Just before it got dark, the car, which had been bumping along the way, finally stopped.
A gruff voice came: "Everyone come down, we've arrived at Zhushi Village."
"Wake up, we've arrived at our destination."
"We're finally here."
Young men and women pushed each other to wake them up.
Chu Yanyan was shaken by the young woman next to him, holding his shoulders. He opened his eyes, and his vision gradually cleared. He stood up, holding his bag, and watched the people in the car jump out one by one. He walked over to where the car was a certain distance from the ground, and he prepared to jump down.
The young woman who had already come down reached out to help Chu Yanyan with something and said enthusiastically, "Comrade, I'll help you with your things. Please jump down slowly and don't twist your foot."
"Thank you." Chu Yanyan carefully looked at the face of the enthusiastic young woman. She had two pigtails, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a healthy complexion, and a smile on her face, which attracted the attention of others.
Information about this young woman came to his mind. Jiang Tiantian, the heroine of this dimension, was seventeen years old.
After the ten educated youths got out of the car, the leader, a tall, middle-aged man with a rough appearance and wearing washed-out army green clothes, stood in front of these young people with confused eyes and said in vernacular:
"Welcome to Zhushi Village. I'm Chen Baoguo, the township head. In the coming days, you will live in Zhushi Village and obey the labor tasks assigned by the village chief. You must work actively and not be lazy. If you want to go to town, you must ask the village chief for permission and inform him of the reason..."
Chen Baoguo had faced many groups of educated youth who went to the countryside, and by this time he was already familiar with a lot of rules. At the end, he said in a more emphatic tone:
"The country's rural development needs young people like you to strive for the best and contribute your own strength! I hope you can stay true to your original aspirations, dare to be the first, work hard, and devote your youthful sweat to rural development!"
After Chen Baoguo finished speaking, the young people seemed to be pumped up with blood, their eyes shining with determination as they applauded: "Good!"
When Chu Yanyan saw everyone around him clapping, he started clapping too.
After the fierce noise, the village head, village party secretary and villagers who were responsible for receiving these educated youth came one after another.
The village party secretary was an old man in his seventies with a white beard. He walked towards Chen Baoguo with the help of the village chief.
Chen Baoguo explained the situation to him and handed him the list.
After explaining everything, it was almost dark and the people from their township still had an hour's journey to go back, so he didn't say anything more and asked the village party secretaries to treat these educated youth well. After that, he got on the truck and left with his other companions.
As the truck rolled, it kicked up a layer of dust and flew away.
Led by the village chief, the ten educated youths continued to walk towards the brigade headquarters in front.
At night, the tungsten filament bulbs in the room emitted an orange light that illuminated the small space, and their luggage was piled at the door.
After everyone sat down, the old branch secretary spoke and welcomed them.
Chu Yanyan sat aside, chin propped up on elbow, listening to the old man's words, glancing at the mud wall covered with black dirt. There was a slight stench in the air, indicating that the situation here was more or less bad. However, with so much land here, he should be able to find a piece of land to grow carrots. Thinking of carrots, Chu Yanyan's eyes lit up again.
According to the system's plot, the person he was to rescue this time was Li Hexing, a 25-year-old bachelor from Lianhua Village, Zhushi Village. Li Hexing and his parents had originally lived in the city. However, his parents were murdered, and the 18-year-old returned home with his younger sister. However, the villagers learned of his parents' fate and began to ostracize him and his sister.
A few years ago, his sister fell ill at night. By the time he called the village barefoot doctor, his sister had already died.
With his only hope dead, Li Hexing became even more depressed. He looked unkempt, spoke little, and had a low sense of presence. He never complained about the hard labor and low-work-point jobs in the team.
The house he lived in was dilapidated, he didn't know anyone, no matchmaker dared to introduce him to a wife, and no girl wanted to marry him.
Li Hexing lived alone until one winter when he was 35 years old, he went fishing in the river. He caught a cold, had a high fever, and died of convulsions.
When the villagers found his body, it had already started to stink.
When Chu Yanyan reviewed Li Hexing's life, the old branch secretary had finished speaking. He discussed with the village chief and several other uncles. Finally, the village chief Li Dahua spoke.
"We have five teams in Zhushi Village. Teams 1 and 2 already have educated youth, and the remaining teams are 3, 4, and 5. We plan to have four educated youth in Team 3, and three each in Teams 4 and 5."
These educated youth nodded to indicate that they understood.
"You can form a team and choose teammates, so that you can help each other when you are in the team." Li Dahua said.
After Li Dahua said this, heated discussions broke out in the simple meeting room.
"Yanyan, team up with Jiang Tiantian." The system's voice came.
Chu Yanyan understood what was going on. He looked up at Jiang Tiantian opposite him and found that there was a group of people surrounding her, and her companions all wanted to form a team with her.
As the heroine, Jiang Tiantian is eager to help others and has her own charm, so she is naturally the most popular girl in the team.
Her original husband was the son of the village chief, who taught at Zhushi Primary School. The two met during this period and finally got married.
After the college entrance examination was resumed, she took the exam together with the male protagonist, and finally got admitted to the same university with excellent results.
