On the train, most of the passengers were young intellectuals like them, both men and women, with luggage, satchels, net bags, and daily necessities such as enamel jars in their pockets, most of them were full of excitement and their eyes were full of longing for the future.

Zheng Huihui curled up in her seat, leaning against the window, hugging her knees.

"Comrades, the countryside is a vast world, and we will make great achievements when we get there!" A young woman with short ear-length hair stood up, waved her arms, and said in a loud voice, "We must go with full enthusiasm, and don't show this discouraged expression, making people think that the state is coercing you to go to the mountains and go to the countryside!" ”

Hearing this accusation, a girl like Zheng Huihui, who was sad because she left home, immediately put away the look on her face, wiped her face with her sleeve indiscriminately, and pretended that there was no one among the people who cried just now.

A girl sitting next to Zheng Huihui was two years younger than Zheng Huihui, with two braids tied with a red head rope.

She was the one who cried the loudest just now, with a melon seed face, big eyes, small diamond lips, white and clean skin, tall and thin, but there seemed to be water flowing out of her eyes, revealing a sense of pity and pity.

"My name is Zheng Huihui, what's your name?" Zheng Huihui asked her sideways.

"Zhou Zhou, my name is Zhou Zhou."

Listening to the accent of being a native of the capital, Zheng Huihui's expression became much more cordial, "I just saw that the ticket you took was to Huaihai City, and so did I, so where were you assigned to the Wanglou Brigade??" ”

Zhou Zhou whispered: "Wang Lou Brigade." ”

"So coincidentally?" Zheng Huihui's face was full of surprise, "I will also go to the Wanglou Brigade, we can be companions." ”

Zhou Zhou listened, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

She is a child who does not love her father at home, the most redundant, the eldest sister above is the most favored, in order not to go to the countryside, she took over her mother's work in the food factory in advance, and the younger brother below is a family treasure, staying at home on the grounds of young age, so the quota for going to the mountains and going to the countryside fell on her, and she was assigned to the Mongolian steppe at that time.

Her grandmother loved her, saying that the prairie was not a good place, and that she might not be able to find a second person after running on a horse for a day and a night, so she secretly went to find a distant cousin aunt, and the uncle of the aunt's family transferred her to the Wanglou Brigade in Huaihai City.

Aunt Tang told her grandmother that the Wanglou Brigade was a good place to live there with peace of mind.

Whether it is a good place, Zhou Zhou can't be sure for the time being, but when they got out of the car, they found that only the people from the Wanglou brigade drove two mule carts to pick them up, and after confirming their identities by name, they beckoned the seven of them to put their luggage on it, and the people sat on it, while the other brigades had at most one or two ox carts, only pulling luggage and not people, and all followed them back on foot.

An old man in a sixtieth armor who took the lead in the Wanglou Brigade said: "I am the captain of the Wanglou Brigade and the branch secretary, my name is Wang Zhengguo, I don't care where you come from, when you get to the Wanglou Brigade, you have to listen to me!" Now that the luggage is moved, you all get in the car! ”

Three men, four women, and seven educated youths shivered involuntarily, and obediently sat on the mule cart for men and women.

Wang Zhengguo drove the mule cart that sat in the female comrade, and asked Wang Dachun to catch the other one, he first asked Zhou Zhou to move from the back and sit in front of him, and set aside some vacant seats for others, and while waving the whip to drive forward, he said: "You are here to receive re-education from the poor middle peasants, then learn to work honestly, don't say this will not be with the shelves of the people in the city, that will not be, you will study hard, you will learn to work hard, and only when you earn your work can you have food to share!" ”
