At around eight o'clock, students came to school one after another, carrying school bags and singing the songs that Teacher Li taught them to sing.

"When the sun shines in the sky, the flowers smile at me.

Little Bird said early, why did you carry a small school bag?

I go to school,

Don't be late every day,

Love to learn and love to work,

When you grow up, you must make meritorious contributions to the people.

……”

Jiang Xiaobai and her daughter stood on the hill, watching these children go to school from a distance, listening to the "School Song".

This song, which has been popular since the fifties and sixties, also accompanied his childhood, and the simple and cheerful tune easily evoked his memories.

He seemed to see himself carrying a schoolbag when he was a child, jumping to school in the morning sun.

"Baba, do these brothers and sisters sing songs to school every day?" Jiang Shan asked.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Yes, you see how happy they are when they go to school!" ”

Jiang Shan said: "I used to think that going to school was a painful thing, but I didn't expect it to be happy, and suddenly I really wanted to sing songs to school every day." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Of course, going to school is a happy thing, because going to school is the first step for a person to walk out of the family and integrate into the collective, people only have family affection in the family relationship circle, and in school, in addition to learning knowledge and exercising ability, people also have communication, and have other relationships besides relatives, such as teachers, classmates and friends." ”

Jiang Shan looked at the children who entered the school, and her little face was full of yearning.

It didn't take long for more than 30 students from all over the school to arrive.

The old headmaster walked to the edge of the stairs outside his office, where a hanging bell hung there, and he picked up a small hammer and struck it.

"Dang, dang, dangdang......"

The sound sounded, and all the children walked out of the classroom, and they arrived at Xiaochangba, where they stood neatly in front of the flagpole.

The old headmaster slowly walked to the flagpole, his gaze sweeping over the faces of all the students.

"Students, the flag-raising ceremony begins!"

From Monday to Saturday, as long as it is not raining, the teachers and students of this elementary school insist on holding a national flag-raising ceremony every morning.

As the old principal's voice fell, the three classmates stepped out of the office, a boy in the middle carried the national flag, a girl next to him, and a boy formed a flag team, and the three walked to the flagpole with firm steps.

"The flag-raising ceremony begins!"

"Salute the flag and sing the national anthem!"

As the old principal's old voice came out, the bright five-star red flag slowly rose, the students with red scarves fluttering on their chests raised their hands and saluted, and the remaining students saluted, and everyone sang sonorously.

"Arise, ...... you who do not want to be slaves"

Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Shan also stood solemnly and sang along: "Build our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall......"

After a song, bright red flags fluttered high on the flagpole.

"After the ceremony, let's make a speech under the national flag, and I invite He Miaomiao to speak."

A ten-year-old girl walked out of the line, turned around after reaching the national flag, first stood up and saluted all her classmates, then took out a piece of paper and read it aloud.

"Today, my speech is "Remembering Our Beloved Teacher Li"

"A few days ago, Teacher Li was teaching us in the classroom, and she was leading us to read the text, but suddenly collapsed on the podium."

“……”

"Teacher Li is gone, leaving us forever, but her voice and smile will always remain in our hearts."

"We will always miss our beloved Teacher Li!"

He Miaomiao finished reading the manuscript in her hand, and she was already in tears, and all the students below also applauded while crying.

He Miaomiao put away the speech and said loudly: "Let's sing another song to Mr. Li!" ”

After speaking, she raised her head: "The stars are shining in the quiet late night, ready to sing!" ”

"The stars are shining in the quiet of the night

The teacher's room was bright all night,

Whenever I walk gently past your window,

Bright lights illuminated my heart.

Yes...... Whenever I think of you,

Dear good teacher,

A warm current stirred in my heart.

……”

A gardener's song, the students sang it affectionately, and He Miaomiao returned to the team.

The old headmaster stood under the flagpole, his figure a little rickety.

But in Jiang Xiaobai's eyes, the old principal was as tall as a flagpole.

It was he who held up the whole school with his stump.

The old principal looked at these children affectionately and said, "Students, the teacher has good news for you today, soon, Shanhua Primary School will build a new school, and you can sit in the spacious and bright classroom to read and study like the students in the city." ”

All the students looked at the old headmaster in disbelief.

One student said, "Teacher Zhang, is what you said true?" ”

The old principal nodded solemnly: "What I said is true, one of Mr. Li's classmates donated a new school to our Shanhua Village!" ”

The more than thirty children in the field dam immediately boiled.

"It's great that Mr. Li's classmates donated to the new school!"

"The headmaster won't lie to us!"

"I'm looking forward to what the new school will look like!"

"It's a pity that Mr. Li can't see it!"

“……”

He Miaomiao, who spoke under the national flag before, was not in a high mood, and said loudly: "Teacher Zhang, Teacher Li are gone, and you are the only teacher in our school, what is the use of building a new school?" ”

Her words were like a scoop of cold water, which suddenly extinguished the enthusiasm of those students who were full of expectations before.

"yes, what's the use of having a school without a teacher?"

"My dad said that Mr. Zhang's health is not good, and he can't exhaust Mr. Zhang anymore, and he plans to let me drop out of school."

"I want to quit school too!"

“……”

The old principal listened to the children's words, his heart was mixed, he raised his eyes to look at the location of Jiang Xiaobai on the hill, his heart became firm, and he said loudly: "Students, if a teacher Li is gone, thousands of teachers will come!" ”

"In the future, we will not only have new classrooms, but also new desks, new playgrounds, libraries, and many teachers...... Until 6th Grade......"

The old principal's words made the whole yard quiet all of a sudden.

All the children looked at the old principal.

They wish the old headmaster was telling the truth!

The old principal said: "Students, what the teacher said is true, the caring person who donated to the new school is called Jiang Xiaobai, he is your classmate of Teacher Li, you can also call him Teacher Jiang."

He came to visit Mr. Li this time and brought a lot of books to the students, including your favorite villain book, you can go to the office to read it after class. ”

"Also, at noon today, Mr. Jiang personally cooked, and he said that you are invited to eat hot pot!"

The old principal's words were like sprinkling a large handful of salt in a pan of oil, and immediately there was a violent reaction, and all the students in the dam were boiling.

"Teacher Jiang!"

"Teacher Jiang!"

“……”

Every child cheered.
