The old man shouted for wine, and the man with gray hair, a few glasses of wine, like an aggrieved child, sat there sobbing and crying.

But when he spoke, he used an emphasis that Zhu Wu had never heard before, sonorous and powerful, and every word was full of man's blood and pride.

"I was one of the first batch of college students, and I studied hard for 30 years, and I studied with polar bears, and I got the first grades.

I was an exchange student at the East Hans, Dresden University of Technology, and Lao Tzu was still the first.

It is not easy for Huaxia to train me, a lot of manpower and material resources, to support me alone, is equivalent to hundreds of peasants, saving food and clothing. In the days when I was studying, every day was the blood and sweat of the people.

Therefore, I thought at that time, learn to become a martial artist and build my Huaxia!

Why are we beaten, why are we being bullied? The sick man of East Asia? Grass his yellow-skinned monkey?

It's not that our compatriots aren't industrious, and it's not that they're not brave. On the contrary, we have the most industrious and courageous people in the world.

But if knowledge and science are not good, if you fall behind, you will be beaten. ”

The old man held the wine glass, and the tears of tears rolled down the old man's face like beads. But at this moment, I can't see his aging, in his eyes, on his face, a different kind of brilliance, flashing and blooming.

"When I returned to China, I chose to become a teacher. I'm going to teach what I've learned to countless others. Let those children from poor backgrounds, like me, become the sparks that ignite the wave of science in the land of China.

On the first day of class, I wrote a few big characters on the blackboard, learned mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and typed all over the world.

Pounce on your mother, learn so poetry and songs! Huaxia does not need poets, mouths, pens, and literati who can speak well and have a smooth tone.

What is needed is intellectuals, intellectuals who know technology and understand science.

What is needed is that he is silent, but he has been the same for decades, not afraid of poverty, and disdainful of high-ranking officials. Intellectuals who want to build China and fight in factories, workshops, research institutes, and schools to educate books.

Knowledge is our future, and knowledge is the most important thing for our future generations! ”

Speaking of this, the old man tilted his neck, drank a glass of spirits, and drank it all.

Zhu Wu lightly filled him up, "What happened later?" ”

"Later?" The old man's face showed a wry smile, a little painful, a little aggrieved, "Later, some bad people sent me to a far away place, where there are no factories, no schools, and even no students.

It's all land, and the peasants are desperately planting and working, and I am also working. I'm not afraid to work, I'm a farmer's child, but I'm afraid, there's no hope. ”

A tear fell on the old man's glass, and after he raised his head and drank it, the expression on his face changed again.

It has become a firmer, more courageous ray of hope, he said, "but hope is always in the hearts of people." The old village chief found me and told me, "In the future, give me the baby in the village, and be a gentleman." ”

The old man smiled, his smile as bright as a child's, "I said okay, I am a teacher, I like teaching the most." The village chief took people to clean up a house at the west end of the village, and the next day, gave me a dozen dirty little monkey cubs. Ha ha! Pour me wine! ”

"Oh!" Zhu Wu listened attentively, he was not familiar with that period of history, but he had heard it, and he heard the old man say that it was a difficult time, and asked, "Give you back the wine?" ”

"Lao Tzu said to let you pour me wine!"

Zhu Wu hurriedly gave it up, and the old man had another cup.

"A dozen little bunnies, nothing. I made up my own textbooks and taught them from the very basics. Those little bunnies, fucking stupid! ”

The old man's eyes were full of smiles, "Pinyin is written like a tadpole, and I can't always memorize the math Xiao Jiujiu." But in their eyes, the thirst for knowledge, like stars, twinkle and twinkle, thieves bright! ”

"There are no stupid students, only stupid teachers. Lao Tzu changed the teachings of the law, they can write, they can count, and they know that the earth is round. ”

"They're not stupid at all, they just don't have the opportunity, they don't have the opportunity to become students, they don't have the opportunity to learn."

"That year, the Chinese New Year, the heavy snow closed the door!" The old man's face was full of memories, "I just pushed the door open in the morning and was terrified. The snow was full of my students and their simple parents. When they saw me, their father laughed, and then pumped with a big mouth and kicked with a big foot, so that those little cubs would give me New Year's greetings, kowtow, and New Year's gifts. ”

"There are buns, there are eggs, there are salted meats, there are dried fruits!" The old man wiped away his tears, "They were all reluctant to eat by themselves, and I felt happy at that time, even if I died at that time, I had no regrets." ”

"At the beginning of spring in the second year, the people and children from all over the country came to the, and the township was alarmed. When the township officials heard about this, they mobilized the strong laborers of more than a dozen villages and built a road every week. ”

"A way for children to get to school." The old man pursed his lips and indulged, "There are hundreds of children, I teach alone, and the teachers are reading aloud all the time, which is the best sound in the world." ”

Zhu Wu's eyes were also moist, and he silently drank a glass of wine, "Old man, what happened later?" ”

"Later, I died!" The old man's face was extremely lonely, "I don't know what the disease is, I'm dead." When I died, I became a soul, and I saw my funeral. ”

"Is it grand?" Zhu Wu asked.

