8. Coming to the nostalgia (Monday for a Ha recommendation ticket)
The scenery on the top of the mountain is good, the view is good, Wang Yi saw the surrounding sea conditions and the barracks left by the troops.
The barracks are divided into two parts, the whole is arranged in a north-south direction, and the south side of the sea is the original dormitory for officers and soldiers, with a total of ten houses.
To the north are two houses, which are taller and larger, formerly office offices of the village committee.
The open area between the two is the original army training ground, which is also the playground of the school today, with a flagpole on it, and a five-star red flag hunting and flying in the sea breeze.
Wang Yi saluted at the red flag.
Wang Xianghong smiled when he saw this scene, and groped for a bag of cigarettes to light it.
He introduced: "Our primary school was established after the liberation, called the liberation of the children of the primary school, and later counted the village schools in the first century, and found that all the names of liberation and red stars were all there, so we were ordered to change the name." ”
"Our fishing family has no culture, so they are casually named Tianya Primary School, and this name has been passed down like this."
The primary school has no walls and no school gates, and ten houses are arranged in an orderly manner, six houses are classes, two houses are storehouses, and two houses are vacant.
Wang Yi looked closer and asked, "How many students are there on our island now?" ”
The house is familiar but simple, some of the windows are broken, and there is no glass on the island to make up for it, so it is topped with a paper shell.
So even if it's sunny and daylight, there is still a black hole in this room.
Wang Xianghong said: "There are a lot of students, they can fill in the first to fifth grades, and there can be 10 to 20 people in a class. In addition, there is an additional Yuhong class, and there are more people, so it's hard to say. ”
Wang Yi was speechless: "I don't think our village is too big, so many children?" ”
Wang Xianghong smiled bitterly: "The people on our island have liked a lot of people for generations, after all, no one knows when they go out to sea to fish, they will encounter three disasters and five disasters, so the family population is small, and it is easy to lose the household." ”
"In this way, in terms of family planning work, our Wangjia Village is very backward, and it has never been advanced, alas, the old and young masters still want to have more children."
Now the school has no teachers and is out of use, and the door is locked.
Wang Xianghong went to the village committee office to get the key to open it, and a neat but dilapidated classroom appeared in front of them.
The interior of the house is rolled up, with portraits of Marx, Lenin, Gorky and the chairman on the wall, a blackboard in the front and back, and desks in between.
What opened Wang Yi's eyes was that the desks here were made of bricks, with stone slabs plastered with cement surfaces, and the height and height were fixed.
There are no chairs.
Wang Xianghong introduced in time: "Our school is just such a condition, the desks were built for us before the army left, and the chairs were brought by the students from home. ”
Wang Yi looked at the dense table and said, "There are a lot of tables here." ”
Wang Xianghong said embarrassedly: "There are not so many teachers, so usually students have to study in the same class." ”
"The lower grades sit forward, the older grades sit back, the teacher gives a lecture to the lower grades first, and then asks them to write their homework after the lecture, and then lectures to the senior grades."
Wang Yi subconsciously shook his head.
The scenery of my hometown is very beautiful, but the conditions in terms of economy, education, medical care and other aspects are very backward!
This is not a dilemma unique to Tianya Island, it is the case in all villages on the outer islands.
Therefore, with the rapid development of the country's economy, these outer islands have been abandoned, and the villagers will move into the city if they have some conditions.
Wang Xianghong saw him shake his head, and his heart rose:
"Alas, Mr. Wang, if you think it's not easy to do, forget it, in the past few years, several teachers have been sent to us one after another, but they can't stand the loneliness and can't stand the difficult conditions."
"Speaking of which, there are no cinemas or parks here, I heard that there are children's palace dance halls or something in the city, how lively is that? Who can live here except for our own family who has lived for generations? ”
The words were sad.
After all, people have to recognize the reality.
