Chapter 43: Back to School
In this way, I plunged headlong into the small mountain village without distraction, and no longer paid attention to the world beyond the small mountain.
Once, my cousin, who was a year older than me, asked me to accompany her to the consignment store in the neighboring village, her grandfather and my grandfather were cousins, and her father and my mother ate at the same table when they were young.
My cousin grew up with me since I was a child, and I was very good. There was a mountain walk outside the village, and she wanted to have a companion.
"Let's not go!"
I was fine, I was afraid of meeting acquaintances, and I didn't want others to see my down-and-out appearance.
More than two months have passed in the blink of an eye. One afternoon, my female classmate Fu Yangxian from a neighboring village came to my house.
"Teacher Fu told you to go to a review class."
I listened to the excitement for a while, as if a disoriented ship had seen a lighthouse in the distance.
Ms. Fu was the homeroom teacher of my junior high school and Fu Yangxian, a substitute teacher with only a high school education, who brought out the class with the first average score in Chinese, mathematics and politics in the Zhoushan District Entrance Examination. In our sophomore year of high school, he was transferred to Xiaosha Middle School to teach junior high school and lead the graduating class.
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."
The teacher has been thinking about me, how can I let him down.
I picked up my bag again.
Many of my high school classmates are in this class, returning to learn the content of junior high school and preparing for the junior high school entrance examination.
Because it was a return class, there was no arrangement for living on campus, and I had to walk 10 miles every day, and I met the mothers of some classmates several times, and asked me in an envious tone: "Nong is going to study again?" ”
I always smile and nod my head, and my steps are as light as flying.
What I learned was the content of junior high school, and the main way was to do all kinds of test papers, and then explain, because I had a good foundation in junior high school, in less than a month, the mood of boredom came up again.
There is a very tall female classmate in the class, who is from the Ma'ao Commune on the side, and it is particularly conspicuous to sit alone in the last row.
One day she suddenly stopped coming, and she didn't come for a few days.
I felt a sense of loss.
A thought came to mind: "This book doesn't taste good, it's better to go back to the village to work." "My heart is filled with the sense of harvest when I harvest rice.
I didn't go to school the next day, I told my family that I would take classes, and I would go straight to the exam next year.
I went back to working in the production team.
At that time, the sweet potatoes were being harvested, and the house was full of piles. I eat rice and sweet potato soup all day long, and my farts smell like sweet potatoes.
In the blink of an eye, it was the farming season, and during that time, I often went to Pan Chaizi's house to play. She was a year younger than me.
Her parents are called my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and they are called by the generations passed down from their ancestors. There is a saying that "people are young, and the seniors are big", and this is the truth.
That mother-in-law was very fond of me.
Her family has relatives in Taiwan and XG, all of whom were taken out by the Kuomintang when they retreated to Zhoushan at the beginning of liberation.
In our village, men over the age of 16 were arrested and taken to Taiwan as long as they did not escape. Grandpa stayed after hiding in the mountains for 3 days and 3 nights.
Chai Zi's aunt is in xG, and the two uncles are in Taiwan. At that time, there was no contact with Taiwan, and my aunt came a few times to see her grandmother, and I heard that she gave a lot of money, and often brought some old clothes.
These clothes are treated as treasures to us. My mother-in-law gave me two pieces, and there was a pair of beige pants that were given to me by Chase.
The two of them weaved fishing nets, and I worked as a helper on the side, chatting about some things in the village, and the day passed.
I was afraid to walk at night since I was a child, and one night when it was too late, they beckoned me to spend the night at their house.
When my mother found out, she didn't blame me, and said softly: "I got it first." ”
I understand what that means, it's raw rice cooked into mature rice.
I'll go back when I have time, and I know they like me.
Once, a fortune teller who measured the word of a bird came to her house, and I also calculated a hexagram.
Bird took out a piece of paper and said that I don't need to study to become a champion, and I must leave the village and go as far as possible.
This fortune-telling sentence made my calm heart restless again.
"I'm going to get out, I'm not meant to be here!"
I am a person who has a goal and must take action, and I even made a small promise to my peers: "When I have flowers outside, I will take you out." ”
When he said this, his expression was very firm.
