Chapter 12 Homecoming
The next day, Yang Rui was invited to the principal's office.
The teachers of several subjects were there, and the principal Zhao Dannian personally asked about Yang Rui’s learning situation. Everyone wanted to know why an ordinary student suddenly became a full-scoring student.
In fact, teachers who have seen the college entrance examinations in 1977 and 1978 are quite mentally prepared for students' rapid progress.
But Yang Rui's changes were too great, which made people unbelievable, which alarmed the principal Zhao Dannian.
In the ten miles and eighteen villages near Xibao Town, Zhao Dannian was a legendary figure. When he was in elementary school, he joined the Youth Pioneer Team, took a red tassel and sent a letter of chicken feather. When the country was liberated, he not only joined the party, but also stumblingly and read the county middle school. He was a senior intellectual at that time. Xibao Middle School went from nothing to something, from elementary school to high school, almost the old man Zhao pulled it up with one hand.
With this qualification, although Xibao Middle School has experienced the impact of the suspension of classes and resumption of classes, it is still damaged and has grown up. Xiaobaiya will study here because his father is hiding here.
Zhao Dannian has such an outstanding reputation in the local area and is well-known for his stubborn personality.
When he saw him, Yang Rui could not simply say "open" to explain it. He thought about it carefully before and said slowly: "Actually, I used to memorize questions and never had any tricks. This college entrance examination made me thoroughly, and I felt a little integrated in science. In addition, the question types of this exam were similar to the last college entrance examination. Most of them have seen them and got full marks. Although it was a bit unexpected, they did not come out of thin air."
Zhao Dannian carried his hands behind his back and circled around his dark red desk, as if judging whether his words were true or false.
Other teachers took the opportunity to ask questions.
Yang Rui answered without a word, focusing his energy on Zhao Dannian.
He knew very well that this old man said a word that would be worth a hundred words from others.
After a few minutes of unnutritional conversation, Zhao Dannian finally stopped and asked: "Can you maintain your grades?"
Yang Rui nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes."
Zhao Dannian nodded and said, "Then let's take the exam well, and strive to take the exam for a University of Science and Technology of China, Peking University, and show our Xibao Middle School. Well, what is the idea of the study group you organized?"
"I just want to pass on my experience to everyone. However, learning varies from person to person. You can't just swallow it all. The group helps each other. I think it's the best way to improve your grades."
Zhao Dannian pondered slightly, and after a moment, he said, "The atmosphere of learning between classmates is also very good. Not only should I introduce your experience to them..."
He talked slowly for two minutes, and Yang Rui still nodded and said "Okay".
In this way, Zhao Dannian showed a satisfied expression and asked, "You guys, what do you want to say?"
Several teachers in the room looked at each other.
When Zhao Dannian saw it, he sent his hands in the air twice: "Okay, Yang Rui, you go back."
Yang Rui smiled and said "yes", nodded to other teachers, and went out.
As soon as the door was closed, Teacher Lu coughed: "Principal, what can you ask if you ask this?"
Zhao Dannian turned around and asked, "What do you want to ask?"
Teacher Lu was immediately stunned.
"Everyone goes back. Whether it is good or bad, there are college entrance examinations to test it, everything depends on the results." Zhao Dannian, the stubborn old man, is an absolute resultantist. No matter what the teachers think, he sent it out in a few words.
The last discussion of Yang Rui's grades at Xibao Middle School ended in vain.
...
After returning to the dormitory, Yang Rui gathered all the 18 study group reserve members who wrote the application form and began to formulate a study plan.
Get up at 6 a.m. for a jogging, breakfast at 6:30 a.m., and start memorizing English at 7 a.m....
A series of plans, from 6 am to 12 pm, divided the whole day into pieces. This is something that Yang Rui often does in the cram school. He is familiar with it at this moment and has no stutter at all.
Wang Guohua and others looked at this detailed plan, and their faces were so bitter that they wrinkled.
"Do you really have to follow the requirements above?" Huang Ren, who looks thin, also looks ugly. He is also Yang Rui's little fellow townsman and classmate.
"If you want to go to college, you have to follow the ones above." Yang Rui whispered: "It doesn't matter if you can't persist, you just have to quit this study group."
"No." Cao Baoming immediately shouted out: "It's just a study plan. If you don't decide, we have to decide it ourselves. However, you haven't said what you have learned yet."
"I memorize things first, memorize everything I can, do a small amount of questions, and I will also get the test papers out. Every afternoon, I will talk about the questions to you and add some basics. The college entrance examination is actually the basics. It is too difficult to get the exam, and there is no need to..."
"Just having a foundation alone, you can't get high scores." Xu Jing was a little confused.
Yang Rui turned his fingers and said, "If you pass the exam, you will get 60 points in Chinese, 72, 72, English, physics, chemistry and politics, and 30 points in biology, and 414 points in total. You're more than enough to go to college, don't you think?"
The eighteen heads below were involuntarily clicking.
