"Teacher Zhou, what's on your desk?" Zhang Gou'er finally picked up the leaves and brought them next to Zhou Xiaozhou's small desk.

Zhou Xiaozhou looked at his little action and laughed secretly: "Yeah, just some school supplies."

No! Zhang Gou'er was shocked. He squatted beside Zhou Xiaozhou, hoping that Zhou Xiaozhou could reveal some other information.

But Zhou Xiaozhou just didn't fulfill his wish and called him to watch, little Zhang Xiaoya escape from prison.

Zhang Gou'er hurried over to retrieve his sister, then sat down in front of Zhou Xiaozhou's small table. He secretly made up his mind that he would make a small table for himself when he returned home today.

Zhou Xiaozhou cleared his throat and started a new day of teaching.

But things were not going well. There was a new student who did not come to class but came to make up for the good things others got yesterday because he was jealous.

"Master, when are we going to have that outdoor class?"

This was the sixth, seventh, and eighth time Zhou Xiaozhou had heard the question, all of which were requests for outdoor classes. In fact, he didn't want to take any outdoor classes! He just saw that the group of children who came to the school yesterday had gained something, so he wanted to go with them and see if he could get some food.

In fact, Zhou Xiaozhou didn't blame the children. They were making a fuss because they had no food. However, this particularly affected the order of her class.

Zhou Xiaozhou had no choice but to explain to them: "This is a school, a place for learning calligraphy. Sometimes we have outdoor classes once a day, and sometimes we don't have any for several days."

After hearing this, several children stood up and ran away. It seemed that the school was not that attractive to them, and Zhou Xiaozhou did not force them.

A few of the remaining children were still hesitating. Zhou Xiaozhou said nothing more. She took out the small blackboard that she had placed here last night and placed it on the stone that was moved in front. She thought that she would have to go back and ask them to prepare a shelf specifically for the blackboard. It was not a good idea to always place it against the wall on the stone. Or nail the blackboard to the wall. Zhou Xiaozhou thought that there was no nail here to nail it firmly.

In this class, Zhou Xiaozhou continued to teach some commonly used radicals and also taught a few simple characters, such as "天, 地, 山, 田, 火, 木" and so on.

Worried that the children wouldn’t be able to remember if he taught too much, Zhou Xiaozhou would first teach a few simple ones to see what the children’s level of understanding was and whether their memory was strong.

Wu Sanmei really gave her the biggest surprise and was the first to remember what she had just taught. Zhou Xiaozhou now asked Wu Sanmei to stay next to the small table that served as a podium and act as Zhou Xiaozhou's teaching assistant.

Wu Xiaobao, who had another small table, was envied by everyone. His chin was raised to the sky and his back was straight. Moreover, with a small table and a small wooden board, it seemed more convenient for him to write. The other children could only envy him.

Of course, this does not include little Zhao Xiaoer. He and his dog occupied Wu Sanmei's small desk. He made Heibaoer glare at anyone who wanted to get close to him, which made Zhou Xiaozhou so angry that he wanted to throw him out.

Zhao Danniu didn't come this morning, so no one could control him. But Wu Sanmei took good care of this kid.

"Teacher, we have finished learning." A child stood up and said loudly to Zhou Xiaozhou.

Then he glanced at the people behind him and continued, "Can we go to outdoor class now? Where are we going today?"

Sure enough, Zhou Xiaozhou just saw these little guys flirting with each other. It seems that delicious food is more powerful. Her class is not attractive at all.

Zhou Xiaozhou stood in front of the podium and said the same thing as before: "We may not have outdoor classes today."

Several little kids ran out of the school angrily.

Zhou Xiaozhou looked at the child's back as he ran away, with some indescribable emotions brewing in his heart.

Some people in the school were still affected, and some children started to not write on the wooden board seriously and looked around.

Zhou Xiaozhou decided to do some outdoor sports first.

Sure enough, when they heard that they could go out and play, the children's spirits became high again. A group of them laughed and joked in the open space outside the school, twisting left and right and starting to do the stretching exercises created by Zhou Xiaozhou.

"One, two, three, four. Two, two, three, four. Three, two, three, four, do it again." Zhou Xiaozhou shouted the slogan, looking around and listening carefully.

A little girl was passing by the school carrying a large backpack that was taller than her. The little girl stopped and watched them happily doing outdoor sports, her eyes full of envy.

Zhou Xiaozhou knew her. She was the girl named Chunhua who was slapped and dragged away yesterday. Zhou Xiaozhou wanted to ask her to come with him, but before she could open her mouth, the girl left on her own.

Seeing Yu Yu walking alone with the big backpack blocking the way, Zhou Xiaozhou felt really bad. What was going on?

She wanted to help her, but didn't know where to start.

Wu Sanmei followed her line of sight and looked back. She didn't see anyone, but she saw a huge backpack disappearing into the flat plain on the way to the gourd's belly.

Wu Sanmei recognized this big backpack, it was from Uncle Yu. When Uncle Yu ordered a backpack from Uncle Chen, he specially made this big backpack, saying that with this backpack, one trip would be equivalent to two trips for others. In fact, he just wanted to save a few more cents.

Uncle Chen only charged six coins to make a backpack, and two backpacks cost twelve coins, but Uncle Yu begged Uncle Chen to make it higher for free. Such a large backpack half the height of a person would be difficult for an adult to carry, so he did not consider whether Yu Chunhua, with her small body, could carry such a large backpack.

But day after day, year after year, Chunhua finally carried such a big backpack. Wu Sanmei saw her trembling figure on the mountain path many times. She was a child, she had the will but not the ability.

Sometimes, you can empathize with some things. Although her family never deprived her of food and drink, she was a girl after all, and was different from boys. Her brothers could work in the fields with their parents and eat more, and her younger brother also had to eat more as he was growing up. Only she could occasionally skimp on food.

When they came back from the fields together, the men stopped taking care of everything, and she still had to cook, sweep the yard, and wash clothes with her mother.

Sometimes Wu Sanmei wondered why she had to be born as a woman. It would be great if she were a man!

Zhou Xiaozhou shouted “seven, two, three, four, five, six, seven, stop”, and the morning exercises were completed.

The friends took some time off to relax, gathered in groups of three or four, and talked about the latest news.

If you ask who is the most popular person at the scene, it must be Wu Xiaobao. This kid must have secretly brought all the candies hidden at Zhang's place and is now distributing them all over the place.

Zhou Xiaozhou held his forehead with his hand, feeling a severe headache.
