Chapter 43: Mausai Epiphany
Zhang Guangming wants Professor Guo to have something to do after work, so he will no longer think about those sad things.
He wanted to teach Professor Guo carving and painting, so he asked him if he would like to learn it.
Professor Guo smiled and said, "I'm happy to learn!" ”
So, Professor Guo followed Zhang Guangming to learn carving and painting every night.
Zhang Guangming was afraid that Professor Guo would be overly sad because of being degraded, and he was even more afraid that he would be driven crazy by the embarrassment of being like Nietzsche and Van Gogh because he had no way to serve the country because of his talents.
As soon as he walked into the barn of his production team, he smelled a fishy smell and felt extremely unpleasant.
After a few days, I gradually adapted to the environment here.
The April day is starting to get hotter, and the smell of animal dung on Professor Guo's body is getting stronger and stronger.
Because he loves cleanliness, he is very particular about hygiene.
On a whim, he went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to find a large plastic bag containing things and put it on the roof, first tied one end tightly with a fine hemp rope, and then poured a bucket of well water into the end of the opening, and then tied the mouth of the plastic bag tightly.
He went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a plastic pipe for plasterer leveling.
He plunged one end into the water and pulled the other down the wall of the house.
In the evening, Zhang Guangming came to Professor Guo's house, and Professor Guo immediately said to him happily: "I just took a shower at home, but I feel comfortable." ”
Zhang Guangming had never heard of the fact that he could take a bath at home, but it was the first time he had heard of it.
He hurriedly asked: What method did Professor Guo use?
"I put the water in a plastic bag and then I put a plastic pipe into it.
The second is to make full use of the heat energy of the sun to dry the cold water in the plastic bag into hot water.
Finally, using the siphon phenomenon, what about taking a bath for the first time?
I sucked in the plastic pipe below with all my might, and the hot water above would flow down continuously.
Isn't it okay to take a shower in this way?
In the following summer, as long as there is a sunny day, as long as the water bag is constantly in the water, I can take a hot shower every day! ”
Zhang Guangming couldn't help but praise: "Huh? The eldest brother came up with this bathing method is really good! ”
The next day, Zhang Guangming also went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to find Li Xiaoxiao, and also asked her for a plastic bag for packaging.
Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but admire: "Look at which of our villagers has lice and fleas on them?" Hehe, that's a great idea!
If all the villagers used the method that Professor Guo came up with, they would no longer have to travel one or twenty miles to the county seat to take a bath.
Then everyone will be able to take a shower at home in the future, which is great! ”
"Yes, yes, Professor Guo is smart, and his invention has solved the big problem of bathing the villagers!" Zhang Guangming praised Professor Guo first, and then said, "Then I will ask my sister-in-law to bring in a batch of plastic sheets." ”
The salesman Li Xiaoxiao smiled and agreed again and again: Zhongzhongzhong!
Wait until Li Xiaoxiao told Zhang Guangming that he had brought the plastic bag in.
Zhang Guangming immediately went to the loudspeaker of the brigade to shout and tell the masses about the bathing method invented by Professor Guo.
So the villagers went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a plastic bag, and took a bath according to the method Zhang Zhishu said, washing away lice, fleas, and dust on their bodies.
Professor Guo has to take a bath twice a day with hot water from the sun, come back at noon and wash again at night, and change his clothes twice a day.
That night, Zhang Guangming was carrying a cloth bag with some gourds, and today he was going to teach Professor Guo to carve gourd paintings.
As soon as he stepped into Professor Guo's room, he saw him holding a pen and writing poems in a notebook.
He asked, "Are you writing poetry again?" Can I appreciate it?
Both of them loved poetry, so the two of them soon became poetry friends and good friends.
Zhang Guangming turned the first page and read:
Homecoming Thoughts
In the cold spring, he left home and returned to his hometown alone, and the crows crows were sad and sad.
Bitterness overflows with sorrow, and the heart is despised by others.
