Chapter 45

Harvesting wheat is the most tiring farming season of the year. For the farmers in Zhuoma Township who are used to living a serious life, the work of planing rations is more important than the New Year’s Day. The typical combination is the first cut of the parents and the older children Chopping, chopping and tying, the younger children picking wheat ears behind, a family regardless of gender, old or young, the whole family is in battle, even the elderly on crutches, also take on the task of delivering food to the fields for the whole family.

Harvesting is the beginning, drying is the most troublesome, threshing is the most tiring, and raising is the most lively. After a few days, there are stacks of wheat straw one or two stories high everywhere in the village, half of which are dry food for livestock to chew when there is no grass in winter. Bar.Half of it is used as materials for ramming mud in the village, and it also adds a fun place for the wild children in the village.When the teachers who came from the city to practice in Zhuoma Township came back to class during the holidays, only half of the first-year students had arrived. Shan Changgen led the teachers to call back half of them from various homes, and the other half were parents and teachers from the village. The horns were pulled back.

The class started again, except that the students got tanned a little after the weather, there was no change, but there were some changes in the teacher group, Lei Dapeng was missing, and he was still in the hospital, and he would definitely have to recuperate for a few days Well, the internship period is only two months, and there are only a few days left, so I have to say whether I will come or not.Without the gags of starting a fire, not to mention, the quietness is indeed quiet, but it will inevitably make people feel a little lonely.Class monitor Ding Yizhi didn't say much at first, Wang Huating and Liu Cuiyun were spoiled again, Si Muxian used Lei Dapeng's computer to work on his graduation thesis, and the burden of taking care of this group of people fell on Shan Yong alone.

The class continued, there was nothing new, not to mention that Shan Yong thought it was not interesting, and it seemed that the students were not interesting in learning.

No, Shan Yong is talking about the papers of the unified examination, listening to one of the questions: the major decision of the municipal party committee and the municipal government to solve the urgent problems reported by the masses: answer A, build a safe Luzhou, create a charming city, and build a harmonious society; answer B , for them to think more about the society, and to have more social responsibility; answer C, to start to alleviate the problem of travel difficulties in the urban center... let alone students, Shan Yong may not be able to solve this problem, it is really painful The problem.

For these similar questions, the students gave a lot of painful answers. For example, the classical Chinese reading is "Wolf" selected from Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio". Yes, that wolf is an idiot, there are only bones and no meat in the burden, and he still grabs it! ...Accumulated application questions: There are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the coquettish for hundreds of years, this coquettish refers to... the students fill in are sluts and broken shoes!
Even if Lei Dapeng hadn't misled his disciples, the answers of these students were enough to make people feel ridiculous.Shan Yong stumbled and stumbled on a question, and at the end of the question "Nasu Buying a Supervisor", the one who paid for an official would not take the exam and wrote a sentence "Because I am afraid of this, so I am so, I still have to be like this, why bother to do this" and said At this moment, looking at the table full of students suddenly made him think.

In fact, I don't like this look at all, why bother?But being restrained by school and family, it still has to be like this. In this way, it's really not as good as that bastard Lei Dapeng can do whatever he wants, instead of standing on the podium as hypocritically, seriously, and pretentiously like himself, To this group of Dapeng students who were talking about the "migrant worker reserve team", they said grandly and against their wishes, "Our city pays attention to fundamentally solving the problem of employment and life for disadvantaged groups..."

"Okay, let's stop here. The test results this time are not ideal, but the main reason is that there are some problems in this question, many of which are beyond our study scope, and even the teacher can't... just work harder next time, study It doesn't matter if it's good or not, it's important to live a good life...Everyone can read their compositions for themselves, and just correct the typos..."

When Shan Yong had a flash of inspiration, he came to relax, completely relaxed and no longer restrained. At this moment, a group of herding sheep roared, as if they were liberated. I didn't expect to pass the level so easily. Look at Teacher Shan's eyes In the book, I also brought a little bit of love.

"Teacher..." Someone raised his hand and shouted.

"What's the matter, Shui Sheng." Shan Yong knew this naughty boy.

