"Are you in the same class as Run Sheng?" Tian Xiaoxia asked him generously.
"Well ..." Shao Ping suddenly felt his face as hot as coals of fire. The first thing he realized was his dirty clothes. Standing in front of this handsome and well-dressed female classmate, he felt like a beggar begging at her door.
Moisten leaves packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and Xiao Xia made tea for him enthusiastically.
Xiao Xia put the teacup in front of him and said, "We are fellow villagers in the same village! Come to our house when you are free. I grew up to seventeen and haven't been back to our village! When will I go back to our Shuangshui Village with you and Run Sheng ... I'm in Class 2, Grade 1, and I heard from Run Sheng that there are two classmates in our village, both of whom are in Class/kloc-0, and I didn't know you either. You see, my hometown is really outrageous! "
Xiao Xia speaks standard Mandarin with minor dialects. Her personality is very cheerful, and you can tell at a glance that she has seen the world! Shao Ping also found that the shirt outside Tian Xiaoxia was covered like a boy, which made him feel extremely surprised.
This is the scene where Sun Shaoping and Tian Xiaoxia meet for the first time.
Tian Runye, who teaches at Chengguan Primary School in the county, lives in her second father's house, who is the deputy director of Nadang County Revolutionary Committee. Because she has something to study in the county middle school, Sun Shaoping took her back to Shuangshui Village to give Shao Ping's younger brother Sun Shaoan, so she took Shao Ping to her second father's house for dinner. When he went to visit the outstanding county leader Sun Shaoping in rags, he felt very uneasy. Thoughtful Runye left Shao Ping alone in the room for dinner. After dinner, Runye came in to tidy up the dishes and chopsticks, and a girl came in behind her, Tian Xiaoxia, the daughter of Runye's second father. So there was their first conversation in the book. In a few words, the author vividly described Shao Ping's embarrassment and Xiao Xia's generous and free-spirited image when they first met. At the same time, in these simple descriptions, the gap between Shao Ping and Xiao Xia's material status is shown to us for the first time.
Sun Shaoping went to school in a county middle school and felt inferior because of poverty.
"Drink some water before you go!" Xiao Xia turned the glass in front of him.
"I am not thirsty!" He said awkwardly, like a farmer.
Xiao Xia showed two rows of white teeth and said with a smile, "Then I poured this glass of water for you for nothing!" "
Shao Ping immediately realized that this was a slightly teasing joke. This kind of joke is actually a kind gesture. However, this made him more restrained, even flushed and speechless.
The author is partial to Tian Xiaoxia. He described Tian Xiaoxia with vivid brushstrokes that are rare in the book, and showed her frankness and freeness to the fullest, so that as long as there is room for Tian Xiaoxia to appear, the tone between the lines will show youthful and beautiful colors. The first meeting between Shao Ping and Xiao Xia ended with Shao Ping's clumsy restraint and silent answer.
Get along with the literary propaganda team
A few days later, something unexpected suddenly appeared in Shao Ping's life. According to the instructions of the county propaganda department and the Cultural Bureau, the school should organize the school level.
