Principal Zhong was still waiting; he had already said everything he wanted to say.
There's no need for me to stay any longer.
Gu Hanping clapped his hands, as if he had just remembered: "I forgot, Principal Zhong brought some people over earlier. I was going to tell them to sit at the brigade headquarters for a while. But Principal Zhong didn't allow it. They went up the mountain instead and planned to sit in your yard for a while and wait for you to come back."
Gu Yunyang already knew the news, but when he heard it, he pretended to have just found out.
"Oh, then I'll head back now. I can't keep the principal waiting too long."
Gu Yunyang had actually guessed why Principal Zhong had brought people over.
However, he didn't show it.
After saying goodbye to Gu Hanping, Gu Yunyang saw Fang Xinmei at the educated youth settlement at the foot of the mountain.
Fang Xinmei is now living alone in the educated youth settlement, which is quite comfortable, but she is also a little worried.
"That's Gu Yunyang."
Fang Xinmei hesitated for a moment, but still called out.
Gu Yunyang stopped, looked over, and nodded: "Fang Zhiqing, is there something you need?"
Fang Xinmei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Well, what I mean is... I'm living alone in the educated youth settlement now, and I always feel a little unsafe. You..."
There were originally six educated youth in total: one male and five female.
Gu Yunyang was the only male educated youth, but he changed his household registration to the local area and became the brigade secretary.
Of the five female educated youths, Han Xue and Yang Shengnan moved to the mountainside.
The remaining three, Shi Junyao and Gu Changhong, worked at the commune's health center.
Fang Xinmei was left alone at home.
The Red Flag Brigade is generally quite simple and honest, but it also has its share of eccentric characters.
Fang Xinmei, being a girl, is indeed in some danger.
If a man were to sneak in, Fang Xinmei's reputation would be completely ruined.
In this relatively conservative era, her reputation was ruined; if she didn't marry the man who ruined her reputation...
They basically couldn't make ends meet anymore.
Gu Yunyang thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll have Heizi come over and keep watch for you. You can try to find a villager to bring back a dog to raise. Or wait until after the summer harvest, I think some educated youth will be coming down. In a few days, Shi Junyao and Gu Changhong will also be back."
Even if Gu Changhong wanted to stay at the health center, she couldn't stay there indefinitely.
Regardless of whether Gu Changhong has that much money or is willing to spend that much money to stay in the health center.
Living there wasn't convenient to begin with.
Shi Junyao also kept raising fish everywhere.
If you walk the night too often, you're bound to encounter a ghost.
It's impossible that Gu Changhong didn't discover it all along.
So it'll be in the next day or two, those two will definitely be back.
Fang Xinmei had no other good options, so she had no choice but to agree.
Gu Yunyang left the educated youth settlement and headed up the mountain, thinking about it along the way.
Now that the Red Flag Brigade has money, we can consider building a few houses at the educated youth settlement.
The original plan was to set up a bunch of bunk beds so that the educated youth could squeeze into these two rooms.
However, Gu Yunyang considered that if everyone were crowded together, it would be easy for conflicts to arise.
It would be better to build more rooms, most of which would be free, and people could just stay in these two bunk beds for free.
We'll build some more single rooms later, so those with money and needs can rent rooms there.
It costs two yuan a month, and you can stay alone.
It's likely that most people who have the means, like Fang Xinmei and Gu Changhong, would choose to live alone.
Fewer people can also help avoid some conflicts.
If a conflict can be resolved by spending some money, it's better not to create trouble for yourself.
While thinking, Gu Yunyang had already climbed up.
From afar, I could see two people sitting in my yard, talking quietly.
Gu Yunyang greeted him from afar: "Principal Zhong, what brings you here? I just got back from the commune. If I had known, I would have gone straight to your house to find you."
