Chapter 140 Home Visit Guan Muyun
"If You Seal the Envelope with Tenderness", how could I not know that it is one of the most wonderful melodies in my memory." Lao Liao yawned.
"In memory? Is this song very old? I only came to me to listen to it after reading this novel. I asked you to seal the envelope with tenderness. Is this how you translated it? I thought it should be translated into "If Indulging in Comfort". The difference is too big. No wonder I can't hear that taste. If you seal the envelope with tenderness, it's really suitable for the artistic conception of this song." Li Xinghua disturbed her skirt and sat down next to Liao Xuebing.
Sniffing the faint fragrance from the girl's body, Lao Liao narrowed his eyes with his pillow, "I thought you had watched that movie, and only after watching the movie could you correctly translate the meaning of the song title. Otherwise, you would never understand it." If it weren't for the chance to listen to this time, Liao Xuebing thought he had never had the experience of sleeping with a beautiful girl on the grass and watching the sky.
Li Xinghua looked at him with a smile, "Teacher Liao, what kind of movie is it? Can you introduce me to take a look?"
"The Little Witch's Express Service, an old film from the 1980s, is probably impossible to have a cinema screening."
"I can find it online. The network resources are so rich, and I should find it. The name is so old-fashioned. If it weren't for the teacher's introduction, I might not even want to pay attention to the name."
"Just like a person cannot judge his heart by his appearance, a good movie is not determined by his name. Just like me, He Li is so ugly, but his heart is gentle and kind, and others cannot tell with their eyes."
"Haha" Li Xinghua smiled: "Teacher Liao, you are not ugly at all. The girls in our class said you are very handsome. Teacher, look at that cloud like a cotton candy!"
At this moment, Liao Xuebing finally enjoyed the peace that he had been pursuing in his heart, as quiet as a lake that never flooded. At this moment, even if the nuclear bomb exploded, aliens attacked the earth, and the continental plate sank, he would not frown. He really imagined what Li Xinghua said, "If you indulge in comfort", what would happen?
"It's better to have a girl who will accompany me to see the clouds every day." Liao Xuebing said in his heart.
"Teacher, do you come here to sleep every day?"
"Yes." From today on, yes.
This melancholy man seemed to care nothing, everything in the world seemed to be floating in his eyes. Li Xinghua thought so, picked up the novel and started reading it. The two of them stopped talking. The busyness of studying, the pressure of the exam, the expectation of parents, the resistance from the girls in the same class, quietly left.
In the evening, Lao Liao decided to go to Guan Muyun's house to find out why he missed classes. Finally, there was a relationship between teachers and students. This one was not here and that was late, and he was ignorant of the teacher. Based on the principle of caring for students, it was okay. Is it because I was beaten by the teacher and couldn't think about it for a while or was the family really too poor and needed to work to support myself? I have been scheming by you for so long and haven't planned to quit yet?
The Huaiguang Road Meteorological Bureau of the City is very close to the banks of the Yanzhi River in the Shuming Temple. You can smell the tide of the river from afar and see the rippling waves. The Meteorological Bureau is a low-income department. The poor benefits are directly reflected in the appearance of the old building. A wind speed ball rotates silently on the roof. There are several ancient rainfall observers in the yard. I bought a bag of fruit, asked the guard about the brand of Guan Muyun's house, and found the backyard.
This is a row of bungalows, living in more than a dozen families. The cement floor in the yard has cracked, and a few weeds have emerged from the cracks. A big yellow dog is tied to the iron chain and yells wildly. The iron chains shake with the clanging clang. At seven o'clock, most people have had supper, and a dark-skinned woman is drying clothes on the bamboo pole. "Aunt, what is Guan Muyun's home?" Lao Liao smiled and nodded to ask.
"What aunt!" The woman suddenly turned around, "I'm only 25 years old this year and I'm not married yet! I think you are the uncle? Guan Muyun's family is on No. 06, go by yourself!"
"If I were an uncle, you would be an old lady." Liao Xuebing whispered, knocking on the door of No. 06.
"Who are you looking for?" A face that looks like Guan Muyun has been aged for 30 years. This must be Guan Muyun's Guan Feng.
"I am Guan Muyun's class teacher, so I'll come to visit Guan Muyun."
Guan Feng's face suddenly stretched out: "A Yun's teacher?" He looked at him without any reproduction, and finally saw the bag of fruit in his hand, "Come in."
The light at home was very dim. A wooden sofa from the 1980s, an old color TV watching the show with a set-top antenna. The certificates that Guan Muyun won when he was in elementary school were already very yellow. A little girl in her eight or nine years old was lying under the blurred desk lamp to do homework. The child was dressed very shabby. Two large patches on the knees of her pants, a small sweater that had been worn for at least three years was squeezed against her body. The sleeves were very short, revealing most of her elbows. A woman in her forties was sitting on a small stool in the corner of the wall and knitted her sweater.
