However, Han Wanying sneered in her heart. This man must have thought that he was very smart and did not consider that this was a vote. He would offend all the villagers present by doing this. Even if he could participate, it would be useless because no one would be willing to vote for him.
The aunt was speechless after hearing what Zhao Tao said. She didn't dare to say that she was dissatisfied with the country's policies, so she simply didn't argue with Zhao Tao.
He said to the team leader, "Anyway, I don't agree with the team leader sending these educated youth to take our places. If it's them, I won't recognize it."
The team leader also didn't want the educated youth to join in. After all, these educated youth had only been here for less than a year, and many things happened last year because of these educated youth. But if he didn't let them participate, then he, as the team leader, would be labeled as dissatisfied with the national policy.
However, when the team leader saw that the villagers below all expressed opposition to the participation of these educated youth, he felt relieved and spoke to everyone.
"Okay, everyone, listen to me. Since these educated youth have come to our village, they are our people. Of course, they can participate in the vote. Of course, if everyone is willing to vote for them, they can also get this quota. Anyway, this quota is obtained by everyone's vote. Whoever you think is qualified can be voted for."
The villagers also realized that even if the educated youth participated, they would be the ones voting, and as long as they did not vote for them, their participation would not affect anything.
After the villagers understood the situation, they stopped talking and tacitly agreed that the educated youth could participate.
Then it started. Those who were willing to participate came forward to introduce themselves. All the junior high school graduates in the village came forward, but there were still only 5 people.
Among the educated youth, only Zhao Tao stepped forward. When Zhao Tao stepped forward, he saw that the other educated youth did not step forward, and he gave them a look that said, "You better know what's best for you."
He Ting whispered to Han Wanying, "Xiaoying, who do you think will get this spot?"
Han Wanying said calmly, "Scorer."
Han Wanying's tone was not speculation, but statement. He Ting listened to Han Wanying's tone and asked curiously, "Why?"
"Do you think this scorer has been working for nothing these years? If he wasn't here today, I wouldn't be so sure. But now that he's here, the result is very obvious." Han Wanying replied calmly.
He Ting still didn't understand and looked at Han Wanying with a puzzled look.
Han Wanying looked at He Ting and wanted to explain it to her mechanically, but the person next to her whispered, "Because he's the scorekeeper."
He Ting looked in the direction of the voice. It was Yan Shuojing who spoke. Han Wanying also turned her head and saw only Yan Shuojing, but not He Zhen. Han Wanying was a little surprised. Didn't the two of them always go in and out together? Why didn't she see him today?
Han Wanying was just thinking when a slender hand holding a bright red apple reached out to her. Han Wanying looked at the owner of the hand and found it was He Zhen.
He Zhen looked at Han Wanying and stretched his hand in front of her again, "Fresh apples, very sweet."
Han Wanying didn't want to accept it at first, but seeing He Zhen's focused eyes looking at her, she accepted the apple for some unknown reason.
He Zhen watched Han Wanying accept his apple, and a smile appeared on his usually calm face.
He Ting urged Yan Shuojing to continue.
Yan Shuojing could only continue, "Think about it, this scorekeeper is responsible for recording work points. Although these work points cannot be falsified, if you offend the scorekeeper, if he assigns you some difficult tasks, you still can't say anything. If he doesn't get the position, you can't do anything if he makes things difficult for you."
"Besides, if he is successfully elected, the scorekeeper position will be vacant, and the villagers' chances will be better. This position is easy and pays well. There are many people eyeing this position. Chen Junhua is also quite famous in the village, so it should be easy for him to be elected."
Sure enough, the final result was that Chen Junhua received the most votes, even more than twenty votes more than the second place.
He Ting gave Han Wanying a thumbs up.
After announcing the results, the team leader said, "Okay, now the results are in. Comrade Chen Junhua has been awarded the spot for the Worker-Peasant-Soldier University Student in our team. If there are no other objections, please disperse."
Zhao Tao looked at his bowl, which didn't contain a single soybean, and said in disbelief, "This isn't fair. Why isn't this place mine? This is discrimination. I don't agree. I have an opinion."
The captain looked at Zhao Tao, whose expression was grim, and a trace of annoyance flashed across his face. He said impatiently, "No one voted for Zhao Zhiqing. Shouldn't Zhao Zhiqing consider his own reasons? I remind you, Zhao Zhiqing, you have to work harder this year. You still owe the team work points. If you can't pay them back this year, we will consider whether you are still suitable to stay in our team tomorrow."
When the villagers heard what the team leader said, they couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yes, Zhao Zhiqing is still a man, and he doesn't even earn as many work points as my daughter Erya. I'm ashamed for you."
Zhao Tao's face turned red after being told that. He then gave the crowd a fierce look and quickly ran away.
The team leader looked at Zhao Tao's running back and snorted coldly. Then he looked at the villagers who were still discussing enthusiastically below, cleared his throat and said, "Okay, get to work quickly and stop chatting here."
After the crowd dispersed, the captain walked up to Han Wanying and the others, and Chen Junhua followed behind him.
The captain said to Han Wanying, "Han girl, I'll give your place to Comrade Chen Junhua."
Han Wanying nodded. Chen Junhua stepped forward and said to her with joy in his tone, "Thank you, Comrade Han, for giving me this opportunity."
Han Wanying shook her head and said to Chen Junhua distantly, "This is the result of the vote."
Han Wanying looked at He Ting who was watching the show nearby, and thought of something. She said to the team leader, "Team leader, this scorekeeper is going to college soon. I wonder if there are any arrangements for this scorekeeper's position?"
