Wear the book and be reborn as a group favorite for 50 people

The happy days are always short, and it was time for the second aunt and the others to go back. Several cousins ​​reluctantly followed their mother back to Haishi. Before leaving, the second aunt promised to send them back during the winter vacation. These few My brother became happy.

The cousins ​​from the second aunt's house have gone back. The eldest cousin at home has to recuperate, so the family usually has three brothers. Brother Tang occasionally takes his brother out to play, and the house suddenly becomes quieter. The big cousin finally failed to catch up with the first batch of recruiting teams. I don’t know what the eldest uncle and the others said to the eldest cousin. Anyway, he seemed to be in a good mood. He nursed his injuries obediently every day, waiting to catch up with the next batch of recruits after his feet healed.

At the end of August 1956, before the second batch of recruitment started, Tang Xin started school. She officially became a primary school student.

On this day, Tang's father and Tang's mother solemnly sent their daughter to school. They were really worried about this daughter, worried that she would not be able to adapt to school life. After all, my daughter has been different from other children since she was a child, and she doesn’t even want to go to daycare. Looking at the worried expressions of her parents, Tang Xin knew that they were worried about her. To be honest, she didn't want to go to elementary school, but she had no choice. It would be too weird not to go to school at her current age, and she had also escaped for three or four years. It’s time to face it.

"Dad, Mom, I've gone to school, don't miss me too much." Tang Xin pretended to be relaxed and said to her parents. He looked very much looking forward to going to school.

Seeing his daughter's sensible look, Father Tang felt even more distressed, but his reason stopped him from blurting out anything.

"Good sugar baby, go home with your brother after school and get along well with your classmates, you know?" Tang's mother hurriedly told her daughter, fearing that her husband would be soft-hearted and take her back.

"Okay, bye mom and dad. I'm leaving." Tang Xin turned around and walked to her brother's side.

"Mom, dad, don't worry. I'll be watching over my sugar baby in school." Brother Zhanbo didn't understand why his parents were so worried. He just thought they felt too sorry for his sister, so he quickly promised to protect his sister at school. No one would dare to bully me.

"Okay, I understand. You are a brother and you must take good care of your sister, you know?" Father Tang warned his son again, he has the heart of an old father.

"Okay." He had said this so many times in the past few days. He never got tired of hearing it from his father. However, as a filial elder, Zhan Bo still solemnly agreed.

After finally bidding farewell to their worried parents, Tang Xin and her brother walked into school.

The school is located in the middle of Huada, not far from Tang Xin's home, about twenty minutes' walk. The school was separated into a separate courtyard, and a large white sign hung on the right side of the iron gate that read Huada Primary School. Walking further inside is a tree-lined road. After passing the tree-lined road, you will find a large playground. A straight brick paved corridor divides the playground into two parts: east and west. On one side, rows of poplars were planted, standing straight and tall. There was a two-arm-thick poplar tree with a bow hanging on it. Looking at this ancient object, Tang Xin sighed again, how traditional it is.

On the other side of the playground, there are five or six table tennis tables made of blue bricks and cement, and there is a basketball court and horizontal and parallel bars next to it.

Directly opposite the gate is a three-story building with brightly colored flags. There are two rows of bungalows on each side. The students walked towards the third floor one after another, and my brother introduced them as they walked. "We have classes in this building. Your grades one to three are on the first floor, and grades four to six are on the second floor. Our middle school is on the third floor, and the first grade is in one class. If you need anything in the future, come to me on the third floor. .The teachers’ offices are at the ends of both floors.”

Then my brother pointed to the bungalows on both sides, "This side is the water room and warehouse, and that side is the duty area. The toilet is at the back of the building, you can see it if you go around here."

"Okay, I understand." Tang Xin followed her brother's introduction and looked at it. The place was not big and simple, so there was no need to remember it in particular.

The elder brother sent Tang Xin to the door of the first grade and watched Tang Xin walk in before going upstairs back to his class.

There is a green sign for the first grade hanging at the door of the classroom. The floor of the room is paved with red bricks. Facing the door is a wooden podium, which is a bit old. Behind it is the blackboard, which says welcome new students, and there are pictures on the side.

On the left are neat rows of desks. The stools at that time did not have backrests, and two people sat on one stool. The seats are a bit worn, but it can be seen that they were repaired before school started.

