Chapter 32 Tao Qi's Summer Diary-3

When we arrived, the theater was almost full.The four large fans on the roof whirred loudly.Gongs and drums sounded from behind the stage, the dark green stage curtain slowly opened to both sides, and the music played for a while, and a shepherd boy came out from behind the light green stage, about my age, wearing a bamboo hat on his head, He holds a bullwhip in his right hand and a flute in his left. When he came out, he danced and sang.After a while, someone sang behind the scenes, and a little girl younger than me came out.I've never seen anyone so well-groomed!She also wears a bamboo hat on her head, with many red, green and green shiny things nailed on it. She is wearing a red embroidered dress, with two skirt-like silk pieces tied around her waist, one end of which is tied to both hands. On, walking, like the wings of a butterfly.She and the shepherd boy sang one question and one answer, and danced back and forth on the stage. It was so beautiful!After she sang for a while, she stopped and asked the shepherd boy, "Brother shepherd boy, do you think I sing well?" (Xiaoqiu and I both understood these lines, and we were both very happy.) Later, they decided to return tomorrow. Playing together is parting.The girl left first, and the shepherd boy sent her a long way, then hurried back to look for the cow.Everyone laughed.When the curtain closed, the audience applauded vigorously.

What is "Second Entry into the Palace" next.Mom said we didn't understand the play, so she took us out to cool off.We were standing on the steps outside the arena, eating popsicles, and talking about "Little Cowherd" at the same time. During the rest time, Grandpa and Aunt Chen also came out.After a while, the bell rang, and we all hurried back to our seats, and "Havoc in Heaven" began.First some ridiculous shrimp soldiers and crab generals and sea dragon kings came out, and then a monkey in a yellow robe came out. He is so lively!After a while, he got on the back of the chair, and a weight fell off again; when he was stealing peaches, his eyes looked around, he jumped up and down, scratching his ears and cheeks, just like a real monkey.Later, dozens of heavenly soldiers and generals came up, men, women, old and young, armed with various weapons, and besieged him one by one.He used a golden hoop to make a whirring sound, and beat these heavenly soldiers and generals to pieces, and they ran away in all directions!The harder he played, the louder the gongs and drums sounded.Xiaoqiu was so excited that she laughed, danced, and patted the back of the chair. At that time, everyone paid attention to the stage, and no one cared about her.

In the end, the Monkey King won, and the curtain closed. We all stood up and clapped our hands vigorously. Mother pulled us and went outside. Suddenly, the lights in front of the stage were turned on again, and the curtain was opened again. A large group of heavenly soldiers and generals stood in a line, and the Monkey King stood in the middle, facing us. Bow with a smile.Xiaoqiu was jumping for joy again!We didn't come out reluctantly until they thanked us three times and closed the curtain. When we came back, we rushed to report the good show we watched to grandma and sister.Xiaoqiu said that she would go to an opera school when she was older, because she likes singing and dancing the most.My sister said that learning to act is hard work.These young actors practice martial arts and singing every day. Besides, they have to study like us, and they have to perform in public on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.It's not easy!

Today we are really excited, but Xiaoqiu and I are going to bed early, because we are going to lie in bed and think carefully about the two plays we have seen. We got up early this morning.These days we always get up very early, and when there are no pedestrians on the road, we rush to splash the street. Xiaoqiu and I filled the bucket with clean water and carried it outside the gate.She used a watering can, and I splashed it on the street with a water spoon.The two of us also imitated the shepherd boy and village girl in "Little Cowherd", walking quickly back and forth in front of the door, and the ground was sprinkled with "8"-shaped wet marks.Xiaoqiu was still singing, and when she finished singing, she stopped and asked me, "Brother Shepherd Boy, do you think I sing well?" People walking and cycling in the alley turned their heads and smiled at her, and she felt embarrassed. laughed out loud.

In the afternoon, Aunt Chen cut clothes for me and my sister.She gave me and my sister each a white poplin short-sleeved shirt and a red flower silk skirt, saying that she would wear them for the National Day this year.Grandma asked my sister to watch and learn from the side.Aunt Chen measured us with a cloth ruler, and my sister wrote down the measurements.Aunt Chen drew the shape on a large piece of paper, and my sister cut it out accordingly.There were many rags on the table.Xiaoqiu and I rushed to take Xiaoqiu’s Japanese doll out, took off her Japanese clothes, measured the size with a cloth ruler, drew a paper pattern, and we used those rags to cut clothes for the doll. The skirt is cut and sewn up.Because we don’t need to thread the needle frequently, we use very long thread, and as a result, we pull it back and forth, and the knot becomes knotted, and we can’t untie it no matter how hard we try!Grandma came over and said, "You are so lazy! We old people are too dazed to wear a needle, so they don't use long thread. Making long thread not only wastes thread, but also wastes time."

