Chapter 103: School Begins
The warm wind floated, the autumn cicadas chirped, and the sun sprinkled broken spots from the gaps in the trees, shining on Li Feiyang's face lying on the mat. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The ants on the ground in the woods are diligently dragging the food, and the birds are happily jumping on the forest to feed.
In front of the woods is a small river, the water is clear and shallow, with pale green aquatic plants slowly swaying with the flow of the river, and a reddish-brown sole-sized fish egg is pulled on it. There are already small black spots on the eggs, which are the eyes of the newly developed fish. It doesn't take long for them to hatch in the warm water and survive and swim in the river like their parents.
A few bare-bottomed children were standing in the middle of the river, playing in the water with their little dings exposed.
On the dry ground near the grass by the river, the dung shell lang was swaying and rolling on the dry soil with the wet dung ball, making the soft dung ball slowly dry and hard. The dry ground near the nest is already filled with dung balls the size of small eggs, and their eggs are laid in them.
The long-tailed needles of the big-bellied grasshopper pierce the soft soil, and it is also laying eggs.
In the cornfield by the river, the corn stalks are green and black, growing at a rate that is almost visible to the naked eye, and there are clumps of hot air steaming inside.
The cotton peaches in a waist-deep cotton field nearby were tightly closed, and they were not ready to bloom.
It's a hot season, but it's also a season of growth, and it's also a season of reproduction.
Li Feiyang and a few people are enjoying the shade in the woods, because in this era, the conditions are simple, there are no electric fans in the countryside, the weather is very hot, and when it is hot at night, when it is too hot to sleep, the people in the farmers will take the mats and spread them in the woods for the night.
Sometimes in the middle of summer, I fall asleep in the woods, and sometimes I am awakened by the small claws of the young cicadas that crawl on the skin. When the awakened child touched it, he knew by feeling that it was a cicada, so he pulled it aside and ignored it, just such a cicada is not worth taking home in the middle of the night.
The forest where Li Feiyang is located is a good place for most people in the village to rest and enjoy the shade. His family has a big place and his own back garden, so there is no need to come here, but this is the most lively place in the whole village on a hot day, and sometimes Li Feiyang occasionally comes here in order to join in the fun.
At this moment, Li Feiyang was lying in the woods, with a mat spread under him, and Mark and Sheff next to him were roasting sweet potatoes with great interest.
There was a small mound in the woods, and the men stole a few sweet potatoes from a nearby sweet potato field, picked up some dry wood branches, dug a small hole in the mound, and put the sweet potatoes in the small hole above, and the dry branches were ignited with leaves, and stuffed into the hole below. After burning for a while, the burning wood filled the small hole below and burned it thoroughly, and Sheff said: "That's it! No need to burn it! ”
Li Dongsheng asked curiously, "What should I do now?" ”
Xie Fuzhi lifted his foot, trampled the hole in the dirt with one foot, and buried the hot sweet potatoes on the hot soil in the mound.
Mark exclaimed, "Hey, what's going on?" Why did the hole that was dug so hard be trampled on by it? ”
Xie Fuzhi smiled: "It's better to trample it, otherwise, the sweet potato won't be fragrant when it's cooked!" ”
Li Dongsheng was curious: "And this matter?" ”
He and Mark were both city kids, and they were curious about everything in the country. I lived in Li Feiyang's house for two days with Xie Fu and a few others, and today I came to the woods to cool off, and on a whim I roasted sweet potatoes with Xie Fu and a few others.
After burying the sweet potatoes, several people came to Li Feiyang: "Big brother, when are we going back to school?" ”
Li Feiyang said lazily: "Isn't there still two or three days?" When the time comes, let the tiger pick us up, are you in a hurry to go back? ”
Li Dongsheng said with a smile: "We are not in a hurry to go back, we are not in a hurry to go back." ”
The two have never lived in the countryside, and in Li Feiyang's house for a few days, they don't need them to help with farm work.
As he was talking, one of the bare-chested children bathing in the river jumped out of the river, a strange scream, and several children also ran out of the water, and one child took the sole of his shoe and slapped the ass of the first child, it turned out that the child's buttocks were stung by a few leeches, and after a few soles of the slap, the leeches that got into the flesh were slowly shaken out.
It's just that there is a leech biting not the place, is biting on the top of the little Dingding, next to a few children holding the soles of the shoes are a little dumbfounded, don't know how to start, the bitten children are also a little worried, if the leech pulls out with his hands, maybe the upper half of the body that gets into the meat will be broken inside, and he is so anxious that he cries.
