Chapter Seventy-Four: It's Not Pig Urine Bubbles That Are Playing
For children, killing the pig for the New Year is to open their little belly to eat a happy big fat meat that flows from a bite, and a pork liver soup that is sweet to the mouth...... As long as you can eat, you can eat as much as you want. Today, adults will never take advantage of the guests' inattention and pull you to say things like eating less and hospitality, let alone plucking your ears because you eat more.
Of course, in addition to being able to eat as much as you like, there is also a pig urine bubble that everyone is looking forward to, in previous years, when killing the New Year's pigs, don't talk about hairy stones, thin dogs, and even girls like Manmei and Xiaomei are all around to watch, waiting for the pig urine bubble.
Not this year, because Teacher Wang, Teacher Zhang and Principal Liu from the Township Primary and Secondary School were sitting in the sunning valley, accompanied by adults drinking tea, chatting, and basking in the sun.
When the sun just came out, a group of children of all sizes followed the adults up the mountain, and sent blood food to their ancestors, from Li Jiaming, Mao Tong to Xiaomei, a group of little radish heads all came to say hello to the teacher in a regular manner, standing in the sun-grained flat and listening to them talk about the township primary and secondary schools, even adults like Uncle Chuan Zong have to be the same, because Mr. Zhang is his teacher.
The merger of schools has been completed, and the average performance of Yinzitan Village Primary School is only second only to the township primary and secondary schools, far ahead of other village primary schools. Therefore, Mr. Wang, who has a good leadership, not only continued to serve as Li Jiaming's class teacher, but also promoted to the teaching director of the township primary and secondary schools, from a village primary school principal to the third-in-command of the new school, second only to the principal and deputy principals; This is also the reason why Uncle Meng killed the New Year's pig today, and only invited Teacher Wang, Teacher Zhang, and Principal Liu's family, and the other four teachers were in a bad mood and politely declined.
However, Mr. Wang thinks this is a good thing, the four teachers are only in their twenties and early thirties, and the road of teaching is not working, so it is better to change careers as soon as possible, and don't delay your youth with a salary of more than 100 yuan. This time, the county has unprecedentedly turned private teachers on a large scale, which not only caused a sensation in the whole province, but even CCTV came to interview, and it is impossible to let private teachers become regular teachers in the future.
The economy is the main reason, and the economic development of forestry counties is cyclical, and when there is wood to sell, the economy is good, and when there is no wood to sell, you have to tighten your belts and live. After the good days of selling wood and high prices in the past few years, the county's finances will definitely be tight, and it is impossible to have this ability to turn private teachers into regulars. The second thing is the political achievements of the leaders, and this time the private teachers have become regulars on a large scale, and they have gained great social recognition, and the secretaries and county magistrates are very likely to be promoted, and if the successor does such a good thing again, how can he show his ability? Besides, with the passage of time, there will be more and more normal graduates, so how can there be any need to hire private and substitute teachers.
Of course, there is another reason that no one else knows, and Li Jiaming, who was standing by and listening, knew that the iron-fisted prime minister was about to suppress local forces, and it was impossible for locals to serve as the main local leaders. If the locals do not have power, will the officials in other places seek the welfare of the locals?
The fourth brother, who was qualified to sit and chat with the teachers, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Principal Liu, didn't Teacher Mao teach for so many years in vain?"
Principal Liu is not easy to explain to the fourth brother, but fortunately, Mr. Zhang is a Chinese teacher and fifth-grade class teacher who has taught the fourth brother for five years, and he is also one of the teachers who will meet the fourth brother in the future.
"Alas, he was unlucky, only a year away. is only to blame himself, Cheng Lin asked him to do correspondence courses a few years ago, and he always delayed this year and next year. If he was already engaged in correspondence courses, this time Mr. Wang would have helped him speak, and Principal Liu would have an explanation for his superiors. Jiade, this time the private teacher turned into a regular teacher, if there is no strong reason, no one can be accommodating. ”
Teacher Zhang is a good person, although he can scold people and pull his ears in his studies, he is still very easy-going in life; Teacher Wang is not, but is famous for his strictness, and after Teacher Zhang finished speaking, his frightened eyes swept around, and said word by word: "You girls have to remember, you have to do anything when you think of it, and you must not procrastinate! Opportunities are only for those who are prepared, you know?"
