Chapter 4 Dancing for the first time in my life

After music and songs, the most attractive entertainment for students is ballroom dancing. A group of "children" who have just come out of the ***** and are accustomed to ***** thinking are naturally very curious and fresh about the west wind blowing from the country that has just opened a crack.

As for ballroom dancing, although everyone likes it very much, although everyone is ready to move, no one can dance, but this can't stop them from being active and very intelligent. First of all, some female students found a way to find a teacher at the dance school and learned the standard ballroom dance from the teacher, and then the spark quickly burned in the schoolyard. All grades and classes moved, or danced in groups to the nearby Cultural Palace, or danced directly in the dormitory. Of course, there is a very important condition for dancing in the dormitory: there must be a VCR and a corresponding music tape for ballroom dancing.

These seemingly extremely difficult things could not be difficult for this group of very smart and enthusiastic young people. Soon, a student in the second class who lives in the provincial capital, named Li Xu (the classmates in the class nickname him Brother Xu), and is very keen to organize group activities in the class, took action.

Brother Xu is not in vain. Not to mention that he is handsome and chic, the key is that he does not hesitate to contribute, sweat, and pay money in order to organize various collective activities. Brother Xu also has an advantage that the whole class admires very much, that is, he must do what he says, he will do what he does, and he is very good and safe. As a result, he quickly gained the recognition and respect of the whole class, and even at every large-scale class reunion after graduation, Brother Xu was the soul of the class.

This time, he came forward to organize a ballroom dance activity for the whole class, and the time was set for the New Year's Day holiday in 1980. When the time was set, he ran around alone and borrowed everything he needed.

On the morning of New Year's Day, he organized the students in the boys' dormitory to move the tables and chairs in the dormitory, hung up a string of colorful lamps that could shine, and carefully prepared talcum powder, which was sprinkled on the relatively rough ground before dancing, so that the movement of the footsteps was much easier and lighter when dancing.

On New Year's Day in 1980, compared to the cold north, the weather in the southern provincial capital was in late autumn and early winter. As far as the eye can see, it is still full of greenery and the climate is very pleasant. Of all the science and engineering universities, the medical school has the highest number of female students. There are 14 female students in the second class of 79 in Huaxia Medical College, which also shows from one side that women are more suitable for the profession of doctors, which is a digression and will not be discussed.

It was the first time to organize such an attractive and trendy event, and of course the whole class was present. Although the dormitory is a bit crowded, it can accommodate 16 boys, move things, squeeze when everyone sits, and a dance floor in the middle is not big enough for everyone to relax and dance.

After dinner, the students went to the boys' dormitory one after another. It can be seen that both male and female classmates have been carefully dressed up, and all of them look energetic and energetic, and the breath of youth is coming. Only Tang Boqiang is an alternative existence, his shyness, his introversion, and his extreme inferiority complex for his appearance make him not interested in such activities. During the five years of college, he hid from the collective activities organized by the class, and followed silently when he couldn't hide, which seemed incompatible with the classmates in the class, let alone integrated into the activities.

Tang Boqiang tonight also has this strategy. He chose a place near the dormitory, next to the window, where the lights were most dim, and sat with his head down.

The lights came on, the tubes were turned off, and the light immediately dimmed. This just right amount of light creates an atmosphere that is more suitable for the secretion of hormones and more exciting for the dancers. The "dance floor" also became blurred in the flickering lights. The soothing music immediately sounded, the rhythmic, soothing music slowly made Tang Boqiang relax, he likes this kind of music, he also thinks that dancing is such music, it should be such music, so as to reflect the elegance, lyricism and beauty of dancing.

Those students who have already studied can't hold back. The male students who took the initiative began to invite the female students to the center of the "dance floor" and began to dance in a soothing rhythm, they held hands and hugged their waists, such a scene made Tang Boqiang, who was hiding in the dark, blush and heartbeat: male and female classmates can have such "intimate" contact.

As soon as the song was played, the music suddenly changed style. The strong, faster-paced drum beat was accompanied by beautiful female vocals and singing, and the scene suddenly boiled. Everyone seemed to be dragged onto the dance floor by the beat of the drums, twisting their waists rhythmically, their heads gently tilted upward, their eyes gently closed, and their youthful faces flushed, looking full of joy and intoxication.

This kind of music style changed too quickly, and Tang Boqiang, who had been sitting quietly, seemed to be infected, and the soles of his feet gently slapped the ground with the rhythm. Still, he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and the music was so powerful.

Of course, if you jump at such a pace, it is estimated that no one will be able to stand it. Sure enough, after a while, the soothing music sounded again, and Tang Boqiang had to admire Brother Xu's control of the rhythm so accurately and timely.

