Chapter 30: The Focus
The familiar person behind the captain was none other than Comrade Ji, who had just separated from him yesterday.
Ning Xiyue stood not far from the stage and looked at Comrade Ji on the stage. Comrade Ji happened to look over and nodded at her. She was sure that Comrade Ji had come with the award certificate and letter of commendation that she had been longing for.
I really didn't expect that she just arrived in the village yesterday afternoon, but Comrade Ji came this morning. She is really a good comrade of the people, and her thank-you letter was not written in vain.
On the other side, Ning Xiaoxiao was shocked to see the people on the stage. She squinted her eyes and took several steps back, trying to hide in the crowd to reduce her presence. The man on the stage was so scary that she still couldn't forget his sharp look.
On the stage, the team leader took a big loudspeaker and tapped it to test the sound. A resounding voice came out of the loudspeaker: "Everyone, be quiet. Today's meeting is to discuss the autumn harvest and to introduce the new educated youth in our team..."
The team leader was talking on a loudspeaker with saliva flying all over the place. All he was saying was the importance of the autumn harvest. All comrades must do their best to harvest the grain as soon as possible. After the team has handed in the public grain, they will start distributing the grain and strive to ensure that every household can eat this year's new grain as soon as possible. He went on and on with his mobilization speech, but whether the members in the audience actually listened to him was another matter.
However, looking at the members below who were used to it, whispering to each other, doing their own things, and quite a few chatting, it was obvious that everyone was only listening with one ear.
For the members of the team, what the captain said were all the same old things, nothing new. It happened every year, the same words over and over again, and those with a good memory could memorize them.
It was not until the team leader on the stage asked the newly arrived educated youth to come on stage and introduce themselves that the interest of the members below the stage was aroused.
The gossipy people in the team: Every time there are educated youth coming, the team will be lively for a while, and now there is something good to watch.
The matchmaker in the team said: These educated youth are so handsome, they are all good prospects.
Young people in the team: That female educated youth is pretty, and that male educated youth looks very cultured.
Ning Xiyue, standing on the stage, felt the fiery gazes coming from all directions. She felt like the national treasure panda in the Sichuan Zoo, being surrounded by a whole group of people, looking at her curiously, pointing and commenting from time to time, and making jokes.
She also vaguely heard people in the audience discussing her scar.
Ning Xiyue was thick-skinned and didn't blush or get nervous. She stood there openly and let them look at her and talk. She just let them listen in one ear and out the other. She even had the leisure to chat with the captain and say hello to Comrade Ji.
But Liu Yao and Wang Mengmeng who were standing nearby had never seen such a scene before and were shy. After they stood up, their faces turned red like monkey butts and they were extremely shy.
"Hey, you old guys are so rough, you've made those two young educated youths feel embarrassed, hurry up and restrain yourself."
The more they said this, the more excited they became. In the end, their faces became redder and even the male educated youth felt embarrassed.
Seeing that it was almost time, the team leader picked up the loud speaker and shouted a few times: "Quiet, everyone is introduced to the new educated youth. Finally, I have one good thing to tell you."
"Does everyone see the two comrades behind me? Do you know what they are here for?"
"Captain, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us quickly." An impatient person urged from below.
Seeing the curious faces below, the captain did not keep the secret any longer and said loudly:
"These two are comrades from the county public security bureau. They sent a certificate of award and a letter of praise to a comrade in our team. That comrade did good things and helped the public security comrades a lot. We use this as a commendation and encouragement. We hope that more outstanding comrades can learn from this comrade, do good things and serve the people in the future."
The audience asked each other: "Who is the captain talking about? Does anyone know?"
"This comrade is our team's new educated youth, Comrade Ning Xiyue. Please come over and receive your award."
All eyes were focused on Ning Xiyue, sparking a discussion among everyone.
"I told you this educated youth is no ordinary person, but you still don't believe me."
"You guys still say that scars on other people's foreheads are ugly, but maybe this scar was caused by you helping the public security comrades. This is a medal."
"Hints."
Ning Xiaoxiao in the audience looked at Ning Xiyue receiving the award on the stage in disbelief, and her eyes were filled with jealousy. She wondered resentfully in her heart why all the good things happened to Ning Xiyue.
Ning Xiyue felt that the gazes at this moment were terrifying. Everyone looked at her with green eyes, as if they wanted to eat her alive. She was definitely the focus of the whole audience.
She really didn't expect that the captain and Comrade Ji would make such a big fuss for her. It was such an unexpected surprise.
That's good, now everyone in the team knows about it, and she can easily live in the team and get along well with everyone.
"Come on, Yuewazi, quickly take the certificate and thank-you letter."
Zhang Dawei's face was full of smiles. He said that Yuewazi was the best among this group of educated youth. Look, he had won an honor just after arriving, and his team also benefited from it. They were sure to be the advanced collective this year. Their team would definitely win.
"Comrade Ning, I have brought you your certificate and thank-you letter." Ji Yanming handed the things in his hand to Ning Xiyue with a faint smile on his face.
"Thank you, Comrade Ji."
Ning Xiyue looked down at the certificate in her hand. There were actually two stamps on it. One was from the Public Security Bureau of the provincial capital city she had passed by, and the other was from the Public Security Bureau of Da'an County.
Seeing the official seal on the back, Ning Xiyue smiled with satisfaction. That old comrade was so nice.
Old comrade: I am so happy that I inadvertently received the credit for Ji's contribution.
"Yuewazi, this is a reward from our village. I hope you can keep it up and bring honor to our team." Zhang Dawei took out a brand new enamel basin and handed it to Ning Xiyue as a reward.
Ning Xiyue bent over to take the basin and started to talk: "Thank you, Captain. I will continue to work hard to make our Daliu team shine and contribute my own strength to our Daliu team's advanced collective."
