Shen Qiqi followed Lu Qing's footsteps and trotted all the way to the village primary school.
The sun is shining brightly, shining on the red brick and green tile school building, making it look particularly vibrant.
The children's clear reading voices were like a cheerful piece of music, which dispelled the morning sleepiness and made Shen Qiqi feel much better.
She took a deep breath, and the strong fragrance of ink and soil came to her nose, which made her more determined in her idea: this village chronicle must be published!
"Lu Qing, look, this school is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers!" Shen Qiqi's eyes scanned the students playing and fighting on the playground like radar, thinking in her mind which "little writers" she could poach.
Just as the two were about to step into the teaching building, a figure came towards them. The man had a serious face and his eyebrows were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川". It was the school's teacher, Mr. Huang.
"What are you doing in school? Why don't you stay at home and come here to hang around?" Teacher Huang's tone was a little unhappy, and his voice was loud, as if he was scolding students.
"Hello, Mr. Huang, we are here..." Shen Qiqi was about to explain her purpose when she was interrupted by Mr. Huang.
"I don't care what you are here for. It's class time now. You'd better leave quickly and don't disturb the children's studies!" Teacher Huang said, gesturing with his hands, as if to drive them away.
The corners of Shen Qiqi's mouth twitched. This Teacher Huang is really an "old stubborn"!
She took a deep breath and told herself to stay calm.
"Teacher Huang, we came here this time to ask some students from the school to help compile the village history. This is also a good practical opportunity for the children!" Shen Qiqi said sincerely with a confident smile on her face.
"Nonsense! What's so good about compiling a village chronicle? Are you responsible for delaying the children's studies?!" Teacher Huang's face became even uglier. He slapped the lesson plan in his hand, as if Shen Qiqi had made some unforgivable mistake.
"But Mr. Huang, compiling a village chronicle can help students better understand the history and culture of their hometown. Isn't it more vivid and vivid than the knowledge in textbooks?" Shen Qiqi continued to explain.
"What historical culture? That's feudal remnant! You young people just like to do all kinds of fancy things, which are not practical at all!" Teacher Huang snorted coldly and was about to leave with a flick of his sleeves.
Shen Qiqi looked at Teacher Huang's back, feeling somewhat helpless.
It seems that getting the support of the school is not that easy.
She turned to look at Lu Qing and was about to speak when she heard Lu Qing's low voice: "How about we..."
Lu Qing's next words were interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.
The knock on the door was like a bolt of lightning, breaking the stalemate.
A little head with pigtails poked in. It was Student Liu.
His round eyes rolled around, looking at Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing curiously.
"Teacher Huang, can I...can I go out for a while?" Student Liu asked timidly, but there was a hint of cunning in his eyes.
Teacher Huang was about to explode when Shen Qiqi spoke first, "Student Liu, you've arrived just in time! We're discussing the compilation of the village history. Are you interested in participating?"
When student Liu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, but he looked at teacher Huang, whose face was ashen, and hesitated.
"Compiling a village chronicle? It sounds very interesting..." Student Liu muttered softly.
Seeing that there was something interesting, Shen Qiqi quickly struck while the iron was hot: "Of course it's interesting! You can learn a lot of knowledge that is not in the textbooks by collecting old stories and old objects in the village, and you can also make contributions to the village!"
When Mr. Huang heard this, his brows furrowed even more. "Nonsense! Studying textbook knowledge is the real thing. What's the point of messing around with this?"
Shen Qiqi smiled slightly and said calmly, "Teacher Huang, you're right. Learning textbook knowledge is important. However, learning should also be combined with practice! We can combine compiling village chronicles with teaching. For example, let students learn history and Chinese by collecting village history materials. This will not only increase students' interest in learning, but also allow them to better understand the history and culture of their hometown. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"
After hearing this, Teacher Huang was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face eased a little.
He touched his chin, as if thinking seriously about Shen Qiqi's proposal.
The classroom was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
Student Liu was even more captivated by the story. He blinked his eyes, as if he could already see himself holding a pen, recording those ancient and mysterious stories of the village...
"Well..." Teacher Huang was about to speak when Shen Qiqi added, "Teacher Huang, think about it, if our village had its own village history, it would be a great honor for our family! In the future, the children will be able to point to the village history and proudly tell others, 'Look, this is the history of our village!'"
Teacher Huang's expression changed again and again, and finally he sighed: "Okay, I'll think about it..."
Seeing this, Shen Qiqi knew that this matter had a play, and the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
She turned to look at Lu Qing and smiled brightly.
"Hey, Lu Qing, you say..."
Seeing his wife busy with the village history, Lu Qing took her in his arms with heartache and patted her shoulder gently, as if he was comforting a frightened deer.
"Qiqi, don't worry, we'll find a way together." His low voice seemed to carry a magical power, instantly soothing the anxiety in Shen Qiqi's heart.
Shen Qiqi leaned on Lu Qing's chest, feeling the warmth coming from him, and an indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.
