Seventy Little Heads

When I was just getting used to my junior high school career, the first real holiday was about to usher in—the National Day of the Eleventh.

No matter what this time, I have to go home, but before the holiday, as a class leader, I need to organize people to draw blackboard newspapers.Wang Xuan had never touched this stuff before. In elementary school, teachers were the ones who wrote about any activities. Now that they are junior high school students, these must be students.

At any time, formalism has the soil for survival. No, it was enough to make a version that reflects the theme of the National Day event. But the school didn’t know what happened. better.Later, the teacher said that some leaders might come to inspect.

The nature of this has changed. The blackboard newspaper, which was originally a sincere expression of one's patriotism, has become a situation of winning and tossing.In order to be able to win many things, not only the writing, painting, and content are required, but in order to be more "sincere", the class organization has to pay money. What is it used for?Buy materials, decorations and more.

Many students have been tortured a lot. It seems that other classes have bought it and spent a lot of money to do it. If you don’t do it, it’s perfunctory and unpatriotic!This hat is a bit big, and the selection of the top five means that all the hard work and hard work of the class will be wasted.

Then I want to win more, so that I can be worthy of the effort, and then I will pay more.

Goudan wanted to quit, but this time even the head teachers of each class joined in, as if they were competing with each other.

"Spending a lot of money to make blackboard newspapers is patriotic? I don't know how many students in the class can't afford to buy the cheapest food because they pay the money. It's just like usual. Isn't it good to be patriotic? It’s just tossing here, and doing something else is worse than this. Teacher, look, you made one version after another, and you said no, it’s not as good as other classes, and you have to redo it. Are we not sincere enough? Are we Are you going to stay here and plan to go home?" Goudan said angrily after making a new version and being rejected by the teacher again.

"Look, we are going to make the wall behind the classroom, and there is also a piece of our class on the wall outside the school. These two blackboard newspapers, you say, what's wrong, change it again, just once, if it doesn't work, I will It doesn't matter, whoever wants to do it."

"Student Li Kai, this is the honor of our class. What's wrong with suffering a little bit? Don't you just want our class to get the first place? Don't you want your class to get the first place?"

"Is your brain sick? Didn't you understand what I said? Don't try to put all the responsibility on me. I won't take the blame. I said that there are many ways to be patriotic. You, just you, put So what if the flowers are so beautiful, it shows that you are patriotic? Among us, you are the most idle person. What are you doing? You can send people around, am I the squad leader or are you the squad leader? Everyone is not blind , don’t try to find a sense of presence here.”

Besides, the first thing is to issue a certificate, and then give out two notebooks and two pens for the award in the name of the class.Who is this for?The main members of the blackboard newspaper were the class cadres and a few students who were good at writing and drawing, but other students also paid for their support.It's useless for anyone to use that little thing in the end.This is not the main reason. The most important thing is that no one can afford the increase in class membership fees.

"Okay, okay, students, don't argue. The teacher also knows that in the past two weeks, everyone has been really busy, and some students even missed the meal time. But as Wu Lei said, it is also for The collective honor of our class." Wu Lei was pointed out by the teacher, and he raised his chin to look at the dog, as if he had a lot of credit.

The dog snorted and was too lazy to argue with him. The teacher continued: "The teacher also paid attention to the problems reported by Li Kai. It is indeed too heavy a burden for most of the students. How about this, this is the last revision, okay? The materials will not be changed, and the students don’t need to pay the class fee anymore, so they will use the leftover materials to make them. As for how to use them, the students will discuss it, okay?”

Of course, everyone responded positively.The blackboard newspaper is such a thing, there are not many people who really read it seriously, just turn to the back to look at it when they are idle, usually there is no sense of existence at all, if it is not for the school leaders this time, it will not be at all Much trouble.

In addition to looking for materials for drawing, other students have to pay money, which makes people feel disgusted by this matter.But who dares to say anything?It was the class monitor who dared to talk to the teacher like this, and he admired it in his heart.But the teacher didn't reprimand Li Kai, which surprised everyone.

