In today's society, the tradition of respecting teachers and re-teaching is not as extensive as in ancient times, and the relationship between teachers and students tends to be weak, and many students have not contacted teachers after graduation, let alone returned the favor of teachers. However, there are still students in this world who love the teacher and return the favor of the teacher This student mentioned in this article, the touching story of his repaying the teacher's kindness, is no less than that of the ancients.
The student who bought a house for the teacher is named Chen Zhide, who is now a high-achieving student who graduated from the Daqing Petroleum Research Institute, has worked for many years, and is also a party figure in the unit. He was able to achieve where he is today, starting from a teacher.
Teacher Zhang Xiurong
Chen Zhide said: "If it weren't for Teacher Zhang, I would have worked part-time after graduating from junior high school, and I certainly wouldn't be today." The teacher He said was his junior high school class teacher, Teacher Zhang Xiurong.
After graduating from college, I returned to my hometown and did my best to study for free
In 1973, Zhang Xiurong graduated from university. She did not choose to work hard in the city like most of her classmates, but held a heart to return to her hometown. Although Wuchuan County, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, is remote, it is her haunted hometown. She came to a local school and became a junior high school math teacher.
During the teaching period, she not only taught properly, but also was gentle and patient with the students, and was quickly loved by the students. In September 1978, Zhang Xiurong became the class teacher. This is her first time as a class teacher, in the face of this group of children, she is both passionate and deeply responsible, she secretly made up her mind in her heart, she must do her best to teach them well, help them enter the key high school, have a better future.
In addition to preparing for classes and lecturing, Zhang Xiurong thought that the way to improve students' grades was to help students make up lessons. Every day after school at 6:30 p.m., Zhang Xiurong began to tutor. Tuition is voluntary, and in the cram class, Zhang Xiurong will solve the problems encountered in the homework, explain the methods of solving the problems, and review the key points of the knowledge learned.
At that time, there was a boy named Chen Zhide in the class, his family was relatively poor, but he studied diligently, and his academic performance was often among the best, and Zhang Xiurong liked this boy very much. She also recalled that at the end of each cram class, Chen Zhide had questions to answer for himself, and was often the last to leave the classroom.
The poverty of the family has aroused his desire for knowledge more and more, and for this kind of poor and hard-working student, Zhang Xiurong thought of himself, and psychologically unconsciously willing to pay more effort for such a student.
With the help of Zhang Xiurong, the final exam of the second year of junior high school, the students' grades have made significant progress, seeing the final results, Zhang Xiurong feels that her own hard work this year has not been in vain, she is very relieved in her heart, but the burden can not be put down, the third year of junior high school is the key, but also to double the effort, with these children admitted to the key high school, this is her goal, but also expectations.
Go out of your way to advise parents and give students the opportunity to learn
The beginning of the third year of junior high school came, on the day of the beginning of the school, the students sat in the classroom, Zhang Xiurong began the first class of the third grade with great anticipation, before the class, she counted the number of people in the class as usual, and reported one by one.
"What about Chen Zhide?" Zhang Xiurong asked the other students in the class, and the students all shook their heads. Teacher Zhang thought that he had misremembered the registration time, but in the next two days, Chen Zhide still did not come, and Teacher Zhang was in a hurry. In those days, many families did not have telephones, and Zhang Xiurong found the address of Chen Zhide's home from the Academic Affairs Office and prepared to visit his home.
Chen Zhide's family lives in Yinjiagou Village, and it takes 5 miles to get there from the county seat. In that era, the traffic was not convenient, the county to the countryside need to wait for buses and buses, in order to save road fares, on the weekend, Zhang Xiurong embarked on a bicycle to Chen Zhide's home. This road is very difficult to walk, the mountain road can only push the cart forward, it took a morning, Zhang Xiurong to find Chen Zhide's home.
When Zhang Xiurong appeared at the door of Chen's house, Chen Zhide was still working at the door, he heard a familiar voice calling his name, looked up and was stunned, he never expected it to be Zhang Xiurong. Chen Zhide's parents were also at home, and after they learned of Zhang Xiurong's intentions, they bowed their heads in shame, and Zhang Xiurong suddenly understood.
