Chapter VII
The next morning, at about seven o'clock, I don't know whose alarm clock screamed like a spirit, Zou Shun and they woke up suddenly, looked at their watches, it was seven o'clock, the four freshmen immediately jumped out of bed, rummaged everywhere for their pants and shoes, provoked the Shang Hu in the quilt to roar: "Be quiet!" Zou Shun and they were silent, quickly soaked in urine, rinsed their mouths, and washed their faces, although it was very fast, but the bathroom was small, and it was still a waste of time for four people to squeeze into a bathroom to wash.
As soon as they finished tidying up, they ran towards the school, fortunately the classroom was not far away, Zou Shun and they ran over it only took three minutes, they just sat down, they heard the preparatory bell, after the preparatory bell rang, there were still three minutes before the class, Zou Shun felt that this bell was very characteristic - the bell was very long, first a bell and drum, and then a female recording, after many years, Zou Shun still vaguely remembered the recording that accompanied him for three years: Dear students, class time has arrived...... Dearstudents,it’stimeforclass…… If you want to ask why he remembers this recording so well, it is probably because he often recounts it silently while running wildly, as if this will prolong the ringtone, and sometimes he even needs it to make an alarm clock for him, it was really a gray day.
At 7:20 in the morning, Zou Shun and the others just sat down and opened the book, and the class bell began to ring. Except for a few people who want to read, most of the other students are talking and laughing with their classmates before and after, and there is a commotion in the classroom, and the teacher is delayed for some reason, and Zou Shun naturally will not let go of this opportunity to chat with the classmates around him.
The layout of the classroom is the same as most classrooms, with four desks in a row, and the two tables in the middle are closed, forming a passage with the two tables on both sides, and Zou Shun sits in the middle of the middle table, that is to say, only Feng Zongwei is sitting next to him, although the other side is an adjacent table, but it is also next to each other, the owner of the table is two girls, and the girl next to Zou Shun has long hair, a clean smile, an outgoing personality, and is good at talking. will know that in fact, this girl is the literary and artistic committee member of the class, named Fang Min.
In fact, it is not so much the selection of class cadres as the appointment of class cadres, because some of the main class cadres have long been appointed by the class teacher, of course, the class teacher is basically the students of the central school, according to her, she also went to consult the primary school class teacher of these students, but these words can never eliminate the pimple in Zou Shun's heart, but on the other hand, what does it matter? If you are not a class cadre, you won't die, and the funny thing is that Zou Shun is also one of the people who have been appointed, although he is only a representative of the mathematics class.
But the young and vigorous Zou Shun was very unhappy, first of all, the question of the same table gave him an opinion on this class teacher, and now he came to appoint the class cadres, so when he heard that he was appointed, he stood up on the spot and said that he did not want to be the representative of this class, of course, the opposition was invalid.
Regarding Zou Shun's opposition motives, when he looked at this issue from the perspective of an adult, he didn't know whether he was unhappy with the teacher and her behavior at that time, or whether he wanted to reflect his difference and grandstand, or felt that he was the second in the class but got such a position, and felt that it was overkill. But what does it matter about all this, anyway, the stories in youth often have no reason.
And the other owner of the adjacent table wore a braid that was neither long nor short, and his hair was shoulder-length, named Zhang Huiyin, Zou Shun saw her for the first time, only to see freckles on his face, and frowned slightly.
In fact, this conversation was dominated by Feng Zongwei and Fang Min, and Zou Shun was very embarrassed to be sandwiched between them, and he almost wanted to change positions with Feng Zongwei. Although he and Zhang Huiyin occasionally interjected, they always felt excluded from them, so they had to smile helplessly.
The first class is Chinese, and the Chinese teacher is the head teacher Lin Yujun, of course, the head teacher often plays the role of a political teacher, and Lin Yujun is not surprised. Today is the first day of formal classes, Zou Shun listened very attentively, it should be said that the most memorable part of a semester should be the first class. Many years later, Zou Shun seems to still remember that class, the first text is Wang Jiaxin's "On the Other Side of the Mountain", Zou Shun first came into contact with this text, and did not feel anything special, but there is a picture deeply engraved in Zou Shun's mind, that is, "When I was a child, I often crouched in the window and thought-" This picture has been fixed in Zou Shun's mind, becoming a sign of sentimentality in his impression, even if it has nothing to do with the theme of the text.
The next English class is Zou Shun's most painful, the teacher's name is Li Yue, she is good-looking, young and vibrant, it is said that she is a college student who has just graduated from the Northeast for a few years, speaks very fluent Mandarin, and Zou Shun's previous teacher has a sharp contrast, but all this does not make Zou Shun like her as soon as they meet, because she teaches English - a subject that Zou Shun is most afraid of.
In the first class, Zou Shun was embarrassed in her class. After she introduced herself, she naturally couldn't help but know a few new classmates, and her way of meeting new classmates was also quite special, and she asked people directly: "What'syourname?" The first few classmates naturally passed, and occasionally chatted with each other, Zou Shun looked at her route, and a strong premonition reminded him that it was time to prepare, so he immediately asked Feng Zongwei: "What is she talking about?" Feng Zongwei seemed a little afraid of his lame pronunciation, and said embarrassedly, "I don't know either." ”
Sure enough, Teacher Li Yue walked next to Feng Zongwei and asked Zou Shun, Zou Shun stood up, held back for a long time, and said, "Teacher, I don't know." Li Yue seemed a little annoyed and said, "You don't know, then why didn't you listen to the other students' answers just now?" ”
Zou Shun scolded secretly in his heart, and said angrily in his heart: If I can understand them, won't I be able to? Li Yue didn't ask Zou Shun to sit down, but went straight to another person, asked the same question, listened to the answer, was satisfied, and turned to ask Zou Shun: "Have you learned now?" ”
Zou Shun had to say something, Li Yue couldn't, so he took him to read it twice, and Zou Shun's lame pronunciation naturally caused everyone to laugh, in fact, he didn't have much of an accent, but now he was nervous, and the sound sounded even more ridiculous. With Zou Shun's current ideological realm, when he heard this laughter, he had to scold in his heart, of course, he didn't know who he was scolding, a few years later, Zou Shun read a lot of books, and he would only gently raise the corners of his mouth to treat this kind of ridicule, because he knew at that time: Only those who are fragile in their hearts will make fun of others to enhance their self-confidence, and the real strong will only encourage the mistakes of others. Of course, if the person who made fun of it was not malicious, Zou Shun would still be happy to provide such jokes for others.
