C39 The County Center Primary School Teacher Came to Visit
County Central Primary School started less than two months ago. It was already the beginning of winter. On the day of October 24th, 2007, China's first moon orbiting satellite successfully launched into the sky. It was named - Chang'e 1.
After Tao Huizhen received the newspaper, she specially told the story. She communicated and discussed with the children about the progress of China's moon exploration project. For this day, For the "Chang'e 1" moon exploration trip. The scientists in China had prepared for more than ten years. Ten years of sharpening a sword was also good. They had passed the initial stage. After building a more solid foundation, they would be able to walk longer and faster in the future. Tao Huizhen firmly believed that.
Tao Huizhen and her own students were constantly witnessing the various changes brought about by the high-speed trains of their motherland as they advanced.
Last summer. The Poverty Altering Office put Mengla County into the list of key poverty alleviation counties. Among them, the entire county's super poor village included the village of Da Tea Village.
After more than a year, the job of helping the poor was also being carried out in an orderly manner. Tao Huizhen had once said that. That path. . . And that mountain was the root of poverty. The investigators of the Poverty Relief Department seemed to agree with this logic. In order to make money, they had to build roads first. The relevant departments made up their minds: They had to cut off all means of retreat. They wanted to build roads within three years and six months. They would open up the road between the village of Da Tea Village and Mengla County.
The "road" he was talking about was not that winding road. It was not the muddy road that could not be passed through the rain. The relevant units indicated that they wanted this road to be accessible at any time and anywhere. At the level of being able to get through cars. They wanted the people outside to be able to come in and out, and the people inside to be able to go out. He can't let Dai Village become a City Surround.
This was only one of the steps that the Poverty Relief Department did for the overall poverty alleviation work of Dai Village. But, wasn't this also a good change brought about by the high-speed train?
After hearing this news, Tao Huizhen sometimes looked at the winding red dirt road outside the small village and thought. If the dirt road there had turned into an oil road, how spectacular would it be? Riding a bicycle could also quickly reach Mengla County. Things that hindered people's footsteps would no longer exist.
Mountains and flowing water, the fragrance of tea filled the air. If there was no mountain that surrounded people, There was a path to the outside world. In fact, Dai Village should also be a fertile country, right? Those things that once troubled people would also become magnificent scenery. Tao Huizhen felt that. . . Other than that, the people of Dai Village should also learn more technical means. Even if it was just tea, it shouldn't be limited to green tea. The tea culture was extensive and profound in China. There were more things that could be developed. She hoped that all her wishes would be fulfilled, and she would be able to see the other side of Dai Village, which was colorful.
In winter, time walked silently in the lazy sunlight. But it passed in the blink of an eye. Life repeated itself in the rhythm of no change. It was as if the entire Dai Village had fallen into a state of panic and stability. The clock on the wall. The calendar at the corner of the table was unknowingly drawing circles and flipping them. One day, Suddenly, he looked at the tools used to measure time in disbelief. It was already this season of the year.
At 6 PM on October 24th, 2007, Xichang Satellite City. . . The rocket pushed Chang'e No. 1 into the sky, about 200 kilometers away from the surface of Earth. The rocket and the satellite were successfully separated. Chang'e 1 then flew into the distance in orbit. At that time, Tao Huizhen told the children that China's moon exploration project had reached this step. The difficult road was unimaginably bumpy. She had even brought them to look at the horizon in the evening, attempting to see with their naked eyes. They could see the flashing light when the satellite passed by the nearest orbit.
On the 25th and 26th days, Chang'e No. 1 circled the earth twice and changed orbit twice in space! On the afternoon of the 31st, Chang'e One, who was circling the earth, returned to the nearest location and changed orbit once again, allowing Chang'e One to enter the Earth Moon transfer orbit. It was truly heading towards the boundless moon that was 380,000 kilometers away from Earth. It was a journey that never came back.
Tao Huizhen calculated the time and muttered in her heart, "Chang'e is going for the moon, Chang'e is going for the moon. . . "
A week later, Chang'e No. 1 successfully arrived at the fixed orbit of the moon. Two hundred kilometers away from the surface of the moon, they began their journey around the moon. Over the next year, It would complete all its missions here and eventually crash on the surface of the moon. On this day, Officer Wang and a teacher from the primary school of County Central Primary School arrived at Da Tea Village Primary School. They also brought a new newspaper for the past few days.
This was the first time a teacher from the county primary school had come to Da Tea Village. He walked around the simple school building three times. He frowned slightly. Tao Huizhen followed behind the teacher who was called an outstanding teacher. She thought, He must have remembered his teaching environment and compared it with the Da Tea Village Primary School, right? His heart must be filled with emotion.
Then, the teacher saw the children's tables, chairs, and textbooks. He sized up the empty classroom. A lonely primary school. The five-star red flag was floating on the flagpole. His eyes began to heat up. Walking up to the three feet podium, he habitually felt the atmosphere there. . . He touched the blackboard that Tao Huizhen had used before. It was full of bumps and hollows, as well as wood chips and thorns. It was completely different from the green blackboard that he had used. Walking down from the podium, the teachers from the county town were already in a very emotional state. He accidentally scratched the nail on the head of the podium. He was almost injured.
He shook hands with Tao Huizhen as soon as he got off the podium. He was very curious how Tao Huizhen managed to hold on by herself.
