Chapter 68: The Controversy
Wu Shizhu's self-introduction was unanimously praised by everyone, and she resolved all the embarrassment in just a few words, neither insulting the teacher, but also looking humble. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Old Man Yan praised Wu Shizhu even more, and let everyone eat with a smile.
After lunch, Mr. Yan arranged for the students to rest for a while, but everyone was unwilling, saying that they hadn't talked enough. Old Man Yan waved his hand, no matter what, let these monkeys go. Yan Wenyuan took his classmate to the study, and finally pulled Wu Shizhu hard, Zhao Xiujin saw it and followed in. Yan Wenyuan frowned, but there were other people there, so he didn't say anything.
This time, the five big boys didn't talk about Gonzo again, but about the current situation. Zhao Xiujin didn't know what they were talking about at all, and couldn't interject at all, while Wu Shizhu never planned to speak, although Yan Wenyuan and Ma Poyu both looked at her and asked her to try to express her point of view, but she only responded by shaking her head, and gradually everyone stopped asking her. Zhao Xiujin was very happy to see this situation, and after a while, he felt that it was really boring, so he found an excuse and walked out.
The harmonious atmosphere created disagreements when it came to the current situation and education. This year is the thirteenth year of the Republic of China, and in October last year, Cao Kun, a direct relative, was elected president by bribery. Natu was the most indignant about this matter, and scolded this person as a "chaotic minister and thief" and scolded him as Yuan Shikai's lackey. Yuan Shikai is the mortal enemy of all their descendants of the Qing Dynasty and all the children of the Eight Banners. Although Yuan Shikai has been an ancient man for many years, time still can't reduce their hatred of Yuan Shikai. In their eyes, Cao Kun is Yuan Shikai's right-hand man, a veritable lackey of Yuan Shikai, and now he is becoming the president of the Republic of China by bribery, which is really shameless. Ma Polu was also more excited, he had always hated this kind of warlord melee, thinking that it was the common people who suffered from the warlord melee. Shangguan Yuwen is relatively mild, he doesn't have any political tendencies, in his heart, he only has knowledge and family, and he doesn't care about anything else. Liu Dahai, on the other hand, spoke for the authorities, believing that this was a normal historical trend. Yan Ping didn't say a word. Natu saw the indifference of Yan Ping and Shangguan Yuwen, although he was also a little angry, but the focus of his artillery fire was still aimed at Liu Dahai, who supported the authorities, thinking that he had no principles. If the dispute is only a minor contradiction, the different views of Fan Yuanlian, the newly appointed education chief last month, seem a little too intense.
Fan Yuanlian was appointed as the Minister of Education on January 12, the 13th year of the Republic of China, but he never took office, which caused a lot of public opinion.
Although Natu believes that Fan Yuanlian's talent is not worthy of the great responsibility of the chief of education, he also supports him not to take up the post. Shangguan Yuwen thinks that Fan Yuanlian is not knowledgeable enough and does not have a talent like Mr. Cai Yuanpei, but he has no opinion on his appointment as the chief of education. Ma Poyu felt that Fan Yuanlian was very good, so he shouldn't be a big warlord. Liu Dahai felt that Fan Yuanlian was a little ignorant of current affairs. On this matter, Yan Wenyuan put forward his own opinion, he believes that the current situation is turbulent, and it is understandable that Fan Yuanlian will not come to the post.
Five people with five ideas, each with their own opinions, and no one could convince anyone. Just when several people were arguing, a gentle female voice sounded.
"Can I say what I think", Wu Shizhu didn't want to see them really hurt their harmony, it was normal to have different opinions on the issue, and it didn't hurt to have a little dispute, but if there was a stalemate, it would be easy to have negative emotions. When the five big boys heard this sudden girl, they all looked at Wu Shizhu, and they had already forgotten that there was a sixth person in this room.
"Okay, Sister Shizhu, you can say it", Ma Poyu said with a smile, and encouraged Wu Shizhu with his eyes.
"Okay, you kid, my sister is called", Natu patted Ma Poyu's shoulder and laughed, Shangguan Yuwen and Liu Dahai also laughed involuntarily, only Yan Ping frowned.
"Then I'll give you my opinion. Chief Fan Yuanlian, I don't know much, but I have read some reports and comments about him from the newspapers, both good and bad. So I don't have enough factual basis to say anything about his knowledge or talent. What I want to talk about now is his heart, his heart dedicated to education. Everyone has their own strengths, maybe you are good at foreign languages, maybe you are good at math, maybe you are good at business, no one is perfect. It's just that some people are lucky enough to do what they're good at, while others aren't so lucky. Maybe our President Fan happens to belong to the latter, but I don't know. Whether he is lucky or not, he is dedicated to education and does his best, and I admire him very much for this alone. If I had to find one that wasn't, it was that he caught up with such turbulent times as China. In such an era, how many people can do what they love? How many people can be left alone? Regardless of whether General Fan comes to take up his post or not, whether he is willing to obey the new government or not, he is working hard for China's education cause and for the rise and fall of our nation in his own way."
Wu Shizhu finished speaking, but there was no response for a long time, and I don't know how long it took before I heard Ma Poyu applaud: "Okay", everyone reacted and applauded. Whether they agreed with what Wu Shizhu said or not, they were all shocked, they had never considered the problem from this perspective. From this moment on, they really looked at this little girl, and now they knew that what Yan Ping said was not an exaggeration at all. Yan Ping has a smile in her eyes, although she has been with Wu Shizhu for so many years, she is still deeply attracted to her, she can always surprise people.
After that, when they discussed anything, they would ask Wu Shizhu's opinion, but Wu Shizhu would remain silent most of the time, just listening quietly from the sidelines.
Unconsciously, the sun quietly hid the figure, and the night was approaching, and the four boys had to say goodbye reluctantly. At the time of parting, all the people's names for Wu Shizhu have become "Sister Shizhu", and Zhao Xiujin is called "Zhao Xiujin", which makes Zhao Xiujin Dawei annoyed, but he dare not show it.
The eighth day of the first month
"Second sister, let's go out today."
"Today? Not today, I'm busy today", after speaking, it didn't feel right, and turned his head to look at Wu Shizhu, "Fourth sister, what's wrong?" You've never asked to go out of the house, and I've always pulled you in."
"It's a little thing, and it's an important thing, you put aside the things at hand, let's go visit Mr. Liang Jinliang today."
"Who?"
