The place where Zhao Qingru went to the countryside is called Shenjiawa Village, although it is located in Dongou Province, a coastal province in the south of the Yangtze River, it belongs to the northern mountainous area, and it is a famous poor village under a famous poor town. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoEven after 20 years of reform and opening up, it is still a relatively backward region and lags behind. Mainly because of a geographical location, too ecstatic. There are three villages in Shenjiawa, Shangwan Village, Shenjia Village and Xiawa Village, surrounded by mountains, the only yellow mud road, or the people's government after the liberation of the organization to repair, straight to the Qingshui Lake Reservoir.

If you want to go to the nearest market town, Datang Town, you have to cross the mountains and mountains and walk on the yellow mud road for more than an hour, and then you have to take a boat to the other end of the Qingshui Lake Reservoir. As for getting from Datang Town to the township, you have to take a shuttle bus that runs once a day in the morning and in the evening, and it takes nearly two hours on the road.

Of course, Zhao Qingru, who was still suffering on the train at this moment, didn't know this. At this moment, she was shrinking in her seat, listening to the young man sitting opposite her talking about high (nonsense) and wide (chaotic) arguments, and yawned in a depressed mood. I really can't blame Zhao Qingru, Xiao Nizi has been suffering on the train for a day and a night, and it is said that there are still two days and one night before the final destination. In the seventies of the twentieth century, there were no high-speed trains, not even the lowest level of air-conditioned express trains, and some were just green-skinned coal-burning steam trains. That's it, it's not easy to buy a ticket with a seat, you have to have a letter of introduction, and you have to open the back door.

For Zhao Qingru, who always traveled abroad for one or two months a year in his previous life, his impression of the means of transportation is nothing more than that: either an airplane or a high-speed rail, and occasionally a self-drive. Zhao Qingru, who rarely rides in air-conditioned express buses or something, suddenly changed into a coal-fired steam-powered green train, and after a day and a night, he has not yet reached his destination, which is not a very big test. It's just that the speed is slow, and the most difficult thing for Zhao Qingru to accept is probably people. There are too many hearts. Seeing so many people at first glance, Zhao Qingru was stunned, and thought that he had caught up with the Spring Festival/Yun/Min/Gong/tide.

There are a lot of people, and in the narrow carriage, the smell can be imagined.

The only thing that can make Zhao Qingru happy is that it is already late autumn and October at this time, and if it is a few months earlier, the smell in the carriage will only be more ecstatic.

"Xiao Ru, you said that we went to the countryside to be educated youth, can we still go back to the city?" The girl who spoke was called Lu Yingchun, a new friend of Zhao Qingru after getting on the train. With two long braided twisted flowers and a melon seed face, like Zhao Qingru, he has just graduated from junior high school. Originally, after graduating from junior high school, Lu Yingchun could take his mother's class and work as an apprentice in the factory. Who knew that after the eccentric grandmother knew, the mother who forced Lu Yingchun to make the decision gave up this job as an apprentice to the little cousin of Lu Yingchun's uncle's family, who was only two months younger than Lu Yingchun. For this reason, Lu Yingchun had to pack up his package and go to the countryside to be an educated youth.

When you go to the countryside to become an educated youth, the organizational relationship or something will be transferred to the village where you go to the countryside. That is to say, even if he lived in Yanjing before and was a resident at the foot of the Eight Classics Imperial City, he had to obediently become a peasant after going to the countryside. Therefore, people with conditions are naturally reluctant to give up their own babies, and whether they can endure hardships or not is secondary, the key is to be a soil/farmer, with their backs to the loess all their lives, and they will eat in the field, and there is no future.

"I don't know." Although Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun hit it off at first sight, at this time on the train, there were seven or eight peers who were also educated youths around, so it was naturally impossible to say anything, "One step at a time." In fact, it doesn't matter if you are a farmer for a lifetime. ”

There is naturally a difference between a peasant and a peasant. Not to mention, in Zhao Qingru's previous life, that is, in the future after a few decades, like some wealthy well-off villages, dividends of tens or even millions of dollars per year, villas, houses, and cars, those days were not better than ordinary white-collar workers in big cities. Of course, if you have a poor income, you have to work outside as a migrant worker, and you can't make any money all year round, and you will be deducted from your wages by unscrupulous bosses.

In fact, it is not at all whether it is a farmer or not. What about the city hukou? What about rural hukou?

"I said Zhao Qingru, don't tell me, you really want to take root in the countryside and settle down." Sitting diagonally opposite Zhao Qingru, across the aisle, the girl named Si Tian raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Qingru, and sneered unceremoniously. Si Tian's facial features are actually good-looking, but it's a pity that he has a big cake face with fragrant powder on his face. Before the person approached, the scent had already rushed to the face.

Because they are all educated youths, and the places where they go to the countryside are the same, the neighborhood committees give them the tickets they buy. But for some reason, after everyone sat together and introduced each other, Si Tian had an inexplicable hostility towards Zhao Qingru. Zhao Qingru was sure that she didn't know this girl named Si Tian before this, and there was no intersection, so she didn't notice Si Tian's inexplicable hostility for the time being.

"Yes, Xiao Ru, you don't really plan to marry a peasant, do you?" Lu Yingchun blinked, attached it to Zhao Qingru's ear, and said softly, "Before getting in the car, my mother told me a thousand times to protect myself, don't be hot-headed, and marry a farmer." Otherwise, you'll break my leg. ”

"I'm only a few years old, and it's still early to get married or something. Even if I am hot-headed and want to get married, my eldest brother is afraid that he will not agree. ”

"Your big brother?"

"Well, my eldest brother is also a educated youth there. This time, I deliberately chose Datang Town, also because my eldest brother was a young man in Shenjiawa Village below. Speaking of which, I haven't seen my eldest brother for two years, and I don't know what happened to him now. ”

For his mother-in-law's eldest brother Zhao Qingshan, Zhao Qingru has not seen him, and the remaining memories of his mother-in-law do not have many fragments of Zhao Qingshan. Zhao Qingru can only remember this big brother who has a bit of luck by quietly flipping through the photo album. Otherwise, if you meet again, you won't be able to recognize it, but you will be ashamed.

"That's nice...... Speaking of which, I haven't seen my eldest brother and second sister for many years. Xu is Zhao Qingru's words touched a certain heartstring in the hearts of everyone present. The girl with short hair sitting next to Si Tian said slowly, "In the past, the eldest brother always relied on himself to be the boss and bullied me and the second sister. Later, the eldest brother went to the Northeast to be an educated youth, and he was gone for seven or eight years, and he wrote back every year to say that he would come back for the New Year, but he deceived people every year...... Grandma didn't wait for her eldest brother to come back until she died...... Later, the second sister went to Gansu. Now it's my turn, and I'm the only one left in the family......

As she spoke, the girl's eyes were a little moist as she spoke. Zhao Qingru remembered that when this girl introduced herself before, she said that her name was Li Yuehong.
