Chapter Ninety-Three: A Little Storm
After the recitation, the two teams of foreign children appeared as Liu Ling's team. Due to the large number of people, it took a lot of effort for Nizi to arrange the team neatly. Like the first two teams, shake your little head in the wind:
north wind
The north wind is cool, and the rain and snow are cold. Hui and good me, hand in hand.
Is it false? It's urgent!
The north wind is blowing, and the rain and snow are falling. Benefit and good me, hand in hand.
Is it false? It's urgent!
Mo ** fox, Mo black bandit. Hui and good me, hand in hand with the car.
Is it false? It's urgent! ”
At the beginning, Liu Ling could calmly listen to the recitations of the Jones team and the Ganedoo team, which are ancient Greek and Roman poems, "Boat, the waves push you to the sea again" and "I have erected a monument".
When she was teaching, she had heard it, and at that time, she also felt refreshed by the simple and straightforward verses, which were sung in Greek and Roman, and were full of catchiness and charm.
But when she heard her disciple singing "North Wind", her face suddenly turned pale, and she didn't say hello to anyone, so she left the scene angrily.
Of course, Liu Chang knew the reason, and immediately beckoned Jones, Ganidoo and Maria to take care of all the children, and then hurriedly chased Liu Ling.
"Liu Chang, did you mean it, what do you mean" Looking at the nephew who was following her, Liu Ling was angry.
"Auntie, you really wronged me this time, I really didn't mean to" Liu Chang stood beside him pitifully, full of pity:
"I complain about Nizi, this dead girl, I'll let her do some shows to liven up the atmosphere. She's fine, she doesn't care about my feelings, she knows I don't understand those humming foreign songs. "Nizi, don't blame the master, what is the disciple for? The disciple is used to block the thunder.
"You don't use Nizi as a shield, it's all a good thing you did!"
"You can see that!? My aunt is amazing. ”
"You're just trying to me off, aren't you?"
"How can it be, your guess is absolutely wrong. I can't make my aunt angry to death, you shouldn't be angry with me. ”
"You dead boy, you say, who should I be angry with!" Liu Ling's eyes turned red all of a sudden: "You white-eyed wolf!" ”
"You deserve to be by my son, that's his life."
Liu Ling sneered and was amused: "You can be angry with me"
"Look, I'm right, it's still the kind that is willingly."
Although the tears of the "young poor mouth" are still hanging in the corners of his eyes, the anger has disappeared significantly:
"Anyway, you can't exclude Chinese from the syllabus, even if there is only one student, you have to teach it," Liu Ling said.
She is not an unreasonable woman, Chinese characters and pinyin are good and bad in practice, and Chinese characters are difficult to write, remember, and understand. One word with multiple meanings, or multiple words to agree, not to mention foreigners, even you may not be able to understand them.
"How can it" Liu Chang also had a serious face, not like the hippie smile just now:
"Even in the future, in another world, the languages we speak now may disappear, because they are just tools for communication, and when they come across more convenient tools, they will be replaced.
But Chinese characters don't, Chinese characters, Chinese have their own unique charm and beauty, and they will be handed down in a higher form: "art"!
In the future, even permanently, people will be proud to have mastered this art. ”
"Fight with one punch, lest a hundred punches come" Looking at his aunt's disappearing figure, Liu Chang muttered to himself: "Since it starts with the text, let's end it from the text." ”
The next day, it was the day of the outing, all the children were very excited, usually, they could only stay in the base, especially the early students, after the novelty slowly disappeared, they were more yearning for the blue sky and white clouds outside.
"Senior Sister Nizi" Nizi is not the oldest, but she is the earliest to get started and is the master sister who is the best. Hearing someone calling her behind her, she stopped and turned around, and saw several junior brothers and sisters chasing after her from behind.
"What are you doing" looked at these junior disciples who were a head taller than themselves, carrying big bags and small bags on their backs, and smiled. This is the benefit of being a senior sister, you don't have to bring things in person when you go out, and you have your own capable people to do their work. Just put your hands behind your back and take a square step, just like the master!
"Senior sister, senior sister, go and take a look, those newcomers are always crying, they want to go home, they don't get up, they don't wash their faces, they don't work, they are annoyed."
"Won't you pull them up?"
"I can't pull it, and I still bite people"
"It's all going to be assembled, and the master knows that he will be unhappy. Let's go, let's see! If you don't obey again, you will be beaten. "Majestic senior sister, call the shots.
"Senior sister, the master said that you must convince people with reason, and you are not allowed to beat people."
"Did I say hit someone? We can't hit people, just beat them. That's how my master is reasonable. "The predecessor's lack of heart is now in the hands of Nizi, this second son, the predecessor's lack of heart and eyes are not less bad things about Liu Chang behind his back, and he still has a picture and the truth.
