FSC [QT] Chapter 75.4

Arc 4: Raising Babies In 60s (22)

Advertisement

Even Jin Qiaoqiao dared not take leave frequently because there was too much work in the fields.

In her previous life, even though she was so poor, Jin Qiaoqiao had not worked in the fields for a long time. Most of the jobs she did were dishwashers or waitresses. Although these jobs were tiring, they were much easier than working in the fields.

Especially in this era, there was no air conditioning and popsicles.

In the summer, you had to work in the fields under the scorching sun. The only way to protect yourself from the sun was to wear long sleeves and a straw hat.

At the end of the day, your skin would be sunburned and peeled.

After a summer, you would be three degrees darker.

Before she got married, Jin Qiaoqiao could still be lazy and push the work to her brother and sister-in-law. Now that she had become the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, she had to endure the work pushed to her by her brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.

Jin Qiaoqiao felt that her skin had become rough.

If she worked hard for a few more years, she was afraid that no matter how much skin care products she spent, the damage to her skin could not be saved.

Now Ye Wu got the job of a teacher in the commune, which meant that she did not need to work in the fields. This was enough to make Jin Qiaoqiao envious.

She wanted to make up for Ye Wu before, but now it seemed that Ye Wu’s life was much more comfortable than hers.

She had been feeling uneasy and guilty in her heart these days, and she had been being too sentimental.

At this moment, Jin Qiaoqiao’s feelings for Ye Wu were a bit complicated.

How could that woman always be so lucky? No matter what situation she was in, she could be so lucky.

Jin Qiaoqiao couldn’t help thinking deeply.

Could it be that she couldn’t compare to Ye Wu?

So even if she was in the other party’s previous position, the other party could still live her own wonderful life.

Jin Qiaoqiao didn’t want to admit it, but reality forced her to admit it.

In Ah Wu’s heart, teaching was a very sacred profession.

In school, teachers not only bear the responsibility of imparting knowledge, but they also bear the responsibility of guiding children’s all-round development of morality, intelligence, and physique.

This was her subconscious thought.

Ah Wu felt that she had been either a teacher or a student in the past and had met many similar teachers, so she respected this profession so much.

But after arriving at the commune primary school, Ah Wu’s fantasy about teachers was shattered.

The commune primary school consisted of three brick houses and an empty yard.

There was one class for grades one, two, and three, and one class for grades four and five. There was one principal and two teachers in the commune primary school.

After Ah Wu arrived, there was one more teacher, making a total of four teachers.

There were not many students in the primary school. There were 27 students in the small class and 16 students in the big class.

According to the Principal, few students continued to study in the big class after finishing the small class. They usually went back home to farm after learning a few words. The original intention of their parents sending them here to study was just to prevent them from being blind.

On the first day of her job, Ah Wu saw a female teacher who was supposed to teach arithmetic in the small class bring a half-knitted yarn to the school and then let the children go to the field to dig sweet potatoes.

There was a private plot behind the school, which was full of crops.

Ah Wu learned from those teachers that these crops were planted by the students, and the teachers were just auxiliary teaching, but the final results belonged to the teachers.

“Don’t the children have to go to class?”

Ah Wu was very curious and expressed her doubts.