The day before the holiday, when the bell rang for the end of the last class in the afternoon, many students rushed out of the classroom.Back to the dormitory, carrying the luggage and schoolbag that I packed last night, I ran non-stop to the county bus station, catching the last bus to go home.

When the people in the dormitory saw that Goudan was still slow, they urged, "Li Kai, don't you want to go? I can't catch the bus."

"You go first. Almost all the boarding students have to go home during the school holiday. There are more students in our direction, and there is no way to squeeze into the bus. We plan to leave tomorrow morning."

"Well, don't you want to sleep for another night? I can't, I can't wait to go home now."

"It's better for me. Our home is not far from the county seat. It doesn't matter if you can't take a taxi. There are several people in our village, including those in high school. They can walk home with you. Then I'll go first." The bag is gone.

One after another, regardless of the distance from home, they can't wait to go home on the same day. Regardless of the car issue, no one is willing to wait until the next day to leave.Soon Goudan and Wang Xuan were left in the dormitory, as well as Qizhi and Dafu who had been following Goudan.

They are people from the same village, and they have such a strong relationship. When they squeezed in to sign up, they were also impressed. Now someone takes the lead and leaves the next day, so they stay.

"Chen Qingjuan also came back. I asked her before, and she said that she didn't want to wait any longer. We are at the same table with her, and we are companions from the village next door."

"Let's go, anyway, she is a female classmate, so she definitely doesn't want to go with us. She has gone back two or three times, and she knows the way well, so what are you afraid of?" Dafu said indifferently.

A few people also thought it made sense, "Besides, there is no one in the girls' dormitory, and she doesn't dare to live in it herself. Now that the road is familiar, it's hard for his father to say that we don't care."

Everyone in the same village has countless relatives who are around the corner. They usually take care of Qingjuan. They are the only ones in the village who go to the county to study. junior high school.It can be said that they are only junior high school students who are studying now. It is right to take care of each other, but we should also respect each other's choices.

"What are we going to eat tonight, and stay up until we go home the next day?" It's scary to think about it, will you be too hungry to sleep at night?

"Where is it, let me show you something."

Wang Xuan pulled out a bag from under Zhang Xiaoming's bed, which looked very heavy.The old god Goudan was there and didn't know what he was writing. He just glanced over at Wang Xuan's words and continued to work on himself.On the contrary, Dafu and Qizhi were curious, and Wang Xuan didn't give a shit about it, "Dangdang, it was bought by Goudan and I, what do you think it is?"

"What? Iron, iron block?" It looked hideous.

"Iron stove. How?" Wang Xuan was very proud, and in fact he should be. With this, it will come in handy when Brother Goudan is still hungry and keeps saying he can't sleep well.

"Where did you get it?" Even they knew that it was difficult to get this thing. There was no shortage of iron?Even if you want to buy ironware at home, you must have an industrial certificate. Iron is the property of the state unit, and it is not easy to get a piece of it.It can be seen how rare iron products are.

"Flea market." Wang Xuan said.In fact, it's not that simple, but it's true that they exchanged other items with others. For some reason, this ugly iron bump was thrown in the corner to get dusty.

Presumably its rusty look isn't pleasing and people don't think it's worth the money.When Wang Xuan and Goudan came back from bagging.While he was away, the two of them cleaned it up, and then found that although this thing is not good-looking, it can be used for many years without worrying about it.The rust on it just floated on the surface and didn't affect the real iron itself at all.

At that time, Goudan, who had studied various materials such as weapons for several years, said: This iron is good iron. Judging from the useful life of the item, they only make money but not lose money.When the iron stove was knocked, the sound was clear and rippling, obviously it was made of a particularly fine iron at that time.

"I don't know who, for what reason, actually made such an ugly stove with such a good piece of iron, it's really extravagant." Brother Goudan said so at the time, Wang Xuan knew that this thing is very good, although the purpose That is to say, it has the same purpose as an earthen stove, but because Brother Goudan said that it is made of good things, it must be a good material, so he likes it very much.

Seeing that Wang Xuan was struggling, Da Fu offered to help, and soon he became surprised. "It's so heavy? It doesn't look like a big piece." You know, he often helps out in the fields at home. The young man has a lot of strength, and he works hard, but this little thing is so heavy?

