Seeing Shen Yunshan's figure walk out of the gate, Li Dalong walked back to the rostrum.

Li Dejin saw the helplessness on his father's face and the tears hidden in his eyes.

was slapped by Shen Yunshan in front of nearly 100 teachers and students, and Li Dalong's self-esteem was seriously hurt.

If there was a crack in the ground, he would definitely get into it without hesitation, and Shen Zhaoyin's angry bump gave him a little comfort.

Standing on the rostrum in silence for a long time, Li Dalong suddenly remembered the word "responsibility" that his father told him on his deathbed, so he cheered up and said:

"Distinguished gentlemen and students: Hello everyone, the mayor has a major official business to do, and I hereby explain that I will continue to ...... the opening ceremony."

"Principal Li, we saw him slap you just now, what's the matter?" Du Xin suddenly asked with a smile.

"This ......" Li Dalong was red-faced and flustered when asked.

"Why, why are you dumb?" shouted someone else.

Thinking about it, Li Dalong finally had a speech: "Just now I asked the mayor if the opening ceremony was suspended, and he said that I would continue to read out the speech on his behalf. When I said I didn't dare to do anything else, he patted me on the head and encouraged me. ”

"It's not a slap on the head, it's a slap in the face. A few of us can see it. Du Xin said.

"What can you do if you see it?" Li Dalong asked disapprovingly, seeing that the other party was speechless, and then said, "He is not only a parent official, but also my elder, and a benefactor of my family.

No matter if he patted me on the head or slapped me, it was a spur and encouragement to me, and he cared for and cared for me!

He was saying that the opening ceremony must continue! Everyone, please be quiet! Listen as I continue to read out the mayor's message!"

When the venue was quiet, Li Dalong smiled awkwardly, cleared his throat, and continued to read out loudly the speech he had carefully prepared for Shen Yunshan:

"The eight views of the ancient town such as the willow pond of the Oriole, the Wuzhang Snow Wave, and the Shuoxiang Fishing Lantern in the south town are famous all over the world, among which the Erlang Temple is the most moving.

If you stand on the top of the Guanyin Pagoda of Erlang Temple, you will see the beautiful scenery in all directions: Wuzhang Ancient Ferry, Stone Dam Rolling Water, Five Rivers Rhyme ......"

As he spoke, Li Dalong raised his hands from time to time and gestured with great energy, as if he had really forgotten his previous humiliation and was completely immersed in his wonderful speech.

There were also bursts of warm applause from the audience from time to time.

"Principal Li," someone suddenly shouted, "If you have time, you must take us to the Erlang Temple, let us feast our eyes!"

"Alas......" Li Dalong sighed, his expression became solemn, "It's a pity that you're late!"

Due to the continuous wars, the Erlang Temple is now only left in ruins, which is a pity! When there will be no war!

However, looking at the remnants, it is natural to have nostalgic feelings for the past and the present, just like the Old Summer Palace in Beiping. Mr. Du, you said yes, right?"

"Yes," replied Du Xin, adding, "I have heard that more than ninety percent of the illiterates in our country are inhabited.

But in my opinion, the cultural people in Jinan Town are very remarkable, and a well-educated person like President Li is completely comparable to the professors of Beijing Normal University. ”

Hearing Du Xin praise him, Li Dalong didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, and was worried that he would play tricks on himself again, so he quickly thanked him and continued to read his speech.

In the last few sentences, Li Dalong raised his voice to the maximum: "Since ancient times, everything is inferior, only reading is high."

Only by reading can we change the fate of a person and even a family; if everyone reads, we can change the fate of a nation and a country! Thank you!"

Li Dalong waited for a while, but he didn't wait for the warm applause. It turned out that everyone's eyes shifted to a man who hurried to the podium.

The person who came was the city clerk. I saw him take out a folded piece of paper from his official folder, put it on the table, and then slowly unfolded it.

This was asked by Shen Yunshan to write it, and before the ink was dry, Shen Yunshan urged him to hurry up and read it out at the venue.

The paper was glued together with ink, and when it was opened, there were several large and small holes in it.

Holding the torn paper, the clerk read out in public:

"After investigation, the principal of Xinguan Higher Education in this city, Li Shi Dalong, male, 51 years old, is a native of Li Zhuang in this city.

The people were bold and reckless, hanging the national anthem of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in a private school at home to show their dissatisfaction with the Republic of China, and they have always been self-righteous, self-serving, and disrespectful and disciplined.

Today, on the occasion of the opening ceremony of the school, because of the grudge against the elders for their harsh lessons, they set up conspiracies and tricks to tease the mayor of a city, which is really a bad act of rebellion and revenge.

After research, it was decided that: 1. In order to strictly enforce the discipline of national law, the position of President Li Dalong will be revoked, and his salary will be halved to set an example;

2. Retain his position as a teacher to see the after-effects.

This is ...... Xinguan Municipal Government, Republic of China...... March 9, the fourth year of the Republic of China. ”

After the official document was read, Li Dalong was no longer in the mood to continue his speech, and hurriedly announced the end of the conference, and then took his two sons home.

Walking on the road, Li Dalong hated in his heart: "The most hateful thing is not Shen Yunshan, but Du Xin, the bastard, it's not that he is blind, where can there be such a result?"

As the saying goes, come and don't be rude. I will definitely seize the opportunity to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth! That is, to treat others in the same way as others!"

Looking at his father, who was walking silently with a gloomy face, Li Dejin asked in surprise: "Dada, why did he slap you? Why did he remove your principal?"

"Child," Li Dalong stopped, touched Li Dejin's head, sighed and said, "You are still young, many things in society are very complicated, not as simple as you imagined, I can't figure out why?"

However, we should have the bottom line of being a human being in our hearts, and we must be responsible for how to do things at any time, and we must be able to endure humiliation and burden many times. ”

Speaking of which, Li Dalong seems to have the spirit again.

"Got it, big. Li Dejin said, and then asked, "Before my aunt and father announced that they would not let you be the principal, you were still the principal, and you must do a good job in the opening ceremony." If he had announced it earlier, would you have taken on it?"

"Of course. Li Dalong replied confidently, "However, it's okay not to let me be the principal!"

"What's so good?" asked Li Dejin.

"This ......" Li Dalong thought for a while, and then said, "The principal is in charge of the mayor above, and there are unruly people like Mr. Du below, where can ordinary people do things?"

"I know. Li Dejin said, and then asked, "Why is Mr. Du not following the rules? Is he wrong?"

"What do you kid know?" Li Dalong said angrily, "Don't ask any more nonsense!"
