The Most Simple Wish

The LCD TV is broadcasting the noon news, and the female announcer is making a very professional voice.

According to the Ministry of culture today, the Dai Peacock dance, Dai paper cutting and other traditional cultural projects have been officially included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list

Hearing this, Tao Huizhen lifted her head from the water cup, looked at the TV and said in dismay, "the place I went to is a Dai village. I heard that there are many Dai people living there."

"I know that Mengla County is in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture." Wen Xiu propped up her chin with her arm, looked at the TV and said, "before, there were only world-class cultural heritages. I didn't expect that China would start to move. It's very good. How many projects need to be protected in China for 5000 years? It really can't disappear any more."

Since China joined the Convention on the protection of world cultural and natural heritage in 1985, China has gradually established a system for the protection of national, provincial, municipal and county-level intangible cultural heritage while applying for world cultural heritage. Today, this may be the fruit of efforts.

Wenxiu has studied abroad for three years, worked in Australia for one year, and lived abroad. She has a different perspective on Chinese traditional culture from others. It is the so-called view of Chinese traditional culture from the perspective of the world.

She believes that traditional culture is a priceless treasure and wealth of China, which contains profound and immortal, and it is the accumulation of these colorful traditional culture that makes today's China look endless and has a long history.

"I find you are so patriotic now." Tao Huizhen said with a smile.

"If you don't go abroad, you don't know the good of your motherland. When you go to Dai village, you will know the warmth of your hometown." Wenxiu pick pick eyebrows, to the tone of the past said.

When the dumplings are served, even the utensils used to hold them are more fashionable than they were many years ago. Everything has changed and people's taste has changed, Wen Xiu thinks. It is gratifying that the flavor of dumplings has not changed much, at least in the new flavor, there is still a trace of familiar taste, which makes Wenxiu think of the dumplings eaten at the new year's Eve dinner.

Tao Huizhen sprinkled a little vinegar on the snack dish and stirred it with chopsticks: "I've been thinking about supporting education for a year, and finally I've taken the first step for it. Finally I want to get what I want."

"Are you very excited?" Wen Xiu asked.

"What's exciting? I think about these things every day. When I lie in bed at night, I think that when I stand on the mountain and the children surround me and call my teacher, I can always dream of the clear and pure eyes of the children, as if they have done something wrong. I've thought about it too much. I've thought about every detail more than ten times, so I'm not excited about it. " Tao Huizhen said: "it was impossible for me to get excited when I went to be a supporting teacher, but it could only make me feel at ease."

Going to the mountain village to support education is not only boring. Tao Huizhen and the children there come from different worlds and different social structures. It may not be easy to pass on her ideas and knowledge to them. It's more difficult than you think.

There are many unforeseen things there. Even if she plans for the worst, Tao Huizhen doesn't think there must be reality. It's even worse. Both physical and psychological pressure will make her breathless. But it's just like dancing. It's easy to lose your physical strength. If you don't stick to it until the next second, you never know how much you can do.

"In that case, you have a dream of being a teacher of supporting education. No matter what, you can only give yourself an account if you are doing it, can you?" Wenxiu took a bite of the dumpling dipped in mashed garlic and chewed it.

"No. Tao Huizhen put down her chopsticks and looked at Wen Xiu seriously. She said, "I tell you, many people take supporting education as an experience. When they go to remote mountainous areas, they spend a few weeks or at most a few months with their children, and then they come back. In this limited time, They may put most of their mind on exploring the environment of remote areas, basic necessities of life, and they may forget what they went there for. Shouldn't we just pick up the book? Children urgently need to learn knowledge.... "

"What you said is reasonable, but there are also extreme places. Some college students don't have much time to do supporting teaching. They also go there with enthusiasm. They thought they could teach more things to their children, but in the end, because the mountain environment is too hard, everything is different from what they want. Naturally, they have to concentrate on how to overcome the difficulties. After all, they have to overcome the difficulties, To stay Wen Xiu gracefully holds her sharp jaw.

