Chapter Eighty-Three: The Red Luan's First Move
Out of the mountain pass, I walked all the way north, and there was an open space in front of me. Sun Xiaohong rode her bicycle and galloped along the slightly steep road. An endless field whistled past her. The sun shines under her feet, and her mood flies all the way.
On the first day of work, fifteen miles away, she was afraid that she would not be late, so she accelerated the pedaling speed under her feet, and soon arrived at the school gate. The two doors of the school were open, and there was silence inside. Maybe she came too early, and the campus was quiet, and there was no one in sight. Sun Xiaohong got off the bike, holding the handlebars, she stood by the wall at the school gate nervously, her legs hesitating, her eyes looking in timidly for a long time, and she didn't dare to take a single step.
Jingxin Middle School, just to the south of the village, is a brand-new school building, scattered and orderly, surrounded by red walls and green trees, and even the volleyball rack on the playground, with infinite vitality. The furnishings in the school are red and white, simple and steady, tense and serious. A gust of autumn wind blew and the leaves rustled, Sun Xiaohong listened attentively, as if saying goodbye to the past, and then walked into an environment suitable for herself.
Soon, several students from afar came to the door on their own bikes. They got off their bikes, pushed the carts into the playground, put the bikes in the designated places, and went back to class for morning self-study.
Seeing that more and more students came to school, Sun Xiaohong also pushed her bicycle, followed them, and walked in. She stood silently on the playground and waited for a long time, and when she saw a few people who looked like students, she also walked into the school gate uncertainly. "Maybe they're new too, right?" Sun Xiaohong raised her face and saw them coming step by step, she kept guessing in her heart. Immediately after that, people came one after another.
Sun Xiaohong did not guess wrong, in this recruitment examination, the school selected a total of 18 qualified candidates from the graduates of four counties and one district. On the first day of today, everyone rushed to the school, no matter how far they went.
After everyone arrived, the old principal specially summoned their little teachers to the office and held an emergency meeting. After the meeting, a detailed division of labor was made. During her internship, Sun Xiaohong was assigned to the Chinese group, and her task was to teach Chinese classes in the first grade of junior high school. In order to let her teach here with peace of mind, her mother specially sold a pig and bought her a sika deer brand bicycle.
There are a lot of people in the language group, and there are 13 teachers in total. In addition to teaching Teacher Li, who is in the third year of junior high school, he has to go home every afternoon to deliver milk to his children, and Sun Xiaohong is face-to-face with the 11 male teachers who combine the old, middle and young people. In order to avoid trouble, as soon as Sun Xiaohong walked into the school gate every day, she put her bicycle in front of the window of the teaching office, immediately went to the office, silently took out the lesson plan from the drawer, and hurriedly walked into the classroom to give the students morning self-study.
After the morning self-study, she did not return to the office, and stayed in the classroom until the bell rang, and she continued to teach the students. After returning to the teaching office, she took out a piece of wax paper and sat in front of her desk, lowered her head to engrave the test paper on the steel plate, and then printed it out for the children to test, and when the students had self-study classes in the afternoon, she went to the class to explain the problems on the test papers. The rest of the time, she sat quietly in her office and bowed her head to write lesson plans. She has a full schedule, leaving little free time for herself.
In this way, she has more opportunities to be with students. Students also enjoy listening to her lectures. Sometimes, when she stood on the podium, she felt that the students were taller than her. After every class exam, she saw that the children were satisfied with the test results, and she felt that she had lived so fully and that she needed to live so fully.
After a semester, Sun Xiaohong's four-month internship expired, and the Chinese performance of the class she taught was also the first in the school. Therefore, she was officially hired as a Chinese teacher by the school, and Sun Xiaohong's teaching level was highly valued by the school leaders, so she remained in the Chinese group to teach the first year of junior high school.
After the winter vacation, a female teacher surnamed Xu came to the language group, sat at the same table as Sun Xiaohong, and also taught the first year of junior high school. At that time, she was pregnant, she saw that Sun Xiaohong was busy every day, probably out of curiosity, when she saw that Sun Xiaohong had finished carving the steel plate and was memorizing the class, she took advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders in the office, so she came over with a smile, looked at Sun Xiaohong, who was bowing her head and writing a lesson plan, and whispered: "Xiaohong, do you have a partner?" If not, can I introduce you to one? ”
When Sun Xiaohong heard this, she was stunned for a moment. I saw that her face was "brushed" and red like a piece of cloth. That's not all, the flush on her face went from her eyebrows to the bottom of her neck, as if all the blood was pouring into her face. To outsiders, this is just an unintentional remark, and you don't have to take it to heart, but her sudden reaction startled Teacher Xu, she has never seen a girl who can be so shy, and deliberately teased her: "Yes is yes, no is no, what age is it, and it looks like a lady of everyone, making me so nervous." It's not that I'm talking about you, I haven't said who it is, what's your blushing? ”
"Didn't you have it in the first place? I don't want to blush, it wants to be red, and I can't control it. Sun Xiaohong muttered quietly, she suddenly remembered the scene when her mother forced her to go on a blind date, raised her head and frowned, lowered her head again, and continued to engrave the wax paper on the steel plate in her hand.
