In the yard of "Qingquan Middle School" where I used to work, there is a sweet well, and the well water is warm in winter and cool in summer. My colleagues and I have to rely on it for washing clothes and cooking. At that time, the door of our dormitory was facing the cement well platform, only a few steps away. I think the naming of this school has something to do with this well?
When I just moved to school, I noticed a deep and quiet well that seemed to have hidden secrets. Standing by the well platform, looking down, the bright circle of sky light shook my head, very clear, like a mirror. The life in rural schools is quiet and simple, with a nourishing day of well water, and the mood is simple and vivid.
期号期号 is also a kind of pastoral lifestyle. There are several urban teachers who have just arrived in the countryside to dig wells and have made some jokes. For example, when Mr. Xiao Peng fetches water, the bucket is like a gourd, always floating on the water surface and refuses to sink. Let him pull and shake the rope and swing left and right, it still doesn't work. It caused the students to watch and laugh, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
Later, under my guidance, he slowly took the trick. Gently turn the bucket sideways, waiting for it to enter water bit by bit. Once the water is increased, the bucket will naturally sink and the water will be filled. Or, raise the bucket, shake your wrist, turn the mouth of the bucket downward, and fill it with water all at once. Of course, this can only be done after proficient in the techniques. Later, he was more experienced in digging the well water. He shook his wrist and paused for a while. He waited for the bucket to hang down and pulled it down a few times, then took out a bucket of well water.
In winter, we also use ready-made well water to wash our clothes without freezing our hands at all. A bucket of well water was poured into the basin with a "wow" look, it was smooth and gentle. The warm well water slides between your fingers, which feels really unique and comfortable. In summer, the poisonous sun is dry, and the iron plates on the well cover are hot and hot, but the well water is clear and sweet, like a natural freezer.
students drank the water they had been beaten into their stomachs, then wiped their mouths and smiled happily. I packed the watermelon I bought with a net bag and hung it in the well with a rope, and tied the rope to the tree next to the well. When I finished my whole day's work, I pulled the watermelon up in the evening and slashed it.
h, the bright red melon flesh is as crystal clear as if soaked in a layer of frost. Take a bite and it will make your heart cool. I share with everyone that everyone praises the good watermelon, and I don’t forget to praise the good water of the well. It’s really like washing clothes in winter and eating melons in summer is so refreshing. This cool and pure well water brings us moisturizing and happiness, natural and friendly.
In addition to teaching, my colleagues and I went outside the campus to enjoy the rural style and taste the wonderful things of nature. When I returned to campus, the quiet well water gave me a happy enjoyment, whether I took a bath or drank, and I was comfortable and happy.
Now, I am in a city full of tall buildings, I occasionally think of that well. The sweet well water has nourished my youth and nourished my soul. I wish my soul can always be as fresh and pure as well as well.
