The next day, Donglai was confused and transferred to the second class of the fourth grade of Xiguan Primary School in the county. At that time, the school was criticizing the "theory of education ** reduction". The walls of the school and the walls of the classrooms are plastered with big-character posters.

The head teacher of Donglai's class is also a Chinese teacher, surnamed Zhang. Lean-looking, small-eyed, bald. He is very strict with his students, but he is very kind to Donglai, a "transfer student".

Once, in a Chinese class, the class teacher read a text, the main content of which was a "good student" who applied the knowledge he learned to life. The class teacher asked the students to answer what is the central idea of this passage through this passage? As a result, the class fell silent.

The head teacher was anxious: "This is not clear!" Isn't there any of you who answered? ”

Donglai raised his hand without fear, then stood up and replied loudly: "Explain the importance of linking theory with practice!" ”

"That's right!" The head teacher excitedly slapped the table on the podium. Probably because of the force, several pieces of chalk on the table rolled to the ground.

Since then, Donglai has become the "key development object" of the class teacher; At the same time, it also attracted the jealousy of some classmates. They laughed at the tongues in which Donglai spoke; What's more, several classmates teamed up to bully him on the way from school in Donglai. At that time, Donglai was still in the dark, and later I learned that the head teacher was biased towards the "children of workers", which made these peasant children who originally had a sense of "local" superiority particularly jealous.

Of course, what made them jealous was that he always answered questions quickly in class and that his essays were often circulated as model essays by the class teacher.

During this year, Donglai lived in the dormitory of his father's unit. The father is very concerned about his son's learning---- transferring his son from Hongxinghe Primary School to Xiguan Primary School in the county shows this. Every night, in addition to personally tutoring his son's homework, the father also taught his son to write calligraphy, taught him how to hold a pen, and how to write a "foot cutter" for a word; Teach him to recite abacus mantras, such as "two one adds five, every two into one"; Teach him to read more books and newspapers。。。。。。 This played an important role in his all-round development.

During his year in Xiguan Elementary School, Donglai's biggest gain was that he discovered a "new world" in his father's dormitory: there was a locked hut in this room. By chance, driven by curiosity, Donglai climbed up to the small window on the door and jumped down. I saw that there were some old textbooks that I had never read in the East, and the articles in them were like a spring breeze blowing in the sultry summer. In particular, Jun Qing's "Party Member Registration Form", this text is tortuous and vivid, exciting, and Donglai is very moved! Of course, what directly influenced and changed Donglai's writing style was the beginning of an unknown student's assignment. I remember that the goal of the question at that time was; One of the people I respect the most. At the beginning, it reads: "Dangdang, the class bell rings." The students ran into the classroom together, but they didn't see the head teacher walking towards the podium, and the class leader said, the head teacher is sick, please ask the students to study on their own! Suddenly, the door squeaked open, and the eyes of the students focused on the person who walked into the classroom--- he was our homeroom teacher! “

Such a beginning is tantamount to seeing the sun from the clouds for a primary school student who writes "one country, two schools, three people, and four determinations" every day! Since then, such a beginning has been deeply imprinted in his mind and has influenced him for the rest of his life.

On Friday, Donglai came home from school, and his father had not returned from a meeting. Donglai took the meal ticket to the company canteen and bought a bowl of corn porridge and a white flour bun, after eating, he was about to do his homework, Donglai's father's colleague --- Aunt Yang's youngest son An Xiaoqiang said to Donglai excitedly: "Don't write, go to the movies." ”

"It's better for you to go," Donglai lowered his head and said, "If you can't finish your homework, the teacher will criticize you tomorrow." Actually, his real reason was that he didn't have the money to buy movie tickets.

Xiaoqiang put his face close to Donglai's face: "Do you know what movie you are playing today?" ”

"I don't know." Donglai still bowed his head and wrote his homework.

"Red Star Shines 。。。。。。" Xiaoqiang sang and performed at the same time.

"Shining Red Star!" Donglai cheered, the image of the little hero Pan Dongzi shone in his mind, and then pouted and said, "But my dad is not at home, and I have no money to buy tickets." ”

"I'll just have one," Xiaoqiang scratched his scalp: "I thought your father left you money!" ”

Suddenly, Xiaoqiang's eyes rolled, and he whispered in Donglai's ear: "We are not tall, follow the adults and sneak in." ”

"I don't think it's a good idea?" Donglai picked up a pencil and wrote his homework.