We listened to grandma's advice and cut the thread short. Sure enough, there was no knot, and it was quick to make. After a while, I made a little shirt, and Xiao Qiu also made a little skirt.Grandma cut small shoes for the doll again, and we used even the smallest piece of rag!The larger red silk is used as the upper, and the smaller white silk is used as the sole. The more we do it, the more interesting it becomes.Time flies so fast, and it will be dark in a while.When we stood up, our necks were a little sore! We really feel happy today, the little doll also puts on new clothes, and we also learned our skills!

When I went to make up lessons for Zeng Xuejiao this morning, I heard that Lin Yi and Sun Jiaying had already gone to the Young Pioneers summer camp in the western suburbs yesterday, and they would not be back until the afternoon of the 6th. After we finished our lessons, Li Chunsheng came over.I told Li Chunsheng about the play we saw in "Heavenly Palace", the little actor who played the role of the Monkey King played very well.Li Chunsheng said with a smile: "Really Sun Houzi can't compare to me, he can't swim in the water, he's not as good as Zhu Bajie! Now I can pick up things under the water." Zeng Xuejiao said: "But Fan Zumou swims much better than you!" Li Chunsheng said: "He swims well. Lin Yi said that his posture is also good. But he also "reserves his hand" in swimming and refuses to teach others. Lin Yi begged him, so I won't ask him for advice! He is in the class I keep talking about 'mutual aid' and 'unity', so I don't like this kind of young pioneers who are 'not as good as one'!" Zeng Xuejiao said: "You criticize Fan Zumou, don't mention the young pioneers!" Li Chunsheng said: "Who Are you talking about all the young pioneers?" Zeng Xuejiao ignored him and limped into the yard by herself.Li Chunsheng didn't speak, but walked over to help Zeng Xuejiao out of her little stool.

We all sat under the big pagoda tree.Aunt Li was sitting at her door picking out tweed pillows, and Li Chunsheng's younger brother, Qiusheng, was crawling on the floor beside her to play.This child is very interesting, with dark eyes, red face, and small mouth, he looks exactly like Aunt Li.Zeng Xuejiao said: "Qiusheng talks a lot, he knows everything." Then she asked Li Chunsheng to come into her room and take out a pictorial, pointing to the cover and asking, "Qiusheng, who do you think this is?" The son stood up unsteadily, stretched his small arms, raised his head and smiled and said: "... Xi..." Aunt Li said happily: "The portrait of Chairman Mao is posted on the wall and in the book." , he can recognize everything on the month card.” Zeng Xuejiao smiled and said, “Qiusheng, you can sing “Dongfanghong” to Sister Tao.

Bar! He just looked at us, opened his mouth wide, and sang: "Dong-guang-hong". When he sang here, he suddenly became ashamed, put his finger in his mouth, and threw himself on Aunt Li as soon as he turned his head. Aunt Li hurriedly put aside her work and said: "Get up, sing to my sister..." At this time, Li Chunsheng's three older brothers and sisters suddenly chased in from outside the door, laughing and shouting. Aunt Li's snow-white pillowcase hanging by the door touched the ground and stepped on a few big footprints.Li Chunsheng yelled: "You owe me a beating again, come out!" Aunt Li blushed with anger, went to pick up the pillowcase bitterly, patted it a few times, and said:

"I've returned to work a few times this month. These little things will grind me to death!" I picked up Qiusheng and entered the room with Zeng Xuejiao.Zeng Xuejiao said: "It will be great if the street nursery will be set up in a while. Aunt Li has made these children confused all day long." There are too many children, and the mother is really suffering and tired! This afternoon Wang Ruixuan invited me and Xiaoqiu to watch the movie "August 1st Games". This movie is colorful, the colors are beautiful!The sports teams of the PLA uncles and aunts are very majestic.Chairman Mao and Commander-in-Chief Zhu were on the reviewing platform, smiling and applauding them.Their performances are also very exciting; like horse racing in full armor, riding a horse jumping through the ring of fire, driving a motorcycle over the fire, parachuting performances by the uncles and aunts of the Air Force, and swimming competitions by the uncles and aunts of the Navy ... The best thing is in the horse racing performance. There are two Mongolian teenagers. They ride horses and gallop, and they ride better than adults. They are really little heroes on the grassland!

