Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

A few days passed in the blink of an eye

It's Saturday morning.

Not surprisingly——

This extracurricular activity is street sweeping again, but instead of going to Beiheyan Street like we did last week, we went to Jiaodaokou East Street.

Li Muhua was sweeping the street with a broom in his hand.

I seriously suspect that Saturday is just for the cleaning team to have a day off, so this is extracurricular activity only in elementary schools. No - this should not be called extracurricular activities at all, but should be called Street Cleaning Day.

This time, not only Li Muhua was slacking off, even Bang Geng, the captain of the labor assault team, didn't have the enthusiasm of last time and kept pushing the cart with a lifeless look.

The pace was so slow, as if it was playing tug-of-war with a basket cart, and it took a long time to move. Xu Ming's brows were almost wrinkled like a tumor. This was not what he expected!

Looking at the other students, most of them are similar to Li Muhua. They gather in groups of three or four, some chatting and some slacking off.

It shouldn't be like this. Weren't we all shouting slogans loudly last week? Everyone wanted to be the leader of the labor team. So shouldn't 76 students compete for the title of leader this week?

In the whole scene of sweeping the streets, the only ones who made Xu Ming feel comfortable were the four shrimp soldiers and crab generals!

Although the other students were more or less slacking off, the four of them were really passionate. Not only were they busy collecting their own garbage, they also freed up their hands from time to time to help Banggeng push the basket cart.

"Although the commando team failed to inspire the enthusiasm of the entire class as I expected, they are still very united and motivated, and they are all very convinced of Jia Geng as their captain—"

Xu Ming looked at the group of five people who had been helping each other and commented with some hesitation.

He originally thought that the students would definitely rush to work this week, and then he would select and change the position of team leader.

Give all students the opportunity to work gloriously and create a positive and hardworking atmosphere for the entire class.

But now the performance of other students is not satisfactory. Even Banggeng, the team leader, is slow in doing his work. So if there is to be a replacement, we can only promote those four team members.

But it seemed that these four team members all obeyed Banggeng's leadership, were very united internally, and were always helping each other, which made Xu Ming's captaincy issue a little tricky.

"Forget it. Last time I said whoever has a good work attitude will be the captain. We should not go back on our word. Besides, Jia Geng's work attitude is indeed problematic. It is really inappropriate to keep him in the position of captain."

After Xu Ming finished speaking, he began to pay close attention to the four major coming ones, hoping that he could rank their enthusiasm for work.

The street sweepers made their way down the street as the sun rose higher.

It's time to pack up and go back to school.

The students stood closely in four rows. Xu Ming stood in front of the middle, his face facing the students with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"Class, how do you feel about your performance today?"

The team remained silent in response to Xu Ming's question.

Seeing that no one answered, Xu Ming raised his voice and scolded, "To be honest, the teacher is disappointed, very disappointed, extremely disappointed after seeing your performance today. Have you forgotten what you said last week? You must strive to be the ..."

After loudly criticizing all the classmates, Xu Ming turned his gaze to Bang Geng who was hiding behind the team.

"Among them, the one that disappoints the teacher the most is Jia Geng. As the leader of the labor commando team, his performance is even worse than yours. It's only been a week..."

Listening to Xu Ming in front of him giving special approval, Bang Geng's eyes instantly became wet, and his mind kept recalling his experiences of the past week.

What kind of life is he living these days?

Every day he is beaten and kicked and forced to clean the classroom alone. After school every day, won’t he have to work for more than an hour in the school covered in dust?

As a result, even though he tried so hard, he was still scolded by Xu Ming in front of all his classmates. For a moment, Banggeng felt that Xier in the White-Haired Girl was not as miserable as everyone said.

How could she be as miserable as I am?

"So I decided to remove Jia Geng from his position as the leader of the labor team."

Until he heard Xu Ming's final punishment for him, Bang Geng actually felt relieved, as if a huge burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

It’s better not to be this crappy captain. At least I won’t have to be ordered around to work like the slaves of the old times.

But before he could be happy for too long, he heard Xu Ming's words slightly warmer again.

"Of course, there were also several students who performed well this time. They were members of the labor commando team. Among them, Tao Yong had the most enthusiastic attitude towards work! He fulfilled the glorious duties of the labor team from beginning to end!"

"So - classmates, please give a round of applause to welcome Tao Yong to be the leader of our labor commando team, and provide a cleaner learning environment for our class in the future!"

"Clap clap-"

The crowd's applause was louder than firecrackers.

Li Muhua was a little unhappy. He just didn't pay attention to Banggeng for a moment. How could he let the little yellow cow Banggeng escape from the harness?

So he couldn't help but applaud and look at the stick.

He didn't applaud either, but looked at Tao Yong with resentment in his eyes as he walked towards the crowd.

Tao Yong walked forward somewhat flattered. He did not expect that Xu Ming would promote him to be the team leader. As for why they had helped Banggeng so much before, it was because they were afraid that Xu Ming would dismiss Banggeng and they would have no fun anymore!

Seeing him approach, Xu Ming smiled and said, "Student Tao Yong, the teacher has seen your performance just now. All your silent efforts will be seen by everyone, so the teacher chose you to be the captain!"

"Come on! Tell us what you are thinking about now and what supports your strong passion for work!"

After saying this, Xu Ming's eyes were full of expectation. He hoped that Tao Yong's enthusiasm for work could be conveyed to all the students present through his words.

"Teacher Xu, um, um..." Tao Yong looked at Xu Ming awkwardly, then turned back to look at the classmates behind him.

"Just say whatever you want to say!"

Xu Ming patted Tao Yong's shoulder soothingly, thinking he was just too nervous.

Tao Yong nodded, turned his head and glanced at the students behind him, then turned back to look at Xu Ming and said seriously: "Teacher Xu, I don't want to be the captain, can you still let Bang Geng be our captain?"

When Bang Geng behind him heard Tao Yong say that he still wanted him to be the captain, his little eyes full of resentment froze for a moment, then he became even more resentful, and his two little hands clenched into fists.

He didn't expect that even after he had been working so hard and never fought back or retaliated for a week, Tao Yong still refused to let him go.

You're not such a bully, are you?

Xu Ming was also stunned, but he immediately reacted: "Student Tao Yong, the teacher respects your ideas, but can you tell the teacher about your ideas?"

"Why don't you be the captain yourself, but are willing to give the captain's position to Bang Geng!"
