Chapter 159: Siya's Teaching
The moment Uncle Zhang and Xiao Jing met, all the previous memories resurfaced.
The two hugged each other and cried, although Uncle Zhang's story was a tragedy, but fortunately, he could get a little comfort from me.
I went back to the back of the counter, and after the task was completed, there was no new task on the ledger, it seemed that God wanted me to have a good rest.
But since the last task was purple, it means that there is a reward for this mission, but I have already brought Blacksmith Zhang back and have not encountered any rewards.
In fact, I was going back to the town this time to stay for a few more days, but I had just sat down to drink tea when Siya suddenly called me.
"Brother-in-law, have you had anything to do in the last few days?"
"Oh, it's fine, what's wrong, the house is uncomfortable?"
"No, it's not spring, it's a good season for spring outing."
I shook my head with a wry smile and said, "If there's anything you want, just say it, don't beat around the bush." ”
"I'm going to teach in the mountains, but I'm afraid to go alone...... That's why I want you to accompany me. ”
"How long will it take?" I couldn't help but raise my voice.
Siya seemed to hear my worries, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, you can just send me over." ”
"Eh, why did you suddenly remember to teach? You studied art, what can you do when you go? ”
"Hmph, how can I say that I also graduated from a real university. Forget it, I can't tell you on the phone for a while, you come to me, let's talk face to face. ”
After hanging up the phone, I still wondered in my heart, this little girl has never suffered much since she was a child, and when she arrives in that remote mountain village, she can adapt to it.
However, going to the mountain village to teach is also a big thing to help others and myself, and I should fully support it, so I hurriedly drove over.
When I got to the rental house where she was staying, I saw a girl in the house.
I hadn't seen this girl before, and Siya took my arm and introduced, "His name is Jingle Bell, and we are going to teach together." ”
The girl nodded nervously at me, and I nodded slightly awkwardly.
Just look at this girl who is born baby fat, her face is white and tender, and she is wearing a sky-blue sweater and a pair of light-colored jeans.
It seems that it should belong to the type of good girl in the inner species, but can such a pampered girl who has been pampered since childhood really be able to endure the hardships in the mountains?
"Brother-in-law, we have prepared our things, and the school over there has also prepared a school building for us."
I nodded slightly, looked at the two girls' suitcases, and smiled, "How long are you going to go this time?" ”
"Let's try it for a month first, we don't know if we can stand it, so we ......"
"That's right, it's okay to let you endure hardships, then when are you going to leave."
"We want to leave this afternoon and go into the mountains before dark."
Although it was only a short month, it was also full of challenges for the two little girls.
However, the two girls were very well prepared, and some ordinary daily necessities, everything they could think of were ready, and they were crammed into a car before leaving.
The place they teach is called Huang. Longgou, this place is located in Huang. The depths of Longshan. Drive along the provincial road, and when you reach the end of the road, you are ready to go up the mountain.
I filled up my tank of fuel before going up the hill and walked along the trail, and it didn't take long for the wide asphalt road to start getting narrower.
Continuing up the hill, you will pass through a village, which is relatively close to the provincial road, so the village looks pretty good.
But after walking through this village and going around the winding mountain road, I really came to Huang. When Longgou was in the ditch, the scene in front of him made him really realize what poverty is.
Most of the mountain roads in this village are seven high and eight low, the mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk, there are no cement roads in the village, most of them are dirt roads, only the section at the entrance of the village has some hexagonal brick paved roads.
The drive was very bumpy, and at this time I looked at Siya and the other girl with very serious faces.
"You two can think about it, the conditions of this place are like this, it's too late to retreat now."
Siya shook her head and said, "I have already promised the principal here, no matter how difficult it is, I have to stay for a month." ”
I nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Yes, a month is fast." ”
Not long after entering the village, I saw an uncle in ragged clothes sitting under a big tree next to him smoking. This uncle has big shoulders and a round waist, and he looks very stout, and he enjoys it leisurely with a dry cigarette in his hand.
Seeing my car passing by, he just looked up slightly and continued to enjoy the scenery of the village.
There was a land temple in the village, but when I passed by, I found that there were no statues in the land temple.
The temple door collapsed to the ground, and the stone platform was covered with dust. Continue to the village, because it is late at this time, there is no one to be seen on the street.
As we drove deeper into the village, we saw a young man in his thirties, standing at the gate of a dilapidated compound, waving at us.
"It's ......"
Siya smiled and said, "This is the headmaster here, we have arrived." ”
It is said to be a school, but in fact it is an ordinary farmhouse. However, the area of this yard is very large, and there is a playground in it that does not know whether the rules are standardized.
In the center of the playground there is a national flag supported by a long stick, and although the yard is shabby, the flag is brand new.
"Welcome, welcome, hurry...... Come on in. ”
The headmaster led us into a small room with only a shabby wooden table. It looks like the table has been tormented by the ages, and there are cracks all over the table.
"Headmaster, how many children are there in this school?"
The principal pointed to a nearby hut and said, "There are 32 children in total. ”
"What is the average age of these children?"
"The oldest is 12 years old, and the youngest is only 9 years old."
"The age gap is so big, this ......"
The headmaster sighed softly and said, "No way, the conditions here don't allow me to gather them together for class." ”
With that, the principal led us to another room. I've cleaned up this house, and you guys can live in it.
Since I had not been expected by the principal, he did not prepare a room for me in advance. I had no choice but to share a bed with the principal.
But fortunately, every house in the countryside has a fire kang, and the kang head is very large, so you don't have to worry about crowding.
