"Children, this is for you." Yang Yuxin and Zhang Long took the contents of their backpacks and began to hand out things to these children. The children who received the things seemed very happy. The other children were all excited.
The crowd came up and looked at Wang Xiong and the others with longing eyes.
"Children, there are a lot of gifts. Don't crowd, everyone has a share." Yang Yuxin said with a smile.
These children are also very obedient. After Yang Yuxin said this, they really stopped crowding. They all lined up consciously. It must be said that the quality of these children is quite good. Even in this case,
There was no fighting.
After a while, a woman in her forties walked out of the classroom, looked at Wang Xiong and the others with a smile, with gratitude in her eyes, as if she was thanking Wang Xiong and the others for bringing gifts to these children.
,
"Are you the teacher here?" Looking at the woman, Wang Xiong asked.
"Yes." The woman nodded and said, "Who are you?" After all, it was the first time that the woman saw Wang Xiong and the others, and she couldn't help but ask.
"This is my identity certificate." Wang Xiong took out his ID and handed it to the woman. The goal this time was to find this woman, so Wang Xiong naturally would not hide his identity.
At the same time, Wang Xiong also began to observe this woman. This woman's face was full of wrinkles, giving people the impression of a loving mother, and she always had a smile on her face.
"What? Are you Minister Wang?" After seeing Wang Xiong's ID, the woman's face was full of shock, and her tone of voice changed drastically.
"After receiving your letter, I wanted to come and take a look. I have just entered the Ministry of Education. I don't know much about the situation in various places, so I want to go out and have a look. At the same time, I want to sum up my experience to solve similar problems.
Question. This is what I came for." Wang Xiong explained with a smile.
When Wang Xiong said this, the woman also completely ended Wang Xiong's identity. At this time, she couldn't help but look very restrained.
"Minister Wang, I also read the newspaper of the day and found out that you were appointed as the deputy minister, so I immediately wrote you a letter. I didn't have any hope. I wrote many letters in the past, but there was no response at all.
.I really didn’t expect you to come in person this time.” The woman was very surprised.
She said cautiously. She knew that it was very difficult to go from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain, so she was even more shocked that Wang Xiong could come here. In her opinion, even if it was useful, it would at most be sent to a local
The leaders of the Education Bureau will just come here to take a look and report on the situation.
"Haha, this is what it should be. In my opinion, these children are also children, and they should also have the right to receive education. And compared with other children, they deserve more help. The situation here in Fengxia Mountain is not yours.
It is a unique situation. Many mountainous areas have similar situations. Successfully solving the problem here can also serve as a model for solving problems in other places. Therefore, it is normal for me to come here. Don’t regard me as a leader.
We can discuss this issue together." Wang Xiong said with a smile.
Seeing that Wang Xiong was so kind and approachable, the woman was relieved, but even so, she was still cautious when speaking.
While chatting with this woman, Wang Xiong knew that this woman's name was Jin Lingyan. She graduated from college twenty years ago and was assigned to work in this place. She worked there for twenty years. During these twenty years, she didn't even
After returning home, his family strongly disagreed with him being a teacher here. After several attempts to dissuade her had no effect, they severed ties with her. When she talked about this, Jin Lingyan's eyes were filled with tears.
In these years, she has not been married. Who would want to live such a life with her, and she is reluctant to let go of these children. At the very least, it is her idea to make the children in the mountains literate. And there were originally several teachers sent here.
, but when she saw the scene here, she ran away immediately. No one wanted to stay in this place. Therefore, if she left, no one would leave here.
When he heard this, Wang Xiong couldn't help but bend down and bowed deeply towards Jin Lingyan. In Wang Xiong's view, only such a person can be worthy of such a bow. For
He admired such people very much. They were the pillars and pride of the nation. In front of them, those who looked prosperous on the surface were more than a head short.
"Minister Wang, what are you doing?" Seeing Wang Xiong bowing to her, Jin Lingyan said quickly, a little panicked and didn't know what to do.
"It's nothing. I just want to express my respect. In a sense, you are worthy of the word great." Wang Xiong said sincerely.
"Minister Wang, I just did what I should do. The word great is too far away from me. In my opinion, Minister Wang, your talent can be called great." Jin Lingyan quickly shook her head.
