The team leader beamed. "That's the third piece of good news I want to share. Originally, they were going to build a primary school among our four brigades, with ours and Lu Wanwan's in the middle. The commune had been hesitating between us, but during this rainstorm, because of a few young educated youth, Lu Wanwan's team simply gave up the competition out of gratitude."
Upon hearing this, the villagers all looked excited. Although they couldn't go to college, which parent wouldn't want their children to learn more words?
At least they won't be cheated when they go to the county, because they themselves have suffered from illiteracy and don't want their children to be cheated in the same way.
Isn’t the purpose of their lifelong struggle as adults to make life better for their descendants?
Although they usually looked down on those weak educated youth who could not work, everyone envied them in their hearts because they were educated people.
Moreover, recruiting workers in the city requires academic qualifications. If someone has studied and learned to read, and their family has a worker, that would be a great joy!
In the past, the school was in the commune. Firstly, the commune was too far away, and secondly, there were many human traffickers, so we were not comfortable sending our children there.
So there are only about ten children studying in the village, and now we can send our children to school with peace of mind.
"That's great, my boy Tiezhu can go to school now." Aunt Li looked excited.
"Yes, I want to send Heimao to school too."
"Yes, yes, send them all to school, learn knowledge, and become cultured people."
"I know you are happy, but listen to me first." The captain said helplessly with a smile on his face.
Everyone was having a great time discussing, but they stopped immediately when they heard the captain's words.
"Captain, you say."
"Yes, yes, tell me quickly, is there any other good news?"
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Su Mianmian and others couldn't help but smile when they saw this scene. The atmosphere in the Sanyang Brigade was quite good.
The people are simple and honest, and the villagers are kind, except for one or two of them, of course.
The captain was also amused by the man's talkativeness, "Hey, you're right, it's really good news."
After that, the captain fell silent. Everyone was itching to speak, and they all said, "Captain, please stop keeping us in suspense."
"That's right, Captain, tell me now, don't keep me in suspense!"
The team leader was just teasing them, but when he saw they were getting anxious, he said, "After the primary school is built, teachers will be selected from among our teams through an election. After passing the exam, they will be directly appointed. Each team will select two. In addition to the vacancy just mentioned, our team still has two more."
"That's great. My Xiaonan is a high school graduate. Let him try." Aunt Cai looked excited.
"Yes, Xiaonan is a good student, he can give it a try." Aunt Li agreed.
"Let her try our bean sprouts too," said Aunt Lu, the secretary's wife.
Aunt Cai nodded, "Yes, Dou Miao is in the same class as my Xiao Nan, and she's better at studying than that brat Xiao Nan."
Aunt Li: "Yes, Dou Miao is the only female high school student in our team."
The girl with a slightly dark face and neat short hair blushed when she heard what everyone said.
She is Duan Miao, the daughter of Party Secretary Duan Pingyuan, and the villagers are used to calling her Dou Miao.
Wang Yindi was not far from Aunt Cai and the others. When she heard them say that, she curled her lips in disdain.
I cursed in my heart: A bunch of peasants, what the hell are you dreaming of?
Seeing this, Ruan Yin pulled Song Hongmei away from her and said, "Sister Hongmei, look at the way she looks down on everyone."
Song Hongmei noticed that Wang Yindi was similar to Jiang Jiaoer, and warned Ruan Yin, "Xiaoyin, stay away from her."
Ruan Yin listened to Song Hongmei's words very much and nodded seriously when she heard them.
On the other side, Xiao Haoyu glanced at Wang Yindi's appearance and whispered to Bai Ning, "Ningning, stay away from her from now on."
Bai Ning learned his lesson last time and has ignored Wang Yindi since then.
Even if Xiao Haoyu didn't remind her, she would ignore her.
Seeing that time was almost up, the team leader picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Okay, although we are excited, we still have to go to work. Let's get busy."
Everyone stopped discussing and was about to leave when the team leader said, "By the way, Shen Zhiqing, after your teacher quota is selected, you can only go to work for the time being. You can go back to work after the school is built."
Shen Yuandao glanced at Su Mianmian and the others, and seeing that no one spoke, he replied, "I understand, Captain."
Just as everyone was about to leave after hearing this, the team leader patted his head again and said, "Look at my brain, Shen Zhiqing, An An's mother, those people in the cowshed should live in your two families first. I will let them move out after the cowshed is built."
Su Mianmian and the others all showed reluctant expressions in tacit understanding.
Everyone showed sympathetic expressions.
Seeing this, the team leader quickly said, "Don't worry, we won't let them live here for free. Let them pay you rent. If they don't have money, you can use work points to make up for it."
Yun Shu's expression changed at this moment, and he said with a reluctant look: "Alright, Captain."
Shen Yuan said: "Okay, Captain."
Su Mianmian and the others disagreed on the surface, but they were very happy in their hearts.
"Okay. It's all right now. Let's get back to work!"
The crowd scattered, some went up the mountain to carry food, some went up the mountain to dry the wheat.
Su Mianmian, Su Qingqing and Yun Shu went to the field. After removing the oilcloth covering the wheat for the area they were responsible for, they went to harvest the wheat.
Shen Yuandao and Qin Huaichuan followed the men in the team to the mountain to move food.
Su Mianmian was harvesting wheat when the piece of letter paper in the space suddenly appeared in her mind.
It read: Helped the villagers reduce their losses, indirectly saving the fate of those deported by the Luwanwan Brigade. Reward: Space upgrade, can now raise living things.
Su Mianmian widened her eyes in disbelief. After all, she didn't do anything this time and relied on everyone's help.
Su Qingqing couldn't help but look at her when she saw her like this: "Mianmian, what happened?"
Su Mianmian whispered two words to her.
Su Qingqing immediately understood that something good was going to happen, nodded and stopped asking questions.
The other side
The captain went to Shen Yuandao's house.
Old Master Shen moved a chair to the yard to bask in the sun. Yan Tongchun was drying herbs while Su Xinzhang was reading Shen Yuandao's book.
Suddenly the three of them heard a knock on the door.
Su Xinzhang put the book away and went to open the door. When he saw the person coming, it was the captain, he asked, "Captain, what's going on?"
As he spoke, he made way for the captain to enter.
The captain looked towards the courtyard and nodded, "Old man, Comrade Su, Comrade Yan."
Then he walked in. There was a small bench in the yard. Su Xinzhang handed it to him and said, "Captain, sit down."
The team leader sat down and said, "There are two things I want to do today. First, you can start working now. Second, you will temporarily live in these two houses. You can move in after the cowshed is built."
"Okay, thank you, Captain."
"Thank you, Captain."
"Thank you very much." The team leader waved his hand. "Don't thank me. I'll apply to the commune for materials for the cowshed, but you have to build it yourself. I won't help you. Also, you'll be living in someone else's home, so you have to pay for their food and accommodation."
