Baili Bomei looked at the poplar whose appearance had not changed much compared with six years ago, and her heart was full of emotion and relief.

She also didn't expect that the young man who was confused by love and hiking in the northwest of his motherland would meet again on such an occasion.

That year, she suffered from unbearable pain from appendicitis, so she turned to a house and became acquainted with Populus euphratica.

During that time, she also learned that Hu Yang worked as a volunteer teacher in the small village of Ali in Tibet.

I also slowly learned from the mouth of Populus euphratica.

He came to that land in Tibet because of his wife.

However, his wife died in a once-in-a-century snowstorm two years ago to save a student.

Because of the loss of his beloved, Hu Yang felt that there was not much to be nostalgic about in the world, and fell into the lost path of life.

He had been on the pilgrimage path at the foot of Mount Kailash and crawled along to measure the distance between himself and his deceased wife.

The repeated knockdowns made his sad heart seem to feel better.

Leave Tibet and head to southern Xinjiang to enjoy a different kind of scenery.

The wind and sand blew across his face, making his skin a little chapped, but it also recolored his gray world.

Populus euphratica went there for no purpose, just to keep himself idle, nothing more.

But presumably he didn't expect to meet another extremely important woman in his life there-Baili Bomei.

It was this kind woman who made him see the way forward in confusion.

She didn't say anything big to Populus, nor did she say anything to Populus that you want to open a little or anything like that.

Just lying on the hospital bed and slowly telling his story to Hu Yang.

At the end of the 80s, Baili Bomei, who had just graduated from technical secondary school, responded to the National Northwest Support Program and went to southern Xinjiang to support education and became a glorious volunteer teacher.

She said that the reason why she chose to go to southern Xinjiang, the most backward part of the territory, was because her target was also there as a soldier to defend the country.

When she talked about her husband, Baili Bomei's face was filled with happiness, but it quickly dimmed.

Because the most important person in her life died heroically in a battle with hostile forces for a newly married comrade-in-arms to block a fatal bullet.

In the past, she was like Hu Yang, who felt that life was meaningless, and wanted to follow him one day.

The day before she wanted to end the rest of her life, one of her students timidly said to her, "Teacher, don't go, I want to study." ”

Look at the test paper in the child's hand with a perfect score.

In an instant, her eyes turned red, and she couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

The parched heart was also moistened at this moment.

She remembered that her husband had written to her that he had said, "You look so beautiful standing on the podium with chalk and writing on the blackboard."

At that moment, she understood a lot.

Even if he is not by his side, he must be the most beautiful wife in his mind.

Standing on the podium with a book in his left hand and a piece of chalk in his right hand.

Since then, in the land of southern Xinjiang, there is one less woman who wants to commit suicide, and one more volunteer teacher who wants to be the best looking in her husband's heart.

Because she has goals, persistence, and ideals in her heart, she is no longer like she is depressed all day long after losing her husband.

She continued to teach in that small village in southern Xinjiang.

Just because he said: You look so beautiful in class.

Only when you have experienced the same thing will you understand and understand what that heart-wrenching feeling is like.

Didn't she be as confused as Populus euphratica at that time, and felt that she had nothing to love?

It was also during that time in southern Xinjiang that Baili Bomei accompanied him to chat about the past, which made Populus euphratica's originally melancholy mood gradually cheerful.

At the same time, I also understand what the future path should be.

At the beginning, his wife chose to come to Tibet to teach because of the kindness and dreams in her heart, so as a husband, she continued to stay here to fulfill what she dreamed of.

What's more, when she was dying, she also looked at herself with expectant eyes, hoping that she wouldn't leave here because of her accident.

Half a month later, Populus euphratica left the small village in southern Xinjiang and returned to the small village in Tibet.

Since then, he has been with his wife while teaching with peace of mind.

If it weren't for the merger, he would still be there telling fables or fairy tales to Dolma.

"Teacher Baili, this is my phone, I want to invite you to dinner tomorrow, is it okay?" Hu Yang asked Xian Zhiming for a pen and paper to write down his phone number, and then handed it to her with both hands.

She took the note handed over by Hu Yang, put it close to her body, shook her head with a smile and said, "I have to fly back tomorrow, and the children are still waiting for me to teach them, and I don't know if they are used to the new teacher." ”

She was the only teacher in their school, just like Populus euphratica was in Tibet.

A few days ago, the leaders of the regional education bureau came to the school to tell her that she was rated as one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Volunteer Teachers in the Country" by the Ministry of Teaching and Education, and asked her to go to Beijing to receive the award.

But I can't rest assured that the children who have just started school are reluctant to go.

After all, she didn't stay in that small village in southern Xinjiang to teach, not to get any honors.

In the end, I was persuaded by the leaders above.

Because they came to receive the award, their district can receive greater education support from the state next year, and at the same time, the district will send another teacher to their school.

This is also a request she has made several times to the district, but because the teachers are too nervous and can't do anything.

This time, I was transferred from another school.

Now that Hu Yang heard the reason for her refusal, he understood her worries.

"And what about after the conference?" asked Hu Yang again.

"Mr. Hu, after the conference, there will be a tea party, and there will be a dinner party in the evening. Xian Zhiming on the side reminded softly.

Although he didn't know much about Baili Bomei, he understood the current social status and influence of Populus euphratica.

"It's a pleasure to meet you here. The wrinkles on her face also seemed to dissipate a lot.

"Didn't this comrade just say that there was still food to eat in the evening, and it would not be too late for us to talk slowly. She said with a gentle smile.

Since she said so, Hu Yang no longer asked for it.

Just as they were talking, a staff member hurriedly ran over and said to Baili Bomei: "Teacher Baili, the leader wants to see you." ”

"Then Baili teacher, you go over first, and I have to let Xiao Ming take me to familiarize myself with the process. Hu Yang hurriedly said.

Baili Bomei smiled lightly and nodded to him, and then left with the staff.

Looking at her thin back, Hu Yang couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart.

They hadn't seen each other for six years, but some of them had not seen each other for a long time, and when they said goodbye, they were still the same as they had been at the beginning.

It doesn't change with the passage of time.

Then Xian Zhiming took Populus Hu to start introducing the process of the conference, and there are still matters that need attention.

In particular, he was reminded not to forget to bring the manuscript to prevent him from being too nervous and forgetting the words.

Because the "National Top Ten Outstanding Teachers" award conference is also in the form of live broadcast.

That's why it's constantly reminded.

And the poplar next to him didn't nod his head.

In addition, the tie that his sister-in-law Song Wenjing tied for him in the morning was also untied by him.

If it weren't for the lack of time, he would have to change his suit.

It's really not a good choice to come here in this dress.