The Chen family has six children, but only two people in the family make money, so the children's tuition fees have become a big problem. In previous years, his parents were in good health, but this year, Chen's mother was sick, and Chen's father still had to earn money to treat Chen's mother, so there was really no way but to let Chen Zhide drop out of school to work and share the economic pressure.
Although Chen's father had great difficulties, Zhang Xiurong really couldn't bear chen Zhide's dropout, and she knew that once she dropped out of school, Chen Zhide would have a hard time getting out of this poor place in this life.
She vigorously persuaded Father Chen, saying that she could not help but shed tears later, and said meaningfully: "Zhide studied so well, he can definitely be admitted to the university, as long as he is admitted to the university, he can completely get rid of poverty and change his destiny." If you let him work now, where is the future? Won't it be the same as you are now? ”
Father Chen was moved by this remark, and he could not let the child follow his own old path, and even if he had no money, he would have to provide him with education.
Regaining the opportunity to study, Chen Zhide cherishes it very much, and he wants to repay the hard-won learning opportunity brought to him by Teacher Zhang with actual results, and also to repay the hard-earned hard-earned money of his parents. After a whole year of hard study in junior high school, Chen Zhide lived up to expectations and was admitted to a key high school.
His fate is uncertain, and he is proud to be admitted to university
After being admitted to the key high school, Chen Zhide studied hard as always, but just when Chen Zhide was struggling for the college entrance examination and for his college dream, his mother unfortunately died of illness.
The pain of losing his loved ones made Chen Zhide feel pained and felt that everything had lost its meaning for a while. After Zhang Xiurong heard about it, he comforted Chen Zhide in time and encouraged him to come out of the pain, live strongly, and not bow to fate. Hearing Teacher Zhang's comfort and encouragement, Chen Zhide felt for the first time that this amiable teacher was like his dead mother, so he got some comfort in his heart. Soon after, Chen Zhide came out of his grief and re-established his belief in entering the university. He worked harder and studied harder than ever.
In the summer of 1982, the college entrance examination that changed the fate of ordinary people came, chen Zhide remembered Zhang Xiurong's words of encouragement before the exam, believe in himself, don't be nervous, and take the exam as usual. In the end, he calmly responded to the battle and played normally. When the results of the college entrance examination were announced, Chen Zhide ranked second in the county in total scores, and the list wrote his name and the institution he was admitted to, Changchun Institute of Geology.

When Chen Zhide told Zhang Xiurong the news of the admission, the two were as excited as the generals and soldiers who had returned from a triumphant battle, and Chen Zhide knew that without Zhang Xiurong, a well-guided general, there would be no victorious soldier of his own. When the college acceptance letter was handed to Father Chen, his eyes blurred.
In the '80s, going to college was a luxury for rural kids. "The baby is out of breath, and the spirit of the wife in heaven can be relieved."
"Knowledge can change destiny!" Chen Zhide always remembered the words said by the teacher, and he really felt it at this time. The family is poor, the father's illness, and when he graduates from college, everything will change.

Unfortunately, Chen Zhide did not see him graduate from college, and in his freshman year, Chen Zhide died of illness, and Chen Zhide suffered from bereavement again. Losing his father, the family has no economic support, and can only rely on relatives and brothers to go out to work to earn money to pay for their own tuition, as for living expenses, they need to rely on their own work-study.
Far from home, he was lonely and lonely, and the loss of his parents made him even more mentally devastated. After Zhang Xiurong learned of this bad news, he comforted and encouraged him with letter after letter, supporting him to cheer up, and no matter how hard it was, he had to finish college.
Thousands of miles to send shoes to warm people's hearts, birthday to send room to repay the teacher's kindness
In 1982, the winter in Changchun was very cold, but Chen Zhide only had a pair of single shoes, his feet were frozen and cracked, walking was painful, and he was reluctant to buy cotton shoes for the winter, and the harsh environment from childhood cultivated his strong character and strong self-esteem, although life was tight, he never refused to borrow money from anyone.