The old man smiled, "The people of all the towns and villages are here, I have no children and no daughters in my life, and those little cubs give me linen and filial piety." The village chief was in their village, and the best place in the scenery found me a place.

My tombstone was written by a student and chiseled out by his father. The tomb of my beloved teacher, it is my favorite place.

By May, flowers are in full bloom, butterflies are flying, and sweet fragrances are everywhere. ”

The old man cried again, drank another glass of wine, and looked at Zhu Wu, "Child, where are you from?" ”

"I'm coming after you, about forty years later!" Zhu Wu said slowly, "In your time, I wasn't even born yet. ”

The old man suddenly became nervous, "At that time, life was better!" I think you went to school too! “

"My time was a prosperous time that had never been seen in history! An unprecedented era of prosperity! ”

The old man opened his mouth wide and looked at Zhu Wu.

"In my day, almost everyone went to school. Nine years of compulsory education, from elementary school to junior high school, do not cost anything. Zhu Wu said with a smile, "Every child grows up healthy, lively, and happy." From the beginning of primary school, there are mathematics, Chinese, English, nature, and physical education.

Then there is middle school, mathematics, physics and chemistry, and then high school. Then I went to college, and after college, I had graduate students, and I had a PhD. ”

Zhu Wu looked at the old man and said slowly, "When every child grows up, there will be many teachers to teach him, all kinds of knowledge, not only knowledge, but also music, sports, all the most beautiful things of human beings.

You can't imagine how big our classrooms are, our classrooms are more magnificent than the palace, more than a dozen stories high, spacious and bright.

There are televisions, computers, and various laboratories in the school, physics and chemistry experiments. ”

The old man's beard was shaking.

"In my time, every child was in school, and poor students had subsidies and grants." Saying that, Zhu Wu smiled, "Let me give you an example, there are ten people I met on the street, and six of them are college students." ”

"Really? You didn't lie to me? The old man cried out and slapped his thigh, "Little Wu, what education are you?" ”

"Me?" Zhu Wu was embarrassed, "High school!" ”

"Why don't you go to college?" The old man asked.

"Bad at studying." Zhu Wu smiled, "I don't want to learn either!" ”

Smack, hot on the scalp.

was actually slapped by the old man.

"Pounce on your grandmother, you don't want to learn? Let you go to school, but you don't learn? The old man jumped like thunder, "What about Lao Tzu's stick?" Look at whether Lao Tzu smokes you or not! ”

"Old man!" Zhu Wu smiled bitterly, "In my time, going to school was not the only way out. ”

Xi Yingzhen was stunned.

"People can work, they can do business, they can choose their profession at will. Well fed and well dressed, you were still hungry, right? At that time, people didn't dare to eat meat anymore, they were afraid of getting fat! ”

"!" The old man didn't believe it.

"In my time, we in China have stood on top of the world." Zhu Wu looked at the old man, "Since your death, it has taken us decades to complete the road of Western countries for hundreds of years. We have what they have, and we do better than him! ”

The old man was moved and looked at Zhu Wu quietly.

"Our Huaxia is already the second largest economy in the world, you know what an economy is!"

The old man nodded desperately.

"England, France, and the little foot basin have all been left behind by us. Polar bears, you know? ”

The old man was still nodding desperately.

"How horizontal it used to be! Now our strategic partner, he has to beg us and rely on us. England, France? Don't look at them squarely, in our eyes, there is only the beauty of the old man. ”

"Really?" The old man's eyes burst into enthusiasm.

"Let me tell you this, the poor and weak China has become a civilized and prosperous power. The most dynamic, inclusive, and advanced country in the world. ”

"Pour wine for Lao Tzu!" The old man shouted.

"You don't know, when I come, we can build aircraft carriers."

When the old man's glass spilled.

The wine was drenched, but the old man didn't realize it, and looked at Zhu Wu directly.

"Don't you be Mengzi?"

"Blindfold you?" Zhu Wu said with a smile, "We not only build aircraft carriers, we also have all kinds of warships, and we also have our own research and development, the most advanced fighter plane." UAVs, tanks, missiles, self-propelled guns.

In the past, no one dared to bully us, but now, hum! We are an economic power, a science and technology power, a cultural power, and most importantly, we are also a military power.

No one dares to recruit us! You have to respect us! ”

"Good!"

Bang, the old man slammed the table.

On the old face, flushing emerged, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

A thousand words, accumulated in the chest, turned into a song.

"A big river, wide waves, the wind blows the rice and flowers on both banks, and my family lives on the shore...."

Zhu Wu's wine glass was gentle, "This is our motherland, and it is where my voice grows." ”

During the song, Zhu Wu continued, "In my time, every Chinese person lived proudly, everyone had money, and every family had a car. We are happy, we are joyful, and even we are decadent, and we are wasteful.

But we have never forgotten where a good life comes from! ”

"Old man!" Zhu Wu stood up in the old man's singing, "The Chinese People's Liberation Army, retired soldier Zhu Wu, like you to express my most sincere respect." ”

Smack, legs together.

"Salute!"