"No way, you are too tofu...fufu... so heavy?" Qizhi was also surprised.

"Hey, it's said to be an iron block, so of course it will be heavier."

Yeah?The two looked at each other, but could it be so heavy?The two scratched their heads.

"Why isn't iron heavy?" Goudan threw it over with a word.

"Right."

"However, if you really want to cook by yourself, do we have firewood? Pots, oil and salt, etc. Oh, I need such things, but I don't have any."

"We're ready, it's enough for today's dinner. When you come to school next time, remember to bring some firewood and salt."

The iron stove is very simple, just as high as the knee, with three legs standing on top of a big round iron belly, with an entrance for firewood or coal in the middle.Then there is a concave circle, just like a neck, and then there is a small circle at the top opening, just enough to place the pot.

Very simple, it looks no different from other iron stoves, and maybe even simpler in shape and function than some iron stoves, and it is not good-looking.It is because of this that it is puzzling, who made such a good iron, Wang Xuan recalled that Goudan said that it was the best quality of all iron he came across.

Of course, what was left by the viewer in the treasure is not counted, the things inside are very miscellaneous, even a small dagger, which is also very heavy and extremely sharp.Needless to say, the material is more difficult to forge.

Dafu and Dagui soon stopped thinking about it. It is normal for metal objects to be heavy.The one in front of me is really heavy, but it's just a stove for cooking. The important thing is the next meal.

The entire student dormitory area is quiet and quiet. If there is only one person to live in, it may be uncomfortable and scary.But the few of them live together, and they are still eating warm dried vegetable porridge around the stove, not to mention how comfortable they are.Wang Xuan deliberately bought more Wowotou at noon, and now there are chopped dried vegetables in the brown rice porridge, put some salt in it, and add some diced meat.It's hot, take a bite of steamed corn bread, drink a bite of porridge, and eat a bite of pickles.It's really beautiful.

They are all growing up, and it is the age when there is nothing left to eat, and everything they eat feels sweet, and there are partners fighting for it, and the smell is much more fragrant than usual.

After eating a pot of dry vegetable porridge, Goudan gently kicked the two of them up with his feet when he touched his belly and sighed comfortably. "Go wash the dishes, and clean the pot by the way."

"Why?"

"Wang Xuan cooked it for you to eat, but you don't wash the dishes?"

"We wash, we wash." Neither of them had any objection, in fact, it didn't need to be said that they would do the same thing, it was just a habit of talking to Goudan.It used to be like this, and it's still like this now, it's just that the place has changed. After getting along for a long time, I found that Goudan is quite defensive.Brothers like them, no one dared to bully them if they were called dogs, even some gangsters, individual senior students would not dare to let them contribute food casually.

This made their relationship more stable. The two obediently washed the dishes and chopsticks, and put them on the top shelf of the old bookshelf. The top two floors were where Goudan and Wang Xuan put the dishes, chopsticks, pickles, jars and other belongings of four people. , and the top layer of the cover board of the bookshelf is where they put the suitcase.Everyone in the dormitory has a consensus that they can only use the lower floors, and they can allocate them whatever they want, but they can't occupy the positions agreed by the two of them.

Wipe off the water in the pot, clean up the ashes that have been extinguished in the iron stove, and use the original sack to cover it from above.The two of them pushed the iron bump under the bed with great effort, and they didn't stop until they couldn't see it when they were standing.

"Wang Xuan, your strength is not too small. I just saw that you could pull it out by yourself. Now we can push it together."

"Brother Goudan and I have been climbing trees and jumping into water since we were young. Even though I am thin, I am also strong."

But we also go up and down the mountain, don't forget, most of us are active together.It's like we're not together.But Wang Xuan looked thin, but he was so strong. They really didn't expect that they knew a little about Goudan's strength.

Wang turned around and climbed onto his bed to endorse the book. What could he say?Said that although I have practiced for three days, fished for two days and posted on the net, I am not as good as Goudan with a finger, but of course I am still a "Hercules" compared to you?

So just fooling around, the two of them simply have big hearts, seeing the two studying on their own beds, they also turned their heads and sat on the lower berths to open the comic books they borrowed.
