After walking for a while, we arrived at Wang Qinghong's dormitory.
When Wang Qingli opened the door, she saw a room of about ten square meters. There was a single bed on each wall, two small wooden cabinets at the head of the bed, and an aisle in the middle. It looked clean and tidy, not bad.
"Sister, save all your salary and buy a house in the county in the future."
"The county will build welfare housing for employees, and I'll try to get it when the time comes. Besides, it's pretty good for me to live here alone. We have a home in the brigade, and that's our home. I usually go back there during my free time."
"Sister, have your parents given you any trouble in the past two years?"
"When they were recruiting, they came to me and wanted me to take the exam and transfer the job to Qingxiang after I passed. I didn't agree and just kicked them out. Don't mention that we have a rule here that jobs can't be transferred privately. Even if there wasn't such a rule, I wouldn't have transferred it to him. Don't worry, I'm a different person now."
"So after you got a job, did they ask you for money?"
"They asked me to give them pension. I told them that I was the only daughter who was separated from the family and left with nothing. Even if both my children were to provide for their retirement, my contribution should be less than Wang Qingxiang's. I would pay half of what he paid. Don't try to fool me, I will go to the brigade headquarters to check the accounts.
How dare they let me check? Qingxiang doesn't even earn enough to eat, and he still has to rely on them for support. So, I don't have to give them a penny, even the gifts for the New Year and other festivals."
"Sister, you did the right thing. We have a division agreement, so we're not afraid of a fight."
Wang Qinghong put his arm around his sister's shoulders and said with emotion, "We've both finally made it through."
What she didn't say was that when Wang Anfen and his wife came to her house a second time to ask her to give them the pension, she imitated her sister and threatened them, saying, "Don't bother me. If you make me unhappy, I'll kill Wang Qingxiang."
The old couple left in shame and never looked for her again.
After the sisters gathered, Wang Qingli returned to Taoyuan Commune to report.
Secretary Li and Director Zhong spoke with her. "Xiao Xie often mentioned you to us before, saying you were daring, enterprising, and driven. Now that you're in college, your horizons have broadened and your knowledge has increased. If there's anything you want to do, feel free to speak up."
Wang Qingli smiled and said, "Don't worry, leader. The country has nurtured me, and I will definitely do my best to repay it."
Secretary Li smiled and said, "You're familiar with Xiao Zhao. Let her introduce you to your colleagues in the commune. You can work together and support each other in the future. Also, let her show you around the commune. Our commune has changed a lot, and getting familiar with the new environment will be beneficial to your future work."
"Okay. I'll go find her right away."
Wang Qingli left the office of Secretary Li and Director Zhong and found Zhao Hongxia next door. She was now the deputy director of the commune office, and the director was of course Wang Yiming.
Wang Qingli is the deputy director of the Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Station.
"Hongxia."
"Hey! Deputy Station Master Wang, welcome!"
Zhao Hongxia greeted her with a smile, "Sit down, let's chat for a while."
She introduced Wang Qingli and Wang Yiming: "This is my senior, Comrade Wang Yiming. This is Comrade Wang Qingli, the first college graduate from our Liushutun Brigade. She has returned from her studies to build our hometown. Sister Qingli is very capable, and of course, Comrade Wang Yiming is also very outstanding."
Wang Yiming and Wang Qingli greeted each other.
Under Zhao Hongxia's guidance, Wang Qingli got to know the people in the commune. Then, Zhao Hongxia took her out of the commune compound and headed straight for the cadre school. "Let's go find Binbin first, and then I'll take you to the animal husbandry and veterinary station."
Wang Qingli smiled and said, "You don't need to take me there. I can go there by myself. I studied veterinary medicine there before, so I'm very familiar with it."
Zhao Hongxia slapped her forehead and said, "Hey, I forgot about it."
They passed by the grain store and went in to greet Zhang Ruifeng: "Aunt Zhang."
"Qingli is back! Look at her, she's really changed! She's getting prettier and prettier, and you can tell she's smart and capable!"
Wang Qingli smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, I just love listening to you talk."
Zhang Ruifeng smiled and said, "Then come and chat with me if you have time. Our grain store is especially busy on weekends, but it's okay on weekdays."
"Hey. I'll go find Binbin first and talk to you later."
"Okay."
After Wang Qingli and Zhao Hongxia left, Zhang Ruifeng's colleague asked her, "This is your brigade's first college student."
"Yes! She might have done it! She made a way for herself. She's an exceptionally good girl."
Zhang Ruifeng gave a thumbs-up as she spoke, "If all young people were as capable as her, our country would be able to quickly achieve the Four Modernizations and quickly become a moderately prosperous society."
Wang Shuzhen smiled and said, "Young people are indeed full of energy. My son had difficulty adapting to the countryside when he first arrived, but now he is working very hard. When I go to see him during my break, he doesn't have time to pay attention to me."
Chen Lihong also said: "Let's not talk about far away places. Our Qushui County is running fast enough. Our Taoyuan Commune has to add an extra 'even'."
☆
Zhao Hongxia brought Wang Qingli to the cadre school and stopped at the gate. She pointed at the signs and said, "Look! Our Taoyuan Commune is about to become extremely successful."
Wang Qingli looked at the impressive names and was silent for a moment. None of the universities in Beijing dared to display so many names for themselves!
Zhao Hongxia said, "Some of them died before you left, and some died afterward. The people here are amazing."
Wang Qingli nodded. "I know a thing or two. I even delivered research materials to the Ministry of Metallurgy on Binbin's behalf."
