"Wang Shuning." Qi Jianping, wearing a military uniform, stood under a tree and called out.
Wang Shuning turned around holding the textbook, a little surprised, "Long time no see."
Qi Jianping came over and said, "We know each other, but you didn't tell me and Ge Nie when you came to Jinshan Island to support us."
At the end of September last year, Guo Jingyi and Lu Beichu went to Chaoyang County to buy things and met Qi Jianping. Only then did he know that Wang Shuning had passed the teacher exam and went to Jinshan Island.
"I left in a hurry and didn't tell many people," Wang Shuning replied.
"By the way, why did you come to the island to serve as a soldier?" Wang Shuning asked him curiously.
The two walked side by side on the road, with a distance of one person between them.
Qi Jianping replied: "The factory was not doing well and needed to lay off employees. I was afraid that it would be difficult for my father, so I joined the army."
He wanted to make a living in the army, but he was just an ordinary soldier now. No matter how many grand ambitions he said, they were all empty words, and people would think he was bragging.
Wang Shuning nodded and understood.
"Teacher Wang." Liao Tingming happened to pass by and saw Qi Jianping and Wang Shuning walking and chatting together, feeling a little unhappy.
"Captain Liao."
"Company Commander." Qi Jianping immediately saluted Liao Tingming.
Liao Tingming nodded towards Qi Jianping and asked calmly, "Do you know each other?"
Wang Shuning nodded and admitted, "Before I came to the island, I went to work in Dafeng Village. Qi Jianping's family is in Chaoyang County. We are friends."
They had been through life and death together in the Shanmo incident, and Qi Jianping had helped him a lot.
A strange look flashed in Liao Tingming's eyes.
After Wang Shuning left, Liao Tingming stared at Qi Jianping and said, "You come out to hang out after the training. Aren't you worried about which company you'll be assigned to?"
Qi Jianping felt a little strange. During the training, Captain Liao had always kept a distance from the new recruits. Why was he asking himself such a question now?
"It's not up to me to decide which company I'm assigned to. I haven't looked around since I got to the island, so I'm here to observe the situation on the island."
Liao Tingming: "You will be on the island for a very long time in the future, so there is no need to rush now."
Before, I simply admired Qi Jianping and wanted to assign him to the ship company to have an extra weapon to fight against the enemy.
Now this idea is becoming stronger and stronger. He must stay on the warship. Otherwise, if he trains and patrols on Jinshan Island all day, the probability of meeting Wang Shuning will be higher.
Qi Jianping, who had no idea that he had been regarded as a love rival by Liao Tingming, was looking out at the ocean, which was close to the sea boundary. According to newspaper reports, the island-based troops had a small-scale conflict with criminals in the sea last year.
After the new recruits were assigned, Qi Jianping was assigned to the Second Battalion's Ship Company where Liao Tingming was located. Like all the new recruits, he was sent directly to a warship anchored one kilometer away from Jinshan Island.
"Teacher Wang, I want to take my class to the reef beach for the science class this afternoon. It's a bit hard to take care of so many students. Can you go with me?"
Jinshan Island is surrounded by the sea. The students in the class grew up on the island and are very familiar with it.
So once they learn some knowledge about the ocean in class, the open-minded teacher Su Fangmei will take them outside to go beyond the textbooks and understand the knowledge in the books more intuitively.
Not only her, but also the fifth and sixth grade teachers.
Only the teachers in grades one and two felt that the children were too young to be taken out and that they had to wait until they were promoted to higher grades.
Wang Shuning nodded in agreement. The island was so small that there wouldn't be any problem as long as the students were not allowed to go into the water. Besides, Teacher Su had experience, so he just had to keep an eye on the students and not let them run around.
Before the first math class in the afternoon was over, the students in the class began to get restless and were anxious because they couldn't sit on the benches.
Wang Shuning looked at the clock. There were still ten minutes left before the end of get out of class. "Third grade monitor, pass out the exercise books."
After handing out the notebooks, she said, "Several students made a lot of mistakes in the homework the teacher assigned yesterday. Now we will go over the questions and the fourth graders will do the after-class exercises."
When the get out of class was about to end, Wang Shuning had not yet finished her lecture. Seeing that the students had completely lost interest in the class, she simply put down her chalk and ended the get out of class.
How can you be so excited to take nature lessons outside when you live on an island all day?
The academic pressure is not that heavy nowadays, so no student should be under too much pressure in their studies!
Wang Shuning returned to the office and put down the textbook. Teacher Su Fangmei was already ready, with only a science book in her hand.
Wang Shuning put on a big straw hat and followed the team. It was now past two o'clock and the sun was still very strong. This group of students were not afraid of the sun, so only two of them wore hats. However, they were not very dark and had normal skin color.
The third and fourth grade students lined up in two rows and followed Su Fangmei. Wang Shuning followed behind the team. The students were all high-spirited but very orderly, and no one left the team and ran around.
The wind was so strong at the beach that it almost blew Wang Shuning's hat away.
Among the rocks, Teacher Su was holding a patterned stone and explaining it to the children.
Hu Yongping raised his hand: "Teacher, I want to go to the toilet."
He drank too much soup at noon and was too excited after class, so he wanted to hold it in for the entire class, but now he can't hold it in anymore.
Su Fangmei waved to Wang Shuning, "Teacher Wang, please take Hu Yongping over there."
The reef beach is a twenty-minute walk from the school. I can’t go back to the school toilet, so I can only go to a deserted place to relieve myself.
When they reached a place where they couldn't see each other, Wang Shuning said to Hu Yongping, "Go over there. The teacher is waiting for you here."
Hu Yongping pursed his lips and said, "Teacher, can you please turn around? I feel a little embarrassed."
Wang Shuning smiled and said, "Okay, teacher, turn your back and cover your ears with your hands."
Hu Yongping blushed and ran behind the coconut tree.
Wang Shuning lowered her eyes to look at the coconuts on the ground. The skin had been dried to a dark brown color. She stepped on them and rolled them back and forth, not knowing whether the coconut water inside had dried up.
"Teacher Wang, I'm fine now." Hu Yongping walked out from behind the tree holding his belt.
Wang Shuning turned around and said, "Teacher will take you to wash your hands."
Hu Yongping stood on the stone and put his hands into the sea water to wash them. Wang Shuning, who was standing behind him, stepped back when he saw him finish washing and stand up.
When the two returned to the class, the stone in Su Fangmei's hand had been replaced by a dried conch shell.
Wang Shuning squatted on the reef and yawned. The sun was too warm and he felt a little sleepy.
About twenty minutes later, Su Fangmei finished explaining the knowledge points and was about to take the students back.
Wang Shuning stood up immediately upon seeing this, his vision became dizzy and blurry, his mind went dark, and he fell to the side.
Her body reacted automatically, her hands on the ground, her legs already in the sea.
"Teacher Wang." Su Fangmei and her students shouted out in fright.
The dizziness in his head disappeared, Wang Shuning calmed down, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just squatted for too long and felt a little dizzy."
The water on this side of the reef beach is not deep, only up to Wang Shuning's calves.
