Chapter 100
After New Year's Day, the temperature in the entire Songbei Town dropped at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Weisheng lit the fire wall in his house early.
Weisheng, who raised the guard dogs as pets, couldn't bear to let them stay in the yard for more than a month, so he let them and the cat stay in the house to keep warm.
But in this case, Weisheng would have to open the door frequently to let them out to poop.
The temperature dropped very quickly. I only felt a little chill the day before, but the water tank in the pergola was frozen the next morning.
Weisheng was just about to use the space to move the water tank into the house when he saw Pang Sihai and Xia pushing open the courtyard door.
Both of them came to help Weisheng move the water tank. One was sent by his mother, and the other came here on his own initiative after seeing that the water tank at home was frozen.
We met on the road and knew we were going to the same destination, so we came together.
They were all used to the work and knew how to do it. Xia saw that the water tank was only half full, so he grabbed a bucket and went to get some water. Pang Sihai, on the other hand, gripped the rim of the tank tightly with both hands, tilting it slightly, then maneuvering it left and right toward the door.
When they reached the door, Weisheng didn't wait for Pang Sihai to carry the jar to the threshold, but went over and helped him lift the jar.
After the water jar was brought in, Pang Sihai did not ask Weisheng where to put it. He just placed the water jar on the east side of the main hall according to the old custom.
When the dog and cat saw the water tank coming into the house, they couldn't help but come over to take a sniff, their furry faces full of curiosity.
Pang Sihai looked at the several-month-old puppies. He first reached out and stroked the two little ones' heads, then sighed, "These little guys don't bark at anyone. I can't rely on them to guard the house."
Weisheng came to the two dogs' defense, saying, "You're not strangers, so what's its name?"
There are always people coming to her house every day, and most of them come to bring her things. The two local dogs are of bloodlines carefully selected by their ancestors, so they definitely won't bark randomly.
Pang Sihai remained silent. Just as he was about to say something, Xia Zhenghao returned with two buckets of water. Pang Sihai and Xia Zhenghao poured the water into the water tank together. Regardless of when the remaining half of the tank melted, it wouldn't affect Weisheng's water needs.
Pang Sihai carried the bucket to the shed and placed it there. When he came back, he brought in the entire washbasin rack.
The weather will get colder over the next month, so it’s better to wash your face and other things indoors.
Weisheng hadn't had breakfast yet, so she asked Pang Sihai and Xia Zhenghao to stay with her to have breakfast before leaving.
He didn't go to the awning outside, but instead lifted a board in the middle of the main room to reveal the fire pit. Then he went to the east room to get the fire pit stand and kettle.
Pang Sihai and Xia Zheng helped to light the fire pit, filled a pot of water and sat on the fire pit rack.
Weisheng took out a half-new clay pot, put the ingredients for clay pot rice into the pot, and when the water boiled, he put the clay pot on it.
While waiting for the clay pot rice to be cooked, Weisheng took out another pot and put some miscellaneous greens and dried vegetables and two pieces of shredded bacon in it to make a pot of mixed vegetable soup.
In a short while, the three of them were sitting on small stools, eating clay pot rice with mixed vegetable soup while talking about news from the village and town.
Zhao Shumei and her friends were planning to send Xia Zhenghao to join the army, and Xia Zhenghao wanted to go, but after finding out that even if he joined the army, he certainly wouldn't be stationed in the area closest to home, he started to hesitate.
After listening to him, Weisheng told Xia Zhenghao that joining the army was also a way out. If he could, he could study hard after joining the army and try to get into a military academy.
Getting into a military academy doesn't necessarily boost your career prospects, but it does give you a better chance of staying in the military when the massive downsizing happens. Even if you don't want to be in the military anymore, military academy graduates have a better starting point when they retire.
When Xia Zhenghao heard about studying, he felt a headache, eye pain, heart, liver, spleen and lung pain. Weisheng saw him mumbling about how he had no education and that being a soldier required a strong fist and the courage to charge and kill.
I glared at him unhappily and asked him if he wanted to be a soldier who just followed orders for the rest of his life or did he want to be a soldier who commanded others?
It must be the latter.
Weisheng glared at him again and made a decision. "It just so happens that the village primary school is on winter vacation. Starting tomorrow, come to my place every day and I'll help you review the knowledge points."
Xia Zhenghao:…How come you’re on the job now?
Compared to the reluctant Xia Zhenghao, Pang Sihai took the initiative to sign up after hearing Weisheng's proposal.
The place for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University has been announced, and Pang Sihai will go to D University to study in early March.
He had already given back everything he had learned. He knew many characters, but couldn't write them the first time. Since he had set a goal, it would be a good idea to brush up on his foundation before school started.
This year's Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University class will start school on March 1st at D University in Shangning City, the capital of D Province.
Shangning City and Liquan City are only two hours away by train, but Songbei Town to Liquan City takes five hours by car. Pang Sihai's university isn't too close, but it's also not too far away. But returning to Xing'an Village with only one day off a week is out of the question.
All the workers, peasants and soldiers in the entire D province go to D University. For Pang Sihai, studying is secondary, and making connections is the real purpose.