Xiao Qiang saw that his good friend was not convinced, so he stuffed the movie ticket into his hand and forcibly pulled him to the door of the movie theater. I saw the ticket checking at the entrance of the movie theater. Xiao Qiang had an idea, he took Donglai's palmistry and followed a tall man to the ticket gate, the tall man went in, Xiaoqiang was trying to go in, the ticket inspector asked Xiaoqiang to show the ticket, Donglai held the ticket up, after Xiaoqiang entered, the ticket inspector asked Donglai to show the movie ticket, Donglai swallowed: "My dad is on a business trip。。。。。。 Donglai's eyes glistened with tears of shame.

"Oh, that's right." Uncle Inspector took out a dollar from his pocket and stuffed it into Donglai's hand; "You go buy a ticket." "Uncle Xie." Donglai jumped to the ticket office to buy a ticket, and happily entered the cinema with his good friend.

After returning from the cinema, the image of the little hero Pan Dongzi has been flashing in his mind, and he feels that his behavior yesterday is too embarrassing!

The next day, when Dad came back, when Dong told the "story" of yesterday, Dad was silent for a while, then took out the money from his wallet and stuffed it into his son's hand: "Do you know why I returned the money to that kind uncle tonight?" The father asked his son with a smile.

"There is borrowing and repaying, and it is not difficult to borrow again." Donglai blurted out.

"You're only half right," the father rubbed his son's head, "to be a man, you have to be grateful." ”

Donglai nodded as if he didn't understand.

On Monday, I have a Chinese class. The class teacher assigned an essay question to the students, "The Most Educational Thing". Donglai wrote an essay based on what happened yesterday. On Wednesday, the head teacher read Donglai's "Fan Wen" to the students, causing a sensation in the class. Because in that era when the "New Bagu Essay" was prevalent, such an article that expressed true feelings could appear, like a fresh breeze that made people refresh after reading, especially when such an article was written by a thirteen-year-old boy, no wonder the head teacher boasted in front of other teachers that "four." There is a little talent in the second class! ”

This incident aroused the jealousy of some "peasant children".

So, in Xiguan Primary School, Donglai became the target of public criticism, but there was a cheerful little girl who liked Donglai and defended him. Her name is Jiang Feng, although she is a "child of a high-ranking cadre", she does not put on a show at all.

Once after school, Donglai was about to go home, only to see Jiang Feng whisper to Dong: "You better leave a little late, I heard them behind me, and I was going to beat you halfway." ”

"I didn't offend them, why did they beat me?" Donglai picked up his schoolbag and prepared to go home.

"I'll go with you!" Jiang Feng saw that he insisted on leaving, and was afraid that he would suffer a loss, so he said to Dong kindly. Donglai nodded, which was an answer to this kind girl.

When they left the school and walked to Xiguan Street, they saw two boys and a girl clenching their fists and rushing to Donglai angrily. Donglai saw that it was a classmate, so he asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I want to beat you!" One of them, Wang Wenxiu, grabbed Donglai's collar and was about to make a move, Jiang Feng suddenly crossed in front of Donglai, protected Donglai and said, "Why do you want to bully people? ”

"It's your business!" Wang Wenxiu pushed her away.

"Why doesn't it matter!" One of the thin-eyed, skinny girls pouted and said, "They are all workers' children, and they wear a pair of pants!" Jiang Feng was so angry that he covered his face and cried.

"What are you going to do?" At this time, the head teacher passed by on a bicycle, and the three students had already run away without a trace.

Since then, Donglai and Jiang Feng have become good classmates and good friends. Although they are in the stage of ignorant teenagers, there is a strange feeling sprouting after all.

Donglai later learned that his good friend was the daughter of the secretary of the county party committee.

It was a Sunday, and Jiang Feng invited Donglai to his house to play. Donglai didn't agree at first, but when he heard Jiang Feng say that she had a lot of books at home, Donglai was moved. Donglai followed her into a big room, wow! Two large bookcases full of books. Donglai stood on tiptoe and flipped through the books, except for the books he had read such as "Red Rock" and "How Steel is Made", he had never read many of the books on them. Jiang Feng stood on the bench and took out a book and handed it to Dong and said, "I like this book the most!" Donglai took it curiously, and when he saw that the book was called "Bitter Cauliflower", he flipped through it and said: "Our village is full of bitter cauliflower. Jiang Feng laughed "poof" when he said this: "I'm still a talent, I don't even know such a famous book---- this is a novel!" ”

"Yes," Donglai flipped through the book carefully, and was immediately attracted by a wonderful clip of the protagonists Feng Deying and Xingli。。。。。。 He was so focused that he forgot he was at a good friend's house。。。。。。

Donglai went to Xiguan Primary School for half a year and has always been regarded as a "little talent" by the head teacher, but there is one thing that ruined his image in the eyes of the head teacher.