Li Jiaming and the others stood with their hands tied and said in unison: "Got it!"
"You, why are you so serious for the New Year?"
Teacher Liu made fun of the old classmates, and said with a smile: "Let's go play." Jiaming, give them a few days off, and play when it's time to play. Children, it's not good to be too strict. ”
"Yes", Li Jiaming glanced at Mr. Wang, and saw that he did not object, so he smiled and agreed, "This year, on the tenth day of the new year, everyone will have a holiday." ”
'Oh', the full sister cheered, and pulled the little sister to run to the uncle who was disemboweling the pig, and they walked away under the authority of Mr. Wang, and waited until they turned the kitchen of Li Jiaming's house before running away. It's so cool, you can sleep lazily for half a month, and you don't have to run!
Chatting with teachers is a very face-saving thing for people in the countryside, not to mention the principals of primary and secondary schools in the township.
But the uncle is a very discerning and urban person, and when he saw that the primary school students invited the principals of the township primary and secondary schools, he knew that they were definitely not here for a meal, or for which students they valued. When the children were gone, Bertol left with his four sons. As soon as they left, Uncle Chuan also had some understanding, and called Li Jiaming over under the pretext of going to something.
"Jiaming, Principal Liu must have something to do here, right?"
"Oh, the second uncle didn't work on the construction site, he just came to ask about the situation. The school is about to build a new building, and a smart person like him will definitely only ask irrelevant people like the second uncle. ”
"I said how could he, forget it, they are all smart people, you let the people tell the truth, don't miss other people's big things. ”
"Hmm", Li Jiaming carried the freshly boiled water, helped the three teachers and the second uncle refill a cup of tea, and whispered in the second uncle's ear, and the voice that the people next to him could hear: "Second uncle, what does Principal Liu ask, you can tell the truth, don't miss the school's major events." ”
"Hmm"
Li Jiaming went back to the kitchen and put the kettle, explained a few words in a low voice to his grandmother, who was basking in the sun in the sun, and helped her old man to sit in the sunbathing flat of her grandfather's house, and said with a smile in the appreciative eyes of the elders: "Principal Liu, Teacher Wang, Teacher Zhang, I also went to play." ”
"Get out!"
Li Jiaming and other teachers scolded and rolled out, and also ran to the place where the pig was killed, how many years have the pig urine bubbles not been played? What does the adult's business have to do with their own little girl, it is better to have fun playing urine bubbles in the aftertaste. By the time he got to his uncle, Mao Tong had already turned over all the inside of the pig's urine bubble, and was squatting on the ground with the dog, scraping off a layer of green cement-like dirt that had stuck to it with tiles.
Liu Shasha, who was playing with the third sister in the attic and helping her practice speaking, saw that Li Jiaming had run away, and also ran over to join in the fun. How dirty is the pig urine bubble when it is not cleaned? The foreign Liu Shasha immediately frowned, "Hey, it's dirty!"
Li Jiaming didn't bother to turn his head, and continued to stare at Mao Tong and them to scrape the urine bubbles, this goblin behind him was not a mortal who ate fireworks in the world, mortal things, how could she feel good?
But wearing the new clothes sent by his father and eldest sister, combing two pigtails, and the clothes on his body are as foreign as the two little girls in the city, Manmei and Xiaomei, and he is willing to take care of this beautiful young lady, and by the way, Jin Mei and Gui Mei are the same. When the goblin entered the door just now, he gave each of them a large sticker of the flower fairy, and it was easy to untie the beam from last time. Four mountain girls in new foreign clothes, no different from other mountain skins and slugs, squatted on the ground, and urged while explaining to the beautiful young lady: "Sister Sasha, pig urine bubbles are fun, more fun than leather balls." Brother Mao, hurry up, hurry up!"
Holding his hands like an adult, leaning on the door to watch the lively big dog, he has no interest in playing this, but he still smiled and looked at his successor Mao Tong and the thin dog who scraped the urine bubble, and reminded: "Don't worry, scrape slowly." If you don't shave it well, it will be easy to break. ”
As soon as the big dog said this, the movements of the hair stone and the thin dog were slower, for fear that the shaving would not be good, and the urine bubble would burst after blowing it up and not playing a few times. Finally, after scraping, the slightly older Gui Mei has already loaded the stove ash from the kitchen, and the hair stone and the fine dog rubbed the scraped pig urine bubble several times with the stove ash, and then put it in front of the nose to smell it, and then went to wash it without the smell of urine.