"But Tao Huizhen's eyes became big and bright: "time is limited. The children in the mountain village are growing up day by day. They go to support education. When they come back, they will show off to the people around them and say - well, it's a good experience. The children in the mountain are very simple and the people are very kind - obviously they don't pay attention to teaching, which makes me feel that they didn't help the children in the mountain, But to go there and let the children give them some kind of satisfaction! "

"I know you're not like that, Huizhen. Do you want to go the usual way then? "

Tao Huizhen's eyes unconsciously moved away from Wen Xiu's face, with a trace of evasion. She did not seem to have a very sure answer, small face, at this time full of a trace of unwilling. After a long silence, she gazed at the passers-by outside the window and said, "what can I do? I can only put myself aside and plunge into education. I will recognize a way to teach the children in the mountain village. The more, the better. I don't want anything else... "

Wenxiu is silent, thinking that this is why her parents can't persuade her, and she can't stop her.

"The worse the environment is and the more remote the place is, the more difficult it is to keep up with the teaching. When the teaching period is over, the children will not be taught any more, and the previous courses will soon be wasted. If you are lucky, new teaching methods will come. Different teaching styles and different cultural levels will teach those children again, which will lead to the incoherence of what they learn, It's like pieces that can't be pieced together. I'm not lucky. I haven't been able to come here for a long time. Children have a strong sense of dependence. When the support teachers come and go, they can't accept it. After all, they are familiar with the support teachers. If we can find a way to overcome these problems, it's a blessing for the children in the mountain village. " Tao Huizhen face is full of worry, a pair of thin eyebrows crowded together.

As for the current situation of supporting education and students in mountain villages, Tao Huizhen got it through inquiry and data search. When she learned about the current situation of these problems, she was also very helpless, which became the catalyst for her final decision to become a supporting teacher.

Wenxiu looks at the back of her hand and says nothing. She can't understand Tao Huizhen's persistence. Does she like children too much or believe in the power of knowledge too much? The motivation for her to do so is that she sees the children in the mountain village who have no chance to study. Is it so simple?

In the summer of 2001, Wenxiu danced with Tao Huizhen in the school dance room. Tao Huizhen sweated a lot and finally fainted due to lack of blood supply to her brain. Wenxiu called an ambulance and sent Tao Huizhen to the hospital. On the way, Tao Huizhen woke up. That night, Wenxiu saw Tao Huizhen in the dance studio practicing dance desperately, her red cheeks steaming hot.

Wenxiu raised her mouth slightly. At that time, Tao Huizhen didn't know that she would be admitted to the dance academy, and it was impossible to know that she would become an excellent dancer, but she made unremitting efforts. She chose to do everything first and then did it. Looking back at that time, it overlapped with Tao Huizhen now.

"I don't want it to be more than four years before we meet again." Wenxiu's eyes are a little red. She saw that Tao Huizhen had eaten a plate of dumplings.

"I'll come back to see you sometime, even if I go to Australia, but I'll stay there as long as possible to avoid what I just said." Tao Huizhen turned around and took out two pieces of 50 yuan from a small purse and handed them to the waiter of the dumpling restaurant to check out.

Wenxiu also took the windbreaker and put it on at this time. As she put it on, she thought that wherever Tao Huizhen went, it was like a heater. The children in Dashan would be more dependent on Tao Huizhen than other teachers. She was worried that for too long, the children in Dashan would be inseparable from her.

Two people out of Laobian dumpling restaurant, more than noon in the Middle Street Pedestrian Street, few people. Wen Xiu pursed her lips tightly and looked sideways at the passers-by passing by. After four years of not returning home, people's dressing style was changing quietly.

Turning around the corner of Henglong square, the Imperial City under construction, Wen Xiu asked Tao Huizhen that question. Tao Huizhen said that if all the students she teaches can't do without her, it's a happy thing.
