Chapter 45 Township Central Primary School

The biggest change after Wenqin received this award was that she got a job as a substitute mathematics teacher in the township central primary school.

No more worries about centimeters.

But for Xie Guiqiu, it was not a good thing.

After all, the two sisters-in-law were lazy together before, and the villagers all talked about Wen Qin, but now her sister-in-law has become a heroine, so how can she hold the heroine back?

It is bound to work hard.

So, under Jie Guiqiu's resentful gaze, Wen Qin rode his bicycle to the elementary school to work.

The so-called central primary school is actually just three rows of bungalows, the playground is all dirt, and there is not even a piece of coal to be seen.

Moreover, Jiang County has a lot of water, and this school is surrounded by water. To get there, one has to walk on a floating bridge built by boats.

Wenqin regretted her decision as soon as she arrived at the place, because it was not far from her home on foot, but she was a little scared to ride a bicycle there.

The surrounding was full of laughing students, completely ignoring the wobbly floating bridge and running over it as if it were flat ground. She was the only one standing there awkwardly, pushing her bicycle.

As the bell was about to ring for class, Wen Qin was still wondering whether to lock her bike on the riverside when a young man ran over. Just as he was about to run onto the bridge, he suddenly stopped and said, "Lady, do you need any help?"

Wen Qin smiled a little embarrassedly: "Hello, I'm a new substitute teacher. It's my first time walking on this kind of bridge, so I'm a little afraid."

After saying that, he felt something was wrong, so he immediately explained: "I'm a little afraid to push this bike. Do you know where I can store bicycles nearby?"

Nowadays, bicycles are super large items, so it is never too careful. It is normal for Wenqin to be so careful.

As a result, the young man immediately retracted his foot that had already stepped onto the bridge: "Hey? New substitute teacher, which grade do you teach? What class do you teach? I teach physical education, and I teach all the students in the school."

Then he glanced at Wen Qin's embarrassed look and scratched the back of his head: "It's definitely not okay to leave the bicycle outside. It's such a big thing. I'll carry it over for you. Just follow me. This bridge has just been repaired, it's stable."

After saying that, he picked up the bicycle and strode to the other side.

Wen Qin hurriedly trotted after them, but even so, she was only halfway there when they reached the other side.

What a decisive PE teacher.

"Thank you. I wonder what this comrade's name is." The physical education teacher just said a lot of things but didn't say his own name. Wen Qin found it a little funny.

"Oh, right, right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Shi Xiuqi. My father gave me this name. He said it means to cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country and bring peace to the world. It's a pity that I didn't choose the literary path, ahahahaha."

Wen Qin thought the young man was quite interesting. Just as she was about to ask him how to get to the principal's office, she heard an old man ringing the bell hanging on a crooked tree by the river.

The bell rang melodiously, and the whole school became restless.

Shi Xiuqi parked his bike almost immediately: "It's time for exercise. I'm leaving first."

Just like a rabbit, he ran away.

This time, without the bicycle and floating bridge to hold him back, Wen Qin finally understood why this guy was a physical education teacher.

It looks like it's running really fast.

Wen Qin pushed the bike to the edge of the school's wall and locked it. She saw students filing out of the classrooms and lining up on the playground. The electric loudspeaker on the crooked tree started playing the nostalgic radio gymnastics music.

She could no longer remember the movements, so she stood by and watched the teachers and students in the school do it, silently imitating them. After the students returned to the classroom, she slowly went to the principal's office.

After looking around, I only found two teachers' offices. Each teacher was very busy, and there were also students coming to hand in their homework.

Wen Qin stood at the office door for a long time and didn't feel like going in.

Then the bell rang again, and the teachers grabbed the textbooks and lesson plans on the table and ran out one by one.

In an instant the office was empty.

The old man who had just rung the bell walked over slowly with his hands behind his back.

"Who is this little girl looking for?" The old man asked when he saw Wen Qin peeking at the office door.

Wen Qin quickly stood up and said, "Hello, old man. May I ask where the principal's office is? I'm a new substitute teacher and I'm here to report today."

The old man suddenly realized: "Oh, you are the heroine."

After saying that, he looked Wen Qin up and down and said, "I didn't expect that little girl is so brave. Come with me."

Wen Qin followed the old man inside in a daze.

The so-called office looked like a classroom divided into two rooms, with a small door in the middle. The old man took Wen Qin to the innermost seat and said, "You will sit here from now on."

There were math textbooks on the table, covering grades one to five, all complete but not very new. There was a picture of a little turtle on the cover of the fourth grade textbook.

Wen Qin then remembered that she still had five years of elementary school to go.

"As you can see, there is a shortage of teachers. Most of the time, one teacher teaches several grades and classes. Currently, there is no one to teach third and fourth grade math. You can try teaching for two days. If it doesn't work, we can switch."

Wen Qin quickly took out her third and fourth grade math books.

The old man looked at her with satisfaction and nodded: "Let's go, I'll take you around the classroom first."

There are two classes in each grade, but neither is actually full.

Firstly, each production brigade basically has its own village primary school. Secondly, it is now the spring ploughing period and many older children are at home helping out, so there are fewer students in grades four and five, and some in grade three are also on leave.

Grades three and four are in a row of bungalows, with four classrooms in one building.

This time there were teachers teaching in two classrooms, and they were Chinese.

There was no one in the classroom and the door was closed. The old man explained that there were too many children in the fourth grade who had asked for leave, so they were now combined into one classroom.

There is no teacher in Class 2 of Grade now, and everyone is studying on their own. However, the self-study nowadays is not as intense as in later generations. Anyway, when Wen Qin entered the room, the classroom was not very quiet. Some students were whispering to each other, some were sleeping, and so on. Perhaps they were afraid of disturbing other classes by making noise, so the noise was not very loud.

When the children saw the old man come in, they all stood up immediately and poked each other to remind those who didn't see him: "Hurry up, Principal Dong is here."

Although Wen Qin guessed that the old man was the principal, she only found out now that the principal's surname was Dong.

When the classroom became quiet, the sound of students reciting a text from next door could be heard from time to time.

Although Wen Qin was a homebody, she was not too nervous about these little kids. Then she heard Principal Dong cough twice: "This is Wen Qin, the new substitute teacher in the school. Teacher Wen will teach you math from now on. Come on, applaud."

So the sound of applause in the classroom drowned out the sound of reciting in the next room...
