When I got home, Chen Shiying had already returned from work and was busy in the kitchen.

Hearing Zhou Ziwen coming back, she poked her head out of the kitchen.

"Ziwen, you're back! How was your harvest today?" Chen Shiying asked curiously as she looked at Zhou Ziwen's full backpack.

"Not bad. With Xiaofeng and the others helping us today, hunting was much faster." Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.

"Really? That's great." Chen Shiying said in surprise.

Zhou Ziwen put down his tools and began to process the prey.

He first plucked the feathers of the hare and pheasant, his movements skillful and quick.

When handling roe deer, they are even more careful, dividing the roe deer meat carefully and trying not to waste any part.

Of course, the contributions of Tayun, Xiaobudian, Xiaoyun and Xiaofeng were indispensable in catching so many prey.

Tayun and Xiaobudian eat cooked food, but Xiaofeng and Xiaoyun accept anything.

Zhou Ziwen fed the processed offal to Xiaofeng, Xiaoyun, and Xiaolei. They pecked at it happily, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

"You guys did a great job today!" Zhou Ziwen praised with a smile.

After processing the prey, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Shiying began to prepare dinner.

At this moment, Zhou Qiang's voice came from outside the door.

"Brother Qiang, why are you here?" Zhou Ziwen came outside and asked curiously.

"Ziwen, I came here to talk to you about something."

Zhou Qiang's face didn't look very good. Obviously, he hadn't recovered from the blow of failure.

"What's the matter? Brother Qiang, tell me." Zhou Ziwen asked in confusion.

"It's like this. Zhang Wenli is going to report to the university soon. Once she leaves, there will be no female educated youth team leader in the educated youth institute." Zhou Qiang said slowly.

"Oh, so that's what it is." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

"So, we plan to hold a meeting tonight to elect a new female educated youth team leader," Zhou Qiang continued.

"Hold a meeting? Brother Qiang, can't you just decide this matter by yourselves? Why do you need to hold a meeting?" Zhou Ziwen didn't want to participate.

For him, it doesn’t matter who is the captain, as they can’t control him anyway.

"Ziwen, you know that the situation in the Youth League Institute is complicated. If we make the decision ourselves, others will definitely have objections." Zhou Qiang said with a wry smile.

"That's true." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

The situation in the Youth League Institute was indeed quite complicated. The educated youth came from all over the world and had different personalities. Sometimes a small matter could cause a conflict.

"So, we plan to hold a meeting and let everyone choose for themselves," said Zhou Qiang.

"Okay, I got it. I'll come over after dinner." Zhou Ziwen agreed.

"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore. I'll go back first." Zhou Qiang said and left.

Zhou Ziwen returned to the kitchen and told Chen Shiying why Zhou Qiang had come.

"It seems that the Youth League Institute is going to be bustling again." Chen Shiying shook her head.

"Yeah, every time we choose a captain it's like fighting a war." Zhou Ziwen was also a little helpless.

"Ziwen, who do you think will be chosen as the captain of the female educated youth team this time?" Chen Shiying asked curiously.

"How would I know? You know the situation in the Youth League Institute very well. Anyone can be promoted or demoted." Zhou Ziwen shook his head.

"That's right." Chen Shiying smiled.

The two chatted while busying themselves, and soon dinner was ready.

After dinner, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Shiying cleaned up the dishes and went to the Youth League Home together.

Many educated youth had gathered in the large courtyard of the Youth House. They gathered in groups of three or four, talking in low voices.

Zhou Ziwen and the two sisters found a seat and waited quietly for the meeting to begin.

Zhou Chaoyang, Chen Zhaodi, Tang Yaoyao and Zhou Ziwen gathered together, chatting and laughing.

"Brother Zhou, who do you think will be chosen as the captain this time?" Zhou Chaoyang asked curiously.

"Who knows? There are so many talented people in the Youth League Institute. Anyone is possible." Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.

