When Professor Ling left, the villagers spontaneously organized themselves and sent tears to bid farewell with their own local products. Professor Ling's contribution is unforgettable. But he is also a teacher, but Mr. Bai is greatly discounted in the hearts of the villagers. Mr. Bai devoted his life to teaching and educating people. It can be said that most people in Suining village are his students, but why has he become a stubborn old man that everyone hates?
This matter has a lot to do with his daughter Mai Miao. Since Mai Miao, as an advanced representative of migrant workers, went back to his hometown to preach, more and more people went to work in Ningmin Village, Fujian. Gradually, working in Fujian has become one of the most promising and profitable ways for villagers. Every family waits for their children to reach the age of 16 before sending them to work in Fujian to earn money.
It is undeniable that the salary of working in Fujian at that time was particularly high, and there were thousands of dollars a month for any one. This expensive salary is too attractive for the villagers. In that poor age, making money was the highest goal. But most of the young people who go to Fujian to work are still studying. Once they choose a job, their studies are completely ruined.
In Mr. Bai's view, knowledge is the real wealth. Only by learning knowledge well can we have a better future. It is a very wrong choice for students to drop out of school and work. As a result, Mr. Bai began to quarrel with the parents of the students because he dropped out of school to work, and the quarrel continued.
Take Hailing, a sixth-grade student, as an example. Her academic performance in school is very good, and she is a good seed of a college student. She is under 16 years old and is not suitable for work. But his father thought it was useless for girls to study, so Hailing lied about her age and dropped out of school to work in Fujian, helping her two brothers earn enough money to build a house and marry a wife.
In order to let Hailing continue her studies, Miss Bai argued with Hailing's patriarchal father for more than ten days, but there was still no result. Hailing was forced by her father to take the shuttle bus to work, and Miss Bai directly stopped the shuttle bus to take Hailing home. This time, even she was a little impatient. She didn't want Miss Bai and her father to quarrel again because of their own business, so she worked while working. She is going to accept her fate.
There are many parents like Hailing's father, and Miss Bai has fought for them one by one, but in vain. Instead of keeping the students, it aroused the resentment of parents, and everyone began to hate this nosy stubborn old man. Teacher Bai's kindness was regarded as a donkey's liver and lung.
Mr. Bai is a stubborn old man, not only the villagers but also the education department. In Mr. Bai's view, the main content of teaching is book knowledge and should not be mixed with too many competitions and activities. This time, the education department wants to hold a singing competition in the whole district, requiring every school to participate, but Miss Bai is very resistant.
He was angry that the school's potholed playground maintenance funds could not be approved for a long time. It's no real help to ask him to hold a singing contest now. He just engages in some formalism. Miss Bai refused to take part in the competition, and her stubborn temper offended many leaders at once.
Although he always makes everyone unhappy, everyone knows that his starting point is good, so he just hates him a little and can't afford to hide. But the following events directly ended his teaching career, and those leaders who were offended by him took the opportunity to hit people when they were down.
In order to solve the maintenance cost of the playground, Mr. Bai sold four computers donated by Fujian privately and organized a construction team to build the playground, knowing that it was illegal. These four computers were donated by Fujian and Ningxia in the east and west. Selling them was a serious violation of discipline, but Mr. Bai chose to sacrifice himself.
Because teacher Bai hindered the villagers from making money, it attracted everyone's resentment. Because Mr. Bai didn't do what the leader meant, he attracted the resentment of the leader. This is unfair to the white teacher. In order to enable students to master more knowledge, Mr. Bai really devoted his life and took root in the countryside all his life. Such a teacher deserves the greatest respect.
