Uncle Niu also thought about the fact that Shen Lingling and Fang Siwen had been separated for all these years, and felt that it was not good, so he became a little worried about Tian Tian.
"Uncle, I'm working there too. It's quite convenient for me to live there. It may just be a little difficult to come back!"
Hearing this, Uncle Niu felt relieved and began to care about Tian Tian's work again, "What kind of job did your school assign you?"
"I'm a teacher. I'm a teacher in a school in the provincial capital. It's actually quite relaxing. There are winter and summer vacations."
Tian Tian touched her braids and smiled a little embarrassedly: "When I come back from vacation, I can come back to see my parents, just like now!"
"Being a teacher now, Tiantian is really promising?" Uncle Niu exclaimed.
"Actually, I'm just a teacher, and I teach students. How can I have a future or not? Don't I still have to listen to the arrangements of the principal? I have no power and nothing to do, and I can't arrange anything." Tian Tian said.
She has to inform them in advance. She is just a teacher and can't do anything. Don't ask her to get his child into school. She doesn't have the right to do so.
Of course, she didn't say this to Uncle Niu. She just said it in case someone really came to her for help in the future and this word got out, everyone would know that she didn't have the ability.
"Alas!" Uncle Niu disagreed, "This is a stable job, what arrangements can be made? You have this job, what do you have to worry about in the future?"
"Then Gu Zhao, what is your job now?" Uncle Niu asked curiously. They all knew that Gu Zhao had been admitted to university, otherwise he would not have left the team like that.
You haven't seen those educated youth who failed to get into college for many years and used all kinds of means to return to the city.
"I'm just an ordinary worker in the machinery factory!" Gu Zhao said with a smile.
"That's a promising thing!" Uncle Niu praised.
The two of them talked to Uncle Niu for a few more words and then left the cowshed.
Next, Gu Zhao went to see the educated youth center. As an educated youth, the place he was most familiar with should be the educated youth center. However, Gu Zhao moved to a small house not long after living there and had no feelings for the educated youth center.
The two of them did not go in, but stood outside the door and looked inside. The windows were covered with thick oil paper and the snow in the yard had been cleared. It could be seen that there were still people living in this yard.
"Are there still educated youth in our team now?" Gu Zhao asked.
Tian Tian nodded, "Some educated youth were admitted to universities and returned to the city. Some educated youth had injured their legs and stayed in our brigade. They also applied for medical retirement and returned to the city. The rest were educated youth who had established families in our brigade. They did not get admitted to universities and did not plan to return to the city, so they continued to live in the brigade."
In fact, there is no one in the educated youth site now. The people living there are a married pair of educated youth. They originally rented a house in the brigade. For a bag of grain a month, they could rent a shabby courtyard in their brigade.
Later, the educated youth in the site left or got married, and the site became vacant. After asking the team leader, they moved back to the site.
They were originally educated youth, and although they were married, they still had this title, so living in the educated youth center was free.
Later, the country cancelled the movement of sending educated youth to the countryside, and no more educated youth went to the countryside, so this educated youth site remained vacant.
However, if the educated youth who had gone to the countryside did not have a job, they would not be able to return to the city. Those who returned to the city through medical retirement would still be very likely to be arrested again after they recovered from their illness. Therefore, this educated youth site has been preserved, and it is legitimate for them to live in it.
As they were talking, the couple living in the educated youth center opened the door and came out.
The walls in the educated youth site are not high. The one next to Tian Tianyao's is not high. Most of the walls here are like this. They are made of neither yellow mud nor bricks. They are just stones with regular shapes picked up from the river and then piled together.
Except for the walls on both sides of the door, which are quite special, they are really high walls made of yellow mud. After looking at the two circles, they are basically all like this, but the stones are also simply fixed with yellow mud.
Therefore, they saw Tian Tian and Gu Zhao standing outside the wall at a glance.
Tian Tian was not very familiar with the people in the educated youth center. The only ones she was familiar with were Gu Zhao, Fang Siwen, Qin Changfeng, and Li Jiuniang. As for the rest of the people, although she was familiar with their faces, she couldn't remember most of their names.
In recent years, Tian Tian has spent most of her time studying outside, and has become even more unfamiliar with these educated youth, whom she was already unfamiliar with.
But the two people inside obviously knew Gu Zhao and Tian Tian. When they saw Gu Zhao and the other two, they smiled and greeted them, saying, "Gu Zhao? I heard from others that you were back last night. I didn't expect to see you today!"
Gu Zhao also knew them and said with a smile, "I was thinking of coming to the Youth League Center to take a look, but I didn't expect that there were people living there!"
"I didn't know about your marriage before, and I didn't send you anything!" Gu Zhao felt a little embarrassed. It didn't matter if he hadn't seen her before, but now that he had met her, he had to say something nice.
"Oh!" The male educated youth waved his hands. "What's the point of gifts? We didn't go through any formalities when we got married. We just went to the county town to get a marriage certificate and that was it. It takes a lot of manpower, money and materials to do that. You see, we are all in the countryside and there is no elder to help us. So we just didn't do it. It's pretty quiet here."
"Would you like to come in and sit for a while? It's very cold outside!" The female educated youth also greeted them both very warmly.
"No need. It's getting late now. We have to go back to eat. I'll be here for quite a while. I'll come to see you one day and we'll have a good meal!" said Gu Zhao.
They have been out for quite some time, almost an hour, so Lin Meiyu should have almost finished cooking.
Although Lin Meiyu didn't want them to help with cooking, they couldn't just sit there and do nothing. They went back to see if there was anything they could do to help Lin Meiyu so they could lend a hand.
Gu Zhao and Tian Tian walked home together. Before they entered the house, they smelled the aroma of meat.
When they entered the house, they saw that the braised pork was already prepared and was placed in a clay pot on the brazier, simmering over low heat.
"Are you back?" Lin Meiyu glanced at them, turned the fish in the pot, covered it with the lid and continued to stew it, then started kneading the dough to prepare some pancakes.
"Um!"
Tian Tian leaned over, opened the jar, took a look, and smelled the odor.
Mmm! It smells like stewed meat.
Whether Lin Meiyu is making braised pork, stewed pork cubes, or braised pork with sauce, she can always make the taste exactly the same.
Tian Tian also felt it was very magical, but when she thought about the fact that there were not many seasonings now, just soy sauce, salt and vinegar, Tian Tian didn't find it strange.
If she were to cook it, she would just add a little salt and soy sauce, and the taste would probably be similar to this.
