Chapter 76 I'll give you half Blink of an eye, it's Thursday. Although it is not Friday, the relaxed atmosphere in school today is similar to that of Friday, because the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is coming soon and Thursday is the last day. Even the weather was nice, as if celebrating the upcoming holiday. It was sunny when I came to school in the morning, but after the morning reading class, it started to drizzle. "It's raining! No need to go downstairs to do exercises!" "Twenty-five minutes of free time!" "Ugh~~" Young boys and girls gathered on the balcony and near the windows to watch the rain. "It's a sun shower!" Rain is not uncommon, but sun showers are rare.
This is a special natural phenomenon that occurs in clear weather. It is sunny outside, but it suddenly starts to rain. The sun's rays shine through the gaps in the clouds and interweave with the rain to create a unique picture. The appearance of sunshowers is often accompanied by the formation of rainbows. This is probably due to the refraction of sunlight by raindrops. The sunlight in the rain is decomposed into a spectrum of different colors, hanging in the distant sky, forming a beautiful rainbow, like magic from nature, adding a bit of poetry to the clear sky. Liu Zhiyi's seat was right next to the window, so she could see this wonderful scenery without having to go out of the balcony. She had seen sun showers and rainbows. Compared with the rainbows in big cities, the sky and rainbows here on the small island were cleaner and clearer. The girl propped up her chin and looked out the window, stunned for a moment. There was a lot of noise inside and outside the classroom. Because there was no need to do morning exercises, the whole teaching building was in a carnival, and the excitement for the coming holiday was fulfilled in advance. "Zhiyi, let's go for a walk together!" Xu Cailing ran over. Liu Zhiyi could sit motionless on the chair for twenty-five minutes, but Cailing couldn't. "Ah? Isn't it raining..." "Let's go, the rain isn't too heavy, let's just take a stroll!" "Where are you going for a stroll?" "If you have a destination, it's not just strolling, it's just walking." Cai Ling invited him so warmly that Liu Zhiyi had no choice but to stand up and go for a walk with her. Originally, I wanted to invite Du Pepe to join us, but Pepe was intercepted by Fang Wei. In the past two or three days, the blackboard newspaper at the back of the classroom has been almost finished. Today is the last day before the holiday, and Fang Wei doesn't want to keep everyone busy with the blackboard newspaper after school. It just so happens that there is no need to do physical exercises during recess, so these twenty-five minutes are enough for them to finish the finishing work on the blackboard newspaper. "Fang Wei, today's weather forecast..." Du Peipei blinked her eyes. She had already drawn a sun and a small white cloud on the weather forecast board, and also wrote [Sunny to cloudy, temperature 27℃~32℃] This was the weather forecast she had written down last night while watching TV on time, but she didn't expect it to rain suddenly at this moment. "It's okay, it's just a sun shower, it will stop soon. Or you can use your imagination and add a rainbow?" "Oh, that's right! I think I have an idea for you." Du Pepe nodded and added a gorgeous little rainbow next to the original weather pattern, which was more in line with today's weather.