Li Feiyang heard the movement, came out of the woods, walked in front of the child, saw this situation, laughed, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the lower abdomen of the bitten child, the internal force was everywhere, and the leech that was bitten on the little Ding Ding had been shaken out.
The child burst into tears and laughed, picked up the small leech covered with yellow-brown lines from the ground, pulled the two ends of the leech, made a lot of effort, and pulled it into two sections, so he was still angry, put on his shoes and kneaded hard in the ground, and kneaded the broken leech into minced meat, and then stopped.
Li Feiyang said with a smile: "Okay, okay, dog, you just let it go, it's already dead and can't die anymore!" ”
The dog said: "Thank you, Brother Feiyang, we are going back, and I will go to herd sheep in a while." ”
Li Feiyang pointed to a few green-haired goats next to him: "Where do you see they have gone?" They have eaten a lot of corn in the field! ”
"Oops!"
The dog was startled and ran quickly towards the flock. Several of the children followed in a swarm, and some of the goats were their own.
Before they could get to the flock, a man ran out of the cornfield: "Whose sheep are they?" No one cares about eating my corn? That little badass herded sheep? Why don't you look at it well? ”
The man who came out of the cornfield, about fifty years old, with a pleated face, a dirty long-sleeved coat on his upper body, and a pair of gray and blue pants that were not of any material, and carried a sickle in his hand.
Mark looked at the style of his pants a little strange, and asked Li Feiyang: "Boss, this person's pants are a little strange, what kind of material is this?" How come I haven't seen this style of pants? ”
Li Feiyang said: "This is a pair of pants made of fertilizer bags, which was a very popular thing back then?" ”
Mark didn't believe it: "How is that possible? Can a fertilizer bag be made into pants to wear? ”
Li Feiyang said: "Don't believe it, it's true." A few years ago, when the Japanese established diplomatic relations at the beginning of the year, the Japanese country provided a large amount of urea to our country free of charge, and the packaging bags of these urea were made of nylon, which was strong and durable, and was much more durable than the cotton cloth woven at home. At that time, the planned economy, there was a serious shortage of fabrics, and cloth tickets had to be used to buy cloth. Later, the fertilizer was distributed to the supply and marketing cooperatives, and I don't know who put their minds on these urea bags, removed the outer packaging of these urea bags, dyed them with pigments, and made them into pants, and the two bags were just enough to make a pair of pants. The material of this kind of pants is strong, and when it is blown by the wind, it is like a red flag waving in the wind in the commune compound, shaking like a wave, and it is extremely elegant. It's just a little bit bad. ”
Li Dongsheng said: "That's not good? ”
Li Feiyang said with a smile: "These urea bags of the Japanese country are written in black letters, indicating the name, weight, and percentage of urea, although these words have been dyed by dye, they are still faintly visible, difficult to cover, this is it, it is also the envy of many farmers in the brigade, ordinary people can't get it at all, only the cadres of the brigade can get a piece to wear, this was a symbol of status at that time, and the village cadres from all over the country were proud to wear such a pair of pants,"
Mark was a little unconvinced: "Really? ”
Li Feiyang said: "Is this still fake? After these pants are cut, the side with the word urea written on it is generally placed behind the body, the side with the word "Made in the Japanese Kingdom" is placed in front of the body, and the area with the percentage written on it is placed at the position of the belt, and the piece with the words "net weight" of 40 kilograms is naturally placed on the crotch. ”
Speaking of this, Li Feiyang said loudly: "Big cadres, small cadres, one person and one fertilizer pants, the front is the Wa Kingdom, and the back is urea. The net weight of the crotch is eighty pounds, and the waist is wrapped in a percentage! ”
Li Dongsheng laughed when he heard it, he was so happy that he almost couldn't breathe.
Mark didn't smile, his face was a little ugly, and he asked Li Feiyang softly: "Big brother, was the situation so difficult at that time?" ”
Li Feiyang said: "You are a child of an official family, you are young, when you educated youth went to the countryside, children of your age were not qualified to go down, so you don't know how difficult the countryside was at that time!" A family of four, at that time, there were cases of wearing a pair of pants together! What's there to be curious about in the scramble for a bag of fertilizer? It's just that in a country as big as ours, in the more than 30 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people have not had enough food and clothing, and even the grassroots cadres are competing with the people for these foreign tattered things, and they are also the tattered things of the Japanese country. ”
Mark listened and was silent.
