Chapter 280: Some Sadness
Zheng Jie was a little hesitant when he said this, sighed, and muttered to himself: "It's a pity that many families don't have money, and many families can only send one child to study, in fact, there are only fifty or sixty people in this school." ”
Wang Yun was surprised: "There are only fifty or sixty people in this school, but I saw many families along the way, and there are still people living in the mountains as you said." ”
Zheng Jie glanced at Wang Yun, with a hint of sadness and disappointment in his eyes: "Didn't I say it just now, many people here only send one child to study, and often send boys, there are many illiterate girls here, most of them got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, they have no culture, and they don't attach much importance to children's education, this vicious circle often becomes a tragedy in the end, maybe this is just a tragedy I think, The last time I visited, I saw a lot of sloppy girls lying on their stomachs outside the school, and some boys, all lying outside watching the teachers teach inside, and I knew that they all wanted to study. ”
Although the country has universalized nine-year compulsory education, these remote places are slower than those outside, and the most important reason is that the parents of those families feel that their children have gone to school, and no one has done anything at home, so they would rather let their children help pull pigweed, collect firewood, and farm at home, rather than send them to study.
This is also the most fundamental reason why these things have become what they are now.
Yu Younan's heart was also a little uncomfortable, and he sighed and said, "Let's go, we've rested enough, let's do our best to help." How much money does Chu Ji have this time. ”
She suddenly felt that it was more important for these children to be educated than for them to enjoy a better childhood.
Chu Ji thought of what Yu Younan was going to do when Yu Younan asked this.
He also agreed in his heart: "There are more than 80,000, and Wang Yun alone donated 50,000." Our basketball club donated more than 10,000 yuan, plus yours and those classmates in the school, and several other teachers also donated, a total of more than 80,000 yuan. Do you want to use the money to educate children who want to go to school? ”
Yu Younan nodded and looked at the people present: "What about your opinion, I think it is important to let those children learn knowledge, as for the original intention of our coming this time." We can come out with less. ”
This is a temporary decision, everyone present has the right to choose, Yu Younan's words made everyone think deeply.
Wang Yun also knows the importance of learning. Only with knowledge can you change your life, even if you go out to work and make money in the future, it will definitely be much better to be literate.
"I agree." Wang Yun agreed first.
Chu Ji also nodded and said that he had no opinion, and Zheng Jie and Zhang Yu also had no opinion. The all-inclusive pass is naturally a joy for all.
Yu Younan laughed. The mood is very good: "That's a good feeling, let's not talk about money when we go, we just donate what we brought, this matter must be done by a trustworthy person to rest assured, otherwise we are actually very sorry for those who support this event." ”
Although they are the largest donors, they are also responsible for the rest, at least let everyone know what they are doing with the money they donate.
Soon follow the trail and you will soon be walking into the village.
Few outsiders came in the village, and a few children playing at the head of the village first saw Yu Younan and them. Then the people in the village ran out one after another, and soon surrounded the young boys who were a little dazed.
Zheng Jie came last year. Someone recognized Zheng Jie.
A middle-aged man dressed neatly dressed walked in from the crowd.
Zheng Jie stepped forward with a smile when he saw it: "Village chief, you are here." ”
The village chief obviously recognized Zheng Jie as well, and his face was suddenly full of smiles: "Zheng Jie, you are here." He didn't expect Zheng Jie to come to the village again.
Zheng Jie hurriedly introduced to the village chief: "These are alumni of my university, and they also want to visit the students who came here today, and I don't know if Teacher Qin is not there." ”
When the village chief heard that he was visiting the children, he became even more enthusiastic, and a few children obviously remembered Zheng Jie, but when they saw Zheng Jie and the others, they didn't dare to step forward, so they asked timidly from afar: "Brother Zheng Jie, did you bring us lollipops in this time?" ”
There was anticipation in those little eyes.
Zheng Jie and the others were well prepared this time, but they were still outside the village, and it was inconvenient to take them out, so Xiao said to a few children: "Go and call your friends, go to the school playground and wait, and there will be good things for you later." ”
As soon as Zheng Jie finished speaking, several children rushed away excitedly.
Yu Younan walked to Wang Yun's side sadly, gently touched Wang Yun with his arm, and said, "Seeing this, do you still want to go to those bars and spend a lot of money?" ”
The last time Wang Yun spent 60,000 or 70,000 yuan in a night in the bar, she felt a little distressed when she thought about it now.
Wang Yun is kind, especially at this time in this place, that kind of sympathetic heart is even more overflowing.
In addition, after being with Yu Younan, I felt that the bar was not interesting, but I didn't have any expectations.
"You can rest assured that you won't go, I will be more down-to-earth in the future, looking at these children, what I feel the most is that I can't let my children be the same as these children in the future, and I don't want my children and grandchildren to be like this."
Yu Younan laughed, but did not speak.
Zheng Jie and the village chief had met before, so they chatted together, and those who watched the excitement looked at a few people with strange eyes.
Yu Younan felt a little uncomfortable when he was looked at with such eyes, and he felt a little cramped and uneasy walking in the middle of the crowd.
The only ones who were a little calmer in the middle were Chu Ji and Wang Yun, and the two talked and laughed together.
The houses in the village seem to have been built for a long time, and most of them are small wooden buildings on stilts, which looks very feeling, and she has always liked the architectural style built against the mountain.
The path in the village is very flat, and the chickens and ducks are swaggering along the road. The goat crowed.
The people around them are old and young, men and women, and these people all have a kind of extension. With a little bit of expectation in their eyes, many people are staring at their backpacks, and they always feel uncomfortable being spied on.