"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Tao. This place is completely different from what I expected. It's even worse. " The male teacher said.
Tao Huizhen sometimes found it very strange as well. Why did she persist so firmly?
"How many lessons does Teacher Tao attend every day? If it's just one person, is it the first half of the class and the second half of the class? It's really tiring. I must rest well on Saturday. I heard that the environment in the Great Tea Village isn't very good. It's really tiring. "
" I give Wazi eight lessons every day. I teach him duplicates. I teach seven years' worth of children. He didn't rest for the whole day except for lunch. He spent the night preparing for class. He never gave the kids holidays on Saturday. Regular studies. " Tao Huizhen stared at her students with deep affection. She turned her head and looked at the pale male teacher's face. "Even if you work so hard, Our standards are still a lot lower than the County Central Primary School's. I don't know what to do to improve further. Let's increase the distance between us and the county's primary school. "
When he finished speaking, Officer Wang couldn't help but lower his head.
The male teacher's face turned red. His gaze swept across Tao Huizhen's body and he became respectful. He could not imagine how he was able to teach without resting days all day long. An ordinary teaching teacher. She had been able to do this for more than a year. "You are an excellent teacher, you have done very well. You've already made us blush with shame. It's too hard on you. " The male teacher only said this after a long time.
Tao Huizhen smiled and said: "The children are even harder than me. They are still young. But we seem to have gotten used to it. Learn. Only then will they have a promising future. "
At this moment, the male teacher and Officer Wang looked at each other. The words that he had prepared were difficult to say at this moment. He felt that doing this was too unfair to Tao Huizhen. The children here were all nurtured with Tao Huizhen's painstaking efforts.
She seemed to have felt it. Tao Huizhen pointed outside the school building. She took Officer Wang and the male teacher out of the school dormitory. She said, "You have other business here, right?"
"Teacher Tao, the class monitor in the class is called Bai Junmao, right? He was the best student. After September, he should be in the seventh grade as well. He's the only seventh grade student you're teaching right now, right?" Officer Wang asked.
When Tao Huizhen heard this, she already knew the reason why the two of them went deep into Dai Village. Her head drooped down. She had no choice but to nod and say: "Yes, Junmao's family can't afford him to go to the county town for middle school. I promised him that I would teach him the basic courses for the seventh grade alone. . . "
"That's amazing. " The male teacher gave him a thumbs up. Officer Wang immediately introduced the male teacher to Tao Huizhen. He was the teacher in charge of Year 1 Class 1 in the middle of primary school in the county center. His surname was Chi.
"You want to take Junmao away?" Tao Huizhen used a statement. Then she raised her head and looked inside the school dormitory. Bai Junmao was still unaware. He was reading a book.
"Yeah, but Teacher Tao. . . This is a good thing. The county center school will cover all of Bai Junmao's expenses. As long as he was willing to study hard, everything would be solved. We will get your permission here. We'll discuss it with his parents later. Good seedlings must be nurtured well. I believe Teacher Tao also hopes this way, right?" The male teacher wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Alright, you guys let him finish today's class. I agree, I'll talk to the child later. You guys need to talk to his parents more clearly. You have to let the parents understand the importance of a child going to the county to study. This is a very important step for Junmao's future. "
Tao Huizhen's words were somewhat choked with sobs. Her chest felt inexplicably stuffy, as if something was strangling her chest. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. However, she still insisted on finishing her sentence.
Although she didn't want to let Bai Junmao go, she didn't want to see her students slip away one by one from her side. She wanted to grab onto something. Even if it was some unrealistic psychological consolation. She didn't want to see empty tables and chairs. But reality and her reason told her. Leaving was the right decision. In the middle school of the county center primary school, the teaching environment and teaching standards were beyond the reach of Da Tea Village primary school. From the start, that was where Bai Junmao should have gone.
When the two of them were about to leave. Tao Huizhen called out to the two of them again. She waved the newspaper in her hand and said earnestly, "Officer Wang, Think of a way to get more books. The children do not have to read outside school right now, they are reading the newspaper just like me. Every time a new newspaper arrives, they want to flip through it over and over again. The children crave knowledge. "
Officer Wang's footsteps froze. Actually, it was also very difficult for him to make every decision. He had already done a lot of work in the establishment and operation of Da Tea Village Primary School. In the education department of a small county town, His ability was still very limited. Moreover, there were other education branches in the county that needed more resources. Many a time, he was willing but lacked the strength. However, he saw the sense of responsibility from Tao Huizhen. And the empathy she felt for the child. This caused Officer Wang to be unable to refuse.
She was just a volunteer teaching, but she had already done it. Officer Wang felt that he still could not reach that level. Every time Teacher Tao saw the students' eyes, she could not help but fight for more for them. Tao Huizhen had already reached the point of "forgetting herself" when it came to teaching the students.
"Sigh, I will also do my best to help. I'll collect some old books and send them to you. " The male teacher couldn't help but say.
Perhaps he was moved by Tao Huizhen's actions in the past. Officer Wang was also an educator. In the end, he gritted his teeth and agreed. Even though in the current era, In Mengla County, studying outside classes was still a luxury for primary school students. However, Officer Wang felt that. . . Today, he took Tao Huizhen's best student away. At the same time, he had also taken away a piece of Tao Huizhen's heart. Just treat it as the best compensation for Teacher Tao.
