Small Shop Owner in the 1960s

After leaving work at noon, Xu Nannan went directly to Xu Jiansheng’s house to find Xu Ling without lunch.

They were still in the small single-room house originally divided, and the father and daughter lived in a spacious house. Xu Nannan usually helps Xu Ling prepare dresses, and occasionally buys some food for her, which makes her a lot more comfortable than when Li Jing was there.

When I arrived at the house, the door was closed and no one was seen.

Xu Nannan frowned. Where did he go if he didn't eat at noon?

She turned to look at the boiler room again. Sometimes Xu Jiansheng will put the food in the boiler room to heat up, and Xiaoling will also eat here. When I arrived at the boiler room, I only saw Xu Jiansheng with a haggard face eating wowotou, and I was surprised to see Xu Nannan coming.

Xu Nannan asked, "Where is Xiaoling?"

Xu Jiansheng put down the Wowotou in his hand and stood up, "She said she couldn't come back to eat in the morning. She asked me to take the money and food stamps and said she would eat outside."

Such a little kid is still eating outside.

Xu Nannan suddenly didn't know whether he should say Xu Jiansheng had a big heart, or whether Xu Ling had his own opinion.

She turned and walked out of the boiler room. Xu Jiansheng's lips moved, as if she wanted to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything. He sighed and sat on the small bench again, holding a dry wowotou, and took a bite for a long time.

In the school, a group of students wearing green military uniforms and red armbands are huddling around.

Xu Ling wore a hat and a canvas bag, and followed behind.

She is young and not tall, but she is not easy to bully when she looks at it. After looking for a few offices, but no teacher, the students simply went to the cafeteria to eat, and they were going to continue making trouble in the afternoon.

Several children walked with Xu Ling and touched Xu Ling's green military uniform, "Xu Ling, you bought this new dress."

Xu Ling straightened her back and said, "I bought it with the cloth ticket I saved."

"It's so good-looking, I will buy one later. Only by wearing this can people know who we are."

"Who shall we look for in the afternoon? These people were not honest before. What articles do they write? I look like a reactionary." A fat girl said.

Xu Ling wiped her nose, "Look whoever catches it. Those who let them always bully us before, and who do not do well in homework and beat us, are reactionaries."

"Yes, our family is so poor, my dad is still a worker, they still beat us."

"It's settled in the afternoon."

When the few people finished talking, they dispersed, ready to go home for dinner.

Watching everyone go, Xu Ling pulled her canvas bag, looked at the food stamps and money in it, pressed her mouth tightly, and went out to find a place to eat.

As soon as I walked out of the campus, I saw Teacher Zhou walking into the school with his head down and holding a book, obviously he was preparing for the afternoon class.

Teacher Zhou is Xu Ling's class teacher and Chinese teacher. She is usually the strictest.

Xu Ling was afraid of him before, but now she is not afraid, and she walks past him with her small waist.

"Student Xu Ling, why are you going home now. Haven't eaten yet." Teacher Zhou looked at her seriously.

Xu Ling snorted and ignored him.

Teacher Zhou frowned even more tightly. He looked at the watch in his hand, it was still early, and turned around and said, "Go, teacher will take you out to eat."

Xu Ling was not happy to follow him. I kept walking out. Teacher Zhou followed. Seeing her like this, I couldn’t help sighing, “Student Xu Ling, have you been chasing with those senior students recently? I told you that this is not the case. Okay, don't make trouble. At your age, you should study hard."

When Xu Ling heard this, she turned and pointed at him, "We all act according to the instructions of our superiors. If you say we are not good, you are a reactionary."

Teacher Zhou was very old, was pointed at by a small student, and was stunned. Seeing the anger and dissatisfaction in her eyes, she suddenly felt a little helpless.

Seeing him like this, Xu Ling suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She gritted her teeth and turned around and ran away, for fear that Teacher Zhou would follow.

Fortunately, Teacher Zhou didn't keep up, so she found a restaurant, bought the food, sat down and finished the meal by herself. I wandered outside again, and when the time was almost up, I went to school.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I ran into Xiaoman.

"Second sister, why are you here again?" Xu Ling looked at Xiao Man with dissatisfaction.

Xiao Man had been waiting at the door. She had just arrived at the school early and went to find Xu Ling specially. As a result, she didn't see anyone, so she just waited at the door.

Seeing Xu Ling coming, she asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

Xu Ling pointed to her greasy mouth, "Eat, rice."

He looked at Xiao Mandao again, "You can be nosy like last time, I tell you, if you do this again, they will beat you as a reactionary. They also said that you are white and fat, like a capitalist. "

Xiao Man looked at her like this, his eyes reddened, "Xiao Ling, I won't go to school anymore, so don't go to school either. Okay, let's study at home together, and I will teach you. Don't come to school."

She really didn't want to watch Xiaoling beat her teacher like others. She felt that something was wrong. How can a student beat the teacher?

