Accumulate Wealth in Life

Old Films of the Republic of China (17)

Seeing Lin Dehai following along, Lin Yuhuai said directly, "Don't mess around."

Lin Dehai let out a "ha", as if he liked to meddle in this nosy. He didn't say a word, just buried his head and pulled the marinated pork head into the bowl, then took a sip with the wine glass.

Lin Yuhuai didn't look at his father's unfortunate appearance, he just turned his face and asked Yang Zi, "When did you get the idea?"

Fourth Master didn't say anything. When he had such a thought, he must have been following Bai Kun for a few days before he was moved.

Yang Zi sniffed and stared at the plate of oriental fish in front of him and took two bites, as if the salty taste made him slightly uncomfortable, so he only frowned, but lowered his head and said nothing. Not as usual.

Lin Yutong brought him some vegetables, and said to ease the atmosphere: "Don't keep staring at that dried fish, this elbow tastes good, try it." Everyone calls it Dongyang fish, which is a kind of red seafood dried fish. It was shipped from Japan, the price is low, two copper plates can buy a large plate, and the taste is salty, especially durable. Poor people can't afford to eat meat, only this fish can afford it every now and then. Even the salt was saved. Yang Zi held the steamed bun in his hand, but he didn't pick any vegetables, just stared at the dried fish. Since I can't finish eating this dish, I have to stay, and I can serve other guests next time when it's hot.

At this moment, when Lin Yutong saw that the skin of the elbow was peeled off and dipped it in the vinegar sauce for the plate in front of him, the corner of his mouth moved, and then he raised his head, "I heard that the Japanese country runs a school in Liaodong, and asks the children to Learn Japanese. If everyone just wants to sit in the school and go to school, then in the future, when it's time for my children to go to school, will they only be able to learn Japanese at school?"

Lin Yuhuai's hand paused, and it took a long time before he said, "Yang Zi is more promising than me. In this way, it is really impossible for you to join the army now." Seeing that Yang Zi was still talking, he waved his hand, "Look at yourself. , thin and small, like a 12- or 13-year-old child. Even if you want to go, people don't want you. I thought you were going to mess around. So, you have to raise yourself first, and then talk about it. After that, every day Follow me to practice martial arts. You still have to go to school. If you can't read, you will be a martial artist! Do you think you can do it?"

Row! Just let yourself go.

Yang Zi hurriedly responded.

Mother Lin thought that Huaizi was a plan to slow down the army. As long as the child could be kept, everything could be said. Now that life is better, he eats and drinks at home, and it is estimated that he will not want to run out in two years. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face. He grabbed a chopstick and made a big fat meat over, "Your brother is right, listen to your brother. Get your body strong first."

Lin Dehai twitched the corner of his mouth, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a chopstick of fat for Lin Yuhuai and Lin Yutong, "Eat it! You two are the same as having a mother and not having a mother."

Damn! When Lao Tzu is dead. My son has raised your mother three over the years, when have you ever felt distressed? It was much better for that brat than for the roots of the Lin family. Find out, whose house is this?

Mother Lin was shaking with chopsticks in her hands. I didn't put maggots between mother and son like this. She glanced at her eldest son in panic, then turned to look at Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong only shivered in the face of the fat on the plate. The fourth master took advantage of the opportunity that the family over there stared at him, and quickly took the fat away.

Mother Lin didn't pay attention, and as compensation, she gave Lin Yutong another piece. Xingzi quickly stopped: "My eldest sister doesn't eat fat."

"..." Mother Lin froze on the spot with chopsticks, "Fat meat is a good thing, why don't you eat it?"

Of course, it is a good day to eat.

Lin Dehai was very satisfied with the fourth master, and immediately said: "In the past, our house also had beef, mutton and chicken, and pork was not on the table at all. Now, this pork has become the most fragrant. My daughter followed you, but it was a good time. It's a day."

With two polite words, the fourth master turned the topic to Yang Zi's studies: "Minli Middle School is a little far from home, but the school is doing well. I heard that there are more than 1,000 students..."