"Why didn't our teacher Lei come?" Niu Shuisheng asked.After asking, dozens of pairs of eyes turned to Shan Yong longingly, Shan Yong's smile faded away, but he didn't expect Lei Dapeng to be unpopular at school, since the foundation of this place is pretty good, he smiled and said : "Teacher Lei is sick and hospitalized, and I will take over for the time being."

"Then is he still here?"

"Can we see him?"

"Shall we go together?"

"Teacher Shan, is Luzhou far from here?"

"........."

It's over, you will die if you catch it, and you will mess up if you loosen it. When you mention Teacher Lei, the student who has been holding back for several days is fried. Looking at this group of rural students who usually seem to be ignorant, I don't know when the friendship between teachers and students has become so deep.Suddenly, Shan Yong slapped the desk and shouted, "Quiet...it's class time, what's the matter!?"

The child was frightened all of a sudden, Shan Yong was both surprised and jealous, he worked so hard to teach, it would be better if Sha Lei misled his children here, and was about to reprimand him pretending to be a teacher, but looked at With longing, timid and suspicious eyes, Shan Yong couldn't bear it anymore, smiled, lowered his voice and said, "I can't see Mr. Lei for now, but I have a way... How about talking to him? Come here aquatic……"

As soon as the bald boy left his seat and rushed up, the whole class was envious.Shan Yong fumbled for the mobile phone, pulled Lei Dapeng's phone, and the call came through as soon as he pulled it out, saying that the student wanted to talk to him, and Lei Dapeng over there was also very happy. The sentence is: "Brother Lei, why are you in the hospital? If you don't come, no one will take us to play... My sheep have given birth to two cubs, and my mother said to milk the sheep for you."

"I said, I said..." Another crew cut came up to me.

"Don't grab, don't grab... Hey, Brother Lei, come quickly when you are well, we will give you a sparrow."

"Mr. Lei, my mother told you to come to our house for dinner."

Boys and girls, with Niu Shuisheng as the center, are crowded together. Shan Yong’s mobile phone is unlucky. He is snatched by this, dragged by that, and rushes to chat with Lei Dapeng’s parents on the phone. Shan Yong can’t laugh or cry. Now he knows why Lei Dapeng's mass base is so good, he doesn't regard himself as a teacher, but treats his students as brothers, brothers are commensurate, and naturally brotherly love is deep.

Without disturbing the enthusiasm of the students, Shan Yong stood at the door of the classroom. He seemed to be looking at the sunset on the western mountain, but he was actually watching the door. He was afraid that the principal would find out that his teaching method tended to be Lei Dapeng's model. After arguing for a while, someone pulled him Touching the corner of his clothes, a timid voice said: "Teacher, smoke is coming out of your stove."

Looking back, it was Jing Yanyan, a little girl in the class. She was surprised and turned her head again. It was really the school kitchen that was smoking. This frightened Shan Yong couldn't care less about guarding, and rushed towards the kitchen. He just ran a few steps. Seeing Liu Cuiyun and Wang Huating running out of the kitchen, coughing and choking their eyes, Shan Yong shouted angrily: "Hey, what's the matter, I told you to start a fire, but you set it on fire instead."

"It's not lit, it's just smoke." Liu Cuiyun coughed and wiped away tears.

"What's going on, why is there smoke but no fire?" Wang Huating was also embarrassed, wiping her tears.

Shan Yong held his nose and went into the kitchen. He first looked at the stove, poured cold water on it, and then looked at the flue. He understood that the flue was not opened, and the wheat straw that ignited the fire was damp.Hastily opened the lid, cleaned the stove, opened the window again, rushed out to grab some dry firewood and wheat straw, waited for a long while to return to the kitchen after the smoke was exhausted, and after a while, when the fire was lit again, the two quietly Frowning, he came in from the door, looked at Shan Yong and smiled again, the two of them had their faces smeared, and turned their heads to wash their faces embarrassedly.

In the past, whenever I saw Lei Dapeng raw ham slow, and the smoke was too heavy, I would always be kicked by Shan Yong. Now I understand, this life is not easy, at least few people are not as good as Lei Dapeng.Shan Yong glanced back, sighed, and said nothing.Scooping water, washing rice, cutting sweet potatoes and shredded radishes, I asked Liu Cuiyun to give the students in the class homework for the evening, so I decided to prepare dinner by myself.Wang Huating looked at Shan Yong who was busy, not only did not help, but also a little bit of a waste of help, so frustrated, she also slipped away with Liu Cuiyun.