Yu Younan touched Zhang Yu lightly and said in a low voice: "I feel a little like a needle prick." ”
Zhang Yu also felt this way, looked left and right, and didn't dare to speak loudly: "I always feel that their eyes are so scary, we really have to sleep here at night." I think it's better for us to go back early, otherwise it's good to stay there last night, and I'm so panicked here at night. ”
He spoke in a low voice. The main reason is because I think these people will think more when they hear these words.
Yu Younan stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Yu's shoulder again, which was a comfort.
At the end of the village is the school, and on the way, Yu Younan also saw a small shop and a clinic, all in the middle of the village.
Those who heard the news gathered around the school early in the morning, and the children were standing in the middle of the school's playground. The children were all excited. You can tell from the smiles on their faces and the expectant looks on their faces that they are really happy.
I don't know what it's like to have not experienced these things.
Yu Younan knows how hopeful the anticipation in his heart is.
Thinking of the snacks I bought in the supermarket, as well as notebooks and pens, I can be considered to be well prepared, at least I won't leave regrets for these children.
Zheng Jie obviously finished discussing something with the village chief, and turned around and said to a few people: "The village chief said that there are more children this year, and many children were disappointed for a long time when they didn't get snacks to eat last year, so the village chief wants us to wait until he informs the whole village that the children in the village are coming." When the time comes, it would be better for one person to have a little less. ”
Yu Younan nodded, she didn't have the slightest opinion. The rest agreed.
The people who were watching the excitement outside the school were persuaded by the village chief to leave: "Don't look around, don't scare the few children from the city, your children are all here, and no one will be missing." ”
"But we want to see the children in the city, and you can see how beautiful that little girl is." A man in his twenties said, glancing at Yu Younan as he said this.
Yu Younan looked at the man with no other meaning in his eyes, so he was a little comforted.
The village chief glanced at the person who spoke: "Go, go, hurry back and sleep with your daughter-in-law, you still dare to look at the girl in the city, be careful to go back to your woman gouged out your eyes, your baby is only three years old and can't walk, I will help you ask for a candy later, hurry up and disperse, you stand here The child is not comfortable playing, and the baby in the city is not comfortable, people come all the way here to see the child, not to see you." ”
Obviously, the village chief has a lot of prestige here, and as soon as these words were finished, the people around him had already dispersed one by one.
Yu Younan looked at the crowd that was gradually leaving, but some were reluctant to leave, and for the first time he thought it was still very fun.
At this time, Zheng Jie pulled a man in his thirties who wore glasses and looked like Sven walked out, and behind the man, there was a middle-aged woman, the middle-aged woman was very thin, she looked like she was crumbling, and her body knew that it was not very good at a glance.
Zheng Jie had already pulled the man in front of several people; "Let me introduce to you, this is the school's teacher, Teacher Qin, the latter is Teacher Qin's wife, and she is also a teacher in the school, the only difference is that she is obligatory, and she only teaches the first and second grades, there are only two of them in this school, Teacher Qin is willing to come here to teach, and she is also the person I admire the most."
When Zheng Jie said this, the whole person's eyes were full of admiration, such a spirit is indeed worthy of admiration, being able to take root in such a poor place, and always insisting, such a person at least shows that he is responsible.
Yu Younan and Chu Ji, as well as Wang Yu and Zhang Yu, took turns shaking hands with Teacher Qin one by one.
Teacher Qin was very excited, and her face was also moved: "Thank you for coming here, thank you for remembering the children of this remote school, I thank you for these children." ”
He was very excited, only Zheng Jie remembered this place after coming here for so long, many people didn't know that there was such a village in the mountains, in short, this place was like a closed place, and it had nothing to do with the outside.
Chu Ji was very excited, he had been looking at the playground of this school just now, it was actually a slightly flat dam, the ground was dusty, and there were weeds.
He really felt sorry for these children, and he also felt that there was no mistake in his choice this time.
Yu Younan waited until Chu Ji finished speaking, and asked Teacher Qin: "Teacher Qin, first of all, I admire you husband and wife, please accept my respect for you." As he spoke, he gave Teacher Qin and Teacher Qin's wife a big bow.
She really admires such selfless people, and it is because of them that this place is more beautiful, and these innocent and intelligent children have new hope.
Only by going out of the mountains can we truly change a qiē, otherwise we will always be in the mountains, and our ancestors will only have the same reincarnation for generations.
Teacher Qin's eyes were a little moist: "I have always wanted to go back to the city, but no one wants to teach these children after I left, I really can't bear to abandon them like this, and a few years have passed after gritting my teeth." ”
As he spoke, he glanced back at the children who were playing happily on the playground, and once again he had a smile on his face.
"These children are very innocent and cute, but because they were born in different places, they are treated completely differently, and when I came here, their fathers were still studying in my hands, and many of the children I teach now are the children of my former students."
Yu Younan and the others put their backpacks in Teacher Qin's bedroom, saying that the dormitory is actually a hut, with a bed, a writing desk, a chair, and a cabinet often used in rural areas.
The furnishings in the room are simple, and it makes people feel sad when they look at it.
Teacher Qin asked the children to move a few stools for Yu Younan and them, and then sat down and said to a few people: "The village chief also said just now, there are many children here, when Zheng Jie and they came last year, many of these children didn't get candy to eat, I heard Zheng Jie say that this time you brought a lot of food, although I know that it is not good to ask for it directly, but ...... I really don't want to see a child disappointed. ”
He was very sour when he said this.
Yu Younan felt very sorry for Teacher Qin, and felt that it was not easy for him to come in person for the first time.
Chu Ji hurriedly said: "Teacher Qin, don't feel guilty, we know that you are kind enough to do this, and the village chief is also kind to us, we are here for the children, naturally as long as we can do things that make the children happy." ”
As long as it can make the children happy, have a happy childhood, or have a little memory of a happy childhood, it is right for them. (To be continued......)
