Chapter XXVIII

Soon it was the middle of May. My son has been playing for a month, and the momentum of playing games is not so scary. On Friday night, you can turn off your phone at half past eleven, and on Saturday, you can run out to play something else. At this point, I had a vague and indescribable liking for the game.

In the evening, when my son came back from outside, I said, "Joy, how about going to Huxi tomorrow to dig cistanche?"

"Tomorrow Sunday, the game can only be played during the day. Cistanche is too hard to find, you can't dig it at all, and it's useless to go. ”

"You can't just because you didn't dig it last time, so you won't go this time, this isn't what a male doll looks like! Are there heroes in the Water Margin and Sui and Tang Dynasties?"

"But I want to play games tomorrow and don't want to go out at all. ”

"You can play the game every day, and you only come back once every two weeks when you go camping. Besides, Cistanche will be completely gone after May 20th. ”

"Okay then, but bring something good. The son made a request.

"Of course. I said, "Bring the pot tomorrow and we'll cook and eat in the wild." ”

"Great, it's best to cook in the wild. The son clenched his fists excitedly.

The next morning, there was not a single cloud in the vast blue sky, and the sun was gentle. The mildness heralds an unexpected outburst of heat. At eight o'clock, I stood under the tree in front of the courtyard, looking at the shining daylight, and calculating the pros and cons between the heat and the camping, the children and the will.

Full of hope, my son and I quickly set out for the west of the lake.

This is due north of the western part of the lake. On one side, the water under the artificial sprinkler irrigation is rippling and sparkling; on the sandy ground, all kinds of artificially planted flowers and plants are swaying and rustling with the ups and downs of the water; on the other side, there are fast-growing desert plants, which are in full bloom, dazzling and fragrant; and on the sandy ground, a plant called bitter bean grows, like a green coat. It's a pity that people use money to destroy nature. "Is it beautiful here? I asked.

"Beautiful. ”

"Twenty years ago, the northwest side of the lake was as beautiful as this, and now those beauties have died, which is a beauty that cannot be sustained. I said.

My son didn't understand what I was saying.

After passing through the plantation and entering the natural Saxon forest, we didn't find Cistanche by noon, so we buried a pot under a Saxon tree to cook. After eating, my son rested, and I went to look for Cistanche...... After a while, I came back, and he shouted from afar, "Dad, have you dug up Cistanche?"

"Nope. I approached before answering.

"White is coming. The son looked disappointed.

"But I found a nest with four eggs in it. ”

"Where's it? Let's go, I haven't seen it yet!" the son's frustration swept away.

We packed up our things and headed out for the undulating sandy slopes and the wider Sosuo forest. The two of us will meander along the sand-beam road, and the other will climb the sand-beam, and the shuttle trees will continue to pass in front of us, witnessing our footprints. Under the dazzling sun, the sweat on the face stimulates a force in life beating in the heart. Surrounded by gray sand trees and quiet sand dunes, there is no fashionable beauty, but there is a space for dreams to wander in tranquility, which is unique to nature......

The son walked in the sand dunes, in the sand valley, the sun was extraordinarily hot, but the clear goal made his mind excited and his mood relaxed. There was a sense of tirelessness on the soft sand, and I felt that he could keep walking to the place of hope.

A pair of large gray birds sang not far away, and their singing voices were overflowing with happiness. "See the clump of the bird falling?" I asked, gesticulating.

"See. ”

"The bird's nest is there. ”

The sons rushed over, the song of the birds turned to terror, and they rushed to the sky, and the silence was gone, and there was a smell of war in the air. The big bird tried his best to warn Wang Xile, but it did nothing to the invading big guy. The cry of the great bird became desperate, and seemed to cry out: "Raise your hand, O God!"

"Dad, where is the bird's nest, why can't I find it?"

"If you were so young, the bird would not have the ability to survive in nature. ”

When I found the nest, my son was overjoyed, it was the first time he had seen the nest so closely. He took out the eggs, and I was going to come over and look at the sun. He said, "There's a little bird in the bird." ”

"How do you know?"