After watching the movie, we were about to go out when we suddenly found a yellow raincoat on the back of a chair in the front row.We remember it as a big sister with pigtails and a blue plaid shirt.We quickly picked up our raincoats, squeezed out of the crowd, and looked left and right at the gate.At this time, the movie-goers were walking on both sides of the street, but there was no girl in a blue plaid shirt in sight. Xiaoqiu said: "She must have gone far away." Ruixuan said: "Otherwise we will hand over this raincoat to the people in the movie theater, let's go back first. She herself found that she lost her raincoat, and she will definitely come back to look for it. "I thought about it and said: "Didn't it rain at this time yesterday? Raincoats are needed in this kind of weather. I think this is okay? Xiaoqiu is waiting at the door with a raincoat. I will go east and west with you and walk along the street to find If you really can't find her, let's talk about it." Ruixuan and Xiaoqiu agreed.Ruixuan and I hurriedly ran separately.I ran through the crowd and shouted: "Comrades! Has anyone lost their raincoat?" At this time, a big sister in a blue checked shirt came out from the crowd in front of me and asked, "I forgot my raincoat." The belt came out, didn’t you pick up the yellow one?” I said, “It’s yellow, you fell on your seat, my sister is holding it and waiting for you at the entrance of the cinema!” She happily pulled my Hand said: "Thank you, you are such a good red scarf!" We walked back together, and at this time Ruixuan also came back from the other end.This big sister took the raincoat from Xiaoqiu and thanked us again and again.We watched her walk away before turning and going home. On the way back, we talked and laughed, feeling very happy.When I was about to enter the alley, there were dark clouds in the sky again, even if it started to rain suddenly now, the big sister would not be drenched anymore! There is nothing to do today, the weather is very hot, we will play at home. My sister received another letter from Uncle Zhou Shaoyuan of the Volunteer Army, and copied it below: Day and night I looked forward to receiving a letter from my motherland as soon as possible, and this hope finally came true.How precious and meaningful your letter is, it makes us feel excited and warm from the bottom of our hearts.There is nothing more appropriate to describe our love for the motherland. I can only combine thousands of words into one sentence: "The great and lovely motherland always cares about us." The motherland's love and care for us encouraged us to fight another big victory.About ten days ago, our army launched a powerful counterattack against Syngman Rhee's puppet army on the center line of North Korea, west of the North Han River and east of Jinhua.In just over 30 minutes of fighting, all the enemy lines were broken through.Our army braved the rain and took advantage of the victory to chase after them. The enemy fled in a panic. Tanks and guns were thrown all over the ground, and even their shameful Taiji flag was thrown in the mud!In this battle, our army's position advanced another ten kilometers to the south, annihilating more than 26,000 enemy troops.This is really good news, but unfortunately we are not there to describe it in more detail. I don't have anything more valuable to write about. Let me write about the relationship between the military and the people of China and North Korea.We guard the extremely dangerous coastline, and may be attacked by enemy planes and artillery at any time, and fierce battles may occur at any time.This place is called Changfali. There is a poor grandmother named Zheng. She cares more about us than her own children. Every day, before we get up, we boil water to wash our faces, and often wash our staff comrades’ clothes and Sheets, cook us some delicious food during festivals.She often told us: "Only by protecting your body can you kill the enemy and do meritorious service, and you can protect my grandma. The American bandits want to kill us, but we still have to live!" All our comrades also care about her affectionately. So I went up the mountain to pull firewood for her, and dug a hole seven or eight meters long for her, and moved her family's daily necessities into the hole. When encountering an enemy plane attack, also protect her and go into the cave.We also gave her some fruit candies from our motherland, and Grandma liked it very much.When we were about to transfer away, we gave her family some cigarettes, hand towels, diaries, pens and clothes as gifts, and exchanged photos.We didn't dare to tell her long ago, and only said to her when we acted: "Dear Grandma, we are going to part." Before we could finish the sentence, her