After school, cheering students ran out of the school in groups of threes and fives. Another day passed, and the end of the internship was getting closer. Si Muxian and Ding Yizhi went to the kitchen first, followed by Liu Cuiyun and Wang Huating. I didn’t dare to mention what happened not long ago, dinner is already done, braised sweet potato with millet, served with shredded radish, typical country taste, soft and sticky sweet potato with shredded radish with squeaking sound, quite delicious flavor.

But only this kind of sound, Lei Dapeng is not here, these days are a lot lonely, but Si Muxian asked why the fire was so smoked just now, Liu Cuiyun was embarrassed to talk about it, Wang Huating smiled and said: "I didn't notice it before. Ah, Lei Dapeng is not useless."

"Of course, Lei Ge has a great lung capacity, and he is a master of bragging. He only needs a match to make charcoal, which is not lower than the level of professional barbecue." Si Muxian said with a smile.Everyone laughed, only the squad leader saw Wang Huating talking about that bastard so enthusiastically, and interjected a little displeased: "What's the use of being able to eat?"

"Hehe, if you can't even eat well, you are useful, so what's the use?" Shan Yong retorted.

Ding Yizhi usually doesn't talk and argue with people very much, but today he seemed to have changed his gender, and said straightly: "The seventh grade of the township unified examination, ranked first in Zhuoma Township, if the department's subsequent evaluation takes this as a model , that's pretty cool."

This remark made everyone very depressed and spoiled the scenery. Although Lei Ge is not a bad person, he is really a good teacher. If he really wants to spread it back to the school, it will add another good talk.Shan Yong was choked by this sentence, lowered his head thinking about something, and didn't say a word.Ding Yizhi misunderstood this expression, and thought he had really hit Shan Yong's sore spot, so he said worriedly: "Time is running out, I think we should strengthen the final exercises of the seventh grade, after all, Hua Ting and I are both This group, we are not as good as other groups.”

As if a thorn had been stabbed into Shan Yong's buttocks, he couldn't sit still, and gave the squad leader a sideways glance angrily, but he felt that this person was less pleasing to the eye than Lei Dapeng, so he choked and said, "What you care about is this Ah, this is not a problem, right? You eighth and ninth graders are in one group. Dapeng and I are in the other group, so I won’t smear your squad leader with a branch secretary.”

"That's not what I meant." Ding Yizhi emphasized.

"Then what do you mean, if you despise Dapeng, you still despise me..." Shan Yong said.

"I mean, we, as a group, are going to..."

"What do you want? When did we become a group? I came here by myself. I wasn't in your group at all. Lei Dapeng withdrew halfway, so you don't need to count him..."

The two choked, and Ding Yizhi's face turned pale. He knew that the student in front of him couldn't be provoked by his mouth, let alone his fists. He looked at him awkwardly. Wang Huating came to smooth things over, gave each of them a hygienic eye, and scolded: "What's the point of discussing this during meal time? It's meaningless, it's just arguing about useless things. You two might as well win the donkey by fighting for wine."

At this point, Si Muxian and Liu Cuiyun couldn't help laughing again. The unhappiness was resolved, but the grudge could not be resolved. After eating hastily, Shan Yong left first, Ding Yizhi followed, and Simuxian wanted to wash away Liu Cuiyun preempted the bowl, knowing that he was preparing a thesis, and gave him more time. When Wang Huating helped Liu Cuiyun wash up and left the kitchen, she saw that Shan Yong was busy with new things again.

What is it, she has no way of knowing now, she is building a square table on the basketball hoop, the bricks are picked up from the village, the mud is carried by herself, and it is reconciled with fine wheat straw, which is said to be better than lime The sand was still firm, and when she walked closer, Wang Huating knelt down and asked, "What are you bothering about?"

"Set up a ping-pong table." Shan Yong said.

"This can play table tennis." Wang Huating couldn't believe it. The table was very narrow, and the mud bricks were not evenly leveled.

