Chapter 294: Borrowing Books
Usually, the cadres of the brigade can turn a blind eye to this matter, but now it is different, and it is better to be careful.
The old people are naturally unhappy in their hearts, and there is no yang and yin in the end.
In the years of famine, people were going to starve to death, so naturally this worship stopped.
Now that some external factors have to be suspended, when the limelight has passed, and it is also the winter solstice, it is a big deal that the meal will be cooked richly, and I believe that the ancestors will not blame them in the underground.
In the blink of an eye, in September, the primary school is still open, and the middle school is the same, but the number of students is smaller.
At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he is half a laborer, and many families are reluctant to send their children to school.
Li Qing is not a person who can talk, he looked at the list of reports and sighed, and said nothing.
Li Qing's hometown is in another province, the road is far away, and he has no friends, so he has been staying at school during this time.
Therefore, he was not influenced by the outside world, and he was not aware of the events that were happening outside.
And a few students in the brigade who went to high school only went to the school for a walk and came back, and the school was closed, and they didn't know when classes would resume.
And there is also gossip that the college entrance examination will be stopped.
Their eyes were all red, and even Qiao Zhiyuan, who had been the most noisy before, was a little confused.
If they can't take the college entrance examination, then what are they still doing in high school? Will they come back to work in the brigade to earn work?
The factories and various units and departments in the city have not recruited workers for a long time, and the road into the city has been broken, and there is so little hope for this one.
There is another first grade in the Alpine Brigade, the number of students has increased, and the teachers are more difficult, so several high school students have set their sights on the position of elementary school teachers.
The same is to earn a share of work, but there is a difference in what kind of work is done.
Qiao's father does not interfere in the affairs of the school, and most of the decisions about the selection of teachers are in Bai Meilan's hands, and Chen Dongfang and Qiao Yibing can't influence it too much.
Who made Bai Meilan not a member of the brigade, strictly speaking, she was also sent by the education system, and she has confidence.
There is only one high school student in the fourth production team, and that is Qiao Qiuyue's cousin Qiao Qiuyu.
Gao Yulian came to Qiao's father once to ask about the situation outside. If there is no hope of going to school, she will have to rearrange her granddaughter's future.
Generally speaking, after the girls in the countryside reach the age of sixteen, the family begins to look at each other for them, and then goes through a process, and most of them are married around the age of eighteen.
And Qiao Qiuyu is now eighteen years old because she is in high school, she is an old girl, if the college entrance examination is hopeless, then the only thing left is to get married.
In this regard, Qiao's father did not give a positive statement, only said to listen to the radio and see the situation.
In fact, what the future will look like is basically predictable.
Qiao Jiayue didn't know much about these high school students, but it was Qiao Qiuyue who came to complain to herself, and she only knew a little.
It turned out that Qiao Qiuyu didn't believe in those gossip, thinking that high school would resume classes sooner or later, so he would read books at home all day long and do nothing.
"I used to be proud to have such a cousin who went to high school, but now it seems that she is purely afraid of hardship and does not want to work in the fields. ”
Qiao Qiuyue stretched out her hand, "My hands are full of calluses, Qiao Qiuyue's hands are very white and tender, why?"
"Because she can read?" Qiao Jiayue tilted her head and said, "If you study seriously, you can do it too." ”
"Come on, I know I'm not the stuff of reading. Qiao Qiuyue waved her hand, "Besides, my father and mother are not so easy to speak." ”
"Then how does your family plan to arrange your cousin?" Qiao Jiayue recalled, she didn't have much impression of Qiao Qiuyu, and she looked very quiet.
"I don't know, it's all going on, I guess I'm going to break up. Qiao Qiuyue said indifferently, "Anyway, it's better for her not to be a teacher, I'm annoying her." ”
"Primary school is not so easy to enter, and Teacher Bai will carefully screen it. Qiao Jiayue still believes in Bai Meilan very much.
"I hope so. Qiao Qiuyue grabbed Qiao Jiayue's hand, "Let's go, let's go up the mountain to pick fruits, this time Zhongni [scientific name Myrtle] can eat it." ”
"Wait, I'll call Pinkie. Qiao Jiayue also likes to eat this wild fruit, although after eating too much, the whole lips and tongue are black and black, and even constipation, but its taste is lovely.
After two days, Qiao Jiayue finally saw Qiao Qiuyue, a tall and thin girl, looking at Wen Jing, as if the wind would fall.
"Jiayue, I heard that you have a lot of books at home, can I borrow two?" Qiao Qiuyue said softly, her voice soft and not annoying.
Qiao Jiayue lowered her eyelids, "I don't have any books at home, but there are a lot of comic books, do you want to read them?"
Qiao Qiuyu didn't expect Qiao Jiayue to refuse, her eyes widened slightly, "But Qiuyue said that you have a lot of books at home, don't worry, I will cherish it very much, and return it as soon as I finish reading." ”
Qiao Jiayue pursed her lips and shook her head resolutely, "No." ”
The corners of Qiao Qiuyu's curved mouth immediately fell, and his eyes were covered with a layer of mist, "Jiayue, do you hate me?"
Qiao Jiayue didn't want to talk back, so she turned around and went into the house directly. She knew that she was very rude like this, and she would definitely be criticized when she was seen by Qiao's mother.
But in her previous life, she was too impressed by Qiao's mother being taken away because of notebooks, and others because of some books or some remarks.
Except for a few books at home, she put away all the others, borrowed books, and it was free.
Qiao Qiuyu lowered his eyes, his fingers were clenched, and his fingertips turned white, which showed how hard he worked.
She knew that Qiao Qiuyue definitely didn't say anything good about herself, this stinky girl was really bad!
Qiao Hongzhi and Du Yueping came back from the mountain and saw a young girl standing at the door of their house and looked at it curiously.
Qiao Qiuyu missed this opportunity, and hurriedly shouted: "Hongzhi, I heard that you have a lot of books at home, can you lend me two?" I will return them soon." ”
"Books, there are no books at home, there are some villain books, do you want them?" Qiao Hongzhi thought for a while, the books at home are their learning materials, and they can't see people, and only villain books can be borrowed.
Qiao Qiuyu's face couldn't help but turn white, the same rhetoric, could it be that they colluded?
"Really, I'll borrow it. Qiao Qiuyue smiled uncomfortably and turned to leave.
Du Yueping went into the house and poured himself a bowl of water and asked Qiao Jiayue: "Are there very few people in your brigade who have books?"
Du Yueping thought that in Haishi, not to mention every household, most people have more or less one or two books at home.
"Books are too expensive, and there are few literate people. Qiao Hong replied quickly, "The number of literate people in our brigade is already the largest in the nearby brigade, but it doesn't mean that we have the leisure to buy books to read." ”
He also meant to mock Qiao Qiuyu when he said this, everyone was still struggling to eat enough and get dressed, but she had the leisure to read a book.
