"There's something going on at the bureau. I'm staying here for the next two days. If you have any questions, come find me at the bureau."
Zhang Zhizhi said to his lover.
His wife, Zhou Xuemei, nodded understandingly, "Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll take good care of this little girl."
Zhang Xizhi nodded, told Qiao Qingqing to live there peacefully, and left with Xishi.
"Aunt Zhou, I'm really sorry to bother you." Qiao Qingqing said apologetically.
Zhou Xuemei reached out to take her bag. "What's the bother? You're just a little girl. If you encounter difficulties, who else can you turn to if not the security officer?"
She invited Qiao Qingqing to come in and sit down, and poured her some water.
After sitting down, Zhou Xuemei asked kindly: "Have you eaten?"
Qiao Qingqing said softly: "I had lunch in the county town this morning."
"It's already afternoon. Have you eaten since this morning?" Zhou Xuemei stood up again quickly. "I'll make you some noodles."
Qiao Qingqing was indeed hungry, so she did not pretend to refuse, but she had already made up her mind to leave some tickets and money for this kind family when she left.
Although they were no longer staying in a guesthouse, it did not mean they didn't have to pay for tickets. The only difference was that the people who paid the money and tickets were Zhang Xizhi and his wife.
However, not long after Zhou Xuemei entered the kitchen, someone knocked on the door.
"Mom, I'm back!"
Hearing the sound, Zhou Xuemei hurried out from the kitchen.
She muttered in surprise: "Miao Miao? Why are you back now?"
Qiao Qingqing stood up, and after the door opened, a young and energetic high school girl appeared in front of her.
She had a student haircut and was wearing a school uniform.
She looks like Qiao Qingqing's junior.
"Mom, our school is closed."
Zhang Miaomiao said as she walked into the house.
Seeing a stranger in the house, Zhang Miaomiao asked in confusion: "Who are you?"
"Hello, junior, my name is Qiao Qingqing." Qiao Qingqing introduced herself with a little embarrassment.
Zhou Xuemei closed the door and hurried to her daughter's side. "This little girl is quite pitiful. Your father asked her to stay at our house for two days. Miaomiao, let's not talk about this for now. What does it mean that your school is closed?"
Qiao Qingqing knew clearly in her heart: the tide of history had begun.
Perhaps because this is a small county town, it took about half a month for the movement to spread here.
"I just don't want to go to class. Mom, you don't understand. Nowadays, everyone says that studying is useless and they are clamoring to go to the countryside. I also want to go to the countryside and contribute my strength to the motherland." Zhang Miaomiao said righteously.
Zhou Xuemei was stunned. She didn't understand why the school was suspended for no reason. Why was studying useless?
"Mom, pack my things quickly. I'm going to the countryside in two days." Zhang Miaomiao dropped another bombshell.
Zhou Xuemei's eyes darkened when she heard this: "You want to go to the countryside? Your father worked so hard to support your studies, and you don't even want to study anymore and go to the countryside?"
When Zhang Miaomiao heard this, she looked at her mother seriously and said, "Mom, what kind of thinking is this? Isn't it glorious to go to the countryside? Are farmers inferior to others? This is capitalist thinking!"
"Junior, junior." Qiao Qingqing smiled and interrupted. If she continued to yell, this girl would bring disaster to her parents. "Aunt Zhou didn't mean that. I also want to go to the countryside. If Aunt Zhou had that kind of thought, how could she help me selflessly?"
Zhang Miaomiao's gaze then returned to Qiao Qingqing.
"You keep calling me your junior, are you also from the county high school?"