"The tuition fee isn't cheap either." Lin Dehai was a little bit hurt.

"Sixteen yuan per semester." Lin Yutong replied, "The family's income today is nothing. It's not a burden, right?" In the middle schools in Xiangjiang, the cheapest tuition for a semester is more than 300 yuan, and the expensive tuition is about 1500 yuan per semester. For many people this is astronomical.

Xingzi quickly answered: "It's not a burden, my mother and I can afford it."

When Yang Zi saw a few words, everyone settled the matter, and he said: "As long as the two subjects of Chinese and arithmetic pass 90 points, you can skip grades. I think I can graduate in two years at most." The school only offers six subjects. Classes, Chinese, self-cultivation, arithmetic, English, geography, history, and nothing else. And especially looking at Chinese and mathematics, as long as the results meet the standard, you can skip a grade. Apart from the tuition fee, the rest of the textbooks cost 8 cents per book. Less than fifty cents a semester. Coupled with the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, two dollars is worth the sky. Therefore, the annual cost for a middle school student is about 40 yuan.

Mother Lin was overjoyed when she saw that she really wanted to send her younger son to study, and after seeing Lin Dehai's face, she said, "Don't be like your fifth aunt's nephew, you didn't wear any cloth socks in school, you have to wear foreign socks, and you still have to wear them. If you have to wear leather shoes, our family is not used to your troubles."

Lin Yutong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. A pair of men's foreign socks was only five copper plates per pair, but they were not durable enough. Half a month was the limit. Even leather shoes can be bought for three or five dollars. For a boy like Yang Zi, it is estimated that large children's leather shoes can be worn, and it only costs more than one yuan per pair.

She wrote it down. On the fifth day of the first lunar month, when the mall opened, she went out to buy Yang Zi a dozen foreign socks and a pair of leather shoes that were not bad. He picked out a pen and paper again, as a gift for him to be admitted to middle school.

When he got home, the fourth master also came back.

"Why did you go?" Lin Yutong didn't hear that he was going out. Why did he go out to run errands after going out by himself?

The fourth master looked out, and then whispered: "Go and see, the cultural relics will be shipped tonight, and now the other side is surrounded by water."

Still going to be lucky.

The Forbidden City was evacuated.

I thought something was going to happen in the city, but I didn't expect that the city was very quiet, but in the second half of the night, gunshots rang out outside the city for half of the night. At dawn, a few sounds can be heard sporadically.

There were many people gathered in the yard, but none of them went out. The Lin family's house is a high-profile family, as long as it is not bombarded, bullets still can't get in. The sound of gunfire disturbed the atmosphere of the New Year. The troubled people are uneasy.

Cat Dong people have even more reason not to go out. After the tenth day of the first lunar month, the number of people visiting relatives became less and less. Lin Yutong didn't have any guests here. He thought that the New Year was just over. But on the eleventh day of the first lunar month, two uninvited guests came to the house.

Lin Yutong opened the door and saw two people standing outside the door wearing cotton robes, top hats, black wool scarves and old-fashioned glasses with black frames on their faces. , with an air of refinement on his body, "Excuse me, is Mr. Jin Siye at home?"

There is a gentleman behind the fourth master of Jin, why does it sound so awkward.

Lin Yutong didn't care about the awkwardness. Knowing that he was here to find the fourth master, he nodded: "Yes. I don't know who you are?"

"Hello, I am the head of education of the Teachers College, Su Yingjie, I have come to visit Mr. Jin." After speaking, he took off his top hat and buttoned it on his chest, bowing slightly.

Teacher's College? It should be the Teachers College.

The head of education of a university is equivalent to the vice-principal in charge of education. That's probably the distinction. She couldn't understand why, anyway, she was a guest when she came to the door. No matter why you came, let people in first. "Please come in."

Having said that, let the way out and call for people to come in first. This person was very polite. He didn't walk around the yard when he entered the door, but waited for Lin Yutong to close the door before following Lin Yutong without looking around.

