Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s-Chapter 62 - Visiting the Sick in Town
62: Chapter 62 Visiting the Sick in Town
62 -62 Visiting the Sick in Town
An Family’s days finally quieted down.
After the Chinese New Year, An Shuchao spent his days working in the fields and his nights at the brick kiln, doing heavy labor to earn money and ensure the family could live normally.
An Hao returned to school to study, with the college entrance exam rapidly approaching.
The math teacher, Wei Suxia, fell ill and was sent to the city hospital overnight.
She ended up staying for ten days.
Now, it was math class again, Teacher Wei hadn’t come back, and the students in the class couldn’t sit still and started discussing it.
“What do you think Teacher Wei is sick with?”
“I heard it’s a stomach problem, they removed a third of her stomach.”
“Now that Teacher Wei is ill at such a critical time, with the exam just a few months away, my math is so poor.
I was counting on Teacher Wei to give me some extra lessons!”
“Teacher Wei is in poor health because of overwork.”
Song Yueqin was also not good at math.
Teacher Wei, like her mother, was a city person who had stayed in the countryside after being sent down during the Cultural Revolution.
Therefore, her mother used to visit Teacher Wei quite often, just to ask her to give Song Yueqin some extra tutoring.
She heard from someone yesterday that after undergoing surgery, it would take a month or two to recover.
If that were the case, how could she possibly take the college exam?
Her mother had such great hopes for her!
Thinking of this, Song Yueqin tapped on the desk, and when the class quieted down, she stood up and called out to Shen Zhihua, who was engrossed in solving problems: “Class president, Teacher Wei has been sick for so long, and as her students, shouldn’t we go visit her?”
And incidentally find out when exactly she can come back.
If she won’t be back soon, she could ask her mother to find someone more capable.
Or she might as well stay at her grandmother’s house in the city to review.
If she had any problems, she could go directly to the hospital to find Teacher Wei.
When Shen Zhihua heard Song Yueqin calling him, he put down his pen and said, “I’ve asked the class teacher about it, and she doesn’t recommend that we visit Teacher Wei right now.
She said Teacher Wei needs to rest quietly for a while.”
“Then who is going to teach me?” The real concern for Song Yueqin was this.
“Yeah, class president!”
“Class president, the college entrance exam is getting close, we can’t do without a teacher, right?”
Song Yueqin’s remark sparked a chorus of comments from the entire class.
“If it’s not okay, I’ll go and discuss it with the class teacher right now,” Shen Zhihua said as he stood up, ready to go.
The class teacher, Mr.
Mu, happened to walk in briskly, heard the buzzing discussions in the class, and quickly said, “I understand the feelings of the students, and so does the school.
Since everyone wants to visit Teacher Wei, let’s send a few representatives to see her.”
“That would be great,” Song Yueqin said happily, “Mr.
Mu, I’ll sign up first!”

“Okay, you’re one of them,” Mr.
Mu agreed readily, “Song Yueqin, your grandmother lives in the city, and you’ve been there before, so you know the way.
You can lead the way.
I was planning to go, but as you all know, my family circumstances require me to be home.”
“We all know, Mr.
Mu, the class officers can go.
We’ll report back to you afterward!” Shen Zhihua took the initiative and undertook the task.
“That’s settled, then!” Mr.
Mu was reassured, knowing Shen Zhihua was young but reliable in getting things done, “Also, Teacher Wei sent a letter saying that during her hospitalization she discovered a good resource book that a student in the same ward had, which can be purchased at Xinhua Bookstore.
Our class has forty people; when you four class officers go, buy the books for everyone too!”