Zhang Xiurong, who has always cared for Chen Zhide, learned about this situation from his classmates and was very worried about Chen Zhide, how can he not buy shoes? Such a cold day, thinking of this, Zhang Xiurong could not sleep all night. The next day, she got up early in the morning and spent 20 yuan to buy shoes and hats, and took them to the post office to send to Chen Zhide, she was worried that Chen Zhide would not ask for this money, so she attached a letter, telling Chen Zhide to accept it, otherwise don't come to see her in the future.
20 yuan is nothing now, but 38 years ago, 20 yuan was more than Zhang Xiurong's salary for half a month. Receiving the money sent by the teacher, Chen Zhide was so moved that he could not speak, this 20 yuan, like a warm stove in the cold winter, not only warmed his feet, but also warmed his heart, and the ice and snow of Changchun were also melted by this kindness. At this time, Teacher Zhang was not only a teacher, but also his relatives in his eyes. Chen Zhide kept this dripping grace in his heart and looked forward to repaying it one day.
After graduating from university, Chen Zhide was successfully admitted to the master's degree of Daqing Petroleum Research Institute, and after pursuing a master's degree, he studied for a doctorate successively until 2003, and returned to Changchun to work after graduation. Although he made his home in other places, Chen Zhide would return to his hometown to visit Teacher Zhang every New Year, and he would bring many gifts to express his heart every time he came to the door.
In 2007, Zhang Xiurong was already 60 years old, and when it was almost her 60th birthday, the students discussed in advance to celebrate her birthday together. On his birthday, the students returned from all over the world to celebrate Zhang Xiurong's birthday. Unfortunately, Chen Zhide was not present. Why didn't he come?
Just when Zhang Xiurong was thinking about him, he received a call from Chen Zhide, in which Chen Zhide expressed his birthday wishes for Teacher Zhang, and revealed that he could not arrive in time because of his official business trip, but he prepared a birthday gift and returned from a business trip to supply the teacher. Zhang Xiurong did not care about any gifts, but hoped to see the student on his birthday, so when Chen Zhide said that he wanted to make up for the birthday gift, she did not pay attention to it.
Soon after, Chen Zhide came to Zhang Xiurong's home, when he took out 100,000 yuan in cash and said that he wanted to buy a house for the teacher as a birthday gift, Zhang Xiurong was stunned, she did not expect that The birthday gift that Chen Zhide said was such a big gift, and she said that she would not accept anything.
Chen Zhide said that he can have today, thanks to the original teacher Zhang Xiurong prevented him from dropping out of school, in the grief of losing his parents, it is also Teacher Zhang's continuous encouragement and help him to go to college and complete his studies. He has always kept this kindness of the teacher in mind, and will double his reward when he has the ability. Seeing that the teacher still lived in a dilapidated old house for decades, I wanted to buy a house for the teacher to enjoy his old age, and he was also relieved in his heart.
But Chen Zhide's insistence, the house has been bought, Zhang Xiurong excitedly sighed, Chen Zhide, as a student, is not his own children, he will buy a house for himself to thank him, this gift is too heavy, as a teacher, caring for students is just out of heart, did not want any return ah.
Chen Zhide gave Zhang Xiurong a moon cake
Chen Zhide treated Teacher Zhang as his own biological parents, from the time he lost his parents, when he received the 20 yuan, Teacher Zhang was already half a mother in his heart.
epilogue
The ancients respected the teacher, once said that a day for the teacher for life as a father, Chen Zhide achieved a day as a teacher, lifelong mother. It is rare in the world to have such a person who knows how to repay the favor, and Zhang Xiurong is really fortunate to be his teacher. Most of us do not need to buy a house for the teacher like Chen Zhide, what we can do is not to forget the teacher after graduation, give the teacher a holiday greeting, a usual care, a birthday blessing, and continue a teacher-student relationship, that is, the reward for the teacher' kindness.
