Chapter 11

Xiaohua remembers that when she was in elementary school, she was quite special. Normally, she should go to a rural school, but her father still gritted her teeth and sent her to the school for children of the arsenal. There is no way to enjoy it. Not only did it cost a lot of money to go to school here, but Xiaohua didn't have many friends there, because she couldn't speak Mandarin at the beginning.Because I go to the children's school, it is slightly different from the children in the village, and I didn't have any good friends in my childhood.

I remember that Xiaohua made a joke when she was a child. When she first started preschool, the teacher asked, "Xiaohua, why can't you speak Mandarin?"

Xiao Hua tilted her head and said stupidly: "Because I'm not an ordinary person, how can I speak your Mandarin?"

Because of this matter, Xiao Hua was laughed at by the adults for a long time, and almost all the adults in the village knew that it was her father who spread the word, which made the sensible Xiao Hua very ashamed.

Most of the children in the village go to rural schools. They go to school at 06:30 and leave school at 10:30 every day. They go to school at [-] o'clock in the afternoon and leave school at [-] o'clock.The children's school starts at two o'clock in the afternoon, and is released at four or five o'clock...

Therefore, the eating time of rural people is different from that of workers who go to work. Most rural people eat two meals, one after ten o'clock, and most of them drink porridge, and the second meal is eaten at three or four in the afternoon, and most of them eat staple foods such as rice noodles. , I'm hungry at night, just gnaw on something like steamed buns.Because my father goes to work and goes to school at home, the three-meal system is implemented.

Now that Xiaohua is going to school, eating has become a problem. What to do at noon, Xiaohua's family has always learned that lunch in a worker's house is the most generous, and now this meal has become a headache for Jiang's family. Now the home is a stove, not the gas of later generations. Open it as soon as it is opened, it is still very hot, and things cannot be left for too long...

"Father, come back early every day and do it!" Jiang's father said.

Xiao Hua said, "Why don't you resign, Dad! Take care of yourself at home?"

Father Jiang smiled bitterly, and said, "Dad can't grow land with his body, so he sits at work anyway, so it doesn't look so boring..."

Xiao Hua nodded abruptly, knowing that her father couldn't be idle, so she said: "Anyway, I still don't recommend eating in the cafeteria. Your health is important. Stew chicken soup and fish soup with a briquette stove. Come back and order some noodles? Or when you leave in the morning, pack up your favorite dishes and things, and we will cook together when you come back."

"And me, too!" Xiaohu shouted.

Xiao Hua laughed and said, "The preschool class is in charge of lunch!"

The little tiger is wilting...

In fact, if it wasn't for her father, Xiao Hua would very much like to have a meal together, and her father thought so too. Both of them were thinking about each other, that's why they had this little annoyance, Xiao Hua thought of it happily.

After discussing the matter of eating, Xiaohua carried the schoolbag with homework on her back, pulled Xiaohu, followed her father, and embarked on the long journey to school again...

"Dad, I forgot where I was sitting. I only remember that I am in Class Two..." Xiaohua whispered to Father Jiang when she reached the school gate.

Jiang's father was taken aback for a moment, laughed loudly, then patted her student's head, and said triumphantly, "I remember, I have held parent-teacher meetings for you for four years!" Once again when I went to the county to pick up photos and buy monkey tickets, Xiao Hua’s face was very small, and her unopened facial features were very delicate. It’s very cute to cut a doll’s head. Of course, the two red cheeks are the fault of her appearance. .

Jiang's father accompanied her to sign up, and after quietly telling her where the seat was, he took Xiaohu and left.

As soon as Xiaohua helped tidy up the classroom and sat on the seat, a girl next to her turned her face and asked, "Jiang Xiaohua, have you finished your homework?"

"It's done!" Xiaohua is actually not very sure, maybe there is something she forgot to remember.

The girl's eyes lit up, and she said, "Show me, there are a few questions I can't do."

Xiaohua didn't suspect him, so she took out her summer homework and handed it to her: "No, here you are!"

The girl, Xiao Hua, carefully glanced at the name on her summer homework, it was called Xia Tong, and she didn't have any impression after thinking about it.

While copying, Xia Tong said, "Are you familiar with English? Teacher Wang said that he will conduct random checks..."

"English?" Xiaohua was amazed. She was busy with her homework these two days and only read Chinese and math books.

"That's right! Didn't the teacher say that you should memorize all the texts during the summer vacation, and you will have to do random checks after handing out the books today? It's so late to learn..." Xia Tong was a little surprised that Xiaohua didn't listen to the teacher, she always obeyed the teacher.

Xiaohua smiled awkwardly, and said, "I just...forgot to bring my English book..." It's not a difficult task for me to just read elementary school English texts.

After a while, Xia Tong made up the homework she didn't know, and then said to Xiaohua: "I'll call you later, and I'll lend you the book. Hehe, thank you for your homework. However, your handwriting is so beautiful, you can read it. It looks like it was written by an adult." Then he sneaked into Xiao Hua's ear and asked, "Did you write it yourself?"

Xiaohua has deliberately made a stroke, but the workload is still very heavy, so she unconsciously brought some continuous strokes, which is a little surprised to see it before.Xiaohua smiled and said, "I practiced calligraphy during the holiday."

Xia Tong shrugged and said, "I will practice in the future. Compared with you, I can't even read my handwriting." After speaking, he took out his English textbook and began to read.

