Almighty substitute teacher

Chapter 55 The Young Man Looks Good
After chatting for a few words and parting from President Wu, Yang Zhengdong thought about going to the dormitory.

The dormitory of this vocational education center is not a building, but a row of tile-roofed houses. There are dozens of rooms in a row of red bricks and blue tiles. Each room can accommodate about ten students. It is a relatively primitive dormitory.

There are more than a dozen rows of such houses. In this era, there are more male dormitories than female dormitories, which is just the opposite of the situation on Earth in the 21st century.

Needless to say, the reason comes from patriarchal thinking, and the less developed the region, the more serious this thinking is.

I feel that sooner or later the girl is from another family. Most people feel that it is too much money to raise a daughter. It is better to earn more money for the family while at home and go to school with a girl. What is the use?
The Vocational Education Center was established in the 50s. At that time, this situation was more common, so when planning the dormitory, it was planned that there were more men than women.

The entire dormitory area is in a corner of the campus. There is a general entrance for the boys' area, and a general entrance for the girls' area. Uncle Wang is in charge of this entrance for the boys' area.

Uncle Wang's name is no longer available to test, except for himself, maybe even the principal may not know it.

This Uncle Wang is a man of the day in the school, an evergreen tree in the vocational education center, and has stayed here since the establishment of the school as a dormitory supervisor.

For more than 30 years, no matter the situation changes or the "change of dynasty", Uncle Wang has always sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, sticking to the small concierge and watching the common people with a smile.

The Vocational Education Center jokingly called it "the flowing vocational school, the iron king".

Uncle Wang looks to be in his seventies. Every day, he sits in the hut, turns on the radio, plays Yuzhou local dramas, and takes a sip of white wine every now and then. It has been like this for decades.

Speaking of which, Yang Zhengdong and Uncle Wang don't have much contact with each other on weekdays. One student and one dormitory supervisor. If discipline is observed, no one may remember who is like three years later. The two met because of the "little witch" Zhu Ya.

Zhu Ya is the child of an employee of the Vocational Education Center, and she is very familiar with everyone in the Vocational Education Center, but she can't help but cause trouble.

In Yang Zhengdong's first year of school, this girl came to play with him, and the two of them watched people play on the court, and they had a conflict with someone from another school who came to play.

This girl had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and directly scolded a group of young men, regardless of their size, and wanted to beat them like a mad cow.

Naturally, Yang Zhengdong couldn't watch them fight, so he rushed up alone, and seven or eight strong young men started fighting, retreating to the dormitory while fighting, Wang Xiaoya found Uncle Wang.

This old man was so fierce, he knocked on the big iron basin and yelled: "Everyone who is a man should come out, and I will be responsible for killing people. If you don't come out, you won't be able to live here in the future."

Then, more than 200 boys came out of the boys' dormitory, carrying stool legs, iron pipes, and washbasins, some of them were shirtless and wearing underwear, and beat them from the dormitory to the outside of the school.

At that time, the leader was this Uncle Wang, holding a knife for eating watermelon in his hand. His vigorous aura could not tell that he was an old man in his 60s, but he looked like an old "young and Dangerous boy"!
That day, Uncle Wang led people to chase them for four or five miles, and drove them directly to the school of those people, and blocked the door and scolded them before it was over.

During that battle, the Vocational Education Center became famous throughout the county, and everyone knew that this fierce old man was honored as the "hands-off man" of the Vocational Education Center.

In the future, anyone who came from other schools would have to worry about it, for fear of offending the old man and calling a group of students to "knock people".

Of course, under the introduction of the "Little Witch", Yang Zhengdong became acquainted with Uncle Wang from then on, which can be regarded as fate.

When I walked to the door of the dormitory area, I saw through the glass that the old man was sitting on a chair, listening to a play on the radio, and beating time with the music inside. His eyebrows were long, like an old birthday star.

Uncle Wang looked obviously old, and Yang Zhengdong felt a little sad in his heart.

Thinking about the heroic wind that chased for several miles with shirtless back, it is basically invisible, only the face that has gone through vicissitudes is left.

Maybe it's because he doesn't accept his old age, the old man has always shaved his hair, at least he won't let people see his gray hair.

"Uncle Wang, are you listening to an opera again?"

Yang Zhengdong didn't say hello, he opened the door and walked into the hut, sat on the bed and said with a smile.

"Huh? Hey! You are Xiaodong? Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that little lunatic say that you are going back to the village to be a teacher?"

"Little lunatic" is Zhu Ya's name in the old man's mouth.

"Yeah, I went back to the village! I also learned to be a teacher, and it happened that the village needed a teacher, so I went back. How is this period? Are you healthy?"

Yang Zhengdong chatted with the old man in dialect, but after a few words he found that the old man was really old.

At least his ears are not very sharp, he has to say a lot of words out loud, and some of them have to be said two or three times before he can hear clearly.

After chatting for a while, Uncle Wang accompanied Yang Zhengdong back to the dormitory to get the bedding. There was no one in the dormitory. Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar dormitory, although it was only a month, it seemed like many years had passed.

