Every evening, after dinner, Ah Hui would hang out at the empty plot of land where her landlord, Zhang Fenglong, lived. Standing at the corner of the east wall, he looked to the east. The east was Shi Ge Zhuang. Under the blue sky, the trees on the east mound were dense. He could not see the village, only a blur. Dacui Village was in the southeast, Yinudian was in the south, and Liu Village, Du Village, Chen Village, and Long Village in the northeast were all covered by trees. There was a large temple on the west side of Liu Village. It was taller and more majestic than the houses in ordinary places. It was very spectacular. When her father was young, he had been to the east of the country. Her uncle Zhang Qingyuan and his family had moved to Tieling. The adults often talked about the east of the country. Looking at Liu Zhuang and the big temple in Liu Zhuang, Ah Hui thought that it was the east of the country. It had a kind of mysterious power. The semi-circular sky and the semi-circular ground in the landlord's house were the world of Ah Hui's youth.
On this day, Ah Hui was strolling along the landlord's path, admiring the natural scenery in the east of the village. Her eldest brother, Ah Ting, and Xia Changhui came over, each carrying a big pole on their shoulders. Ah Hui knew that they had gone to the river to look for crabs.
" Wait for me. I'll go too," Ah Hui said.
" Let's go." They agreed.
Ah Hui took a pole from her brother and followed behind them, walking towards the bridge.
There were two rivers in the east of Xiazhuang Village. The new river was deep and narrow, while the old river was shallow and wide. After the flood, there were many shallow water bay in the Great Hetao. In the river, there were carp, carp, pike, catfish, catfish, white tiaoer, catfish, and other unknown fish. There were tortoises, oily fish, and everything else. Crabs were making nests on the side. At night, the oily fish and crabs wandered in the shallow water. They could be seen by lighting a torch. Interestingly, the oily fish and crabs were either happy or afraid of the light. When the torch shone on them, they would be dumbfounded in the grass or in a slightly sunken pit. It lay motionless, staring at the torch with its round eyes. At this moment, his hands were quick and his eyes were fast. He grabbed it with one hand. Unable to catch it, it slipped away from his hand. It would not run too far, but it stopped, its big round eyes still staring at the torch. If he grabbed again, he would be caught. As for crabs, they were easier to catch.
Under the bridge, there were already many people in the river bend. The torches were lit, like countless lanterns swimming on the water. The water reflected the light of the fire. People chased after him, and the sound of water and laughter spread in the air.
Ah Hui was carrying a bucket of water, and Brother Ah Ting was holding a torch as they walked carefully in the water, trying their best not to make any noise in the water. When he found the target, he quickly reached into the water to grab it. The fish was caught with its tail wagging and placed in the bucket. Ah Hui's bucket was getting heavier and heavier. In front of Ah Hui, under the light of Ah Ting's torch, Ah Hui saw a big fish. Its round eyes were shining with a yellow light, and it looked silly. Ah Hui placed the bucket in the shallow water and suddenly reached out. The fish's body was very smooth, and it flew out of his hand. He grabbed it again, grabbed it, and ran away again.
"Come, I'll catch it." Big Brother Ah Ting walked closer and grabbed it. He said," You have to be ruthless when you grab this thing. If you're not ruthless, it will run away as soon as it jumps."
Aiya, the crab pinched my hand. It hurts too much." Xia Yanfu shouted.
" Don't worry, let me do it." Xia Yanfang hurried over.
" Hey, there's a big fish here. Come quickly," Jun Kuan shouted.
The torch swam in the water, and the figure swayed on the water. A crab was lying in the grass in front of Ah Hui. Ah Hui reached out and grabbed the crab leg. She took it out of the water and was very happy. Just as she was about to put it into the bucket, the crab fell into the water again. Ah Hui was only holding the crab's legs in her hands.
"This is the crab's clone technique," Brother Ting said."You don't have to use too much strength to catch crabs. If you grab it with all your might, it will hurt your hands. If you only grab its legs, the crab will break its legs and escape. This is the crab's unique ability."
That night, the riverbend was very lively. When he came back, the buckets were heavy.
The next morning at school, the boys told stories about the old river bay, and the girls listened with great interest.
However, the newly appointed Teacher Zhang issued a warning. From now on, other than on Saturday, students were not allowed to catch fish and crabs at night. If they caught fish overnight, it would affect their rest, affect their classes, and affect their studies.
This Teacher Zhang was Teacher Zhang Fengyi. After the Spring Festival, the teachers in the entire county were balanced. Teacher Wang Lixian was transferred to Yaowangzhuang Central Primary School, and Zhang Fengyi took over Xiazhuang Primary School. He was a young man in his twenties. He had just joined the teaching profession and was very enthusiastic. From his experience, as a teacher, he had to be strict in teaching his students." A strict teacher produces outstanding students. If you are not strict, you will not be dignified." Therefore, when he took office, he set many rules. One of them was that he was not allowed to catch crabs at night.
