Chapter 23 Home Visit
Inside, 40-watt light bulbs glow dimly yellow. A hungry spider coils around the wires of a light bulb, moving its legs and feet from time to time, spreading its web, waiting for its prey.
In a humble room, there were four people sitting.
Chen Tianlang rarely appeared as a good student, moved a small horse, and sat respectfully in front of Teacher Qin Zixuan Qin, who came to visit his home.
On both sides of Qin Zixuan are her mother Liu Yuping and her sister Chen Hong, the three of them are like judges in three sessions, and they want to conduct the final trial on Chen Tianlang.
Qin Zixuan, 23 years old this year, is a high-achieving student who graduated from the Chinese Department of Zhengzhou University, and as soon as she graduated, she directly asked to be transferred to Nandu No. 2 High School to teach, because she was born here, grew up and studied here, and has a deep affection for this land.
Now, she has got her wish and has become a Chinese teacher and class teacher in the third class of the second high school. In the past few days of her teaching, she has begun to conduct a very detailed round of home visits for those poor and bad students, and the focus of today's home visit is Chen Tianlang, the handsome young man in front of him.
For some reason, Qin Zixuan always had the illusion that the young man in front of him was not as simple as he looked on the surface.
Before the home visits, she had already investigated the basic situation of many students in detail. For example, this Chen Tianlang, in terms of learning, is actually not bad, Chinese, mathematics and English are in the middle and upper reaches of the three main courses, and there are several times in the top ten in the Chinese exam, which is very rare. In Qin Zixuan's opinion, if he is willing to work hard, he can improve his grades and be admitted to a very good university in the future college entrance examination. In addition, Qin Zixuan also checked Chen Tianlang's previous learning comments, and many teachers' comments on him were almost all: "People are smart and lazy." Therefore, Qin Zixuan classified Chen Tianlang into the category of students who "can be adjusted, can stimulate self-motivation and improve learning ability".
But now, Qin Zixuan was a little skeptical of her judgment, because Chen Tianlang in front of her was too different from other students.
Often go home visits by themselves, most of those students are like rats who have seen cats, and they don't dare to look at themselves, either biting their nails, playing with the corners of their clothes, or just lowering their heads and not saying a word, but Chen Tianlang in front of him looks at himself with a pair of bright eyes, and under the background of the lights, there is no timidity of a young man, but he seems very calm. If you look at his eyes, he is more like an adult who has experienced wind and rain and vicissitudes.
Delusion, this must be an illusion, how can this be. Qin Zixuan felt that this idea was ridiculous.
……
Chen Tianlang is quietly admiring Qin Zixuan with his eyes, even the dim light can't stop this woman's charm, and this kind of charm is not possessed by many little girls and female students, especially the slightly raised corners of the eyes, which can't help but remind people of the appearance in the TV series "A Generation of Empress Wu Zetian" played by Taiwanese actress Pan Yingzi in 1985, but it is a kind of domineering, but this is a kind of coquettishness. A female teacher who teaches and educates people as a model for others has this kind of style, which can't help but surprise people. Look at her again, the overall face is delicate, the waist is slender, wearing a plain long skirt, the waist is narrow, sitting on the chair, the hips are tilted back, and the waist is in a thrilling S arc, making the chest look more and more towering.
Chen Tianlang looked at her appreciatively, completely unaware of how much psychological pressure his gaze had brought to Qin Zixuan.
Qin Zixuan's forehead oozed sweat stains, so she subconsciously wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand.
"Teacher Qin, are you very hot, do you want me to bring you the fan?" Chen Tianlang said with a smile, his tone was sincere and sincere.
"No, no, no, I'm not very hot. Qin Zixuan hurriedly waved her hand.
"That's thirst, then I'll make you a cup of malt milk essence, chrysanthemum brand, it's sweet!" At this moment, Chen Tianlang is completely a good student who respects his teacher.
Obviously, his enthusiasm also infected Qin Zixuan, and he felt that he might have been thinking too much just now, this was simply a scheming student, completely ignoring that from beginning to end Chen Tianlang just said with his mouth dry, but his ass didn't move at all.
"Teacher Qin, our whole family is very happy that you can come here for a home visit...... Otherwise, you educate him first, and I'll make you a cup of tea. Liu Yuping got up to make tea as she spoke, and the elder sister Chen Hong seemed to be bored, so she also got up and went over to help. Leaving Qin Zixuan and Chen Tianlang, a pair of "master and apprentice", you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to speak.
