Chapter II
Looking forward to, looking forward to, the desk calendar turned page by page, and the day of September 17th finally came! The elder brother who worked in the supply and marketing cooperatives rushed home to send Zhao Hongyi to school, and in his father's thousands of instructions and instructions, the brothers set off.
This time there was no hitchhiker to take, but fortunately, when the water was impounded, the water of Yinhu Lake had come back, and they needed to walk for 1 hour to the "shipyard", and then take a boat from there to the dock of Liushu Town, and then transfer to a shuttle boat to reach the old Zhuangzi boarding and landing station, and from there take a train to Liangzhou City. This is the second time Zhao Hongyi has taken the train, and the first time he has taken the train is to take the secondary school exam in Xialiangzhou City.
Zhao Hongyi likes to listen to the rhythm of "Katakata" when the train is moving, although the green carriage is crowded with people, but his heart is open, he will soon report to the normal school that he has gone to in his dream I don't know how many times!
Zhao Hongyi watched with interest as the green mountains and green water quickly retreated, and he remembered what his junior high school physics teacher said: If you take the moving train as a reference, then the hillsides on both sides of the railway are moving! In the past, he still didn't seem to understand this, but today he has experienced it for himself, and it is true! At this time, he remembered that when he entered Liangzhou City for the first time during the secondary school examination, it was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and it was not unusual to see everything! And today he is going to walk into this city to study and live, and he can't help but smirk.
It was too late to reminisce, and it was too late to imagine the future normal life, 20 minutes later, the train entered the station and arrived at the terminal station of the train, Liangzhou Station. Under the coercion of the bustling army of getting off the train, Zhao Hongyi and his brother walked out of the station.
According to the warm reminder on the admission notice, teachers and old students from Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School will pick up at the bus station and railway station today. Sure enough, a shed for receiving new students had already been erected on the east side of the exit, and a banner was clearly hung on it: Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School Freshman Reception.
"This classmate, this big brother, you have worked hard, you are a freshman, right? Come and rest, and when we've got enough of a carload of people, we'll go! Just when Zhao Hongyi and his brother were looking there, two student cadres had already come over.
As he spoke, he had already taken all the luggage in Zhao Hongyi and his brother's hands, and after making a marking card, he stored it on a truck. More than ten minutes later, the new students and their parents who had registered by train came to the reception one after another. At this time, the school bus door of Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School has been opened, and everyone obeys the unified arrangement of the teacher at the reception office, and takes the bus to the school in batches according to the order of arrival at the reception time. Zhao Hongyi and his brother were fortunate to be the first batch of passengers, and in everyone's anxious anticipation, the bus slowly drove out of the train station and headed for the city.
No, walking, walking, why did the bus go out of the city again? The road on which he walked was no longer an asphalt road, but a dirt road with mud and sand, and for a time it was dusty. "Quick! Fast! Hurry up and close the windows, everyone! The driver shouted loudly. Zhao Hongyi looked through the car window, the beautiful city of Liangzhou was gradually moving away from everyone, and the bus was heading towards the village. Everyone's mood suddenly dimmed, it seems that the beautiful and attractive city life has nothing to do with us, and we are afraid that we will become immortals of cultivation in the past three years.
When Zhao Hongyi arrived at the school, he learned that there were two normal schools in Liangzhou, one in Jiangnan and one in Jiangbei. Liangzhou No. 1 Normal School, also known as the old Liang Shi, was founded in 1905 and has a history of more than 90 years, training tens of thousands of teachers for the Liangzhou area. In order to speed up the development of teacher education and train teachers better and faster for rural schools, the Liangzhou District Administration decided to establish the Second Normal School in Anyang County, Liangzhou Prefecture in 1984, which is a young normal school. In 1986, the Second Division of Liangzhou was relocated from Anyang County to the north bank of the Chujiang River, across the river from the old Liang Division.
At the end of Xiguan Street in Liangzhou City, go down is the Chu River, there is a Xijin ferry port on the opposite side of the river, and then go inside is Jiuliwan, in the past, a PLA automobile regiment was stationed here, and then the military camp moved away, leaving this large area of simple barracks. This piece of treasure land was favored by Li Rengui, the principal of Liangzhou Second Normal School at that time, and he looked for relevant leaders, but he didn't know how much he wore out before he got this piece of land. He made up his mind to overcome all difficulties and moved Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School from Anyang County to Jiuliwan, from which several classes of students have graduated.
The bus finally finished the long loess road and began to enter the Jiuliwan section. Jiuliwan is a long and narrow river valley with houses on both sides of the valley, densely populated with houses, and a gravel road in the middle. From time to time, a dog or a chicken will come out of the car, the driver will drive very slowly, and the old students who are well versed in current affairs will tell the new students that the folk customs here are very strong, and a casual common man cannot afford to offend.
"It's here!" The bus slowly drove into the gate of Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School. The first thing that catches your eye is that the name of the "Liangzhou District No. 2 Normal School" made of gilt bronze characters is shining under the sun at this time. On a solid wood plaque at the head of the main entrance, the eight big characters of "learning from high school as a teacher, being a fan" appear vigorous and powerful, as if exuding a strong fragrance of ink, which immediately attracted Zhao Hongyi, who was looking around in the car.
