Mother Liu brought over a large blackened iron pot in a corner of the courtyard. As soon as the lid is lifted, the aroma is overflowing. It turned out that when everyone was going out, she killed two big roosters raised by her family and stewed a large pot of potatoes.
This old king, after looking at the stove for a long time, didn't say a word.
Lao Wang seemed to see Fang Xinning's dissatisfaction, and explained that he really couldn't persuade him, and it was Liu's mother who insisted on killing.
Fang Xinning just let a faint fragrance cause her stomach to scream, and she was embarrassed to ask where it came from, if she knew that there was such a big dish, how could she not give Liu Daqiangsheng a portion?
After eating, an old Eight Immortals table was invited out of the house by everyone and moved to the middle of the courtyard. The pancakes from the new stall, as well as the high-stake steamed buns exchanged for wheat from the village, shallots, pickles, sauce, stewed chicken, a table full of peanuts produced by their family, and some silkworm pupae and cicadas were fried.
There were not enough chopsticks, and the branches were chipped. Maybe they were really hungry, and the students gobbled up one by one, and the scene was very spectacular, and I had never seen such a meal in the cafeteria.
He Qiang served a big pancake to eat alone, and the more he persuaded him to eat some vegetables, the more he shook his head and leaned out. He Qiang is a bit introverted, and he rarely interacts with people except for talking to He Lihua, who was enrolled in school at the time. Fang Xinning found a small bowl and sent some dishes to He Qiang.
Fang Xinning, Ji Hongfei, Xu Minhua, and Lao Wang received special preferential treatment - they made a separate dish, using stones as tables and stones as stools, and formed a table independently. It's just that Fang Xinning couldn't sit still, and kept running into the pile of students, and Ji Hongfei also joined in the fun.
Xu Minhua was more concerned about whether there were any students running out of the gate, so he sat down next to the gate and ate very elegantly.
He Lihua ran over with the fruits of her victory, and Fang Xinning had to taste it. Fang Xinning felt that it was really difficult for him to swallow this food, so he was a little embarrassed and barely tasted a small piece. Xu Minhua and Lao Wang also tasted a small piece. When she arrived at Ji Hongfei, He Lihua only gave her a grimace and ran to the side, making Ji Hongfei's face full of embarrassment.
After eating, I saw Liu Daqiang pushing a cart of stones at the tip of the gang and coming in leisurely. This car, I'm afraid there are a lot more than the one pushed by Fang Xinning. Under everyone's persuasion, he finally agreed to eat a piece of bread.
Fang Xinning said to Ji Hongfei: "Look, this is our rural child. "It's like boasting. Ji Hongfei disagreed.
The sun at noon is very good, and it shines warmly on people, but if you participate in labor, it is easy to sweat. In such weather, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, and the clothes I wore in the morning are a little unbearable now.
Ji Hongfei came to Fang Xinning's side and said mysteriously, "I picked a baby." Fang Xinning asked, "Who lost it?" Ji Hongfei said: "God! She lifted a handkerchief, and underneath it was a gray stone. Fang Xinning said nonchalantly: "Stone? It's all over the place. Ji Hongfei carefully brought the stone over and insisted on letting Fang Xinning see it. The stone is no different from the Taishan stone seen every day, but there is a natural "Ning" character on the stone, and it is quite a bit of cursive taste. Fang Xinning wanted to take it over and take a closer look, but Ji Hongfei quickly retracted it, wrapped it gently, put it in his bag, and held it in his arms mischievously. Fang Xinning was deceived by her, and she was a little embarrassed.
was about to go back, Fang Xinning arranged for Ji Hong to fly to the front to lead the team, and he supervised in the back. Everyone put the remaining bread, ham and excess mineral water into a pile and left them for Liu Daqiang. Of course, Liu's mother didn't agree with everyone doing this, so she pushed it up.
Si Wenjin, who had already walked to the gate, turned around and came back, took out 50 yuan, and said to Liu Daqiang: "You keep it, buy some more stationery." With so many people watching, Liu Daqiang's face was a little unbearable: "I have stationery." Liu's mother also hurriedly came over to stop it. Such a quarrel attracted everyone's attention, and they all folded back and stuffed a few yuan and dozens of yuan bills one after another. These actions were not arranged in advance, and were completely spontaneous by the students. Fang Xinning was also stunned by this sudden scene. At that time, he was holding a few bills in his hand, and was going to wait for the students to go out before leaving them for Liu's mother, because he had caused her a lot of trouble, not to mention, and had eaten her two big cocks.