"Your poem is very sad, do you mean that the villagers in our village look down on you?"
Professor Guo hurriedly explained: "No, no, this poem was written by me when I came with a sad heart, and I improvised a poem that left melancholy. ”
He sat down and said, "Don't you know, at that time, when I heard that the unit leader was going to send me to our village, I almost scared me stupid. ”
"Why do you say that?" Zhang Guangming asked again puzzled.
At that time, I thought to myself: This is bad, the villagers will definitely think that I should have returned to my hometown, where would I have thought that I, I would meet the villagers in such a depressed way!
At that time, I thought, will the fellows despise me? Professor Guo explained.
When Zhang Guangming was about to open his mouth, Professor Guo said, "This time I will be ready to go back to my hometown, as Mr. Lu Xun said: "Hengmei Leng pointed at Qianfu".
I think that as long as I bury my head in sweeping the streets, feed the livestock, get out of the pen, and "bow my head and be willing to be a cow for my children"!
But what I didn't expect was that so many people came here at once to selflessly help me repair my home and renovate the hospital.
There are so many people who have generously helped me!
The most important thing is that you two are so kind to me!
He pointed to his heart and said, "The people in my hometown make me feel so warm here!"
"Bright, now I have written another sentimental poem, I will read it to you."
Professor Guo said in the language of gratitude, and he recited affectionately:
"Homecoming"
Mistakenly resentment of hometown and family, and the more birds migrate to find warmth.
The gift increases affection, and the kindness is hidden in the heart.
Zhang Guangming agreed with his words, and said: "Yes, the simple and kind fellows are indeed respectable and respectable!" ”
He said with some excitement: "Come on, come on, I'll teach you how to carve and paint." ”
Professor Guo said seriously: "Then you can carve the scene of the enthusiastic labor when everyone helped me repair the house and renovate the courtyard on the gourd."
I'm going to pass it on from generation to generation! ”
After Zhang Guangming heard his words, he said happily: "Okay, I'll teach you how to carve gourd paintings." ”
Professor Guo held a carving knife in one hand and a gourd in the other, and followed Zhang Guangming to carve one knife after another very seriously.
He wants to carve the deep friendship of the people of his hometown into his heart and never forget it.
At this time, Professor Guo thought to himself: I must do something for the village, so what can I do to help everyone?
Ever since he came to the village, Professor Guo has been depressed.
He was not sad because he did the hard and pickled work every day, but because he thought: Is it possible that my stomach of learning has been wasted like this?
He often couldn't sleep at night because of this, and when he thought of all the hardships he had suffered, and felt that he was really miserable, he secretly wept to himself.
Zhang Guangming saw that Professor Guo's eyes were red and swollen from crying, so he asked him why.
Professor Guo said sadly: "I am very sad in my heart.
One? It's thinking about my rough life.
What about two? I want to study the problem of agricultural machinery manufacturing for our village.
This machine manufacturing needs to be tested, and various parts must be assembled to become a machine. ”
Zhang Guangming said: "What the eldest brother said is true. ”
Professor Guo continued: "But what worries me is that our village is very poor, and we can't afford to buy those parts.
Even if someone was willing to lend me money to buy parts for those farming machines, I couldn't do research and manufacturing overtly.
You don't know, I'm miserable.
Because I was desperate to help everyone with the new machine, but I couldn't.
That's why I'm feeling uncomfortable.
Whining...... Professor Guo cried and said, "So I can't lift my spirits every day, I just want to use alcohol to kill my sorrows." ”
Zhang Guangming said very anxiously: "When we live, we have to think about how to do our best and make our own dedication to the people, so as to live in vain for decades in the world!"
You are a doctor who has studied abroad, and you are a high-level intellectual!
For the sake of the motherland's agricultural construction, we should make unremitting efforts to manufacture advanced machines for farming!
This is the responsibility of a high-tech talent! My great professor, great expert comrade! ”
Professor Guo wiped away his tears and stared at Zhang Guangming.
