The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

All the things Gao Lingling sent were good things, and Zhang Lanru used them all on Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan has never eaten anything good since she was a child. Although she has grown up now, she is still very thin.

This was all because she did not get enough nutrition when she was growing. Zhang Lanru felt sorry for Zhang Yan, so she used all the things sent to her on Zhang Yan.

The effect is very obvious. Zhang Yan grew three centimeters in just a few months and looks much taller than before.

Tian Tian listened to Zhang Yan talking about her experiences at school and found it quite interesting.

Although now everyone says that technical secondary schools are places where a group of rural people go, and their quality varies, everyone who can get into a technical secondary school is very good. Now the score line for technical secondary schools is even higher than that of key high schools.

It’s just that their family background is not as good as those of the people in the city, but their quality is no worse than those of the people in the city.

"Then can you please tell us which school you would like to teach in?" People like Zhang Yan become elementary school teachers right after graduation.

Tian Tian thinks this job is pretty good, it is a real iron rice bowl, especially in the current wave of layoffs.

"I want to go back to our brigade's primary school to teach, so that I can be closer to my grandma and my mom, and I can take care of them nearby." Zhang Yan said.

"It's pretty good." Tian Tian said.

"Although there are so many factories closing down and workers being laid off, schools are actually relatively stable places. In the future, people will pay more and more attention to education, and teachers will become more and more popular." Tian Tian said, "By the way, what did you study in secondary school? Will you teach Chinese or mathematics after graduation?"

Zhang Yan felt a little embarrassed when she heard what Tian Tian said, and said awkwardly: "I teach English."

Zhang Yan was really embarrassed to say this in front of her high school English teacher who graduated from a serious university.

"There are still people teaching English in technical secondary schools?" Tian Tian asked with some surprise.

It’s not that Tian Tian looks down on technical secondary schools, but there is indeed a shortage of English teachers nowadays, especially good teachers who are proficient in English. After all, it has been so many years and English has been stagnant for so many years.

Even though it is taught in universities and high schools, what they teach are actually just the basics. These English teachers are extremely popular and are either employed as university teachers or high school teachers.

There are very few English teachers in technical secondary schools, mainly because most of the students in technical secondary schools study technical skills, and the students go directly to affiliated factories. I have never seen any student graduating from an English major go to a technical secondary school.

Zhang Yan felt even more embarrassed after hearing this and said, "Our teacher is a foreign language major who graduated from a junior college."

In fact, if it weren't for Tian Tian, ​​Zhang Yan would not have chosen the English major. When she asked Tian Tian for tutoring before, Tian Tian taught her a lot of English. Although it was not a full-time lesson, she would just teach her a little bit occasionally when she was tired of studying.

But this also made Zhang Yan's foundation much better than other students in their class. The teachers knew that Zhang Yan had some basic English skills better than other students and was quite fluent, so they asked her if she wanted to join the English class.

Zhang Yan had heard from others that there was a bright future for English-speaking people, so she agreed immediately.

She actually wanted to earn some money for her mother and grandmother!

"That's great. You have to study English well. I have some tapes at home that I used when I was in school. If you don't mind, you can take them and use them." Tian Tian said.

"Having a good English teacher is important, but what is more important is daily accumulation. Listening to English tapes can also be very beneficial to you."

Zhang Yan nodded after hearing this and said, "Thank you, Sister Tian Tian."

She knew how valuable English tapes were. At least their school didn't have a single English tape right now, so Zhang Yan was still very grateful to Tian Tian.

But they didn't chat for long. When they got to the mountain and saw mushrooms everywhere, they became excited instantly and scattered and started picking mushrooms.

Anan didn't complain of being tired while going up the mountain, and insisted on climbing up with her own legs.

Seeing Tian Tian squatting aside picking mushrooms, she went over to join in the fun.

While picking mushrooms, Tian Tian had to pay attention to see if An An had picked any poisonous mushrooms. However, there were relatively few poisonous mushrooms here at this time, because you could see that all the mushrooms blooming under the trees were small hazel mushrooms.

Occasionally, you can see a few layers of yellow mud balls in the middle of the hazel mushrooms. These two types are Tian Tian’s favorite mushrooms.

Tian Tian was putting things into the basket while also putting things into her own space.

The container she brought had limited capacity. If she wanted to bring more back, she could only put them in the space. It was a rare opportunity to go up the mountain, so Tian Tian naturally wanted to take as much as she could. Everyone who went up the mountain to pick mushrooms was very greedy.

On rainy days, many other people would come to pick mushrooms. Sometimes, Tian Tian would finally find a layer of hazel mushrooms and run over there, but when she got closer, she would see another group of people already picking them.

She had no choice but to run to another place, but by walking and stopping like this, Tian Tian did pick a lot of mushrooms. It was not until An An could no longer walk and got angry with Tian Tian that Tian Tian stood up reluctantly and took An An down the mountain.

An An still wanted Tian Tian to hold her, but Tian Tian really couldn't hold An An anymore. She seldom held An An in her arms since she was a child, because Gu Zhao was usually by her side at this time. Every time she held An An, she either held her while sitting or lying down, which didn't require her to exert too much effort.

This also meant that Tian Tian's strength did not increase as An An grew up.

Fortunately, although An An was not happy, he did not cry or make a fuss. He pushed Tian Tian down the mountain step by step.

They had walked very deep into the mountain to pick mushrooms today, and the way down the mountain was also quite long. An An's little face was visibly getting more and more depressed, and finally, with tears in his eyes and a pursed mouth, he looked at Tian Tian with an accusing look on his face.

Tian Tian looked guilty and tried to pick up An An, then held the soil frame he brought with him in one hand.

But An An was really too heavy, which was a little beyond Tian Tian's expectations.

Tian Tian couldn't hold her with one hand. An An was obviously aware of this situation. She didn't feel comfortable at all when Tian Tian held her with one arm. She felt even more aggrieved in her heart. She pursed her lips, got off Tian Tian's body, and walked down the mountain holding Tian Tian's clothes.

When Tian Tian saw An An like this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
