The mission this time is a secret investigation. If you want to investigate, you can't be too conspicuous. The more ordinary and popular you are, the easier it will be to act.
Before setting off, Song Yun and the other ten team members confirmed the emergency contact signal and the secret meeting every seven days. They would then decide how to summarize the information they had gathered based on the situation.
Once they left the military area, they had to pretend not to know each other. Even if they sat in the same carriage and the same row of seats, they were still strangers.
On the 13th of the month, Song Yun boarded an ox cart heading to Shengqian Commune.
She was assigned to Daqiao Village of Shengqian Commune. There were three other educated youth assigned to Daqiao Village with her, two men and two women.
Ever since Song Yun met these people, she has been pretending to be honest and dull, and didn't talk much to the others. When they arrived at Daqiao Village, the other three were already chatting animatedly and ignored Song Yun. It seemed that no one liked people with too dull personalities. Of course, part of the reason was that dull people looked easy to bully.
The educated youth station in Daqiao Village was located in an old house. According to the brigade cadre who brought them here, this old house used to be the home of a landlord. After the landlord was overthrown, there was no one at home, so the house became empty and later became the educated youth station.
The house is quite big, with three rooms and a small side room used for storing miscellaneous items.
This place is not like Heilongjiang Province, where everyone sleeps on beds in a big dormitory. This house seems to have a lot of rooms, but the rooms are actually not very big. At most four people can sleep in one room, which is already the limit.
Before they came, there were no vacant rooms here, but some rooms slept two people, and some rooms slept three people, so they could move beds around.
There are three rooms for female comrades, one for two people, one for three people, and one for four people. After Song Yun and another female comrade came over, they could make two beds by moving around.
But who would want to sleep in a crowded place with others when the sleeping conditions are already comfortable? No one is happy about it.
Xu Fengying, who came with Song Yun, was very good at dealing with people. She was sweet-talking and easy-going, and quickly won the favor of the two people and successfully moved into their room.
Song Yun, carrying her bag, looked timid as she looked at the team leader of the female educated youth and asked, "Comrade Liang Yuhang, where do I live?"
Liang Yuhang lived in a four-person room, and it was impossible to squeeze another person in. The room was completely empty. Just as she was about to speak, the female comrades living in the other two three-person rooms started to shut her up.
"We can't fit anyone in here. You know our house is smaller than yours. Three people is already the limit. There's no way we can squeeze in more. We won't be able to sleep at all."
The woman in the other room had the same idea. "Our room is even smaller, and it's hard to fit three people in it. I don't know how to arrange everything later. You can't cram more people into our room."
Liang Yuhang opened his mouth and closed it again, looking embarrassed.
She knew that these people were just saying that because they saw Comrade Song Yun being bullied for being honest. How could she not know whether one more person could be squeezed into the room?
Although she knew that these people were going too far, she was unwilling to get embarrassed with the old man she had lived with for two years because of a new educated youth.
