Chapter three hundred and forty fourth home visit
The old lady who sold sauerkraut said that she left and mentioned the little girl of the Xia family.
The old man's reminder was prompt. When the old woman heard the old man's cough, she immediately shut up and stopped talking.
An Zixi guessed that this little girl in the Xia family should be Lao Xia’s sister. Something happened to the Xia family is likely to be caused by her.
She pretended not to hear it and led the topic elsewhere, "Auntie, your pickled cabbage is so pickled, I heard many people mention it."
The aunt was a slut and immediately said, "Of course, I learned this skill from my mother. Not to mention the village, even the whole town is the only one. Girl, I can not only pickle sauerkraut, but also make all kinds of delicious pickles."
When the old man heard that the topic they were talking about was safer, he didn't say anything. His old wife was hard-working, diligent and clean, and everything was fine, but her mouth was too broken and she quarreled every day. If she hadn't been alert just now, she would have talked about the messy things in the village again.
Alas, they are just honest ordinary people, who can they care about?
The donkey cart didn't leave quickly, and it took almost two hours to go on the road. An Zixi was wearing a blanket and Shao Jinyang was wearing a coat. He listened to the aunt's stand-up comedy, but he didn't feel lonely or cold.
As soon as the donkey cart entered the village, Anzixi started inquiring.
"Auntie, the first time I've been here, I don't know where the children's homes are. Can you take me over later?"
"Okay, what's this?"
The old man was a little unhappy, but when he thought that An Zixi was a teacher in the town, he didn't say anything else. The villagers were all aware of it. Even if they didn't take it, they would know after a little inquiry.
"Hey, there is the Lu boy's house in front of you, let's get off here." The aunt greeted enthusiastically: "Old man, stop, stop."
The old man reluctantly drank his donkey, and while An Zixi and Shao Jinyang got out of the car, he whispered to his wife: "You can control your mouth in a while, don't snore everything."
"I know, don't worry!" The aunt didn't take this to heart and turned around and was about to get off the car.
The old man immediately pulled her sleeve and repeatedly instructed: "You can be careless with your mouth. If you say something you shouldn't say, it's something that our family can afford."
"Don't worry, I know. Look at how delicate that girl looks, she is not a troublesome person. I said the beginning, but they didn't ask anything! She is a teacher and came to visit her home. You think she is the old lady, and she is just talking to her wife all day long."
The old man snorted, "It's good that you know." Then he let go of her sleeves.
The aunt got off the bus quickly.
"Let's go, I'll take you there."
The village was a bit desolate in winter. The three of them climbed over a small slope that was not high and then arrived at Lu Jie's home.
The Lu family's courtyard walls were made of stones, and the yard was clean and neatly packed with firewood under the eaves. When you look at this family, you will know that they are good at living, clean and diligent.
"Old Han, Jia Feng, are you at home? There is a distinguished guest here."
A woman in her forties walked out of the house. Although she had two patches on her outer coat, she was washed cleanly.
The woman was wrapped in a blue headscarf on her head, looking old, and had two tapes of tape wrapped around her hands. After a closer look, she could see a small hole in her finger.
"Ah, Aunt San, Lao Han is not at home, you are..."
"Hey, this is your third-year-old teacher who came to visit home." The aunt was a very kind person and said to An Zixi: "This is the mother of that boy Lu Jie."
A look of worry flashed across Lu Jie's mother's face, "Teacher, is that boy causing trouble at school? Did he break into the goods?"
An Zixi felt a little disgusted, but the stage was set up, and there was no reason not to continue singing. She quickly waved her hand and comforted her: "No, we are just a routine home visit, mainly looking at the children's homes, and reporting to parents about their children's situation at school."
When Lu Jie's mother heard that it was this, she was not as nervous as before. "Teacher, we are talking in the room, it's cold outside, and we are talking in the room."
Although the Lu family has limited conditions, they cleaned the house spotlessly and cleaned the house inside and outside, which made people feel very comfortable to see.
Lu Jie's mother brought two cups of hot water to An Zixi and Shao Jinyang, "There is nothing good at home, teacher, you drink water."
The water cup was clean and even An Zixi couldn't find any problem. She picked up the water cup and took a sip. Sure enough, she saw Lu Jie Niang showing a happy smile.
People in this era are still very simple. They respect teachers and want you to beat their children eight times a day to prove that the teacher is disciplining their children, and parents are grateful. Unlike later generations, teachers and students may be said to be corporal punishment when speaking loudly.
"Mom Lu Jie, the child performs well in school, you don't have to be so nervous."
"Oh." Lu Jie's mother rubbed her hands with some embarrassment, "Or what if I call the child's father over? The teacher will tell him?"
"It's the same as anyone. The child is yours. Don't you understand him?" An Zixi said: "Actually, Lu Jie performed very well in school."
However, this child's grades were not very good and failed several subjects. Teacher Hu's notebook focused on the child's grades.
"Teacher, I know that our San'er is a little stupid and has poor grades." Speaking of this, Lu Jie's mother was also quite worried, "But we are not educated, and we can't recognize a few words in big words, so we can't teach him."
An Zixi said, "Mom Lu Jie, don't worry. Teaching children to study is our teacher's business. We will definitely do our best to help the children. Although Lu Jie's grades are average, this child is kind and diligent, and has many highlights. Teaching and educating people naturally requires children to learn knowledge and skills, but learning to be a person who is useful to society is also important. It is not only children who study well that can become useful to society."
The words not only comforted Lu Jie's mother, but also stimulated the aunt who sold sauerkraut.
"Oh!" The aunt patted her thigh, "Or it would be that the teacher speaks well! I was happy after hearing this. Jiafeng, if you have such a teacher teaching in school, just put your heart in your stomach!"
Lu Jie's mother kept nodding and said, "Thanks to the teacher."
An Zixi was covered in black lines and felt that the topic seemed to be a bit off the line.
She took out the notebook, wrote and painted it on it twice, and then said, "Then let's go here first today. I have to go to another child's house to take a look."
