Chapter 23 Poor Students
Southern Xinjiang border, national style junior high school.
This is Ding Li's junior high school alma mater, and his fate can be said to have changed from Guofeng Junior High School. Especially that time, I was humiliated by the teacher and scolded as garbage and scum.
Shame and courage, Ding Li's young heart deeply interpreted these words.
The teaching building of Guofeng Junior High School is a little dilapidated, because it is a border area, and the teaching environment is not as good as that of the inland or coastal areas. But being able to go to school is the greatest blessing.
Ding Li likes to climb to the roof of the teaching building in the afternoon to watch the sunset hanging obliquely on the canopy.
On this day, he still came to the top of the building, bathed in the setting sun, the breeze came slowly, blowing his long hair a little messy, he stretched out his hand, let the breeze blow on his cheeks.
"I can, I'm not trash, I'm not scum!" He roared towards the sky, "I'm going to be admitted to a key high school!" ”
At that moment, he was no longer an ignorant child, but like a big hero in armor and riding a tall horse, Jin Ge Iron Horse, galloping across the field.
"Ding Li!" An intoxicatingly sweet female voice came from behind him, and he barely had to look back to know who was coming from the familiar voice.
But he turned around very happily, showed a smiling face, and shouted happily: "Teacher Duan! ”
Teacher Duan Shuxiang is Ding Li's Chinese teacher, a young teacher with shoulder-length short hair, melon seed face, and a pair of charming dimples on her cheeks. She came to Guofeng Junior High School just after graduating from the Normal School, and has been taking the Chinese class of Ding Li's class since the first year of junior high school.
Speaking of Teacher Duan Shuxiang, Ding Li's gratitude is overflowing, if there is no Teacher Duan Shuxiang in the national style, there will be no Ding Li. Every time Ding Li was scolded by the homeroom teacher as garbage and scum, he even persuaded the principal many times to quit school. It was all recommended by Duan Shuxiang to be guaranteed, and she has a special "maternal love" for Ding Li.
"Ding Li, I heard the head teacher, Mr. Li, say that you are in trouble again?" Duan Shuxiang raised her hand and stroked the hair hanging down from her forehead, but her face did not blame, but was very peaceful, even with a smile, "You kid, every time you count down in the exam, you deliberately go against Teacher Li?" Right? ”
Duan Shuxiang has asked this sentence countless times. But every time Ding Li bit his lip and didn't answer.
"I know, what about your language, you are the first in the grade every time, you respect me. But in other subjects such as mathematics and English, you deliberately write the wrong answer and take the countdown! You're a kid, you're pretty personal! ”
Duan Shuxiang didn't mean to blame, as if she was saying something inconsequential.
"Then who told him to scold me for being garbage and scum every time, Mr. Duan, I'm not trash, I'm not scum, I'm not!" Originally, he was forcibly enduring his grievances, but in the face of Duan Shuxiang, he said that he couldn't hold back his tears anymore.
Duan Shuxiang sighed, lowered her body, hugged Ding Li in her arms, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Ding Li, you are a good boy, of course you are not garbage, not scum." I learned why you had long hair, and then the teacher cut your hair once a month. ”
When Ding Li heard this, he was pleasantly surprised, and looked up at Duan Shuxiang, "Teacher, really?" Can you cut your hair? ”
Duan Shuxiang poked his forehead with her hand, "Cut it shorter, it's better than your long flowing hair!" Little ghost, it's about to take the high school entrance examination, study hard, don't do anything to provoke Teacher Li, understand? ”
Ding Li nodded, "But Li Wangba is too deceitful, so I don't want to deal with him!" ”
"What Li Wangba, really!"
"Look at him like that, he shrinks his head one day, and he oppresses and exploits students, he is not a king or something!"
"Good, good...... It doesn't matter if he's a king or a turtle. In short, my little Ding Li wants to study with peace of mind and be admitted to a key high school. Duan Shuxiang patted him on the shoulder, her face full of concern.
Ding Li said "um", "Thank you, teacher, I will definitely be admitted to a key high school!" ”
"The high school entrance examination is not allowed to gamble and count down!" Duan Shuxiang said with a smile.
Ding Li scratched the back of his head and smiled, "I'm going to surprise King Li!" ”
"Bunny, you're there!" Duan Shuxiang smiled sincerely, and she was sincerely responsible for Ding Li. Maybe only she understands that this Ding Li is not bad at learning, but that he deliberately disagrees with the homeroom teacher, every time he takes an exam, he is the first in the grade in Chinese, but the other subjects are the last.
There are only two kinds of people who take the countdown every time, one is not studying at all, knows nothing about the exam, and can't answer the questions; The other is that he learns very well and is able to bypass every correct answer and choose the wrong one.
But generally speaking, the former is the majority. There are exceptions to everything, and Ding Li belongs to the latter.
Of all the teachers, only Duan Shuxiang knew Ding Li's secret, he was so diligent and studious, it was impossible to count down every time. And only the first place in the Chinese exam, no matter how partial the student is, it will not be two extremes.
When Duan Shuxiang realized this, she gradually got to know the student named "Ding Li". It turned out that his personality was a little withdrawn, and he was not very gregarious in the class, and over time, his classmates didn't like him very much, and every time the teacher saw him with long flowing hair, he naturally thought that he was a gangster, not the kind of hard-working and motivated student.
So, led by the head teacher Mr. Li, he was labeled with various labels, from "not thinking of progress" at the beginning, to simply scolding him as "garbage and scum", the more so, the more rebellious Ding Li became.
But his rebellion will not be overwhelmed by his knowledge, he is very hard and diligent in every subject, and even pays several times more time and energy than others. However, in every exam, his Chinese score was always the first in his grade, while in other subjects, he was the last.
He was even scolded by his classmates as "brain-dead", "perverted", and "deformed", but Ding Li knew very well that his goal was to be admitted to a key high school. He doesn't dare to slack off, he will just keep working hard.
Even so, he still does not change his personality, and his Chinese scores are always the first in his grade, and all other subjects are counted down without exception.
In the environment of pursuing the promotion rate, or the pursuit of promotion to a key high school, the teacher's eyes naturally do not look at Ding Li more, and all the aura is on those students who are the first in their grade every exam. For this so-called "garbage, scum", they don't bother to look at it at all.
Only Duan Shuxiang had a unique eye, saw Ding Li's "careful thinking", and knew his personality. No matter how other teachers slander and belittle Ding Li, in Duan Shuxiang's eyes, Ding Li must be the first student in the grade, a student who can bypass the correct answer every time, he must be different.