Wang Yi comforted him and said, "I think we're very good here." ”
"During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the US imperialists had advanced weapons, artillery and tanks, and the chairman said that they had more steel and less gas, and our volunteer heroes had less steel and more gas."
"In the same way, our Tianya Island has fewer books and more gas, and the school conditions in the city are good, so there are more books and less gas!"
"Morale in the army is important, students' talent is important, and there is poetry and writing in the belly, we will definitely be able to run a good school that impresses the people in the city!"
What are you kidding, I am a good young man from the 21st century, I have 40 years of advantages in the times and resources, can't I run a village primary school?
No way!
Wang Xianghong was moved by these words, and he ate this!
As soon as Wang Yi was agitated, he pinched his waist with one hand and clenched his fist with the other and said, "Okay! Mr. Wang, you said it well! Comrade Chairman said that for the sake of sacrifice and ambition, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky! You have ambition, good, good! ”
The next step is to solve the accommodation problem.
Wang Yi pointed to the two warehouses near the sea in the southernmost part and said: "Just choose one for me, I live in the school, eat in the school, and I won't go anywhere if I don't run our Tianya Primary School well." ”
Wang Xianghong said emotionally: "Teacher Wang, you are a good son of the Wang family!" Alas, I was sorry for your father back then! I didn't expect you and your father not only to not hate our Wang family, but also to come back to serve their hometown! ”
Wang Yi looked at him in surprise.
Why did such a sentence come out of nowhere?
This seemed to involve some privacy, and after Wang Xianghong finished speaking, he hurriedly changed the topic: "You go and choose a warehouse, and I will find you a bed in the afternoon and someone to build a stove for you - no, you should eat or go down, go to me, my house is not short of a mouth." ”
Wang Yi shook his head and said, "Build me a stove, how to eat later, let's talk about it later, let's talk about the school first." ”
He's going to secretly open a small stove for himself.
On the way, Wang Xianghong introduced to him the education of the children of Tianya Island.
It's not optimistic!
At present, the state has not enshrined nine-year compulsory education as a national policy, has not promulgated the "Compulsory Education Law of the People's Republic of China", and has not even made a "Decision on the Reform of the Education System".
So now it's not illegal for children not to go to school.
In the past, there were teachers in Tianya Primary School, and people on the island sent their children to school: most of them did not come to learn knowledge, but to let teachers watch the children.
Since last year, the school has no teachers and is idle, so most of the children do not go to school, and only a few parents have the vision to insist on letting their children continue to study.
These children are unable to go to school on the island, so they have to go to the neighboring Splash Island.
This kind of distance is a problem, those who have relatives on Splash Island can stay at relatives' houses, but this is a condition only for individual families, and other children have to use a boat to pick them up every morning and evening.
Driving a boat to pick up students is not only tired but also dangerous, not afraid of capsizing, afraid of cold in winter and hot in summer, once the child is sick, it can be fatal!
So Wang Xianghong and the three of them were so excited when they found out that Wang Yi could be a teacher!
The two warehouses were opened, and Wang Yi chose the east one, with better light and more windows.
But it's all imagination.
The reality is that after opening it, it is full of tatters and debris, and when the wind blows the dust, it opens randomly, and the useful one is a bowl on the windowsill......
Wang Yi is sluggish: One bowl at the beginning, and the rest depends on recklessness?
At noon, the members went home for dinner, without Wang Xianghong's mobilization, and heard that Wang Xiangwen's son had come back and became a college student teacher, and suddenly someone came to him in an endless stream.
The big guys came to see the excitement at first, but when they learned that Wang Yi lived in the barracks on the mountain in order to run a school, they turned around and left.
Wang Yi was stunned by their reaction, Wang Xianghong was enthusiastic after listening to his words, why did the people in the village run away after hearing it?
The villagers who left came back quickly, and the fastest to come back was Wang Dongfeng, whom he had met yesterday.
The strong guy carried a bag, put it down after walking briskly, and said: "Teacher Wang, you can't live here without rations, my family has made some more cornmeal this spring, and I will send you twenty catties." ”
Wang Yi said: "Huh? No, no, it's a lot of food these days......"