"I think Li Hongxia is a good choice. She is serious about her work and has a good personality," said Shen Zhaodi.

"Yes, I also think Li Hongxia is suitable." Tang Yaoyao also agreed.

"Haha, then let's wait and see who everyone will choose." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

As he was speaking, Zhou Qiang and several educated youth came over with some papers.

"Everyone, please be quiet. We will start the meeting now." Zhou Qiang clapped his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet.

The educated youths all quieted down and turned their eyes to Zhou Qiang.

"I believe everyone already knows the purpose of today's meeting. Zhang Wenli is about to report to university, so we need to re-elect a female educated youth team leader." Zhou Qiang said straight to the point.

"Then how do we choose? Vote?" asked an educated youth.

"Yes, we vote." Zhou Qiang nodded.

"Who is the candidate? Isn't it another internal choice?" another educated youth asked worriedly.

"Of course not. The candidates are recommended by everyone, and then we vote," Zhou Qiang explained.

"I choose Comrade Chen Shiying. She is the deputy leader of the Mushroom Group. She is serious and responsible in her work and will definitely be a good team leader." An educated youth immediately recommended.

"I also recommend Chen Shiying. She has a good personality and we all support her." Another educated youth also echoed.

"No, no, no, we won't participate in the election. After all, we don't live in the Youth House, and we can't handle any problems in time. Let's just vote for someone else!"

Seeing the excitement coming towards him, Zhou Ziwen hurriedly stopped it.

What a joke! He doesn't want Chen Shiying to do such a thankless task.

"Brother Zhou is right. Sister Shiying is busy enough in the Mushroom Group. There is no need to cause more trouble for herself." Zhou Chaoyang also agreed.

"Yeah, let's choose someone else." Shen Zhaodi and Tang Yaoyao also nodded.

"Well, since Comrade Zhou Ziwen doesn't want to, then we won't choose her."

Zhou Qiang smiled. He also knew that Zhou Ziwen's family was very busy and it was indeed not suitable for him to be the leader of the educated youth team.

"Then let's continue to recommend candidates." Zhou Qiang continued.

"I recommend Zhao Xiaolan. She works diligently, has a cheerful personality, and has good relationships with everyone," recommended an educated youth.

"I also recommend Zhao Xiaolan. She will definitely be a good team leader." Another educated youth also echoed.

"Okay, then we will decide on Zhao Xiaolan as the candidate first. Does anyone have any other recommendations?" Zhou Qiang asked.

"I recommend Li Hongxia. She is serious about her work and has a steady personality. I think she is quite suitable." A female educated youth recommended.

"I also recommend Li Hongxia. She is usually very nice to everyone. I think she can be a good team leader." Another educated youth also said.

"Okay, then we will decide on Zhao Xiaolan and Li Hongxia as candidates. Does anyone have any objections?" Zhou Qiang asked.

"no comment."

"We all agree."

The educated youth all expressed their agreement.

"Well, since everyone has no objection, let's start voting now." Zhou Qiang said, taking out paper and pen and distributing them to the educated youth present.

The educated youth wrote down the candidates they supported and handed the notes to Zhou Qiang.

Zhou Qiang and several educated youth counted the votes together, while the others waited on the side.

After a while, the votes were counted.

"Okay, the voting results are out." Zhou Qiang announced loudly, holding the statistical results.

"Zhao Xiaolan received the most votes and was elected as the new female educated youth team leader."

"Congratulations, Xiaolan." The educated youth expressed their congratulations to Zhao Xiaolan one after another.

Zhao Xiaolan had never expected to be chosen as the leader of the female educated youth group. She stood up and said to everyone, "Thank you for your trust. I will definitely work hard to do my job as leader and serve you all."

"Sister Xiaolan, you can do it." An educated youth said with a smile.

"Yes, Xiaolan, we all support you." Another educated youth echoed.

"Thank you, everyone. I will definitely not let you down." Zhao Xiaolan nodded firmly. (End of this chapter)
