Du Zhicheng nodded and said: "I heard your teacher Miao say that he is a relatively lazy student with poor academic consciousness. If he doesn't listen to lectures and relies on self-study to get into the top ten, he is indeed very smart. If he is willing to work hard, If so, maybe we can compete with the elites from No. 1 Middle School.”
Zhang Yongsheng sighed: "It's just that this guy is too lazy. He just muddles through everything. It's a waste of talent. In fact, there are many such people in our school. In addition to Tian Sheng's talent in learning, many of them are talented in painting, dancing, and sports. Talent, if developed, will also be the elite of society.”
Du Zhicheng nodded and said with a smile: "That's why I carried out education reform in No. 2 Middle School and insisted on setting up art and sports classes so that they can have the opportunity to go to a suitable university based on their talents. It can also be regarded as cultivating talents for the country. Judging from the results of the last semester , our No. 2 Middle School can develop well in this aspect in the future." Zhang Yongsheng agreed very much with this: "What Bai Zhixuan and I agree with most is your point of view, knowing what the essence of education is. Prison-style management like No. 1 Middle School , we have long been bored with it. It will only make students feel tired of learning, and eventually their talents will be buried."
Du Zhicheng shook his head and said: "You are really good at teaching, and you actually talk about the essence of education in front of me. I have taught for half my life, but I can't say that I have grasped the essence of education."
Zhang Yongsheng said confidently: "I am not qualified to talk about the nature of education. But Bai Zhixuan's grandfather is the old principal of No. 1 Middle School. He is always qualified to talk, right? Bai Zhixuan said that his grandfather believes that the essence of education is to cultivate people. Talent, teach students in accordance with their aptitude, rather than engaging in assembly line production like No. 1 Middle School.”
When Du Zhicheng heard this, his face immediately became serious: "What did Teacher Bai say? He is a famous educator in our county, and his words must have profound truth."
Zhang Yongsheng shook his head and said: "I can't say for sure. Anyway, it is the concept of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and giving full play to talents. In his later years, he compiled some manuscript notes, which have not been published. They are all in the old house of No. 1 Middle School. When Bai Zhixuan comes back, I can Ask her to come over to you."
Du Zhicheng rubbed his hands and said, "That's great. I must read Teacher Bai's masterpiece seriously. When talking about education in Yunshan, there is no one else but Teacher Bai."
While Du Zhicheng was having a good conversation, Zhang Yongsheng asked tentatively: "Uncle Du, can Lao Jia stop rectifying the school style and school discipline? There are huge objections from below. In addition to us students who can't stand it, teachers and parents also have objections. Parents, in particular, feel that the burden has increased a lot out of thin air.”
Du Zhicheng shook his head and said: "This is a task assigned by the Education Bureau. It is not something I can decide. You can just bear with it for the time being. Please help me collect the following objections, especially those from the students' parents. The Education Bureau will come after a while If people visit and comment, they can bring it up for discussion when the time comes.”
Zhang Yongsheng felt a little depressed, and it looked like he had to hold it in for a while. He thought for a while and said, "Uncle Du, have you heard of a rumor? Regarding what happened to Lao Jia at Hegang Middle School, is that true? Listen? It was said that the woman was pregnant, and Lao Jia also lost a lot of money."
Du Zhicheng's expression changed, and he returned to normal in an instant, and said: "Where did you hear this? Don't talk about this kind of thing. You will be held legally responsible for spreading rumors. You will be eighteen years old after graduating from high school. You have to learn to think like an adult and stop being like a child who listens to the wind and rain."
Zhang Yongsheng observed the words and knew instantly that this was probably true, and explained: "I am not just hearing this. My mother is from Hegang, and my relatives there told me. I also find it unbelievable, how can such a person without teacher ethics... Can I be sent as the dean?"
Du Zhicheng stared at Zhang Yongsheng and said seriously: "You can't talk about this matter. It will cause big trouble. Who else knows about this matter besides you?"
Zhang Yongsheng quickly shook his head and said: "No, I just asked on the phone and didn't tell anyone else. Don't worry, I will definitely keep this matter secret and will not talk nonsense."
"It's fine if it's not spread out. If it really causes big trouble, it won't be good for you or the school." Du Zhicheng took a long breath and warned: "Remember, no matter what Jia Zhiguo has done before, he is now Dean of Students. You can't confront him. Don't be impulsive when things happen, and be patient if you can."
Zhang Yongsheng nodded and said: "I'll try to be patient. As long as he doesn't bully others, I won't cause trouble for him. But I didn't give him face on stage today because I was afraid that he would find trouble in the future."
Du Zhicheng sighed: "You are really troublesome. I'll talk to him about this again, so don't be angry with him. Just fulfill your responsibilities as a student. As long as you don't violate school rules and disciplines, he won't do anything to you." There's no way. If he really messes around, I won't just watch."
Zhang Yongsheng smiled and said: "Okay, Uncle Du, I will feel relieved. If everything is okay, I won't disturb you. Let's go to class first?"
Du Zhicheng nodded and said, "Go ahead and let me know if you have anything to do in the future. Don't worry about it alone. In addition, you should quickly implement Chen Li's matter. I will make arrangements after you confirm it."
Zhang Yongsheng patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry about Chen Li. I will go find her at noon and get back to you in the afternoon. We have a good relationship, and she will definitely give me face."
After leaving Du Zhicheng's office, Zhang Yongsheng returned to the classroom. The first class was almost over at this time, and everyone was murmuring in their hearts when they saw him coming back with a normal expression. Zhang Yongsheng's confrontation with Jia Zhiguo in the morning meeting was seen by all the teachers and students in the school, and they all disliked him.
Although Zhang Yongsheng always made sense, it was still easy for Jia Zhiguo to use his power to deal with him because of his overwhelming power. But looking at Zhang Yongsheng's face, he didn't seem to be wearing small shoes. Everyone started talking secretly, and the discipline in the classroom could no longer be maintained.
Zhang Yongsheng returned to his seat, and Liu Wei next to him asked him secretly: "How was it? What did Principal Du say?"
Zhang Yongsheng shook his head slightly and whispered: "It's okay, everything is OK! Let's go to class first and talk about it after class."
Classroom discipline calmed down after class monitor Li Yuanyuan took the initiative, and everyone wanted to continue class. But the students were all a little distracted and couldn't concentrate at all. They were all curious about what Zhang Yongsheng encountered. The teacher didn't care about this and continued to follow the instructions for the rest of the class time.
The morning classes went as usual. Although Jia Zhiguo announced at the morning meeting that he would start to rectify the school style and discipline, the teachers and students did not take it to heart. What it was like before is still the same now. Zhang Yongsheng and others responded to the ever-changing situation by remaining unchanged. They just remained vigilant and did not make specific changes.
After school at noon, Zhang Yongsheng quickly found Lin Jingye's noodle shop while riding his bicycle. He wanted to tell Chen Li the news as soon as possible. This is good news for Chen Li. If she can get a sum of money from No. 2 Middle School as a subsidy, her family's financial pressure will be greatly reduced.