The yard itself is not big, and a few meters have reached the entrance of the main room. He stood at the door of the main room and greeted him: "It turned out to be Mr. Su, I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

Long Yang is of course a polite word. Never heard of such a person before.

Su Yingjie didn't seem to expect the fourth master to be so young. He was stunned for a moment and then cupped his hands: "I thought it was an old scholar after reading Mr. Jin's article, but I didn't expect to be such a young talent. It's really surprising." Just now I thought the girl who opened the door was Mr. Jin's daughter, but now it seems that this is clearly a young couple.

Fourth Master hurriedly invited people inside: "You're really over the top."

Lin Yutong went to make tea for the two of them, and then sent them up.

Su Yingjie lifted the tea lid and kept saying good tea. When I put down the tea bowl, I glanced at the inside of the square table, it seemed to be a manuscript, and when I looked again, it was actually the theory of meal matching. This was also sorted out by Lin Yutong when he was fine. Just a change of mind.

"This is also Mr. Jin's masterpiece." Su Yingjie pointed to the manuscript and hurriedly asked Fourth Master.

The fourth master waved his hand: "That was arranged by my wife. I don't know anything about it."

Su Yingjie looked at Lin Yutong in surprise: "This time it's really the right time. I didn't expect there to be unexpected gains."

The fourth master looked at Su Yingjie and said, "I haven't asked Mr. Su yet, what do you mean when you're a humble person?"

"Mr. Jin is too modest." Su Yingjie looked at the fourth master with some warm eyes: "I came this time to invite Mr. Su to come out and teach at our teacher's college."

Teaching?

This was completely beyond the expectations of Fourth Master and Lin Yutong.

"Why did you find me here?" Fourth Master was a little surprised.

Su Yingjie was also a little embarrassed, "It's like this, where I live is not far from here, separated by two alleys. I read Mr.'s article in the newspaper before, but I never thought that he would be so close to me. , I heard that the children around me call Mr. Jin a Jin Dashan person, so I just inquired a few times, and I know that you are Mr. Jin who writes for the newspaper. So, I took the liberty to visit the door and want to invite you to teach."

Lin Yutong and Siye understood, there is a saying nowadays, "Beijing is the old man, the teacher is poor, and Qinghua Yanjing can accommodate." This statement was later misunderstood by many people, who thought it meant that Peking University was too old, Normal University was too poor, and Yanjing and Qinghua were easy to take exams and could be accommodating. Actually it's not like that at all. This is completely a standard for mate selection for intellectual women in Beijing. This Peking University elder means that the people who go to school at Peking University are older, and most of them are married; Normal University was poor because the students of Normal University were basically the children of poor families at that time, because Normal University did not need tuition fees, so it was Normal University is poor; Qinghua and Yanjing are accommodating, that is to say, those who go to Qinghua and Yanjing are good mates. They have a good family background and a good school.

It is estimated that this Teachers College is actually the same thing as the Normal University. It recruits students from underprivileged families, and it is free to study. In this case, the salary of school teachers is a problem. Fourth Master Jin, a person of great goodness, is obviously someone who doesn't value money, so in Su Yingjie's heart, this salary is easy to say.

Fourth Master understood what was going on, so he asked first, "I don't know which subject you want to hire me as a teacher?"

"The history of Chinese language, you can see in the article that your skills are extremely profound." Su Yingjie hurriedly put on a tall hat when he saw that he had a door.

But this is not what the fourth master wants to teach. Thinking of what he needs to do in the future, the most important thing is talents, so he said: "I can agree to this appointment, but I don't know if your school has science and engineering. The thing I want to teach is physics. , mechanical disciplines."

Su Yingjie was shocked, "Mr. Jin understands this?"

"Study in the United States, this is what I learned." The fourth master can only cope with this. If there is a student with a little professional knowledge as an assistant, it will be more effective.

