Chapter 2 Burning sorrow with wine
Half a month, Zhu Daidong gradually adapted to the simple and orderly life of the school. Because he graduated from the Provincial Normal University, he was arranged to be the head teacher as soon as he came to the school, and also served as the Chinese of the other two classes in the first year of junior high school. He is very busy during the day. He has at least five classes a day and has to lead a class. Only after school can he have his discretion.
But Zhu Daidong is not used to being idle, because as long as he is idle, there is a figure in his mind. But it's impossible for him to devote himself to his work. He doesn't have a young man who doesn't even have **. How can he actively yearn for work? Therefore, no matter what he does, he can finish it and never do much.
I don't have the spirit to go to class every day. It's completely to complete the task. For students, it is also left unreleged. Although President Liu Tao mentioned this to him several times, every time Zhu Daidong only agreed in person, he still did what he should do behind his back, which caused other teachers in the school to complain about him, especially the middle school teachers and students assigned with him in those days, who gloated. Who let Zhu Daidong graduate from the provincial normal university, and They are just middle school teachers and students.
Such a life is full of swing, loss and sadness for him. He feels that he is just an outsider, a drop of oil, which can't be integrated into the water of the tree ridge.
During this period, Zhu Daidong drinks alone as soon as he has a chance. He doesn't have many friends at school. If he has to say that he has a friend, Hu Lihua, the English substitute teacher in the class, may be half.
Hu Lihua is the only substitute teacher in the school. She is unmarried, but she has a partner. I heard that she is an officer in the army. She has bent eyebrows, apricot eyes, red lips and white teeth, and dark hair buns behind her head, which is very eye-catching. At the same time, there is also a pair of straight **, which makes people involuntarily look there.
Her desk is just opposite Zhu Daiping, so Zhu Daidong can sometimes look at her openly and don't attract other people's attention. Before Zhu Daidong came to report, the affairs of the class were represented by her, and now she also serves as the English teacher in the class. The two often discuss a few words because of the things in the class, which makes Zhu Daidong's mood better.
But no matter how lonely Zhu Daidong is, he won't go to her. As for the other teachers in the school, Zhu Daidong will not look for them. When I first came to Shusuling, the school also held a welcome banquet for the new teacher. The so-called banquet is for the whole school to have a meal in the small canteen, one stewed tofu, one stir-fried pork, one braised tofu, one Mapo tofu, one home-cooked tofu, and four cold dishes. This is simply a tofu banquet, but this is already the highest hospitality standard of the school.
A total of five teachers, three boys and two girls, were assigned to Shushuling Middle School this year. Except for Zhu Daidong, who is a college student, the other four are middle school teachers and students. At that time, President Liu Tao introduced Zhu Daidong alone. What a top student in college? He couldn't wait to give all the praises to Zhu Daidong. This is a college student named by Liu Tao. To praise Zhu Daidong is to praise himself for his own vision and courage.
How could Zhu Daidong be praised so much by others in front of his face? It became more and more awkward. In addition, he was in a terrible mood. At that time, his laughter was not much better than crying.
But in this way, he still created an enemy for Zhu Daidong. At least the four teachers and students were full of disdain and hostility at that time, especially the two in the same dormitory, who couldn't wait to eat Zhu Daidong.
Originally, the relationship between the five people was not bad, but after such a thing happened, the four middle teachers and students hugged the group and isolated Zhu Daidong alone. Moreover, Zhu Daidong once overheard them talking about themselves, sneering. Isn't it just a diploma? There may not be many talents to learn, but what if there is? Being able to teach good students is the real ability, followed by scribbling laughter. At that time, Zhu Daidong's face suddenly seemed to be burned by a charcoal fire.
The few newcomers who should have been talked about are like strangers. Zhu Daidong's relationship with other teachers has not yet reached the point of being able to talk about everything and drink happily. When he bought the wine, he simply didn't take it back to school. He didn't come back after drinking it alone. When I went back to the dormitory, I fell asleep regardless of the alcohol.
Zhu Daidong was often drunk, which made the two middle school teachers and students in the same dormitory despise him even more, and sometimes scolded the locust in front of him. For example, how to "exause" the wine bag and rice bag in front of him? What's the difference between such a metaphor and a face-to-face slap? If it is according to Zhu Daidong's original nature, I'm afraid a fierce battle is inevitable. Although Zhu Daidong is poor, he is poor with backbone and self-esteem. If he doesn't even have self-esteem, what's the point of living?
But now Zhu Daidong has put up with it, and even he has no intention of getting angry at all. Such a thing is no longer worth his anger... However, Zhu Daidong has made obvious changes in class. According to the students, Mr. Zhu's current class is very lively and easy to understand, especially classical Chinese. Listening to his class is like listening to a story, which is particularly interesting.
Public and private should be clear. This is the standard set by Zhu Daidong for himself. You can't let dozens of students in a class suffer because he is depressed alone, right? When he was in college, Zhu Daidong once made up his mind to contribute to China's education cause. But now that I have climbed the three-foot platform, I have forgotten all this.