There are still very few systematic college entrance examination review plans in middle schools. Everyone only knows that high scores can lead to college entrance examinations, but few people summarize how to take the college entrance examination more efficiently.
Yang Rui easily pushed open a window and showed it to them.
The students in the village have very weak foundations, unlike many students in big cities, even during the sports period, parents teach them to study. Therefore, it is unrealistic to improve all the subjects of everyone in just one year. On the one hand, Yang Rui asked them to refine the foundation, and on the other hand, they improved their different subjects from person to person.
For example, if Wang Guohua wants to increase his math score to above 80 points, it is quite difficult. If you have this time, it is better to memorize some exercises and pass the exam, saving time in chemistry and English, two easy-to-get scores.
Yang Rui spent three days supervising and modifying their plans. By the weekend, the 18 people in the study group had already begun to get used to this learning method.
Only then did Yang Rui ask Teacher Lu for leave and prepare to go home.
The return class is the strictest management.
Because fresh graduates rarely get into college, the school puts down the poor teaching staff on the back-up class. If you don’t ask for leave on weekends, you will only have half a day off.
As for the teachers, they are truly working for free without hesitation.
Passionate passion is always a bit unsuitable for describing a serious classroom atmosphere, but it is quite accurate to say that everyone has a fire in their hearts.
This is an era when I want to do something big, but everyone doesn’t know what big thing they can do, so they have to vent their excess energy into endless work.
That is, Yang Rui, who can easily take two-day family leave.
Saturday.
Yang Rui returned to Xizhaizi Township in Xibao Town with a convertible truck carrying goods.
Compared with Xibao Town, which has two streets, Xibao Township is even more backward.
On a street more than 100 meters long, government agencies such as township governments, supply and marketing cooperatives, post offices, seed stations, etc. are lined up, which is almost the most prosperous place in the township.
On the other side of the main street is the vegetable market, full of flowing sewage and chaotic people.
Only the government has paved cement roads in front of the government gate in the township, and the rest are cinder roads. Not to mention how much pm 2.5 is the flying coal ash, the dirty color alone is disgusting.
Yang Rui greeted countless people he knew or didn’t know, and felt like he was back in the biology research building - except for the genius mice, you have to communicate with all the animals. Of course, this is a little healthier than doctoral students who only communicate with mice.
It was dinner time when we got home. Yang Rui naturally opened the yard door and saw three connected bungalows in his house and a waving pear tree.
Under the pear tree, a familiar round table is placed there.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Rui felt inexplicably close.
"Ruier is back!" Rui'er happened to serve the dishes from the kitchen and said in surprise: "There will be no classes on weekends?"
"I asked for leave." Yang Rui continued, "A guest came to his home?"
As I remember, the Yang family usually eats in the room, but if there are too many people, everyone will sit in the yard to drink tea and eat, which is more like the main living room of the home.
Rui's mother pulled her son over, looked at it carefully, and then said, "It just so happened that your uncle came and brought you canned food. When he returned to school, I'll bring you two."
"What are you here to do?" Yang Rui's impression was that my uncle was over 40 years old and was a serious workaholic. Although he often helped his relatives, he was not a man who liked to visit.
"Come and discuss something with your dad."
Rui's mother hurriedly arranged the dishes, took out two cans from the kitchen, stuffed them to Yang Rui, and said, "Your uncle brought them, pack them and take them to school for food."
The canned ribs in the tinplate jar are smooth on the top and bottom, with only a simple paper label, with 485 grams written at the capacity in the lower right corner.
Yang Rui has heard of canned ribs when he was learning microbial applications, but has never seen them.
But for a young man who hasn't smelled meat for a week, he can fully imagine how delicious the ribs in the iron can are.
"My uncle's factory produces this?" Yang Rui couldn't help licking his lips, thinking that when the royalties arrived, he would have to buy more cans and stock up.
"Yes. The canning factory under the Meat & Meat Factory is really very good. These two cans were bought at half price, but the bottom was a little uneven and the inside was good." Rui's mother picked up the jar and showed it to Yang Rui. There was a protruding part at the bottom, as if the bones were about to be squeezed out.
Yang Rui nodded and said, "Spin the corner."
"What?"
"There is such an unevenness below, which is called a horn." Canned food is a common application of microbiology. If two sets of microbiology test papers are published, at least one question must be related to it.
Rui's mother was stunned for a moment, nodded indifferently, and said, "Your uncle seemed to have said that the canned food looks bad, and the food company doesn't want it, so it's all dealt with by employees and their families at a cheap price. Your uncle is worried about this recently, so you won't mention it later."
"Maybe I can help him solve this problem?" Yang Rui looked at the canned food in his hand and thoughtfully. Food and biology are closely related. Although he had not studied it before, he always looked at related papers. Although he didn't remember it back then, he now kept it in his mind.
Naturally, Rui's mother didn't believe it, and smiled and said, "Your uncle has invited everyone from the canning factory in the city. Okay, wash your hands and prepare for dinner."