After agreeing on the tutoring schedule with Xia Zhenghao and Pang Sihai, as soon as the two left, Weisheng went to the village primary school and used the space to take the blackboard from the village primary school classroom home.
After getting the blackboard back, Weisheng didn't use any stand, but directly placed it on the two fire walls between the main room and the west room. However, from then on, if Weisheng wanted to enter or exit the west room, he had to bend down and crawl under it.
I found two sets of examination papers for grades one to five in the village primary school.
Afterwards, he took out the junior high and high school textbooks and made several sets of examination papers while flipping through them.
Weisheng planned to test both of her half-brothers tomorrow. Or rather, she planned to use exams from all grades to get a feel for their current situation. Once she was sure of their situation, she would compile a tutorial lesson plan.
The next day, Pang Sihai and Xia Hao came over and brought breakfast for Weisheng respectively.
They were all made by the godmothers of these two families, they just brought them here by the way.
Weisheng placed breakfast on a bench and ate it himself on a small bench. He also placed the papers that had been divided long ago on the square table in the main hall and asked the two of them to sit on the benches to do the papers.
The two dogs ran around outside for a while, then came in through the crack in the door. They first wagged their tails and sniffed around the house, then lay down at the door quietly, looking outside through the crack and wagging their tails.
Maozi lay on the only unused bench in the room, warming himself by the fire and snoring comfortably.
After Weisheng finished his meal, he poured the remaining breakfast into the dog food bowl, then brewed a pot of tea. He first poured a cup for each of the two brothers who were answering the questions, and then sat back on the small stool, drinking tea and reading a book.
Weisheng was reading the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" which she could recite by heart. She was reading this book at this time because she had no other books to kill time, and secondly, she wanted to give people the impression that she was learning medicine by herself.
There were a lot of exams, some easy, some difficult. Xia Zhenghao was young, having dropped out of school after junior high. Pang Sihai was seven years older than Zhang Zhang, and Zhang Zhang had already graduated from high school two years earlier, let alone Pang Sihai, who hadn't even finished junior high.
Anyway, these two people were really roasted by Weisheng.
╮(╯▽╰)╭
After doing the test papers all day, Weisheng would occasionally praise the two of them. After such a long time, they could still remember so much? Not bad, not bad.
After praising them, Weisheng took out the fruits and other things he had collected earlier and gave them something to chew.
At noon, I baked some steamed bread slices for them to fill their stomachs.
It was not until they finished the afternoon test paper and it was almost time for lunch that Weisheng politely asked them if they wanted to eat here in the evening and then sent them away.
Pang Sihai needs to start tutoring from the third grade of primary school, while Xia Zhenghao is in the fifth grade of primary school.
However, considering that the difference between the two was not that big, and Xia happened to have made a mistake on a fourth-grade question, Weisheng decided to start the tutoring lesson plan from the second-grade knowledge points.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Weisheng turned off the lights, put out the fire pit, and returned to his space.
After returning to the space, she went to the kitchen to make a pot of chicken soup, and then sat in front of the window to start writing lesson plans.
It was past ten o'clock, and Weisheng cooked silver noodles with chicken soup. Then he went for a walk in the painting world to digest the food. He went to bed at almost twelve o'clock.
At 7:30 in the morning, Weisheng yawned, washed and changed his clothes, and then returned to the main room from the space.
Open the door to ventilate, then light the fire pit. As soon as a pot of water was boiled, Pang Sihai and Xia Zhenghao came over one after another.
Putting the brewed tea on the square table, Weisheng asked Pang Sihai and Xia Zhenghao to sit in the same seats as yesterday, and then opened the lesson plan to explain various knowledge points to them from the beginning.
Throughout the process, Weisheng would not criticize them verbally, suppress them with his expression, or do anything else that would make them dislike studying. The whole process was a kind of encouraging education that was not very normal for them, and they would be praised heavily when they answered correctly.
Because Weisheng handled the situation properly, not to mention Pang Sihai, even Xia Zhenghao, who had previously felt a little averse to studying, found studying very easy.
Before the Spring Festival, Weisheng taught them all the basic elementary knowledge by teaching them to take exams while they were learning. They didn't disappoint him, mastering all the basic knowledge very well, getting full marks in math, and having almost no problems in Chinese except for writing.
As for composition, Weisheng did not teach them how to write compositions step by step, but taught them how to write applications and work/study reports step by step.
The first application they wrote was an application to join the party.
After each of them had an application to join the Party that could score 80 points from Weisheng, Weisheng began to help them with the knowledge points from junior high and high school.
Some lessons cannot be remedial, while others cannot be remembered even if remedial. Therefore, Weisheng made the lesson plans for this part more detailed and selective.
Chinese and math are the basics, physics and chemistry are crammed with common knowledge points, and history and politics are made into a chronological table...
Winter only lasted for more than a month, and during this period, Weisheng had not left home and had been fighting with her half-brother.
Fortunately, by the end of February, after just two months of tutoring, Pang Sihai and Xia Zhenghao had both met Weisheng's expectations. Pang Sihai then packed up and left for university, while Xia Zhenghao would come to Weisheng's house every day after work for two hours of make-up lessons, until the day he left home, filled with reluctance and anticipation.
When Xia Hao left, Weisheng finally made a decision.
