455: How Was She Doing in Huaqing? (1 More)

What is the experience of going from a small county to Huaqing?

In 1984, there were no forums and no ubiquitous online social platform. Apart from listening to those who were admitted to prestigious schools, I really couldn't find the answer.

Xia Xiaolan was not exempt from the custom. Standing at the school gate, she took a few photos and sent them to Principal Sun of Anqing No. 1 Middle School.

It was all before the military training, but the letter was very slow, and the letter was not received by Anqing until before the National Day. Xia Xiaolan has already started a new journey in the capital, and the principal of the county No. 1 Middle School, Sun, still remembers the glory of taking the college entrance examination.

The results came out in July, and it’s just over two months!

In August, Xia Xiaolan received the notice, less than two months ago, and Principal Sun felt that he was not overly excited, but a natural reaction.

After all, although Xia Xiaolan left Henan to go to the capital to go to school, the impact of her winning the top spot in the college entrance examination on Anqing County No. 1 Middle School has only just begun. This year, the number of students in County No. 1 Middle School has improved. Some students would have swung between No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 High School. This year, they will directly apply to County No. 1 High School.

If you fail the exam, go back to No. 2 High School.

This is not only the situation in Anqing County, even around Anqing County and Hedong County, there are students who come to study in No. 1 Middle School.

Principal Sun doesn't accept all students either. If the grades are too poor, he definitely doesn't want it.

These students are all attracted by the halo of the provincial champion. Anqing County No. 1 Middle School has a college entrance examination champion, and the teaching level is definitely not low. Anyway, no matter what you say, the school is also listed in the Provincial Department of Education, and in September this year, two new teachers who graduated from Henan Normal University were assigned.

Because Xia Xiaolan was interviewed by the provincial TV station in the reading room at the time, although the provincial department did not move, the Fengxian Education Bureau felt that the reading room of Anqing No. 1 Middle School was too shabby.

"A library should be built."

The leaders of the Education Bureau said to Principal Sun, would Principal Sun refuse it? Of course, it is very happy to agree!

Funding for the library was quickly approved, and although it was only a month since the school started, construction has now broken ground. Principal Sun also told Xia Xiaolan about this. She promised to donate some books to the library at the time, and she mentioned it again in this letter.

In 1984, it cost a lot of money to build a library. Filling up the library was also a huge expense.

A set of "The Complete Works of Lu Xun" published by the People's Literature Publishing House in 1981 costs 7.8 yuan for a single volume, and there are 16 books in this set!

If you want to buy this set of books, you will need to spend 124.8 yuan. The Xinhua Bookstore buys them at a price that’s not deceiving, and there is no discount.

Of course, this is a hardcover book, and a paperback book will be cheaper. For example, the world famous book "Jane Eyre" printed by Shanghai Translation Publishing House in 1980 costs only 2.05 yuan.

Buying books is not cheap. Teachers’ wages are not high. He still likes to pay for living expenses to buy books, including Principal Sun. His wife allows him to buy books every month, and the price cannot exceed 5 yuan. If he wants to buy expensive books, Principal Sun can only buy books. Save for two months. The Education Bureau of Fengxian City is not wealthy. It would be good to pay for Anqing County No. 1 Middle School to build a library. It is also a small building, and it has to be equipped with tables, chairs and benches, and then let the Education Bureau pay for the books in the library. It also came out. To be honest, they figured it out, and the funds are limited!

"Can you encourage everyone to donate books?"

If you have any old books at home, you can donate them to the library. One book will be published by one person, and the library of Anqing No. 1 Middle School will gradually fill up.

This is what the leaders of the Education Bureau told Principal Sun.

Xia Xiaolan hadn't gone to the capital to report at that time, thinking that the library was built, and she should have some spare money in her hand, so she told Principal Sun that she would donate a batch of books to the school. How much is a batch? Xia Xiaolan didn't make a decision, and she had to choose what books to donate, and it had to be suitable for high school students to read.

Probably some collections of works, world famous books, teaching supplementary materials, etc. can not only broaden the horizons, but also have a positive effect on learning.

Xia Xiaolan used "a batch" and said it at the time, but Principal Sun didn't care.

This time, when I wrote back to the county's No. 1 Middle School, Xia Xiaolan asked about the progress of the library's construction to see when it would be appropriate to donate. Principal Sun was very emotional. Although Xia Xiaolan had said during the thank-you banquet that she could make some money by doing self-employment outside the school, donating books was not a problem. Principal Sun still persuaded her to put more energy into Huaqing. to study.

Principal Sun wanted to come, but the "batch" of books that Xia Xiaolan referred to was only a few dozen.

If you don't choose any hardcover books, just buy cheap ones, which is a few hundred dollars. This amount of money is still within Xia Xiaolan's tolerance, right? It is rare that Xia Xiaolan did not forget her high school alma mater after graduating, so she went to Anqing County No. 1 Middle School for a year. She attended the school only a handful of times, but she did not forget the training of No. 1 Middle School. Principal Sun was very pleased. After replying to Xia Xiaolan, he also read some of the contents of the letter in front of the teachers and students of the whole school.

This is the college entrance examination champion to motivate students!

Most people do hear it well. In the era without the Internet, in places like Anqing County, South Henan Province, where would they go to listen to such experience sharing? Don't think about Kao Huaqing, but there are so many universities, other schools can still think about it.

Some of the students below were also staring at the ground - Liang Huan didn't know why he wanted to study at Anqing No. 1 Middle School. Although Xia Xiaolan went to the capital, the place seemed to be shrouded in the shadow of "Xia Xiaolan".

"Xia Xiaolan" is everywhere, and the teachers in the class usually talk about this name.

Photos and profiles are posted on the school's honor roll.

The banner at the school gate is also very brightly colored!

This is not annoying enough. Now I still call the students together, and even read the letter written by Xia Xiaolan. The theme is to learn the spirit of Xia Xiaolan. I went to Huaqing to study.

Thinking about the cultural construction of his alma mater, he wants to donate books to the library... Liang Huan is about to collapse! She wanted to go back to Hedong County, even if she was no longer Miss Liang who was in her original school, she didn't need to hear "Xia Xiaolan" all the time.

It's great to be admitted to Huaqing, isn't it?

How good can it be!

Huaqing University is full of high-achieving students. How can a bum like Xia Xiaolan be as good as the college entrance examination?

Liang Huan didn't believe that evil.

No matter how well Huaqing University is described in the letter, you may not be able to live in Huaqing! Liang Huan was full of malicious thoughts.

If she didn't think so, her self-esteem couldn't take it.

...

How Xia Xiaolan is doing at Huaqing University, not only Liang Huan is guessing, but Xia Ziyu and Wang Jianhua are also guessing. This year's National Day 35th anniversary celebration, students of Beijing Normal University can also participate in the celebration. However, there is no honor guard in the Teachers College, it is a simple procession.

Xia Ziyu and Wang Jianhua were among them.

When he heard about the scale of the parade in Huaqing, Wang Jianhua was still thinking, would he see Xia Xiaolan?

The freshman may also participate in the parade, but he doesn't know if there are so many people, whether he can recognize Xia Xiaolan - in order to take responsibility for Xia Ziyu, Wang Jianhua chose to let go of Xia Xiaolan. At that time, he told himself that Xia Ziyu was more suitable than Xia Xiaolan to be his like-minded life partner, and he never thought that Xia Xiaolan would be admitted to Huaqing in one year!

Wang Jianhua's heart is really complicated.
