A naturally deformed child can’t walk upright and crawl on the ground with his knees and hands. The child has been afraid of loneliness since childhood and has always been eager to go to school like other children. He went to school at the age of 8, climbed and climbed, and it took him 10 years to "climb" to the sixth grade of primary school. For healthy children, it only takes six or seven years.
This child struggling with fate is Song Xiaolong, a student in Class 6 (2) of Gongercun Primary School in Zhengzhou City.
school life
The eyes of his new classmates embarrassed him.
On August 31st, just a few days after the start of primary and secondary schools in Zhengzhou, a banner with the words "Welcome New Students" was hung at the gate of Gongercun Primary School in Zhengzhou. Every autumn at this time, it is the most embarrassing time for Song Xiaolong. The school welcomes a group of new students. When they see him, they all chase him curiously.
On the morning of the first class, the bell rang, and Song Xiaolong had to go to the toilet. When he crawled on the campus, the doll who had just entered the first grade of primary school saw such a "freak"-hunched over the front of the chicken chest, unable to walk upright, only crawling, and they all chased after him.
Song Xiaolong was embarrassed. He climbed faster and faster, but the students behind him gathered more and more … It was not until his classmates came forward to "escort" that Song Xiaolong got out of trouble.
"But over time, they won’t be naughty. Sometimes, when they see me climbing stairs, they will give me a hand. " Song Xiaolong said that he can understand the students’ mentality, but there is always some fear and tension when facing it.
In less than two minutes, the third floor climbed down the first floor.
At 5: 00 pm on August 31, the music of Zhengzhou Gongercun Primary School sounded. The students packed their schoolbags and ran out of the classroom one after another, queuing down the stairs to go home.
Because Song Xiaolong is too small and hunchbacked, he has no strength to carry his schoolbag. His schoolbag is carried by a "special person". After the teacher gave the order to start downstairs, the students rushed downstairs. Song Xiaolong was no less than everyone’s downstairs speed. He was like a rabbit, shuttling at the students’ feet, jumping across the stairs, and in less than two minutes, he climbed from the third floor to the first floor.
A child’s parents saw Song Xiaolong and said anxiously, "Slow down, son, or your classmates will step on you."
Growing experience
Mother suspected that she caught a cold and got the wrong needle when she was pregnant.
Song Xiaolong’s mother, Yang Linfang, said that the reason why Xiaolong is a deformed child may be related to her having a cold when she was pregnant.
She was still living in her hometown in Huangchuan, Xinyang, and her husband Song Shijun was working in Beijing. When she was pregnant for more than two months, she caught a cold and went to the village health clinic to see a doctor. The doctor gave her an injection. When she got home, she felt numb in her right leg, lost consciousness and could hardly walk. When my legs move, my stomach hurts, and that kind of pain is like my intestines being caught.
When I went to the hospital for examination, the doctor said that the child’s fetal position was not correct.
When Xiaolong was born, his body was straight, but the umbilical cord was tightly wrapped around his legs, so he couldn’t break it. A rural female doctor was invited. She cut the umbilical cord with scissors and the child’s legs were separated.
Then, Yang Linfang passed out, and Xiaolong cried for four days and four nights. Since then, Yang Linfang has been weak due to malnutrition and has fallen ill. Xiaolong grew up slowly, his back was hunched and his legs could not stretch straight.
When I was a child, no children played.
Song Xiaolong is the boss at home. He also has a younger brother, two years younger than him. He is 16 years old and is in high school. For the healthy younger brother, Song Xiaolong said that he did not envy him. "If I didn’t delay going to school, I am now in high school."
When I was a child, Song Xiaolong didn’t feel special. When my brother just learned to walk, my mother bought him a pair of sports shoes. At night, when my brother lifted his foot, lights flashed under his feet. He wanted to wear it, too, crying for his mother to buy another pair, but her mother bought a pair for him. However, his feet are deformed, and his feet are lifted up and can’t touch the ground. No matter how he twists, the lights on his sneakers just won’t shine.