"Oh, it turns out that the meaning of the word teacher is like this, and people without culture can say that it is a school for eating, which is really hateful!" Zhao Hongyi instantly had an inexplicable sense of sacredness. His father named him Hongyi, from "a scholar can't do without Hongyi, there is a long way to go", isn't learning high and being upright is the direction that he should strive for all his life?
Joy, excitement, excitement, and pride, these words are not enough to describe Zhao Hongyi's mood at this time, and now he has finally become a student of the secondary normal school.
The bus came to a steady stop in front of the newly built school building. After everyone got out of the car, the truck pulling the luggage had already arrived at the school first, and everyone quickly found their luggage according to the card slip. The registration procedures are very convenient, and the school staff has set up a workbench in the form of assembly line operations, and the payment, registration, book, meal ticket, and accommodation voucher are completed at one time. Although there were many students registering, it was not crowded at all.
The elder brother was busy paying for Zhao Hongyi's registration and going through the enrollment procedures. At this time, Zhao Hongyi had time to quietly look at this place where he would live for three years in the future.
This Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School, which is hidden in Jiuliwan, is neither a beautiful girl, nor a small jasper, and even says that many places look rough, after all, her history is not too long. Except for the new school building in front of me, everything is old. The overall layout of the school buildings is neatly distributed along the Jiuliwan River, which has been covered by a box culvert, and the campus avenue is in the middle. In the upper left corner of Campus Boulevard, northwest of the school, is a slag-paved track and field with an inner diameter of about 300 meters. Six steps further down from the athletic field, there are four new standard basketball courts, on the south side of the basketball court is the boiler room with water turned on and the bathroom of teachers and students, and further down is a small courtyard where the teachers live. From top to bottom, there are male dormitory buildings, student cafeterias, female dormitory buildings, teaching buildings, administrative office buildings, and faculty dormitories.
For Zhao Hongyi, who likes to study quietly, this campus is not beautiful, but it is very much to his appetite: far away from the city, less noisy, less unnecessary expenses, you can "hide in a small building and become a unity", and study hard!
Zhao Hongyi was assigned to the fifth class of the general teacher class. My brother quickly completed the registration procedures, there was no tuition and miscellaneous fees, only paid more than 200 yuan for books, and it was for three years, and after completing the grain and oil relationship, he also received a meal ticket worth 33 yuan for the first month.
Zhao Hongyi's dormitory is located in Room 201 of Building 1, good guys, this is a large dormitory for 21 people, and all the students of Class 5 live there. When Zhao Hongyi and his brother walked in, there were already seventeen or eighteen classmates here, the dormitory was not too big, and the twelve shelves and beds were arranged in a U-shape, which seemed crowded. At this time, the lower bunk was almost all occupied, so Zhao Hongyi had to choose an upper bunk in the middle position, climbed up and laid down the sheets and bedding.
While his brother was communicating with a classmate's father, Zhao Hongyi soon met two new friends, one was Wang Zhen from the same county, and the other was Meng Fei from Anyang County.
My brother settled everything and was ready to go back to the unit. Facing his younger brother who left home for the first time, his brother was still a little uneasy, and he repeatedly asked Luo Jun and Zhang Bo, who looked older, to take care of Zhao Hongyi. When sending his brother out of the school gate, Zhao Hongyi couldn't help crying. My brother said, "Be strong, after you get acquainted with the teacher and classmates in a few days, everything will be fine, and I will come to see you after a while!" ”
When I returned to the dormitory, all the 21 students who had been arranged to live in the dormitory had been arranged. After a while, a middle-aged male teacher in his thirties walked into the dormitory, with a strong Guanzhong accent, and greeted everyone cordially: "Hello students! I am your homeroom teacher, my name is Wang Dashun, and I am also your math teacher, welcome to Liangzhou No. 2 Normal School to study! Now I will briefly tell you about the basic situation of our class and the work arrangement of the first two days of school, ah......", in just a few words, the arrogance and roughness of the men in Guanzhong are fully revealed. Teacher Wang quickly appointed two principal and deputy dormitory directors to be responsible for arranging day students and supervising the hygiene and discipline of the dormitory. The two house leaders, one is Zhang Bo and the other is Sun Hao, and their common feature is that they are tall and big, and they both have grown beards, which are obviously older than most of the students in the class. "Needless to say, I must have been admitted after many years of review in the third year of junior high school!" Zhao Hongyi thought to himself.
When his brother left, Luo Jun and Zhang Bo were really interesting to Zhao Hongyi, one helped him bring back hot water, and the other took him to the canteen to buy dinner.
The sky was getting darker, the dormitory lights were on, and the campus street lights were on. The campus that is not familiar with it is so warm and charming under the soft lighting at this time. After a day of running, Zhao Hongyi is also tired now, in the noise of other classmates, he fell asleep sweetly, he had a dream, in the dream he has become a teacher at the moment, is explaining the Pythagorean theorem to everyone on the podium of his alma mater in junior high school......