Su Yingjie only felt that he had found a treasure. "Naturally... the school has a physics major, but it is not good if it does not have a mechanical major. As long as Mr. Jin can teach, many students are willing to enroll in this mechanical class. The national crisis is at stake, and the significance of this major is immeasurable. ." Very excited.

"Then I'll have no problem." Fourth Master nodded to Su Yingjie, "When school starts and I need to go there, just give me a word."

Not even a word about salary.

Su Yingjie sighed in his heart, and was a little embarrassed on his face: "Sir, the school's funds are limited, and the monthly salary can only be 30 yuan..." It may not always be paid on time and in full.

Fourth Master waved his hand: "it's okay. It doesn't matter."

Thirty is not much. The highest university professor can get 500, of course, the lowest clerk is also above 20. A substitute teacher, thirty a month, is really not much. But we don't go to college to make a living.

Su Yingjie hurriedly got up and shook hands with the fourth master: "Thank you so much! Thank you so much!" After speaking, he looked at Lin Yutong again, "I have the audacity to call my younger brother and sister, I wonder if I can hire my younger brother and sister to teach as well."

Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment. "Me? What am I going to teach?" This is not realistic.

"You may not know our school. Although the school is a co-educational school, there are relatively few female students in other majors. Only the home economics department is all female students. After graduating from the home economics department, there are two ways out: one is to be a wife, To be able to manage the family and educate children; another way out is nutritionist. Although our country only has the name of nutritionist, in the West, these professions are already very mature." Su Yingjie smiled, "We can count on it. Set a precedent."

It turned out to be hired to teach nutrition. This is fine.

Lin Yutong looked at the fourth master, and when he saw him nodding, he said to Su Yingjie, "Since Mr. Su thinks I am suitable, then I will try it."

Su Yingjie immediately stretched out his hand: "I haven't asked the female master Gao's name yet."

"Don't dare, Lin Yutong." This is her name on the file she left at the police station now.

"Mr. Lin." Su Yingjie shook Lin Yutong's hand, "I'll ask you later."

This guy didn't stay at home much, so he went back excitedly. As a result, in the evening, he came in a hurry again, and this time he came with two letters of appointment. "Our dean specially asked me to come here, please be sure to visit tomorrow."

Fourth Master readily agreed.

The principal of the Teachers College, whose surname is Song, is Song Huaimin. It is an old school international student who has studied in Germany for several years and travelled in Europe. His wife, Ms. Yao Hua, met him when he was studying in France. It is said that the pursuit was enthusiastic at that time, and it was quite romantic.

The two lived in a small villa with only one daughter, who was only eighteen years old. I heard that he is studying at a church university, but he is not at home today.

After chatting for a while, and getting to know each other's family and experiences, Principal Song knew that the fourth master could speak German. He looked very pleasantly surprised, the two of them chatted for a long time, and they seemed to agree very much. Ms. Yao Hua is very elegant and very foreign. Maybe it has something to do with her upbringing. At home, she wears a lace-trimmed Western dress, and she serves coffee instead of tea. Staying for meals is also a watery French dish. Seeing that Fourth Master and Lin Yutong's dining etiquette is natural, this makes Yao Hua's heart for the two immediately rise. In her opinion, it is considered that he has met the same kind.

But he didn't know that when the two returned home, Lin Yutong took off his big clothes and asked the fourth master, "Aren't you full? Want something to eat? I'll do it."

"Put the bowl of noodles and peel two cloves of garlic. It's getting late, so don't bother." The fourth master said, and went to the study, where he had to quickly sort out the lecture notes. Some disciplines are just beginning. If there is no suitable textbook, the teacher will sort out the handouts and hand them over to the school, which will then engrave them. So, like universities that don't have tuition fees, it's not exactly no money at all. For example, the lecture fee is several dollars per semester. This is money that must be paid. The school starts on the 18th day of the first lunar month. Within these three days, the fourth master has to sort out a month's lecture notes, and then hand them over to the school. They have to engrave them for the students before the school starts.

Therefore, before the end of the year, both of them were busy.

Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, two young men who looked like students came to get the lecture notes. They didn't go home during the Chinese New Year, but did work-study work and chores at school. The fourth master handed over the two handouts to them, so he didn't care anymore. Just waiting for school to start.

It's a magical experience to be reburied in a university gate. These school buildings are very new, with some European architectural style. The physics department where the fourth master is going and the housekeeping where Lin Yutong is going are not in the same teaching building. From the outside, the building where the Home Economics Department is located is a little newer. Once inside, it is warm and inviting. The heating was blazing hot. The fourth master explained in a low voice: "The female students who come to school here are all from a small family. Maybe the cultural class is not necessarily good, and the family is not too rich, but they can still get tens of dollars a year. They are here. The only major that the school charges for.”

Lin Yutong understood in seconds. These girls are afraid that they will not be able to get into other majors or other schools just by looking at their grades, but the family hopes to find a good family after gilding their children. In other words, most of them are for the purpose of being a good wife.

Probably because of this, Lin Yutong's salary is much higher than that of the fourth master, and he can get fifty per month.

This is actually a very ironic thing.

Fourth Master sent Lin Yutong to the door of the office, and then turned to go to the Physics Department.

At this time, there were already two teachers sitting in the office of the Department of Home Economics. And both of them are male. Of course, considering the courses offered by the Department of Home Economics, it is not surprising that there are male teachers.

These female students dabble in basic courses such as philosophy, history, literature, mathematics, physical education, English, and sociology. In addition, professional courses include women's studies, Chinese and Western etiquette, life philosophy, home design, family nutrition, family and marriage, etc. Of course, we also need to carry out training in domestic economics. The four-year university time is full. Students must graduate with the height of philosophy, the thickness of history, the depth of life, the strength of management, the precision of mathematics and the temperature of literature.

And what Lin Yutong teaches is a relatively important course, family nutrition.

There are teachers from other majors in the basic subjects, and the teachers in this office are all teachers from the department. The two men in front of them were both in suits and leather shoes.

"Ma Xiang, philosophy of life."

"High Cold, Women's Studies."

Lin Yutong wrote down the two people and protected his house. Was assigned a desk by the heater and by the window. This guy is nice, airy in summer and warm in winter.

Lin Yutong took off the coat outside and put it on the back of the chair, and two women came in one after another, looking like they were in their thirties. One was wearing a plaid cotton cheongsam, black stockings and a black cheongsam, with short ear-length hair, looking a little serious. The other person is wearing a coat and trousers, and has big wavy curly hair. He is very modern, and he has a three-point smile when he sees everyone.

Seriously, he just nodded and said hello to Lin Yutong, and announced that his name was Xin Tian, ​​who taught family and marriage.

And the one who loves to laugh leans over to Lin Yutong, sees Lin Yutong's compliments from head to toe, and asks Lin Yutong where he bought this turtleneck sweater? Why are the suspenders on me so beautiful. Very envious. After talking for about half an hour and accepting the numerous veiled glances from Teacher Xin Tian, ​​Lin Yutong realized that this person was called Lei Yangyang, who taught Chinese and Western etiquette.

After Lei Yangyang sat back, Ma Xiang and Gao Han all leaned over, and Lin Yutong found Xin Tian's brows wrinkled a dozen times. There is no way, the desks of the two are next to each other, and they have to sit face to face, and it is difficult to see.

It seems that there are not many people in this office, but it is really lively.

The last person who came in was the head of the department, a skinny old man in his fifties. Everyone called him Mr. Qingyun, but it was unclear who his surname was. Nowadays, literati are all about words, numbers, nicknames, etc. Anyway, Lin Yutong didn't call him his official title, he just followed Da Liu and called him Mr. Qingyun. He is also a substitute, teaching home design. After he came in, he warmly greeted Lin Yutong and welcomed the newcomer. That's when the timetable was issued, and it was the start of school.

