Night school?!
What night school?!
What is night school?!
Are schools that only run at night called night schools?!
"Night school?! What's that for?!"
"I'm already this old, I don't want to go, it's so embarrassing."
"Yeah, I don't want to go either. I'm not good at studying."
"Yeah, I just finished elementary school with great difficulty. Junior high school is too difficult. I might as well go home and farm and relax."
"I think so too. I don't understand the junior high school textbooks at all, and I can't learn them no matter how hard I try."
"Junior high school was really hard. I barely managed to graduate. But graduating from junior high school didn't mean anything. Jobs in the city are so limited, it was impossible to get in."
"You're lucky. You graduated from junior high school. I didn't even graduate from elementary school."
"Who told you to skip classes so often?! Not go to school?!"
"Isn't it that I can't learn it? If I could learn it, I would also like to go to junior high school and high school."
"Yes, if everyone could go to middle school and high school, there would be no one to do the farm work."
"Tell me, why does the captain want us to go to this? What kind of night school is this?!
"I don't know either."
"Hey, I think I know something."
"What? Tell me quickly, what's the inside story..."
…
Every household has young people who haven’t graduated from primary school, or have graduated from primary school, or haven’t graduated from junior high school.
After Bai Lianshan decided to open this night school, he first convened a meeting of all members of the production team and then announced the news in person.
Everyone was stunned after hearing this, especially those young people under the age of two who were named. They simply couldn't believe their ears.
No, they have graduated for several years and have forgotten most of the knowledge in the textbooks.
Now, the captain actually lets them go to school at night?!
This is too much to ask of someone.
Most young people are resistant and reluctant, especially those who have moved out or are planning to move out this year. They have no intention of attending night school at all.
Bai Lianshan listened to the people below talking, but he was not in a hurry at all. He waited until everyone had finished discussing and speaking, and everyone's eyes were on him, then he calmed down.
"Comrades, do you think you're too old?! Don't you want to study anymore?! Let me tell you, there are night schools in the city. Moreover, ordinary people can't get into night schools in the city. You need a quota and a note from your work unit to attend night school. The teachers in night schools are not university professors, but experienced workers or section chiefs from major factories. You can't find a way to attend, and there's nowhere to go."
It was actually Qiao Jiuru's suggestion to him to start a night school. If he couldn't study, he could learn a craft or a technique.
What you learn is yours, and no one can take it away. Who knows, one day you might even find a good job or make some money with this skill.
Besides, the autumn harvest is already so far away and the public grain has been paid. It would be better to use the entire winter to learn some skills.
After hearing this, Bai Lianshan and Jiu Shu were overjoyed. They thought this night school was great, excellent, and must be run.
What? !
This night school has such a big background?!
This night school is so good?!
"Go ahead, my son goes ahead, everyone goes ahead."
"Yes, my son and daughter will go too."
"Can my grandson go? He's free at home at night anyway."
"Aunt Hua, your grandson is only 18 years old and still in elementary school. Why should he go to night school?!"
"What's wrong with being 18?! I think this night school is much more promising than elementary school. If you don't go, my grandson will."
"Captain, my eldest son is over two years old. Can he go?!"
"Two years old is too young. It should be at least extended to 25 years old."
"What do you mean by 25? I think anyone can go to night school at the age of 25."
"Captain, I'm 26 this year. They don't want to go to night school, but I do."
"We can't afford to lose out on anything. What has the Captain done for us that isn't beneficial to us?! I support the Captain."
"Right, right, right. When has the Captain ever lied to us?! The Captain will give us some benefits. Not listening to the Captain is the stupidest and most disadvantageous thing to do."
"You're absolutely right. We'll go wherever the captain tells us to go. Captain, this night school is free, right?!"
"I have to pay for it, but is it like elementary school, two dollars a semester?!"
…
The members who had been resisting just now suddenly changed their attitude, staring at Bai Lianshan with shining eyes, and they couldn't wait to sign up for fear of being left behind.
Especially those who were over two years old were more active and eager than those under two years old. They shouted that it was unfair and they wanted to attend this night school too.
This is a good thing, how can we leave them out?! No, absolutely not, they don't agree.
What's wrong with being older?! It's not their fault.