tears rolled down. She paused for a while, and said: "Comrades, let's go! Go, beat those evil enemies fiercely, and avenge the people of China and North Korea!" She said a lot, and we couldn't hear them clearly, but ours My mind was on fire all the time! All our comrades can understand your letters. We love to hear about the construction of the motherland, political movements, cultural advances, and the current situation of people's lives and studies. It just so happens that you write these things.Friends, let's go! Finally, I hope you will write more often.Yours sincerely! your friend Zhou Shaoyuan July 24 This morning, when I was sweeping the floor in grandma's house, I heard grandma ask grandpa: "Look at the almanac, what time is Liqiu tomorrow?" Grandpa said, "It's 4:15 in the morning." Grandma said: "Okay! 'Early Liqiu, it's chilly; late Liqiu, hot to death.' Early Liqiu will be cool!" I suddenly remembered something, and said: "Isn't Xiaoqiu's birthday?" Grandma said happily, "This is her first birthday in China. Let's give her noodles." I said, "I want to buy some gifts for Xiaoqiu. She knew it in advance." At this moment, Aunt Chen and Xiaoqiu came in.Aunt Chen said that they were leaving and wanted to hurry up and visit the Forbidden City, and asked Grandpa if he could take them there this morning when it was cloudy and not too hot.Grandpa said: "Okay, the Forbidden City is a must see." Aunt Chen said: "The four of us should go?" I hurriedly said: "Today... I have something urgent, so I won't go, my sister will go with you " Xiaoqiu pulled me and asked, "What is your urgent matter?" I smiled and said, "I can't tell you, anyway, you will know tomorrow." Xiaoqiu still had to ask, but I insisted on not saying anything. After they set off, grandma took me to the market.There are so many things in the market, colorful, everything is good.After picking and choosing, grandma finally decided to buy Xiaoqiu a pair of "Beijing shoes" covered with red flower cloth, so that she could take them to the south to wear. I bought her a red leather study diary, so that she can write when she is in school.We got home, wrapped these two things in red paper, and grandma put them away.They haven't come back yet! It was almost time for lunch when they came back.As soon as Xiaoqiu entered the door, she yelled: "Second sister, the Forbidden City is very beautiful, and there are so many good things in it!" Grandpa laughed and said: "Xiaoqiu also said, 'The former emperor was so selfish, the whole family lived in such a big house!'" Aunt Chen said with a smile: "In the past, I heard that there are many palaces in Beijing, and I finally saw them today. We only saw one way, and my legs were sore from going up and down the steps, but Xiaoqiu is not tired at all..." Xiaoqiu continued He pulled me and said, "You haven't seen those big and small clocks, they are all gold, inlaid with jewels, and there are small people and birds. What does the emperor need so many clocks for?" My sister said: "Just because he owns too much, the people have nothing. Now that the people are in charge, everything the emperor lives in belongs to the people. Otherwise, how can you go in and see it!" Before going to bed at night, Xiaoqiu asked me if I had done that "important matter"?I never said that! Today I have something on my mind, I woke up early in the morning, walked into the back room gently, Xiaoqiu was still sleeping soundly.I was right next to her ear, and said softly: "Birthday children, wake up!" I said it twice, and Xiaoqiu immediately got up and called: "Mom, is today my birthday?" Aunt Chen also woke up and said, "Is it? I forgot." I smiled and said, "Yes, isn't it Liqiu today? The important thing I said yesterday , I just went to buy you a gift. Grandma and I both have gifts for you!" Xiaoqiu was very happy and said, "Where is the gift? Let me see it." Aunt Chen said with a smile: "You still don't thank everyone, it's really troublesome." I brought two red paper bags and placed them in front of Xiaoqiu.She opened the bag, put on the red shoes immediately with joy, and hugged the notebook in her arms.I said: "There is still my congratulations in the notebook." Aunt Chen opened the notebook and read: "For sister Xiaoqiu—I hope you will study hard, work hard, and strive to become a glorious young pioneer!" Aunt Chen said, "Xiaoqiu, did you hear that? The second sister wants you to be a young pioneer!" Xiaoqiu smiled and said, "I heard it!" We had noodle soup for lunch.In Xiaoqiu's bowl, there are two hard-boiled and peeled eggs with two red "Shou" characters printed on them.This is all made by grandma.Just cut the character "Shou" on the red paper, paste it on the egg, and then peel it off after a while, there will be