At that time, he had just turned six. He said that this incident made him understand a lot. He understood why children didn’t like to play with him, no one talked to him, and he climbed alone at home every day …
At the age of 8, I went to school with my schoolbag on my back.
"I want to go to school, please take me to school." Song Xiaolong grew up to 8 years old. Every time he saw a child with a schoolbag at the door passing by, he begged his mother.
Yang Linfang didn’t go to school and didn’t know a single word, so she suffered a lot. When I heard Xiaolong clamoring for school, I sent him to preschool. Two years later, Song Xiaolong went to the first grade in his hometown. But when I was in the second grade, the school made an excuse not to let Xiaolong upgrade. Song Xiaolong went to grade one after another.
When Song Xiaolong was 12 years old, his father Song Shijun returned to Henan from Beijing to work, settled down in Zhengzhou, and bought a house with a loan. Song Xiaolong’s family moved to Zhengzhou to live.
In order to continue Xiaolong’s studies, Yang Linfang went to several nearby schools. When she arrived at Gongercun Primary School in Zhengzhou City, a 50-year-old headmistress learned about Song Xiaolong’s situation and said the words "physically disabled and determined" and agreed to accept Song Xiaolong to study in this school.
Since then, a scooter boy has appeared on the campus of the school. He crawled on his way to school, rain or shine.
Classmate impression
He is a "gentleman" and hardworking boy.
From grade one to grade six, Jeikiy and Song Xiaolong are in the same class. In her impression, Song Xiaolong is a "gentleman" than other boys in the class. When it comes to cleaning, other boys are naughty and don’t sweep the floor, or they run away after hastily sweeping. Only Song Xiaolong never picks and chooses, and leaves to sweep the floor almost every day, taking the most jobs and leaving the last, so everyone respects him.
"Song Xiaolong is also very humorous and knows a lot of scientific knowledge." Many students in Class 6 (2) talked noisily about Song Xiaolong around the reporter.
Li Ziyun, an 11-year-old child, said that every time the teacher asked questions in class, Song Xiaolong answered them very abstruse, and we didn’t know much of what he said. Every year on New Year’s Day and Teacher’s Day, a literary evening is held, and Song Xiaolong often writes and performs some sketches to participate. After he made up the plot, he invited some students to rehearse together.
Teacher’s opinion
The class teacher said that Xiaolong moved him.
He qing became the head teacher of Song Xiaolong for more than two years. Before teaching him, he qing knew that there was such a strong child in the school.
Since the fourth grade, he qing has been the head teacher of Song Xiaolong. Song Xiaolong’s position is also fixed in the third row of the class. Song Xiaolong is short. He was going to put him in the first row, but Song Xiaolong was "embarrassed" and chose the third row.
In Teacher He’s view, Song Xiaolong is optimistic and mingles with his classmates. In a Chinese class, he saw Song Xiaolong holding a "dictionary" to look up words. The "dictionary" was very strange. He casually opened it and saw the crooked font on it. It turned out that this was the "dictionary" summarized by Song Xiaolong himself.
He qing said, Song Xiaolong’s academic performance has been kept in the middle and upper class. Every time I see him, he is smiling. If I were you, I don’t think I am as strong and optimistic as him. "Xiaolong always touched me. Sometimes, when I encounter setbacks, I will think of him. "
Dialogue with Song Xiaolong
I don’t envy my classmates around me.
Reporter: What is your ideal?
Song Xiaolong: In the past, I thought I would be a scientist or something in the future, but this idea was too simple. I just want to learn more now, and I can help my father do some business in the future. It is enough to have a bowl of rice to eat.
Reporter: Can you keep up with the teacher’s lecture?
Song Xiaolong: Almost, everyone can understand. But I still feel that my IQ is not high enough.
Reporter: Looking at the lively classmates around you, have you ever envied them?
Song Xiaolong: I can’t talk about envy. I’m used to climbing every day, and I can’t feel the feeling of a normal person. Sometimes, others carry me on my back, and I say why it’s so high, and I feel very scared. (Qi Yaqiong)