At the critical moment of the final exam, Donglai didn't know what unclean food he ate, he felt stomach ache at night, diarrhea did not stop, and then he had a high fever, and his father hurriedly sent him to the county people's hospital. Donglai was already in a coma with a fever, and the hospital took extraordinary measures to put ice cubes on his body to reduce the fever, and Donglai said in a groggy state: "My school bag, I want to go to school"。。。。。。 The next day, because Donglai had tossed dysentery out of the "phase" in the past two days, his father asked the head teacher to ask his son for sick leave, but the head teacher asked his father to tell Donglai that the final exam the day after tomorrow, don't forget to review at home after recuperating from illness in the past two days. The father transferred the meaning of the head teacher to his son. Donglai is not worried about the language, even if he does not review, he can pass; That is, there are many contents of politics that need to be memorized, and Donglai plans to focus on reviewing mathematics in the past two days, and concentrate on memorizing politics in the end. During this period, his good friend Xiaoqiang came to see him and brought him a book "The New Little Stone Pillar". Donglai was so immersed in the storyline that he forgot about the exam the day after tomorrow, until his father reminded him that he put his beloved novel aside and did boring math problems.

The next morning, Donglai finally finished the math problem, and he picked up "The New Little Stone Pillar" and read it with relish. It wasn't until dinner at night when his father tested how well he reviewed that Donglai remembered to memorize politics.

When Donglai picked up the political textbook and memorized it, his head was big: it was so difficult to memorize such a long text from beginning to end! This is a story about China's help in the construction of railways in African countries such as Tanzania and Zambia, if you only ask what spirit of Chinese workers is expressed, Donglai is not worried, but he is most unsure of the answer to the question: What is the description that reflects the spirit of Chinese workers' internationalism? In normal times, Donglai's ability to recite texts is outstanding, but now that he has just finished a high fever, Donglai still feels a little groggy again, and it is indeed a bit of a headache to memorize. But he still memorized it twice, and when he recited it a third time, he was already asleep。。。。。。

Early the next morning, Dad made him egg noodles. After eating the noodles in a hurry, Donglai picked up his schoolbag and went to school. It just so happened that his good partner Xiaoqiang came to invite him to school.

Dad put a cotton hat on him and dressed him in a new padded jacket that his mother had made for him. Donglai and Xiaoqiang had just walked out not far when a cold wind blew Donglai's hat away. Donglai ran a few steps to catch up with his hat, and when he put it on, he was once again blown away by the strong wind. This time it was Xiaoqiang who helped him catch up.

"The hat is too big to wear." After Donglai put on his hat, he pressed it with both hands.

"Oops, you're so stupid!" Xiao Qiang snatched Donglai's schoolbag, rudely tore off a few pages of Donglai's political book, and then stuffed it into Donglai's hat. This time he was really in charge, and his hat was tightly on Donglai's head.

At around 8 a.m., the end of the exam period began. In the morning, the Chinese language test is taken. Although Donglai was sick in the past two days, it did not affect his intelligence, and Donglai believed that everything was done right.

In the afternoon, I took a political exam. Donglai easily finished the previous multiple-choice questions, and he began to do three big questions. The first two questions were finally answered, only the last question, which was completely a test of memorization ability, Donglai sweated for answering this question, he took off his hat and put it aside.

When the time for handing in the papers came, although Donglai was not sure in a few places, he finally finished answering.

Donglai was the first to hand in the exam papers, and was about to walk out of the examination room, when the class leader Zhang Defu suddenly asked loudly: "I reported that Donglai's classmates cheated!" Zhang Defu held up Donglai's hat and took out the political pages in his hat and said to the invigilator.

"I didn't peek。。。。。。 I...... Donglai was so anxious that he shed tears.

So, Donglai was taken to the head teacher's office.

"Donglai-san, you disappointed me!" The head teacher shouted: "Politics is the commander and the soul, how can you tear politics apart。。。。。。 ”

Donglai had to bow his head and let the head teacher teach him a lesson: "I'm sorry。。。。。。 I was wrong..... ”

At this time, Xiaoqiang walked into the head teacher's office.

"Teacher Zhang, you have wronged Dongdong。。。。。。 It was I who put politics in his hat。。。。。。 ”

"Then you are an accomplice!" The head teacher yelled even more fiercely: "Both of you write me a deep examination!" ”
