Chapter 8 On the Road
The next morning, Tang Yue woke up very early. After brushing her teeth and washing her face, she didn't put on anything. Thinking about the smell of the train ride for several days, she thought, it would be better to be refreshing.
I had a bag of bread and a bottle of milk for breakfast, and wore a long-sleeved white shirt with black trousers. There was nothing I could do about it because the times were conservative, so if I wore a short-sleeved shirt outside, I would be drowned in saliva.
The original owner had small feet and wore size 35 shoes. Tang Yue originally wore size 38 feet. Tang Yue didn't like her previous big feet. Now after traveling through time, her feet have become smaller. She would laugh in her dreams. She found a pair of size 35 leather shoes and put them on. She felt so happy and showed off.
After leaving the hospital, Tang Yue fed the livestock and picked up eggs with her mind, then controlled the river to make it rain lightly. She also used her mind to pick up a lot of sweet potato vines and threw them into the river to feed the fish. After finishing all the work, Tang Yue silently recited to herself before leaving.
I returned to the bedroom in an instant and saw that it was already 5:30 in the morning. I took out my luggage, put a backpack on my back, and carried two bags in each hand. I walked to the door easily without any burden, put all the luggage at the gate, turned around to lock the door, turned around and walked on the main road in front of me with my luggage to wait for the bus.
The train station is a bit far from home, and it takes an hour to take the bus. After waiting for more than a few minutes, the bus came. It was still early, and there were not many people on the bus. When Tang Yue got on, many people looked at her, but no one dared to talk to her. After more than an hour's ride, she finally arrived at the train station.
I found the office of the Youth League, walked up to it quickly, handed in my certificate, and after getting the train ticket, I was asked to wait nearby.
There were already some educated youth who had arrived earlier, a man and a woman. When Tang Yue walked over, the woman's face looked a little unhappy. Did the two of them have a quarrel? The three of them stood aside and no one spoke.
Several educated youth came one after another. Tang Yue knew that this person's face was that of a vixen, so she didn't say anything.
"Wang Zhi, where is the place where you go to the countryside? See if there are any of us in the same place as you." Someone was chatting nearby, and seeing Tang Yue standing there alone, he asked kindly.
Unexpectedly, there was a female educated youth muttering to herself nearby. No one knew what she was saying, but Tang Yue pretended not to hear. After all, beautiful women were envied. There were a total of educated youth, seven women and eight men. Their destinations were all Hongqi Commune, or the two richest brigades in the commune, Hongqi Brigade and Hongxing Brigade. It seemed that these educated youths all came from relatively well-off families.
Because there have been cases of missing educated youth in the past, and no one knew whether they had escaped or not, now the educated youth are all in the same carriage, with people from the educated youth office guarding in front and behind, and they will be sent to their destination and then returned. This is really thoughtful, and at least their safety is guaranteed.
The Red Flag Brigade was divided into male and female groups. They were a male and a female who arrived before Tang Yue, Xu Kai and Zhang Mei, and Zhang Jianguo, Liu Wen, Xiao Jun, Zhao Yingying, and Zhu Xiaoqin who arrived later. Zhang Jianguo and Xiao Jun were 1.8 meters tall and had been in the army from their station credentials. Liu Wen was about 1.7 meters tall and wore glasses, looking very educated. Xu Kai was 1.7 meters tall and also looked fair-skinned. The three girls were all above 1.6 meters but below 1.6 meters. Among the girls, Tang Yue was the shortest, only 1.6 meters tall, but Tang Yue was very satisfied with this height, petite and exquisite.
When Tang Yue was observing others, others were actually observing her too. She was so beautiful that she could be spotted at first glance in the crowd. She also had a good temperament and was like a crane standing out among chickens.
Tang Yue knew that her appearance was not popular in this era. Nowadays, people prefer round faces, fat bodies and big butts. But fortunately, everyone knows how to appreciate beautiful things. There is a word called "face lover". It seems that the conditions of this batch of educated youth are very good. Looking at the watches on everyone's wrists, you can tell that the train arrived at the station less than half an hour after everyone introduced themselves.
A male educated youth stepped forward to help carry Li, but was rejected by Tang Yue. Tang Yue carried her things and walked towards the train. The people around her looked at her in amazement.
This was Tang Yue's purpose, to let people know that she was not the kind of delicate young lady, nor the kind of person who was easy to bully. Although her face looked more like that, the male educated youth next to her who had just wanted to help looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed.
He found his seat, at the innermost part, stuffed his luggage on top, held the backpack on his back, and sat in his seat. Soon, the seats next to him were filled with people, and everyone stared at Tang Yue.
Tang Yue thought that she didn't know unless she called their names, so she just let them stare at her. In the end, it was Zhao Yingying who asked first, "How did you lift so many things just now?" Although the others didn't say it out loud, they all nodded.
"She is very strong," Tang Yue answered. Zhang Yingying looked at Tang Yue's face and felt disillusioned when she thought of her strength. The other educated youth felt the same way.
After showing some strength, the atmosphere in the carriage was quite good. After all, no one wanted to take care of a delicate young lady on the train.
It takes three hours by train to get from Beijing to the countryside, and it is also inconvenient to go to the toilet. When reading novels, those who have golden fingers will enter the space to take a shower and eat in the toilet.
When Tang Yue saw it, she thought, "I entered the space from somewhere, and I came out from the same place. This is true, but the train was moving, so Tang Yue couldn't understand how I could still be on the train after I came out.
And after riding a few trains, everyone else smells bad, but you take a nice shower. Don’t you know that everyone in this era has a sharp eye?
