Liao Yuan became interested: "This is very good. You can let this female teacher teach you some experience. Novel. "
"Yes, I also have this idea. I originally planned to go and learn from experience in the past two days, but Mr. Liao, you are here..."
Liao Yuan nodded and suddenly asked: "Is Shuanghe Village far from here?"
Teacher Liu was stunned for a moment and said, "It's not far. It's half an hour's walk or ten minutes' ride by bike."
When Liao Yuan heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look."
"Hey, Mr. Liao, Mr. Liao! It's not too late to go after dinner!"
…
Shuanghe Village.
Hu Lina counted the number of people in the classroom and found that the student Cheng Dandan did not come to class, so she asked: "Does anyone know what happened to Cheng Dandan? Why doesn't he come to class?"
"Teacher, Cheng Dandan's father is sick! Dandan is taking care of her father!"
Hu Lina nodded.
After school ended at noon, Hu Lina went to Cheng Dandan's house for a home visit according to the address given by the village chief.
This is a typical Miao village-style wooden house with two floors. It looks quite old and obviously has some history.
Hu Lina checked the address, climbed to the second floor, and knocked on the door: "Dandan, Dandan, are you at home?"
"Strange, the address is correct!"
Hu Lina said nahan.
Just then, the door opened.
Hu Lina looked happy and was about to say something, but when she saw the person opening the door, she swallowed her words.
This is a disabled man who is missing half of his leg. His beard has not been shaved for who knows how many days. It is already one finger long. It is also stained with some camellia oil. He looks very dirty. At this time, the other party is using a fierce
He stared at Hu Lina and said nothing.
"Hello, I am Cheng Dandan's teacher. You should be Dandan's father, right?" Hu Lina asked cautiously.
The disabled man glanced at Hu Lina, coughed hard twice, his chapped lips wriggled slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "You are the new teacher Hu in the village, right? Come in and sit down!"
Hu Lina pursed her lips.
In fact, she learned about the disabled man from the village chief.
His name is Cheng Hai. When he was young, he worked outside in an artificial field. In an accident, his leg was broken by a machine. At that time, migrant workers were not as lucky as they are now, so Cheng Hai lost a leg in his life, but only got a few dollars.
Thousands of dollars in compensation.
Because his leg was broken and he lost his labor force, Cheng Hai's wife also ran away, leaving only him and a daughter who was waiting for food.
It is not easy for such a person to be able to support his daughter and raise her daughter up.
"It's like this. Cheng Dandan didn't come to school today, and she didn't ask for leave from me in advance. I thought I was going to pay a home visit to the children, so I came here. I'd like to apologize for disturbing you."
Hu Lina said politely, taking a look around the room.
The dark wooden house, which seemed to be unable to let in any light, was filled with a damp smell.
Several sacks containing grain were piled haphazardly in the corner.
There is also a thick rope hanging on the beam, I don't know what it is for.
At this time, the door was opened, the mountain wind was blowing, and the thick rope was swaying, which was quite strange.
Hu Lina looked away and sighed inwardly.
Destitute.
Really penniless.
Cheng Hai leaned on crutches, took out a cup, and poured a cup of oil tea for Hu Lina: "How is Dandan studying?"
Hu Lina took the tea cup, thanked her, and then smiled and said: "Dandan studies very hard. She is the smartest student in our class. When I quiz her on questions, I often draw inferences. I like her the most."
Oh, by the way, I also brought gifts to the students during this home visit, and they are all local specialties from my hometown."
As she said that, Hu Lina took out two packages of sesame candy sticks and placed them on the table: "These are called sesame candy sticks. They are very sweet and the children like them very much."
"You're welcome, just sign here, every one of my students will give it to me!"
Hu Lina said with a smile on her face: "I have always been fair and will not care about one thing or the other!"
Cheng Hai stood there awkwardly, staring at the pen on the table. After a while, he said: "Teacher Hu, I can move heavy things, but I don't have the strength to pick up this pen."
Hu Lina was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the other party couldn't write.
She quickly said: "Ah, I'm sorry, it doesn't matter if you don't sign."
After finishing speaking, she deliberately changed the subject, "By the way, where is Dandan? Why haven't you seen her?"
Cheng Hai said: "Dandan went to the mountains to collect herbs. When she comes back, I will let her go to class."
After hearing this, Hu Lina stood up and said: "Okay, Mr. Cheng, I hope you will support Dandan. Dandan is a very smart child. Her future should not just be in this remote mountain village. The outside world is very exciting, and
, there are many beautiful things in this world waiting for children to discover! Now we live in a very good country, and the country will not treat every citizen badly. Many welfare systems have certain guarantees, such as the subsistence allowance system.
, you can receive relief funds as long as you apply..."
Cheng Hai listened quietly and looked self-deprecating unconsciously.
Soon after, he saw Hu Lina walking away, then threw away the crutches, limped to the corner, opened one of the sacks, and revealed a frightened Cheng Dandan.
Cheng Hai took out the hemp rope that blocked his daughter's mouth.
"Abba, Abba!"
Cheng Dandan cried: "I know I was wrong, I will cook on time, Dad, please spare me! Please, please go around me, I won't go to school, Dad, Dad!"
Cheng Hai looked at Cheng Dandan, then went to get a basin of water and washed Cheng Dandan's face with his own hands.
Cheng Dandan was obviously frightened and trembling all over.
"Dandan."
Cheng Hai wiped his daughter's face and said, "Go to school well."
Cheng Dandan cried again: "I won't go to school anymore, Dad, I won't go to school anymore!"
"listen!"
Cheng Hai scolded: "Going to school is the only way out, you know?"
Cheng Dandan choked up and said: "Dad, I went to school and no one cooked for you."
Cheng Haidao: "You won't be allowed to cook in the future."
Cheng Dandan did not dare to look at his father. He lowered his head and said nothing while crying.
"My father is a loser, and you have grown up. My father cannot drag you down."
Cheng Hai said slowly: "The future life depends on you, you know?"
Cheng Dandan didn't know what dad meant, so he just nodded hastily.
Cheng Hai smiled and picked up the two packs of sesame candies, "Teacher Hu is a good person. You must study hard with her in the future and strive to be a person like Teacher Hu. Do you understand?"
Cheng Dandan nodded again.
Cheng Hai handed two packs of sesame candies to Cheng Dandan: "Eat it, I'll go out and you'll go to school in the afternoon, you know?"
Cheng Dandan took the Ma Jian Candy and said, "I got it!"
Cheng Hai hummed, picked up the crutches again, pushed open the wooden door, looked back at his shivering daughter hiding in the corner, walked down the stairs, and never came back.