Xu Ling was not happy, "We are acting according to instructions, so just leave it alone. I'm busy now, you go back quickly." She doesn't want to hide at home in a desperate way. Why, she will never get caught Bullied. Her dad is dingy at home, not being bullied in the mine. If she doesn't make trouble, then she has to be bullied by someone else.

"Xiaoling..."

Xu Ling ran to school with her bag on her back to find her own organization.

Xiao Manzhen was about to chase it when she saw a group of students in green uniforms running out of the teaching building. She was taken aback and turned around and ran subconsciously.

She is afraid of these people.

In the evening Xu Nannan and Lin Qingbai went to Yu's place for dinner. Because of things outside, the atmosphere at home seems quiet.

After eating, Xiao Man looked at Xu Nannan with great heart, and when Xu Nannan was about to leave, she took Xu Nannan to tell about Xu Ling's affairs at school.

She didn't plan to tell Xu Nannan about this. She was worried that Xiaoling would be criticized, but today she looked at Xiaoling with the group of people, and she was scared. I was afraid that Xiaoling would become such a person.

Xu Nannan's eyes widened when she heard that Xu Ling had actually become one of those troublemakers.

On the way, she said angrily, "I'm going to school tomorrow, I have to get Xiaoling back." She's not ten years old yet, what's the trouble with her.

Lin Qingbai said, "I will go to school tomorrow."

At work the next day, Xu Nannan was thinking about Xiaoling. If Lin Qingbai hadn't said that he was going to school to deal with this matter today, she would not be able to stay.

At noon, I saw a group of children rushing up to the mine, all children of mine workers, running back in a swarm, shocked. When I asked, I found out that the Armed Forces Department arrested people at the school today, saying that someone was fishing in troubled waters and acting in reaction. Naturally, the most violent students of this group of troubled students are the focus of observation.

After all, it was the children who ran into the county armed forces department, who really dared to do something with them, so scared that they didn't even wait for the school and ran back.

After a while, Xu Ling also came back, and was carried back by Lin Qingbai along the way. After hearing the news, Xu Nannan hurriedly went out to look. Sure enough, seeing Lin Qingbai carrying Xu Ling towards Xu Jiansheng's house, Xu Nannan hurriedly followed. Lin Qingbai put Xu Ling down when he was at home.

Lin Qingbai pointed at Xu Ling and smiled angrily, "You ask what she did, step on your teacher!"

Lin Qingbai had also heard of school movements before, but his focus now is on various units and townships. He feels that a group of children can't make any big noises. Don't bother with them.

I only found out after I went today that the school was all smacked.

Let alone those teachers. A group of elementary and middle school students ran to the teacher's house to smash things and beat people. The teacher who teaches and educates is so ruined.

Xu Nannan looked at Xu Ling incredulously, "Do you step on the teacher with your foot?"

"They, they all stepped on...Who would let him take care of us at ordinary times." Xu Ling looked nervously at her sister and brother-in-law.

How did she know that she was only stepping on her feet, and her brother-in-law came in and picked her up. Everyone is doing that, if she doesn't do it, people will have to step on her.

Xu Nannan's eyes were red. Xiaoling turned out to be one of the people she hated. This is still young, and if he gets older, he still can’t ransack his home. Fortunately, she was worried that Xiaoling was being bullied before, and as a result... she grabbed Xu Ling and hit her ass, "Did I tell you before, telling you not to mix up these things, what did you say? , You promised me that you still do these things. You child, the teacher takes care of you for your own good, so you just return it."

Xu Ling cried aggrieved at once.

Tears rushed down, "Why can others bully me? I can't bully others. Li Jing used to treat me badly, beat me and scolded me. Xu Hong and Xu Meizi always talked ill of me, and That Xu Long and Xu Lei always beat me secretly, why they can bully me, I can't bully people."

Xu Nannan solemnly said, "If you are bullied, you will bully others. Then you are different from Xu Hong and others. If you have the ability, you will bully and go back. Don't follow them to harm others! Did others provoke you?"

Xu Ling pouted and said nothing. Some looked at his brother-in-law in fear.

Lin Qingbai looked at her like this, got up and walked out. This child has to be taken care of, or else he will really become a wolf cub.

When Xu Nannan saw Lin Qingbai went out, he took Xu Ling to sit down, "Think about it for yourself, is your teacher bad to you? Teach you knowledge and take care of you, that's for your own good. You follow him and beat him, you Does it feel better in my heart?"

Xu Ling was silent for a while.

Seeing Teacher Zhou being stepped on, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Xiaoling, look at Xu Hong and Xu Meizi, they bullied people, what happened now? You want to be like them? I know you were wronged before, but we can't follow them. Who bullies us, we bully Go back. But it didn’t provoke us, and we can’t provoke it. If you provoke others, you are a bad guy, and bad guys are unrequited. Do you want to be a bad guy? Teacher Zhou cared about you before. You beat him, the next week The teacher doesn't care about you anymore. No one can forgive someone who has bullied himself, just like you don't forgive Li Jing."

Xu Ling twisted her fingers and pinched the corners of her clothes one after another.
