Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 86
The two classes in the afternoon made it very easy for Mu Zhen to take. The history class was said to be a class, but it was actually just a review of the lessons learned in the previous two years. There is a special relationship with things, and how many members of Lao Mu's family are classmates with Teacher Yuan.Based on this, listening to people in the clan tell the story of Mr. Yuan is really like listening to a book.

At that time, Teacher Yuan was very talented, and he was one of the best in his class in all subjects. Later, he was admitted to a normal school. When he was in school, he published a novella in a national-level literary journal, which was valued by the school. When he graduated, the school decided to Let him stay in school to teach, because he is a dutiful son, with six sisters and five older sisters, and there is only one boy in the family, and the old mother in the family needs his care, so he came to this middle school to teach. After graduation, he was published in various newspapers and magazines. There were a lot of news, novels, and essays published in the magazine. Later, for unknown reasons, he closed his pen. It is said that it was because of the death of his mother, which made him distraught, and he stopped writing from then on. As a result, he became well-known Big filial son.The teacher's views on life are far beyond what everyone knows about him, and his interpretation of literature is far beyond his history class.

The other class is legal general knowledge class, and the substitute teacher is Han Suqing, who is the politics teacher of Class 10 of the third grade. Let’s not talk about the temptation of legal general knowledge class to Mu Zhen. In fact, the most tempting thing is not the course itself, but this An unsmiling teacher, his temptation is not his affinity, but his dedication, devotion and dedication to the profession of a teacher.The middle-aged Mr. Han, compared with other teachers, the biggest difference is that he is still a private teacher. The huge gap in income has not reduced his love and passion for his profession. Every morning, it is still dark. , he was the first to come to the office. After cleaning the office, he boiled the first pot of boiling water for everyone, and then went to the dormitory of each class in the third grade to wake up the students in each class who were still sleeping in their dreams. The sound of reading has already started for [-] minutes, and the school's deafening wake-up bell will ring "beep beep".The students who stayed last year called him "Zhou Papi", and this year's students gave him a more civilized name - smelling the chicken and dancing.No matter what kind of title, everyone is not disgusted with his actions, and they all think that his actions are a manifestation of his responsibility to the students.

After two classes, Mu Zhen felt very relaxed. The first thing after class was to grab the textbook and run towards the embankment. Once she came, she could go to the river to enjoy the tranquility of the embankment and enjoy the book in nature. Second, you can meet his shepherd boy and appreciate his masterpiece.

The moment Mu Zhen walked out of the classroom, she immediately rushed towards the embankment outside the school like a wild horse. Standing on the embankment every day would make him feel cheerful and cool like brainwashing, although the embankment The plants and trees on the ground have not changed much, but in Mu Zhen's eyes, these trees have feelings, and the clear river water is full of aura. People cannot do without this clear river water, and everything in the world cannot do without water. , Mu Zhen's closeness to the river sometimes reached the point where he couldn't extricate himself, so he had to take off his clothes and jump into the clear river for a swim.

Standing on the water's edge, Mu Zhen likes the clearness of the river water. It is so clear at a glance. The river water that reflects her reflection is like a mirror. People can understand the connotation of the water at a glance, without the slightest hypocrisy, without any dust. Inside; into the river water, he likes the coolness of the river water, feels the silky smoothness of the river water, which is incomparable to any cosmetics in the world, and occasionally a few unknown small fish swim to touch his every body from time to time. Inch-inch skin, the numbness produced is endless aftertaste; lying on the water, he likes the carrying of the river, his eyes are slightly closed, and his whole body is open. When lying flat on the water, only the five holes of the face are left outside, and other parts of the body When they were completely submerged in the water, what he enjoyed at this time was a kind of serenity, the tranquility of leaving the world and returning to nature. The breeze blew, and the water rippled. It is not the water itself that overturns the boat, but the help of the external wind.

When Mu Zhen sat on the second beach along the lower edge of the river embankment, she never forgot her purpose of being here—to study.He took out his textbook and read it carefully. He has forgotten where he is and where his heart is. In his mind, he only has the combination of the sky and the earth. Sitting at the combination, he can’t even read the sage. arrived book.

