There were always endless practice questions and homework for the third-year students. They were very busy every day, but they didn't know what was the point of being so busy. He lived the same life day after day. Occasionally, they would stop writing and think about their lives.
They lived this kind of life every day. Did they not know that this kind of life was meaningful? They really wanted someone to tell them what they were busy with.
No one could give a perfect reason to convince themselves. Most of them just sighed and continued to bury their heads, doing homework that was higher than their own, plunging into the sea of bitterness.
For the third-year students, they would have a mock exam every other day. For some reason, there were so many exams for the third-year students that it was a little suffocating. Students who had been through the third year of high school might have a deep understanding. Their daily life was just eating, sleeping, and studying. They always carried the expectations of their parents and friends, and the care of their teachers, silently enduring this boring life. They yearned to return to their original selves one day, and that day would be after the college entrance examination.
"Everyone, after entering the third year of high school, we are all committed to learning. We haven't held a class meeting for a long time, so much so that we almost forgot about this group. This time, with the consent of the form teacher, she allowed us to use this self-study period to hold a class meeting. He had to reflect on his past and his future. Therefore, we have to make good use of this class and not let down our form teacher's good intentions.”A boy who wasn't very tall on the podium said.
This boy was not very tall. He had a very nice name. His name was Lan Jing. When many people first heard his name, they would unconsciously associate his name with the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, which had a long history, rich culture, and beauty that many students yearned for. He was only 1.55 meters tall. He had a unique understanding of China's history and politics.
Although his results weren't as outstanding as Wang Mengqin and Xiao Hong's. However, he had very strong management skills, which many people lacked. Therefore, he was deeply loved by his teachers and students.
Yu Jiaqian heard that Lan Jing was treating this class as a class meeting. She quickly put down her homework and clapped her hands excitedly."That's right, class monitor. It's been a long time since our class held a class meeting.”
Lan Jing looked at Yu Jiaqian with a smile and replied,""Yes, I feel the same way. However, since entering the third year of high school, we have been busy with our studies. He even had less time to talk to his classmates. Thinking about how happy and nostalgic the past was.”
"I think you're reminiscing about the great achievements you've made!" Yu Jiaqian interrupted.”
Lanjing replied,"I wouldn't dare in front of you."”
Yu Jiaqian said,"Yo, I didn't expect you to learn humility."”
Lan Jing smiled and replied," Humility is one of the greatest virtues of China. However, I believe that I still have this bit of virtue.”
Yu Jiaqian: " Yo, yo, yo, you're starting to act tough."”
A boy interrupted their conversation and said,""Class monitor, it doesn't make much difference whether this class meeting is held or not. Why don't we not make trouble for this class and leave it to ourselves to make arrangements?”
The boy's words swept away the originally lively atmosphere, leaving a very stiff atmosphere for everyone. Many people wanted to rush over and give that boy a good beating. Some of the students started to condemn the boy.
Lan Jing asked the students to be quiet. He looked at the boy with a smile and said,"Hehe, it's not up to me to decide whether to hold a class meeting or not. Why don't the whole class raise their hands to vote? What do you think?"
At this moment, three voices sounded from below the classroom. One was a voice of approval. They thought that it was rare for the form teacher to take out a class time to let us hold a class meeting. It would ease the tense learning atmosphere and also allow us to relax ourselves. At the same time, it would also increase the understanding between students and cultivate the friendship between students.
The other was the voice of opposition. They felt that holding a class meeting would only waste everyone's learning time and would only make everyone miss more opportunities to memorize a few English words. Moreover, it had been a long time since the class meeting, so there was not much meaning in doing so.
The other sound was silence. They neither opposed nor approved of it. He only kept his own opinion and tried to remain silent.
Lan Jing slammed the table and asked the students to be quiet again. Then, he said to the students,""If you don't agree to this class meeting, please raise your hand.”
