Were you ever afraid of the dark when you were a kid?
I have never been afraid of the dark, because Chun Ling told me that in the dark, her shadow will protect me, and then look up at the sky, maybe you can see the moon at a turn. Chun Ling is no one else, it is my mother.
That night, in 2001, I sat alone in front of the window, surrounded by silence, and the bright moon passed through the thin clouds.
"Now no one can say how the distribution policy has changed, during this time you are sitting idly at home, why don't you go to the primary school to teach for a period of time?" Dad broke the silence and said to me.
"Yes, first of all, you can learn some knowledge, long knowledge, and another 150 yuan a month!" Mom continued.
Don't mention the money, I am more angry when I mention the money, that is also called salary? The subsidy is almost the same, 150 yuan, for boys, a few bottles of beer, for girls who love clothes, only two clothes and a pair of leather shoes.
I remained silent.
"What are you afraid of?" There is nothing that cannot be changed, like this moon, sometimes round, sometimes bent, sometimes you can't see it, you walk out of this alley from our house, can't you see the moon again when you turn a corner? ”
The corner is the moon! The simple and simple words expressed my mother's expectations of me, and the words were on my heart. Oh, yes! Didn't I also grow up on the shoulders of my teachers?
I walked into the school with mixed feelings, and when I saw the children's eyes hungry for knowledge, the pride of being a new teacher came to me. In the days that followed, I tried my best to give the children a good lesson, not only for that pride, but also for the heavy responsibility on my shoulders. I know that I can't mislead people, and I am determined to be kind to life, to be kind to myself, and to make life full of sunshine and vitality.
The memory goes around slowly, I have worked inadvertently for so many years, I am also a wife, a mother, the tree is still there, the old yard is still there, I am still in front of the "child king", only she left. How many times in the dream, the past has been wet with thoughts, and when I think of it occasionally, my thoughts are blowing wildly.
The moon crept into the sky and hid in the faint clouds, and I was overjoyed, because I knew that the bend was the moon!
