Chapter 180: Sworn Brothers
In the few days after Hu Guoqing sent the letter, he was always nervous, looking forward to his mother's reply to confirm that his guess was not wrong. But the left waited for his mother to reply, and the right waited for no news, and when he was anxious, the living expenses sent by Hu Guoqing's mother seemed to arrive as promised, Hu Guoqing looked at the remittance slip, and his heart was a little quieter. The exam is approaching, and as the study tasks continue to increase, I am gradually indifferent to going to the Northeast.
When the day of the literary social manuscript came, Mu Zhen collected the manuscript and handed it to Mr. Chen, who read it very carefully, and from every word between the lines, you can read the changes brought about by reform and opening up in the eyes of a middle school student.
Xu Jin's "Home Vegetable Basket", starting from the dishes on the table at home, wrote the previous single dish, to the diversification of dishes on the table today, this change, it is precisely the reform and opening up that is quietly changing people's food culture, which leads to the fact that people's production of vegetables is no longer planted according to the plan as before, but according to the needs of the market to cut and cultivate, the quiet change of planting concepts, enriching the lives of residents, and puffing up the farmers' money bags.
Gao Changqing, a literary teenager who is quite accomplished in literature, his father is a high school Chinese teacher, he has read a lot of books since he was a child, and his mind is full of all kinds of ancient poems. His article "The Wind in the Field", the whole article quotes scriptures, clarifies what wind should blow in what season, suitable for the growth of crops in the field, and finally can reap a bumper harvest, just the right time to switch to reform and opening up like a spring breeze, this spring breeze refreshes people's minds, cleanses people's souls, and guides people to start from the small things around them and gradually embark on a new journey.
Sui Zhimin, as the only girl in the literary club, started from small changes with a unique perspective and delicate brushstrokes, and wrote "Old Han Smoking Dry Tobacco" in the form of modern poetry, and sang a hymn to the reform and opening up to win the hearts of the people through the psychological portrayal of an old farmer squatting in the field. Due to the small number of words, the transcription is as follows:
Walk through the fields early in the morning
You'll see a figure
The figure was hunched back
Squatting in the field
He is the old man of Wang Village
In fact, Lao Han is not naïve
Just silent and silent
The old society did not learn culture
The new society made him smile
The day the package arrives at home
Lao Han squatted in front of his own responsibility field
Silently smoked the old dry tobacco that had accompanied him for half his life
I already have countless wishes in my heart
New clothes for a year
Two years to live in a new brick house
Three years to show a new look
Five years on the honor roll
Five years have passed in the blink of an eye
Lao Han has already changed his clothes
New clothes, new houses, new glory
Wear a big red flower on holidays
It has become a good example of farming
Old Hantian smoked a cigarette
He kept babbling
Bring back a big color TV in the coming year......
Teacher Chen was attracted by the students' rich imagination, really did not expect that the spring breeze of reform and opening up is bathing the hearts of these teenagers, they grow up in learning, and open their minds in the reform and opening up, embrace tomorrow, these words show that this generation of teenagers is changing their life trajectory, facing the spring breeze of reform, enjoying the rain and dew of openness, pioneering and enterprising, and finally embarking on a glorious road of life.
According to Mr. Chen's plan, these essays were revised by Mr. Chen, and then asked Mu Zhen to distribute them to everyone to copy them again, and then posted them on the propaganda board in front of the classroom.
As Liang Qichao said: The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the country, and the strength of the youth is the strength of the country. Through the words of those outstanding students, we can feel that this generation of young people is singing a symphony of diligence for the country and reading for the people.
Just as the teachers and students of the school were immersed in this passionate and cheerful, the school ushered in the final exam.
For students who excel in their studies, exams are just a test of stage learning, which is almost the law of exams in school. Mu Zhen and Hu Guoqing were naturally not so nervous, and even equivalent to doing homework for a long time.
As soon as the exam was over, Hu Guoqing took Mu Zhen and rushed out of the school.
"Where are you pulling me to?" Mu Zhen was a little puzzled by Hu Guoqing's actions, and asked as she ran.
"You'll know when you go!" Hu Guoqing replied, not stopping, still holding Mu Zhen's hand and running forward.
