Don't ask me where I came from (forty-one) Dear gardeners, thank you

Although the other two teachers did not give us a formal lesson, they were still very impressed.

One is Teacher Yuan, who did not teach us lessons, but only temporarily substituted for a self-study class, but it made a deep impression on me. She said she was a medical student and was close to her graduation internship when she had a problem.

She was on a late-night shift that day, taking turns managing a critically ill old man, and everyone was afraid that she would die while she was on duty. But the patient died when Teacher Yuan was in class, and the struggle before her death scared her to deal with it, so she gave up studying medicine and went to change to become a teacher. When I listened, I thought, a timid person like me, don't study medicine in the future.

Later, I became a teacher at the Post and Telecommunications School, and I didn't expect that after she retired, she would live in the new village of Moganshan Road next door to our school. In her days of solitude, I often went to her and sometimes spent the night at her house. For several years I made her birthdays, delivered cakes, and went to Kuiyuan Restaurant to eat longevity noodles until she left Hangzhou. Later, it may be that her son took her back to Jiaxing, and there was no contact again.

I would also like to mention a teacher who has not attended my class, his name is Chen Botong. A little old, walking, a little lame legs, it is said, it seems to be an old official, I really know very little about him, I don't know if he is in class? Or manage books?

I don't know how he knew about me. Once, after school, he took me to his house to read a book. As soon as I entered his house, "the east of the obedient dragon, the leek fried onion", this is the dialect of the northern Jiangsu region, take the current words, that is, wow, there are so many books, several bookshelves are stuffed, all thick big books. It's like a small library. He said, what books you love to read, take what books you want, read them, and then change them. Are you sure? Immediately, I drew out: Jane Eyre (English Charlotte Brontë), A Midsummer Night's Dream (English Shakespeare), Wuthering Heights (English Emily Brontë), Tess (Inhard), Notre Dame (Farhur), Les Misérables (Farsay Hugo), The Tall Old Man (Far balzac), Eugenie Grande (Farbarzac), The Vengeance of Monte Cristo (Fa Dumas), The Three Musketeers (Fa Dumas), la Traviata (Fa Dumas), Han Christophe (Farman Roland), Madame Farley (Fa Flaubert), Pretty Friends (Fa maupassant), c Red and Black (Fastenda)... With so many books, how can two school bags be put down? Teacher Chen Boda smiled, take a few books, and no one will rob you! After reading it, let's change it again.

I was so happy that summer! Do homework in the morning, take a little lunch break in the afternoon, go to the small swimming pool of Minfeng Factory to swim, go home an hour later, move out of the rattan lounge chair, put it in the shade of the mulberry tree, put the long hair that is slippery, hang it behind the rattan chair, open a small watermelon next to the armrest of the chair, it is my favorite Pinghu small watermelon, put a small spoon on it, and then open "Notre Dame de Paris", eat watermelon, and read books, this day is really a... In Sichuan dialect, it is "comfortable".

That summer, I don't know how many books I read, and now I look back on it happily.

What is a teacher?

Some people say that the teacher is the brightest Big Dipper in the sky, which points out the way forward for us; some people say that the teacher is the coolest mountain spring in the mountains, watering our small saplings with fragrant nectar juice; some people say that the teacher is a lush leaf, with his powerful body and the flower bones that protect us in the future. I said, the teacher is the hard gardener, we are the flowers, we grow healthily and vigorously under the care of the teacher's watering, no matter whether the seed can be harvested in the future, the gardener will do his best to give him nutrition, give him water, give him oxygen, give him all he needs, at the expense of himself, like a candle, burn yourself, light others! Thank you! Hats off to you!
