Unconsciously, my life path has gone through a flower armour, as if in a dream, and when I wake up, I am old. However, the past is vividly remembered, and the flowers are scattered with thoughts, recalling the vibrant and fiery life of our middle school days from another perspective.
Who can remember the moment when they entered the gates of Longshengzhuang Middle School? Will you forget the hall of legend? The school gate sits east to west, and the gate] is flanked by tall poplars, lush and lush. You will be greeted by the only surviving building, the Auditorium. On the left and right sides of the poplar are the classrooms where we can receive knowledge, further inside are the teacher's office and library reading room, and on the right are the courts and sports fields where the whole school carries out various activities. To the east of the playground is the dormitory for residential students. In this prestigious institution, we spent six years in middle school. Here I learned knowledge and learned the ability to do things.
In junior high school, our class was class 59, the first class teacher was Yang Wang, mathematics Duan Shengcai, Chinese Hong Jingkun, Wang Pan, history Lu Xuzhou, geography Du Maorong, chemistry Zhang Zhizhong, physics Zhang Guofu, politics Sun Hanchen, music Zhang Naiyan, sports Xu Ganlin. After more than fifty years, the voice and smile of these teachers are often purple in front of their eyes, their teaching style and lecture style, body language, board book characteristics, and meticulous teaching spirit. My life of study and work has accompanied me.
I remember that when I first entered school, everything was full of curiosity, which changed my desire to seek a job. However, in addition to studying, things that backfired, and it was unforgettable to the chest. In those days, cultural knowledge was inextricably linked to political movements, "holes dug. Accumulate grain and do not seek hegemony", learn culture during the day, and dig tunnels at night.
Our classroom is located close to the easternmost part of the south city of the school. In the right corner of the classroom podium, dig down more than three meters to the west and southeast, in the study group as a unit, respectively, three groups per day, one group to dig underneath, the other two groups rest and do logistical support. Rotate every two hours. Boys dig up girls to hang dirt, and class cadres are responsible for coordination. Every day, I received kerosene lamps, candles, matches, etc. from Mr. Guo Yaoxian of the General Affairs Division.
Each group performed positively. Dry timeout, every shift out of the hole, everyone is to make the kerosene smoke face black, under the two nostrils like two large black caterpillars, coughing out a thick kerosene smell of thick black phlegm in the throat, it is really uncomfortable. Despite this in order to show positive performance, there is no retreat and laziness, they are desperately rushing to do it.
What makes us happiest is that when we opened the tunnel with other classes, we listened to the sound of "bang bang bang" on the other side, and we were eager to dig through it in one breath. Classmates who changed classes were reluctant to go home to share the happiness, and put the desks together in the classroom. Boys and girls are not so feudal, usually do not even dare to say words, in this situation under the same roof, the same plate of "Kang" pieces lying down snoring loudly, pure love into people's sleep. Recalling this past is still fresh, like yesterday.
In the joint efforts of the whole school, teachers and students have been working hard for more than two months, and the tunnels of Longshengzhuang Middle School are crisscrossed from the vegetable field in the south to the classrooms in the northwest and the Longshengzhuang School, as well as mechanical penetration. We also conducted a war readiness exercise and fulfilled the strategic task of "preparing for the people when we are old and preparing for the famine," and soon we began to study normal cultural classes.
At that time, the teaching staff of our school was full of talents, and the outstanding teachers of various subjects included Wang Ling, Hong Jingkun, Tao Jingwen, Ding Wanjin, Hao Buxu, Hao Fuliang, Ren Ruiyuan, Du Maorong, Zhang Guofu, Zhang Zhizhong, Lu Xuzhou, Duan Shengcai, Shi Guohua, Chen Jun, Kang Shengyuan, Song Jihe, Sun Hanchen, Bai Huashan, Fan Ying, Xu Ganlin, Zhang Naiyan, etc. The teaching staff is strong and knowledgeable. With my faint memory, I thought of these wonderful teachers. We can have the teachings of such a group of excellent teachers, feel proud and proud from the heart, and still be able to miss the time with them(s) to this day, often sleepless.
This can also show that in the long river of Longshengzhuang's century-old history and the thick accumulation of excellent culture, countless popular figures have been created. Longshengzhuang Middle School has bred tens of thousands of outstanding talents with her broad mind.
After the school's study life stabilized, I mistakenly entered the school literary and art team.
At the beginning of the formation of the literary and artistic team, we rehearsed small programs such as song and dance. Subsequently, the school decided to rehearse the opera "Liu Hulan", Principal Cui personally coordinated, Teacher Zhang Zhizhong as the director, Teacher Cang Fucheng led Pang Runming, Chen Runzhao and other production sets, Teacher Zhang Naiyan was responsible for music and dance, Teacher Shi Guohua was responsible for the band, Teacher Zhang Guofu was responsible for the lighting effects, and Teachers Xu Ganlin, Li Deyi, Kang Shengyuan and other teachers played the performances of positive and negative characters respectively. The whole school's teachers, students and staff are basically able to contribute, can be described as the general mobilization of teachers and students, sleep and forget to eat day and night, using holidays, extracurricular activities and other time, about a month, stage, set, props, costumes, lighting, effects, etc. are fully prepared, and the rehearsal is also successfully performed in the stage of integration.
