This summer, because Tingting had just started her pregnancy and wasn't feeling well, she just stayed home to rest and didn't go to the mountains. She plans to go next spring. She did enough of that last year, so it doesn't matter whether she goes or not.

They started picking up the educated youth, using carts meant for transporting grain. With all those big and small bags, they definitely wouldn't have been able to get back without being pushed by cart.

The team leader sent people to pick them up, and the truck was piled high with their belongings. The road was bumpy and uneven, with loose stones everywhere, which exhausted all of them.

Upon arrival, the team leader explained the situation to them, and they all went inside to tidy up on their own.

The two girls introduced themselves. The sweet-looking girl was named Liang Tiantian, and she was 17 years old. The tall, thin girl with braids was named Li Xiulan, and she was 19 years old.

Xiulan, let's go say hello to those two boys in the front yard. We can help each other out in the future. The four of us are all new to this place.

Looking at the house, Liang Tiantian sighed, "I thought it wouldn't be well-off, but I didn't expect all the houses to be like this. Since we're here, let's just leave it at that for now."

"Sweetie, you don't know, this place is much better than other places. My parents got me here through connections. Otherwise, it would be easy to go hungry in other places. Here, we live off the land, at least we can eat our fill."

"Okay, Xiulan, let's pack our luggage and go to the front yard to get to know everyone."

"Xiulan, why did you bring such a thick blanket? There's so much stuff."

"You have no idea how cold this is in the north. It's not even winter yet. If you have time, write a letter to your parents and ask them to get some thick blankets."

"Sweetie nodded, she was also from the South, and couldn't imagine how cold winters in the North really are."

After the two finished tidying up, they greeted the people in the front yard.

"Hello, my name is Liang Tiantian."

"Hello, my name is Li Xiulan."

Hello, my name is Zhou Guangfu, and I am 20 years old.

Zhou Guang is very thin, but very tall, with a slightly long face; he must be over 1.9 meters tall.

My name is Lin Guodong, and I am 19 years old.

Lin Guodong is a traditionally handsome man with very large eyes. He is 1.8 meters tall and seems to have a sunny personality.

"Now that everyone knows each other, let's arrange some work. The team leader said that the autumn harvest is not far away, and we should get used to it before we start working."

Everyone nodded and started chatting naturally, showing how quickly they adapted to being part of a group.

"If we're going to work, we need to divide up the other small tasks. We don't know if anyone else will come this year. We girls will cook and clean the yard," Lin Guodong naturally arranged.

"But as for our food, everyone gets as much as they need and eats as they want, so there won't be any unfairness. One of us boys will fetch water and another will go up the mountain to collect firewood. This is how it's arranged since there are only a few of us. We'll see what happens when there are more people."

The group nodded and began preparing their first meal in the village.

When Grandma Qin saw that the educated youth had entered the educated youth settlement, she was quite excited. These educated and good-looking young men were perfect for her eldest grandson.

Jianjun and Tingting naturally found out about it as well, and they were also talking about it.

"Honey, the captain sent someone to bring them back; there were two men and two women."

"Yeah, we should stay away from each other too, keep a safe distance. That's how it's always written in novels."

"This has nothing to do with us. As long as no time traveler comes, we're not afraid. I wonder when the number of people watching our village will decrease."

"Such a big thing happened, I feel it will take at least 3 to 5 years. Be careful, it could be quite scary if it happens to you when you're not paying attention."
