After learning about them this morning, I found out that Xia Qingyu is only eighteen years old this year, and Manwen is only sixteen years old.
As for ordinary families, it depends on how far the child can go.
But for powerful families, even if they don't have the talent, it is necessary to use connections and spend money to gild their status.
It is always like this, even in special times.
Xia Qingyu paused while picking up the food, but quickly reacted.
"I'm a sophomore in high school this year, and Manwen got her diploma in the third year of junior high. My school also used connections to help her graduate early."
Given their backgrounds, they definitely won't be able to go to school.
Although their grandparents had donated a lot of money to support the anti-Japanese war, their class background was determined and they could not escape it.
As the daughter of a capitalist, his mother has the protection of his father who is in the army, but their family also has to be low-key.
If his father's political enemies were to take revenge on him, his mother might be demoted.
His parents decided to send them away early just in case they and their brother were implicated in the future.
Going to the countryside as an educated youth is better than being sent to a farm or a cowshed as the descendant of a bad element.
Xia Qingyu sighed in his heart.
His father had explained this matter clearly to him before he went to the countryside, and it was only a matter of time before he and his mother got together.
He could only try his best to use some of his previous relationships to protect the two siblings.
Before coming here this time, he brought most of the money in the family, but I don’t know what will happen in the future.
Looking at his sister who knew nothing and thought she would go back after staying in the countryside for two years, Xia Qingyu didn't know what to tell her when the time came.
Since Wang Daya and the others were there, Gu Zhenjiang didn't say anything.
Although Gu Zhen mentioned some things about the Xia family in his letter.
But Gu Zhenxing didn't read the letter, so he didn't know what was inside.
Since you didn't see it, then don't say anything about it. Of course, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better.
Maybe he could see that the brother and sister came here for something.
After lunch, Gu Zhenxing found an excuse to take Wang Daya away.
Wang Daya still didn't understand and wanted to learn more about what the south was like with her brother and sister. She had never left the courtyard in her life. The farthest she had been was a walk around the city with her son and daughter, and they would always come back.
This time she finally had the chance to hear about things in the distant city, so of course she didn't want to leave.
But in the end, I couldn't resist and could only follow him, looking back every few steps.
Gu Zhenjiang then handed the other letter inside the letter to the Xia brothers and sisters and said.
"This is the letter your father sent back to you. Take a look."
Xia Qingyu opened his eyes, frowned, took the letter and read it carefully.
Xia Qingyu's name was written on the letter, and Gu Zhenhai also said that it was for him, so Gu Zhenjiang did not open it to read it, and did not know what was written inside.
Manwen couldn't see the contents of the letter, and looked a little anxious as he spoke hurriedly.
"Brother, what did Dad say? Show me."
Urged by this, Xia Qingyu quickly read the letter at a glance, then handed it over and felt relieved.
It's okay, it's okay.
After such a long time, Xia Qingyu finally showed a relaxed smile and spoke to the concerned eyes of several people.
"Nothing. My dad told us to stay in the countryside first and then see if there's a chance to transfer us back."
If you want to be transferred back, you must be accepted by a unit, otherwise it will not work.
However, as long as Xia Zhengyi in the army is fine, nothing will happen to them if they stay in the countryside for the time being. After all, they have their families to help them and they don't have to worry about having a bad life.
Manwen was also happy, as long as she could go back. She had never left her parents' side since she was a child, and she was always worried.
Gu Zhenjiang handed the bills sent by Gu Zhenhai to Jiang Mengxue, asking her to pack some and take them back to the brother and sister.
They are all military supply tickets, which makes it more convenient to buy things.
Jiang Mengxue prepared some food coupons for them, as well as some bills for daily needs.
Although the farm is not too far from here, it is not very convenient to travel back and forth.
It’s better to give it to them and buy it yourself.
"Just go on as usual when you go back. I'll ask someone about the assignment of educated youth. If there's an opportunity in the future, I'll transfer you to our side."
After spending a whole day together, Xia Manwen was reluctant to leave.
She really enjoyed being with Jiang Mengxue this time, just like her own sister.
And Mobao is also very cute. She doesn't cry or make a fuss when she holds him in her arms, and even smiles at her.
It’s painful to think about going back and living in a house with a bunch of strangers.
But she also knew that now was not the time to be willful.
Their letter of introduction is only valid for one day, so they have to rush back today.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome if someone found out that the time on the letter of introduction was wrong when you go to the city to take a bus or do something else.
Before leaving, I packed a lot of things for the two of them.
They are all instant food, not very smelly, and convenient for two people to heat up and eat at any time.
After all, there are a lot of people in the Youth League Home, and it is definitely inconvenient to cook alone. It is better to make something simple.
I made a lot of dumplings at noon, filling two lunch boxes for two people, and also about ten rice dumplings, which would not go bad if frozen in winter.
There are also some snacks to fill your stomach when you are hungry.
I also brought them some snacks from home.
Li Cuiying and Gu Zhenjiang rode two bicycles to take the brother and sister to the commune to take the bus. Jiang Mengxue held Mo Bao and did not go out.