Uncle Wang was talking by himself, the students have all gone for internships, the number of students has decreased in the past two years, and after the summer vacation, newcomers have moved in to the dormitory, etc.

Yang Zhengdong smiled and listened to him talking, knowing that the old man was recalling the past. It is said that the old man has stuck to this post for more than 30 years and has never had any problems, and he has never asked for a day off when the students are still there.

The feeling for this school, this area, and these students is something that he, a teacher now, may not be able to understand.

Yang Zhengdong sometimes thinks, although Uncle Wang is not a teacher's profession, he is still exercising the teacher's duties and possessing the teacher's belief, right?

After taking the quilt and chatting with the old man, Yang Zhengdong returned to Lao Zhu's house. Lao Zhu was drinking tea on the sofa, and Teacher Qian prepared breakfast for them.

"This is? You took out the dormitory quilt?"

Old Zhu saw Yang Zhengdong carrying the fertilizer bag, and thought of the scene when this kid was in the cafeteria, eating a big pot of vegetables with their little devil in full swing. At that time, this fertilizer bag was placed next to him.

"Yes, I ran into Principal Wu during morning exercises. He said that he had already gone to practice, and the bedding should not get wet, so I went to the dormitory to get it!"

Yang Zhengdong replied with a smile.

"Well, you have indeed gone to the dormitory for internships, and basically you have graduated. When you come back again, you will only have to take graduation photos and get your graduation certificate."

Lao Zhu took a sip of his tea, sighed and said, "Year after year goes by so fast, it seems like you just entered school the day before yesterday, and you will graduate in a blink of an eye."

Yang Zhengdong also felt a little bit embarrassed. Although the two generations have experienced this kind of parting, every time the parting is about to come, he still feels very uncomfortable, and the atmosphere is a little silent for a while.

"Have you seen old man Wang?"

Old Zhu probably also felt that the atmosphere was made a bit heavy by him, so he changed the subject with a smile and asked.

"See you, chatted for a while, the old man feels a lot older!"

"Yeah, people are in their 70s, their eyes are blurred, their ears are deaf, and their bodies are not as good as before.

A few days ago, he was seriously ill, and the school leader wanted him to retire to take care of his life, so the old man went to the principal and had a big fight over it! "

Old Zhu said with a sigh.

"Why is that? The old man is so old, it's a good thing to retire!"

Yang Zhengdong asked puzzledly.

"Why else? Old man Wang is an old revolutionary. He came to school after leaving the army. It has been almost 40 years since the first class. He has no children and has long regarded the school as his home."

"The last centralized physical examination found a lot of problems in his body, and there are signs of dementia. The school has studied it a long time ago. The school is here to give the old man a pension. He wants him to take advantage of the last period of time to rest and rest. It’s a good time to live.”

"It's just that he doesn't want to leave. The principal and all the teachers know the reason. When the school's staff dormitory was built, a set was specially reserved for him as a nursing home. But he told the principal that he likes the students I am willing to watch them, I am not used to living in a big house, so I gave it to the young teacher, and I chose the little concierge at the door of the dormitory!"

"Uncle Wang, you are so pure! I just want to watch you grow up one by one, and it may be the last thought of the old man. In the end, the school leaders couldn't help but agree, let him stay in the small gatehouse, can you When is it, what time is it?"

When Lao Zhu said the last time, his voice became low involuntarily.

Yang Zhengdong felt very uncomfortable. Uncle Wang's life was very ordinary, but in his heart, what the old man did was not ordinary at all.

I still vaguely remember that if someone forgets to collect their clothes in the rain, someone will always help them fold them and put them in the guard room; Will always be reminded when passing the cabin.

In the seemingly harsh words, there is always a different kind of concern; the fierce appearance can't hide a kind and soft heart.

Being in Wenyuan, with a sense of belonging in his heart, Yang Zhengdong was suddenly moved. Perhaps this is the true realm of a teacher?

Just like the old man who has been teaching in the countryside for nearly 40 years, they should all be the same kind of people, and they may all have a kind of self-persistence.

In the morning, Yang Zhengdong tried his best to calm down his thoughts, and gave Zhu Ya two sets of test questions for Wen Zong and Li Zong. The angry "little witch" wanted to eat him.

Because he was going to see Mr. Zhao off at noon, Yang Zhengdong bid farewell to Mr. Zhu's family in a hurry, took a three-wheeler and headed for the station. He was almost late when he arrived.

When Mr. Zhao saw Yang Zhengdong coming, he happily called him over, patted several manuscripts that he took away, and explained to him.

In particular, the publishing house attached great importance to the supplementary materials, and asked them to form a team to speed up the review. After passing the review, the publishing house helped Yang Zhengdong apply for a book number, which can be regarded as a return to the Chinese pinyin and dictionary.

Tong Yaojia pulled her grandfather reluctantly to say goodbye, and standing beside Tong's father was a fair-skinned woman who looked about 30 years old, and she was whispering to Tong's father, looking at Yang Zhengdong from time to time.

"Old boy, this is the Yang Zhengdong that my father and daughter talk about, right? The young man looks good? How could he be as you said!"
