Three years later, Han Wanying had a very harmonious relationship with the people in the village and had integrated into the village.
Han Wanying's life was getting better and better. She gained some weight and was no longer the skinny little girl she was at the beginning.
Han Wanying's appearance has also grown up. She has a pretty face, fair skin, eyes like water apricots, lips that are red without any makeup, and eyebrows that are green without any painting.
When people in the village saw Han Wanying's appearance, some people had been trying to match her up with others since she was not even 15 years old. With her good looks and great strength, people from the surrounding villages wanted her to be their daughter-in-law, but Han Wanying refused them all.
Han Wanying was having breakfast that day when she heard someone knocking on the door.
"Han girl, Han girl, open the door quickly."
When Han Wanying heard Captain Wang's voice, she hurried over to open the door. Seeing that Captain Wang's face was not very good, she said in a concerned tone: "Uncle Wang, what's the matter? What do you want from me?" Han Wanying had been here for three years, and her language had changed unconsciously.
Uncle Wang touched the pipe at his waist and said, "This year, the commune arranged for some educated youth to go to the countryside. They arrived today. We were notified a few days ago, and they were already on the bus. We couldn't do anything about it. We've been arranging things for them for the past two days, and just remembered that they're arriving today."
Han Wanying estimated that they would probably arrange people to stay in the old house in front. After all, there were no other empty houses in the village. The villagers would also have objections if they were arranged in their homes. After all, although her own commune did not arrange any educated youth, there were many educated youth arranged in the surrounding communes, and these educated youth had caused a lot of trouble over the years.
Thinking of this, Han Wanying knew why Captain Wang looked so bad when he came over just now.
Captain Wang then spoke again, "But I happen to have some work to do at the grain station, so I thought I'd ask you to go to the station and meet Lao Zhang. We'll leave them at the house in front, and you can just take them there. I'll come back tomorrow to arrange the rest. I'd like you to cook them a welcome meal at noon. Don't worry, the food is from the village, so I'll just have to cook it. Don't worry about it tonight, I'll ask your aunt to take care of it. As for today's work points, you'll be given 20."
Han Wanying thought that the work points for a day were only 10, so recording 20 would be fine. Then she thought that it was time for her to go to the county today, so she agreed.
"Okay, Uncle Le, leave it to me."
Uncle Wang nodded and said, "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
The decision to call Han Wanying to pick someone up was naturally discussed by the villagers. First, this girl is very strong, even some adult men cannot compare to her. Second, this girl has a good image. There is no girl prettier than this girl in the surrounding villages. Calling her out will bring honor to the village. She is both good-looking and capable.
The village cadres all felt that Han Wanying was the most suitable candidate.
Han Wanying cooked the rice in the pot first. When Captain Wang left, he gave Han Wanying a pound of tickets and money and asked her to go to the county to buy some meat. Han Wanying packed up her things and went to the village entrance.
When Han Wanying arrived, the oxcart was already waiting. Han Wanying hurried over and called out to the rider, "Grandpa Zhang."
Grandpa Zhang, also known as Old Zhang mentioned by Captain Wang, is an elderly widower in the village. His son died of illness, and his daughter-in-law remarried, so Captain Wang arranged for him to drive the ox cart.
Old Zhang said kindly: "Why are you running so fast, girl? There's no rush. It's still early for us to go." Old Zhang liked this girl very much. She was pretty, capable and polite. It was a pity that he had no grandson, otherwise he would definitely match them up.
Han Wanying smiled and replied, "It's okay. Don't you want to stay with me for a while?"
The two of them went to the county with smiles on their faces.
Arriving at the station, Han Wanying said to Lao Zhang: "Grandpa Zhang, the captain asked me to buy something. I'm going to go buy something first. Can you stay here by yourself?"
Lao Zhang smiled and said, "Why not? Go quickly and leave me alone."
Han Wanying first went to the place where she met Lao Wu to put the things, and then left a mark at the door. The cooperation between the two has been established for a long time over the years. From then on, Han Wanying would put the goods here, and then leave a mark at the door. They would come to pick them up and settle the bill later.
After doing all this, Han Wanying went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy meat. After thinking about it, she also bought some cakes, and then went to the state-owned restaurant to pack a portion of braised pork and 20 buns.
Then she went to find Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang looked at the things Han Wanying was carrying and was surprised that Captain Wang had made such good arrangements to welcome the educated youth.
Han Wanying took out a bun and handed it to Lao Zhang, who quickly refused, saying, "Girl, this isn't nice. This is for the educated youth. How can I eat it?"
Han Wanying knew that Lao Zhang had misunderstood when she heard it, and said with a smile: "I bought this, you can eat it without worry, only the meat is prepared for the educated youth."
Old Zhang wanted to refuse after hearing this, but Han Wanying forced one into his mouth. Old Zhang had no choice but to accept it. After all, these days a meat bun not only requires money but also a ticket, and not everyone can afford it.