"Okay, listen to Senior Sister." Listening to the senior sister explain the difference between beating and beating, these big children suddenly realized that the senior sister is the senior sister, and the understanding is high! Hitting people is bad and uncivilized; Beating, a form of reasoning, is very civilized.
Two of them glanced at Nizi from the corner of their eyes: When will you reason with the senior sister? Suddenly I felt cold, forget it, his backstage is a bald baby monster.
"A few of you" A few minions kicked open the door, and the senior sister walked in with her hands behind her back:
"I'll count to three, and if I don't get up, I'll beat me!" The senior sister has a hot temper, and her words are simple and rude.
"I'm going home"
"One" Senior Sister held up a finger.
"I want Mom"
"Two" Senior Sister raised her second finger.
"We ... Get up. Seeing that the third finger of the senior sister was about to stand up, the five who were still whining on the bed, some big and some small, immediately stopped crying and got up numbly.
This battle is too scary, the mother is not around, and the child does not suffer the immediate loss.
looked at the obedient and obedient people, hurriedly dressing up, and some even wore their clothes backwards. The few minions who followed up were like surging rivers in their worship of the senior sister, and they had scared them just now, so why didn't it work? What they don't notice is that when they scare, there is no one behind them; When the senior sister spoke, there was a group of people behind her who were dancing with teeth and claws.
Nizi took a group of minions, and after going around the various bedrooms, let those who were still calling for their mothers in bed, after seeing animals more terrible than their mothers, all the beds were empty.
Breakfast was plentiful, with Chinese food and western food. Of course, it wasn't done by people, it was done by machines. In the past, Liu Chang and his family had never used the catering system, mainly because there were few people, and they had nothing to do, so they did it themselves. There is also the reason why the taste of the machine is the same, it is better to do it yourself, and eat as you like. Not anymore, there are more people, and their time does not allow them to spend too much energy on food, which is why the catering system is activated.
The original outing was an outing, an outing, a suburban tour, walking around the base, yesterday, after solving the problem of his aunt and them, Liu Chang was in a very comfortable mood, and temporarily decided to take a global day trip, one day is not enough for two days.
The four class teachers saw that the problem was solved, and did not raise any objections.
Hearing this news, the happiest belonged to those children, who had never sat in a flying machine except when they picked them up. Moreover, for the first time, when I saw something strange, I was afraid of the majority, and I didn't even notice that I was flying. When I heard some bold descriptions, I only saw birds flying, but I didn't expect that I could fly, and I didn't even think about it, and I regretted it one by one.
Today, when it was announced that they could fly again, those who were originally homesick and missed their mothers had forgotten where their homes were and who their mothers were, and their excitement was indescribable.
Some of them also held Senior Sister's hand, jumping with excitement, asking where that thing was, why didn't they come, and even forgot that Senior Sister was going to beat them this morning.
When the aircraft slowly descended, they were not terrified when they first saw it, but excited, holding each other and screaming at their feet. Before the round aircraft stopped and the hatch was opened, some little guys rushed forward, causing the four head teachers to shout and shout, and they were busy for a while.
The hanging ladder was finally put down, very narrow, only allowing one person to pass, of course, the child could walk two people side by side, although there were four class teachers to maintain, the formation was still chaotic, and some people were crowded in a heap, stuck on the ladder.
This is a sightseeing aircraft, the surrounding portholes can be opened, can accommodate more than 200 people, the first thing each child rushes up is to occupy the favorable terrain--- occupy the portholes, those smaller ones stand behind, do not do anything in a hurry, who calls themselves small, can not rob others.
This group of little guys are all thousands of choices, all of them are not big, and their intelligence is extraordinary, and it is definitely useless to know that crying. Look over there, there is a little guy who took out "gold does not change".
"Behold, behold, the mountains have become smaller, and the mountains have become smaller"
"The cloud, it's the cloud, we're really flying"
"Fly so high" The excited voice echoed throughout the cabin.
"Master" Nizi left the porthole and came to Liu Chang, as if she was not very interested.
"What's wrong, isn't it dizzy?" Before Liu Chang could speak, Liu Ling pulled Nizi into her arms and asked with concern.
"It's not..."
"Sick?" Liu Ling became even more nervous, reached out and touched Nizi's forehead, and then compared it with the temperature of her forehead: "I don't have a fever, tell my aunt and ancestor quickly, where are you uncomfortable." Or? Let's go back quickly" Liu Ling turned her head to look at Liu Chang, and the second half of the sentence was said to Liu Chang.
"Okay," Liu Chang also happily agreed. I got up and prepared to control the aircraft and go back.
"No, Master, I'm not sick." Nizi grabbed Liu Chang's sleeve, and then said with a slightly twisted expression: "I miss my mother." ”
It has been more than three years since I came here, although I have a stronger memory than ordinary people, after all, it has been three years, and my mother is a little vague in my heart, but this ambiguity is not forgetting, usually, in the middle of the night, I often wake up crying because of my thoughts, but the master and grandmother are very busy, and I don't dare to tell Liu Chang or Liu Ling.