Chen Tianlang never thought that pretending to be a student would be so hard and tired, looking at Qin Zixuan, the Chinese teacher, his brain turned and turned, and he had no choice but to find a topic and said: "Teacher Qin, do you want to watch TV, the TV is in my mother's bedroom, black and white fourteen inches, although it is a little smaller, I can see it very clearly, it seems that the Taiwanese martial arts film "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" will be broadcast tonight, I heard that it is good-looking!"
As if to confirm Chen Tianlang's words, the theme song of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" happened to come from the house---
"The wind is cold, and the snow is drifting. It's a long road, and it's a long way. Looking back at the stars, the past is like a cloud of smoke. I still remember that when I parted, I was left in the snow. Love in the snow, love in the snow...... I didn't wake up from a dream in the snow. Infatuation in exchange, a lifetime of tears ......"
Inside the house, Chen Hong sat at the head of the bed at some point, holding a piece of bun in his hand, sandwiching his own pickles, eating in a big gulp, while watching intently, choking on eating, and drinking a sip of cold water.
On the small TV, there are not very clear subtitles and TV clips, the actor Hu Fei is wearing a cape, holding a long knife, wandering between the ice and snow, the sword and the sword, and the tenderness of the children.
"This kid, why did you go to watch TV again!" Liu Yuping looked at Chen Hong in the room with a thermos flask, and complained loudly.
"The sound of the TV should be quiet, so as not to affect Mr. Qin's home visits. Liu Yuping made tea, brought water, handed it to Qin Zixuan, and then said, "Teacher Qin, even if you criticize him, you can criticize him as much as you want! This kid just owes a cigarette, if he is disobedient, I will whip him again." After saying that, he smiled and left.
Suddenly, it came from the house, "Why do you always only eat steamed buns, do you want me to cook you a bowl of noodles?" "Where has this film been played? Is the protagonist his father dead?"
Chen Tianlang glanced at Qin Zixuan in embarrassment, and found that Qin Zixuan was also looking over here, so he hurriedly said, "Why don't you ...... Shall I move you a chair and go in and have a look?"
Qin Zixuan couldn't hold it back anymore, and said loudly: "I'm not here to watch TV today!"
The sound is crisp and loud.
Chen Tianlang couldn't help but be stunned.
Liu Yuping and Chen Hong in the room were also startled.
Liu Yuping nunu mouth, Chen Hong held the steamed bun in her hand, and the steamed bun was still stuffed in her mouth, tiptoed over, hooked the door with her foot, and quietly closed the door of the house.
After Qin Zixuan lost her temper, she felt much more comfortable.
What kind of family is this, no wonder this Chen Tianlang will not want to make progress and keep skipping school and class, how can such a family environment urge people to make progress? As the saying goes, what kind of environment creates what kind of people. Even parents themselves don't pay attention to the cultivation of their children's learning environment, so what's the use of trying your best as a teacher?
Looking at Qin Zixuan, who was puffing up, Chen Tianlang suddenly spoke, "Teacher Qin, you must be very angry, right?"
Qin Zixuan did not answer.
Chen Tianlang smiled and continued: "My sister is a cotton mill worker. She works in the spinning workshop, with a set of eight hours a day, but often works overtime, working 12 hours at a time, and most of the time she is standing...... Have you ever done the work in the spinning workshop? The workshop has high temperature and high humidity, and you often wear clean and tidy clothes to go in, and when you come out, you are wet all over, 356 days a year, and you often have eczema and prickly heat on your body. ”
"That's not all, some female workers will inevitably doze off at work because they work too long, which is prone to accidents. Last year, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old female worker was dozed off, and her hands were twisted into the doffing machine, and the whole hand was stripped of a layer of skin. ”
"This is my sister's work in a cotton mill, receiving a salary of seventy or eighty yuan a month, but doing the hardest and most tiring work in the world. ”
Chen Tianlang paused and continued: "And my mother, she has no culture, she used to farm, but now the land is contracted to others, and she sews clothes. Sew clothes for me and my sister, help some garment factories sew clothes, brazing trouser legs for a dime, sewing sleeves for two cents, and making a trouser waist for three cents...... Stepping on that sewing machine all day long is like a 'perpetual motion machine' that never gets tired, and stays up all night working desperately to earn a few cents. ”
"Whether it's my mom or my sister, in so much work, in such a hard life, their only fun is to watch TV and watch their favorite TV series. When you are tired of watching, you don't have to think about anything, lie in bed and sleep until dawn. Life seems so simple to them--- only by living simply can you live better, isn't it?"
After Chen Tianlang said this, he shut up.
Because he felt that everything he had to say had already been said.
The lights are dim, and the glow is dim.
Qin Zixuan looked at Chen Tianlang's immature face under the light, and couldn't help but have a strange thought in her heart, what a vicissitudes this young man was.