a red mark on it. After taking a nap in the afternoon, Xiaoqiu said that Aunt Chen gave her some money and allowed the two of us to go out and play by ourselves.The two of us came out happily. Let's start by talking about going for ice cream and snacks until we're full.When we were half full, Xiaoqiu wanted to eat watermelon again. I propose to buy a small one, cut it open and eat ice cream in it.We tasted really good, but Xiaoqiu said he couldn't eat it after eating half of it.I felt such a pity, so I finished my portion and ate the rest of hers! After eating ice cream, we wanted to go to the movies again, and we walked to two movie theaters, both of which were "full."We went to the market and walked around for a while, and it started to rain outside.I pulled Xiaoqiu and ran back quickly.It was still a long way from home when it began to rain heavily.There was a lot of water on the road, and because Xiao Qiu was wearing new shoes, I picked her up and walked away.By the time we got home, we were drenched! Grandma complained why I didn't take Xiaoqiu home earlier.My sister quickly gave us a hot bath.Xiaoqiu washed it first.I was shivering from the cold while waiting for my shower!My sister wrapped a big towel tightly around my body. My mother came back early this evening, and I ate a lot for dinner, but I felt a little sick after eating. Last night, I got up and had diarrhea three times. Aunt Chen and Xiao Qiu went to the western suburbs this morning, and Xiao Qiu's uncle came to pick them up. This morning, I had diarrhea four more times.My mother tested the temperature for me, and it was thirty-nine degrees.My mother gave me four tablets of sulfaguanidine and four tablets of soda. I moved to my mother's big bed to sleep and didn't eat lunch. In the afternoon, my fever was 39 degrees and 6 minutes, and I took medicine again, this time I only took two tablets of each kind. Mom sat by my bed, accompanied me, and wrote letters to Dad.Fortunately, today is Sunday, otherwise my mother would not be at home. From afternoon to night, I only had diarrhea twice, but I felt dizzy. I am so happy to sleep with my mother tonight. My mother went to work again this morning and asked my sister to watch me.My fever was thirty-eight degrees this morning, and I took medicine again. My sister sat by the bed with me, first told me a few stories, and then slowly said that I shouldn't eat recklessly, and that I should come back early if I knew it was going to rain.I lay face down in shame and didn't speak.My sister is worse than me, her body is not as good as mine, but she seldom gets sick.She has never been temperate! It rained heavily at noon, and it was so loud that I couldn't hear people talking in the house.I don't think Xiaoqiu and the others can go to Xijiao Park today. In the afternoon, my fever was 38 degrees and 2 minutes, so I continued to take medicine. This morning, my mother tried the heat for me, and it was thirty-seven degrees and eight minutes.Continue to take medicine. When I asked my mother to go to work, I passed by Sun's house and said that I can't go to make up lessons for Zeng Xuejiao today. At noon, my sister came back. It turned out that they went to the station to pick up Commander Peng Dehuai. What a glorious mission!I hurriedly called my sister to the room and asked her what Commander Peng Dehuai looked like.Does it look hard on your face?How many medals hang on the chest?How many volunteer army uncles came back with him?My sister said that Commander Peng Dehuai looked good and spoke loudly. He was wearing a gray-green military uniform without any medals. She didn't see any volunteer uncles coming back with him. Maybe my sister didn't see clearly.Commander Peng has won so many medals, how could he not wear any of them? In the afternoon, my fever was thirty-seven degrees six minutes, and I continued to take medicine.I only had diarrhea twice today. My fever has completely subsided this morning.My mother said that there might still be a fever in the afternoon, and told me to continue taking medicine. Grandma asked me if I had eaten rice soup and dried steamed bun slices for the past two days, did I get tired of eating them?Want to change your look?I said no, my mother didn't say that I can eat other things, so I won't eat it. When I get sick, everyone suffers.My sister gave me medicine and told stories.Grandma boiled rice soup and baked steamed buns for me.Even grandpa is busy, I feel very sad. In the afternoon, my fever was 37 degrees and 2 minutes, so I continued to take medicine.I have no diarrhea today. No fever this morning, continue to take medicine. Sun Jiaying came to see me in the morning. She said that Zeng Xuejiao asked her to look at me. Sun Jiaying sat by my bed and told