200. Longing eyes
Sun Jiashu and the green leaves soon came to the school gate, only to see the children who were still standing at the door when they went down the mountain, but now each of them had a small umbrella of different colors on their heads, they stood at the school gate in a daze, staring at the road with a longing eye, as if waiting for someone, seeing the green leaves appear at the intersection, they all jumped happily to meet them, and their mouths were shouting: "Oh, Teacher Li is back, Teacher Li is back." β
Hearing the shouts of this group of children, Green Leaf knew that they were the wrong person, she could guess what the situation was now, they were waiting for their Teacher Li, they must be waiting for her to come back to class, and when they went down the mountain in the morning, they were still waiting, and now it was raining and they were still waiting, which showed how important Teacher Li was to them.
"Children, you have recognized the wrong person, I am not your Teacher Li." Green Leaf said to them with a smile.
When the children got closer, they realized that it was not the person they were looking for who was standing at the intersection, and their eyes, which had been shining just now, quickly dimmed, but they still showed longing eyes.
"What are you waiting for Mr. Li to do?" Green Leaf asked.
Hearing Green Leaf's question, several children shyly stepped back, pushing each other, no one was willing to be the first to answer, and finally a taller girl spoke.
"Teacher Li has returned to the city, she said that she would come back in a few days to give us a lecture, but she has not come back yet, and we are waiting for her every day." Said the tall girl.
"Oh, you see, it's raining now, and Mr. Li won't come back at this time." Green Leaf said.
"Yes, Teacher Li said when she left, she will definitely come back, we must wait for her to come back, Auntie, our Teacher Li is beautiful, she also loves to wear white dresses, long legs, as tall and beautiful as you." The girl looked to be eleven or twelve years old, with two large thick braids, and dressed very plainly, but with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and spoke very pleasantly.
"Oh, I'm your friend Teacher Li, do you welcome me to visit your school?" Midoriha said with a smile, she didn't know why she said that.
"Of course, Auntie, come with me." The tall girl held the umbrella in her hand on top of the green leaf, "Auntie, are you here to give us a lecture?" β
"yes." Green Leaf said as she walked, as soon as Green Leaf left, Sun Jiashu and Ah Huang also immediately followed behind her, and when they saw Ah Huang, several children were frightened and screamed.
"Students, don't be afraid, its name is Ah Huang, it is a good dog, it never bites, don't believe you reach out and touch it?" Green Leaf said busily.
I heard that the big yellow dog does not bite, a few children became bold, they walked to Ah Huang, Ah Huang just bowed his head in a friendly manner, his eyes were so warm, there was no murder when chasing the car party, it seems that he is also a good disguised guy, seeing that Ah Huang really does not bite, there is a bold boy even touched its ears with his hand, Ah Huang just licked his hand kindly, Ah Huang is really a good dog, the children are relieved to enter the school gate. Entering the campus, I saw a flagpole standing in the center, the five-star red flag on it hung down due to the rain, lazily swaying with the wind, this may be the only sign of the school, the yard is overgrown with flowers and plants, neatly trimmed, it should be wildflowers and weeds, because the flowers are not big, and they are all kinds, all of them are common flowers and plants on the mountain.
"What's your name?" Green leaves asked the tall girl.
"My name is Shanhua, Auntie, can we call you Teacher in the future?" Shanhua said expectantly looking at the green leaves.
"Of course you can, you can call me Mr. Luye in the future."
"Teacher Luye is good, Uncle PLA is good." Several children said in unison that when a boy heard that there was a teacher, he happily shouted and ran to the village, shouting as he ran: "Village chief, we have a teacher, village chief, we can go to class!" β
Shanhua leaned on the ear of Luye and said, "Teacher Luye, you are even more beautiful than our Teacher Li." After the child's praise, the green leaf was a little shy, Sun Jiashu gently touched the green leaf with his elbow, stretched out his thumb, and smiled knowingly.
Green Leaf glared at Sun Jiashu, and then said to Shanhua, "Shanhua, let me see your classroom, okay?" β
Several children quickly led the way in front of them, stopped in front of the only house in the school, opened the wooden door of the house, and Yamaka said, "This is our classroom." "Green leaves went in and looked at it, I couldn't believe my eyes, this is also called a classroom? In front of it was a podium, with a blackboard hanging on it, no desks underneath, just a long wooden board on top of a stone pier, and the windows were large, but there was no glass, all covered with plastic sheeting to protect them from the wind and rain.
"Shanhua, where are your teachers here?"
"Teacher Li said that she would go back to the city and come back in a few days, but she hasn't come back after a month." Yamaka said.
