After coming out of the dormitory, Jin Xiaoyu knew that Xiang Tianying was still tutoring students. Since he was tutoring, she didn't want to disturb him, so he walked around the snack street outside the school. Although everything looked clean and hygienic, even she was most worried about it.
There is no need to worry about the tableware - the tableware here is completely disposable: banana leaves are used for cakes and bait; bamboo bowls are used for soup and noodles. The diameter of the bamboo is amazing enough.
However, she was still wary of the various snacks in front of her. However, the owner of the "dinner treat" was still missing. She felt a little impatient and bought a bowl of fish ball noodle paste to satisfy her hunger.
When I came back from eating the noodle paste, I found that Xiang Tianying was still talking happily. Jin Xiaoyu didn't want to wait any longer, so she wandered around the campus - after all, this was where she would work in the future.
Originally, for the convenience of construction, there was a temporary road between the playground and the teaching building. After the staff dormitory behind the school was completed, this road was closed inside the campus. Bypassing the simple canteen next to the playground, a piece of vegetables appeared in front of me.
The main activity of the students' labor class is to grow vegetables - this is a very professional style.
It is said to be a vegetable field, not a few acres of garden, but more than 30 acres of land including paddy fields. Not only vegetables are grown, but also various food crops and fruits. A large number of them are planted with pineapples.
.
Speaking of which, Taiwan in the old days was famous for its high-breed pineapples. I wonder if they are "pineapples" grown here? Maybe some elders brought seedlings or something...
Jin Xiaoyu was wandering around the campus while diverging his thoughts. This campus is a bit ridiculously big. According to the standards of the old time and space, it covers an area enough for six thousand students to study. Therefore, not only does the campus have vegetable gardens and farmland, but there are also livestock
Pig farms and chicken farms. This is a step further than the "student farmers" in Fangcaodi.
It's getting late, the torch cage is burning, and the students are jumping up and down on the playground. Jin Xiaoyu feels that the students here are more "wild" than those in Fangcaodi? Probably because the learning atmosphere here is not strong, and the children's nature
Didn't suffer too much repression.
Of course, being "wild" enough means that the students here have relatively poor academic performance. Jin Xiaoyu knows that more than 90% of the students who have passed the exam from Kaohsiung National School to Fangcao College are at the bottom of their class. So far, only
One person enters the secondary school. To be honest, if it were not for the need for counterpart support, most of these high school graduates would not even be able to pass the simple normal school.
She also noticed another situation, that is, although Kaohsiung National School is a junior primary school, there are many children aged 12 or 13, accounting for at least half. In contrast, less than half of the school-age children. I don’t know this.
Is it related to the local population structure?
Kaohsiung National School now has only three grades and more than 600 students. Compared with the empty campus, there are only a handful of people. This time Jin Xiaoyu brought a group of naturalized teachers, and the task was to help Xiang Tianying build the high school elementary school.
By the way, we will double the student base. Of course, the quality of teaching must also be improved. Students in Kaohsiung National School generally have poor mathematics skills. Considering that Comrade Xiang Tianying is a liberal arts student, it is reasonable that his mathematics, physics and chemistry skills are not good.
After all, she is a science student, and she was the top science student in the village back then. There should be no problem in doing a good job in primary school mathematics education.
There was a commotion behind her, and a dozen students walked out of the teaching building. Jin Xiaoyu guessed that Xiang Tianying had finished class. She couldn't wait for Xiang Tianying to come and "invite" her, so she went straight to the office.
Jin Xiaoyu went up to the second floor, and when he arrived at the door of the office, he happened to meet Xiao Xiang, Xiang Tianying's life secretary, coming out.
Xiao Xiang was stunned for a moment: "Chief Jin, have you come to Kaohsiung?"
Jin Xiaoyu smiled bitterly and said: "I've been here for a long time! Is Xiang Tianying here? He said he wanted to treat me to dinner..."
Xiao Xiang had a "bad" expression on his face and hurriedly walked inside. This expression made Jin Xiaoyu have some bad thoughts: "Could it be that this Tianying guy is not tutoring homework, but
With the female students..."
Before her reverie ended, Xiao Xiang had already knocked on the door of the office and hurriedly said: "Teacher Xiang, Chief Jin is here."
"Please come in." Xiang Tianying replied unhurriedly from inside.
Xiao Xiang opened the door, and Jin Xiaoyu couldn't help but get angry. It turned out that Xiang Tianying and a middle-aged man were holding teacups in each hand, sitting opposite each other, and were playing Go.
You said you invited me to dinner, so you must have forgotten all about it, right?! Jin Xiaoyu couldn't laugh or cry. Just when he was about to insult him, Xiang Tianying smiled and turned a blind eye and said, "Mr. Cheng, you lose!"
The old man said: "This is wrong, double three is forbidden."
Only then did Jin Xiaoyu realize that the two men were playing Go backgammon.
Xiang Tianying quickly put away the chess pieces: "Who said there are forbidden moves? Mr. Cheng, please go ahead. Teacher Jin and I have something to do."