After a while, the name registration was over. At this time, everyone was still very obedient. The teacher said that everyone would come during this time period when the teacher said that registration was from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-]. To whom the money is torn, so the efficiency is very high.

After registering, the first thing to do is to collect the homework by the representatives of each subject, write down the names of those that have not been handed in, and then put them on the podium, and then ask a few people to distribute books to everyone... Xiaohua likes this efficiency and does not procrastinate.The homeroom teacher is a woman in her forties, she looks very serious, she also looks through the holiday homework when everyone distributes books, Xiaohua is not a class representative, patriarch or the like, she just sits on a stool to receive their services, yes This little flower is very satisfied.

"Jiang Xiaohua, who wrote your homework for you?" Suddenly the class teacher asked sternly.

Xiaohua stood up and explained: "Teacher, during the holidays, I learned to write from the old man in the village, and I practiced it."

The head teacher softened his face and said, "Then you come up and write a few words on the blackboard."

Xiao Hua still walked up to the podium, annoyed in her heart: Can chalk characters and pen characters be the same?But I still picked up the chalk and wrote on the blackboard: "New semester, new start. Work hard together and study hard."

After writing a few words, the head teacher looked very relieved, nodded, and said: "It seems that you worked hard during the holidays, you are easy to raise, go down! Students, the teacher just wronged Jiang Xiaohua a little bit because of her summer vacation. The words on the homework have really improved a lot. It is very different from before, so I misunderstood her a little, and now I apologize to her. The new semester has begun, and we will also usher in a new round. Everyone must work hard together. Study hard and try to go straight to junior high school, you know?"

"Got it!" The whole class said in unison.

Xiao Hua thought to herself, this teacher is good...

Later, the teacher in charge gave encouragement for the start of school again, knowing that the English teacher, Ms. Wang, had arrived at the door of the classroom. When the teacher in charge left, she heard someone say: "Mr. Chen was forced to leave by Teacher Wang again..." Only then did I realize that her surname was Chen.

As soon as Teacher Wang came in, he said directly: "Hello everyone, the new semester has begun, we can't leave the old problems behind, the school arranged for us to study English when we were so young, this is the level of children in the city! So We should cherish it very much, start now, raise your hand actively, whoever finishes reading first will leave first, and continue in the afternoon without finishing reading, tomorrow is Sunday, I can finish the test for every student."

Let Xiaohua have to lament that in this era, the teachers are still very serious and responsible.As soon as she heard the reading, she went home. Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and she looked up at the watch on the wall. It was only a little past eleven o'clock. Today, Xiaohu just signed up and picked up the books. He probably already went home. Dad only invited him for an hour. It's a fake, and Xiaohua, who is a little worried, quickly raises her hand.

"Student Jiang Xiaohua, do you want to start first?" Teacher Wang was very satisfied that her call was answered. Although there were still several people who raised their hands, Jiang Xiaohua was undoubtedly the only one who did not hesitate at all.

Xiao Hua asked Xia Tong if she had borrowed an English book, she stood up and nodded and explained: "My brother is still young, so I don't feel at ease being alone at home..."

When Xiaohua's mother passed away, all the teachers knew about it. Teacher Wang looked at her lovingly and said, "You can leave after finishing the last three lessons."

Xiao Hua stood up, picked up the textbook, turned to the last text first, and began to read. She spoke fluent English with an American accent, which was very pleasant to the ear. Teacher Wang felt that she was even more fluent than herself when she heard it. She was a little surprised.

After Xiaohua finished reading the three texts, Teacher Wang smiled and said: "Jiang Xiaohua, you read very well, can you teach everyone how you learn English?"

Xiaohua said: "I learned it from the tape, one sentence at a time, and read one article every day. The rest of the vacation is just reviewing."

After Teacher Wang called on everyone to study like Xiaohua, she saw that Xiaohua was a little anxious, so she let her go. Xiaohua grabbed her schoolbag and said, "Goodbye, Teacher Wang, goodbye students!" and ran away.

I can vaguely hear Teacher Wang say: "Jiang Xiaohua's mother was gone last semester, but Jiang Xiaohua's enthusiasm for studying is not..."

Xiaohua felt a little embarrassed, her family's affairs were placed in front of everyone like this, and she felt a little distressed, Xiaohu must have grown up amidst the pity of everyone.

Back home, the door is still locked, and I can vaguely hear Xiaohu playing with Xiaomei next door, Xiaohua shouted: "Xiaohu, sister is back!" Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers in her ears.

Back home to cook, Dad came home at noon, the three of us ate together, and Xiaohu happily said that he had met a lot of children at school... Xiaohua deliberately cultivated Xiaohu's Mandarin during the holiday, and Xiaohu went to school Although what he said was not very good, but there was no barrier after all, I was very happy, and promised him to help him wrap his schoolbag with a wall calendar.In fact, looking at Xiaohu's thin book with only a few pages, Xiaohua felt that there was no need to pack it at all, but seeing Xiaohu's excited eyes, Xiaohua still compromised.

Jiang's father shook his head when he went to work in the afternoon, and said to Xiaohua, "You have grown up suddenly, and my father is not used to it yet!"

"Father, there will still be some acting like a baby, don't worry!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.

"That's called pretending to be tender! But... Dad likes it..." After saying that, Jiang's father left.

Xiaohua also said in her heart: I like it too.