I instructed the child to look at the eggs in front of the sun. "Daddy, let's take the eggs back and let the big daddy's pigeon hatch the birds. The son said.

"Listen, joy, the heart-rending cry of the birds' parents and parents. My son and I stood in the direction of the big bird, and I said, "Joy, will you feel bad if Mom and Dad leave you?"

"It's uncomfortable. ”

"You're going to take Big Bird's future baby away now, is it uncomfortable?"

"It's fine. It is a bird bird. ”

"Nope. I said, "It's a living being, a living being like a human being." The bird is just a name given to it by humans, and it has the same joys and sorrows as humans. Although human beings have become the overlord of the earth, it does not mean that we will own the earth forever, and when the small animals on the earth almost die, human beings should also perish. ”

"Why?"

"Because small animals have the ability to protect the earth's environment, but humans don't. So everyone should take care of small animals. ”

"I want to take the eggs so much. ”

"Listen, how painful the big bird is. Think about it, what is the mood if you want to play a game, and your dad won't let you play?"

"It's very uncomfortable. ”

"That's the mood for Big Bird right now. People have to be sympathetic to animals, they are weak. A victory over the weak is a meaningless victory. ”

"I'll take three. ”

"What's the difference between three and four, if there is one less, the big bird will not hatch the other three. ”

"Why?"

"It's losing its sense of security. ”

In the face of my son's children's words, I talked until the big bird had no strength to scream, and then I told him to put the last egg back in the nest. I kissed him on the cheek and said:

"Good boy. ”

Leaving there, after walking more than ten meters, my son turned around and ran back to look again. When we were far away, the big bird flew quickly towards the nest. Immediately, the joyful singing accompanied by the breeze drifted towards us. "Listen, Joy, Big Bird is thanking you!" I said.

The son smiled.

In recognition of my son's kindness, when I got home, I invited him to a good meal to further strengthen my son's kindness.

Immediately after that, Monday. In the afternoon, I went to the primary school for some business, and by the way, I went to Mr. Liu's to learn about my son's situation. Teacher Liu said that although Wang Xile has a lot of problems compared with last semester, he is not worried. It's too playful, bold, not afraid of people at all, it's hard to control, as long as the teacher is not in the classroom, his voice is the loudest, and there are many crooked reasons, which is ridiculous. I explained: "Since I was a child, Wang Xile has been very good in language conversation, and I intend to develop his language communication skills. ”

"No matter what you develop, cultural classes are the most important, no matter how good your words are in the future, if you don't take the university exam, what is the use. "Teacher Liu's voice is not loud, but it is more powerful than a knife.

"Everything for the kids, everything for the kids. This slogan, which I have heard countless times in my teaching career, seems to be 100% correct on the surface, but everything that is singular and false in it does not stand up to any logical analysis. Its desire to control everything will destroy many children in the near future......

"Yes. I replied against my will.

"Now there are two main problems with your Wang Xile: the first is that the homework is not serious, you say he can't, but he is called to the office for a plenary meeting, which really makes people wonder what is going on. The second is playing, I dare say he is the most playful doll in the whole school, playing with everything, not only with his classmates but also with senior students. Because of playing, I don't know how many times he was punished for being on duty, but it was useless, as if those things had never happened. It's really different from other children, it's too hard to manage. Teacher Liu paused for a moment and continued, "Oh, just now I wanted to say that your Wang Xile often rollerblats with senior children, do you know?"

"Yes. ”

"That's not a good thing, most of those kids don't like to learn. 'Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Try not to let Wang Xile associate with those children. In general, Wang Xile has made significant progress compared to the last semester, but he still has to hurry.

Teacher Liu and I ended the conversation happily. Wang Xile's learning situation has rebounded in so many activities, which suggests that we are on the right track, and when I got home, I talked to my son about this and formally praised him, and finally I told him that he should not let him arrange except for the fixed one-hour study plan every day.