me a lot about the summer camp.They came back on the afternoon of the 6th.Summer camp is fun, they get up early and have morning exercises, listen to speeches, or free activities.After lunch, I also take a nap, and then visit universities in the western suburbs, or go to gardens.There is a party in the evening, or watching a movie, or having a party with the PLA uncle, or performing by yourself.I asked her how many people go to each summer camp?She said there were about 400 to 500 people, all young pioneers from schools in Beijing and suburban districts.Each district has a big room, girls live upstairs and boys live downstairs.They all slept on the ground with thick mats.The night I first arrived, I was so excited that I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. I finally fell asleep and woke up before dawn. It was interesting to see people sleeping all over the floor.I got used to it later, and fell asleep as soon as I fell down, but once I got used to it, it was time to get back in a hurry. The time was really too short! She sat for a while and left.I'm in good spirits and bored. I found a copy of "Doctor Bethune" in the pile of books beside my mother's bed, and started to read it. There was no fever or diarrhea in the afternoon, so I continued to take medicine. Today I have no fever and no medicine. My mother told me to lie down for another day, and I didn't want to get up. I read "Doctor Bethune" all day today-it is really a good book! ! I'm totally fine.I got up and walked around, only to feel my legs were a little soft. I started eating my usual meals today but no fruit and lettuce yet. In the morning, I made up the summer homework for the past few days.In the afternoon, watch "Doctor Bethune". In the evening Ruixuan came to see me and said that Teacher Zhang had returned from Beidaihe and she met her on the road.Teacher Zhang was getting fatter and tanned, and said that her father would go to Tianjin in a week or so, and their factory had probably been tidied up and would resume business again.I asked, "So you are moving back to Tianjin again?" She shook her head and said, "Not necessarily, at least my sister and I don't want to go, we still like Beijing." Mom came home early tonight.She said I was fine, and I should go back to sleep in my own room from tomorrow.She also smiled and asked me: "What lesson has this illness taught you?" I knew my mother would ask this question sooner or later, so I went up to hug her and said with a smile: "From now on, I will never eat indiscriminately again!" My mother is good. When I had a fever and was sick, she didn't say anything about me, because she knew that I was already sad and regretful enough! Last night, I saw the most tense place, that is, Dr. Bethune was seriously ill. He emotionally picked up the knife that had helped him save many wounded people, and said sadly: "Ouch... ouch...my little knife...my little knife..." Mom came in, and I quickly hid the book under the pillow and pretended to be asleep. I woke up at dawn this morning, got out the book quickly, and read on. I flipped the pages of the book lightly - I saw "In the quiet dawn, the excellent son of the Canadian people, the comrade-in-arms of the Chinese people, breathed out his last breath in a small Chinese village..." I couldn't help crying up. The lovely Dr. Bethune is dead! I gently put the book down, bit the corner of the pillow hard, and held back my crying.My mother woke up as soon as she turned over, and asked in surprise: "What's the matter with you?" I simply fell into my mother's arms and began to cry. Mom picked up the book next to my pillow, read the cover, and put it down.She didn't say anything, just hugged me tightly, and gently wiped my tears with a handkerchief. After a while, I calmed down, and I asked: "Mom, have you seen Dr. Bethune in the Liberated Area?" Mom said: "No, Dr. Bethune was dead when we went." I asked again: "Doctor Bethune Is your mother still there?" Mom said: "I don't know, maybe it's still there-you woke up too early, so sleep well for a while." But I can't sleep anymore.I sat up, leaned over my mother's face and said: "Mom, when I grow up, I will be a doctor. Like Dr. Bethune, I will be a person who benefits the people!" Mom smiled, looked at me, touched my face gently, and said, "Okay, I think you can be a good doctor." I lay down again, hugged my mother's arm happily, and said, "Mom, I like my job as a 'health officer' very much. I will give red medicine and bandages to my classmates, and I will try it on others." Temperature. Teacher Zhang even praised me, saying that I am clean and careful in doing things..." My mother said: "This is all good preparation, but the most important thing is the spirit of 'not selfish, dedicated