Tang Xin caught the attention of her classmates as soon as she entered the class. Today, Tang's mother specially dressed her in a red suspender skirt that her second aunt brought back for her. It was paired with a newly bought white shirt and new leather shoes. At first, Tang Xin thought it was quite normal, but when she arrived at class and saw what her classmates were wearing, Tang Xin felt that she still stood out a bit. Most of the students in the class were wearing blue or green tops, and some were wearing white shirts. . Most of her feet were wearing cloth shoes, and Tang Xin looked a bit out of place.

Although Tang Xin had an adult mentality, she was a little embarrassed to have more than thirty children look at her like this. She silently walked to the last row and found a table to sit down. She had just taken off her schoolbag and put it away when several more children came in one after another.

One of the children was wearing something similar to hers, also wearing a red suspender skirt with black checks, a high ponytail, and a pink canvas school bag slung across the body. When she entered the class and saw Tang Xin, her eyes lit up, and then she walked straight to Tang Xin's side.

"Classmate, is there anyone next to you? Can I sit here?" the girl said with a sweet voice.

"Of course, there is no one here." She couldn't resist the sweet little girl Tang Xin. Although she was not very old, the old aunt still liked cute children in her heart.

"Okay, thank you." The girl sat down.

"My name is Tang Xin, what's your name?" Seeing the girl sit down, Tang Xin asked proactively.

"My name is Chen Xi. I am 7 years old this year. How about you?" The girl smiled at Tang Xin, revealing two small dimples.

"I am also 7 years old." The girl with dimples smiled sweetly, and Tang Xin really wanted to pinch her face with her hands.

"Then we are of the same age. My birthday is in June. Because I was born in the morning, my father named me Chen Xi. In what month were you born?" Chen Xi asked Tang Xin.

"I was born in October." This child seems to be older than me.

"Yeah, then I'm older than you, so from today on I will be your sister. Don't worry, I will take care of you in school from now on." The girl said happily.

After a few words, the girl started chatting, and without Tang Xin asking, she revealed everything about her family.

The girl's name is Chen Xi. She is the youngest in the family. She has an older sister and an older brother, so she has always dreamed of becoming an older sister. Unfortunately, she is an old woman whose mother was only in her thirties. She has not dared to have another baby since she gave birth to her. , which makes little Chen Xi very sorry.

Chen Xi's family background is also very good. His father is in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and his mother is also in the government department. Now his father is sent to work abroad and is the ambassador to China. My elder sister is married and works in the system with her brother-in-law. My second brother is now in high school. She is the only old lady in the family, and the whole family dotes on her.

Tang Xin was very happy to have such a cheerful child as her companion.

Since today is the first day of school, the teacher came and called the names. There are 35 new students in their class this year. After briefly talking about the school's rules and regulations, the teacher specifically mentioned that the school has no dress requirements for students, but they must wear collared and sleeved clothes in summer, and cannot wear vests or shorts to school.

Then new books are issued. Now the first graders have to learn a lot, including Chinese, arithmetic, labor, moral character, music and physical education. Looking at the newly released black and white textbooks, Tang Xin still found it quite novel, especially because the Chinese textbooks also had simple figures drawn on them, which said that the People's Education Press had published the first set of Chinese textbooks.

At this time, primary school had not yet begun to implement full-time education. Grades 1 to 4 were all junior primary schools and had half-day classes. Grades 5 to 6 were called upper primary schools. School usually ended at three o'clock in the afternoon. In fact, they stayed in school every day. It won't be long.

"Dang, Dang, Dang." The school bell rang at noon. Tang Xin put all the books into her schoolbag. Chen Xi looked at Tang Xin's schoolbag with envy, and asked her where she bought it, and asked her mother to buy one for herself.

Tang Xin said that it was made at home. The little girl was a little frustrated. Tang Xin quickly comforted her: "My family also made me a pink one with plaid. If you like it, I will give it to you tomorrow."

"Really? I like it, I like it. Tang Xin really thanks you. I'll give it to you whatever you want." Chen Xi suddenly became happy.

"Don't be polite to me, you said you would protect me from now on, didn't you?" Tang Xin winked at Chen Xi playfully, and the two girls laughed together. The boat of friendship sets sail from this moment on.