"Guan Muyun hasn't gone to school for three days. Has something happened at home?" Liao Xuebing put the fruit on the table. The brother-in-law saw the bright red and shining big apples and swallowed quietly.
Guan Feng didn't even look at him, and said in a buzzing voice: "I understand, Ayun is working and has no time to attend classes."
Lao Liao didn't know what to say at first, and only had two home visits, and it was difficult to cope with the ever-changing parents of each family. It would be better to let go and brag: "Working? Is there any job more important than studying? Have you ever heard the saying that if you don't work hard at a young age, and you'll be sad? Now it's the information age. If you don't let your son study hard, you will be eliminated by society in the future! If he didn't learn cultural knowledge well, it would be difficult for him to find a job in the future, and he will work hard labor all his life and never have a chance to make a comeback."
"You don't have to worry about this. Anyway, our children are the life of hard labor. It doesn't matter what they learn. If you don't learn, you have time to work and earn money." His mother said lightly.
"This woman has long hair and short knowledge. If she doesn't learn well, will she want him to work? Now she needs a college degree to sweep the toilet. Eggs on the street can come up with a doctoral thesis. What kind of job is Guan Muyun? He thinks he is still a student or a child. I pity him, he asked him to work and study. After three or five years, who would want him? He didn't even graduate from high school, would he go home to grow vegetables and raise pigs? The land in Zhonghai City is almost tens of thousands of dollars per square meter. Is there a place for you to grow?"
Guan Feng was frightened: "Is going to school really that important? Isn't it still stuck in the Meteorological Bureau after graduating from junior high school?"
"My father graduated from a private school in the old days and was still an intellectual later! Last year, the pork was still 8.51 pounds, but this year it rose to 20 yuan. The society has developed so quickly. Can it be compared with the present? The poorer and more honorable, but now the poorer and more shameful, why? Because most poor people are lazy, you are lazy, and there are many opportunities in society, but he just can't catch them. Don't you feel ashamed?" Old Liao spitted and made a move. When he talked about his high emotions, he stood up suddenly, scaring the little girl to break the pencil core. The little girl looked at him without blinking.
"Teacher, our family is poor because the meteorological bureau has poor performance. Ayun has a sister studying? The burden is very heavy." Ruanzhi's stiff tone just now, Guan Feng had already softened much better.
"What! You are old, why are you still not sensible at all? It is precisely because of your poor family conditions that Guan Muyun needs to continue studying, wait for a decent job after graduation, buy a house, car, and large color TV for your family, buy beautiful clothes for your sister, and buy ginseng for our two elders to nourish our children." Old Liao was like a politician on the stage, waved his hand, majestic, and made many promises to the audience.
Guan Muyun's mother spoke: "Actually, Ayun doesn't want to study very much. He said that the quality of teachers in the school is very low, especially the new class teacher, so he wants to study by himself."
Damn it! He actually talked bad things to his family. No wonder he was so cold just now? Lao Liao almost burst into tears. "There is only one Edison in the world. Although he can become a talent for self-study, he is a hundred times faster than self-study."
"Yes, I think too." Guan Feng nodded and said, "I used to go to the Meteorological Bureau and was an intern and didn't know anything. I put a blind for a long time. Later, when the master arrived, I taught me in three minutes."
Guan Muyun's mother hesitated: "Children's father, should we ask Ayun to go to class? But Tulip High School's tuition is so expensive, so it's better to transfer to a nearby technical school to learn some car repair."
"This is not possible. There are too many scammers in these two technical schools. You can't learn anything after going there. You don't want to delay Guan Muyun's future, right?" Liao Xuebing quickly analyzed to her.
"But my family still owes a lot of debts, and I will definitely not be able to pay the tuition fee for the next semester."
"Don't worry, I'm the head teacher, I'll find a way." Seeing that the little girl kept secretly glanced at the big red apple, she took one for her. The little girl stared at him without saying anything, Guan Feng shouted: "Axue! Why don't you thank uncle!"
"Thank you uncle." The little girl Axue held the apple and washed it without washing it. She took a big bite and stuffed her mouth full. The apple was very sweet and crispy. She chewed it in her mouth and made a clattering sound. Her face turned back with big eyes, looking at her father for a while, then looked at Liao Xuebing.
Seeing that the child was so cute that he felt very familiar, Liao Xuebing touched her and threw himself in his head and smiled, "Axue is so good." Axue shrank for a moment, obviously shy and afraid, but she quickly realized her impoliteness and straightened her waist again.