"Maybe Teacher Li has something at home, what are the other teachers doing?" Green Leaf asked again.
"There is only one teacher in our school, Mr. Li." Shanhua lowered her head.
"Only one teacher in class? Seeing that you are of different ages, you should be in different grades, how can a teacher go back to class? "Midoriha couldn't believe it.
"Our teachers teach different grades of content in a day, and they listen carefully when they should listen to themselves, and when they shouldn't listen by themselves, they can choose to listen to the lectures or choose to study on their own, but now we don't even have a teacher, so we have to study by ourselves every day." Shanhua's eyes turned a little red as she spoke.
"Oh, I see, it's not easy for a teacher to teach here." Green Leaf said silently.
"Before leaving, Teacher Li said to let us study by ourselves, we are studying by ourselves every day, and we look forward to her coming back soon." Yamaka said.
"That's the case, what about your village cadres?"
Hearing Luye ask the village cadres, Shanhua said: "Shanwa is calling, she will come over in a while, oh, Luye teacher, look, the village chief is here." Looking in the direction of Shanhua's finger, I saw an old man of fifty or sixty years old walking into the school, he was holding a cigarette pouch in his hand, his face was dark, and the years had carved a circle of marks on his face, and he said happily as he walked: "Where is the teacher?" Where are the teachers? β
"He's our village chief." Shanhua pointed to the old man and said.
"Oh, are you the teacher the kids call it? It's really a city person, and he looks handsome. The village elder said from afar.
"Hello village chief, I am a college student who is currently in school, I heard that there are no teachers in the school, I want to take advantage of the vacation to tutor them for their homework." Green Leaf said generously.
"That's really good, we are worried, Teacher Li will not come back this time, seeing that the children have pulled down a big class, many villagers have spent money to transfer their children to the school at the bottom of the mountain." The village chief said.
"Why don't you send a teacher from above?" Green Leaf asked puzzled.
"The pie is sent a lot, but we can't keep people here, just this year we sent three teachers, but the longest stay is only three months, the previous paragraph of the teacher Li, said to go home to see, no, go back and don't look back, it's really good that you're here, the pay is not said, the villagers are just smashing the pot and selling iron for the babies to go to school." The village chief said.
"Village chief, I don't want any pay, even if I volunteer to teach, but I came during the school holidays, and when the school opens, I have to go back, and then you have to find another teacher."
"Let's take one step at a time, we are already very grateful if you can do this, you see, we are only happy, and I can't think of asking the teacher to go back to the village to drink saliva, go, go to the village to sit down, the villagers will be happy when they know."
"No, the village chief, we have to go back here to avoid the rain for a while."
"Where are you going back now, and this PLA comrade, he is with you, right?"
"He's my boyfriend, and he's in the barracks on the mountain." Green Leaf said shyly.
"You two are really talented and beautiful, you see, our conditions here are too poor, I really wronged you."
"Village Chief, you see that there is not even a table in the classroom, can you add some desks, chairs and necessary teaching utensils to the classroom?" Everyone's attention was on the green leaves just now, and he simply regarded Sun Jiashu as a transparent person, and at this moment he finally had a chance to speak.
"Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, you still don't know the situation in our village, the poorest village in our village, the per capita annual income is less than 200 yuan, and the village really can't come up with so much money. The village chief said helplessly.
"Village chief, do you think this will work? You first find someone to order a batch of tables and chairs, this money will be paid by me, this is 200 yuan, you pay a fixed amount first, I didn't bring so much money today, I'll send it to you later. After Sun Jiashu finished speaking, he took out two hundred yuan from his pocket.
Lu Ye hurriedly touched Sun Jiashu with her hand, which means that it costs at least a few thousand yuan to buy tables and chairs, where can you get so much money as a soldier, but when she touched Sun Jiashu, Sun Jiashu had already said it in one go, so she had to laugh and say to the village chief: "Village chief, you can accept it." βγ
"No, you can't do it, you are obliged to teach the children, how can you still ask for money? We resolutely cannot accept this money. The village chief hurriedly excused himself.
"Village chief, this is a little bit of our heart, even if we donate money to help students, can't we?" Sun Jiashu said sincerely.
"This, this γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" The village chief stretched out his hand and took the money tremblingly, this is two hundred yuan, enough for a family of three to spend for a year, and they have to donate a lot of money, it is really a good person. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly walked briskly to the courtyard under the crooked neck tree, on which hung a piece of steel, which was the bell of the school for the beginning and end of class, and the village chief picked up the hammer that was placed under the tree. He struck it with a hammerγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
