Having a tractor is so convenient. An Buqingbai was sent to pick up the newly sent-down educated youth. I heard that several other people who had been sent down to the countryside were also to be brought back.
An Qingbai informed Zhuang Zhimeng, and then he and An Baogen set off to the station to pick up the people. Of course, the oxcart went along as well, as the tractor probably couldn't carry everyone.
Upon arriving at the station, An Qingbai parked the tractor and waited for the educated youth to arrive. The oxcart followed shortly after.
An Qingbai didn't get off the tractor; he remained seated in the driver's seat, while An Baogen did get off.
After waiting for a while, the educated youth arrived one after another, carrying luggage and packages, some of them looking disheveled, their clothes wrinkled and their hair disheveled.
An Qingbai glanced at it and felt sorry for his Zhizhi. Was it the same when he went to the countryside, having to rely on himself for everything?
According to An Baogen's list, a total of 5 educated youths were sent down this time, 2 men and 3 women, as well as 3 other people who were sent down to the countryside.
Once everyone had arrived, he arranged for the educated youth to board the tractor and the other personnel to board the oxcart.
An Baogen said to the newly arrived educated youth, "You're really lucky! This tractor is a brand new one from our brigade, and you're the ones who got to ride in it! Last year, the educated youth who came to the countryside were still riding in oxcarts, those kinds!"
The newly arrived educated youth were initially reluctant to get on the tractor, but when they saw the oxcart that An Baogen pointed to, they decided to follow their hearts and all climbed onto the tractor.
An Qingbai got off the tractor driver's seat and helped the educated youth carry their luggage upstairs, without saying a word.
One reason was that they weren't familiar with each other, and the other was that he always remembered he had a girlfriend and always adhered to male virtues, but he never expected that someone would still have designs on him.
Once the educated youth and An Baogen were all on the tractor, An Qingbai started the tractor and headed towards the brigade, while the oxcart carried the sent-down personnel back.
A strikingly beautiful female educated youth named Bai Shuangxue asked An Baogen, "Captain, is the brigade far away?"
An Baogen is in a good mood right now. Picking up the people went smoothly, and this time he didn't encounter any picky people. He also patiently answered the questions asked by the educated youth. "It's not far. It takes less than half an hour for a tractor to get to the village!"
Bai Shuangxue estimated in her mind that she was quite satisfied. She had heard that some of the rural locations were very far away, taking two hours to reach the brigade area.
Bai Shuangxue sat on the tractor, looking around. When she turned her head, she inadvertently saw An Qingbai driving the tractor from behind.
Her heart pounded. Remembering the handsome face she'd glimpsed while moving her luggage, she suddenly felt a surge of anticipation for going to the countryside. She wondered if he had a girlfriend; she planned to find out. Hopefully, he didn't, then she…
The villagers had already gathered in small groups, eagerly anticipating what would happen. It was the first time anyone had been sent down to the village, and they were all very curious to see what the person being sent down looked like.
Zhuang Zhimeng also joined in the fun, waiting in the crowd with Jiang Yanxia.
A moment later, the sound of a tractor came from the village. The villagers all looked towards the village entrance, only to find that the tractor was full of educated youth. They glanced at it and moved on. They had seen many educated youth before, so it was nothing new.
An Qingbai dropped off the educated youth and An Baogen at the educated youth settlement, then parked the tractor at the brigade headquarters and went to find Zhuang Zhimeng, whom he had just caught a glimpse of.
Zhuang Zhimeng was chatting with Jiang Yanxia and didn't notice An Qingbai coming over. Jiang Yanxia saw him and winked at her. Zhuang Zhimeng turned around and saw him, and asked him, "Brother Qingbai, what brings you here? Have all the educated youths been sent to the educated youth settlement?"
"Yes, I saw you when I passed by the village entrance just now. After sending all the educated youth over, there was nothing left for me, so I came over!"
"Oh, did Brother Qingbai see the people being sent down when he picked them up?"
"I saw three people. They didn't have much luggage and looked pretty bad. It seems one of them was injured! Are you curious, Zhizhi?"
"Hmm, I'm quite curious. If you don't have anything else to do, come and look around with me."
"good."
After putting her luggage away at the educated youth settlement, Bai Shuangxue couldn't wait to come out and find An Qingbai, wanting to talk to him and learn more about him.
There were so many people surrounding her when she entered the village, so she felt she should be able to find someone at the village entrance.
When she arrived at the village entrance, she actually found him, but her good mood plummeted in an instant. She saw a young and beautiful woman next to An Qingbai, and she could tell from his affectionate eyes that they were a couple.
Bai Shuangxue never expected that her love would end so abruptly before it even began. She no longer had the courage to continue watching; she was afraid she would rush over and return to the educated youth settlement in a daze.
Zhuang Zhimeng sensed that someone was watching them, so she turned her head and saw Bai Shuangxue turning around in a daze.
An Qingbai noticed Zhuang Zhimeng's gaze and asked her, "What's wrong, Zhizhi? What are you looking at?"
Zhuang Zhimeng pointed it out to him, "That should be the educated youth you just brought back, right? I felt like she was looking at us, so I took a look, but there was nothing there!"
An Qingbai also turned his head to look, but only saw Bai Shuangxue's back. He had no idea that picking someone up would make her think about him. All his thoughts were on Zhuang Zhimeng, and he had no interest in what others thought.
After a while, the oxcart carrying the people being sent down to the countryside arrived. The villagers all looked over at the same time, and Zhuang Zhimeng's gaze also focused on the oxcart. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure and froze.
An Qingbai noticed that something was wrong with her. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he asked her softly, "Zhizhi, what's wrong? Do you know the people on the oxcart?"
Zhuang Zhimeng snapped out of her daze and hurriedly whispered to An Qingbai, "It's nothing! There are too many people around now, let's talk about it later!"
The Shang Jingshu on the oxcart was no longer the spirited man Zhuang Zhimeng knew. Blood was flowing from his feet, one of his sleeves was torn off, his hair was disheveled, his face was full of despair, and his body was hunched over, no longer as upright.
