The tricycle drove on the mountain road for more than an hour and turned a corner onto a gravel street.
A row of blue brick and tile houses appeared in front of us, with the words "Luchuan Commune" painted in large letters on the walls of the blue brick and tile houses.
Lin Shu jumped out of the car, looked around, and finally arrived.
"Hey, girl, are you going to Dongxi Brigade?" Aunt Zhang, who also got off the car, ran to Lin Shu and asked.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Oh, what a coincidence, we're from there." Aunt Zhang said cheerfully, "Let's go together, it's not far."
Lin Shu nodded: "Okay." She was worried about how to get there.
They soon arrived at Dongxi Brigade.
"Miss, are you going to the educated youth compound? Let my granddaughter take you there." Aunt Zhang pushed the little girl beside her in front of Lin Shu.
"No, no need, Auntie." Lin Shu waved his hand quickly.
"Yes, yes." Before Lin Shu could react, Aunt Zhang took the little boy's hand, turned around and trotted away.
Lin Shu stared at Aunt Zhang's back with wide eyes as she walked away, and looked down at the little girl who was still standing there and looking up at her.
Helpless, she could only let the little girl take her there.
The little girl had two pigtails on her head and a shy smile on her face.
Lin Shu squatted down and gently asked the little girl, "Do you know where the educated youth compound is?"
"I know." After saying that, she ran in one direction.
Lin Shu shook his head and hurriedly followed.
Aunt Zhang's head peeked out from the wall not far away. She looked at Lin Shu and the little girl and chuckled, "This is what intellectuals call a building, water, and moon."
Then she hummed a little tune and took the little boy back home.
Here, Lin Shu followed the little girl to the gate of the educated youth compound.
Lin Shu took out two White Rabbit candies from his pocket, or actually from his space, and gave them to the little girl: "Thank you."
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then ran away with the candy.
At this moment, the gate of the yard was opened.
"Lin Shu, you're here."
The person who came out was Xu Juan!
Xu Juan ran to Lin Shu with a happy face and hugged her.
"I heard that you went to chase the human traffickers. Are you okay?" Xu Juan asked, holding Lin Shu's hand, her eyes full of concern.
Lin Shu shook his head, feeling warm in his heart, "It's okay."
Lin Shu briefly described the situation to her.
Xu Juan exclaimed in amazement as she listened.
Then, Xu Juan introduced the situation of the educated youth compound to Lin Shu as they walked.
Lin Shu listened and looked around.
The educated youth compound was built at the end of the village. It was called a construction, but in fact it was converted from the house of a landlord in the original brigade.
Perhaps because of its long history, the house is very old and many walls show signs of repair.
There is a small courtyard on each side. The female educated youth live in the courtyard on the left, and the male educated youth live in the courtyard on the right.
There were originally fifteen educated youth, both male and female, and with the addition of Lin Shu and his group, there were a total of twenty educated youth, nine males and eleven females.
There were only two dormitories in the courtyard for female educated youth, which meant that at least five people lived in one dormitory.
"This is it." Xu Juan led Lin Shu into one of the dormitories and said, "The dormitories next to it are full."
The windows in the dormitory are quite large and the light is quite good.
However, the dormitory was filled with a smell of dust and mold.
There were three kangs connected to the walls on each side of the dormitory, but now only two are empty. One of them contains her bag, which Xu Juan helped her bring.
"Oh, all the good seats are taken." Xu Juan said with regret.
Lin Shu looked at the environment and imagined the collective life in the future, and his scalp went numb.
She considered the possibility of finding a house and moving out.
She wants her own space and is a very private person.
Of course, if you can't, you can only take things as they come.
"Hey, are the new educated youth here?" Voices were heard outside the house.
It should be the educated youth who went out who have returned.
Lin Shu and Xu Juan went out.
"Why are you here?" A sharp, questioning voice sounded.
Lin Shu raised his eyes.
It turned out to be Liu Fang.
She was staring at Facebook with disbelief on her face.
"Why can't I come?" Lin Shu asked puzzledly.
Liu Fang did not answer Lin Shu. She stared at Lin Shu as if possessed, muttering to herself in a sticky tone.
A man named Xiao Qiao, whom they met on the train, patted Liu Fang on the shoulder and said with a frown, "Do you know each other?"
Liu Fang finally came to her senses, forced a smile, and said to Xiao Qiao, "I know him, we are good friends."
Then, he said to Lin Shu, "Right, Lin Shu."
Lin Shu looked calm and said nothing.
She suddenly remembered that someone had wanted to change her location in the countryside, and that person should be Liu Fang.
Why? Lin Shu was confused.
No one spoke and the atmosphere became awkward.
"Hmph, let's go. Why are you standing here?" Xiao Qiao said indifferently, leaving Lin Shu and the others and going into the room.
"That's Li Mei." Xu Juan pointed at another unfamiliar educated youth and introduced her to Lin Shu. "She's also from our dormitory."
Li Mei smiled at Lin Shu, then lowered her head, looking a little shy.
Lin Shu returned to the dormitory to make his bed, and Xu Juan helped him.
"Why do you have so little stuff?" Xu Juan asked.
"I have sorted out the things at home and will send them to you in batches when the time comes," said Lin Shu.
She originally wanted to put it directly into the space, but in order to prevent people from noticing that something appeared out of thin air, she couldn't take the easy way out and only put the small and important things in.
"Wow, so smart! Why didn't I think of that?" Xu Juan said disappointedly, "I still lack a lot of things." Then she became excited again and said, "Come with me to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow."
