Shi Weihong's face flushed red, and she was fiddling with her long black braid in her hands, at a loss as to what to do.
"Xiao Min, oh, please stop making fun of me. What moon? I..."
"It's okay, it's okay. I didn't see anything. I was just strolling around. Now I'm going back to sleep!"
She pretended to cover her eyes and turned to leave, but Shi Weihong came forward and grabbed her arm.
Someone who is usually very straightforward suddenly became shy. After all, she is just a girl in her early twenties and is thin-skinned.
"Don't go. I have nothing to tell you. It's just that Xie Xuwei wants to date me, but I'm two years older than him. I'm a little..."
Lian Xiaomin looked at Shi Weihong's slightly frowned brows. Apart from her slightly dark skin, her appearance was quite consistent with the aesthetic of this era.
It's the image of a young girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes in the propaganda posters of that era. She looks energetic and has a kind of spirit that believes "labor is the most glorious."
She smiled and patted the other person's arm: "Sister Shi, there is an old saying that a woman who is three years older than her husband is more likely to bring gold bricks. It's nothing. Look at Yufang's eldest sister. She is also three years older than her eldest brother-in-law. This is not uncommon. She lives a good life."
"Besides, you two look like a good match. You can't even tell that you're two years older than me. What's the big deal? The main thing is, you have to think it over carefully. If you marry into a village family, then you won't be coming back to the city in the future?"
Shi Weihong also laughed when she saw Xiaomin was a little smart and spoke in a very coherent way.
"What city should I go back to? I'm already 23 years old. My family situation is complicated. How can I find a job? Anyway, it's impossible for me to go back. In fact, I also like him..."
Lian Xiaomin covered her mouth and laughed: "That's fine, I understand everything. I'm waiting for your wedding. Okay, go back quickly. I also have to go home to take care of the two little kids~"
Shi Weihong also knew that it was getting late, so the two of them said nothing more and went back separately.
Lian Xiaomin walked home under the moonlight. That night, she was still thinking that Xie Xuwei and Shi Weihong were quite a good match.
The Xie family lived in Sandaogou and had relatively good conditions. At least they had never gone without food, and the family was quite harmonious. The only problem was that there were too many people, and Xie Xuwei had a host of younger brothers and sisters.
Being the eldest sister-in-law has to endure hardships and hard work, which is not easy. However, mother-in-law Zhang Xianglan is a good person. Overall, Sister Shi is a good choice.
Shi Weihong has a cheerful personality, and it is good for her to marry into this village. She has been in Sandaogou for quite a long time and is familiar with everything.
In this era, a 23-year-old girl is not young anymore, and finding a reliable and capable man like Xie Xuwei is a good ending for her.
After all, she knew that it was only 69 years and there was still a lot of time to go.
According to the historical process of the previous life, the large-scale return of educated youth to the city only began from the end of 1978 to 1979.
Before that, most of these educated youth from the city did not have the ability to ask their families to transfer them back, so even if they really wanted to settle down in Sandagou, they would have to live there for a long time.
She thought of Xie Jiao again, and wondered if that little hot pepper and Lin Youshu would also become a couple.
In this special historical context, the experiences and stories of the educated youth are truly heartbreaking.
They left their hometowns and went to the countryside to settle down.
However, this period of history is full of ups and downs, and only those involved can truly experience the bitterness, sweetness, sorrow, joy, and separation.
………………………………
At the end of September, in the cool autumn breeze, the autumn harvest finally kicks off!
Men, women, young and old, as long as they were able to work on the ground, everyone in the Sandaogou Production Team threw themselves wholeheartedly into this vigorous battle.
In the fields, the golden rice ears were bent with their weight.
Over on the other side of the sorghum field, the red sorghum was like a burning flame, illuminating half the sky red... Everywhere was a busy scene.
The team members waved sickles to harvest crops, stacked the harvested crops neatly aside, and were continuously transported away by the people in charge of transportation.
Even the children ran between the ridges of the fields to help transport food.
Lian Xiaomin's team no longer had Yu Lei and Pei Ziqiu, but had been supplemented by three new educated youth.
Ye Shuhui was led by Shi Weihong to work, while Zhong Min and Shen Yuanchao were led by Lin Youshu and Li Chuang.
Over the past month, everyone has worked hard from dawn to dusk.
This year's harvest is better than last year's. After the public grain is paid, the production team will distribute the grain and there will not be nothing left.
In the blink of an eye, it was mid-November. On the 16th, Xie Xuwei and Shi Weihong got their marriage certificate. The Xie family organized the wedding and brought the bride home with great fanfare.
Mainly because the whole family is anxious, hoping that Xie Xuwei can get a wife soon, put aside all the bad things in the past, and live a good life.
Such a good young man was harmed by the family in Chengjiazhuang, but now, marrying an educated youth from the city is also a very face-saving thing.
Xie Xuwei didn't know what happened. Later, he didn't like any of the girls introduced to him by the matchmaker. In fact, he had already fallen in love with Shi Zhiqing. He thought she had a cheerful personality, was honest, and was very simple.
When he was working in the fields, he noticed this girl. She always finished her own work and helped others. She was a kind-hearted person. After a few visits, he became familiar with her.
So I had this person in my heart silently, and finally I mustered up the courage, confessed my feelings successfully, and was able to marry her home.
After Shi Weihong got married from the educated youth camp, her family didn't treat her very well. They didn't send her anything, let alone money or bills.
Everyone seemed to understand why she was determined to marry in the village and not go back to the city.