Although their behavior is shameful, it makes them soberly aware of their responsibilities. They are shocked. This word can describe Zhu Daidong's mood. This incident has had a lot of impact on Zhu Daidong. Since then, he has always treated his work with both public and private. No matter what profession he is engaged in, no matter what position he does.
Since others don't like that he is full of alcohol, Zhu Daidong simply drinks outside, and sometimes even stays up all night. But he has to spend more money to spend the night outside. Although Zhu Daidong is also a state employee, his salary is not high. If he can save this money, he can buy two more bottles of dry.
Every day after school, Zhu Daidong carries two bottles of wine around the countryside. He needs to find a quiet place that can shelter from the wind and rain. As he became more and more familiar with Shushuling Township, he was finally found an excellent place by Zhu Daidong.
There is a Sanqing Taoist temple on the mountain behind the Shuling Township Government. At the beginning of liberation, all the Taoist priests inside were driven away and remained empty. Until a few years, I don't know when and where a Taoist priest came. As soon as he went to the Sanqing Taoist temple, he saw that there was no one to manage here. It happened that he didn't want to wander around anymore, so he sequently pretended to be the host, called himself "unknown Taoist priest", and The people around him didn't embarrass him much. Even after he came, every time he went to the market on the first, fifteenth or the tenth day of the first lunar month, someone occasionally went to give him some incense money.
In addition to those specific days, it is very quiet here during the day, and at night, it is even more silent. Zhu Daidong casually found a room near the gate. After lighting the candle, he found that there were tables and stools inside. Although it was a little dirty, Zhu Daidong did not have too high requirements for Clean it casually, and one person will drink by himself there.
Zhu Daidong doesn't know when his drinking capacity has reached an unfathomable point. In the past, he also drank, but the amount of beer was only one bottle. The farmer's self-brewed rice wine was one cup at most, about two taels. But during this period, I don't know whether to anesthetize his nerves or forget the pain in the back of his head, and his drinking volume began to increase. When he first arrived at school, he could only drink half a catty of Laobai, but now, a catty of Laobai** can drink two bottles a night. Lao Bai Gan is a high wine of 52 degrees. Generally, it can be said that they can drink half a catty. If they can drink one catty Lao Bai Gan, they can be called a master drinker in places like Shuling Township, but now Zhu Daidong is silent, but he can drink two catties.
Lao Baigan is a sorghum wine produced by Shuling Winery. It is mellow and powerful, and the local people also like it. After Zhu Daidong arrived at Shushuling Middle School, he soon fell in love with this kind of cheap and mellow liquor.
Open a bottle of wine, put it on the braised dried incense, peanuts, etc. bought by the supply and marketing agency, chew a peanut, and then drink a sip of the old white dry. No one thinks about it and does nothing. Such a day is really comfortable. Only in such a period of time can Zhu Daidong forget everything and enjoy it. I never thought that as soon as he didn't take a sip, a person flashed into the room, like a gust of wind, but faster than the wind, as fast as a ghost. He was so scared that Zhu Daidong picked up the bottle on the table and was about to fight back.
"This benegist is polite. Don't panic. Poor Tao is the master of this view." The man who came in saw that Zhu Daidong was panicked and said quickly. He was afraid that it would be too late, and Zhu Daidong would rush up and fight with him.
In fact, Zhu Daidong already had a plan to duel with him. He suddenly appeared in such a place in the middle of the night. What kind of good person can he be? Although he has not learned martial arts, he grew up in the countryside and has a lot of strength. When he jumped up just now, he had already grabbed the wine bottle on the table in his hand. If this man had a moment later, Zhu Daidong's sprinkled bottle had blossomed on his head.
"Who are you?" Zhu Dai Dongqiang was frightened by self-pressure and asked in a low voice.
In panic, Zhu Daidong didn't hear clearly what he just said.
"Poor Taoism is the master of the original view." The Taoist who came in put his hands together and saluted Zhu Daidong.
With the wax light in the room, Zhu Daiguang finally saw the appearance of the person coming. The long hair was coiled into a bun on the top of the head, but it was forked with a chopstick in the middle. His face was ruddy, and a big red wine trough in the middle had a huge nose, and the beard under his jaw was uneven, as if it had not been sorted out for several months. What's more, his Taoist robe glittered under the reflection of wax light. Zhu Daidong's eyesight was very good. He soon understood that it was not that his Taoist robe was magical, but that the grease on it was so thick that it could be used as a mirror. It was a sloppy ghost.
"Don't know the long method number?" Seeing that he had no malice, and he was also the owner here, Zhu Daidong soon calmed down.
"If there is a number, there is no number, and if there is a name, there is no name. If there is a number, there is no name. If there is a number, there is no number, there is no number. If there is no number, there is no number, there is no number, there is no number, there is no number, The unknown Taoist priest seemed to be a familiar person. He sat at the table by himself. His dark hand grabbed a few pieces of dried brine brought by Zhu Daidong and put them in his mouth. He began to eat it.
"Unknown Taoist priest?" Zhu Daidong didn't know that he was really an unknown Taoist priest, but he just teased himself. Seeing that he didn't regard himself as an outsider, he slowly sat down. Anyway, it's better to have someone to drink with you than to drink alone.
