But Chang Xia can't understand why time is not enough. Isn't Locke a teacher? In her impression, the teacher's work seems very easy, and there are holidays.
When Chang Xia raised this question, Locke replied: "it's not easy to be a teacher in M country. I'm a head teacher. We should take care of all the children's affairs, in addition to their learning and living conditions."
Although he didn't say much, Chang Xia seemed to be able to understand what he said. When Chang Xia moved to New Orleans, he found that the population here was polarized, that is, there were more rich people and more poor people.
It can also be reflected in schools that poor children can't go to school. Although the country has exempted the burden of tuition fees, they still lack many things to go to school, such as books, clothes and stationery. In addition, some families have backward ideas and feel that it's better to let their children go to school than to let them work.
I think Locke's lack of time should be that he put his work on the power of life and didn't take into account his private life.
"But... Mr. Locke is definitely a good teacher."
"Why." Locke doesn't understand why Chang Xia has such a view. After all, she hasn't seen her own work.
Chang Xia said: "this is intuition. You are a gentle person. You can see it from many places."
Now in the process of walking on the road, Locke will let Chang Xia walk on the inside of the street. He himself walks on the outside. It can be seen that he is very gentlemanly to ladies. This gentlemanly demeanor is engraved in his bones, not disguised. Secondly, he has a good economic condition. When he just came to xikenwen, Bilis also talked with Chang Xia about Locke's family situation. It is said that he is a second-generation rich man who graduated from MIT and majored in finance. According to the practice of ordinary people, he usually goes to work on Wall Street, the most influential economic center in M country, and then makes a lot of money.
Locke is different from others. He does not make use of knowledge to make money, nor does he show his identity as a rich second generation. He comes to work in the small city of New Orleans in a low profile, quietly helping those poor students.
From all aspects, we can conclude that Locke is a good man. If we want to use more accurate words, we should be a kind man.
Such a man is rare, Chang Xia now looking at him with a look of admiration.
"Mr. Locke, what are your plans in the future, to be a teacher all the time?"
"No, I want to... I want to be the principal."
"To be a headmaster?"
"Yes, so that more students can study. In fact, this plan is being implemented now. I have discussed with the principal of our city. When he retires next year, I will manage the school instead of him. At that time, the scale of the school will be expanded so that more students can have reading."
When he talked about it, he seemed energetic, and his eyes were full of confidence and yearning for the future.
This kind of man is really charming. Chang Xia has never seen that kind of charm. It's different from the heirs of the four families she saw in a city. They have the charm of business leaders. They are cruel but very dignified. And Locke is like a warm sunshine, giving warmth and illuminating other people's lives.
In fact, Chang Xia prefers a man like Locke, who is willing to sacrifice himself and others in silence.
Of course, Chang Xia's liking is based on admiration. He doesn't have too many ideas. At this time, the two of them also come to the playground in parallel. This is the largest amusement center in xikenwen City, attracting more than one million people to visit here every year. The entertainment facilities here include roller coaster, Ferris wheel and coffee revolving cup.
Chang Xia had heard about this place when she came to New Orleans. She wanted to come here all the time. Unfortunately, her parents couldn't accompany her because of her health. So this time she went out with her friends. She chose to visit here.
It's a pity that friends such as Bilis and wenaynell can't come. On the contrary, Locke, whom we met on the first day today, followed us.
After buying tickets and entering the playground, Chang Xia asked, "Mr. Locke, what do you like to play?"
"And you, Miss Xia?"
"I love roller coasters." Chang Xia likes exciting and Thrilling Games. Roller coaster is one of his hobbies. The feeling of reversing the world and beating heart is especially good.
In this regard, Locke and Chang Xia reached the same consensus, he also said: "I like the roller coaster, let's go together."
The roller coaster is 300 meters long. When it comes down, it's very exciting and screams. When Chang Xia sits ten miles away, he can see the train on the rail pass quickly, and the people sitting on it wave their arms and make a shrill scream.
Although it seems a terrible activity, people on the roller coaster enjoy it. On the platform, Chang Xia can see every tourist's smile. They are all relishing the feeling of their bodies vacating. Several tourists have proposed to ride again.
Now Chang Xia and Locke are also sitting on the roller coaster, wearing safety devices. The roller coaster starts and speeds up gradually, accompanied by the rapid passing of the air and continuous screams. The train was running fast, faster and faster, and finally reached the peak. Everyone screamed like crazy, and the sound of joy infected each other. The whole roller coaster was very excited.
Circle by circle, the body was thrown away, like a free falling object, out of the shackles of gravity, at that moment, all the troubles are like discharged from the body, incarnated into a free flying bird, unrestrained, there are only two words in the head, happy! After the roller coaster, Chang Xia and Locke also played the carousel, pirate ship, water rafting, all kinds of exciting and Thrilling Games. Locke is very similar to Chang Xia in this aspect. He really likes this exciting game and enjoys it. Finally, they went to the haunted house. The feelings are gradually cultivated. At first, they were strangers. Now they are getting closer and closer. They have become real good friends. In the process of the game, two people talk and laugh, it is very happy, there is no estrangement. The sky is getting dark. The sun is setting in the evening. It's almost time to go back. According to the itinerary, Chang Xia is going to go to xikenwen railway station around six o'clock to meet with Bilis and them, and then we will go back to New Orleans together. Leaving the playground and walking in the middle of the road, Locke is still savoring the memory of the playground“ Miss Xia, it's really a good experience for me. I had a good time today. "“ I had a good time today, too. " Chang Xia is still relaxed for the first time after coming to m country. His heart is filled with joy and relaxed.
