Chapter 16: One More Foot

As soon as Dahong walked into the classroom in the morning, Li Ruiqin said: "Squad Leader Yang, the school has notified you to go to Jiulong Town today to hold a big criticism meeting, and Teacher Chen asked you to organize the classmates." "You're also the deputy squad leader." "Well, it's useless for me to talk now." "Could it be that the little squad leader has also become a capitalist roader?" "Others have exposed my dad for engaging in capital repairs and forcing students to read dead books, and he has been suspended for review. Who still listens to me, this black son? ”

Hundreds of teachers and students carried red quotation bags, wore red armbands, and waved red flags, and walked more than ten miles of rural roads in front of the red sun, and finally arrived at the Jiulong Town Criticism Venue.

This is the playground of the primary school in the center of the town, and the teachers and students of more than a dozen commune central primary schools and agricultural middle schools gather here from all directions, and suddenly there is a sea of people. Red flags, red quotation bags, red armbands, red treasure books, red slogans and red suns all highlight the main colors that people advocate the most; On the trunks of trees, on electric poles, on doors and windows, on walls and eaves, layered and fluttering big-character posters, all interpret the characteristics of an era.

In front of the stage, two thick willow leaves were hung with loudspeakers, and the quotation song was played repeatedly: "...... There are thousands of clues, in the final analysis, it is just one sentence, rebellion is justified! Between the two trees, the four characters of "Great Criticism Meeting" were pulled up with iron wire; In the center of the stage hung a portrait of the old man, and on the skirt of the stage was pasted "Criticize the stinky capitalist roader Stinky old nine Zhao Zhong!" Li Ruiqin Lala Dahong said: "Who is Zhao Zhong?" He pointed to the sun in the sky and joked, "You ask about it." Hongzhong Shulin glanced at him and grimaced. Li Ruiqin said: "What are we doing here? The woods said, "Don't you think it's more lively than rushing?" ”

The tweeter gaden shut up, several people wearing big flashing gold medals walked up to the stage and took their seats, and one wearing a small shining gold light walked up to the microphone, and the host said: "The Great Criticism of the Education System of Jiulong Town starts now!" Immediately put the capitalist roaders, stinky old nine Zhao Zhong, and put them up! His voice was excited, he raised the red treasure book, and led the audience to raise their arms and chant the slogan: "Down with the capitalist roaders, the stinky old nine Zhao Zhong!" Criticize the stinky capitalist roaders, the stinky old nine Zhao Zhong! Step on one more foot and let him never turn over! ”

Zhao Zhong wore a pointed hat more than a meter high, and a rectangular cardboard sign hung on his chest, which read: "Zhao Zhong, the stinky old man of the capitalist roader" has a red cross on his name. Let the two rifles be brought to the front of the stage, and with a strong support, he knelt down with his head bowed in understanding, and the broken tiles on the ground pierced him to struggle to stand up, so that the pointed cap containing the stone, top-heavy, fell off with a thud, and the step ** immediately danced on his back. Xiao Shanjin played on the spot, and held the red treasure book, leading the audience to raise their arms and chant the slogan: "Willing to cut your body, dare to pull the emperor off the horse!" Stubborn resistance will never end well! ”

Zhao Zhong was honest, and a big flash of golden light was revealed: "...... During his tenure as the principal of the district central primary school, he vigorously promoted the education route of feudal capital repair, forcing students to read dead books and take the road of white dictatorship. The most hateful thing is to conduct all kinds of examinations, treat students as enemies, suppress students to write big-character posters, and expel rebellious students......"

Zhao Zhong knelt on the broken tiles, and his heart was piercing through the pain. But he didn't dare to make a sound, listened to the criticism, and whispered to himself: "I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong at all...... If there is an afterlife, I will not confess my sins! ”

The scorching sun overhead, no matter what kind of party you are, just radiate the heat to everyone as evenly as possible. Some teachers were worried and said, "Alas, it's too hot this day, what should I do if my students suffer from heat stroke?" "As for what is sung on the stage, no one can say one, two, three. But almost all of them noticed this scene, Zhao Zhong, who had been kneeling on the broken tiles, suddenly fell on the platform, and let the small flash of golden light lead the audience how to raise their arms and shout, and how the steps of the ** son danced wildly on his body, he never moved again.

As a result, the great criticism meeting ended successfully in the triumphant singing, and the big and small golden lights flashed on the stage, and no one was seen in a flash. The veterans and soldiers in the audience, some with umbrellas, and more with their bags to cover the scorching sun with their hands, rushed to disperse. Da Hung dragged his heavy steps, hungry and thirsty, like the leaves of a wilted tree in the street. Passing by the cold water stall, Hong Zhong searched his pocket for a long time, and finally took out a few cents to buy a few glasses of cold water, and the two of them had a drink.

The woods exclaimed in amazement, "Look, the golden light has entered the restaurant." Hongzhong looked up and said, "Hey, we all wear red armbands, hold red treasure books, and carry red flags, why do we burn our throats, stare and flatten our stomachs, and can only stare dryly, but they can enter the restaurant to eat and drink." Zhang Junliang said: "People are different. There are a few kinds of red flowers. ”

In front of the windowsill of the restaurant, several pairs of eyes stared at the dazzling golden light at the same time, smoking and drinking at the same time, the strong aroma of wine and food was overwhelming, and they seemed to be able to smell the fragrance and satisfy their hunger.

Li Ruiqin, her father and Chen Qingying, and several teachers also came to the restaurant, Dahong met her gaze and avoided in a panic, and the forest said, "Let's go, don't let people see the joke." ”

Li Ruiqin turned to her father and said, "Dad, I'm so thirsty. Principal Li touched the money and said, "Then you go buy cold water to drink first, and we will eat at the front restaurant." Chen Qingying knew what she was thinking, and hurriedly handed her a yuan and said, "I have change." Principal Li said, "Teacher Chen, what kind of thing is this?" "She's my student."

Behind the corner of the restaurant, Dahong Juxiang was silent, and the forest said, "I'm not hungry at all, I just want to stand in front of the window and see the strange." Hong Zhong retorted: "Isn't it strange who eats and drinks with chopsticks to move their mouths?" Don't want to eat the pot and turn the stove? Zhang Junliang grabbed the conversation and said: "That's it, the woods are quite fashionable, and the scholars are playing empty." ”

Li Ruiqin suddenly turned around the corner and appeared, saying, "Dahong, I'm looking for you." "What's the matter?" "Teacher Chen, please drink cold water." Li Ruiqin said as she took out two catties of food stamps and one yuan of dimes and stuffed them into Dahong's hands. Zhang Junliang grimaced and said, "Our stars follow the moon and get light." Hong Zhong said: "God, there are so many, we can't finish two bowls of noodles each." The woods secretly pulled him and whispered, "You are so ashamed! ”

Li Ruiqin walked over, and Dahong said: "Let's go to the restaurant, and the woods are not hungry and wait here." After that, he gave Hongzhong Zhang Junliang a few glances, pulled up the chrysanthemum and left, but the forest followed closely with a red face.
