Chapter 63 Digging Wild Vegetables

I also bought two pounds of oranges, a bag of winter melon candy and a bag of dried red dates.

She wanted to buy some meat, but the meat in the supply and marketing cooperative had already been sold out, so it was difficult to get it out.

Carrying the basket on her way home, when she was almost home, Liu Yinyin smuggled another five kilograms of flour and five kilograms of rice from the system.

In order to stock up more food, from now on, she had to buy some food out every time she went to the county town.

If there were not enough food coupons, she would say that she bought them on the black market. Anyway, she had a system and there was no way she would leave them unused.

The next day, at about 7:50, Liu Yinyin carried her son to class.

The twenty-two children who registered yesterday have arrived and are crowded in a classroom. Most of them are boys. They are usually wild and are now chattering.

Liu Yinyin walked into the classroom, coughed twice, and glanced at the group of children...

Fortunately, perhaps because they knew that Liu Yinyin was their teacher, and there was an invisible "blood bond" between teachers and students, these children still respected their teachers in their bones.

In a moment, the classroom became quiet.

Liu Yinyin had a blank expression on her face and walked straight to the back of the classroom.

In order not to disturb the other children in class, Liu Yinyin placed the stroller in which Gu Yanyan was sleeping at the back of the classroom.

Put Gu Yanyan on the bed. The child is now awake. Maybe because he has changed his place, his round eyes are moving around.

He didn't cry. Liu Yinyin didn't care about him. She stuffed a rag doll she made into his hand and let him lie down and play with it by himself.

On the first day of class, there is no need to divide students into classes, as everyone starts from the first grade.

Liu Yinyin first asked the group of elementary school students to stand in a row from shortest to tallest, and arranged seats for them according to their height.

Afterwards, Liu Yinyin picked a boy who was tanned from the sun and appointed him as the class monitor. The boy's name was Liu Dazhuang. He was twelve years old and the oldest student in this class.

Liu Dazhuang was suddenly assigned to be the class monitor and was a little confused: "Teacher Yinyin, why do you want me to be the class monitor?"

Liu Yinyin: “…”

Because you are the oldest and look the naughtiest!

Clearing her throat, Liu Yinyin said to him, "Because the teacher thinks you are the most capable and can definitely help the teacher manage this class well."

Liu Dazhuang was suddenly praised, and his face turned red like a monkey's butt. But this boy was also smart and did not forget to ask for some benefits for himself: "Teacher Yinyin, is there any reward for being the class monitor?"

I thought that if I could deal with this most naughty one, the others wouldn't cause any trouble.

Liu Yinyin continued to fool around, "Of course, you have to be a good squad leader. I'll let your uncle take you to the mountains to hunt later."

Every man has a passion in his heart, even if he is just a twelve-year-old boy.

When Liu Dazhuang heard about going to the mountains to hunt, his eyes lit up and he asked quickly, "Can we kill wild boars?"

Everyone in the village knew that Gu Cheng had hunted a wild goat last time.

Liu Yinyin paused: "...It's possible."

Is a one in ten thousand probability possible?

Liu Dazhuang immediately calmed down, sat in his seat, straightened his back and said, "I can definitely be a good squad leader!"

Liu Yinyin nodded with satisfaction, turned around and wrote a few big words on the blackboard.

In the first class, Liu Yinyin did not start the class directly.

Instead, I first told you a story about a great man who studied for the rise of his country.

The main purpose is to make children understand the importance of studying, although the goal is not to train them to become talents and bring glory to the country.

But now that I'm here, I can't just waste my time here.

The children had never heard such a story before; their blood boiled and they clenched their fists.

After creating a good atmosphere in the classroom, Liu Yinyin began to teach them.

There were no conditions in the village, so everything in the school was kept simple, and it was impossible for Liu Yinyin to teach them all day by herself.

Therefore, Liu Yinyin's schedule is two classes in the morning, one Chinese class and the other painting or singing, each class lasts for 40 minutes.

There are also two classes in the afternoon, one is mathematics, and the rest of the time I take everyone to pick wild vegetables.

The first day went smoothly and everyone was able to accept the first three classes.

But in the end, Liu Yinyin took them to pick wild vegetables. Some people didn't understand and asked, "Teacher Yinyin, we are not in class, why do we have to pick wild vegetables?"

The person asking the questions was a girl named Liu Bing'er, the granddaughter of the village captain.

Liu Bing'er came to school in order to live a good life in the future. Her mother said that if she studied well, she would be able to find a good family in the future.

Liu Bing'er is only ten years old, she wouldn't understand if I told her this.

But Liu Bing'er's mother finally said that if she studied, she would be able to eat enough food in the future, and she would also be able to eat white flour and meat. Liu Bing'er understood what she said, and it had a fatal appeal to her.

So, in order to eat white flour and meat in the future, she decided to study hard!

Liu Yinyin didn't know what the little girl was thinking, so she said directly, "Of course, studying doesn't mean you can be lazy and ignorant. The land is the root of farmers, and the commune school also has labor classes."

They didn't understand what she said any more, so Liu Yinyin just said, "Besides, your parents work hard enough, they can't go out to dig wild vegetables for your tuition after work, so... you have to pay for your tuition by yourselves in the future."

Learning requires a combination of work and rest. There is no need to give them physical education classes. It is better to let them dig wild vegetables by themselves.

Except for Liu Bing'er, everyone else was happy to go pick wild vegetables, otherwise they would be too restless to stay in school all day.

Liu Yinyin gave them fifteen minutes to go home and get the tools to dig wild vegetables, and then they gathered at the school gate and went to the mountain together.

Liu Yinyin herself didn’t have time to dig wild vegetables, she had to look after them and take care of the children at the same time.

I took the baby home, fed him, and carried a diaper bag.

When Liu Yinyin returned to the school gate, everyone was already there, and everyone was holding a basket in their hands.

After counting the number of people, Liu Yinyin asked the squad leader Liu Dazhuang to lead everyone out.

They didn't have to walk far, there was a hillside nearby, and Liu Yinyin asked them to dig wild vegetables on the hillside.

The children were quite happy about this group activity and started digging wild vegetables in groups of three or five.

Liu Yinyin found a flat ground and spread the diaper bag on the grass. Her arms were sore from holding Gu Yanyan for a long time, so she let him lie on the ground covered with cloth and play for a while.

"Ahhh..." Gu Yanyan was very excited as soon as he went out, and his mouth was spitting saliva.

This kid has been like this lately, he likes to blow bubbles whenever he has nothing to do.

Liu Yinyin wiped his mouth while looking at the group of children.

After a while, Liu Yinyin picked up the child and walked around, and inadvertently scattered some seeds on the ground.

In order to make more wild vegetables grow on this land, Liu Yinyin bought some wild vegetable seeds from the system.