Except for Class 2, other classes also have such a blackboard at the back of the classroom, but it is always empty. At most, some slogans or notices are written on it. Where else can you find a blackboard newspaper like the one for Class 2 that is so well-made, has such youthful and cute artwork, and is so rich in content! Many students from other classes would glance at her curiously when passing by in the corridor, which made the other students in Class 2 feel proud. When they played in the classroom, they would be very careful not to wipe off the writing and drawings on the blackboard. When showing off to friends from other classes, they would always say things like "Our homeroom teacher, Mr. Wen...", "The seating arrangement in our class...", "Our class also has a blackboard newspaper...", "Did you attend art class..." I never thought that these things could become something enviable among my peers. Perhaps, this is what Teacher Wen often talks about, a sense of collective honor? …… Five minutes before class, Fang Wei, Wang Yushan and Du Peipei put down the chalk in their hands and finally completed the task of making the blackboard newspaper. The two girls also showed relaxed smiles on their faces. Fang Wei walked to the front center of the classroom and stood farther away to see the effect. "Yuanxin, Jialiang, can you help me see how it works?" Except for Jiang Yuanxin and Lu Jialiang, other students in the class also turned their heads to look behind them. "can!" "Brilliant!" “So this is the blackboard newspaper!” "There's also weather forecast and campus news!" Fang Wei smiled. With everyone's approval, he felt that his hard work over the past few days was not in vain. Before class started, Fang Wei hurried to the bathroom to wash his hands. When I looked outside, the sunshower had stopped and the rainbow in the sky became hazy. Two familiar figures slowly walked towards the teaching building from the campus canteen. They were Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi who were strolling downstairs. Seeing the old security guard with a bell hammer in his hand and a pipe in his mouth walking towards the pendant clock, the two girls also ran towards the teaching building with laughter... …… When Fang Wei washed his hands and returned to the classroom, Liu Zhiyi had already sat back in his seat. As she jogged along, the girl's face was red and her smooth forehead was a little wet, no one knew if it was from the sun shower or sweat. She was wiping her face slowly with a handkerchief. As soon as Fang Wei sat down, Liu Zhiyi took out a piece of crushed ice from the drawer. This is one of the most common snacks in childhood memories. It is made of frozen sweet liquid and wrapped in a two-stage transparent plastic package. Different colors represent different flavors. When eating, just bite open the package and slowly suck the ice cubes inside with your mouth. I thought she was going to eat it herself, but I didn't expect her to hand it to him. "For you to eat." "Huh? You don't want to eat?"
"Cai Ling and I just ate." "Did you treat me to this, or did Cai Ling treat me to this?" "I'll treat you together." "Then I won't be polite!" Through the transparent plastic packaging, the crushed ice is purple, so it should be grape flavored. It's said to taste like grape, but it specifically contains no grape ingredients. If you eat too much at once, your tongue will be stained purple. Although they all contain technological elements, they are still the favorites of young boys and girls. Fang Wei smiled and took the ice cream from her hand. This two-stage packaging structure is naturally designed for sharing. Fang Wei took the cold crushed ice in his hand, then grabbed one end with each hand and twisted it a few times in opposite directions. Then the plastic packaging cracked and the crushed ice became two pieces. He sucked one himself and handed the other one back to Liu Zhiyi. "I just ate with Cai Ling." "Do you guys share the food this way, too?" "Yes." "Then you are in luck. I'll give you half. Let's eat together." "It's class..." "Didn't you pass it to me too? We can just eat it together secretly." Fang Wei stuffed the other half into her hand. Looking at her expression, he knew that although she said that she and Cai Ling treated him together, it was probably she who treated both him and Cai Ling. Liu Zhiyi had no choice but to hold the half piece of broken ice in her hand. Her little hands were wet from the condensed water vapor on them, and her palms were cold. Before she could put the crushed ice into her mouth, Fang Wei stood up suddenly. "stand up!" "Hello, teacher—" The math teacher walked into the classroom, everyone stood up to greet her, and she also quickly stood up. I didn't know whether to hold the half piece of crushed ice in my hand or put it in the drawer. I was in a panic for a moment. She had no choice but to secretly look at how Fang Wei did it. Seeing that he put the hand holding the crushed ice behind his back, she also followed suit and hid it behind her back. "Hello students, please take a seat." "In today's class, let's talk about..." The class began. Fang Wei listened to the lecture with a pen in his right hand and hid crushed ice under the table in his left hand. He would quickly lower his head to suck on it from time to time. Liu Zhiyi followed suit and secretly ate snacks while listening to the class.