Mu Zhen didn't ask any more questions, but just ran forward with him, looking at the riverbank that was about to the west of the school, Mu Zhen seemed to understand that Hu Guoqing was pulling himself to the riverbank to relax.
When the two of them arrived at the embankment, Hu Guoqing stopped and panted and said: "We met here, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, in this half a year, I have learned a lot of things that I have not learned before, especially from you, the help I have received has benefited me for life, I came here today, solemnly say one thing to you, I plan to go to the Northeast in two days, see my mother, during this period, you take care of yourself, and when I come back, we will still fight side by side!"
When Mu Zhen heard that Hu Guoqing was leaving, he was immediately a little confused, and then asked, "Didn't you say you wouldn't go? Why did you think of going to the Northeast at this time?"
"Actually, I don't want to go, but a few days ago I received a letter from my mother, mentioning that my uncle asked me to go to a trip, saying that there was something important to discuss with me face-to-face, and I didn't know what it was, but this time I could only promise that it was right for me to go during the holiday after the exam. Hu Guoqing said and smiled, and then said: "Don't worry, there will be nothing wrong, it is estimated that they miss me, otherwise they would not have let me go at this time." ”
Mu Zhen was a little dazed, Hu Guoqing's demeanor suddenly made Mu Zhen feel that he had suddenly grown up, so that in his eyes, Hu Guoqing's changes were so great that he couldn't have imagined half a year ago.
"Then when are you leaving?" Mu Zhen knew that although the two of them were very good, they would break up sooner or later, not to mention that this was only a short breakup, and it was also reasonable, how could she be like a mother-in-law?
"The results are announced!" Hu Guoqing's words were full of affirmation.
"Then I wish you a smooth journey!" Mu Zhen said a word of blessing.
"Let's not talk about that, do you know why I brought you here?" Hu Guoqing stared at Mu Zhen and asked.
"Isn't this a place we often come to?" Mu Zhen felt that Hu Guoqing's demeanor in front of him was a little ridiculous.
"Of course, I come often, but this time is different!" Mr. Hu said.
"What's the difference?" Mu Zhen couldn't figure out what was the difference between coming to the embankment today and coming to the embankment as usual.
"Look, what did I bring!" Mu Zhen noticed that Hu Guoqing's army-green schoolbag was carrying, this schoolbag was nothing special, this schoolbag was Hu Guoqing's schoolbag that he carried with him these days.
I saw Hu Guoqing take out two big apples and three incense sticks from his schoolbag.
"What are you doing here?" Mu Zhen was not surprised when he saw the apple, what was he doing with incense?
"Let's go!" Hu Guoqing didn't explain, pulled up Mu Zhen and ran directly to the second beach of the river.
Standing in the hay on the second beach of the river embankment, Hu Guoqing looked at Mu Zhen's confused eyes and said: "You still remember this place, it was the place where we met for the first time, and I miss this place, so I brought you here today, I have an idea, I want to be a brother with you!"
Mu Zhen was stunned there, opened his eyes wide, watched Hu Guoqing who was squatting on the ground take out a match, "swoop", rowed, lit a handful of hay in front of him, and then held three incense sticks in both hands and lit it on the flame of the hay, and then blew out the open flame on the incense head, stood up and trampled the burning hay with his feet, placed the apple in the grass nest, and inserted the lit incense next to the apple, pulled Mu Zhen back two steps, knelt down in front of the apple and the incense, Hu Guoqing said to Mu Zhen: " The two of us, you are one year older than me, you are the elder brother, I am the younger brother, from today onwards, the world can be learned, the sun and the moon are bright, the two of us are brothers, we share blessings and difficulties!"
Mu Zhen looked at his serious appearance, and also said: "Share the blessings and share the difficulties!"
After speaking, the two kowtowed three times to the burning incense.
The two people who stood up did not leave immediately, but looked at the crystal clear river in front of them, and stood silently for a while, Hu Guoqing said to Mu Zhen: "You are my brother now, you don't have to be so polite in the future!"
Mu Zhen smiled knowingly when she heard Hu Guoqing say this......
