In the blink of an eye, it was the day before school.
Everyone prepared everything and hung a lot of things on their bodies. Tian Lisong also carried food on his back and went to the brigade entrance to take a ox cart to the county town.
Tian Yun was also waiting at the entrance of the brigade. She also had to take her luggage to school today.
In comparison, Tian Yun took much less things. She had studied in the county town for a year, and many of her things were kept in the school dormitory.
"Tian Tian! Come up and sit down!" Tian Yun moved to the side and said to Tian Tian.
Tian Tian put all the bags and packages hanging on her body onto the ox cart and then climbed up.
After Tian Lisong and Old Lady Tian put all the things on the ox cart and sat on it, the cart was already full and there was no room for many more people. There were only Tian Yun, her father Tian Ligang, and Tian Tian's family of three on the cart.
Tian Lisong was talking to Tian Ligang who was sending Tian Yun to school.
Tian Yun was also whispering with Tian Tian.
Tian Yun's school was relatively close, so she was the first to get off the bus to go to school. Tian Tian helped Tian Yun to carry her things, and then made an appointment with Tian Yun to go out and play together on Saturday and Sunday.
Those who study in the county town will not go back every semester. Sometimes they go back once a month, and some go back once every half a month.
After watching Tian Yun go in, Tian Tian got in the car and headed for school.
Their county town is not big, with a total of two junior high schools and two high schools.
These four schools are affiliated schools of the largest factories in their county, the parts factories and the non-staple food factories.
It can also be said that this school was the least affected by the movement in this decade.
It’s not that there were no schools run by their county government, but the teachers, principals, and school managers all died or were demoted. Later, the schools could no longer be run and had to be closed.
When recruiting teachers for the factory's affiliated schools, they give priority to those whose parents are both working members of the factory, and secondly to those who graduated from their schools. Therefore, most of the teachers have good family backgrounds and their parents are workers.
Moreover, these two factories are among the best factories in the county. They have the capabilities and are protected by the government. After all, if these two factories go bankrupt, nearly two-thirds of the people in the county will be unemployed.
So even though some teachers in these two schools had accidents, they were still able to operate safely, and all the students from the surrounding areas came to study there.
Tian Yun attended a junior high school affiliated with a parts factory, and Tian Tian attended a senior high school affiliated with a non-staple food factory. The two schools were quite far from each other.
When Tian Tian arrived at the school she was going to attend, Old Mrs. Tian and Tian Tian took down all their things and hung them on their bodies.
Tian Lisong said a few words to Uncle Niu who was driving the ox cart, put the grain on his back, and Uncle Niu went back to drive the cart.
The three of them entered the school with their belongings. There were quite a few people in the school, all of whom had registered today.
After all, there are only two high schools in the entire county, and there are only two options to choose from, so there must be a lot of people coming to the school.
Tian Tian and Old Lady Tian were both carrying too many things, and there were quite a few people in the school. Tian Lisong was a junior high school graduate after all and could read, so he put the things at their feet and then took them to go through the admission procedures.
Tian Tian stood in the shade to rest, fanning herself with her hands while looking around the school environment.
The high school in the county town is not only better than the primary school in the countryside, but also much better than the junior high school that Tian Tian attended. At this time, the school is not much different from the school a while ago. The teaching building is a four-story building, and the boys' and girls' dormitories are two-story buildings, but they are much longer than the teaching building. The toilets are no longer open-air like those in the primary school, but have roofs, although they are also long like a train.
There is nothing to say about the playground, it is still a dirt playground. In some places, you can obviously see that there are very few people playing there, and there is a field of lush green grass.
There are two basketball hoops in the corner of the playground, and there is also a football goal on the playground. The facilities are much better than those in the elementary school.
Tian Tian and Old Lady Tian waited for quite a long time before Tian Lisong came back after finishing his work.
"Let's go! Let's go to the dormitory and choose a bed first." Tian Lisong said anxiously, picking up the things on the ground, and then he strode towards the dormitory.
Now you have to choose your own bed in the dormitory. If you arrive too late, there will be no good seats left.
Thanks to Tian Lisong, who could read, he was much faster than those parents who could not read and completed the procedures quickly. When they arrived at the dormitory, there were not many people there.
Tian Tian entered her dormitory and looked around. The dormitory was very crowded. There were twelve beds in one room. They were all iron bunk beds, crowded together on both sides of the room. In the middle was a row of wooden tables, which were used as study tables. There was also a long cabinet next to each bed, separating each bed, which was used for students to store things.
"Hurry up and choose a seat, they will be here soon." Tian Lisong put down his things and urged Tian Tian.
Tian Tian looked at the beds in the room and felt that there was nothing good to choose from. In fact, each bed had no privacy at all. It was just like the beds in a university dormitory, with four bunk beds pressed against the wall.
Tian Lisong put his things down and went out with the food on his back. He still had to go to the canteen to exchange the food for food coupons and buy some vegetable coupons.
I also have to help Tian Tian get her textbooks back. Tian Tian can do these tasks, but as a father, I always want to help my children do more work.
"Why is the bed placed like this? It will be inconvenient to sleep and change clothes. It's so careless." Old Mrs. Tian looked dissatisfied.
Tian Tian also looked very dissatisfied. She was a socially anxious person and couldn't stand living in such an environment where everyone was in charge. However, she still chose an upper bunk in the middle.
She didn't want Tian Tian to turn off the lights at night, nor did she want to sleep next to a drafty window. She also didn't want anyone to get on the bed and step on her quilt, nor did she want anyone to sit on her bed, so she chose the upper bunk.
Old Mrs. Tian took off her shoes and climbed onto the upper bunk, spreading the luggage she had brought on the bed. Seeing that there was no space to block the view, she grumbled to Tian Tian who was packing her things below her, "This won't work? It's so inconvenient for you to change clothes. When you get home, grandma will make you a small curtain. When she brings it to you, you can hang it up and it will be more comfortable than here."
"Thank you, grandma." Tian Tian did not refuse. She also needed a curtain to cover herself, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable.
Tian Tian took a look at the dormitory layout and chose a cabinet on her left. She opened it and saw that the cabinet was divided into two layers, half a person's height. Tian Tian planned to use the upper layer for clothes and the lower layer for toiletries. She only brought two sets of clothes with her, so they could both fit in perfectly.
Tian Tian took a basin and went out to find a place to get water. There were two dormitory buildings in total, and there was a water room on each floor with several faucets. Tian Tian fetched some water and took it back.
