The young teacher was completely stunned, he stared blankly at the photos in the newspaper, and the atmosphere froze for a while.

Zhang Kun raised his head and said in a low voice: "I came this time to send back some of his relics!"

The young teacher didn't seem to hear Zhang Kun's words, he stared blankly at the newspaper, the familiar photos, but, sacrificing himself to save others?

Self-denial?

The young teacher suddenly covered his mouth, and his eyes immediately became red and swollen, and a trace of tears flashed in his eyes.

"I'm sorry to miss me!"

After a trembling sentence, the young teacher turned around sharply and ran towards a side room inside, and when he entered, the door slammed shut.

Looking at the closed door, Zhang Kun didn't say anything, but bent down, and then sat down slowly against the wall next to the door, quietly looking at the sky in the distance.

After more than twenty minutes, suddenly a figure slowly walked to Zhang Kun's side, and then sat down quietly.

It was the young teacher, his face was calm, but his eyes were completely red and swollen, red and red.

The young teacher sat next to Zhang Kun and quietly looked at the sky in the distance.

"My name is Huang Guowang, and Huang Shikai have been together since childhood, we are orphans, we grew up together in an orphanage, and then we studied together, since elementary school, we have always been classmates, and even in college, we all went to the same school. ”

"Nanhu Normal School, sixteen years of hard study, I see that I am finally going to get through, but in our senior year, a college student went to the countryside to teach in an activity, Huang Shikai and I participated, and the two of us were divided together. ”

"We came here together, and at that time, there was only one old teacher, who was in charge of all the students, from the first grade to the sixth grade, all the classes. ”

"But there is no way, it is bitter here, it is poor here, no teacher is willing to come here, for more than 20 years, it has been the old gentleman who has been supporting alone. ”

"The environment is poor, and sometimes even the salary is not guaranteed, and while teaching, you have to grow some fields by yourself. ”

"When we first came, we couldn't stand it for a few days, the environment was not good, the teaching equipment was completely gone, the whole school, just this one classroom, a blackboard, and then, it was gone!"

"At that time, Huang Shikai and I almost couldn't survive, but later, slowly, I came into contact with these students, they were poor, but cheerful, they were not rich in material life, but they were easy to satisfy. ”

"In such a poor life, they smile all day long, they call me Teacher Big Huang, Teacher Huang Shikai Xiao Huang. ”

"Slowly, we started to like it and started teaching the kids with the old gentleman. ”

"The month-long volunteer teaching life is about to pass, and we are about to leave, but at this moment, the old gentleman ...... , but suddenly it doesn't work. ”

"The old gentleman is sixty-three years old, has been teaching here for more than 20 years, and since the age of forty, he has left the rest of his life here, without marriage or children. ”

"The old gentleman is leaving, but when he is dying, he is still thinking about these students, he can't let go of his heart, his heart aches, because after he is gone, there will be no teacher here, no teacher will want to come here and teach these poor children. ”

Looking at the old gentleman's reluctant, hopeful, and worried eyes, Huang Shikai and I suddenly became nervous, and then promised the old gentleman that we would stay and take over his work and continue to teach these children. ”

"Get a word from us, the old gentleman is gone, but at least he walks with his eyes closed!"

"We didn't lie to the old gentleman, we did stay, and the volunteer teaching ended, but we didn't leave, we didn't go back to school, and we didn't go back to get our graduation certificates, so we stayed. ”

"We are orphans who have tasted poverty since childhood, and we know that if we want to change our lives here, we only have knowledge, and knowledge is power, and we hope that we can pass on this power to the children here, so that they will no longer be poor in the future. ”

"But the environment here is really bad, there is nothing. ”

"We have endured and boiled, and three years have passed in a blink of an eye. ”

"In the past three years, we have watched the children grow up and absorb our knowledge little by little, but it is too slow and too inefficient. ”

"No books, no homework, no pens, nothing, even a genius can't learn. ”

"But we're not officially the teachers to take over, and we don't even have a salary, so we can't do anything we want to!"

Then, more than two months ago, Huang Shikai finally couldn't help it, he left a word and left. ”

"He said he was going to make money for the children, buy books, buy desks, buy school bags, buy pens!"

"However, I didn't expect him to go, so I won't go back!"

"Huang Shikai, I hate you......!" Huang Guowang roared angrily, tears pouring down his eyes.
