Split Sky Rider

Chapter 30 - Cultural Export

"Getting married at such a young age and having so many wives?"

Chen Fei was a little unbelievable. This kind of thing was simply impossible in his hometown. The age of marriage for young people was generally over 30 years old.

But here, at the age of 30, people have already started planning marriages for their children.

"This is the local custom. However, getting married at the age of sixteen is really too young. Whether it is polygamy or polyandry, it is mainly determined by the living environment. In a few years, this situation will be much less common. Good Okay, everyone must be hungry, let’s eat!

Shen Fei can see clearly that the customs and habits formed over thousands of years cannot be changed overnight. Only through the influence of civilization can these people become more civilized from generation to generation.

To give you a random example, if everyone in Chen Fei and Shen Fei's hometown were banned from eating pork, their heads would be chopped off in the next second.

The children sitting around the table cheered collectively, and they immediately scrambled to pick up the food.

Their favorite way to eat it is to wrap the shredded roast lamb in a whole naan bread, add a little refreshing pickles, and take a big bite. Then add a mouthful of hot vegetable soup and sip it. It feels extremely satisfying.

For these primary school students, the current real problem is that no matter how good their wives are, they are not as good as naan bread.

If you can eat naan bread, can your wife eat it?

This multiple-choice question is almost a scoring question.

He also got himself a piece of naan bread sprinkled with sesame seeds, and learned to cut strips of roasted lamb from the bones with a knife. Chen Fei added some chopped dried radish, rolled it up and took a bite. It was really delicious. , no wonder these kids love it so much.

He looked at the largest room in the courtyard, where students attended classes, and asked, "Where are the other children? How will they get their lunch?"

Through the window, you can vaguely see the students staying in the classroom.

With Shen Fei's own efforts, a lot of time must be spent on teaching. It must be difficult for her to have other energy to provide lunch for so many students, right?

"Most of them bring their own, and I provide them with hot vegetable soup, a big bowl for each person."

Shen Fei really didn't have the energy. Providing a hot vegetable soup for all the students was the limit of what she could do. She turned her eyes to the six children at the table who were devouring their food and said, "These six are from the last test." If you are first in grade, you can enjoy free lunch with me, which is also an encouragement and reward. The tallest one is named Muzik, who is in sixth grade. The one next to him is called Dulu, who is in fifth grade, and then fourth grade. Tina in the first grade, Little Cherry in the third grade, whose name was given by me, her rosy little face is as cute as a cherry, making people want to take a bite, and Moore in the second grade Han and first-year Funa.”

There are six primary school students, three boys and three girls, but it can still be seen that girls have more advantages in learning in the lower grades.

It's just that Chen Fei didn't recognize all the students here. Shen Fei took this opportunity to introduce a few more by the way. After a few times, he could call every student here by name.

When her name was mentioned, the little cherry with a unique name lowered her head shyly, and her face turned red, just like a real cherry.

The three little boys whose names were also called all grinned and made faces at Chen Fei, obviously very naughty.

Children are all born to be gossips. All the students in this school already know that there is an older brother named Chen Fei who has just arrived at the nearby 911 air service base and is a fellow student of Teacher Shen.

Perhaps because of their love for each other, for the sake of Teacher Shen, these brats treated Chen Fei completely as one of their own without any barriers.

Shen Fei's hometown has a natural advantage in food. No matter how lazy these children are, they can't resist the temptation of lunch. They have to study hard, otherwise they will watch eagerly as those classmates who come first in the test feast. I was forced to cry.

But for the parents of the students, a free lunch can also reduce a lot of family burdens. Teacher Shen can eat well and feel safe.

It is impossible to herd sheep. Only by honestly finishing first in grade can your family breathe a sigh of relief.

Children always remember to eat and not to fight. If they don't like to study, it will be useless to smoke them eight times in the morning and evening. But when they make routines about eating, these greedy children have almost no resistance.

Although Shen Fei single-handedly maintained this elementary school, she had to put more thought into ensuring the quality of teaching.

"Teacher Shen, can your salary afford it?"

Even if he cultivated a vegetable field, he still had to create so many tricks, which made Chen Fei a little worried about the financial pressure of this female teacher, who must have spent a lot of money out of his own pocket.

If you are thinking of making money, you will definitely not be able to persist here. Leaving as soon as possible is the best choice.

After all, there are so many mouths. Even if the pickles and vegetables are grown by oneself, it does not cost much, but the expenditure on flour and meat is not a small amount.

When he took out gluten, sugar and yeast from his backpack, it could be seen from Shen Fei's surprised reaction that her material reserves here were not very generous.

"It's okay. I have extra allowances and various subsidies. The sheep and chickens here are also very cheap. Plus some of the things I grow myself, I can survive. UNESCO has an agreement with Tianqi Defense Group. The 911 aircrew base also regularly provides me with some material assistance, such as flour, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and personal supplies. Basically, there is no shortage, but there is not much special bread flour. Thank you for sending it to me this time. With gluten, I can make bread again."

Although trying to maintain such a school deep in the barren mountains of the Hindu Kush Mountains, with a large number of students, there will inevitably be various inconveniences, but Shen Fei is still very optimistic.

Shen Fei and her compatriots have long been equipped with survival skills such as planting, and are better at self-reliance and overcoming difficulties. Unlike people elsewhere, when the flood comes, they only build a boat to escape, and never think about defeating it. The flood dragged the gods down and hammered them to the ground.

"If you need anything or if it's inconvenient, just say hello to me, but..."

As Chen Fei spoke, he began to scratch his head, looking embarrassed.

This school, which even has to find its own way to generate electricity, is in a signal blind spot. In fact, most areas in the Hindu Kush Mountains have no civilian signals except satellite signals. They can neither access the Internet nor make phone calls. They are almost isolated from the world. There's no difference.

The school and the 911 aircrew base couldn't even get through on the phone, so how could they say hello? The round trip would take at least five or six hours just relying on manpower to deliver messages, which was quite difficult in terms of both efficiency and cost.

Seeing Chen Fei's embarrassment, Shen Fei waved her hands with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. If you are free, come and sit. Actually, I don't have much work here. The children usually help me do some , if there is really a shortage of manpower, nearby villagers will come to help."

This primary school was established by bringing together several nearby villages. If Shen Fei had difficulties, no one would sit idly by.

"Okay, I'll definitely come over!"

Chen Fei touched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"There is a composition class in the afternoon for all six grades. You can help me."

Shen Fei blinked, with a smile in her eyes.

"No problem, I'll take care of it."

Chen Fei patted his chest without hesitation, leaving a few greasy palm prints on his clothes.

After all, I am an undergraduate student preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, and writing essays for primary school students is not a piece of cake.

"Then please!"

After lunch, plus an hour of free activities, the class bell rang on time at 1:30 p.m.

After having fun in the yard, the children finally began to calm down and returned to the big classroom obediently.

In the two-hour composition class, Teacher Shen Fei unified the proposition, writing in the first hour and commenting in the next hour.

Each growth stage of primary school students' composition has very distinctive characteristics.

Words, words, short sentences, long sentences, paragraphs; time, place, people, things; goals, obstacles, analysis and choices, results and rewards; central ideas, distinctive features, conflicts, reversals, highlights; personification, metaphors, Exaggeration, parallelism, innuendo, seven emotions and six desires... mountains are still mountains, water is water, mountains are not mountains, water is not water, mountains are still mountains, water is still water.

Although it is the same topic, the compositions written by different grades will still be very different.

Soon there was a lot of rustling in the large classroom, and students from all grades began to write and write with concentration.