Li Feiyang said: "Fortunately, this was a few years ago, you see that he only wears such pants when he is doing farm work now, which means that he no longer regards it as a rare object." However, if you really want to understand the needs of the grassroots people in the countryside, you must come to the countryside often! ”
Mark said, "I will!" ”
At this time, the sweet potatoes have been stewed and cooked, and several people took out the sweet potatoes, and after peeling off the skin, a strong fragrance wafted out, and after a few bites, it was really sweet and delicious.
In the next few days, Li Feiyang led Mark around several surrounding villages, and the time for school to start school had arrived.
At the beginning of the summer vacation, Li Feiyang and his classmates were already sophomores.
Zhao Chunjiang no longer returned to Tangcheng, and when several people returned to Tangcheng, he had already gone to school in Kyoto, and the period of meeting would be at least half a year later.
The new semester has a new atmosphere, perhaps because of the influence of Li Feiyang, or the struggle of the principal Ma Dezhong, Tangcheng City began to renovate Tangcheng No. 1 Middle School.
Originally, the students' desks were all dilapidated old desks, and some of them were simply connected with a few wooden boards, which looked very simple and a little difficult to see. Normally, it's okay, middle schools in this era are like this, except for a few big cities, the desks in most urban schools are not very good, and the relevant leaders don't feel that there is anything wrong.
However, because there is an endless stream of reporters who come to interview Li Feiyang nowadays, some people will come to the classroom from time to time to ask his classmates to learn about Li Feiyang. The desks and benches placed in the classrooms now affect the appearance of the school a little, and even affect the image of the entire education system in Tang City.
If this is photographed by reporters and put into the newspaper, it will not be a publication of Li Feiyang's personal information, but a report calling for donations to educational facilities in poor areas.
With this in mind, the city government allocated a small amount of money and began to renovate the desks, doors and windows of the school, along with the beds in the dormitories.
When a group of students came to school, they were a little afraid to admit it.
In the classroom, there are a few bright windows, and the new tables and new benches in the color of wood are filled with woody fragrance, and they are neatly placed in the classroom, like soldiers waiting for inspection.
The walls of the classrooms are plastered with white plaster, and large scrolls are hung on the walls, on which are written famous quotes and aphorisms of historical figures, as well as spiritual slogans of leaders. There are also two pots of small flowers on the platform outside the window, which is a bit elegant.
In the eyes of people at the time, all this was already a very good situation, but in Li Feiyang's eyes, it was a lot of things.
Tangcheng No. 1 Middle School was originally renovated by the mansion of the former high-ranking officials, if it only uses its original appearance, slightly renovates, opens up a few rooms, and can still leave a bit of ancient elegance, but now it is made by the relevant government personnel, but it looks nondescript, not ancient and modern, and looks extremely uncomfortable.
But it is not without benefits for these students, and Li Feiyang is too lazy to say this.
In this way, the classroom looks clean and refreshing, which is very different from the original tattered, but the students in the classroom are a little inconsistent with the cleanliness of the classroom.
At this time, there were few people in the countryside who wore bright clothes, that is, children in the city, and the clothes they wore were mainly gray, green, black and white, and too bright clothes were rare.
At this time, when the students enter the classroom, it is like calling Hanako into the palace, and the beautiful environment highlights their own tattered and dirty smell. Although the students are not so exaggerated as Hanako, the image is indeed a bit unsightly.
Seeing this situation, Li Feiyang was secretly amused, not knowing what the expression of the person who renovated the classroom would be when he saw this situation.
Nowadays, the state has begun to implement the division of arts and sciences in high schools in various cities, and the second year of high school is the first grade to be separated.
Li Feiyang and Mark are liberal arts students, and Li Dongsheng and Xie Fu are all in science.
The registration for each subject was before the summer vacation, and now the classes of students are divided according to the list, and Li Feiyang and Li Dongsheng are divided into one class.
Nowadays, there are not too many students in the school, and there are five or six classes in the sub-subject, and there are even fewer liberal arts students, and the sophomore liberal arts students in the whole school can barely make up enough for one class.
The list of subjects is posted on the school's bulletin board, and there are only a few classrooms, so it is naturally not difficult to find. Go to the classroom and find your own seats according to your height.
The current school is far less snobbish than the school in Li Feiyang's previous life, and even the placement of students is arranged according to academic performance, and the ranking of students at this time is just the opposite of that in the previous life, in order to take care of poor students, the school generally arranges a good learning position for poor students, so as to facilitate them to listen to lectures and study.
This is the real teaching and educating people.
