"I don't remember exactly. Geng Hao thought about it, countless professions flashed in his mind, but he couldn't find the one he had set up when he was a child, "However, it's definitely not a teacher." ”

"Usually girls are teachers, and boys are scientists, policemen, and so on. Zhong Xiu wanted to laugh when he remembered his naïve self when he was a child, but now he feels that he was too naïve at that time, "However, before I graduated from university, I also thought that I would be a teacher in the coast, and I also took the teaching qualification certificate." At that time, I had been preparing carefully for a long time. Although I now realize that it is not really the ideal that suits me, I have never regretted it. After all, if you haven't worked hard, how do you know?"

"That's right. I set my ambition in junior high school that I must be a useful person when I grow up, and I have been working hard to achieve excellence in everything. When I transferred to an English major in college, I also thought that I wanted to be a useful person, even if I went to a field that I was not good at, it didn't matter, as long as I worked hard to achieve excellence. Geng Hao said lightly, "After graduation, I want to enter an excellent company, so that I can prove that I am a useful person......

Geng Hao suddenly couldn't continue. He is now wondering if choosing a large company to be a good translator is the right fit for him. If his ideal is really that, why didn't he have too many mental struggles when he decided to give up the offer of the top 500, and after giving up, he didn't have too many regrets and reluctance?

Zhong Xiu tilted his head and just quietly accompanied Geng Hao forward. Walking back and forth in the cotton boots made by the eldest sister, the snow water had already jumped over her thick white soles and seeped into the shoes, and the shoes had already become wet and cold, and the upper of the shoes was also yellow. Suddenly, I missed the roads of the big city. In big cities, there will be sanitation workers to clear the snow in time, and the hardened roads will not become muddy with snow and water, and it doesn't matter how you jump on the road in leather boots.

Looking up at the potholed and muddy road, tall buildings come to mind.

"I think ......" Zhong Xiu turned his head to look at Geng Hao, a smile slowly appeared on his serious face, it was satisfaction with his current life, "The real ideal and destination may be the idea that you have never given up no matter how you choose the path of life, no matter what you want to do, even if it is insignificant." ”

Geng Hao half-understood this, but just thought back on his life process, is there really such a thought, is it that he has never let go?

"My dream was to become a teacher in a big city, broaden my horizons and live a prosperous life. At the same time, I have always told myself that when I earn money, I will build a small villa here in Mo Village, and when I am old, I will come back to support the elderly, and when the time comes, I will tell the people in the village about my knowledge. In the four years of college, I have always thought that I want to earn more money and donate it to the village, so that the village will become as beautiful as the city, and life will be as convenient as the city. These little thoughts are what I have been insisting on, but I have not noticed. ”

Zhong Xiu gently told her about her original journey, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly.

"It wasn't until I graduated that I began to doubt my ideals that I realized that what I wanted more was to go back to the village to build. Although I am very busy every day, in order to solve some problems in the village, I am very tired from running up and down, but seeing the village developing in a better direction, I know that I am one step closer to my dream, although it is painful and happy?"

Geng Hao was a little envious of Zhong Xiulai, envious that she had found her true home and knew clearly what she was going to do.

"What you say makes a lot of sense, and I'll think about it. ”

"Why did you suddenly come to teach after you graduated?" Zhong Xiu suddenly asked Geng Hao.

Geng Hao said without hesitation: "Because something happened, my roommate suddenly mentioned that the school has a volunteer teaching plan, and remembered that he had always wanted to teach. If you teach first, you can find a job, but if you look for a job first, you may not have the opportunity to teach. After all, money is endless, and becoming an office worker should always feel busy and feel that you can't spare time. After careful consideration, I signed up. I feel that if I don't teach once in my life, I will regret it when I die. ”

Zhong Xiu's eyes lit up, and she said, "What is your desire to teach?" This is not the first time she has asked Geng Hao, but now in this situation, she wants to ask Geng Hao again.

Geng Hao blurted out again: "I hope that someone can change their life under the influence of the volunteer teacher like me." This sentence, he has already said that his mouth is rotten, and he is afraid that Zhong Xiu will be bored when he says it, and he can't remember the first time he said this to Zhong Xiu. But as long as he was asked this question, it was his only answer, and he couldn't find a second answer.

Zhong Xiu was surprised, and looked at Geng Hao's gaze becoming meaningful: "Then after you come to teach, are you happy?"

"Being a teacher is harder than you think. Geng Hao couldn't deny it. But when I finished the class successfully for the first time, when I saw Zhang Dafei studying hard under the leadership of Zhou Yu, when I saw the English fever a while ago, when I saw the lanterns of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when I saw Mo Nan constantly relying on his own actions to fulfill his commitments......

He was happy. This is also undeniable.

"I think you know that. Zhong Xiu crossed his hands and let out a long sigh of relief, "Cultivating batches of outstanding students, isn't he also a useful person?"

Geng Hao understood what she meant, and his mind still subconsciously wanted to veto this statement, and grinned: "Cultivating batches of outstanding students, isn't this kind of talk too big? I can't even control myself, how can I take on other people's lives?"