Today, the cries of several little brothers and sisters reminded her of her mother.
"Missed Mom?" Liu Chang looked at his beloved apprentice with a smile, and he also blamed himself in his heart, those fatherless orphans and slave children are better, in order to survive, some of them will be sold at a very young age, and the family affection is very weak.
But there are also some commoners or even children of well-off families, who are recruited in the name of Guiguzi, which can be said to be cheated, and some can even be said to be robbed.
"Hmm" Niko snorted, constantly wrapping her hands around her hair, feeling a little apprehensive.
"You go play with them for a while, and I'll discuss it with your masters" Sending Nizi away, Liu Chang looked around and looked at Liu Ling and the four of them:
"You should have something similar there, right?"
"Yes, especially those who have just arrived, more or less a little, after all, most of them have never left their parents." Mary affirmed.
Jones said, "I didn't pay much attention, kid, it's normal, and you'll be fine in a few days." ”
Ganidoo didn't speak.
"Have you ever thought about home, why have you never heard that you are homesick?" Liu Chang squinted his eyes, very ridiculous.
"Our home, decades ago, didn't exist, maybe there were brothers and sisters and their descendants, but when our parents weren't there, it wasn't home anymore. Siblings and the children of siblings are, to me, just relatives. "Aunt Gannidu is an aunt, and she speaks philosophically.
"How can you have a family" Liu Ling's faint voice came from the side: "In troubled times, it will be dispersed when it is said"
Liu Chang said: "Doesn't my aunt want to go to see Xi'er? ”
Liu Ling said: "If you don't watch it, what can you do if you see it, but it will only increase sentimentality." ”
"If you can arrange for those homesick children to come home and see, let's arrange it. In this world, it is not easy to have a home. It's even rarer to have family affection. Don't let them have regrets. It was Maria's voice, and she was still looking at the white clouds outside the porthole, and she didn't even look back, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Those dozen or so Hun girls are really special, they never said they were homesick, and they didn't see that they were homesick." This is what Liu Ling, as the head teacher, discovered.
"The family concept of the Huns is not as strong as that of your Han people. Wherever they go, they are home, and their ability to survive is the strongest in the world. "When there was a blizzard, I saw with my own eyes that they were more concerned about their cattle and sheep, and let their wives and children shiver in the snow. Don't be so surprised, this is what I saw with my own eyes, the family drove the cattle and sheep into the tent, while his wife and children were driven out of the tent, and the cattle and sheep were their lifeblood. He knew that with cattle and sheep, he would still have a wife and children, and without cattle and sheep, he would have nothing, including himself.
You think that the party who is driven out will definitely have resentment, wrong, they have no complaints, even willingly, they know that the snowstorm may freeze them to death, but without cattle and sheep, they will definitely die, starve to death! ”
"It's been three or four years, even if they want to go back, I don't know if their home is still there. Don't think about your Xiongnu female disciples, their homes don't know where to go for a long time. "Liu Ling knows too well the situation of her one-acre and three-point land, although the current emperor is resting with the people and there is no war, but in many places, the migration of the people is still serious.
"Do your best, let it be safe" For the word home, Liu Chang's feelings are very profound, a happy home, now he is alone, father, mother, brother, sister, sister-in-law, almost overnight.
The topic became heavier and heavier, and finally they all fell silent.
"I think so, bring together the parents of the children who can be found, anyway, we will leave for decades, these decades, we don't have to run around anymore, we can also help them as much as possible, and after a few decades, these children can also support their parents and do their filial piety." Liu Chang is the best able to understand the pain of his son wanting to raise but his relatives are not there, and he first broke the silence.
"You don't have to get them all together, after all, the East and the West are different in terms of living habits and cultural habits, and if you force them together, you will be in trouble." ”
"What trouble can there be. I think it's better to get a piece, how lively it is. simply occupy a hill, and those who are willing to farm the land; He who is willing to herd sheep herds; He who is willing to fish fishes. If you don't want to do anything, just find a place to lie down, and we're not short of money anyway. ”
"If you don't have bad money, you can't raise them as pigs, but if they are pigs. Besides, your family fishes in the mountains. ”
"If it were me, I would occupy a hill and raise not only pigs, but also cows, sheep and chickens. Eat eggs and drink milk every day to ensure that you are raised for nothing. Jones fantasized about his retirement, and his eyes were full of yearning.
Gannidu smiled and said, "I guess, your wish will definitely be frustrated?" ”
Jones asked, "Why?" ”
Gannidu said, "What do you say? Hahaha! He burst out laughing.
When the others saw that Jones had not yet understood, they also laughed, and the children who were still watching the strange were alarmed, and they all looked over, wondering what happened to their masters, and why they were so happy.