Fang Xinning persuaded Liu's mother and Liu Daqiang: "Take it, this is everyone's little heart, there is nothing else." ”
Liu's mother and Liu Daqiang resolutely refused to accept it, and pushed it out vigorously.
"I'll say a few words," said the old man, "for the first time I've seen such a scene." I also have a son in my family, who was spoiled by his grandparents, and he didn't study well since he was a child. Seeing Liu Daqiang so sensible, I was very touched. I'll take him over when I have time. Although the conditions of our family are not very good, Liu Daqiang, a child with ambition, will definitely become a big man in the future, which is our greatest wealth. Today, everyone bothered you a lot, a little money, leave it for your children to go to school, and you won't be tough. He also pulled out some money and handed it over.
Liu's mother said: "The child has also received help from well-wishers, but I can't accept today's money." I really want to give these kids some money. ”
Xu Minhua was in front of Zuihou, and also took out a banknote from his wallet and stuffed it.
Liu's mother continued: "Thanks to the good eyes of the teachers, when he was in elementary school, he was taken care of by Teacher Yang, and when he was in junior high school, the teachers and classmates still helped him. Liu's mother was moved to tears. Fang Xinning hurriedly asked, "Which Teacher Yang?" Liu's mother said, "Oh, we are a teacher in primary school, Yang Xiangbei. ”
Everyone persuaded Liu's mother one after another, pressed the money aside with a small stone, and left quickly.
This scene was filmed by Ji Meiting and her colleagues who came in time.
Seeing that there were pictures, everyone ran faster.
Liu Daqiang put the money in his hand and chased everyone to pay it back. Si Wenjin said: "My bag, my bag has fallen into your house." Liu's mother and Daqiang didn't know what to do, so they hurriedly went back to the house to get it.
Qian Chengwan, who walked dozens of meters away, rushed back again. Fang Xinning asked him, "Why are you going?" Qian Chengwan hurriedly said: "I just found out that I still have money in my pocket, send it back to him." He waved three red bills in his hand, threw them down the door, turned around and ran.
Ji Meiting came over and complained to the other party for a while, saying that she couldn't contact him by phone, and she was delayed a lot of time in vain. The signal here is not good, how can you blame me?
Passing by Yanhuiling Village Primary School, the gate of Yang Xiangbei's school is still locked. Fang Xinning looked through the dilapidated gate, and saw that there was an empty courtyard inside, except for a row of houses that were also built with stones. According to the villagers, there are only three grades of students here, and the older children have to go to other villages. The conditions here are much tougher than in Montenegrin town. Under such conditions, how much spirit do teachers have to use to support their work! But no matter how hard the school is, there must always be teachers working there. How lucky I am compared to them.
Ji Meiting said: "This is the school where Teacher Yang Xiangbei is located. ”
Fang Xinning nodded.
The team has gone a long way, and everyone can still see Liu Daqiang and his mother and son standing at the edge of the village looking at them. Fang Xinning's heart suddenly tightened: How many times has he experienced such a scene? When he was in high school at Tailing Middle School, every time he left home with his mother's stall haode pancakes, his mother always stood at the entrance of the village and watched......
Ji Meiting got into the newspaper office car and left first. The teachers and students got on the bus driven by Lao Wang. Ji Hongfei sat down next to Fang Xinning and asked as if unintentionally, "You are quite familiar with that female reporter." Fang Xinning said: "Classmate." ”
The tour guide Xu Minhua also came over and thanked Fang Xinning and Ji Hongfei vigorously, saying that if it weren't for them, he really couldn't control these children. She handed out her business cards to them.
Fang Xinning congratulated himself on the smooth progress of the event, and at the same time introspected: Is he still a little anxious for quick success?
It was really too hard, everyone got in the car, and it was quiet for a while. Fang Xinning leaned back in his seat and took a nap, dreaming that his father, Fang Baoguo, was speaking Mandarin with a local accent in a simple classroom, and was talking to the students with relish......
At the head of the village, Liu's mother stroked Daqiang's head with her hand and said, "With so many people helping you, you have to take a good breath......
