For the time being, only the Xiao family of three were sent down to Xinghua Village.
There were only two educated youths sent to the countryside: Bai Yunshu and Xiao Che.
It's not that there weren't people sent down to the countryside in Shanghai, but it's difficult to arrange for them to come to Xinghua Village unless the village itself is willing to accept them, otherwise there will be endless trouble.
Therefore, the commune leaders, adhering to the principle of "the less trouble, the better," rarely or never sent people to this area.
Therefore, Xiao Che contacted this side first before reporting the address to the old marshal and asking him to help make arrangements.
On the day the Xiao family arrived, the village chief and the brigade leader asked everyone to go to the threshing ground to welcome them.
The sound from the loudspeaker echoed throughout the village.
"Attention everyone, attention everyone, a group of people being sent down to our village will be arriving soon. It turns out to be a leader from the Kyoto Military Region. If you are free, please go to the threshing ground to greet them."
The village chief dared to say that because so many children from Xinghua Village had gone to the military region, they all felt a sense of closeness to soldiers. Now that the old leaders of the Kyoto Military Region had come, regardless of the disputes at higher levels or what their class status had changed, they only believed in one principle: soldiers are all national heroes!
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this.
"Is it really that chaotic outside? Even the old commander has been demoted?"
"Hey, I went to the city to buy a dowry for my child before, and I saw it. All those former high-ranking officials were being forced to kneel in the square and be criticized!"
"It's more than that! The city is still in chaos. Traffic is paralyzed, and factory workers aren't working. Some are hiding, and others are causing trouble!"
Everyone gathered together and chatted excitedly.

Not only the Xiao family members came, but also the Red Guards from the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League.
After the people from Kyoto delivered the person and completed the handover, they left.
Meanwhile, the Red Guards here are feeling quite smug, after all, they have brought down the bigwigs in Shanghai.
Therefore, their attitude towards the Xiao family was extremely hostile.
The community leaders were helpless, but when they thought of Xinghua Village, they pulled the young leader aside and gently persuaded him for a few words.
"Young man, Xinghua Village is no ordinary place. You should leave as soon as you drop them off. Don't linger, and don't cause any trouble..." There are no spineless people in Xinghua Village. Apart from the younger generation, everyone there has blood on their hands.
Moreover, about half of the families have children in the military, so who would be so tactless as to provoke them?
But before he could finish speaking, the man impatiently waved his hand and said, "Hey~ look at what you're saying. No matter how extraordinary they are, aren't they just some country bumpkins? Alright, alright, let's go, we still have a long way to go!"
The leader, seeing that they didn't care at all and continued to do things their own way, could only shake his head helplessly.
Watching them leave, he muttered to himself, "Still too young..."
After arriving in Shanghai, Xiao Che was persuaded by Commander Xiao to hide in the shadows.
He followed behind the Red Guards the whole way.
Upon arriving at Xinghua Village, these people escorted the Xiao family members directly to the threshing ground.
The village chief and the brigade leader looked grim after they met the person at the village entrance.
They then went with them to the threshing ground.
The leader, seeing that everyone was waiting, had a satisfied look on his face.
"Great job, you did a great job. It saved us a lot of trouble."
The village chief and the brigade leader just smiled faintly, too lazy to respond to him.
Anyone would feel bad seeing a former veteran being tormented like this.
