Lin Nianhe swore that when she asked Zhao Zhuangshi if he would study hard, she was not retaliating against him for jumping over the wall before, nor was she trying to embarrass him.
She was just a small revenge for his resolute rejection after hearing that the teacher was her.
That's all.
Zhao Zhuangshi was afraid of teachers when he was in school. Now that there is a principal sitting behind him, he gets scared just thinking about it.
He was about to cry but didn't know how to answer Lin Nianhe's question.
Lin Nianhe could feel his resentment without looking at his expression. His thoughts were clear and his mind was clear in an instant.
She did not embarrass him any more, and turned to Principal Wu and said, "Look, the villagers have to go to work and do farm work, run their homes and take care of their families. They have exhausted all their efforts to make a living, and then let them go to literacy classes at night. I believe most of them will People are reluctant, and even if we force them to go, the learning effect will not be good.”
Principal Wu has been an educator for half his life, what does he not understand?
She was silent and subconsciously rubbed her shoulders.
Education is a big thing, a big thing related to the future.
But in such an environment, there was too little she could do.
After a long time, she let out a long sigh.
The wind was a bit strong, and she couldn't help coughing a few more times.
Lin Nianhe reached out and held her hands that were particularly rough from holding chalk all the time and said, "Principal Wu, don't worry, let me try."
After she said this, Principal Wu's eyes lit up, and Zhao Zhuangshi suddenly felt that all the joints in his body were stiff and it was difficult to move.
Lin Nianhe: "Zhao Zhuangshi, is it tiring to drive the cattle cart?"
Zhao Zhuangshi was agitated and did not dare to look back. He asked tremblingly: "You, you, you... what do you want to do?"
Could this woman be trying to persuade her to start with herself?
Now he has adapted to working every day. He can argue with Uncle Guan whenever he has nothing to do, and his life is not as difficult as before.
But after a busy day, he has to sit in the classroom like a little kid and learn to read? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Lin Nianhe smiled slightly, confident of winning: "Nothing, I just saw a tractor delivering bricks before. I heard that their tractor drivers can rest when they don't have tasks, and they also get salary and various tickets every month... It sounds true. It’s easier than driving an ox cart.”
Lin Nianhe's words were pure nonsense, and he was fooling Zhao Zhuang into thinking that he was really uneducated.
Today's tractors are all hand-cranked, which is definitely not easy to drive. Moreover, there is only one tractor in their commune. In addition to spring plowing and autumn harvest, they also have to transport things back and forth on weekdays... It is not easy to have a leisure time.
Zhao Zhuangshi was originally wary when talking to Lin Nianhe, but his thoughts unconsciously drifted to the tractor currently parked in the Shili Brigade.
He had seen it before, and the big iron lump was so majestic!
Especially when the tractor driver jumped out of the car, but... Zhao Zhuang was really uneducated and couldn't describe it.
Anyway, he felt at that time that if he jumped out of the tractor, he would not be kicked out of any little widow's house he went to in the future.
Zhao Zhuangshi thought about the little widow, then looked at the old scalper in front of him, curling his lips in disgust.
He felt that he could drive a tractor as long as someone taught him. His mother always said he was smart.
He also knows that he is smart, but he just doesn't like to study.
Zhao Zhuangshi subconsciously touched his pocket. For the sake of the little widow... no, for the tractor, he planned to inquire about it. He also wanted to learn!
The current tractor driver in the commune looks naive and stupid. He can learn how to do it. How could I be worse than him?
When you have learned the lesson, drive him away, and this honorable job will be his from now on.
Not leaving? Then give him a beating! If one meal is not enough, then two!
Lin Nianhe's faint voice came from the back seat: "But not everyone can drive this tractor. I heard that you not only need to learn to drive it, but you also need to be able to repair it. At the very least, you need to be able to read mechanical books... I heard It seems like you have to go to high school."
The small fire that had just been ignited in Zhao Zhuangshi's heart was extinguished by Duotou.
He opened his mouth and asked unconvinced: "Why? You can't drive a tractor if you haven't graduated from high school? Are you awesome after graduating from high school?"
The fish is hooked.
Lin Nianhe chuckled silently.
She replied: "Yeah, it's really cool to have gone to high school."
Zhao Zhuangshi: "..."
Lin Nianhe squinted his eyes and looked at the green hills, and said slowly: "If you don't read or read, even if I give you a book on how to repair a tractor, you won't be able to understand it no matter how clear it is. How could the commune want you?"
Zhao Zhuangshi: "..."
For the first time in his life, Comrade Zhao Zhuangshi was suppressed by someone based on his academic qualifications, and the pain of being uneducated was forced into his mouth.
He was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied, not convinced anywhere.
But he couldn't help but think, if he hadn't been playful and had finished high school, would he be able to drive a tractor and tease the little widows from all over the country now?
Lin Nianhe changed the topic and suddenly said to Principal Wu: "By the way, Principal Wu, I heard that as a teacher, you get a monthly subsidy of five yuan, and you can also get full work points, right?"
Principal Wu was originally paying attention to Zhao Zhuangshi's emotional changes, and wanted to take this opportunity to persuade him to study, but was suddenly interrupted by Lin Nianhe. She didn't quite understand why she didn't pursue the victory, so she could only nod: "Yes."
Zhao Zhuangshi suddenly turned his head and looked at Principal Wu in disbelief: "Why? Why can I just teach a kid to learn two Chinese characters and give him ten work points and pay back?"
five yuan!
He has never received this money since he was born!
Principal Wu was glared at by his scarlet eyes and subconsciously replied: "The treatment of private teachers is indeed not comparable to that of public teachers, but are we... really having difficulties?"
Zhao Zhuangshi breathed heavily.
"While you were running around and having fun outside, we were studying. While you were walking around the streets, we were writing. You don't know what I know."
Lin Nianhe crossed his legs, held his chin in one hand, and spoke slowly.
Of course she knew that academic qualifications should not be used to judge merit. There were countless people with high scores and low abilities, and there were also many big bosses without academic qualifications. But for today's children, studying is indeed the easiest way for them to get out of the mountains.
A degree may not get you anywhere, but it can get you blocked by a lot of doors.
Zhao Zhuangshi was unconvinced: "Then you still don't know what I know!"
Lin Nianhe couldn't possibly respond to his provocation and glanced at him: "Believe it or not, you can't even understand me scolding you."
Zhao Zhuangshi laughed angrily: "What? I still can't understand? Okay, you tell me, I'll listen! I still don't believe it!"
As a former village tyrant, Zhao Zhuangshi, who weighed 130 pounds, gave birth to a 129-pound child.
Although his mother didn't allow him to offend Lin Nianhe, the atmosphere had reached this point and it really couldn't be justified for him not to fight back.
This is about the dignity of his former village hegemon!
Moreover, isn't it just about swearing? He, Zhao Zhuangshi, is proficient in all kinds of curse words, as well as curse words that he doesn't understand?
Principal Wu looked at the two of them fighting like cocks, feeling suddenly nervous.
She was really afraid that Lin Nianhe would come out and recite a poem, and there would be problems if there were so many people coming and going.
Principal Wu raised his hand to stop her, but Lin Nianhe held her hand down first.
She looked at Zhao Zhuangshi with a bright smile.