Since getting on the train, Tang Yue has been a little excited. She finally has the chance to witness the legendary tide of one million educated youth. She wonders if there are any mountains near the Red Flag Brigade, and how high they are. She wants to dig wild vegetables and hunt, which is something Tang Yue has never experienced before. She is happy just thinking about it. She thinks of the novels she has read before, which all say that educated youth are a hindrance. Tang Yue silently encourages herself and strives to achieve full centimeters.
It was dinner time, and everyone had brought out their meals. The meals were really good, including steamed buns, rice, braised pork, and fish. Tang Yue was relatively low-key. Knowing everyone's meals, Tang Yue felt more relieved.
While eating, they talked about why they went to the countryside. Zhang Jianguo and Xiao Jun were brothers from the same compound. They were good friends and did not want to join the army or get married too early, so they signed up together to go to the countryside.
Xu Kai and Zhang Mei are a couple. Zhang Mei's father is about to be promoted, and he wants to compete for advancement, so he signed up for Zhang Mei. Xu Kai came with his girlfriend. Fortunately, when they came, both sides met each other's parents and got engaged.
Liu Wen, Zhu Xiaoqin, and Zhao Yingying were the youngest children in the family. Their older brothers and sisters all had jobs or were married. Fortunately, their families were well-off and would send them money every month. Now it was Tang Yue's turn.
Tang Yue said, "My parents were soldiers and died. My grandparents also passed away. There is no one at home. I want to go to the countryside to make contributions. Besides, I am strong and not afraid of hardship." When others heard Tang Yue say this, they were all in awe.
Zhu Xiaoqin quietly asked everyone on the side, "Do you know the situation of the educated youth sites? I heard from the educated youth of previous sessions that the educated youth sites can live in a separate room." It seems that everyone is well-informed and knows that the team leader is very smart. Once the houses are built, the educated youth attracted are all in relatively good conditions. Moreover, when the houses are rented out, the team will earn more money, and the members can get more money, so they are more welcoming to the educated youth.
After dinner, everyone was chatting or reading. Tang Yue saw that everyone was busy, so she closed her eyes and leaned on the table pretending to sleep. She entered the space with her mental power and first fed the pigs, cows and sheep with sweet potato vines and added some sweet potatoes as a snack. Fortunately, a one-meter-wide ditch was dug inside the fence to facilitate the animals to drink water without drowning them. She fed all the rabbits with radishes, and when the rabbits gave birth again, she moved them all to the orchard. After feeding the rabbits, she walked to the other side to feed the chickens, ducks and geese, and fed them rice and corn kernels, hoping that they would lay more eggs.
Put more sweet potato vines to feed the fish in the river. Fortunately, there is no need to clean the space by herself. The feces of the animals will be immediately digested by the space and turned into nutrients for the fields. Otherwise, Tang Yue would collapse if she had to clean the space by herself.
Tang Yue used her mental power to inspect the space and land, and found that there were three meters of river beaches on each side of the river, with a length of more than 10 meters. She thought that it could not be wasted, so she thought about what to do. I got it. I heard that the mountain products in the Northeast are quite famous. When the time comes, I can dig up small saplings and plant them. Hazel and pine trees are quite excited just thinking about it.
It is inconvenient that there is no toilet in the space. When we get to the countryside, we will cut some bamboo and build one. The garbage generated in the space can be absorbed by the space.
After finishing the work, she didn't want to go out, so she used her mental power to play TV series. The costumes and hair accessories in the TV series were very beautiful, as well as the palace fighting and intrigue. Tang Yue thought that if she traveled to the ancient palace, she might be the kind of cannon fodder that would not survive more than three episodes. It was very tiring to watch the show with mental power. After watching for two hours, she was ready to go out.
Tang Yue opened her eyes and looked at the Plum Blossom watch on her wrist. It was almost time.
Zhang Yingying saw Tang Yue woke up and said, "You slept for a long time. Didn't you sleep well yesterday?"
Tang Yue had no choice but to reply, "I packed my things yesterday, and I was so excited about going to the countryside that I didn't sleep well."
Zhu Xiaoqin next to her added, "It seems that you really want to go to the countryside. You have a very high level of ideological awareness."
Tang Yue felt that she was not worthy of her praise. She knew her own situation and said, "The ideological awareness of those who go to the countryside nowadays is not high. Although we cannot make much contribution, it is no problem for us to not hold the country back."
When Zhang Mei heard Tang Yue say this, she said, "You are not bad."
After hearing what Zhang Mei said, Tang Yue actually felt flattered. It was because this girl had never spoken to anyone else except Xu Kai since she got on the car.
After getting along with them for a while, Tang Yue found that everyone was easy to get along with, and there was no problem with their character. There was no such thing as a bad person. When reading novels, the protagonist would fight with the bad grandparents, uncles, aunts, and neighbors, and even the mistress. Two-thirds of the book was about fighting. When reading it, she felt that the violence was too strong. Although bad people are inevitable in reality, there are not so many of them, and you just happen to meet them all. Then your character and luck are too bad to meet such people.
Tang Yue hadn't used the toilet yet, so she asked if anyone wanted to go with her. Everyone said they had been, so she had to go alone. Fortunately, the toilet didn't smell too strong. This is an old-fashioned train, and the pipes under the toilet are connected. People go to the toilet on the upper part, and the lower part falls directly on both sides of the rails. That's why the grass on both sides of the rails is lush. This is also the reason why the crew will lock the door when the train enters the city. After using the toilet and washing her hands, she was ready to go out, but someone was already knocking on the door from the outside.
