64, a middle school
After the weather cleared, the road surface was also dry, He Zhaodi pulled up the sand and gravel again, she pulled it very hard, and there were still many puddles on the road after the rain and snow. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
During dinner, Li He was smoking and strolling on the riverside, and he met He Zhaodi, who was washing clothes in the river.
He may feel a duty or obligation to help the girl.
Li He said, "I still came out to wash clothes so late."
It was almost dark.
He Zhaodi said, "It's okay, I'm carrying a flashlight."
"Why are you unhappy?", Li He looked at He Zhaodi's expression very gloomy.
"It's nothing, it's just that the old lady at home is more annoying, and she has to show me the object", she is a 22-year-old girl, and she is an old girl in the countryside, and her mother always wants to give her a blind date.
Li He couldn't say what he felt in his heart, but he still encouraged, "You're not too small, it's time to think about yourself." If the boy is good, you can try to do it everywhere."
He Zhaodi pursed her lips and smiled reluctantly, "I know, then I'll leave first if it's okay, I have to get up early tomorrow morning."
Li He said, "Is there anything I can do to help you? I hope there is anything I can do to help you."
"Then you can give me a few books, can you keep a few of the books you used to have when you were in school?"
Li He said, "Well, yes, I'll give it to you later."
The two men stood like this, relatively silent.
When he returned to the fork in the road, Li He said, "You wait for me here, I'll go back and get the book."
When Li He returned home, he found old books from the past, including novels and textbooks, many of which he had bought in the past two years, but many of them were missing, and many pages had been folded into paper airplanes by Lao Wu.
He patted the dust, cleaned it up, and simply put it all in a cardboard box, and after thinking about it, he put two hundred yuan in the pages of the top book.
He Zhaodi turned on the flashlight and shone on the boxes full of books, "Why are there so many, I can't finish reading more."
Li He said, "Take it, I'll put it in the house, and you can take it if you need it."
He Zhaodi took the carton and hugged it in her arms, "Thank you."
"No, I said it, we are friends", Li He can say something, "That's okay, I'll go first".
He Zhaodi smiled and said hello.
However, Li He turned around and walked a few steps, and she suddenly couldn't help but shout, "Erhe."
Li He turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Take care of yourself", He Zhaodi's face was tightened by the wind, and her tears couldn't stop falling.
Li He was very flustered, he underestimated how much she liked him, he thought she was very naïve, but she seemed to be really serious.
The feeling of love is what everyone expects, because love is a thing that makes people feel happy and comfortable, but the expression of love is not something that everyone can do.
Affection is not necessarily useless, and long-term love may not be deceived.
Li He took a deep breath, turned around and couldn't help but close his eyes, before he whispered, "Okay."
Li He didn't get a response for a long time, and when he opened his eyes, He Zhaodi was already drowning in the dark night.
Li He took the bus with the fourth child the next day, so he didn't let Li Long send it.
The county No. 1 middle school was built in the 50s, with old classrooms and dormitories, and Li He also spent two years of high school here, and everything here is familiar to him.
The field behind him was overgrown with weeds and crumbling walls, and he used to go out of school at night when he was hungry, run to the countryside to pick pears, and also went to study all night on his own, and also lit candles to grill fish in order to improve his mates.
The most painful thing is to go hungry to attend labor classes, dig canals, plant trees, and move bricks.
Fights between classes occur from time to time, and fights sometimes don't need a reason, just because both sides don't like each other, or stand up for weak classmates, or even have a slight unintentional collision on the court, the fierce teenagers are all agreed to fight.
When fighting, they make an appointment to duel at a certain time and place on a certain day, and make an appointment not to report something to the teacher or school, not to tell the parents, not to tell the public security, and to solve the injury afterwards, and not to hold the other party responsible. The act of collecting medical expenses from the other party is considered to be the act of petty gangsters, which is despicable.
Although the girls' dormitory is only a row of small tiled houses, the accommodation conditions are much better than those in the town, and it is also a bunk bed with eight girls.
The bedroom is very tidy, sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, and they will always pay attention to it.
In the dormitory, there are several parents who send their children, all of whom are helping their children make their beds.
An old man also politely gave Li He a cigarette, "Young man, can't you smoke?"
Li He Xie took it, the old man should be over sixty years old, covered in patched old cotton jackets, a pair of mud-stained liberation shoes on his feet, and glanced at the girl next to the old man, "This is?"
"My family's old man", the old man said happily, and the wrinkles of his smile were piled together.
This kind of father-daughter age gap is very common, and even the age of grandchildren is more than the age of the family.
Li He helped the fourth child sort out his things, and then said, "Study hard, go home on vacation, don't run around."
"You are more verbose than A-Niang, my ears are calloused by what you say", the fourth child disliked Li and nagged.
Li He smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't talk about it, I'll go."
He walked out of the girls' dormitory and turned around to the family quarters, where the creaking wooden stairs were all creaking.
Familiar knocked on the door on the second floor, and it was an old lady who opened the door, "Teacher Jin, remember me, right?"
The old lady blinked her eyes, took off her reading glasses, and said in disbelief, "Li He, how can I not remember you, you are the most promising." Come in, come in".
The furnishings in the house are very simple, just a room, a kitchen, in which there are shelves of books, a bed, and a dining table.
The old lady's husband died early, and she never had children, so she has always lived alone.
When Li He was in school, the old lady also helped him from time to time, and even most of the students in the class received her favors.
If there was no old lady, it would not be so easy for Li He to get through high school so easily.
So Li He was very grateful and respectful to her, and when the old lady passed away, he and a few classmates saw her off.
"Mr. Jin, how is your body doing", Li He sent the bag to the ground and helped the old lady who was trembling slightly.
"That's not as good as before, fortunately, the school arranges retirement, I just read the newspaper every day, read the book, people are old and they are wasted, and they can't do anything", the old lady said very casually, and then asked Li He, "Are you okay over there, have you graduated here, how is the assignment?"
Li He said, "After graduation, stay in school as a teacher."
Li He chatted with the old lady for a while, and gave the old lady another 200 yuan.
The old lady insisted, "I know you have good intentions, but you can't ask for this money, you have just graduated, how much can you save your salary? And I don't know the situation in your family, you can save some money with peace of mind, and then marry a daughter-in-law and have children, where will it not cost money."
Li He's heart was warm, and he held the old lady's hand and said, "I have money, really." You take this money, and I honor you."
He couldn't tell the old lady that he was in business, otherwise the old lady would have criticized him for not doing his job.
After saying that, he didn't give the old lady a chance to speak, turned around and left with his bag, "Teacher Jin, I'll come back to see you when I have time."
The old lady shouted at the door, "Hey, come back, you dead boy."
Li He got out of school, went to the bus station, and got on the bus to the provincial capital.