"Teacher Jin, it's not me. There are absolutely not many people who can stay here for twenty years like you. You are the one we should praise and reward. Compared with those who have a very high enrollment rate
What kind of special teachers, you are many times stronger than them, because, I know
If they were asked to come to this place, they would definitely not come, let alone teach here for twenty years." Wang Xiong said seriously, and what he said was all true. Wang
Xiong rarely praises a person sincerely, and this Jin Lingyan is one of the few.
"This." Jin Lingyan stopped talking, her eye circles were a little red. Obviously some of Wang Xiong's words touched her. The most important thing is to get recognition. You must know that in the past twenty years, apart from the children and their parents in this mountain,
Except for the fact that no one recognized her, they all treated her as a fool. Not to mention how uncomfortable it was in her heart. Today, someone finally recognized her in this way. This person was still a high-ranking official. She suddenly felt that her
The grievance was gone in an instant.
"Teacher Jin, come down the mountain with me today. I will publicize your situation in the Ministry of Education first. Then I will contact various media to actually report the situation. In this way, more people can understand this situation and this issue.
I can also get comprehensive attention. If I continue to exert my influence, there will eventually be a solution." Wang Xiong said softly.
"Okay." At this time, Jin Lingyan had no idea at all. She just agreed to do whatever Wang Xiong said.
"Well, you explain to the children and then get ready. We will go down the mountain. Otherwise, it will be dark when we return to the city." Wang Xiong ordered. Although it is still morning, it seems to be still very early.
However, you must know that the mountain road is difficult to walk, and it is still a long way from the city after going down the mountain. Generally speaking, it may not be possible to reach Linxia County in one day.
"Okay, okay." Jin Lingyan said quickly.
Fifteen minutes later, Jin Lingyan had everything ready. Wang Xiong, Zhang Long, Yang Yuxin, and Jin Lingyan walked down the mountain. On the way, many villagers on the mountain greeted Jin Lingyan.
On Fengxia Mountain, Jin Lingyan's status is very high, and people respect her very much. She has been teaching here for twenty years, and nearly half of the people on the mountain call her their teacher.
"Hello, Teacher Jin."
"Hello, Teacher Jin." Whenever she hears such a voice, Jin Lingyan's face will show a smile, which proves that everything he has done is worthwhile.
Jin Lingyan walked on the rugged mountain road without much difficulty, and she seemed to walk it often. When she passed that cliff this time, she was supporting Yang Yuxin, because she had the experience from the last time, and she was going back again this time.
, Yang Yuxin was no longer so nervous. Several people passed this section of the road smoothly.
For Wang Xiong, every time he passed this section of the road, he had a deep memory. He had to be very careful every step of the way. Wang Xiong really couldn't imagine how people could live in such a mountain. Although the conditions when he was a child were very poor, he was still different from this place.
In comparison, it’s much better. In fact, sometimes you just can’t compare. If you don’t compare with those who are rich, you don’t know how low your quality of life is. If you don’t compare with those who have suffered, it will be difficult for you to feel it.
Come on, how happy your life is today.
"Teacher Jin, are there buses here?" Wang Xiong couldn't help but ask after going down the mountain. When he came here, he came by taxi. Naturally, he didn't know if there were buses here, and he definitely couldn't find them here.
When they got to the taxi, Wang Xiong had no choice but to ask Jin Lingyan.
"There is not one here. There is one in a town five miles away. There is a bus to the county seat there." Jin Lingyan said quickly.
"It's still five miles away." Yang Yuxin's face turned pale when she heard this. Now she felt that her body could no longer bear it. She had suffered more than she had ever suffered in the past two days, and she no longer felt any pain at this time.
I suffered from those two years of idleness, but on the other hand, this kind of experience is undoubtedly unforgettable. It is also a rare treasure for life. It is even unforgettable for a lifetime and can be savored continuously.
"Let's go. How about I or the boss carry you?" Zhang Long said jokingly.
"Forget it." Yang Yuxin rolled her eyes at Zhang Long.
"Boss, she means to let you carry it." Zhang Long said to Wang Xiong with a smile.
"I didn't." Yang Yuxin quickly denied.
"It's only five miles away. The time will be up in a while." Wang Xiong shook his head and said with a chuckle.
At noon, they finally arrived in the town, ate something casually, and then arrived at the bus stop. After buying tickets to the county seat, they were ready to set off to the county seat. According to the time, they would arrive at the county seat at three in the afternoon.
, it can be seen that this town is quite remote and far away from the county seat.
