Chapter 17: Care

The class was divided into six duty groups, from one group to six groups, and arranged duty according to the weekly turnover, responsible for the day's classroom cleaning and meal distribution. In the first few days, whenever Mr. Li was having a meal, he would always stand aside and watch the students on duty distribute the meals, and when the meals were distributed and the students received the meals to eat, he left silently.

For these childish children in the class, it is needless to say that they pay attention to normal learning and life, and the small details of life are just like treating their own children, normal growth and development, and will not attract the attention of parents, but after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be a small illness and disaster, which will break the parents and break their hearts. The seventy-two students in the class, in the eyes of Mr. Li, are seventy-two children, each child is always connected to his tense heart, seventy-two children, far away from their parents and relatives, handed over to the school, let them take on the dual responsibility of teachers and parents, he knows in his heart that his burden is not light. In addition to teaching the children daily life, he also has to guide the children's good living habits, get up on time, turn off the lights on time and go to bed, in the days after entering the school, he did not relax for a moment, whenever he heard the children's sweet snoring outside the dormitory, he went home to rest, every morning, the children were still dreaming, he had already waited outside the dormitory door, watching the children get up on time and go out of the exercise. For him who has been serving as the head teacher of high school students, he has never felt so busy, those high school students, although they are a few years older, but they have a stronger ability to live independently, but now this group of children who have just left home and are still childish need to be given more love and care.

A lot of times, worries come uninvited. As usual, he came to the classroom in advance, sat at the lectern, while preparing for the lesson, while scanning the children in the classroom from time to time, suddenly, a "clang" sound, broke the silence of the classroom, Teacher Li was startled, and hurriedly looked in the direction where the sound came from, near the middle of the class on the left of a seat missing the traces of classmates, Teacher Li was in the head at the time "buzzed", "Not good, something happened!" Then stood up reflexively, walked off the podium in three steps and two steps, hurriedly came to the place where the student fell, squatted down, helped up, and found that the classmate clenched his teeth and turned blue, Mr. Li immediately held it up with his left hand, and pressed the thumb of his right hand tightly under his nose, and all the students sitting near the classmate stood up, looking at Mr. Li's move at a loss, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.

The child woke up slightly, his face began to be ruddy, Teacher Li didn't think about anything, picked up the classmate, walked out of the classroom without looking back, and strode towards the school clinic.

The school doctor in the school clinic is a retired military doctor from the army, surnamed Liu, everyone respectfully calls him Dr. Liu, slightly fat, it is said that when he was in the army, the sound of artillery shook his ears a little, perhaps it is for this reason that he spoke like a bell, lest others could not hear it. Because it is a key middle school in the region, each student is subsidized with one yuan per semester for medical expenses, which is used to buy some ordinary tablets for treating colds and diarrhea and several commonly used antipyretic injections in the clinic. So his classmates privately called him "Doctor of Boiling Water".

From the classroom to the school clinic to the school clinic to diagonally through the playground in the campus, about two or three hundred meters away, but there are no street lights, can only use the faint light from the classroom to illuminate the road in front of him, when Mr. Li stood outside the door of the health room, his body was already soaked, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were like dew drops on the leaves in the autumn morning, rolling down.

The health room is only hoisted with a "15W" tungsten bulb, red, plus the night electricity consumption, insufficient voltage, it looks even more dim, lazy like shining on the anxious face of the visitor, Mr. Li briefly described the condition, Dr. Liu did not hurry to roll the child's eyelids, with a flashlight just taken out of the drawer, opened his heavy throat, dry cough twice: "It's nothing, it may be a seizure! Observe more! No need to take any medicine!" Dr. Liu has always been short-spoken, never too much to explain the condition, maybe he learned some medical knowledge in the army, equivalent to the level of a barefoot doctor in the countryside, and in that era, there was a lack of medical books, and the knowledge he knew was very limited.

When Mr. Li heard this, he was relieved and breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared a lot just now!"

"This problem is urgent, maybe there will be a danger to life, and it is also urgent, as long as the rescue is in time, nothing will happen!" Dr. Liu said a few more words for the first time, maybe it was comforting, maybe it was more to remind Mr. Li of his attention.

The sick classmate is called Sun Shicai, and afterwards according to him, it has not happened before, this is the first time it has happened, and he doesn't know what's going on, like being in an evil spirit, he suddenly convulsed, and he didn't know what was going on, and then he was lying in Mr. Li's arms, not wanting to move. Perhaps it was because of this incident that in the next few years, his classmates never quarreled with him, even if they were unhappy, they all tried to humble him, so that in the three years, not only did he not get sick, but also did not suffer any grievances.

Teacher Li pays attention to the changes of each student in life, who is sick, he will take him to the clinic for diagnosis, the clinic can't see it, he will personally take it to the hospital outside the school for diagnosis and treatment, and sometimes pay the medical expenses for the students in advance. The children are young, they have to bring three or five yuan of pocket money every week, although these money now seem to be pitiful, but the price at that time was very low, eat a bowl of noodles in the restaurant, less than two dimes, the price of a pound of fritters is only two dimes, in order to prevent the loss of classmates, Mr. Li specially set up a "cash locker" for the students, in fact, it is to bring the living expenses first to Mr. Li, and then withdraw at any time, Mr. Li carefully make a record.

At that time, the school did not have a psychological counseling room, but every teacher in the school was the best psychological counseling master, which was gradually summarized by the attentive teachers in the cycle of school life, teachers in daily life is not only teaching, but more importantly, educating people.

There is a small book hanging behind the classroom door, which is a good person and a good deed, who did what good things one day, who helped people one day, as long as it can be written down, the students who benefited can fill in, and the class cadres in the class can fill in, "X month X day, XXX picks up gold, picks up one yuan, and returns it to the owner", "X month X day, XXX helps classmates wash clothes", "XXX cleans the dormitory independently"...... In less than a month, the records on it were densely packed with the excellent performance of the students in the class.

Every Monday, it is the first day of returning home from home for the weekend, most of the students use bicycles, and the students who are ten miles away from home use "two legs", so this day is the most tired day of the week for students. The phrase he often said at that time: "After Wednesday, the day is almost a day, after Thursday, it is too fast to rule the law, after Friday, there is still a morning!" Although this sentence is only a slip of the tongue, it always reminds the children that the week flies by and dispels everyone's homesickness.

In the eyes of the children, Mr. Li can be called the king of stories, and his stories are often as simple as handy. In one mathematics exam, everyone's results were not very satisfactory, and Mr. Li saw that everyone showed a depressed spirit, and he said to everyone: "In the past, when I was changing the mathematics test paper, I met a student master, and this student did not do a single question except his own name, but wrote four lines on the paper - difficult, really difficult, really difficult, difficult to kill me!"

After laughing, Mr. Li asked everyone: "Compared to him, which student can't do a question, no, although we didn't get the ideal results this time, but the explanation question is indeed a bit difficult, this is not to blame everyone, blame me for not talking about many places, isn't it?" Everyone was relieved, and it did not affect everyone's learning mood at all.