At this moment, the students looked at each other. There were a few waving hands in the crowd. Lan Jing counted the people with their hands raised and said,""If there are a few people who disagree, then we'll still pursue the idea of a democratic government. The minority obeys the majority, and this class meeting will still be held.”Under his lead, the classroom erupted into a round of applause.
Lan Jing told the class that the theme of the class meeting was very simple. He wrote on the blackboard," What are we busy with?"
He pointed to the words he had written and said loudly," We... are... busy... with... something..." The classroom was silent for a while, and then there was another round of applause.
Lan Jing raised his hands to signal his classmates to keep quiet. "Fellow students, friends, comrades. Our great leader, Chief Mao, has made our Chinese race stand among the world's forests through his lifetime of hard work. Grandpa's reform and opening up has allowed our economy to grow rapidly, and it has also accelerated our pace of entering a well-off family. ** Comrade, graduates are fighting for the rise of China.
They had been busy all their lives, but their busyness was meaningful. Look at us. We are also very busy every day. Have you ever thought about why we are so busy? Do you think there is any meaning in being so busy?”
Some of the students under the podium shook their heads vigorously. Some of them just stared blankly at Lanjing on the podium. Some of them kept their heads down and remained silent. He didn't know if those students who shook their heads meant that they were bored or that they had some other special meaning.
Wang Mengqin stood up from the front row and asked Lan Jing,""Class monitor, do you think it's interesting for us to be so busy every day?”
Lan Jing gestured with one hand for Wang Mengqin to sit down. He looked at Wang Mengqin and said," Thank you very much for asking such a question. As for whether there's any point in us being so busy, I personally think there's a point.”
Tan Junyu raised his hand in agreement." Meaning? What meaning do you think it has? What is his meaning? Can you tell us?"”
Lan Jing saw that Tan Junyu was still smiling and said calmly,""Personally, I think that we are busy now because we are planning for our future lives. At the same time, we are also busy thinking about our own lives.”
Yu Jiaqian raised her hand and said," Thinking about your own life while you're busy. Class monitor, I feel that what you said is very complicated and difficult to understand."”
"Life. It was indeed difficult to understand. Some people spent their entire lives searching for the meaning of life, but many of them returned empty-handed and left the world with regrets.”He said sadly.
"To be honest, I don't know if I can really think about my life while I'm busy.”he added weakly.
"Since so many people have returned empty-handed, why are we still doing useless things here?" asked a girl. What do you think of what I said?"
Some of the students below echoed the girl's words. Lan Jing said calmly,"There are some things that a single person's strength is limited, but the strength of a group cannot be underestimated.”
The girl continued,"What if we choose not to cooperate?”
Lan Jing said lightly," A person is always lonely. If you are willing to be lonely, I have no other choice. I believe that you are not lonely."”The girl remained silent.
Then, he said to the whole class,"The class meeting today is not my personal press conference. I hope that everyone can participate enthusiastically and think carefully about the theme of our class meeting. I hope that through this class meeting, we can let everyone understand why we are so busy and what the meaning is.”
Let's invite Wang Mengqin to share her unique views with us. Let's give her a round of applause. Wang Mengqin stood up from her seat and faced everyone. She said in very gentle Mandarin,"Personally, I feel that I'm busy now just to make my current life more fulfilling. As for whether or not my current busyness was meaningful, I didn't want to guess. I would let time prove it in the future. All I can do is to walk the path under my feet today.”
Lan Jing led the students to clap enthusiastically. Then, he turned to Xiao Hong and said,"What is your opinion? We are all looking forward to hearing your personal opinion."”
Xiao Hong was a little unwilling to answer this question. Yu Jiaqian pushed Xiao Hong, and Xiao Hong was pushed up by Yu Jiaqian. She looked at Lan Jing and said,""To be honest, I haven't seriously considered the theme of today's class meeting. However, I agree with Wang Mengqin's point of view. Follow the path you're on now and let time prove the future!”
