Chapter 256 The Bad Trio
The next morning, at the gate of Yongchuan Commune.
A huge crowd of people was crowded outside, everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles, and the scene was bustling with activity.
When Ning Xiyue arrived in the town, she was separated from the members of the Youth League Institute's team. Of course, she was forced to separate because there were too many people and she was squeezed out once she squeezed into the crowd.
It is no less difficult than catching the train during the modern Spring Festival travel rush.
Ning Xiyue finally squeezed to the entrance of the commune, but was dumbfounded when she arrived. She thought there were enough people outside, but she didn't expect there were even more people here, and there was not a single gap for her to squeeze in to see what was going on.
Unable to squeeze in, Xiyue gave up.
He said to himself, "Alas, there are too many people here. I'd better not go in. I'll wait here and I'll definitely see my second brother."
Ning Xiyue found a deserted corner diagonally opposite the entrance of the commune, took out a brick from her bag and put it on the ground, turned it into sofa mode, sat on it leisurely, and watched people coming and going in front.
She saw many familiar faces, all aunts and uncles in the team. Some were trying hard to squeeze in, while some smarter people didn't try hard and would be carried in by others by just standing in the crowd.
Of course this was very uncomfortable and Ning Xiyue didn't want to squeeze in. After sitting down, she didn't want to get up. The back massage function on the brick was so comfortable.
Others just thought that she was sitting on cold bricks, but in fact she was sitting on a virtual massage chair, enjoying the massage of the bricks. No one present was more relaxed than her.
If she wasn't afraid of being thought to be mentally ill, she would even want to close her eyes and enjoy it, then take out the kettle to drink the health tea.
But it was still possible to restrain one's expression, drink tea from the kettle, and eat something.
Ning Xiyue, a man of action, did what she said. She took out the water bottle slung across her body and started drinking from it in small sips. With her other hand, she took out a piece of chocolate that Comrade Ji had sent her and started eating it. She caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye and quickly stood up and waved.
He shouted, "Second brother, here."
Ning Qingyuan had seen his sister sitting in the corner a long time ago, holding a kettle in one hand and a piece of chocolate in the other, sitting there comfortably looking at the crowd. She was still wondering when she would see him, but she saw him the next second.
They were indeed brother and sister, as if they had telepathy. When he left the commune, he subconsciously looked towards this corner and he really saw his sister.
Ning Qingyuan walked over with a smile on his face and said teasingly, "Sister, you picked a good seat. It's quite enjoyable to sit here. You've even had the chocolate. Should you take out the mung bean cake next?"
Ning Xiyue took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and handed it over, while adding jokingly: "It's not impossible if Second Brother buys me the mung bean cake."
"Okay, then let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some mung bean cakes so you can sit down and eat as much as you want." Ning Qingyuan did not give in at all and took out the money from his pocket and shook it.
Ning Xiyue picked up the brick on the ground, dusted it off and put it in her bag, then followed her second brother towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
On the way, Ning Xiyue curiously asked about the situation inside the commune. It didn't matter if she didn't go in, but her second brother had been in and knew the situation inside very clearly, which was equivalent to her going in.
"Second brother, how is it? What's going on inside?"
"It's not a big deal. Everyone was filling out the registration forms. Some commune officials who couldn't write helped, so it was a bit slow. That's why it was so crowded later."
Ning Xiyue sighed and said, "I'm not asking you that. I'm asking if you've noticed how many people have signed up for your position."
"Well, I didn't pay much attention to it, but I know a piece of news inside." Ning Qingyuan looked at Ning Xiyue in suspense.
Ning Xiyue urged him as he wished: "Hurry up and tell me."
"In addition to the miners, other logistical positions should be selected from our team and your team. All aspects of coal mining have a great impact on the surrounding residents. This can be considered a benefit for our two teams."
After hearing this, Ning Xiyue knew what this meant. This meant that the main competitors were the people from their two teams, so the competition would be relatively smaller.
After hearing the news, Ning Xiyue didn't care anymore. There was nothing else she wanted to know. She just waited for the exam to reveal the results.
Ten days later, all the registered candidates went to the town middle school to take the exam, and the results were announced on the spot.
All the people from Ning Xiyue's Youth Academy went to the town middle school. Those who took the exam went in to take the exam, while those who didn't sign up stood at the door waiting, their main purpose was to join in the fun.
Liu Yao stood at the door, pacing back and forth a little anxiously, looking inside from time to time.
"Xiyue, Mengmeng, you said Sister Guifang and Ye Chu have been in for such a long time, why haven't they come out yet? I saw many people come out, but my cousin didn't see them either."
Ning Xiyue and Wang Mengmeng, who were called, sat comfortably under the shade of the tree, each sitting on a small chair with a backrest, leaning lazily, drinking tea and eating melon seeds.
The small basket hanging between the small chairs where two people sat was already half filled with melon seed shells.
Wang Mengmeng waved at her while eating melon seeds. "Don't worry, come and sit down and rest for a while. Have a drink of water. You are not tired, but I am tired just watching you walking around."
Liu Yao came over and sat down, took a sip of water, then looked at Ning Xiyue and asked curiously: "I understand that Mengmeng is not anxious, Xiyue, aren't you anxious too? Your brother hasn't seen anyone either."
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's useless to be anxious. The result will be what it is. We will know when the time comes. It doesn't matter whether you are selected or not. The important thing is to participate. You have to learn to be calm."
Ning Xiyue grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them in Liu Yao's hand: "Come, eat the melon seeds, or there will be none left."
Then she looked at Wang Mengmeng and said, "The melon seeds are delicious this time. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some later."
Wang Mengmeng took a melon seed in her hand and looked at it carefully: "It tastes better than before, and the size is bigger. I'll buy some more later and eat them while chatting at work in a few days."
“That’s a good idea.”
The two of them sat there cozily and comfortably, eating melon seeds and chatting. Liu Yao also calmed down and followed suit, leaning on her chair and eating melon seeds: "Forget it, I don't care anymore. You are right, I have to stay calm and eat melon seeds."
"That's right. Nothing can be better than living a comfortable life." Ning Xiyue handed the kettle to her: "Here, take your kettle. These melon seeds are delicious, but they waste a lot of water."
The duo that was playing badly thus turned into a duo of three. While they were sitting on chairs eating melon seeds and chatting, they were waiting for their partner to come out.
Ning Xiyue raised her eyebrows and looked at the people walking towards the door: "Look, they came out together."