You know what, this is quite exciting! Compared to eating snacks during breaks, sneaking snacks during class seems to taste better! The cool, sour and sweet taste spread on the tip of her tongue, making even the boring class seem relaxing. The girl ate very slowly, and every time she took a small sip, the little white shoes under the table would shake slightly. She secretly glanced at Fang Wei, who looked "serious" and "listening attentively", and found it very funny! The teacher must not know that she and he are having an affair... He is also the class monitor! He didn't set a good example at all, and only led her astray... Don't do this next time. Liu Zhiyi thought to herself, and then while the teacher wasn't paying attention, she quickly raised her left hand and secretly sucked it. …… The last class this morning was originally music class, but Wen Susu probably switched classes with the music teacher and moved the afternoon Chinese class to the morning. If other teachers had adjusted the class schedule like this, the students would have some opinions, but since it is Teacher Wen’s class, no one has any opinions! The boys and girls' love for a teacher is so direct and pure. Even asked Wen Susu: "Teacher Wen, will you still teach the Chinese class this afternoon?" "The class has been changed. I need to return it to the music teacher." "Why don't you talk to the music teacher and just continue with your Chinese class!" It was not only the first Chinese class on "Spring" that Wen Susu drew on the blackboard and played games with everyone. In fact, in every Chinese class, she would come up with some new ideas to liven up the classroom atmosphere. This is why everyone liked Chinese class so much. After all, it is a relatively advanced educational method. Many times, Wen Susu herself is unsure whether everyone is just thinking it is fun or really listening carefully. After all, no other teacher teaches like her. Several times, she asked Fang Wei privately to find out the true situation of everyone. On the surface, the effect seems to be quite good, but what really shows the difference is the performance in the exams. It's exam-oriented education, there's nothing you can do about it. If everyone doesn't do well in the exams, not only will the school no longer agree to her teaching in this way, but she herself will also feel guilty and remorseful. But as a teacher, she couldn't tell her students about these pressures. It was no use telling other teachers, as they would only advise her to just focus on teaching and not make things so complicated, which would not only make her tired but would also not yield good results. As a newbie, Wen Susu is somewhat ambitious. At least before the midterm exam results come out, she will not easily give up her teaching method. Fortunately, the students like her teaching method very much. Whenever she walks into the classroom and sees their expectant and happy expressions, Wen Susu feels that the time she spends preparing lessons and thinking of so many new ideas to liven up the atmosphere is meaningful. This is also the greatest confidence for her to stick to her own ideas. …… "Even if the music teacher wants me to continue taking lessons, I can't." "Eh?" Wen Susu smiled and said, "After I finish my classes, I will go home to celebrate the festival at noon. It's a holiday, Mid-Autumn Festival. You all have a holiday, but you don't allow me, the teacher, to have a holiday?" That's it! After Wen Susu said this, everyone understood.
No wonder Teacher Wen changed the afternoon Chinese class to the morning. It turns out that we have to go home at noon. It has been two weeks since school started, and everyone knows that Teacher Wen is from Shanghai, which is a real big city. There are no shuttle buses, high-speed trains or flights from Baitan Island to Shanghai. The only way is to take a boat, which takes five hours for one trip. If you add in the time from home to the port, or from the port to school, it will probably take more than seven hours to get home. It was this girl from afar who became their new head teacher. "Teacher Wen, have you bought the ticket? You have to buy tickets in advance for such long-distance trips." "Don't worry, I've already bought it." "Mr. Wen, how long will it take you to get home?" "Well, maybe about seven hours." "Will you be able to get back in time for dinner?" "Haha, why are you still worried about me? I'm a teacher, I can't starve myself." Wen Susu was angry and amused, and she felt a little touched in her heart. "Then when will you be back, Mr. Wen?" "I came back early on Sunday morning." "Ah, this round trip took almost a whole day..." Young boys and girls all attach great importance to holidays. They wish they could count the time of holidays into seconds. When they think about how Teacher Wen has to spend nearly a day just to go home for the holidays in order to teach here, they don’t know what to feel for a moment... But during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I must go home. This is almost a belief that has been engraved in their genes since childhood. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, not only Teacher Wen has to go home for family reunion, but even their parents or brothers and sisters who work far away must go home to celebrate the festival if they have the chance. "Teacher Wen, what is the Mid-Autumn Festival like in Shanghai? Is it more lively than here?" "Hey, is Mid-Autumn Festival very lively here?" “It’s so lively!” "Shanghai may not be so lively, but there will be many small lanterns hanging on the streets, and then the family will have dinner together in the evening, take a walk in the park, and watch the moon or something like that." “Will you release sky lanterns?” "Haha, they don't allow it in the city." …… (End of this chapter)