The teachers and students who participated in the rehearsal, in addition to completing their respective teaching and learning tasks every day, the teachers took the lead in setting an example, meticulously memorizing the lines word by word, deliberating on each action, the actors occupying places and learning to sing the songs in the play. In particular, Xu Ganlin and Li Dewenyi, who play the role of villains, dress up in a wonderful way, and are fascinated, respectively, setting off the decent characters incomparably tall. The teachers are not only excellent in teaching culture classes, but also versatile, Principal Cui's makeup skills, Shi Guohua's teacher Ban Hu, percussion, and Hao Fuliang's martial arts action design, which are really talented.
In the years and months of the national study of singing model plays, we entered the rehearsal of the modern Modern Peking Opera "Red Lantern", which was a very classic play, when the red soldier propaganda team of the whole commune had "Sha Jiabang", and the big propaganda team had the transplant drama "Wise Tiger Mountain". We rehearsed "Red Lantern". There were movies of the Central Peking Theater before, and we could only hold the script in our hands and listen to the records. We must not be sloppy in the slightest, nor can we make mistakes in our words; if we are wrong, we will make "political mistakes." Rehearsed entirely by the students, Mandarin Tao Bai is the key, principal Cui pulled Jing Hu Jing Jing's board to teach singing and Dao Bai one by one. The students listened to the records repeatedly and learned to sing each paragraph. After listening to it repeatedly, almost all of the cast members memorized the entire script, laying a solid foundation for rehearsal. In the process of rehearsal, it was urgent to form a percussion band, and then I found Zhang Hanwen, Zhang Yusheng, Wang Jianguo, Wang Cunlin, He Yong and others from the class to form a percussion band. Teacher Shi Guohua also compiled the musical score for us, and personally passed on the help and guidance, hand-in-hand to teach the drumming board skills. After repeated run-in exercises, the wenwu field is divided into training until the joint training. In one fell swoop, he successfully rehearsed and familiarized himself with the play, and later performed in the school and commune auditorium, and later went to the county seat of Fengzhen to perform successfully, and was received and praised by the county leaders.
Our Longshengzhuang Middle School not only has a deep cultural heritage, but also has a long reputation for sports activities. That is, the sports team dominated by Teachers Fan Ying and Xu Ganlin is outstanding, and the sports stars are well-known. In the spring, summer and autumn, the students on the basketball court are full of life and dribbling, and the flow of people on the skating rink in winter is as fast as a shooting star.
When winter came, we were led by Teacher Xu in a vegetable field in the southeast corner of the school. First level the land, remove the plant residue, bulldoze and then flood the shoal, and then pour water on the ground layer by layer after freezing. At first, we sprinkled water with buckets and washbasins until we could not see the land forming ice surface, and repeatedly froze and poured until we could move on the ice. At that time, as long as we had time to go to the ice rink, every time we finished the work, the hands were red, the clothes and shoes were wet, and that was how we still enjoyed it and persevered every day. Later, the method of pouring ice was improved, Teacher Xu did not know where to get a small cart, changed a large oil drum into a water tank, welded a thin iron pipe at one end, and then connected a small car tire, tied a wooden stick, water flowed out of the trolley, one person pulled the cart and one person swung the water pipe back and forth, saving a lot of effort while walking. Twice a day in the morning and evening, we pulled a modified water tanker truck, enduring the cold, and pouring ice in circles. On the ice rink where we personally participated in the watering, teachers and students were able to speed skate, play ice hockey, and figure skating. The teachers and students are skillful in sliding, flying fast on the ice, sometimes fast and sometimes stopping urgently, especially on the curves. In particular, ice hockey is a difficult start, we take down the broken speed skating knife and install the ice hockey knife, make our own ice hockey clubs, practice unremittingly, take the ball over people, stop urgently, draw arcs left and right, stare at people, attack and defend and other tactical actions.
Before New Year's Day in 1974, Teacher Xu, who had been transferred to Fengzhen, suddenly came to Longshengzhuang Middle School. He was the team member who convened the Formation of Fengzhen County to participate in the All-League Ice Games. At that time, Li Peixian, Cui Ming, An Guimei, Liu Yafen and I were playing ice hockey. We went to Feng town to participate in the training. Saying that it was a training camp, they also held a meeting together, stayed at the county guest house in the evening, and took the train to the Jining League Sports Committee the next day to report to participate in the competition. Arrived at the Jining League Sports Committee Guest House and found the Fengzhen team's residence, wow! I actually formed a representative team with the leaders of the sports circles in Fengzhen County, including Suo Zhong, Wang Jinming, Zhao Jiuzhou, Zhao Yaozhong and other celebrities in the sports circles of Fengzhen County, while Li Zhong and I were less than 20 years old, still students, these adults have always been our most respected division commanders. Mr. Xu is our team leader and coach and team member, and it is a great honor to be able to play ice hockey with these respected teachers.
In that era, the cultural achievements of our students in Longshengzhuang Middle School were among the best in the county and even in the whole league. Therefore, in the three years after the reform of China's enrollment system, thousands of students have been admitted to colleges and universities, and some have also gone abroad for further study. They have stepped into well-known institutions throughout the country and become the pillars of the country, and some have taken up leading posts at all levels of government, contributing their due wisdom and wisdom to the reform and opening up of China's socialist motherland.
Now we are standing on the campus of the past, and the scenes of the past have passed through one scene after another, constantly lingering on the glorious years. We will cherish the memory of those teachers who have preached to us, sincerely comfort those who have gone to the west of the crane to the ancestors, and wish you all the surviving teachers health and longevity.
