As soon as Li Anle said these words, Li Guoxi was really surprised.
"Can't you go up?"
Li Anle saw something wrong on Li Guoxi's face. Is it possible that he is not qualified to go to school in these days? The eighth generation of poor peasants has a high status. Is it possible that he can't even go to school?
"That's not true, it's just..."
"It's just what, Dad, please tell me quickly, it's really scary."
"For the kids in our team who haven't gone to school, the school is in a commune, seven or eight miles away, more than ten miles back and forth..."
Those who haven't gone to school, that's true, my eldest uncle, second uncle, and third uncle's family have a group of young children, the oldest of whom are fifteen or sixteen years old, and they haven't seen school. Feeling that no one is willing to go to school these days.
"I'm not afraid of the long journey."
Li Anle still insists that he mainly loves to study, and other farm work and other things should be put aside first. Even if he is a loner, he must persist in studying. If he doesn't do it, he will go crazy.
"I don't think it comes out at the same time."
Li Guoxi scratched his head a little. Going to school, he really hadn't thought about it. However, Shi Qin had attended a private school for a few years and he knew a lot about the importance of literacy in school. "Why don't you give it a try? It's better to learn literacy in school than to be blind."
."
"But what's the use of going to school? You can't take the exam and go to the city."
"Who can say for sure? What if I can take the exam and enter the city again one day?"
Shi Qin just said this casually, but he didn't feel that there was much possibility in his heart. He just helped his son fight for it. Li Guoxi thought for a while. "Okay, I will tell my mother tomorrow."
"I'm afraid that even if it succeeds, we will still have to pay for the tuition ourselves."
Although the tuition fee is not high, only one or two yuan per semester, Li Guoxi feels that because of his mother's temperament, he is afraid that he will not pay it.
The couple thought they would get one or two yuan for tuition, but where did they get the money? They had already bought and eaten the two yuan they received during the Chinese New Year!
"If I had known better, I would have saved myself two bites."
…………
"Go to school?"
Having breakfast early in the morning, everyone was eating dried sweet potato porridge and pickles on a large wooden table with adobe. Li Guoxi mentioned about Li Anle going to school, and Wang Xiulan frowned. "What's the use of going to school?
The first batch of kids in the east of the village who go to school in the city can’t even do farm work and can only sneak around, so what kind of education are they going to get?”
"Besides, your children don't have the brains to go to school."
"No, this child Anle is not suitable for school." Ernie said with a smile. "Don't be exhausted by then, this is a big deal."
"Sister-in-law, why do you say that? Our Anle family is very smart." Shi Qin was not happy. What did he mean? He meant that his child's brain was not strong enough.
"Okay."
Li Ermao knocked on the table with his cigarette pole. "Say a few words, fourth daughter-in-law, don't worry about school now. You have already gone to school to learn how to read. Let's teach Anle first. If this can be done, then we can talk about school."
matter."
"Yes..."
"What your dad said is that you haven't been to school. After work, you should teach Anle to read a few words at home." Wang Xiulan didn't want to spend a dollar or two to send her grandson to school. She didn't see a group of educated youths in Dongtou.
Among the city kids who go to school, I don’t see a good one.
She can't do anything and eat cleanly, and with the example of the fourth daughter-in-law in front of her, Wang Xiulan doesn't have a good impression of educated youth. Besides, she still needs money, which delays her earning work points.
"Mom, I don't have any books, how can I teach you?"
Shi Qin still wanted to struggle, but Li Anle was already dead beside him. Hey, there was probably no hope of going to school.
"Lao Wu, isn't your sister-in-law a teacher? Come back and ask if you have any old books that you don't need and borrow a few."
Wang Xiulan didn't wait for Shi Qin to finish and said, "Eat quickly, it's time to go to work."
Li Guoxi and Shi Qin looked at each other, this matter can only be left as it is, but Li Anle didn't say anything, it was useless. In this big family, grandma is the queen mother and still listens to politics from behind the curtain. As for grandpa not being in charge, uncle Li Guofu is an honest man.
, he’s good at work, but he’s clumsy when talking.
Besides, Li Guofu probably has the same views as his grandma about going to school. Otherwise, there are four children in the family, the eldest is 14 or 15 years old, and the youngest is almost 10 years old. None of them goes to school. The second uncle, Li Guolu, will not talk about it anymore. He follows his grandfather and the family
Ninety-nine percent of the time, the second uncle is responsible.
The second uncle definitely doesn't like Li Anle going to school. Not to mention the money, there is one less person to earn work points. The third uncle and the third uncle are so arrogant that they may have already calculated the accounts in their hearts. They don't think they can take any advantage, so they will definitely not stand.
Came out to speak for Li Anle.
As for the fifth uncle, I am afraid that he is preoccupied with getting a wife. He has no time to care about this nephew who is not in contact with him. Only my sister-in-law opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything. There is no way. I'm afraid it will be useless to talk about my sister-in-law's status in the family.
