The autumn sky became high and blue, and white clouds floated lightly in the air like feathers, and the warm sunshine was refreshing and charming. This was the first time I came to a big city. I asked many people along the way and took the bus twice before I found this "City Power Supply Bureau Staff Training Center". It is located at the foot of a mountain in the suburbs of the city. At that time, there was no pollution, no haze or pm2.5. The hills were covered with forests, revealing a drunken autumn color.

I walked into the door of the training center with my clothes and toiletries, followed the direction on the signs and came to the registration area of ​​the administrative building. I saw that the door was open, so I walked in.

"Classmate, are you here to report on studying?" A female teacher wearing glasses saw me walking in and stood up in a hurry.

"I... I'm here to participate in the training of the Municipal Industrial Bureau." I saw the female teacher with a kind look on her face, and her nervousness eased.

"Which unit do you belong to?" The female teacher asked with a smile.

"I am from xx Textile Factory, my name is Wu Ping." I put the things in my hand at my feet and took out the letter of introduction from the electrician bag I was carrying.

The female teacher found my name in the registration book: "You are the last classmate to report."

"I'm sorry, I've been delayed." The factory talked about me coming to study in the city, especially the electrician team, and there were even more people who were dissatisfied with me. I was afraid that there would be any problems. I didn't come to the city to report it after the shift.

The female teacher finished registering for me, sent me an admission registration form, and said to me: "You go to the General Affairs Department to pay the food fee and get the book."

I came out to report and came to the General Affairs Department on the second floor. I saw a girl inside paying for the fee and receiving the letter. In order to wait next to me, she had finished the procedures and handed over the registration form.

"Please pay 72 yuan." A gray-haired man said to me.

"Pay money? Don't you want money?" I felt a little sad after hearing his words, and I couldn't help but blurt out.

"Our accommodation and books are provided by the public, but the daily food standard is 1 yuan, the unit subsidy is 60 cents, and I have to get 40 cents, half a year and six months, a total of 72 yuan." The gray-haired man explained to me patiently.

"Oh..." I quickly lowered my head, took out a paper envelope from my electrician's bag, poured out all the money in it, and counted only 62 yuan. This was all the assets I saved and borrowed.

"This..." I was so embarrassed that I was so embarrassed that my face turned red, "I... I don't have enough money, can I owe it first? I will definitely pay it all next month."

"This may not work." The gray-haired man showed a embarrassed look.

"How much difference? I'll lend it to you first." The girl who paid in front of me was about to leave when she heard our conversation and turned around again.

"This...how can this work?" I looked at the beautiful little girl in front of me and waved my hand to refuse.

"What are you afraid of? We are classmates and we have to study together for half a year. You can just give it back to me next month." The little girl's oval face showed sincerity.

"No...than thank you. I will pay you back immediately as soon as I get my salary next month. Otherwise... I will write you an IOU." I was excited for a moment and a little incoherent.

"You are so interesting, what IOU can write?" The little girl couldn't help laughing and burst out laughing.

I paid the fee, came out with the little girl holding the book, and said gratefully to the girl beside me: "Thank you so much, what's your name?"

"I'm Yuan Yuan, I'm from the city power supply bureau. I just heard that your name is Wu Ping. You are from the county, right?" Yuan Yuan blinked his bright big eyes and said to me with a smile.

"Your name is very interesting. I am from the xx County Spinning Factory." From a few short conversations, I felt a lot of affection for this beautiful girl in the village street.

We chatted all the way, and we arrived at the dormitory together before we broke up with each other.

More than a year after leaving school, I sat in the classroom again. Because of the diploma issue, the training class was held very formally, with classes in the afternoon and two self-study sessions in the evening. The more than 50 people in the class were of varying age, all from various agencies in the region and enterprises and institutions in subordinate counties. Those who could come here to study were basically either backstage or had a strong relationship, so most people were quite crazy and arrogant.

I attended this training class, which was specially organized by the Municipal Industrial Bureau in order to implement the spirit of the superiors and cultivate a group of professional talents for subordinate state-owned enterprises and institutions. In addition to the electrical appliance class, there are also professional classes such as machinery, boilers, and construction. The location of our electrical appliance training class is located in the original regional power supply bureau guesthouse, which is now called the Municipal Power Supply Bureau Staff Training Center, which is located here for accommodation, classes, food, drink, and defecation.

Because this training recognizes academic qualifications within the city's industrial bureau system and can be used as capital for the future classification and promotion of units, the struggles between the units are very fierce. Although I cannot be sure, I think Senior Brother Xiao Cai has some truth, that is, the influence of his master and his care for me before leaving will definitely play an important role. To this day, I am still grateful to him. He is indeed affectionate and righteous in this regard, and never denies that I am his only apprentice. If he can treat his emotions like this and treat Yin Hong like this, I may respect him for life.

My classmates were actually Yuan Yuan. When the class teacher was ranking, he tried to arrange a male classmate and a male classmate, and a female classmate and a female classmate. In this way, there was one more man and a woman. Because we were the youngest students in the class, Yuan Yuan was only one year older than me, so the teacher arranged us to sit together.

Yuan Yuan is not very tall, about 1.65 meters, but she has a slim figure and is not round at all. Instead, she is a little thin, especially her skin is fair and delicate, as if she is shattered, not very much like a girl from the north. After I got to know her, she asked her once, and she said that her mother is from the south, no wonder she inherited the charm of a beautiful girl from Jiangnan.

I was very excited when I came to study this time, but I also felt the pressure of life. I had to pay a whole bunch of food. The standard of food was quite high. The public subsidy was mostly paid, and I only had to pay a small half. This was originally a good thing for students, but it made me complain. Another thing was that I studied. I only attended junior high school for one and a half years, so my learning foundation was very poor. Listening to the teacher’s lecture on the first day was like listening to the “Book of Heaven”.

"Yuan Yuan, what does this concept, principle, and formula mean? Do you understand?" I asked my classmates bitterly during the break.

"It's not difficult? They are all physics knowledge from junior high school. Haven't you been to junior high school?" Yuan Yuan looked at me with a puzzled look.

"I have only been in junior high school for a year and a half, and I have gone to the factory to take over." I dare not say that I have not studied hard, and I have been troubled by Wei Yanjing.

"Let's do it..." Yuan Yuan pursed his lips and thought for a moment, "I'll borrow a set of junior high school textbooks for you. You can learn it yourself first. If you don't understand, you can ask the teacher, and I can help you. Only in this way can you keep up with work."

"Do you think it's OK?" I felt a little nervous, and I really didn't have the confidence.

"I think you have a strong self-study ability. As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to understand it. Gradually lay the foundation, so that you will learn it easily." Yuan Yuan's black eyes were full of encouragement.

"Okay, I must work hard." Since I was fond of reading with my master, I really felt that my knowledge was lacking and I really had the motivation to learn. "Do you want to help me more?"

"No problem. My mother used to be a chemistry teacher, and now she is in the teaching and research department of the Regional Education Bureau. If I don't understand, I can ask her, or other teachers in their teaching and research department." Yuan Yuan agreed happily when she saw her words working on me.

The next day, Yuan Yuan brought me a complete set of junior high school textbooks. The papers of this textbook were a little yellow and crisp. Yuan Yuan told me that this was the textbook her mother used to use when she was in school. I looked at the red orchid ink handwriting inside, and a rare sense of solemnity arose. I couldn't help but make up my mind and would definitely live up to her kindness.
