Chapter Twenty-Three: Division

One weekend in May, Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong, Yuan Jun and Wang Laosan were idle and had nothing to do, and they didn't know who proposed it, so they came to Yuyuantan Park, and several of them were lazily lying on the benches by the lake in Yuyuantan Park. They often came here to swim during the summer vacation last year, and they spent the afternoon soaking in the water, so they used this method to escape the heat.

At this time, the weather is still a little cold, there are not many people by the lake, and there are only a few wild ducks floating on the water in the lake, leisurely and sleeping.

"Hey, do you remember last summer, when my brothers were caught serving watermelons in the vegetable garden next door?" Zheng Tong suddenly mentioned something.

Yuan Jun immediately complained: "At that time, I blamed Wang Laosan, clumsy, and stepped on the dung bucket with one foot, otherwise could my brothers be pressed there to crawl the grass for an afternoon!

Wang Laosan said aggrievedly: "Then you can't blame me, I finally picked a melon, my heart is beautiful, when I turned around, a big wolf dog behind me, scared me to run, I didn't pay attention to hit the dung bucket, splashed half of my body, I worked all afternoon with a stinky body, and was beaten by my mother when I went home." ”

"Haha, you deserve it, let you have a big bad conscience, seeing that the big dog didn't remind us, he was ready to run by himself, and he suffered retribution. Zheng Tong grabbed Wang Laosan's handle and laughed.

Zhong Yuemin was overjoyed beside him, and said with a smile: "Look at your little bit of interest, you specialize in harming the farmer's uncle's watermelon, can you do something serious!"

"Speaking of business, there really is, I heard you and Cui Xiumei talking about Tsinghua High School that day, I have a buddy over there who told me a lot of things. Zheng Tong approached.

"Tell me more about it. ”

"They were engaged in education reform a while ago, so they set up a preparatory class, and I heard that if you enter the preparatory class, you can go directly to Tsinghua University. This time, many of the children of high-ranking cadres were not selected for the preparatory class, so they were not convinced, and posted big-character posters everywhere, and the children of the commoners also posted big-character posters in response, and they did not give in to each other, and I heard that their dining room was full of stickers. ”

"Does the school care?"

"The school is in charge of that, but the school is biased, and just focusing on the children of high-ranking cadres will only add fuel to the fire, and now they are all in chaos, and they have all turned into class struggle. ”

Yuan Jun was very unhappy when he heard this: "Zheng Tong, don't tilt your mouth to the side, who doesn't know that your father has stayed abroad, pretending that you are also from a high-level intellectual family, the school is right for our high-ranking cadres, and if you don't look to it, you are a counterrevolutionary!"

"Why are you the successors of the revolutionary cause, and those of us who come from our families are bourgeois bitches!"

Zheng Tong's fire has been held in his heart for a long time, his father Zheng Tianyu studied in the United States in his early years, and brought back the free and loose atmosphere of Americans, and he is particularly nosy to express his opinions. After returning to China, he was especially not recruited to be treated by leaders, and whenever there was a movement, he was brought out to criticize and educate, and he wrote and checked at every turn. Zheng Tong was also affected, and was always discriminated against because he was born in the "stinky old nine", and there was nothing good about him in the class and school.

Yuan Jun was stunned by Zheng Tong's outburst for a while, and he didn't know what to say. He didn't mean to target Zheng Tong, but now the concept of class elements in society is very serious, and this ideology has profoundly affected everyone.

"Yuan Jun will speak in the future, regardless of our background, don't let me hear such words in the future. Zheng Tong, don't be angry, the social atmosphere is not good now, and Yuan Jun is also unintentional. Zheng Yuemin is also helpless against this paranoid and fanatical society, and can only affect the people around him.

"Zheng Tong, you go on to talk about the situation over there. ”

"Hey. I heard that several of their high-ranking cadres formed a small team, called Bing. I'm putting up big-character posters with great fanfare and asking for support from a few nearby schools!"

"It's time to come. Zhong Yuemin paused for a moment and fell into deep thought.

Yuan Jun became excited: "Hey, this is exciting, should we also respond and support our revolutionary comrades." ”

"I'm afraid, but I'm afraid, and in the end, it's all used by people with ill intentions. Zhong Yuemin sighed: "They may have some young people's idealism at the beginning, and they also want to promote the reform of the education system like us, but there are too many things mixed in here, such as paranoid class consciousness, violent revolutionary impulse, youthful rebellious spirit, worship of spiritual idols, and the privileged mentality of the children of high-ranking cadres, they will soon be unable to control it." ”

In June, as soon as the article on sweeping away the ghosts, snakes, and gods came out, all major primary and secondary schools were agitated, and they began to set up organizations one after another, criticizing the rich and opposing the bad and the right, and some schools began to strike and make revolutions, and the news reached Yuying School, and many students began to sit still.

"Yue Min, now that the situation is very good, and the students in other schools have begun to make revolutions, should we also take action? Zhong Yuemin didn't expect Cui Xiumei to be the first person to come to him.

"We have been revolutionizing, we have been working hard to make everyone equal in the school, constantly giving advice to the school and teachers, and promoting mutual help among students. This is Zhong Yuemin's answer, he doesn't want the Mao group to be dragged into the torrent.

"You are a feudal small peasant mentality, a little wealth is peace, only our school peace is not enough, we must devote ourselves to the great cause of all mankind. Cui Xiumei said hysterically, she has a feeling of not waiting for me, everything that the Mao group did before was so creative and revolutionary, but now compared to other schools, she is so conservative, she is now desperate to throw herself into the wave of revolution and overthrow all the dregs of capitalism and feudalism.

"We can put up big-character posters and organize more forms of revolutionary activities, but I don't allow strikes to make revolutions, and I don't allow people from outside to come to our schools, and the duty of students is to study hard.

Cui Xiumei also said angrily: "Zhong Yuemin, you disappointed me too much, you used to be a revolutionary, but now you are a complete conservative." You can't stop the rest of Mao's group from making a revolution. ”

In the end, Cui Xiumei led more than a dozen members of the Mao group to leave the school and devote themselves to the wave. Zhong Yuemin then discussed with the school leaders and decided to close the school, continue classes, and organize a school guard team to prevent idlers from entering the school and destroying it.

"Yue Min, you are doing a good job, those students outside are just fooling around, they don't understand, and they want to make a revolution······" Director Yang knew that he had too much to say.

Zhong Yuemin was relieved: "Our Mao Group has always insisted on studying hard for the construction of New China, which is our principle. Besides, you can't take care of our elementary school students yet, so you can rest assured for the time being. ”