"That kind of person who is useful is quite a big talk. Zhong Xiu retorted.

"I admit that I am very happy to see my progress and the changes in my students. But this is just the fulfillment of a careful wish. Geng Hao tried his best to quibble, and his mind was still telling himself over and over again that he had now fulfilled his wish, and when the time came, he could go directly. He wants to go to a big city, to a big company, to be a translator, to become an excellent talent!

Zhong Xiu stared at him, his eyes were full of disbelief, he nodded perfunctorily, stopped arguing, and continued to walk forward. Geng Hao followed beside him, using gestures to prove the firmness of his words to Zhong Xiu, but he didn't know whether to convince Zhong Xiu or convince himself, and finally just asked, "Do you understand?"

"Well, I understand. Zhong Xiu nodded to him very seriously. But Geng Hao still felt that he saw distrust and perfunctory in her eyes, and he was a little anxious in his heart, and he wanted to hold a debate meeting, but in the face of Zhong Xiuyun's indifferent appearance, he was still helplessly defeated after holding back for a long time, and he was a little disappointed in his heart, and he was a little empty, so he just said softly, "You don't understand." ”

"You don't understand yourself, and it's too difficult for others to understand. Zhong Xiu's tone was brisk, with a ridiculous atmosphere, "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge." When I got home, I asked about the smell of my sister's food. ”

As soon as Geng Hao looked up, the eye-catching red house was in front of him, and the aroma of food quietly drifted into his nose, slowly burrowing into his body, healing his lost heart little by little. The cooking cooked by Sister Zhong Ling really has a kind of magic like no other.

……

After the winter solstice, it was Monday, the first class in the morning, and the second grade was a Chinese self-study class.

"Such a simple word, I will know you, will you?" Mo Nan lay on Mo Xi's table, very angry, blushing and scolding Mo Xi with a red face, scolding Mo Xi with a red face, and talking like a roasted radish, "You can't do this, you don't write it now, what should you do if you take the exam and take the exam?" If you fail the exam, Teacher Geng will be angry and leave, if Teacher Geng leaves, it will be your problem!"

When Mo Xi heard this, his head was buried deeper, and tears fell down.

Principal Huang first spent ten minutes dictating a few Chinese characters, and then spent a few minutes correcting them on the spot, asking them to write each wrong word 20 times. Mo Xi only wrote a few, and all of them were wrong, so all the words he dictated were punished.

After Mo Nan heard about it, he stared at Mo Xi's situation from time to time, and saw that he was distracted by the notebook again, and without writing a word, Mo Nan became angry and urged Mo Xi to write quickly. Mo Xi responded timidly, picked up the pen and wrote tremblingly, and if he copied it, he could still write it wrong, so he wiped it over and over again, back and forth several times, and the book was broken. Mo Nan was even more angry, and directly scolded Mo Xi for being stupid.

"Why are you crying? Turn the page and write quickly. Mo Nan glared at Mo Xi and said fiercely. Mo Nan looks very creamy, he usually rarely kills people, he is a cheater, and now he is not terrible to be fierce, just his weak body and bones, he is a paper tiger. But this does not affect Mo Nan's domineering and his unpleasant speech.

"When did Teacher Geng say that Mo Xi would leave if he failed the exam?" Mo Yuancheng asked Mo Nan with a small face. The other students who were talking about it also looked at Monan. Mo Nan doesn't usually deal with them, and now he doesn't bother to talk to them more, so he just said, "Teacher Geng said that if we all do well in the final exam, he will stay and continue to be a teacher for us." If we don't do well, he won't come next year. ”

"Yes, I heard that yesterday too. "Several babies present yesterday also came out to testify. Principal Huang secretly stood outside, listening to their words, his mind fluctuated for a while, and he forgot to go in time to solve Mo Nan's bullying. Because Mo Yuancheng had already taken the first step to help solve the problem.

"Then you can't bully Mo Xi either. Mo Yuancheng blamed Mo Nan, jumped off his seat, and took a few steps to Mo Xi, "Mo Xi writes slowly." I teach him to write, and you write your own. ”

Mo Nan pursed his lips, returned to his place, prepared to write silently, and poked Huang Jiujiu, who was in a daze: "Hurry up and write, you are so wrong." ”

There were ten people in the second grade, seven or eight of them quieted down and wrote seriously, and the remaining one or two were forced by this atmosphere to pick up the pen in a daze and silently finish writing the punishment. The classroom was quiet, quieter than ever. Principal Huang stood quietly at the door for a while, then took two steps forward, and through the window, he was outside to listen to Geng Hao's English class.

Geng Hao was pasting a white card on the blackboard with snowflakes drawn on it and an English word written in the middle. Most of the students below are waiting seriously, and some are restless, such as Mo Bei. Mo Bei played with pencils for a while, talked to the girl next to her for a while, and ignored her at the same table, so she played with herself again. After Geng Hao finished posting, he turned around and faced all the students: "Now, the season is winter. So, we're cold, aren't we?"