"Mr. Lin." Mr. Qingyun said about the new semester's arrangements, and then assigned tasks to Lin Yutong. "You just came, you don't know the situation of our Home Economics Department. Don't look at the Home Economics Department."

Just as he was talking, he heard Xin Tian cough.

The old gentleman took back what he just said embarrassingly and said with a smile: "We have a considerable number of students in the home economics major. The school has just opened its second year, and there are no graduates yet, but there are only two grades, and there are already two hundred students. There are many students. Before, the professor who taught nutrition had a physical problem and couldn't come. Next, you will be responsible for his work. We only have these teachers in our major." He scanned several people. , can't afford any more. "Everyone is a class leader and a counselor. Mr. Lin should take up the work of the second class in this year."

Lin Yutong hurriedly responded, "It is my duty to do my job."

Today is the start of school for teachers, and tomorrow is the day for students to report. Some work has been arranged in a hurry, and the rest of the time is free.

When Mr. Qingyun left, the office suddenly loosened up. Ma Xiang shouted at Lei Yangyang, "I have two theater tickets, do you want to go together?"

As soon as Lei Yangyang had a smile in his eyes, Gao Han said: "What's the point of an old drama, you should watch a new drama. I have drama tickets here, and there are several..." He said, and immediately As soon as I sent it down, I gave two to Lin Yutong: "I know, Mr. Lin's husband has also come to teach at our school. You can go together when you are free."

Lin Yutong took it with a smile, and thanked him hurriedly.

So talking and laughing, Lei Yangyang went out first with Gao Han. Ma Xiang also gave Lin Yutong two theater tickets: "Quan invited a new colleague at that time."

People don't want it, you give it to me. Should I praise you for being honest, or should I say that you are not a human being.

After a rough acquaintance with colleagues, Lin Yutong went directly to the teaching building where the Department of Physics was sitting without staying too long. There is no heating in this building, and it feels a little cold when you enter it. In the end, before he could go upstairs, he saw the fourth master and a dozen young men moving tables and chairs.

"What's this for?" Lin Yutong leaned over and asked the fourth master who was in command.

"Some students from other places came early. I heard that there was a new mechanical class, and they were very enthusiastic. The classroom I prepared was a little small. It's good to move to the large classroom on the first floor to teach." The expression on the fourth master's face was quite Glad.

But this can be practiced by this teacher, and people must not be exhausted.

Fourth Master understood what Lin Yutong meant, "But what should I do? How many things can one person do with no talent?"

As a result, when the school started the next day, the fourth master accepted eighty-six students who had skipped majors in one class. Basically, they are students of Sinology, History, Philosophy, and these majors. In their opinion, learning these things is not very helpful for China now. Especially after hearing that some of the lecture notes were about basic knowledge of firearms and shells, these students became even more enthusiastic.

The fifty handouts that I had prepared were obviously not enough.

Eighty-six students, this is because the classroom is really running out of seats, so we stopped enrolling. Later, after reading the lecture notes, Principal Song mentioned it to the fourth master, hoping to allow students to sit in during the class. The students who were in attendance were all sitting in the aisles with their own benches or simply standing at the back of the classroom and outside the window.

Fourth Master agreed without thinking. As a result, on the first day of class, the classroom was flooded with water. There are even a lot of female students who also crowded to listen to the class.

And Lin Yutong stood on the podium at this time, facing the forty-eight students sitting below, and started his first class.

"Nutrition, when you mention it, you will think it came from the West. But in fact, as early as 7,000 years ago, ancient China already had nutrition in the actual sense."

As soon as Lin Yutong spoke, there was a 'coax' from below. The reason for this is because the government wanted to outlaw traditional Chinese medicine and promote Western medicine in an all-round way.