.
As for the other brothers and sisters, they all stared at Li Anle as if they were aliens. They had never thought about going to school. Only stupid Li Anle thought about it. It was useless to work hard and earn money.
The work points are real.
Besides, what kind of school do farmers go to? What’s the use of it if they don’t come back to farm the land to harvest food? It’s really bizarre.
Li Anle could only smile bitterly. It was 80% difficult to go to school. He could only wait for when the college entrance examination would resume. Alas, Li Anle never thought that one day he would desperately want to go to school but could not. Thinking about before time travel, he wished that the school would explode.
, going to school is simply the most painful thing in the world.
Now, haha, going to school is simply heaven, go to work, think about the bright sun outside, Li Anle sighed, he is right when he is surrounded by blessings. "Go to the toilet more often, don't be stupid."
Keep doing it.”
"I know, Dad."
Li Anle replied feebly, "It's so hot today, at least 35 or 6 degrees Celsius, it's really going to kill me. Why don't it rain?" he thought as he squinted at the sun in the sky.
It’s uncomfortable. On a new day, I still endure torture that I shouldn’t have to endure at this age.
"What's going on?"
As soon as Li Anle stood in the team, he noticed something was wrong. There were many little kids around him pointing at him, and the women were even more unscrupulous, looking at him with strange smiles on their faces. Li Anle subconsciously covered the position of the little cock.
Could it be that he was wearing crotchless pants? No, Li Anle subconsciously grabbed a handful of them. Fortunately, they were not crotchless pants. After grabbing them, he remembered that he only had one pair of pants with three or five large patches and a dozen small patches. In these days, it is considered good for a child to have one set of clothes that he can wear every season. Some families only have one set of clothes. It is very common for children to have bare buttocks in their teens, and even worse, a family only has one pair of pants.<
/p>
It’s no joke that everyone wears it when they go out. Fortunately, Li Anle still has a pair of pants to wear. Although this is a layered style for spring, autumn and summer, it is still better than wearing no pants.
"Anle, I heard that you are going to school?"
"Is this really happening in Guoxi's family?"
What's going on? How did the news about going to school spread? I turned around and glanced at the two brothers Li Anding and Li Anju who were evasive. They didn't run away. This matter must have spread among the two brothers.
For a moment, the children burst into laughter because the famous little fool in the production team actually wanted to go to school.
Isn’t this a big joke? No wonder they are called fools. In these days, who can go to school except fools? It is better to earn a few more work points at home, eat well and wear warm clothes.
For the first time, Li Anle felt that going to school was embarrassing.
Fortunately, I am a child, so face is not worth asking for. As for my parents, stop making trouble. Face is not as important as a fried peanut to them. In the next few days, Li Anle was teased a lot.
.
"Little Silly Le, smiling, happily blowing up the school with a pack of explosives..."
Li Anle looked at the sky speechlessly. As for it, how could he sing a song to praise his 'great achievements' after just going to school?
"Forget it, forget it, I wanted to take you little brats to play, but since I don't know how to appreciate it, forget it. I might go to my dad to find something delicious." As soon as such a happy thought came out, Li Anle couldn't think of anything better.
Not at all sentimental about being led to play.
"Xiao Le, come here."
Li Anle found Li Guoxi and was taken to the reservoir to take a bath. As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he heard Uncle Wu calling him and hurried over. "Uncle Wu, what's the matter?"
"I borrowed the book my sister-in-law asked for. You can take it back."
"Book?"
Li Anle has almost forgotten this incident. He has been teased and teased in the past few days, which has made him less interested in going to school. As for what his mother taught him at night, there is no trace.
"Thank you Uncle Wu."
There were quite a few, about ten books. Li Anle glanced at the blank cover. One book of poems and quotations seemed to be Chinese. Li Anle looked at the other books, which included arithmetic and basic agriculture.
"These textbooks are really interesting."
Li Anle couldn't help but open the arithmetic book, wanting to see the difficulty of primary school mathematics at this time, but he didn't expect the arithmetic questions to be so interesting at this time. The question was preceded by a quotation, and the questions that followed were quite interesting.
"Uncle Wu, I'm going back."
"Go ahead."
When he got home, Li Anle handed the book to his mother. Shi Qin took the book and opened the arithmetic textbook that Li Anle was looking at just now. His eyes were strange, especially when he saw the words "capitalist and landlord exploitation".
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, I didn't expect your fifth uncle to borrow the book so quickly."
Shi Qinxin said that it was a good thing that she had kept her life a secret, otherwise she would have been in bad luck.
"Let me teach you to read first. It's not easy to learn to read. I told you it's even harder than doing farm work." Shi Qin shivered thinking about the previous literacy class. Fortunately, a group of educated young people came to teach on his behalf.
, otherwise you would have lost all your hair.
Shi Qin's scalp went numb when he thought of teaching people to read. It was too difficult. If he didn't prepare an ambush in advance, his stupid son might give up the job at any time.