The middle-aged man smiled, handed over to Jin Xiaoyu, and went downstairs with the teacup in hand. Looking at his behavior, he was basically an old figure like the Dongheng scholar from the Ming Dynasty.
"Teacher Xiang, you are very laid-back."
Xiang Tianying put the chessboard aside: "Combining work and rest, where is my letter of appointment? Hand it over quickly."
Jin Xiaoyu took out the letter of appointment from his bag: "I really want to tear it up. I haven't eaten yet?! You said you wanted to treat me to dinner. What time is it now?"
Xiang Tianying took the letter of appointment, opened it, looked at it, and inserted it into the document shelf: "Don't worry, don't worry, I am also the landlord of Kaohsiung National School, and now I am a serious principal. I can ask the canteen to open a small stove.
Does it matter? There is venison today."
"Venison?" Although she wanted to maintain the image of a lady, the saliva in her mouth was secreted rapidly, and her intestines growled at an inappropriate time.
"I asked the cafeteria to grill a whole deer leg - it's all lean meat, and it's oily and fragrant..." Xiang Tianying gestured.
"Then what's the point? Hurry! I'm almost starving to death!"
The two came to the canteen and saw a venison leg hanging on the stove hook. It was roasted and fragrant. Mixed with the strong smell of spices, it made people's stomach rumble when they smelled it. The side dish was a large pot of locally produced lettuce leaves.
and perilla leaves, the rarest staple food, was actually a stack of French pancakes with a lot of raw garlic. This unique way of eating Chinese and Western food opened her eyes. There is no doubt that Principal Xiang in Kaohsiung is mainly engaged in thinking besides teaching.
How to eat.
"Here, drink some kvass to quench your thirst."
"I don't like drinking this sour stuff. Is there any beer?"
"Yes, yes." Xiang Tianying immediately asked someone to bring beer and open it, and the two of them ate happily.
Xiang Tianying tore off a piece of venison and put it in the pancake, then added a few pieces of lettuce, put it into his mouth and chewed it, and then put a head of garlic directly into his mouth. Jin Xiaoyu did not show any weakness, wrapped the meat with lettuce leaves and perilla leaves, and instantly
Just eat four or five slices.
No one spoke at first, but when her stomach was half full, she smiled and said: "I thought you were having a hard time here, but I didn't expect that your life was quite comfortable. I even found four life secretaries!"
"It's wrong, it's wrong. The life secretary here is mainly responsible for secretarial work, not life work..." Xiang Tianying shook his head repeatedly, "Now that the school has developed greatly, dormitories, canteens, and classrooms are finally enough. But the hardware facilities have improved.
, but there is no management organization. Think about it: the Academic Affairs Department, the Finance Department, the General Affairs Department, the Security Department... none of these most basic departments are there. There is no section chief or section staff. All the work is managed by these secretaries.
I also have to teach some classes. Think about it, our school, not including me, has ten full-time teachers... nine teachers to teach 600 students, and there are night school literacy tasks... I am so busy that I hit the back of my head.
.”
Jin Xiaoyu smiled and said: "Hit the back of the head with your foot? Then you are still playing backgammon here?"
Xiang Tianying waved his hand: "This is to attract people's hearts. This Mr. Cheng is a very insightful scholar. I am going to use him for my use. When will I show you his notes..."
Seeing Jin Xiaoyu's obviously uninterested expression, he said indifferently: "Forget it, let's not talk about it. By the way, how many places will the senior primary school in Fangcaodi give us this year?"
Jin Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment: "What quota?"
Xiang Tianying asked in surprise: "After the Kaohsiung junior primary school graduation exam, the admission quota for senior high school students will be selected. I told Lao Hu last time: admission will no longer be based on usual grades or entrance examination scores, but will be based on
The top fifty in the grade will go to Lingao..."
Jin Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "There will be no quota in the future."
"Why?!"
"We all have to run our own high school, so of course there won't be any places for us." She thought, isn't this a matter of course? Otherwise, why would education support you so much?
"That's it. However, the student dormitories here in Kaohsiung are very tight now, and the classrooms are not enough. Even the junior high school students can't even attend class. The cafeteria is full of people during lunch time. It was almost the same two days ago.
There was a stampede. I think it’s better not to do this for the senior primary school this year. As for the teachers who are coming this time, they will first support the junior primary school and night school and solve the urgent needs first..."
Jin Xiaoyu said: "Didn't you just say that the dormitories, classrooms, and canteens are all fine?"
Xiang Tianying spread his hands: "I didn't know just now that there were no quotas for Fangcaodi."
Jin Xiaoyu was so angry that he almost laughed: "Didn't you apply to become a senior elementary school student by yourself?"
Xiang Tianying said: "Can the teaching quality of our senior primary schools be the same as that of Lingao's senior primary schools? There are so many veteran teachers in Fangcaodi. We are the only ones here. Students who were originally going to be promoted to Fangcaodi suddenly changed to stay in Kaohsiung. This
How can I tell the students?"
Jin Xiaoyu said: "But by setting up a high school in Kaohsiung, more children can enter the high school. Although the education quality is not as high as that of Lingao high school, it is worse than not being able to go to school."
