Chapter 4 Innocent Mother

"It was too hot outside, and we went to the library at four or five o'clock in the afternoon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Chen Tingting replied, and immediately went over to help her mother pick up vegetables.

Chen Tingting's mother took out the vegetables from the package, a bag of live vannamei shrimp and poured it into a bucket to keep it fresh, a bag of jasper-like snails raised in a stainless steel basin to let it climb the mud and sand from its body, and a large bag of green lantern pepper and a small bundle of leeks were poured on the ground and asked Chen Tingting to remove the yellow leaves from the leeks.

"Mom, what kind of leeks did you buy today! There are thick and thin, different lengths, there are a lot of yellow leaves, and some of the young leaves inside are yellow, it is not good at first glance, is it a sick leek?" Chen Tingting asked her mother.

"Where to get sick, the weather is too hot, normal leeks are like this, just like people, they can't stay up to the heat. This is all said by the uncle who sells leeks. Chen Tingting's mother was talking while looking for scissors in the cupboard.

"Mom, you must have been cheated by profiteers again. Chen Tingting picked up vegetables and pointed out that her mother was gullible and blindly obedient.

"Tingting, you have to learn to believe in others, just like you believe in tomorrow. "Mom's teachings are always very distant.

"Well, bread is going to be there! What age is that? Like the little food poem you wrote. "Huangqiao Baked Cakes", Huangqiao Baked Cakes! The most delicious food in the world. My favorite. As I eat it, I can taste a strong patriotic fervor! I eat it, and my chest is full of pride in the struggle for justice! When I eat it, my life illuminates the sky like the sun!" Chen Tingting recited the poems written by her mother when she was a student, and she was particularly energetic.

"Don't make fun of my youth. I especially believe in those who come from the countryside, just as I believe in your grandmother. They are hardworking and kind, and never cheat people. These dishes were all sold by a rural uncle who sold watermelons. After Chen Tingting's mother finished speaking, she looked for scissors in the cupboard.

"I said why leeks are so bad, it turns out that they are not produced by professional vegetable farmers. Professional and non-specific are different, professional personnel are masters, experts, non-professional personnel are migrant workers, and the treatment is different. Chen Tingting talked about the difference between a master and a migrant worker, which was particularly contagious.

Her mother laughed and whispered, "Your father is also a migrant worker, and his writing is very good, not worse than the writers in the city, why?"

"My dad graduated from college and is an excellent people's teacher, and he is a math teacher, with a good mind and a rational mind. She is the son of a farmer, and she has a better conscience, and she will not intrigue for selfish gain. Those ignorant and ignorant peasant workers have no way to compare with him, and the writers in the city are fighting for fame and fortune all day long, not caring about the people's suffering, unable to hear the voice of the people, and are not qualified to compare with him. Chen Tingting said confidently.

"Son, people should be modest, do you remember what the teacher said? Scholars are not as good as people in the market, they learn from each other, learn from each other's strengths, and are the real laborers of our society. Labor is the most glorious! It is wrong and ungrateful for you to often despise peasant workers. Did you know that the house we live in was built by migrant workers. Chen Tingting's mother couldn't talk about anger when she talked about this, but she was more excited.

"Where did you say that the uncle who sold watermelons? I like to eat watermelons, why don't you sell one and come back?" Chen Tingting remembered something and asked.

"Not far. It's hard to get it when I first came, mainly because I was afraid that the shrimp would be crushed to death, so I didn't buy it. You like to eat, ask your dad to buy a few in the evening. ”

"Why buy it at night?" Chen Tingting asked.

"In the evening, they are going home, and everything is sold at a reduced price, cheap. ”

"It's cheap and not good, it's all picked up by others, and it's even worse. I'm going to buy it now. After Chen Tingting finished speaking, she was about to get up and go out.

"Okay! you pick up the food first. I know you're a lot of things when you do them. Change it today. "Chen Tingting's mother is smart today.

"I don't take the pepper, it's spicy. Chen Tingting didn't succeed in her heart, so she stood up and prepared to leave forcibly for a reason.

"Mother is not human!" said her mother angrily, and went to coring the bell peppers, and she poured them all into the pool, put them on, and pressed the bell peppers under the water, and took out the core by the feeling in her hands.

Chen Tingting saw that her mother was angry, and she couldn't leave, it would make her mother uncomfortable, so she stood by and watched her mother do things. She watched her mother do it one by one, and immediately grabbed a few bell peppers, pulled out the core directly, and said to her mother: "We can put the shrimp in the bell peppers, fry them in oil, and they taste very good, just like the signature dish in the aftertaste restaurant." ”

"Are your hands spicy?" her mother asked, looking at her.

"Didn't feel it. Chen Tingting said with a smile.

"I think you smile beautifully, why do you get angry at people so often?" her mother asked her.

There is also a proverb: Smile a little, ten years less, laugh more is indispensable. After Chen Tingting finished speaking, she went to play with snails.

"What's indispensable? The first time I heard it, you read it from there. Her mother asked her.

"I don't remember, I must have seen somewhere. Chen Tingting said.

"I also think that you memorize after studying, and you can't create such philosophical words. Her mother kept whispering to her mouth.

"Mom, why don't you give cram school to your students? Many children have joined cram schools, and only you and Dad have nothing to do, don't you feel bored?" Chen Tingting asked her mother.

"As a teacher, you should not ignore the student's right to rest for the sake of a few make-up fees. What's more, teachers can't engage in paid tutoring. Her mother said earnestly.

"There are so many teachers out there who run tutoring classes, and I don't believe they will not charge for it. In these days, many people are selfish, especially teachers, who simply do not sacrifice their rest time for the sake of the future of their students. After Chen Tingting finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue.

"This issue needs to be looked at in two parts. For example, if you go to the library to read today, it is the aunt inside who sacrificed the opportunity to rest and help you study and become talents. I can't imagine that you don't study, you make trouble in it, and influence other people to read, do you think such people are still worthy of education?" her mother asked.

"It's not worth educating. Chen Tingting knew that she was talking about herself, and she also pretended to explain, "Those people are gangsters, and they have no educational value at all." I'm in favor of no tuition during the holidays!"

"If you want to go to tutoring, I will also tutor you, as long as it is studying, it is not a bad thing. Therefore, the wind of tutoring cannot be stopped at all. Where there is a market, there are businessmen, and those who are businessmen who sell knowledge will not be able to generate children's wisdom at all, and will only make children more and more stupid, and finally lose their ability to learn and self-confidence in life. "Mom is very fond of talking about education.

"Mom is excellent, worthy of being an excellent people's teacher in the city!" Chen Tingting said proudly.