"7,000 years ago, the initial research of human beings started from whether food was poisonous. The well-known Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs, and its purpose was precisely to distinguish whether food was poisonous. In 3,000 years ago, society was stable. The birth of the Yellow Emperor, And pushed forward the study of food, there is a book called "Huangdi Neijing". It records the core of food: five grains for nourishment, five fruits for help, five animals for benefit, five vegetables for filling, and the smell is harmonious and obeyed. Replenishing essence and nourishing qi. What do these words mean? It means that 3,000 years ago, our ancestors of the Chinese people believed that grain and rice must be eaten, fruits should be eaten together, and meat can be added to taste, and all kinds of vegetables are supplementary energy. Food, these are eaten together, so they are suitable for the human body. To sum up this sentence, it is four parts of vegetarian food and one part of meat. This is a very beautiful ratio, in line with the laws of nature..."

"...And 2000 years ago, the father of Western medicine, Shi. Pokhara, put forward the law of diet: treat your food as medicine, not your medicine as food. This is a clear proposal to eat more food Take less medicine and prevent diseases in advance. Around 1616, Descartes founded analytic geometry and established a new view of thinking. His main thing is to decompose food from the whole and determine the basis of thought..."

In a class, Lin Yutong can talk endlessly. But again, she had to repeat the same content several times. Sometimes I think it would be great if I had a big class and only taught it once.

Outside the classroom, Principal Song and Su Yingjie listened for a while before leaving quietly.

Su Yingjie smiled and said, "Principal, isn't it good?"

Song Huaimin nodded, "You have done a good job of this matter. When it comes to nutrition science, it is really blank. The teachers who can be hired are either from Western medicine or from traditional Chinese medicine. In this way, Mr. Lin is inclusive and impartial, and there is really nothing objective. Good! Very good!"

There must be a difference between Lin Yutong's class and the current teacher's lecture. But the response from the students was also overwhelming.

After class, Lin Yutong basically couldn't go back to the office. The students gathered around to ask one question after another, and there was no such gap at all.

"Sir, when I came to school, I wanted to make more friends and a network of contacts. Because the things I learned, other than making us look like a well-born lady, seemed really useless. But Now, after listening to Mr.’s class, I realized that we are not useless. I think, we can not only be wives, but actually can do many occupations. For example, hospitals, such as taking care of patients and wounded in different situations.”

Lin Yutong smiled, "I will add some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and first aid care to you as appropriate. So, no one is useless."

A girl from a good family is not allowed to study nursing at home. But nurses are the most in short supply in hospitals in the rear of the war. She didn't know whether the seeds she sowed now could sprout, but she could only try her best.

Lin Yutong took several classes, and every morning four classes were full. But there is no class in the afternoon. Either at school or at home, it's fine. But the fourth master was destined to spend his time at school. There are so many students without foundation who want to finish the basic theory, and the time is quite tight.

When she went to find Fourth Master for dinner at noon, he was surrounded by a circle of students.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the fourth master got out, and his voice was hoarse when he spoke. But it makes Lin Yutong feel distressed.

You can't go home after lunch. It's not worth it to go back and forth for more than an hour. Can only make a living in the cafeteria.

The canteen of the Teachers College is not small, and the dishes are also priced. Most of the students are two wowotou and a bowl of radish soup is a meal. There are also some female students from better families who want steamed bread and rice to stir-fry.

The two walked around inside and received greetings from many students. Only in the corner I saw a few teachers eating. The food is also quite bitter. Seeing that there is little water left in the canteen. Only then did the two transfer out of school. They ordered four dishes and one soup in a small shop, and spent one dollar for a meal.

Before class time, the fourth master went to class enthusiastically again. The only thing Lin Yutong could do was to stuff him a thermos cup and drink the water he brought home to raise his throat.

But people can't stand this twist. Lin Yutong didn't go to the office, but went directly to Principal Song, "...Can you give us a dormitory? We can rest for a while at noon..."

Song Huaimin slapped his forehead, "I just said I forgot something, but that's not the case. The dormitory... that's what it should be."

When Lin Yutong and the Deputy Chief of Logistics came to the teaching building, 10,000 horses were galloping past. Walking in the long and dim corridor, this feeling is so familiar, like returning to the former tube building...

The author has something to say: see you tomorrow