Zhang Guangming knew very well that a few words of persuasion from a person who had fallen into a deep quagmire of pain would make it difficult for him to get out of the haze immediately.
Therefore, he took the trouble to continue, "I feel that the long road of life is like wading through mountains and rivers, and it will never be smooth sailing."
Without some bitter wind and rain, it is difficult to reach the other side of our ideals!
On the way forward, we are either trapped in steep cliffs and dangerous walls, and we are hit by wind, frost, rain and snow, or in deep ravines, and we are blocked by thorns and thorns. ”
Professor Guo wiped away his tears, nodded his head and said, "Yes, indeed." ”
Zhang Guangming continued: "The road ahead may have all kinds of tribulations, which make it difficult for us to trek on the way.
Encountering setbacks and ups and downs is a terrible adversity that we cannot avoid.
Then we should be brave in life!
No matter how difficult it is, you should not give up!
Brother Guo, you have to remember to sharpen your courage, wipe away your tears, and rush forward!
Let the courage and strength come to practice every step of our sonorous journey.
Let us be the strong in life!
Challenge and overcome all the difficulties and obstacles encountered along the way!
Don't be afraid of adversity, stagnate or frustrated or depressed, that is the weak's self-trapping, waste of time! ”
After Professor Guo listened to Zhang Guangming's persuasion, his eyes immediately flashed with tears of excitement, and his depressed mood also improved.
He nodded again in agreement.
Zhang Guangming struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Look at those PLA soldiers in the war-torn era!"
Some of them were blown up by enemy aircraft and artillery, and their bodies were bruised and completely damaged.
But none of them flinched, and they continued to fight!
What are they for?
They are for the people to be able to turn over and be liberated!
And why should we be trapped in hardship and not exert ourselves? ”
At this time, Professor Guo wanted to agree, but he blinked, as if he didn't dare to make up his mind.
Zhang Guangming said emotionally: "As long as you have the heart to serve the country, why worry about the pillars of the country?
I can see that you will never lose your major in advanced mechanization research!?
Wouldn't it be good for you to be an underground researcher and fabricator? ”
He said these stirring words with sincere feelings and emotion, which made Professor Guo, who had been frustrated for a long time, feel his blood boiling, and made him feel even more energetic.
Zhang Guangming's open, righteous and well-intentioned persuasion made Professor Guo have an epiphany.
It also made Professor Guo suddenly have a positive fighting spirit.
Professor Guo looked at Zhang Guangming with a happy look and said: I am glad to have met your confidant at the moment of being degraded!
How inspiring are the passionate words of your brother! He made up his mind and said, "Good! I promise you, from today I will start working on agricultural mechanization! ”
Zhang Guangming said excitedly: "As for the problem of raw materials you mentioned, what are the parts that we can afford to buy after overcoming all difficulties?" Let's buy it.
And what about those who can't afford it?
Then let's figure out how to make it ourselves!
In order to realize this wish, we will do our best, and one day, the ideal will be realized! ”
Professor Guo's red, swollen eyes radiated a long-lost light.
He said excitedly: Brother Guangming, what you said is true!
For the sake of our villagers and the people of the motherland to solve the problem of agricultural mechanization, I can no longer live in the world, let alone be decadent and self-abandoned!
Just now you said that for the sake of our village, you begged me to study the great cause of agricultural mechanization?
I promise! It can also be regarded as contributing a little bit to our village and the agricultural construction of the motherland!
When Zhang Guangming heard this, he happily got up from his chair, strode up to the professor, clasped his hands tightly with excitement and said, "That's right!" On behalf of all the villagers of Makinohua Village, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you, big brother! ”
Professor Guo hurriedly helped Zhang Guangming and said unhappily, "Huh? Brother Guangming, what are you doing here?
Aren't you out of sight?
Sit down and listen to me. ”
These two people with high IQs sat down and began to plan......