" Why aren't you allowed to catch crabs? Why would crabs affect your studies? Teacher Wang Lixian won't care about such things." Ah Hui said to someone behind her back. Some of them had a quick tongue and somehow, Ah Hui's words reached Zhang Fengyi's ears. He was very angry and thought to himself, This kid is really awesome. How dare he not listen to me and go against the teacher? I have to teach him a lesson.
When he found out that Ah Hui had gone to catch crabs at night, he decided to memorize the long text of "Magpies Build a Nest" in the first class tomorrow morning. He had been taking pictures of crabs all night and would definitely not be able to memorize them. If he arranged for two more crabs to be prepared in advance, it would definitely embarrass him. "If you can't, watch how I deal with you!”Zhang Feng Yi thought.
As soon as the bell rang, Zhang Fengyi stood on the podium with her eyes wide open. Put your books on the table today. No one is allowed to take them out."
The students obediently put away their books.
" Xia Junshen," Zhang Fengyi called out sternly." Come to the front."
The classroom was very quiet. Dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at Zhang Fengyi, not knowing what program he was going to direct.
Jun Shen walked up slowly and stood at the side of the podium, not daring to raise his head.
" Recite 'Magpie Makes a Nest,'" Zhang Fengyi ordered, her face scarily stiff.
" The magpie is the most…" Junshen stuttered a few sentences and could not continue. He could only roll his eyes and look at the roof. I can't remember."
Zhang Fengyi looked at Jun Shen and was obviously angry. She said," Stand to the side, this way." He had Junshen stand by the north wall.
" Xia Junkuan," Zhang Fengyi called out.
Jun Kuan came up and recited four or five sentences. He was still missing one sentence when he looked at the roof and rolled his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Fengyi was furious.
I can't carry it all."
"Stand on one side, over there! Zhang Ruiyu."
Zhang Ruiyu was the teacher's nephew. Last night, he had specially told him to memorize this text today so that he could be prepared. He came out and recited more than ten sentences, but he was also stuck. Why? Zhang Fengyi was stunned for a moment before she asked him to stand together with Jun Shen and Jun Kuan.
" Ah Hui," Zhang Fengyi called out. He thought that since they couldn't bear it, Ah Hui definitely couldn't bear it either, and then…
Ah Hui shook her shoulders as she walked to the podium. She stood still, but she didn't dare to raise her eyes.
"Recite what?" Ah Hui said.
" Magpies Build a Nest."
" Magpies are the best at building nests. Many birds learn from him. Hua Mei saw it…"
Ah Hui recited it in one breath, and everyone listened quietly until the end. There wasn't a single word that was wrong, and every sentence was like a stammer, as if she was reciting it from memory. The classroom was silent.
Zhang Fengyi felt strange. When did he start reading? He didn't read much during the day, and at night, he went to take pictures of crabs. He could recite it and was so fluent. It was really strange. However, he was not happy. Looking at the three people standing beside him, Jun Shen, Jun Kuan, and especially Zhang Ruiyu, his nephew, he was furious." You really don't live up to my expectations. I specially told you to memorize, but you can't even memorize it. What are you doing?!"”He was holding a green bamboo pole in his hand and hit Zhang Ruiyu's head twice. Zhang Ruiyu didn't expect her uncle to hit him, so she didn't dodge. Although it didn't hurt, her eyes were filled with tears. Zhang Fengyi saw this and felt that just beating Zhang Ruiyu would embarrass him. She turned around and gave Jun Shen and Jun Kuan a few slaps each, telling them to sit back down. The matter was not over yet. Zhang Fengyi felt that it was not a good thing for her to hit a student, so she wanted to change the matter. It was normal to be beaten up after failing to memorize a book. It was a very normal punishment. Not only the three of them, but everyone who couldn't carry it would be beaten up without exception. So they called out one by one. If they didn't, they would hit two sticks. After the boys were done, they called out to the girls. The first one to come up was Ju Zi. She couldn't carry her on her back, so she stood to the side. Her delicate face was already a little red, and now it was even redder. Then, she called Xia Cuizhi, but she still couldn't recite it and was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to raise her head. Zhang Fengyi thought about it and stopped calling him that. After all, there was a difference between men and women. A girl's face could not stand it! But should he hit them? He deserved to be beaten. The teacher was in a dilemma. What should she do…At this time, Ah Hui seemed to have seen through the trick and said, Hit me, I'll take it for them." Ah Hui walked up, swinging her arms. Zhang Fengyi was a little stunned." It doesn't make sense for someone like you who knows how to memorize to be beaten up. You can't fight anymore."”Therefore, he said," Punishment can't be replaced. Whoever should be punished should be punished. However, Ah Hui's spirit is still good. For Hui's sake, I'll pass on all of them. Juzi, Xia Cuizhi, and Hui all returned to their seats. The classroom regained its peace.