Before he finished speaking, someone came again, with a small iron pot on his head: "Teacher Wang, my wife asked for a pot when she went back to her parents' house, just right, for you." ”
Wang Dongfeng said with a smile: "He, Brother Rong, you are willing to do it, this iron pot was bought by your eldest brother with industrial vouchers, and your wife finally got it back." ”
Wang Dongrong said: "It was my wife who asked me to send it to Mr. Wang, and the second and third babies will come to study with Mr. Wang in the future." ”
The school began to be full of people again.
This time, none of them came empty-handed, some sent a clean sheet, some sent an old mosquito net, and some sent a bowl and chopsticks.
Some people took a handful of eggs, some people held a jar of lard, some people carried a string of salted fish, and some wrapped a handful of salt in newspaper.
Wang Yiquan couldn't look at these things, and what he gave Xiufang last night was an eight-piece kitchen suit.
But he inherited a heavy friendship in his heart.
You must know that for the people in the village who are short of living materials, what they send is treasure.
The person who delivers the eggs himself is reluctant to eat eggs on weekdays, and this handful of eggs may have been saved for several days and ready to go to the township for some spare money to subsidize the family.
The people who deliver the lard may not see the oil star in their own dishes all day long.
Salted fish - well, there is no shortage of them on this island.
No matter what he sends, Wang Yi has to admit it.
This was the highest courtesy of his people as a teacher.
Wang Yi accepted these things and sighed secretly in his heart, this school must be run well, and he must teach the children sent well.
Favors are over the mountain!
Wang Xianghong brought him a set of covers and pans, and said, "Teacher Wang, you are messy here, and it is not easy to clean it up, so I will allocate another labor for you." ”
"Let the big confusion come, the big confusion is the most capable of doing chores and dirty work." Liu Hongmei, the women's director, came with a burden.
There is a bucket at each end of the burden, which is full of water.
Xiufang also came, bringing the eight-piece kitchen set to return to him, and said: "I haven't seen you for half a day, I can't call your brother to call you Teacher Wang?" ”
Wang Yi said embarrassedly: "What Mr. Wang?" You have to call me - Principal Wang, this school is just one of my own faculty members, there are no tigers on the mountain, and the monkey is the king! ”
This bend has no technical content, but it is a big bend for this era, and everyone reacted and laughed, saying that he was really joking.
Wang Yi also smiled, full of sighs: What a simple and simple era!
However, he firmly rejected the eight-piece kitchen set given by Xiufang: "The water that was spilled by the gift sent out, don't you want me to talk to a man and count?" ”
Xiufang still wanted to push, Wang Xianghong habitually waved his hand and said: "Xiufang, you accept it, this is Teacher Wang's heart, in this way, let's send the bed at home to Teacher Wang again." ”
"And the doors and windows of Mr. Wang's room also have to be repaired, the glass is not easy to repair, there are no glass tickets in our village, let's repair the cracks in the doors and windows first?" Wang Dongxi said.
Wang Yi was surprised: "It's all 1982, do you still use a ticket to buy glass?" ”
Wang Dongxi said: "It seems that you can buy it without a ticket, but those who have tickets are given priority, and those who don't have tickets have to spend more money, right?" ”
Xiufang said: "Don't worry about the glass, we happen to have some old fish gelatin at home, I'll bring them to Mr. Wang, fish gelatin mixed with wood chips can best repair doors and windows." ”
As soon as you say a word, you will first make the framework of the teacher's dormitory clear.
Wang Yi didn't need to bother much.
He gradually understood Wang Xianghong's insistence on over-grouping.
Like Wangjia Village, a collective on a closed island, as long as the family is not separated, the big guy's heart is in one place, and everyone is concerned about everything.
In the same way, things have to be looked at dialectically, and there are some things that everyone just doesn't pay attention to......
