Chapter 58 Class Experience

Each of them picked a class and stood at the door to answer questions for parents or students.

By the time the students all entered their classes and sat down, it was already two hours later.

Wen Xin is in charge of the third grade of elementary school. There are 16 people in the class, which is already a lot. The junior high school class has the smallest number of people. After all, not everyone can think of going to junior high school.

The main reason they send their children to school is to learn how to read and not become blind.

But if their children go to junior high school or high school, many families are reluctant to pay the tuition fees.

Especially now, high schools are also very chaotic. The workers, peasants and soldiers university depends on recommendation, which is basically impossible for rural children.

After getting a junior high school diploma, they can find a job in the city and wait for housing allocation in the factory. This is the best path they have planned for themselves.

Wen Xin walked into the classroom, and the children were still chatting. Wen Xin patted the table, and everyone fell silent and looked at the teacher standing on the podium.

Wen Xin coughed lightly and said, "My name is Wen Xin. I will teach you Chinese from now on. If you need leave or anything like that, you can contact me directly. We all met on the first day, so please introduce yourself first and tell us what your name is." Name, how old are you? Let’s get to know each other.”

After Wen Xin finished speaking, the people below looked at each other, not daring to be the first one.

At this time, an older child stood up first and said, "My name is Li Wu, I am 12 years old."

After saying this, his whole face turned red, and he sat down immediately without waiting for anyone else to react.

With the first person at the beginning, the introduction of others will go smoothly.

Wen Xin is listening from above. The oldest child in this class is 15 years old and the youngest is 9 years old.

There was also a 14-year-old girl who came to school carrying a one-year-old child on her back.

Wen Xin asked her, "Is this your brother?"

The little girl was a little scared and said, "It's my brother." As if she was afraid that she would kick her out, she quickly assured her, "Teacher, don't worry, my brother won't delay class if he doesn't say anything."

Wen Xin comforted her gently, "Don't be afraid, I'm just asking. Were you brought here because there was no one to take care of you at home?"

The little girl shook her head and whispered, "No. My mother said that if you want to go to school, you have to take good care of your younger brother at home. Otherwise, I won't be allowed to go to school." After saying that, she lowered her head.

Wen Xin was speechless for a moment when she heard this. She forced a smile and said, "Okay, teacher believes in you. Don't worry, just take the class and you'll be fine."

Wen thought to himself, this little girl is already 14 years old. In a place like the countryside, 14-year-old girls are already a labor force. Especially if there are younger brothers and sisters at home, they are even more suitable to look after the children. This girl can come to school. She must have persuaded her family for a long time, and then she paid this price in exchange for being able to go to school.

Some families in the village send their girls to school, with the idea that once they can read, they can get married and speak better.

Wen Xin sighed softly and dismissed the distracting thoughts in her mind.

On the first day of class today, Wen Xin first taught everyone some simple numbers and words, such as heaven, earth, people, literature, etc.

After one class, it was still very smooth. The students are very obedient. They read when they are told and write when they are told. Wen Xin’s teaching was not difficult.

The morning time passed quickly. Students who lived nearby would go home to eat, while those who lived far away brought their own meals.

They gathered together in twos and threes to eat and chat. Although it was the first day we met, many people have already made good friends.

Wen Xin went back to the backyard of the educated youth to eat.

Li Qian, Zhao Wanqing and Wen Xin walked together.

"How was your first day today?" Li Qian asked.

Wen Xin replied, "It's okay. The students are quite obedient."

Zhao Wanqing also nodded, "There are not many people in the junior high school class, so we can manage it completely."

Li Qian also nodded, "That's good."

As soon as he entered the gate of the Educated Youth Academy, he met Lin Kai.

"Are you back? I haven't congratulated you for passing the exam as a teacher." Lin Kai looked at the three of them and congratulated them.

Li Qian said, "Thank you. You were not here at that time. You can try it if you have the opportunity later."

Zhao Wanqing and Wen Xin also expressed their gratitude and didn't say much else.

Lin Kai was a little disappointed when Zhao Wanqing didn't say anything.

Without further greetings, a few people were let in, and Lin Kai left. He came back to get something, but he still had to go back to work.

To be honest, Lin Kai has a sense of crisis. After all, Lin Dongze has also been admitted as a teacher. He and Zhao Wanliang get along day and night, which is a great advantage.

As for himself, he was not even acquainted with Zhao Wanqing, he had never spoken to her a few words, and he was still in unrequited love. There is no reason to be jealous!

After thinking about it, I still need to communicate more with Zhao Wanqing.

Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing went back to their houses.

Wen Xin put the firewood on the fire first. You have to show off, otherwise others will think you don't want to eat.

After boiling the water, Wen Xin took some food from the space and ate it.

She is lazy and doesn't want to cook extra. Besides, there are delicious ready-made products, so why bother to cook again.

After eating, I lay down half-lying on the bed to rest.

I thought I would have to go to the mountains to find some firewood in the afternoons these days.

Just do it, Wen Xin immediately got up and knocked on Zhao Wanqing's door next door.

"Wanqing, did you go to the mountain to look for firewood this afternoon?" Wen Xin asked.

Zhao Wanqing was startled by her and said, "Okay, go ahead."

Classes in the afternoon were still the same as before. Wen Xin went to other grades. The students in the first grade were obviously younger, and there were also a few naughty ones.

But after the whole elementary school class, Wen Xin felt that it was pretty good, better than her previous job.

She has not really experienced the summer and autumn harvests yet, and they came at just the right time. I heard from Sister Qian that during the summer and autumn harvests, meals were eaten in the fields. After eating, they immediately went back to work without any time to rest.

There is no such thing as a foreign worker. Everyone is busy collecting food. If you delay, you will be fined.

Wen Xin felt terrible just listening to it. Her little body couldn't bear it.

After assigning small homework to the students, the afternoon class was over.

Wen Xin took a sip of water to soothe her smoking throat.

After one sip, I felt much better. It was the thoughtful Comrade Wanqing who brought the water.

After everyone left, the six of them gathered together to exchange their thoughts on today's teaching, and then went back to their respective homes.

Li Qian knew they were going to find firewood, so she didn't follow them and went back first.

Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing walked up the mountain arm in arm.

The foot of the mountain has been stripped bare, not to mention the firewood.

They walked up and found not only firewood, but also many wild vegetables.

The two of them went to pull wild vegetables with their eyes shining.

After pulling out the nearby ones and finding a lot of firewood, I planned to go back.

Wen Xin quietly nudged Zhao Wanqing and asked in a low voice, "Are uncle and aunt in the cowshed over there? Do you want to go and have a look?"

Zhao Wanqing looked in the direction she was pointing and nodded, "Yes, there. We can't go there now, there are too many people and we will be discovered."
