Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Wang Xiaohua got up early and discovered Gu Wenqing was already up.

She was brushing her teeth and washing her face.

"Morning! Student Xiao Hua!"

"Morning, Teacher Gu. Did you sleep well last night?"

Gu Wenqing replied with a smile:

"Pretty good, very comfortable! The countryside is great, so quiet, not a bit of noise, unlike in the city where you can still hear the traffic flow at two or three in the morning."

Wang Xiaohua said with a smile:

"Aside from being quiet, the countryside doesn't seem to have many advantages. After we finish brushing our teeth, let's go to town for breakfast, and I'll take you to look around my junior high school on the way!"

Gu Wenqing said with a smile:

"Sure!"

Wang Xiaohua went to brush his teeth too.

Before long, both had finished brushing their teeth. Gu Wenqing applied some sunscreen, didn't put on much makeup, and then they set off together.

Soon they drove into town, found a spot to park the car, and then headed together to the town's middle school.

It was morning now, and the security guard responsible for watching the school gate had already come on duty.

Wang Xiaohua took out his ID card and had the guard uncle register them, and the guard uncle let them in.

Upon learning Wang Xiaohua's name, the guard uncle immediately became enthusiastic:

"Your name is Wang Xiaohua? You wouldn't happen to be that top scorer from the college entrance exam a few years ago, would you?"

Wang Xiaohua was rather embarrassed. So many years had passed, and he was still being recognized under the title of college entrance exam top scorer.

But this was normal too. You have to know, this town hadn't produced a single top scorer other than Wang Xiaohua in who knows how many years.

Anyone who follows education would probably find it hard to forget the name Wang Xiaohua.

"Uncle, that was all many years ago. A hero doesn't boast of past courage; we have to look forward!"

Wang Xiaohua said this.

The guard uncle, however, said:

"Since you're returning to inspect the school, you should give the leaders a heads-up and let them receive you!"

Wang Xiaohua's face was full of cry-laugh:

"That's not necessary! I'm just here to look around."

The guard uncle then said:

"Can we take a photo together? I'll send the photo to my grandson and have him learn from you!"

Wang Xiaohua readily agreed:

"No problem!"

So he took a photo with the guard uncle.

Then he brought Gu Wenqing inside the school.

Actually, ever since Wang Xiaohua entered high school, he had never returned to this middle school again, not even once.

This middle school gave him mostly painful memories.

On one hand, the boarding conditions and food conditions of this middle school were simply too poor.

On the other hand, when Wang Xiaohua was in junior high, he was in a phase where he hadn't yet awakened. In the high school entrance exam that year, he didn't even make the top five of his grade, which was clearly a low point in his student life.

"It's been seven or eight years. I didn't expect this middle school hasn't changed a bit!"

Wang Xiaohua walked forward, looking at the dilapidated dormitory building beside him, and couldn't help but exclaim this sentence.

The reason he had this feeling was not only because the dormitory building hadn't been renovated, but also because a faint urine smell still wafted from inside the dormitory building.

He remembered that when he boarded in junior high, because there were no toilets in the dorm rooms, the entire dormitory building had only one public toilet downstairs. And the school's regulations were very strict: after lights out at night, students were not allowed to go downstairs to use the toilet, otherwise they would be caught and punished by being made to stand. This led to many students who wanted to get up at night to urinate, but didn't want to be caught and punished, either having to bring their own plastic bottles to solve it, or secretly urinating outside in the dormitory corridor.

Thinking back now on this school's management system for boarding students, Wang Xiaohua still found it incomparably absurd.

This also made him deeply realize that some problems cannot be solved just by enforcing rules strictly.

There must be methods, skills, and it must be humane. Otherwise, a dog driven desperate will jump the wall, and a person with a desperate need to urinate will just find any place to relieve themselves.

Wang Xiaohua told Gu Wenqing about this matter, and Gu Wenqing showed a face full of inconceivability.

Her first reaction was:

"If the school doesn't put a toilet in every dorm room, even if not every dorm room, putting a toilet on every floor would work too."

Wang Xiaohua smiled:

"These are all very old dormitory buildings. Renovation wouldn't be easy. Additionally, township middle schools probably don't get much fiscal support."

Gu Wenqing nodded:

"That's true too."

Then she asked again:

"If you were to solve this problem, how would you solve it?"

Wang Xiaohua had already tested back into his hometown as a civil servant. It was very obvious he would definitely encounter similar problems in the future, so Gu Wenqing wanted to test him.

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Strict discipline definitely won't work; Junior High School students are inherently uneven in quality, and if you don't let them go to the Toilet to urinate, they might even urinate in the dormitory. So blocking is not as good as guiding — allow them to go Downstairs to urinate, after all, it's normal for people to have urgent needs. However, if management is too loose, some mischievous students, under the guise of urinating, might run Downstairs eight times in One Night. So, I think having the dormitory staff keep good records is enough: allow going to the Toilet once or twice per night, with additional times allowed for special circumstances, For Example when having diarrhea. Exceeding the limit warrants punishment. This way, those who genuinely need to use the Toilet can Solve the problem, while also Effectively preventing those mischievous students from Frequently going Downstairs under the pretext of using the Toilet and disturbing other classmates' rest."

Gu Wenqing listened to Wang Xiaohua's words and couldn't help but praise:

"You really have the makings of an official; this solution is Indeed not bad!"

Wang Xiaohua just said:

"This is actually something anyone with a bit of ability could think of, but many people want to save trouble and only think of One-Size-Fits-All Abolition. Bottom Line, they fundamentally don't treat boarding students as human beings, but manage them like a bunch of savages."

To tell the truth, Wang Xiaohua had no prejudice against this Junior High School, but he had major Opinions about the Leaders at that time, because that period of boarding at Junior High School caused him extreme maladjustment.

This is also the reason why after he left this Junior High School, he rarely ever came back to visit.

Wang Xiaohua brought Gu Wenqing and strolled around the Junior High School once.

He told Gu Wenqing about some things from his Junior High School life.

To tell the truth, he didn't have much memory of Junior High School anymore.

Rather, the incident where his father smashed the MP3 he bought to learn English well in Junior High School remains vivid in his memory.

During his father's lifetime, he always kept Boasting that it was precisely because he smashed his MP3 back then and was Strict in disciplining him that he finally Tested Into Tsinghua University!

Thinking of this matter now still feels Absurd and ridiculous.

Some people might think no Wang Zhanggen means no Wang Xiaohua, but Wang Xiaohua would never thank Hardship, let alone praise Hardship.

He always felt that Hardship is just Hardship, and cannot bring anything to a person.

Only continuously accumulating small successes, sustained Positive Feedback, is the best Method to Walk Towards success.