to benefiting others'. Chairman Mao wants us to learn the spirit of 'internationalism' from Dr. Bethune. Chairman Mao said:' A person's ability may be great or small, but as long as he has this spirit, he is a noble person...a person who is beneficial to the people.'” I listened quietly, looking at my mother's smiling face.I think the look on my mother's face when she said these words is really beautiful! I said: "Mom, can you tell me something about your participation in the 'Medical Team to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea' last year?" By this time the sun was already shining on the windows.Grandma didn't know when she came in. She stood by the bed and said, "Xiao Qi, you're quarreling with mom again. Once you sleep in this room, your mom won't be able to rest well!" Mom laughed and said, "She didn't bother me. I'm used to getting up early, so I can't sleep much in the morning." Then he sat up. Grandma came at the wrong time, and she interrupted our most intimate conversation. In the evening we all sat in the courtyard to enjoy the shade.Grandpa said that tonight is the Qixi Festival of the seventh lunar month in the lunar calendar, which is the day when the Cowherd and the Vega meet every year. He told us the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.Grandma pointed to the misty galaxy in the sky and said, "The bright star on the west side of the river is the Weaver Girl. The big star on the east side of the river is the Cowherd, and the two small stars on both sides are the two of them. child." I asked: "Why didn't those two children follow his mother?" Grandma said: "The Queen Mother called Zhinv away, and the Cowherd brought his two children to chase him. He didn't catch up, and he was stopped on the east side of the Tianhe River." So these two children will follow his father forever." I said: "The queen mother is really hateful, she broke up such a happy family! If I only follow my father all my life and only see my mother once a year, I will never be happy. " My sister said: "This is just a fairy tale! People in the past saw that the two stars were closest to each other on this day of the year, so they made up this story, and you took it seriously again." Mom smiled and said, "If you stayed with Mom all your life and only saw Dad once a year, wouldn't you be very happy?" I went to sleep in my room tonight.I can't sleep for a long time! Today is back-to-school day. I had breakfast and went to school with my summer homework. The classmates all came, chatting in the yard in groups of three or four, and when they saw me, they laughed and said, "I'm naughty and thin, did you play too much during the summer vacation?" I said, "It's nothing, I just gave birth. Been sick for a few days." But others also seem to have changed a little bit. The braids of the female students seem to have grown a bit, and some of them have grown taller. You can see it most when queuing. Teacher Zhang really got fatter and darker.The classmates surrounded her impenetrably!She smiled and answered many questions, why is Beidaihe fun? Has she learned to swim yet? Are there many people in the "Teacher's Home"?She also asked us many questions. Teacher Zhang read our summer homework, reported the start date and other things, and we ended the meeting.I was the last one to leave the class, and I reported to Teacher Zhang about Zeng Xuejiao's make-up class.I also said that I keep a diary every day, even during the few days when I was sick, without interruption, but the writing is shorter.Teacher Zhang was very happy and said, "I know you will be persistent. There are only two weeks left in the summer vacation, so you must persevere!" When I got home, Aunt Chen and Xiao Qiu came back from the western suburbs.It turned out that they were going to take the evening train to go south today, and I suddenly felt very sad... Xiaoqiu pulled me and talked endlessly, telling me how fun the elephants, bears, and monkeys in Xijiao Park were, and telling me about the Summer Palace The mountains are so high, the lake is so big... I just told her repeatedly: "When you arrive in Guangzhou and enter the school, don't forget to write to me!" In the afternoon, my sister accompanied Aunt Chen to go shopping.I helped Xiaoqiu pack at home and put all the things she bought in Beijing into a small box. Mom came back early today.After dinner, grandma hurriedly told her elder sister to put Aunt Chen and their suitcases aside.Also don't pull down umbrellas and straw hats.Grandma took out another handbag, which was full of snacks and candies, and said it was for Xiaoqiu to eat on the road. Just after eight o'clock, grandma urged: "You should go slowly, get to the station early, don't panic." My sister went