Chapter 79 Chapter Fourteen - Manor (6)

Wang Qihan did not build a house.Because Wang Ru'an asked Bai Mazi to find two masons to open up the two teachers' dormitories, and temporarily borrowed him as a residence.He conscientiously manages two toilets, a pile of tools and many chores.After half a year, people actually gained weight.He didn't feel much pain, nor depression, nor pretentious melancholy.He has become indifferent, peaceful, and sincere, and his heart is as open as Pingchou after the autumn harvest, as if he has gone through all the things in the world, understood many of the major issues, and felt that he didn't need to take too much Mind and energy to toss in this world.He didn't even feel sorry for his good culture, and happily watched the students grow vegetables, plant trees, and watch them net the fish from the pond.He's also involved in all of this.During the break, he sat casually on the mud floor and talked about his time when he was studying in university, that he had met Lu Ping and Nie Yuanzi, and that there was a great Russian writer named Chekhov who wrote many novels and told many allusions , the students love to listen.The cigarette was caught between his fingers, and it was burning, and the light blue smoke curled up, and the fingers were burnt yellow, like a firecracker going off, stained with yellow dynamite.

To me, Wang Qihan never said a word of praise to me.A few years later, when I was chatting with a doctor in Yau Ma Tei Town Hospital, I mentioned Wang Qihan.He told me that once Wang Qihan came to the hospital to ask Tao Guozhi to have his teeth pulled out, and said to Tao Guozhi: "Old Tao, we have been friends for many years. Let me tell you a few words, that little Lin Bing, if the right time, place and people are right in the future." , the future should not be underestimated. Anyway, this small town of Yau Ma Tei cannot accommodate him. I really have to thank Tang Wenfu. Otherwise, I am afraid I will make a big mistake in my life..."

Wang Ru'an and Wang Qihan haven't talked much, when they met on the road, he would give Wang Qihan a cigarette, or he would give Wang Qihan a cigarette.If standing by the lotus pond, Wang Ru'an would say: "This year the lotus root grows well." Wang Qihan would say: "Hey, it grows well." If standing on the edge of a pepper field, Wang Ru'an would say: "The lotus root has grown a little thinner." Wang Qihan said, "It's time to gain weight." Wang Ruan still left the mother and daughter behind.They choose vegetables in the cafeteria, raise a few pigs in the school, and carry water to water the peppers and eggplants... It seems that Yau Ma Tei Middle School is not a school, but a farmer's family.The mother and daughter are simple, law-abiding and healthy.When I was about to graduate from high school, Wang Ru'an actually became the groom's official.People in the town asked, "Are you with the old ones or the young ones?" I didn't figure it out, so I left Yau Ma Tei Middle School forever.

Later, the county transferred Wang Ru'an to work in the county education bureau several times, but he flatly rejected them all. In 1978, the second year after the resumption of the college entrance examination, five students from Yau Ma Tei Middle School were admitted to university.Among them, one student was admitted to Tsinghua University, and another was admitted to Peking University and my Chinese department.It's just a rural middle school!This incident almost shocked the whole province.However, Wang Ru'an didn't see all of this. Just after the college entrance examination that year, he died of a heart attack. He passed away without any pain at the age of sixty-six.