After this class, for a long time, Zou Shun had an indescribable dislike for Li Yue. Obviously it wasn't his fault, but he had to take responsibility for himself, the more Zou Shun thought about it, the more angry he became, so he had to transfer this hatred to Li Yue.
Among all the teachers, Zou Shun's favorite is the math teacher Wen Yiheng, and interestingly, he is also the husband of the homeroom teacher Lin Yujun. He can be regarded as an all-rounder, not only can teach mathematics, but also teach Zou Shun their history, in the second grade, for some reasons, he also took geography over, it is said that he still teaches while learning, although the knowledge of junior high school is relatively simple, but at that time, the impact on Zou Shun and them is not small.
But the reason why Zou Shun likes him the most is not here, but because of his bearing and philosophical thinking, he has a kind of demeanor, like a hermit born and does not compete with others, he will often instill a lot of ideological essence into Zou Shun, and this is Zou Shun They can't learn in the classroom, or can't find it in the textbook, his classic remarks, again and again inspired Zou Shun to move forward, although after many years, Zou Shun almost forgot all about those remarks, but Zou Shun believes that most of those essences are absorbed and digested by him, integrated into their own world view, outlook on life and values.
In addition, Mr. Wen Yiheng is still a good man at home, at home, many times he goes to cook and do housework, of course, this is not to say that Lin Yujun is very strong, but just to show that their family is indeed harmonious and happy.
In addition to the five subjects taught by the above three teachers, Zou Shun also studied biology and geography. Biology teacher Zhu Shengnan is also a legend, and even though she was later mentioned to the county to take up a post, her story is still circulating. She is not praised for the quality of her teaching (although the quality of her teaching is indeed very good), but her prestige among the students, it is said that once a group of boys gathered in the toilet to fight, Zhu Shengnan heard about it, casually picked up a wooden stick, rushed into the men's toilet, and began to crack when he saw the students fighting, since then her prestige among the students has been established, and many school tyrants dare not provoke her.
But on the other hand, she is a teacher who cares for her students and is close to them with jokes. Zou Shun still remembers that a year ago, it was a winter, he went with his cousin to get the notice, and when they were about to leave, he heard a student greet Zhu Shengnan, maybe they usually have a good relationship, Zhu Shengnan asked: "Did you kill pigs at home?" The student replied in the affirmative, and Zhu Shengnan said: "Go home and eat more quack and gain weight." ”
In the Sichuan dialect, gaga means meat. The atmosphere of their conversation was very relaxed, not at all like the traditional teacher-student relationship that Zou Shun thought, which was the first lesson Zou Shun learned on the junior high school campus before he entered junior high school. Generally speaking, most people in life are just passing by their side, and there are very few who can leave an impression, and there are even fewer who can intersect, and Zou Shun and Zhu Shengnan, because of a sentence Zou Shun left a deep impression on her, and after the start of school, because Zhu Shengnan teacher just sent away the graduates, and Zou Shun just rose up, just met Zhu Shengnan, everything is so coincidental.
As for the geography teacher Jiang Ao, and Zou Shun are a pair of enemies, their stories will be told slowly later, and I will not repeat them here.
Everything in the new school is new to Zou Shun, the new teachers, each with their own characteristics, erudite and knowledgeable; New classmates, versatile, easy to talk and laugh; A new subject, difficult and profoundly interesting. In such an environment, Zou Shun invisibly felt a pressure, and it was really difficult to predict whether the halo he had worn since he was a child would be taken off at this stage.
Zou Shun thought that the primary school in his village was one of the two most backward village primary schools in the town, and looked at his classmates, talking eloquently and calmly in class, not at all as panicked as Zou Shun. Zou Shun thought of the outstanding seniors in the village primary school, they were also extremely good in the primary school, and the best of them could even get the first place in the town in the junior high school examination, but even such an excellent student, when he arrived in middle school, he never heard of his achievements. Perhaps this is the gap between the students of the central school and the students of the village primary school, although the students of the village primary school can occasionally outperform each other for a while, but they have a better educational background and better educational resources, and this is not something that can be caught up overnight, just like what Zou Shun feels now, his classmates all seem to have excellent eloquence, and this is Zou Shun's trouble.
And the clothes worn by the classmates are also very bright, and the cold Zou Shun has a sharp contrast, many times, just looking at a person's clothes, you can see whether this person is from the village primary school or the central school, although it may not be completely accurate, but at least you can guess most of the students. If you match his demeanor, you can guess eight or nine. Most of the students from the village primary school have low self-esteem and timidity, Zou Shun in the second grade, he once saw one of his younger brothers, when he went up the stairs and passed by them, the timid eyes Zou Shun can not forget for the rest of his life, and he still used his back against the wall, and touched the stairs on the wall with both hands to go up, or that was not walking at all, but moving. The students of the central school are full of confidence, and most of their demeanor and demeanor are calm, and they can even be said to be a little arrogant, some contemptuous, and some disdainful.
In this way, Zou Shun began his new life with his endless novelty and longing, panic and worry.
