The dormitories are located at the back of the campus and were built for this year's enrollment expansion plan. The large passage room between the two rooms is paved with a circle of wooden planks against the wall. A place one meter wide per person. The dormitory is also built here to facilitate the students' food and accommodation.

The school not only has a special boiling water room, but also a shower room, which is open to students free of charge every Sunday.

Students pay 30 catties of food stamps and 3 yuan for food every month. The food stamps were exchanged for food at the grain station with the school's certificate. The state subsidizes the food in high school, otherwise, just 30 catties of food, three yuan is not enough.

Meals are provided in rations and are collected in shifts. Every morning, a steamed bun, a bowl of porridge, and a piece of pickle strips. At noon, one cooked dish, one of the two steamed buns is coarse grain, and dinner is the same as in the morning.

Most of the students don't have enough to eat. You can buy bun tickets separately, one pound of food stamps plus two cents, and exchange them for five bun stamps, two taels each, two of which are coarse grains.

The children who go to high school are all seventeen or eighteen years old, and they all eat a lot of food, only at noon there are cooked vegetables, either radishes or cabbage, and there is very little oil and water. The ration given by the school, let alone boys, even girls, can't eat enough.

Boys with a large amount of food have to subsidize 30 catties of steamed buns a month. That's the same thing that costs six dollars. Even girls, they have to subsidize at least ten catties per month.

Therefore, if you go to school in Linshui No. 1 Middle School, you will get at least 10 yuan a month, and if your home is close, your parents will send dry food regularly, and the school will give you free heat.

This year, Linshui No. 1 Middle School recruited 320 high school students for the first time in the district, but less than 300 people came to report, and those who had difficulties in family life automatically gave up their admission qualifications. This is not only the case in Linshui No. 1 Middle School, but also in each county No. 1 Middle School.

However, now that all communes have high schools, they can go to school nearby, at least with a secure livelihood. Those who are admitted to the first middle school are well studied, and the commune high school is very welcome.

Linshui No. 1 Middle School is in the west of the family courtyard of the local party committee, and there is a three-finished elementary school in the middle. There are five houses in the third aunt's house, and the westernmost one is idle, and no one lives in it yet.

Aunt Katsuo personally cleaned up the house, and specially equipped Zhiyuan with a bookcase, and the nanny at home washed all the new bedding. But Zhiyuan had to live on campus, he said: "Everyone else lives on campus, and I also have to feel the life of high school in high school." ”

Uncle and aunt also supported him: "Zhiyuan is different from Huihui, he is a boy, so he has to be raised roughly, and it is also a workout to endure more hardships." ”

Shengnan's aunt said: "Brother, sister-in-law, the child is growing up, and the conditions of the school are not enough for nutrition.

Our children have been drinking milk powder for several years, and even if they have it at school, they can't drink it, and now many babies can't drink milk powder.

Milk powder can not be drunk, the school's food fee of three yuan a month, not to mention meat, even oil is not willing to put it, a student only has three taels of oil a month. When I was at home, my family didn't eat meat that day.

I also asked, the dormitory of No. 1 Middle School is tight, and the children in the waterfront city have to go to school, our home is so close to the school, and it is more convenient than the children to go to the room after school.

Don't fight, let Zhiyuan live at home. It's not that we don't have any conditions, so why let the child suffer that sin.

Zhiyuan, you listen to your aunt's words, you want to feel the collective life, let's go to the university to feel it, and be admitted to a key university, and have four years in school.

Now, in the second year of high school, but when time is against time, I live here with my aunt, and the learning environment is quiet. ”

Zhiyuan's attitude was very resolute, he said: "The teacher has already arranged a bunk, I still eat and live in the school first, and then move to the third uncle's house if it doesn't work." ”

Uncle Patriot said: "Just let him try, our family has food stamps, buy more steamed bun stamps, no matter how big the amount of food is, you can eat enough, and the conditions are much better than when I was in school." ”

Aunt Shengnan had no choice but to say: "Zhiyuan, our school is close to home, you can go home if you have something, uncle and aunt are here, tell us if you encounter difficulties." We don't cause trouble, and we can't accept grievances. ”

Jingyun and the others were in Hongcheng County No. 1 Middle School, and when they returned home on Sunday, they came to find Wisdom, and the pronunciation of the English teacher in No. 1 Middle School was different from what Wisdom taught.

After listening to Jingyun's English pronunciation, the black lines on their heads were also stumbling, and the English was forced to let them read it straight in Chinese, with some Hongcheng accents, it was weird to listen to.

It is estimated that their English teacher should not be from the background of teaching Russian, but taught by a Chinese teacher. Listening to the English pronunciation of Hong Cheng's tone, Yoyo privately thought that it was better not to take this class.

After listening to their English pronunciation, Yoyo's mother also began to worry, but Sister Zhizhi came up with an idea: "It would be nice to have a set of high school English tapes like Xu Guozhang's "English". ”

In fact, high school English is very simple now, the first book is 26 letters, simple words and common dialogues, and the content is similar to children's literacy.

Youyou received it casually: "Sister Wisdom, then you can record one for them, and I'll find you a blank tape." ”

Wisdom crampedly said, "That's not good, my pronunciation is not standard." If only my uncle were here, his pronunciation is accurate. ”

Mom said to Sister Zhizhi: "Huihui, you can record it for them first, it is better than the standard of their teacher's reading." ”

Wisdom regarded this as a big deal, and recorded it several times in a row before she was satisfied. Yoyo always followed the recording, nodding secretly when she listened, it seems that Sister Wisdom has worked hard, and her pronunciation is really standard.

After the recording was completed, Yoyo made a few more copies of the tape, in case the tape broke. But a new problem arose, and several of them didn't have a tape recorder at home, so they had one at home.

Besides, the tape recorder is different from the radio, the price of the tape recorder is too high, and now a cheap tape recorder costs more than 800 yuan, and the key is that the county department store does not sell it.

Jing Yun is 17 years old, the oldest of them. Youyou's mother said to her: "Jingyun, this tape recorder is useless at home, so you can take it to school." You are the oldest, and the tape recorder is in your custody. ”

Jingyun didn't agree, so he went home to discuss with his father. It didn't take long for the "big one" to come, and when he entered the door, he looked for his grandmother: "Auntie, Jingyun went home and told me, saying that her wise sister had thought of a good way to study, but she lacked a machine."

said that it was a thousand yuan less, and our county has not sold it yet. You have to go to the water to buy it, not necessarily yet.

Auntie, you have a lot of ways, buy one for your child. It doesn't matter how much money you have, as long as it's for your children to go to school, we're willing to spend it. ”

Jingyun followed behind her mother, excited. However, she also had concerns, "Grandma, is there a small tape recorder, it's as big as yours, and it's not easy for me to put it in school." ”
