Chapter 158 Editor Gu, do you hate me?
In the afternoon, when the interview was coming to an end, Wei Luo took Liu Qiang and others back home. Pei Yi also went back to the commune to get his luggage and bedding, preparing to stay at the educated youth site for a long time. Only Gu Yuehuai did not go back, and he went straight off work.
She put away the drawing board and looked into the room. It was only their first day together and it would be as if too much was as bad. She gave up the idea of saying goodbye to Yan Shaoyu and turned around and left the educated youth point.
Song Jinan thought about it and chased after him.
Pan Ruoyin half-closed her eyes as she watched this scene and suddenly sneered. She had not expected to meet such a tough guy on her first day in the countryside. Not only did she bewilder her gentle cousin, but even Yan Shaoyu treated her a little differently.
A despicable country woman, she wanted to see how many tricks she had.
On the other side, Tian Jing, who was huddled in the corner, watched Song Jinan catch up with Gu Yuehuai and walk side by side with her. His gentle look when he lowered his head and smiled was just like the way he cared about her just now.
Tian Jing clenched her teeth, her pupils as sharp as knives.
Over there, Song Jinan caught up with Gu Yuehuai: "Editor Gu, wait a minute!"
Gu Yuehuai looked very calm as he turned to look at him: "What's the matter, Song Zhiqing? I have to go home and pack my things. I don't have time to chat with you."
Her attitude seemed a little cold, which made Song Jinan feel a little hurt.
He pursed his lips and said uncomfortably: "Editor Gu, do you hate me?"
Gu Yuehuai had a calm expression, not wanting to answer such a boring question, and said impatiently: "If Song Zhiqing is fine, I will leave first."
Song Jinan sighed and said, "I, I have something to ask. As a state-owned newspaper, your Masses Daily should have negotiated with the commune leadership, right? Can you introduce me to the commune secretary?"
"Commune Secretary?" Gu Yuehuai was puzzled, but also a little amused: "Do you still need me to introduce you?"
Song Jin'an shuddered slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"There are actually more than just these educated youth going to the countryside this time. There are two more, my neighbor's younger brother and sister, who were assigned to other brigades. I want the commune secretary to be flexible and reassign them here."
Song Jinan's tone was very sincere, and Gu Yuehuai knew exactly who the two people he was talking about were.
She looked at Song Jinan, and after a moment of silence, she said, "You should ask Cui Hejie for guidance on this matter. He was sent by the county's educated youth specialists and has more say. Maybe he can help."
Song Jinan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The county's educated youth special cadres are keeping a close eye on us. My family is not allowed to use their privileges. If I talk to the leaders through Cui Hejie, this matter will soon reach my parents' ears."
"This time, I want to help my friend through my own efforts, not the intimidation from my parents."
"I know what I said is a bit complicated and you may not understand it. Sigh... Never mind, just pretend I never said anything about this. Editor Gu, please go back first. I will think of a solution."
Song Jinan said this and turned back. He shook his head as he walked, with a self-deprecating look on his face. He was really crazy. Watching Gu Yuehuai leave, he chased after him without thinking. In fact, what he wanted to ask about was not the introduction of the commune secretary.
He didn't have any thoughts at the time, he just wanted to catch up with her and say a few words to her.
Gu Yuehuai stared at Song Jinan's back with a serious look, and after he walked away, he turned around and went home.
She had always known that the Song family and the Yan family had a close relationship, but this close relationship became a joke after Yan's parents fell into trouble. Song Jinan treated Yan Shaoyu as always, and they were considered friends in need. What a pity.
The matter of Yan Shaoyang and Yan Shaoli is already obvious. This clearly did not happen in their previous life, but in this life they were assigned to other teams. She didn't believe that there was no trick involved. What kind of change happened in the meantime?
Gu Yuehuai was puzzled, and when he returned home he saw Yan Shaotang sitting on the kang and eating steamed eggs.
The little girl is now fair-skinned and cute, with brand new clothes and exquisite braids, which make her look out of place among the surrounding kang and stove. However, there is no trace of disgust on her face as she eats the steamed egg happily.
When she saw Gu Yuehuai coming back, her eyes lit up like stars: "Sister!"
"Shaotang." Gu Yuehuai walked to the edge of the kang and let Yan Shaotang open his arms and throw himself into her arms. The little girl now had weight and was no longer as light and fluttery as when she first came.
"Sister!" Yan Shaotang smiled, his peach blossom eyes widened three points, exactly like Yan Shaoyu.
"Are you back? Have the educated youth been settled?" Gu Xihuai came out from the inner room and asked Gu Yuehuai.
Although he did not go out just now, he heard people say while sitting in the yard that Gu Yuehuai is now an employee of the Masses Daily, and is specifically responsible for interviewing this group of educated youth who went to the countryside.
Gu Yuehuai nodded, patted Yan Shaotang's little head, asked her to sit back and continue eating the steamed egg, and said: "Well, I was assigned by the unit to live and eat with the educated youth and record their daily life."
Gu Xihuai was stunned: "Then you don't have to go to the commune? Just live in our brigade's educated youth camp?"
"Well, I'll come back to get my bedding and stay here tonight." Gu Yuehuai said.
The educated youth center was not far from her home. Although she could not enter the Sumeru space at night because she lived there, she could find time to go home during the day. After all, Yan Shaotang was now sober and not as ignorant as before. It was also risky to live with her in the Sumeru space. No matter where she lived, it would not delay the progress of harvesting and sowing in the space.
Gu Xihuai nodded, as if thinking of something, and asked, "What about food? What should we do about it? Do we need to hand over food to the brigade?"
Gu Yuehuai paused, shook his head and said, "The team didn't say that there is a stove in the educated youth camp, so I guess the educated youth have to cook for themselves."
The brigade was short of food and could barely take care of itself, so how could it take care of these educated youth who had gone to the countryside? It would be best if they could eat separately, but the educated youths who went to the countryside also had to record their work points, so if they couldn't get food by then, it would still be a problem.
The team was shrouded in dark clouds during this period, and the commune was not expected to be much better. After all, this was not a matter of just one brigade in the Dalaozi Production Brigade, but rather the current situation and status of many nearby brigades, which was difficult to resolve.
The busy farming season is over and the work in the fields is about to come to an end. The old people, women and children in the commune will soon have their holidays, leaving only a few strong laborers to continue digging the river. The team will not arrange such hard and tiring work for the educated youth, and they should go to the farm to help.
It is called a farm, but in fact it is just a breeding ground, where you can do light work like feeding chickens, walking pigs, and herding ducks.
The old men and women on vacation are also busy. As soon as they take vacation, it is almost the end of the year. The team starts to distribute food, vegetables and various welfare benefits. These are a lot of food, so they need to be processed and pickled into cured goods or snacks.
In addition, during the New Year, people have to sweep dust, buy couplets, buy wine and cigarettes, entertain guests and give gifts. It is very lively. Unfortunately, this year it is destined that not everyone will be happy. When the notice from the production team comes down, I don’t know how many families will be heartbroken.