"No one believes it when they say they die, you see that these new teachers in our school all have objects, and a beautiful girl like you will have no object, who are you fooling, I don't want to say pull down!" Teacher Xu pretended to be angry, she wanted to hear how Sun Xiaohong explained.
"Not really! If so, I'll hide it from you! Sun Xiaohong put down the pen and said with a smile. She felt that she had finally been admitted to the teacher, and she wanted to take this opportunity to teach and review at the same time, and then take next year's social adult exam.
"If you really don't have one, I'll introduce you to one! My brother has a friend who is very handsome and has a good character, but his home is too far away from our school, I don't know what you are looking for? If you think it's good, I'll ask you, what do you think? Teacher Xu continued to frown and say.
"This ...... I haven't figured it out yet! Let's talk about it later! Sun Xiaohong prevaricated, so many people in the alley lined up to go to her house to introduce her to her, but she rejected them one by one. This is in school, Sun Xiaohong understands very well the exit she is facing, she is a new teacher, no one knows much, she wants to introduce herself to someone, she really can't believe it. But people kindly took care of her life events, and she was embarrassed to refuse, so she responded vaguely.
"What do you think about this, you're so old, what are you embarrassed to say. Just do it, don't pull it down! Teacher Xu stared at her, and she felt furious in her heart. She was most afraid that others would tell her about it, so she went to the classroom under the pretext of going to class, left Teacher Xu in a panic, and fled to the class.
She thought it would be all over the place. Unexpectedly, one weekend afternoon, Teacher Xu ran from the hurdle to her home on a bicycle with a big belly. When she found out where Xiaohong's family lived in the alley, she stood at the door and shouted, "Is this Sun Xiaohong's home?" Xiaohong went out to see that it was Teacher Xu calling her outside the door, and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard.
"Ah, it's Teacher Xu! Hurry up and sit down! Sun Xiaohong enthusiastically let her go to the yard.
"It's getting dark, so I won't go inside to do it. I'm here this time because I want to tell you something important, the person I introduced to me a few days ago is here, and now he's in my house. I want you to go to the house, how about it? Come with me, shall you? Teacher Xu looked at Sun Xiaohong and couldn't wait to take her away immediately.
Teacher Xu's sudden visit made Sun Xiaohong panic. It was getting dark and my mother wasn't at home. She stood at the door in a dilemma, so she said to Teacher Xu: "I can't just go with you, my mother is not at home, she just went out, I want to find her back, I want to talk to her, see what she thinks, and then talk!" ”
"Okay, then you can hurry up!" Teacher Xu wanted to promote something, but when she suddenly heard Xiaohong say this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her eyes. While they were talking, my mother walked out of the courtyard of the fourth aunt's house.
Reiko is pregnant, and she goes home like a mother to raise the baby. People are respectful, dogs bite ugly, and the people from left and right go to see her at home and send her favorite food.
Xiaohong's mother saw Xiaohong at the gate of the courtyard, talking to a strange woman, so she walked over, Xiaohong saw her mother coming, so she smiled and said to Teacher Xu: "Teacher Xu, introduce to you, this is my mother!" Mom, this is Teacher Xu, we are a group, she is here to introduce me to someone, she wants to hear your opinion! ”
"What are you doing standing outside the gate? Hurry up and get in, hurry up and get in! Teacher Xu let you bother. As long as both children agree, I, as a mother, don't have any opinions. Xiaohong's mother enthusiastically let her go into the yard.
"Auntie, you're too polite, I won't enter the house, there are other things at home. You see it's getting dark, so I'll make a long story short, I introduced Xiaohong to a partner a few days ago. He's coming over today, I want Xiaohong to come over and have a look, can you see it? Teacher Xu said observantly. She saw that the sky was slowly darkening, and her body was inconvenient, so she was very anxious. However, to promote this good thing, she was still patient and listened to Xiaohong's mother finish the words that should be instructed one by one.
"What's wrong with that! A daughter begged for a hundred families, as long as she was willing, her father and I had nothing to say, go, come back early! Although my mother said this, she was actually playing drums in her heart. It's not that she doesn't trust Teacher Xu, and now young people don't have a word for it, she was afraid that Xiaohong would not be assertive, so she nodded and agreed just after listening to what others said. If she can't find a good friend, she can't find a good partner for a lifetime, finding a partner is a big deal for a lifetime, and she doesn't want Xiaohong to have any mistakes in her marriage.
