The village accountant was using a loudspeaker to shout today, "Come on over, it's a meeting! Hurry up, hurry up!"
Tingting's home is a bit far away, but seeing that everyone in the village is heading there, Jianjun told Tingting to stay home and rest while he went to check on the situation.
Today I want to tell everyone that educated youth will soon be coming to our village to help us. There are no extra houses in the village, so everyone should help build them.
"What are educated youth? What are they here for?" everyone asked, puzzled.
Knowledgeable and learned young people are here to help us, to help harvest and plant grain, and to learn our spirit of hard work and perseverance.
Alright, everyone get ready. We'll start choosing a place to build houses tomorrow, so that when people come, they won't have nowhere to stay.
People around him started whispering. Jianjun knew it was about to begin, and thought he'd wait and see where they chose tomorrow.
"Honey, you're back. What kind of meeting did you have?"
"They said some educated youth are coming, and we need to choose a place to build houses tomorrow, but our village doesn't have any extra space."
"I'll start packing in the next couple of days, first tidying up all the things in the house. Then, when we're choosing a location, you can also take a look around the area; it's best if it's not near here."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll go tomorrow and see what's going on."
Qin Yecai was also surprised. Did this mean that the environment was going to become complicated again? Why would city people not come here to enjoy their good life? Qin Yecai was quite clever.
“Tianming, there are educated youth coming to the village. I think things will get more complicated. Who knows how many people will actually come? More people means more trouble. Pack up everything you can at home.”
Okay, wild vegetables, I'll listen to you, but it's better to be careful. I also feel something's a bit off.
(No one should say that ancient people were not as smart as modern people. Qin Yecai is a good example. She can draw inferences from one instance to another when observing things.)
The next day, these people were in a great hurry, ready to find out where to build houses.
"Now that everyone's here, let's discuss where to build the house. After all, we've only arranged for four people so far, and there are others from other villages, but more people will come later, so the place can't be too small."
Qin Yecai retorted to Liu Tianming, "Say something! We can't live too far from the village. It's inconvenient for us to do anything if we live too far away."
Liu Tianming understood what Ye Cai meant when he heard her say, "Captain, I think the house shouldn't be built too far from the village. It's inconvenient to work there, and it would be better if they could help each other out if anything happens."
"When Jianjun saw them say that, he had the same idea. Captain, we can't build it too far away from the village. Firstly, there are men and women here, and it would be difficult to talk about if it were too far away."
"Besides, they're so far away, we don't even know what they're doing, and it's inconvenient for them to go to work."
That makes sense. Let's live on that slope in our village; there's a big place there.
The Qin family lived right next to this big slope. Their house burned down back then, and they didn't rebuild it because they were worried about the money.
Grandma Qin was quite happy. After all, her eldest grandson had lost his wife because of what happened last time. She felt that the arrival of the educated youth was a good opportunity, since only city people could be a good match for her grandson, and she could even benefit from it.
Everyone has their own ulterior motives, and they're all happy to achieve their goals.
Alright, everyone get to work and get it built as soon as possible to contribute to our village.