out to call a car.Aunt Chen stood up, her eyes were a little red, but she pushed Xiaoqiu with a forced smile and said, "Hurry up and say goodbye to grandpa and grandma!" Grandma's eye circles are also red.Grandpa smiled and touched Xiaoqiu's head and said, "You have grandparents when you go back to Guangzhou. They only like you when they see you." Mom and sister sent them to the station.Xiaoqiu is not reluctant at all, her heart probably flew to Guangzhou long ago! Grandma helped me move back to the original house.I packed up and went to bed, but mom and the others haven't come back yet. I went to make up lessons for Zeng Xuejiao today.Her legs were still hurting, and she was lying on the bed, and we were doing our homework on a small table next to the bed.I saw that Zeng Xuejiao was too tired to sit up. I tried to persuade her to take a rest after sitting up for an hour, but she definitely refused and supported her until ten o'clock. I just admire Zeng Xuejiao, just like Teacher Zhang often praised her, her will is really strong!It was not easy for her to come back from Singapore.Her parents only have two children, her and her brother, and Zeng Xuejiao was born with a leg problem. When her brother returns to China, she must come back with him.The British government in Singapore does not issue passports to returning overseas Chinese, and they are not allowed to go back after leaving Singapore.Her mother was crying like something, but Zeng Xuejiao finally returned to her beloved motherland!When she first came back, she couldn't keep up with her homework.Although Beijing's weather is much drier than Singapore's, she sometimes suffers from arthritis.But she gritted her teeth and overcame all these difficulties.Less than a year after entering the school, she joined the Young Pioneers and achieved amazing results in her studies.Our whole class admires her and loves her.The cadres of the Overseas Chinese Committee often come to see her and praise her.She goes to school by tricycle every day.We all waited for her at the door and helped her out of the car.When school is over, if her car is late, we will wait with her at the door.During the team day, if we were outdoors, we would rush to get her a small stool. Sun Jiaying treated her the best.Sun Jiaying's nickname was originally "Grandma". She is gentle and loving to everyone, and she treats Zeng Xuejiao more like her own little granddaughter.She and Zeng Xuejiao lived in the same room. When Zeng Xuejiao was sick, she would get up at night to fill Zeng Xuejiao with a hot water bottle and rub her legs.She often tells us behind my back: "Zeng Xuejiao is so strong. Sometimes her leg hurts and shed tears in the middle of the night, but she never said a word about homesickness and mother..." As she spoke, her eyes turned red. 孙大爷经常在铁路上跑车,很少回家,孙大娘又常常忙街道上的工作,孙家英会把家事做得停停当当地,一点不让孙大娘操心。张老师就常常夸她。 曾雪姣有坚强的意志,她热爱祖国。孙家英爱劳动,又有温柔的性格,她能使曾雪姣深深地觉得祖国是个温暖的大家庭。这些高尚的品质,都是我应当向她们学习的! 明天姐姐要到西郊去赴夏令营了,她还是“营委”呢,管黑板报的——她是“黑板报专家”,她办了好几年黑板报了。 一下午她就忙着整理书,写笔记本子。晚上我帮她收拾东西,毯子啦,蚊帐啦,脸盆啦……都是我抢着替她去拿的,铺盖卷也是我帮她捆起来的。她高兴得直向我道谢。我忍不住要笑!我也不是整天淘气,我也会做点事呀。 今天姐姐一早就走了。王瑞芬也去,她也是“营委”,管文体活动的。王瑞萱本来说今天来找我玩,我等了一上午,她也没有来。 中午吃饭,只有爷爷、奶奶和我三个人。奶奶说小秋走了,显得冷静多了。又说她们该到广州了吧。爷爷说还没有呢,她们在汉口要换车的。我说过两年长江大桥造成了,从北京到广州就近多了。爷爷笑着叹一口气说:“你们这一代就是幸福,我们几十年不敢梦想的事,你们都遇见了!” 睡醒午觉起来,觉得屋子里空得很!我又不想看书,走到上屋,爷爷正在给爸爸写信。 我跟爷爷要了一张信纸,就坐在爷爷旁边写: 亲爱的爸爸: 好久没有给您写信了,这些日子我实在忙得很,您要原谅我呀! 您走后不久,我们家里就来了客人(陈姨和她的女儿小秋),小秋是个很可爱的孩子。 她新从日本回来,觉得祖国什么都新鲜,什么都好。她看见我们戴着红领巾,真是羡慕的了不得。我相信她上学以后,学习好,努力争取,她一定可以入队的。我曾陪她逛了北京的古迹,也看了一次戏和两次电影。她们真喜欢北京。陈姨说我们是有福气的孩子,因为我们能够在毛主席身边学习。昨天她们已经回到广州老家去了,姐姐今天也到夏令营去了。我一个人在家,就抽出工夫来写信。 爸爸,您真是幸福,在“人民的钢都”呆了这么久!您搜集了多少写作的材料?您到过那些工人叔叔家里去过没有?鞍山有几所小学校呢? 家里都好,爷爷和奶奶身体很好,妈妈和姐姐还是那样忙。有工夫请您多来信吧。hope u healthy! 您的小女儿奇 8月19日 晚上大家都睡的很早。我本来想等妈妈,但是过了九点妈妈还没有来! 今天天气好,早晨我帮助奶奶晒了两箱子的衣服。下午六点钟的时候,王瑞萱家的保姆来了,说王瑞萱的母亲叫我立刻就去。 到了王家,他们把我一直带到瑞萱的卧房里,她正在床上坐着呢,她母亲坐在床边,她父亲也在一旁站着。我一进去,他们就告诉我,原来昨天下午王瑞萱跟她父母到北海去玩,掉在水里了,是李春生把她救起来的。李春生把瑞萱交给她母亲之后,自己就跑了。瑞萱的母亲想去看看李春生,谢谢他。 这件事太意外了,我一点都摸不着头脑!我问瑞萱到底是怎么回事,瑞萱说:“昨天我本来是去找你玩的,后来我父亲说要去北海,我们三个人就去了。在五龙亭旁边,我碰见了林宜、范祖谋和李春生,他们都站在水边台阶上。我跟我爸爸妈妈要坐大船到漪澜堂去,他们坐在船里,我抱着船柱子站在船边上……”说到这里,她看了她母亲一眼,说:“你知道我妈妈总是罗罗嗦嗦地,当着船上许多人,她大声叫: '宝贝,进来坐下吧,掉下去不是玩的!'她越叫我越不好意思进来,她急了,站起来拉我,我使劲地往后一蹬,一下子就滑下去了……你知道我又不会游泳!当时我又吓昏了,就在水里乱扑腾一气,越扑腾越往下沉。只听见船上岸上嚷成一片。后来我嘴里鼻了里都进了水了,我都糊涂了,只觉得忽然有人把我的衣服领子揪住了,他拉着我往岸上游,几下子就到台阶边上了。我母亲又哭又笑地把我抱过来,我睁开眼睛,就看见林宜和李春生水淋淋地站在我面前,后面还有范祖谋和许多别的人。李春生一下子就钻出人圈子走了。林宜说他自己也跳下去了,但是他游得太慢,是李春生把我救出来的……” 我都听傻了!我问:“范祖谋不是游得最好吗?他怎么没有下去呀?”瑞萱摇摇头说: “我不知道,大概他也吓糊涂了。” 瑞萱的母亲说:“昨天真是把我们吓坏了,昨天半夜里,我还吓醒了呢。瑞萱这孩子,总是不听话,这次吃了大亏,下次就得听妈妈的话了!”瑞萱把头一扭,说:“您昨天若是不那样使劲地喊我拉我,我好好地在外面站着,决不会掉下去的!您总是把人当作三岁的孩子,下次我决不再跟您一块出去玩……”瑞萱的父亲就说:“好了,好了,不说了!”回头就对我说:“听说李春生是你们的同学,这孩子真是'见义勇为'!昨天我见他提着一只鞋,水淋淋地光着脚就跑了,我听说他家里很穷,我想送他一点钱,作为谢礼……”瑞萱看着她爸爸,把眉头一皱,说:“您总是说钱,多么难为情!不信您问陶奇,李春生会不会要钱?他一直就看不起我……”她母亲说:“不给钱就送点别的。他不是为救你丢了一只鞋吗?