The cleaned pig urine bubble is snow-white, but it is a technical task to blow it up, and it also requires strength. You have to blow for a while, stop rubbing, and then continue blowing. When the hair was tired, Li Jiaming blew and then changed to a thin dog. In the past, this work was all done by big dogs, but now Li Jiaming is in charge, and they are all eager to try when they see the full sisters, and they also let a few of them play with their little ones.
It's useless, I said that this is a combination of strength and skill, from Gui Mei to Xiao Mei to Liu Shasha, who is particularly curious, every little girl is flushed, and she can't let the urine bubble blow a little bigger.
"Brother blows, brother blows"
In the eagerness of the full sister, Li Jiaming took the pig urine bubble and continued to blow and knead it vigorously, and when he was tired, he changed the hair and dog, and changed the person again, and finally blew the pig urine bubble into a round ball the size of a football.
"Pee bubbles!"
That's right, it's indeed a urine blister. The urine bubble blown into the size of a football is like a football, and it is a lot of fun to be kicked around by a bunch of girls and girls. The half-grown child who has looked like an adult is a big dog, and he is holding a bamboo stick next to him to watch the two big yellow dogs, and the pig urine bubble is the favorite of dogs, and they take it away without paying attention, and they can't chase it if they want to.
Liu Shasha doesn't find peeing fun, but she also plays with a group of children, and since she learned the meaning of 'why not eat minced meat', she has been trying to integrate into the countryside, instead of the forest farm where she used to be. From this point of view, it makes sense that she can be so demonic in the future, not entirely because of her appearance, family, and her extraordinary intelligence.
Li Jiaming also played with a group of children for a while, kicked a few times, and clapped a few times, and felt that it was too enjoyable to stand next to him and help the big dog watch the two big yellow dogs. The big dog, who has been able to make money and seen the world, saw that his younger brothers and sisters were so happy to play with a pig urine bubble, and said to Li Jiaming with a smile: "Jiaming, everyone likes to play so much, I'll buy you a ball after the New Year." ”
"Thank you, Brother Dog, they won't like it. ”
"Why? This urine bubble bursts after playing in one day, and the ball can be played every day. ”
Li Jiaming turned his face with a smile and joked: "There are also balls in the school, are you so happy to play with the thin dog?"
If you don't want it, if you have a ball, it may affect your younger brothers' learning. The dog didn't have such a heavy desire to learn, but Liu Shasha, who had just run by the side, stopped and asked, "Why?"
"No why", Li Jiaming responded, not interested in explaining to this well-off and brilliant little girl, just like a poor man trying to explain to a rich man that fat meat is delicious, this thing is clear but will make people laugh.
At this age, especially in the countryside, the ball is a luxury, but there is still something to play in school. Pig urine bubbles used to be a rare toy for hairy dogs and thin dogs, but since Mr. Wang became the principal, there are better basketball and table tennis to play. Today they are still so happy to play with pig urine bubbles, not playing with urine bubbles, but a kind of joy after complete relaxation. It is also very tiring to study and practice sports every day, and Li Jiaming still follows behind with a small bamboo tip, and whips them a few times from time to time.
Finally on vacation, you don't even have to do your homework, don't worry about being beaten for more than ten days, you can sleep lazily and don't run, you don't have to be interrupted when you're happy, you can play how you want!
Liu Shasha can easily be admitted to Peking University, can she explain to her that if she doesn't study hard today, she will have to bask in the sun, cut down trees, farm fields, and feed pigs tomorrow?
Li Jiaming didn't want to explain, but Liu Shasha wanted to know, the ball was cleaner than the pig's bladder, why didn't these children like to play?
For her question, Teacher Liu, who was full of steel and cement, was perfunctory, and her mother, who was chatting with Mrs. Chen and the second aunt, saw when she first entered the house. The fourth brother was correcting the pronunciation of the third sister, and Li Jiaming was reprimanding Mao Yan for not reciting "Charcoal Burner", and patiently explained to her: "Sasha, their first task is to study, after all, smart children are very few, and most of them still have to rely on hard work to be successful." They don't play with toys, they relax after the end of intense study, and the thing you're talking about is actually no different from a ball. “