As Xiao Hong sat down in the classroom, another round of applause sounded. "Just now, two girls stood up and talked about their busy lives. As men, shouldn't we send a representative to show off our strength? He told them that the boys also had a representative and that they were not weak. There was a male who was willing to stand up.”
Mei Jiao and Duan Li whispered to Jian Chuan,""Why? The first and second place in the class are already standing up? As the third place, why don't you stand up and express your views on behalf of the men?”
Jian Chuan turned around and shushed them. Then, he turned around and said to Jiang Jing,"Your chance has come. Hurry up and take the initiative to show off.”
Jiang Jing said in an indifferent tone,"They can do whatever they want. It's none of my business. If you want to go, you should go. It's not my turn.”
Lan Jing saw that no male students in the classroom took the initiative to raise their hands and stand up to speak on behalf of the male students, so he said to the male students in the class with a pained expression,"It seems like us men aren't doing well today.”
Yu Jiaqian kicked Tan Junyu's stool and said,""Hurry up and speak on behalf of your male compatriots. I have high hopes for you. Get up and say a few words!”
Under the urging and pressure of Wang Mengqin, Xiao Hong, Yu Jiaqian, and many other students, Tan Junyu was finally forced to stand up helplessly and say to all the students,"We can't let our female compatriots laugh at us and say that there's no one among us heroes. So, I will stand up and say a few words on behalf of the men.”
Lan Jing smiled and said to Tan Junyu,"Yes, very good. Please go ahead!"”
Tan Junyu's gaze swept across the entire class. Then, he looked at the few students sitting around him who were pushing him up and said,"Actually, I personally feel that we are so busy every day just so that we can get into a good university and find a good job in the future. We don't want to let down our parents 'expectations and don't want to be disappointed by our teachers. That's why we're so busy."
Lan Jing applauded and said to the whole class,""Thank you, Tan Junyu. Also, who stood up to speak on behalf of the men?”
All the men in the audience lowered their heads. "Jianchuan, get up and say a few words!" Lan Jing said to him restlessly. You've been in our class for so long, but I rarely hear you speak in public. Last time, your exam results were not bad and broke the original balance of our class. I hope you can stand up and say a few words. At the same time, let us students understand you better.”
"Forget it, I'm not qualified," Jian Chuan said. If you're willing to stand up, I'll definitely agree with both of you.”
Jiang Jing said,"Thank you for angering me by looking at me like this." I'll tell you a secret. When I stand in public, I get nervous and even have stage fright.”
Jian Chuan looked at him suspiciously and said,"Ah! You have stage fright. No way!"
Lan Jing looked at Jian Chuan and Jiang Jing whispering below. He looked at them and said,""Jian Chuan, get up and say something! Let us understand you better."
Lan Jing smiled and said softly,"I told you to be more proactive, but you chose to be passive." Now, he had lost his reputation and ambition. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done that."
Jian Chuan stood up and said to him,"Go, go, go."”
When he stood up and was about to say a few words, Lanjing said to him,""Come up and say a few words. Standing on the podium, the students will be able to see you more clearly and increase their understanding of you.”
Jiang Jing immediately stood up to make way for Jian Chuan. Jian Chuan looked at him with a somewhat similar expression as Jing Ke, who was cold and distant. However, when Jian Chuan came out, he accidentally kicked Jiang Jing's foot. Therefore, she screamed in pain, which only made the students in the class laugh. The moment Jian Chuan laid on the ground, he thought,""I'm so embarrassed. I must beat Jiang Jing up later to vent my anger.”
"Are you alright? Are you alright?" A female student comforted her.
Hearing the comforting voice, the anger in Jian Chuan's heart disappeared. He looked over and found that the person who comforted him was Han Siyu. He slowly got up and patted the dust off his body. He quickly said to Han Siyu,"It's fine, it's fine."
When he turned around, he almost tripped on the podium ladder and fell again. At this moment, the audience below the podium burst into laughter again.
Jian Chuan stood on the podium and made an embarrassed expression and gesture to the students. Looking at the gazes of the students below, he was a little nervous at the moment. Because she was a little hesitant when she spoke, she once again made the students below the stage laugh.