Just when Tang Boqiang was out of his mind, a snow-white hand stretched out in front of him, and a "please" penetrated the sound of music to Tang Boqiang's ears, the sound was like a warbler's song and swallow language, and it was more like the sound of heaven. Tang Boqiang stood up flattered, gently holding this soft and boneless hand, he also followed the example of other classmates, his right hand gently hugged the slender waist of this female classmate, and jumped to the rhythm of the music, Tang Boqiang whispered while jumping: "I'm sorry, I have never learned." ”

"It's okay, you follow the rhythm, I'll take you to dance." There was a magic in her soft voice, which dragged Tang Boqiang to the center of the dance floor.

Tang Boqiang saw this female classmate on the day of admission, and was only amazed by her beauty and unusual temperament. feels that the "school flower" in the second year of junior high school is no longer comparable in front of her, and the one in front of her is the real beauty. It's just that Tang Boqiang didn't know that she was his classmate at that time, and he didn't know that there were a large number of beautiful goddesses in the class.

Led by her, Tang Boqiang got so close to a strange beauty for the first time in his life. She is as angry as an orchid, her body is charming, and her figure is even more bumpy. This made Tang Boqiang, who had just begun to enter puberty, suddenly have a surge of hormones, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his face was also "burning", and various physiological reactions almost burst out together. To use the vocabulary that Tang Boqiang later learned to describe the scene at that time: it was simply the rhythm of nosebleeds!

The girl still calmly led Tang Boqiang's dance steps, but Tang Boqiang was very embarrassed at this time. Finally, at the end of the song, the girl politely said thank you to Tang Boqiang, but Tang Boqiang was still in a state of confusion, he didn't know how to get back to his seat, but vaguely remembered that the girl told him that her name was Liang Wenling and she was from eastern Guangdong, no wonder she could talk to him in Cantonese.

When Tang Boqiang came back to his senses, he did not hesitate to find an excuse to leave the dormitory, and walked slowly to the large sports field next to the dormitory alone, he needed time to calm down his mood.

As he walked, he replayed what had just happened. Yes, it must be like this: the kind-hearted Liang Wenling saw Tang Boqiang sitting alone in the corner, and her kindness made her feel compassionate, so she made such a move: took the initiative to invite Tang Boqiang to dance. She is young, beautiful and dances beautifully, and there is no shortage of boys who invite her to dance, but she chose to take the initiative to invite Tang Boqiang, and patiently, lowered her profile to teach Tang Boqiang to dance.

The smart Tang Boqiang is not stupid enough to think that Liang Wenling likes him. He knew very well that he didn't have much capital to make Liang Wenling like him, but Liang Wenling's kindness alone was enough for Tang Boqiang to miss and be grateful for a lifetime. One day in the second year of college, when he saw Liang Wenling snuggled up to a tall and handsome boy in the same grade, although Tang Boqiang had a faint sour feeling in his heart, he was still happy for Liang Wenling, he felt that only such a tall and handsome boy was worthy of the kind and beautiful Liang Wenling. At the class reunion decades after graduation, Liang Wenling, who was still beautiful, often teased Tang Boqiang, but Tang Boqiang always seemed willing to accept her kind ridicule with a soft heart.

China in 1979 was in ruins. The country is very clear about the situation of the people and the situation of the country, although there is a serious shortage of talents, the country urgently needs the talents needed by ZTE, but limited to the national strength and the living conditions of the people at that time, the country also does what it can when recruiting students, and adopts the strategy of "strict entry and strict exit", and later statistics, the enrollment rate of key universities in the country is about 3%, which shows the difficulty of studying in universities.

For these "proud sons of the sky", the state adopts a bursary subsidy policy so that every student can study with peace of mind. Like Tang Boqiang's Huaxia Medical College, except for a few students with good family backgrounds, other students have received the highest stipend (16 yuan per month). At the same time, because of the scarcity of materials at that time, the state adopted a quota supply system for many scarce materials. Therefore, Tang Boqiang and his family can also receive a certain amount of food stamps, oil stamps, cloth stamps, sugar stamps, soap stamps and other daily necessities supply stamps every month. Among these bills, the students used the most to pay a certain amount of food and oil stamps in proportion to the number of meal tickets they bought each month, and they rarely used other tickets.

For students who are in the development period, in the era of material scarcity, it is normal for families to have a difficult family situation, not to mention the luxury of eating well. With the gradual recovery of the country's economy, although the school continues to issue various state-allocated tickets to students, the use of various bills has begun to be phased out within the school. In this way, some of the bills in the hands of the students came in handy.
