Chapter 66: Jingbian (II)

The next morning, the educated youths were so tired that they couldn't get up on the kang, and the staff of the Educated Youth Office had no choice but to go to Director Ma.

The villagers in the village who came to pick up the educated youth have already come, and some of them have to rush in the middle of the night when they are far away, and they are still asleep.

The villagers are all squatting in the courtyard, smoking cigarettes and pots, while discussing, this BJ's baby is not the same to sleep, and some are worried, these educated youths who can't pick their shoulders and can't lift their hands, what can they do in the countryside, isn't it to increase the burden on everyone.

When Director Ma strode in, he also heard the discussion of the villagers, but the footsteps did not stop, these discussions have already existed, mainly because the production in northern Shaanxi is limited, and the rations of each village are counted, and now that there are more people out of thin air, the food will definitely not be enough to eat.

However, it is the policy of the central authorities for young intellectuals to go to the rural areas to receive re-education from the poor and middle peasants, and the villagers must implement it if they understand it, and if they do not understand it, they must implement it. Director Ma had called the party secretaries of each village to the county for many meetings to convey the spirit of the central government, just to alleviate the villagers' resistance to the educated youth.

Unexpectedly, if they were not careful, the educated youths poked a basket again. Yesterday I said okay, get up at nine o'clock, gather at ten o'clock for breakfast, and now it's eleven o'clock, these educated youths haven't gotten up yet, so that the villagers don't say big jokes, and when they go back to the village, they must be lazy to do it.

Director Ma kicked the door in a huff, and the educated youths were unaware, snoring, smashing their mouths, and pulling the quilt to cover their heads.

Director Ma laughed angrily, didn't say anything, waved his hand, "Open the window and lift the quilt!"

The staff rushed in, opened all the windows, and the cold wind blew in, and then lifted the quilts one by one and took them away.

The educated youths were stimulated by the cold air, and they all woke up at once, some of them were sleeping and grabbing the quilt with the staff, and some of them were trembling with their hands when they were sleeping shirtless.

The villagers outside the window all stood up to look at the Western scenery, and were amused by the embarrassed image of the educated youth.

Director Ma watched expressionlessly, waiting for the educated youths to put on their clothes.

"The female intellectuals are all up, right?"

"They all got up and ate in the cafeteria. The staff whispered.

Seeing that the educated youths were all dressed on their hands, Director Ma asked, "I told you yesterday that I would go to the village today, what time do I want you to get up?"

The educated youths did not speak, some looked ashamed, some looked angry, and some were sleepy-eyed.

"What time is it?" shouted Director Ma.

"We are trains and cars, we are so tired that we are dying, what's wrong with sleeping a little longer, as for the upper platform?" someone among the educated youth couldn't help but whisper.

"It's just that I'm so tired!" echoed someone else.

"It seems that you really need to be re-educated, you don't have much ability, and there are a lot of problems!" Director Ma gritted his teeth in anger, "It doesn't matter if you are tired or not when you are planting crops and grabbing crops, you won't have to eat for a year if you are lazy! It doesn't matter if you are tired or not, if you can't run, you will lose the war and the country!"

The voice is not loud, but it is deafening, although the educated youths are all teenagers, they are usually the second in the world, and they all know right and wrong at this moment, and their faces are ashamed.

Director Ma calmed down his emotions, pointed outside, and said: "The nearest ten miles from Cunha to the county is fifty or sixty kilometers away, and the villagers have to rush in the middle of the night in order to pick you up, and they can't arrive until dawn. But what about you, lie on the kang and fall asleep, let the villagers wait. ”

The fellow outside hurriedly said: "Director Ma, don't be so serious, BJ's baby is here for the first time, don't suffer hardship, it's okay for us to wait." ”

"That's right, city baby!"

"The foreheads are rough and thick, get used to it!"

······

The villagers played a round for the educated youth, and Director Ma's face was slightly better.

"Director Ma, we are ignorant and have caused trouble for you and your fellow villagers. Zhong Yuemin stood up, turned his head to the other intellectuals and said, "Let's bow to Director Ma and the fellow villagers, one is to apologize, and the other is to express gratitude." Will it succeed?"

Zheng Tong was the first to respond: "Cheng, it should be!"

Under the call of Zhong Yuemin, the educated youths bowed seriously to the villagers present, and the villagers were a little shocked, they didn't expect the baby from the city to do this.

An old man said excitedly: "It is worthy of being from the capital, they are all good babies!"

Others also praised it.

Director Ma had a smile on his face and said, "Okay, let's just think about it, hurry up and eat and follow the villagers into the village." ”

When he arrived at the cafeteria, Director Ma saw that the female intellectuals were slowly swallowing their meals, "What's wrong, can't you get used to eating?"

"Director Ma, we ate hand-rolled noodles yesterday, why do we only have sorghum paste today?" asked a bold female intellectual.

"Oh, that's it. Director Ma smiled, "We have a ration of grain, and the county specially approved some white noodles in order to entertain you, who knows that you ate all of them yesterday." Today, this sorghum paste is still the ration of the staff of the county party committee, and it is specially reserved for you. ”

"Ahh

"It doesn't matter if we don't eat a meal, we can't treat you badly, you still have to hurry, you can't have an empty stomach, eat quickly. ”

Director Ma looked at the male intellectuals standing behind him and greeted, "Don't stand still, hurry up and eat, don't let the fellows wait." ”

"Director Ma, you can eat with us, we can't let you go hungry. Zhong Yuemin's nose was very sour, and his eyes were uncontrollably moist.

"Ha, everyone in the county party committee hasn't eaten, just to let you eat enough, so hurry up and leave, don't harm us!" Director Ma saw that the atmosphere was a little thick, and made a little joke.

However, everyone couldn't laugh, and the educated youths were moved by the comrades of the county party committee to take care of them, and at the same time, they also initially realized that the local poverty was poor, and even the county party committee had no surplus food, so they had to save food from their mouths.

"I said, classmates, don't be shy, hurry up and eat, we can't live up to the hearts of the leaders of the county party committee, we must eat clean!" Zheng Tong shouted.

"Eat, get out of here when you're full!"

"Hahaha······"

The educated youths rushed to take bowls of sorghum paste, gobbled it up, ate sorghum paste that they had never eaten before, and started the real first meal in northern Shaanxi.

Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong and several other educated youths were assigned to Shichuan Village, Tucheng Commune, which is dozens of miles away from the county seat and is located on the loess ridge on the south bank of the tributary of the Dali River.

It was Du Laohan who came to pick him up, dressed as a typical peasant in northern Shaanxi, wearing a white sheep's belly towel, wearing a bare sheepskin jacket, and driving a big car.

Everyone loaded everything into the car, and found that there were really some people who couldn't sit down.

"Male classmates should carry forward their style and let female classmates sit. Zhong Yuemin pulled down Zheng Tong, who was about to get into the car.

"No, you didn't listen to the old man, dozens of miles of mountain roads, you are going to kill me!" Zheng Tong stopped doing it and complained.

Another male classmate also complained: "There are ten of us, why is there only one car?"

"There is only one big car in the village, and I don't want to have more. Du Laohan suddenly opened his mouth, "You city babies, why don't you stay in the capital, what are you doing here!"

"Okay, okay, all the female classmates got on the bus, the male classmates were in batches, and the old men came all the way, why can't you go! Zheng Tong and I were the first to go first. ”

"What are you pulling me for!" Zheng Tong had no choice but to be pulled by Zhong Yuemin and walked dejectedly.