Jian Chuan took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He slowly opened his mouth and said,""The moment I stood on the podium and looked at the students below the stage, my heart was beating non-stop. I'm really nervous now. Since I've already embarrassed myself many times on this stage, I decided to embarrass myself again.”At this moment, the students below the stage laughed again. This time, there was a moment of applause.
Jian Chuan calmed down and continued,""Actually, I've been thinking. Last time, I asked the form teacher why she wanted to study. The homeroom teacher said,'I'm studying to know what to do tomorrow.' I think her point of view is very meaningful.”
" Right now, we've been repeating the routine of 'eating, sleeping, and going to the classroom'. After a long time, we feel that this kind of life is too monotonous and even a little boring. I've always used the excuse of not wanting to let down my parents 'expectations and my teacher's vision to make myself live a better life in the future. As time passed, I realized that such an excuse could not convince myself at all.”Jian Chuan continued to speak in a desolate manner.
"I chose to be busy because I hope that by making myself busy, I won't have enough time to think blindly. He hoped to keep himself busy and temporarily forget about his troubles.”He said in a slightly stronger tone.
"I personally think that being busy can make me forget some unhappy or unwilling things. As for what's the point of being busy every day? I didn't dare to think about it, nor did I want to think about it. Rather than spending a lot of time thinking about the future, it was better to spend more time walking the path under my feet.”Jian Chuan walked off the podium silently after he finished speaking.
The classroom was silent for a while, and then there was another round of applause. Mei Jiao kicked Jianchuan's stool and said,""You brat, you made a fool of yourself on purpose just now, right? In order to win the applause of the students, you have sacrificed quite a lot.”
"Go, go, go. Don't use me as bait." Jian Chuan said to Mei Jiao. Why don't you get up and try?"
Mei Jiao said with a very bad expression," Hehe, I think I don't want it. It's enough to see your embarrassing look just now. Hahaha."”
Jian Chuan really wanted to give her a good beating and see if she would dare to talk to him like this in the future. Duan Li seemed to have read Jian Chuan's mind and said to him,"Look at your expression now. Tell me, what do you want to do? Do you want me to help you?"
"Hehe, I don't want it?" Jian Chuan said with some embarrassment.”
Duan Li blinked and said," Are you sure? You really don't want it? Do you know that if you miss this village, there won't be this shop? You have to think carefully."”
Jian Chuan made a grateful expression and said,""I've thought about it. There's really no need.”
"I didn't expect you to be so fun," Duan Li said with a naughty expression.”
Hearing this, Jian Chuan felt strange and asked,""Are you praising me or mocking me? Why do I feel that your words are so strange?”
" But your speech was quite successful," Duan Li said seriously." It made the people below laugh. You're really too talented."
Jiang Jing looked at Jian Chuan and said aggrievedly,"Just now, you went up and tripped over my foot. I didn't do it on purpose." Is your leg alright? Why don't I see if you're broken?”
Jian Chuan said to Jiang Jing,"Go, go, go. Thanks to you, I'm fine."”
Jiang Jing patted her chest and said,"Then I'm relieved."”
Jian Chuan looked at them and asked,"Did you guys get anything special from this class meeting?"”
"Yes," Mei Jiao choked."I found that your reaction was quite fast and you were very calm. If I were you, I would have covered my face and run out of the classroom to cry. I want to learn from you in the future.”
Oh, I was just throwing my junk around. Jian Chuan looked at Mei Jiao and pretended to be calm as he asked," Are you complimenting me or insulting me?"”
Mei Jiao giggled." Of course I'm praising you. You can't tell? You're really a little stupid." Sigh, looks like you can't take praise either.”
" What you said just now was pretty good," Duan Li said to Jian Chuan." I'm proud of you."”They chatted a lot during that class, and they also gained a lot. Many people expressed their opinions. Through this class meeting, we more or less understood the meaning of our busyness.