"You're stupid, put a prefabricated cement board on it, it's a simple platform." Shan Yong said.

Wang Huating said disdainfully: "Why bother, just chip in and buy one."

"How much money do you have? Can you make everyone here rich?" Shan Yong prodded again.Now Wang Huating was really upset. When Shan Yong turned his head inadvertently, Wang Huating was staring, as if he was about to pick a brick to shoot someone at any time. Shan Yong smiled and explained: "Money can't solve all problems, and it's nothing. Problems need to be solved with money... Do you think that charity and donations are good things? You try to raise millions of dollars for the village, and you will have to raise a group of lazy people in less than two years. The walls, playgrounds, toilets, basketball hoops here, Don’t we all do it by ourselves, why use money to deprive everyone of the ability to learn to do it by themselves in the future?”

Well, it's kind of interesting. Wang Huating thought about it, and it's true. Just a few Hope Primary Schools in this village were donated before, and they were either abandoned or turned into pigpens and barns. , watching Shan Yong busy, when she got up to leave, she stopped again.

I was attracted by Shan Yong's very focused, dedicated, and careful workmanship. It seemed that he was not building a simple table for the middle base, but building a magnificent building.So she squatted down again, wanting to help, but she didn't know how to intervene. She just picked up a few broken bricks and stuffed them into the gap, giggling silly, this thing is much more difficult for her than writing a few papers .

This time, Shan Yong looked at Wang Huating with much softer eyes. He didn't realize that the secretive branch secretary had such a cute side, so he taught Wang Huating to build two bricks. , That's good, after a while, it's mud.Others were busy with their own affairs, only these two were busy building the platform, mixing mud, and stacking bricks. When it was getting dark, Shan Yong took the bucket to the river to wash. Wang Huating stretched her tired waist and did not follow. , back to the dormitory.

They are busy these days, Si Muxian and Liu Cuiyun are busy working on their thesis together, they are using Lei Ge's game computer, and this thing finally comes in handy.The monitor, Ding Yizhi, even returned to the dormitory very late, and he was working hard in the office to prepare lessons and papers, or he was still thinking about how to quickly improve the grades that were pulled down by Lei Dapeng in the seventh grade.

Turning around, it felt so boring. At this time, Wang Huating missed the lazy life at home, surfing the Internet, watching TV, or going to the night market with friends. There is really no entertainment at all in this remote village. I waited for Shan Yong on the balcony for a long time, just wanting to talk to someone, ever since I vaguely said something that I didn’t like in the kitchen that night, every time I saw Shan Yong, he felt so light and thumping with a little rabbit in his heart a feeling of.

Do you really like it?
Maybe it's because Wang Huating thinks about this more than a month of life that is more exciting than her four-year university life. Either she gets carried away with joy, or she is shocked, and she doesn't eat comfortably. It seems that she has never been in contact with these foodies. Life is still pretty exciting.Even Wang Huating couldn't tell whether she was too rigid and liked this way of life, or started to fall in love and fell in love with that person.

So don't you like it?

It doesn't seem to be the case, this handsome, wild and a little rogue boy is like a magnet attracting her, and he took great pains to come here for an internship.He took pains to get closer to him.He even tried his best to figure out his thoughts sometimes...but everything seemed to be in vain. When he got closer, he found that he was far less mysterious and complicated than before. The reason why he came to Zhuoma Township was because of the No one cares about it.Stealing the opportunity, I always want to come up with some new tricks, either eating or playing, even playing so much in the donkey garden, it is also a combination of playing and eating, and eating to the extreme, Wang Huating during the holidays Only then did I find out that the dish I tasted that day was called "Braised Money in Red Soup and Abalone Sauce", which can only be tasted in places rich in Texas donkeys, and not everyone can make it.

After all, he is just a foodie player. Wang Huating defined it with a smile on her face. Thinking about Shan Yong, Lei Dapeng, and Sim Muxian's various hilarious things, she felt that even the tragedy in the world happened in Among these three people, there will also be a strong sense of comedy, such as Lei Dapeng, who played the role of a hero so tragically and then came back to win a donkey.

She smiled and didn't think much about it. When Shan Yong didn't come back for a long time, she went downstairs alone, left the school gate, and searched for the river along the village road...