About half an hour later, Mu Zhen stood up and looked towards the direction where the river bends. It was still endless green, and she didn't see the flock he wanted to see, let alone the shepherd in his heart. The boy - Hu Guoqing.He was a little puzzled, yesterday he promised to deliver his composition, but today he missed the appointment, this was the first time Hu Guoqing missed the appointment, Mu Zhen sat down a little disappointed, still reading the textbook in her hand.

Just when Mu Zhen was concentrating on reading the textbook in her hand, a person appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of Mu Zhen. Mu Zhen, who accidentally raised her head, couldn't help being startled, and stood up from the grass in a jerk.

Mu Zhen had never seen this person in front of her before. She looked not tall, and her dark face made it obvious that she was the result of years of labor in the fields.Mu Zhen was a little puzzled, looked around, there was no one on Ertan, only the two of them.

"What do you want to do?" Before waiting for someone to speak, Mu Zhen asked, Mu Zhen felt that it was in broad daylight, and she had no grudges against him, and it seemed that she didn't come to find anything about her.

"I just asked if your name is Mu Zhen?" the man asked suddenly.

"Yes, how do you know my name?" Mu Zhen stared at the man's every move in a little puzzlement, in case something unexpected happened.

I saw that man took out a cloth pocket from his pocket, then opened the elastic mouth of the cloth pocket, took out a carefully folded paper from inside, and handed it to Mu Zhen: "This is what Hu Guoqing asked me to give to you." .”

Mu Zhen's heart tightened. If nothing happened, why didn't he come by himself?

"What's wrong with him, why didn't he come in person?" Mu Zhen asked hastily.

"His father is dying, and he accompanied his family to the hospital, so before leaving, give me this folded paper and let me give it to you?" the visitor said blankly.

"Who are you?"

"I'm his neighbor, and he calls me Grandpa according to his seniority." The visitor said with a sigh.

"What's wrong with his father?" Mu Zhen continued to ask.

"Hey, he had a stroke before he was 40 years old. He was paralyzed in bed two years ago. He missed the chance of treatment at that time. He just lay in bed for nearly two years. His mother was pulling three children and taking care of them in bed. It’s enough to suffer, just this morning, he suddenly became seriously ill, and he may not be able to herd sheep for a few days!” Although there were only a few words, the visitor spoke very seriously.

Mu Zhen was inconvenient to ask further questions, and immediately felt that Hu Guoqing was a loyal and trustworthy person, and even when his father was about to leave, he did not forget the friends who were waiting for him here.

"He has been studying very well, but his mother really can't take care of the family alone, so she persuaded him to drop out of school and help the family with farm work at home, and usually keep a flock of sheep to supplement the family. When he was asked to leave school, he cried to death. , everyone saw his family was pitiful, and spontaneously donated some money, but it was difficult to save the emergency, no, his father is still dying. He is also a poor child!" The visitor said with a look of helplessness.

Mu Zhen's eyes were filled with tears. When he heard Hu Guoqing talk about the family's misfortune, he didn't realize that he had encountered such a big problem. He felt that his father's illness would recover sooner or later. It just took time. More than once, I thought that he would return to the classroom like Niu Guoqing in the class, and sit in the classroom with everyone and study with peace of mind.

The visitor looked at Mu Zhen, and then said: "You are also a good person. When we chatted, he often mentioned you to me, saying that you are a good scholar and will do great things in the future. Although I haven't studied, but I also understand that scholars will have great prospects in the future.”

Mu Zhen felt that the person in front of him should be of great help to Hu Guoqing, otherwise Hu Guoqing would not have entrusted him to deliver the letter: "Thank you, you are also a good person, and he is lucky to have you as his neighbor. "

When the visitor heard what Mu Zhen said, he immediately said: "Everyone is a good person. There are still many kind-hearted people in the world. If one person is in trouble, everyone can help. As long as I can help, I will spare no effort to help."

Mu Zhen saw that it was getting late, he hurriedly said goodbye to the visitor, and walked to the school, he no longer had the mood he had when he came, replaced by sadness and depression.