"Lord, poor Tao came to smell the fragrance of your wine. I wonder if you can give me a glass of wine?" The unknown Taoist priest said with a smile that although he is a Taoist priest, he does not have as many rules as monks. He belongs to the kind of people who have been left in the hearts of real people.
"This wine is made in my hometown. What's the fragrance of the wine?" Zhu Daidong smiled. He just wanted to drink some stuffy wine this time. He bought two bottles of old white dried and a bag of braised dried and peanuts in the supply and marketing agency, and he didn't ask for a cup. At that moment, he put the wine bottle in his hand in front of the unknown Taoist priest.
Zhu Daidong rarely communicates with others in school except after class. There are rivers and lakes where there are people. He only speaks three words to every person, and he can't leave all his heart away. This is what he saw from a martial arts novel. After joining the work, he soon felt that this is really a famous saying. Now this unknown Taoist priest has never known him, and the two have no interest entanglement, so he is willing to talk to him.
"No matter what kind of wine, as long as you are within a hundred feet of poverty, you can smell its fragrance and pursue its source." The unknown Taoist priest had honestly grabbed the wine bottle in his hand, raised his neck and muttered a few mouths, for fear that others would rob him. In a blink of an eye, half a bottle of wine entered his stomach.
"The Taoist priest is really a good drinker." Zhu Daidong secretly shouted that this old white dry is a catty of fifty-two degrees. I'm afraid he has to have three taels in his mouth. This unknown Taoist priest can be called a huge amount.
"What is this? If I'm ten years younger, I can drink more than half of this bottle of wine in one bite." The unknown Taoist burped, grabbed a piece of dried braised incense and chewed it in his mouth.
Just before the unknown Taoist priest came, Zhu Daidong had been drinking for a while. Now there should be about eight taels of wine in the wine bottle, 52 degrees, and he drank eight taels in one bite. This is no longer a large amount, it is simply a wine fairy.
Zhu Daidong came here to drink alone. Now he is accompanied by an unknown Taoist priest. He is more interested in wine. He immediately picked up the bottle and raised his neck and took two sips like an unknown Taoist priest. Lao Baigan in Shuling Township has a history of decades. Since the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this winery has been set up in the township. It tastes spicy and powerful. After two mouths, the throat goes to the stomach, just like a fire dragon.
"Released" Zhu Daidong shouted loudly. He has also made great progress in drinking now. I remember that when he was in school, he even blushed when he drank a glass of beer, but now, there is no problem for him to drink a catty of dry. Perhaps as others said, he also needs to practice his drinking. He practiced almost every day during this period of time, and unconsciously the amount of alcohol However, this time he will not take two bottles of wine to Sanqing Taoist Temple at a time.
"Oh, why is it empty?" The unknown Taoist priest did not realize that Zhu Daidong was also massive. He only felt sorry for most of the bottle of wine. He only took a sip, but was drunk by the other party.
"It's okay. There's another bottle." Zhu Daidong shook his head and did not feel dizzy, and the hot feeling of his throat gradually disappeared. It seemed that he had practiced his drinking capacity. He just drank more than the unknown Taoist priest.
"You can't drink too much this time." Seeing that there was wine again, the unknown Taoist priest's eyes were shining. After taking a big sip, "Friendship" reminded Zhu Daidong as if he had bought the wine.
"Good." Zhu Daidong took the wine bottle and took a big sip, but in the eyes of the unknown Taoist priest, he was heartbroken. Zhu Daidong is secretly funny. This old Tao has reached the point of obsession with "wine". Can a good Taoist priest be a good Taoist priest?" Unnamed Taoist priest, is your name really 'unnamed'?
"That's not true. There was also a Taoist sign, but it hasn't been used for a long time. I'm about to forget it. I'm too lazy to think about it and remember it. Isn't it good to call it nameless?" The unknown Taoist priest took another big sip of wine, as if he didn't want to talk about this problem, and said lightly.
The Taoist name "unnamed" sounds elegant and mysterious. At the beginning, it was very popular with the local villagers. Otherwise, with his image, will there be incense in this Taoist temple? I'm afraid that even if there is incense, it will be after driving him away. A large part of the reason why he can stay in the Taoist temple now is because of his Taoist name.
The unknown Taoist priest didn't want to mention it. Zhu Daidong did not ask any more, and the unknown Taoist priest also tacitly did not ask about Zhu Daidong's situation. The two of them just drank wine and chatted casually. As a result, most of the wine was robbed by the unknown Taoist priest, and I haven't had a good time, but I can drink with others. Listening to the unknown Taoist telling anecdotes from all over the world, my mood has also relaxed a lot.
After returning to school, it was already the middle of the night. The school was very quiet. Hearing his squeaky footsteps, Zhu Daidong was very happy. Although he did not talk about his feelings with the unknown Taoist priest, after talking to someone for half a night, he felt that the boredom in his heart was much less. After returning to the dormitory, Zhu Daidong ignored the earth-shaking snoring sound made by the other two teachers in the dormitory. He put the quilt on his head and soon fell asleep.
