This was arguably the most chaotic period.
Not only were there Red Guards causing trouble everywhere.
And those human traffickers are extremely brazen, always taking advantage of the chaos at this time.
Moreover, these human traffickers prefer to operate on trains, where there is a mix of people, and they target young women and children.
A pretty girl like Chen Xinyue, especially when she's traveling alone, is more likely to become a target for those people.
Knowing these circumstances, Lin Jingyu dared not and was not at ease letting her go on a long trip alone.
So she made a decision directly, "It's settled then, Brother Lu will accompany you next month. I'll let Brother Lu know when I have time to go to the county town."
“I’m afraid Brother Lu won’t be able to leave.”
Chen Xinyue did not object to the suggestion, saying, "Sister-in-law Lu and Xiaobao need him to take care of them."
"Leaving for ten days to half a month should be fine."
Lin Jingyu thought for a moment and then said, "If Brother Lu really can't get away, we'll think of other ways. At worst, we can find someone else to take you there."
"Well, we'll see when the time comes."
Chen Xinyue nodded.
Seeing the remittance stamp in her hand, she smiled and said, "Jingyu, my older brother said it's not convenient for him to send me too much money right now."
We, the Chen family, will always remember your care and kindness, and we will repay you in the future.
He sent me two hundred yuan this time. Besides giving me travel expenses, the rest is for you to live on. I hope you won't refuse.
"Why be so polite?"
Lin Jingyu frowned. "Take both of these hundred yuan with you. It's safer to carry more money when you're out and about, and it'll be easier to handle any unexpected situations."
"This is my brother's idea."
Chen Xinyue chuckled, "This little bit of money is nothing. It would be right to give you more money."
It's just inconvenient to send too much money, to avoid causing trouble.
Besides.
We'll keep in touch.
"Of course I'll contact them."
Lin Jingyu smiled sweetly, "We've agreed to be friends for life."
When we're old and gray, we can still get together to eat, drink, and have fun.
"Of course."
Chen Xinyue's expression was firm as she solemnly made her promise.
Peng Shiyu and Yang Shujue nodded in unison.
Next.
Lin Jingyu read the letter sent by Peng Qibo.
Seeing the contents of his letter...
I feel warm in my heart.
I also told her that the troops needed medicine, because there were so many wounded people and supplies were being used up quickly.
However, he did not ask her to go to Lu Qingyang.
Instead, she was told that she couldn't ignore it, but should try not to get involved, especially since matters concerning the military were more important and needed to be kept secret. She was just a young girl, and getting involved in too many things wouldn't do her any good.
If she's not careful, she might be targeted by someone with ulterior motives, who could easily label her and make it difficult for her to explain herself.
Lin Jingyu knew that he cared about her and valued her safety.
They were terrified that something might happen that would affect them.
At this moment.
Lin Jingyu couldn't help but admire Lu Qingyang.
He saw through everything.
Even regarding the intrigue and violence within the military, he could guess a bit about it.
She didn't want to get involved.
Unfortunately, some people are unwilling.
People who were given the task but couldn't complete it came knocking on our door.
The appearance of the jeep in the village and its arrival at the former educated youth compound once again attracted a lot of attention.
"Uncle Li is here?"
Upon hearing this news, Lin Jingyu and Peng Shiyu exchanged bewildered glances.
They quickly welcomed the people in.
"Uncle Li, what brings you here at this hour?"
Lin Jingyu brewed him a pot of tea and asked directly, "Did something happen?"
Actually, I had some guesses about his arrival.
"Nothing serious."
Li Anning didn't speak directly, but said with a smile, "I also came to see how you're doing in the village."
We are all fine.
Lin Jingyu responded with a smile, "We were the most relaxed of the educated youth who taught at the school."
"I haven't thanked you yet for having Xiao Zhao bring back so many things last time."
Li Anning brought up another topic, "It tastes very good, and it doesn't look like cured pork made from home-raised pork, right?"
"Uncle Li is really amazing."
Peng Shiyu praised, "You can tell it's not from a domestic pig just by eating the cured meat. Our cured meat and sausages are made from wild boar meat, and most people can't tell the difference."
Li Anning laughed heartily, "I can only say that I have a discerning palate and can distinguish the taste between the two."
Su Jingtian and the others rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
After all, it is indeed somewhat inconvenient for only girls to serve male guests, even if they are elders.
Li Anning was not surprised by the arrival of Su Jingtian, He Zhenhua, and others.
He had already figured out the identities of the educated youth in Shuibu Village.
With male educated youths accompanying the guests, Lin Jingyu and others took the opportunity to go to the kitchen to cook.
It was already noon, so naturally we had to invite our guests to have lunch.
Li Anning didn't stand on ceremony with them.
He and Zhao Changping both stayed for lunch.
Faced with the delicious and diverse dishes before him, he finally understood why Peng Shiyu thought the food in their armed forces department was bad.
A pot of braised pork ribs with beans, a pot of braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens, a pot of fried potato chunks, and a pot of pickled cucumbers.
They ate until they were stuffed.
Before leaving.
Li Anning said to Lin Jingyu, "When we go to the county town later, invite Lu Qingyang out for dinner. We haven't properly thanked him for what happened last time."
