Chapter 731 Will we meet again in the future?
Lin Qingmu, who was leading a delivery team outside in the distance, suddenly sneezed and woke up from his dream.
The young man in the driver's seat jokingly said, "Captain, what good news is going to happen? Am I going to have a sister-in-law?"
"Go to hell." Lin Qingmu cursed with a smile, "Do you think I look like someone who is going to get married?"
The young man driving the car glanced at him, and when he saw the captain's unkempt face, messy hair, and the eye boogers in the corners of his eyes, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"...Even if I wipe the eye boogers off, it still doesn't look like it." The man said honestly.
The young woman had high standards, and the captain's appearance gave her a negative first impression.
"Shut up and drive your car." Lin Qingmu's smile disappeared immediately.
Is it a loss?!
"Okay." The young man responded honestly.
The news of the college entrance examination was vaguely passed back to the village, and Lin Tang returned to the county to continue reviewing in his spare time.
Time flies.
In September of that year, a meeting was held in Beijing, and it was decided to resume the college entrance examination.
The October notice was distributed across the country.
The flower-growing country is full of joy, and so is Anping County.
The joy spread from the county to all the brigades, and many people cried.
Shuangshan Brigade, educated youth point.
When the educated youth heard the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination from the brigade loudspeaker, their minds went blank.
Ten years have passed.
Countless days and nights, they took root in this land, working from sunrise to sunset with the brigade members. Their originally fair skin turned dark, and their hands and feet became rough...
Sometimes, they even think they were born and raised here.
At this moment, when the educated youth in the yard heard the news that the college entrance examination had been resumed, they were all stunned.
Just then, a brigade member pushed open the gate of the educated youth site.
"What are you all standing there for? Didn't you hear the announcement? Hurry up and sign up! If you pass, you can go back to the city. Hurry up!!"
Chen Wanwan and others were shocked, and walked out of the door in a daze and ran towards the brigade headquarters.
Some people had lost their shoes and were just carrying them around randomly, not even bothering to put them on, only focused on running to the team.
Over the years, some educated youth have left and some have come, and eighteen have remained.
They ran together with great momentum.
Lin Fu and other brigade cadres saw the educated youth coming from afar and simply stood where they were.
"Captain, I heard on the radio that the college entrance examination has been resumed?! Is this true?"
Someone asked this question, but everyone else fell silent instantly, staring at Lin Lu intently.
Lin Fu looked at the familiar face in front of him, his heart suddenly ached, and he nodded affirmatively, "It's true, the college entrance examination has been resumed."
Someone who was assigned to the brigade because of a poor family background asked nervously, "Captain, are people with less than favorable family backgrounds eligible to sign up?"
Lin Fu was impressed by the young man in front of him. He was a down-to-earth and hardworking man.
He has been in the brigade for several years and gets full work points every day.
Not only did he have to earn food for himself, but he also had to send food to his relatives who were suffering somewhere unknown from time to time. It was a particularly difficult life for him as a child.
Lin Fu walked up and patted the young man, who looked older than some of the young men in the team, and nodded again, "Okay, the problem you were worried about no longer exists."
"Study hard and try to pass the exam. As long as you return to the city, I believe you will be reunited with your family sooner or later."
The young man got a positive answer. The nearly 1.80-meter-tall young man covered his face and cried miserably, crying and laughing like a madman.
"That's great. It's great to have waited until this day."
His good friend's eyes became hot and he hugged his friend, silently comforting him.
At this moment, everyone shed tears.
Lin Fu and others felt very uncomfortable watching this scene.
After waiting for a while, feeling that the educated youths had recovered somewhat, Lin Fu said with a smile, "Okay, wipe your tears."
"It's already October, and the exam is on December 10th. Time is tight, and you don't have time to cry. Get your composure together and register first..."
All the educated youth knew that the team leader was doing this for their own good, and their gratitude reached an unprecedented level.
A dozen or so educated youth glanced at each other and bowed to the brigade cadres represented by Lin Fu at the same time.
"Captain, Vice Captain... Thank you!!"
"Thank you for teaching us to work in the fields and earn work points so that we don't go hungry."
"Thank you for finding comrades to help us build a kang, so that we don't have to suffer from the cold in the winter."
"Thank you to the aunties from the brigade for teaching us how to identify wild vegetables and adding variety to our table."
"Thank you all for not holding us back and for helping us in various ways."
…
The educated youth expressed their gratitude one after another.
This made Lin Fu and others feel uncomfortable.
Besides feeling uncomfortable, I also felt a little embarrassed.
Li Jiancai pulled the captain's arm, motioning him to say something, the atmosphere was too awkward.
Lin Fu put his hand down and said with a straight face, "Alright, that's enough. We country people can't stand such cheesy talk. If you can all pass the exam, it will be a good thing for our team. There's no need to be like this. We won't see each other in the future. Isn't it embarrassing?"
When the educated youth heard this and thought about it carefully, they felt a little embarrassed.
A dozen people looked at each other, then burst into laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Lin Fu and several other team leaders couldn't help but laugh.
The laughter spread and began to spread from person to person.
I laughed non-stop for a while.
After registering as required, they learned that the book that the team leader had asked them to study and take the test for happened to be an authoritative textbook, so the educated youth began to review frantically.
Fortunately, the brigade had electricity long ago, which saved a lot of trouble.
Everyone tried their best to pass the exam and bring glory to Shuangshan Brigade.
The lights in the classroom specially used for educated youth to study were often on until the early morning.
The learning atmosphere in the team has improved.
Even Lin Zhiming, who had never liked reading, read a few more pages every day, which made Zhou Mei happy.
-
In November, the weather turned cold.
That day, a military vehicle drove into the brigade.
A middle-aged man and a boy of fifteen or sixteen came.
The middle-aged man looked to be in his forties. He was wearing a neat military uniform, and his short hair that was exposed above his military cap was a little gray.
The boy was wearing a warm coat and a cotton scarf around his neck. His face was yellow and he was extremely thin, as if he had suffered a lot in the past few years.
Before Lin Fu could say a word, the middle-aged man stepped forward and shook his hand.
"That's Captain Lin, right? My name is Pei Yuan, and the one next to me is my son Qingci..."
Pei?
Lin Fu immediately thought of the old man named Pei among the pig farmers.
"Are you here to see Mr. Pei?" he asked.
Before coming here, Pei Yuan investigated his father's situation over the years. He knew that Shuangshan Brigade had taken good care of his father and he had a good impression of the people here.
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Mr. Pei you are talking about should be my father." He said politely.
After saying that, he handed the document in his hand to Lin Fu.
Lin Fu took one look and a genuine smile appeared on his face. "...I'll take Comrade Pei to see Mr. Pei right away."
Hearing this, Pei Yuan and his son tightened their fingers and suddenly became nervous.
I haven't seen them for many years, and I don't know if my father (grandfather) blames them?!
