Jiang Yiquan's proposal kept Liu Shengli awake the whole night.
As an educated and motivated young man who talks about revolutionary spirit every day, Liu Shengli thinks he is very well-educated!
How could he be as morally corrupt as Jiang Yiquan, a backward person who has no desire to make progress and is willing to degenerate!
But Liu Shengli still couldn't sleep well, his mind was full of Xu Shuzhen.
When Liu Shengli went to work the next day, he was a little dazed and spilled manure several times, getting it all over his shoes and pants.
Liu Shengli went home to change clothes at noon and happened to meet Xu Shuzhen.
"Shuzhen!" Liu Shengli walked over in surprise, "Didn't you cook breakfast this morning?"
Xu Shuzhen's eyes flashed with impatience, but she remained polite: "Since you didn't get up this morning, you can only come back early at noon to make it. I'll just heat up the pancake quickly."
Liu Shengli had a strong smell, so Xu Shuzhen subconsciously stood aside after she finished speaking.
"......I'll go back to my room first." Liu Shengli was rejected by his sweetheart and almost ran away.
Xu Shuzhen was a little annoyed. She had known Liu Shengli since school. It was not that she didn't understand what he meant, but she had no feelings for him at all.
What's more, she already has a partner.
Although they are now divided into two places far away from each other, Xu Shuzhen firmly believes that the feelings between them will not change and they will meet again sooner or later.
A sweet smile appeared on Xu Shuzhen's face. She decided to find time to write a letter to her partner and ask the captain to help mail it.
Liu Shengli changed his clothes and smelled carefully, but he still smelled bad. He didn't bother to be picky, so he just ate some leftovers from the morning and ran out to work with Xu Shuzhen.
Xu Shuzhen tried to keep a certain distance from him.
"Shuzhen, are you used to being here? We're destined to be together, and I'll definitely take care of you!" Liu Shengli said confidently, "You don't have to be polite with me. We used to be classmates!"
Xu Shuzhen smiled awkwardly. It’s because we are classmates and I know your character that I don’t want to talk to you much!
"Comrade Liu Shengli, I'm doing very well here. The villagers are taking great care of me. Qingshan Village is a good place. The team leader and secretary are also sensible. We should put all our enthusiasm and energy into supporting rural construction!" Xu Shuzhen said tactfully.
But Liu Shengli couldn't understand the inner meaning.
"Of course! I've always considered myself very capable and ambitious. Don't worry, Shuzhen, I'll show you what I can do!"
"......" Xu Shuzhen was speechless. You are so capable, why were you fired from the factory back then?
"Sister Shuzhen." A child's voice saved Xu Shuzhen from embarrassment.
Xu Shuzhen smiled and said, "Hello, little sister."
Fu Baoer strolled over here and saw that Liu Shengli was sticking to Xu Shuzhen like a piece of taffy. Suddenly, her sense of justice burst out: "Sister, can you take me home? I can't find my way home."
Liu Shengli's mouth twitched. You don't know the way, but does the dog also not know the way?
Besides, don’t think that everyone doesn’t know how familiar you are with the village! Liu Shengli felt that Fu Baoer was determined to go against him.
"Shuzhen, don't listen to her. She's very smart. How could she not find the way home?"
Fubaoer immediately started rubbing his eyes with his little hands and started crying with his mouth wide open.
"I just can't find it, I just can't find it!" Fu Baoer looked at Liu Shengli through the gaps between her fingers, admiring his ashen face.
"Don't pretend to cry!" Liu Shengli wanted to pull Fu Baoer's hand. There were definitely no tears on her face!
Xu Shuzhen stopped him, squatted down, picked up Fu Baoer, and mercilessly accused Liu Shengli: "She is only a two or three-year-old child. Why are you always so mean to her? Last time, the villagers were generous and didn't make a fuss about it. You should learn from your mistakes, restrain yourself, and don't bully a child for no reason."
Fu Baoer nodded vigorously, that's right, don't bully her.
"Hurry up and go to work. I'll ask the captain for leave later!"
Xu Shuzhen carried Fu Baoer and left without looking back, leaving Liu Shengli standing there, jumping with anger.
Fu Baoer must have had a grudge against him in his past life! Liu Shengli angrily kicked away the small stone under his feet, and not satisfied, he kicked the big tree next to him a few more times.
He didn't know why he just couldn't stand Fubaoer, she was just a two-year-old child!
"Sister Shuzhen, I actually remember the way home." Fu Baoer gestured for her to put him down, "I can walk by myself."
Xu Shuzhen laughed and scratched Fu Baoer's nose: "You are such a little devil."
"I'll take you to work! Let's go this way." Fu Baoer held Xu Shuzhen's hand. Wow, it was so soft, but in a few days, calluses would form on it. "Sister, why did you come here?"
Why not stay in the city and come here to be a farmer? Fu Baoer knew that many people actually didn't like the countryside.
Xu Shuzhen felt that Fu Baoer was very talented, and she would not give up on communicating with her just because she was young. "The countryside is a vast world where you can achieve great things. This is what our chairman said. Sister Baoer, I want to contribute to the country and want to come to the countryside to receive a brand new education. If possible, I am willing to teach everything I know to the villagers of Qingshan Village without reservation!"
"Bao'er, you're still young and may not understand this. The countryside and the city are two completely different places. Whether it's ideas, living habits, or even the very important education, they all urgently need integration and complementarity. The Chairman said that we intellectuals shouldn't be high and mighty. It's the countryside that supports the development of the city. We should return to the countryside and do what we can!"
Although Fu Baoer didn't quite understand, she was infected by the yearning and passion on Xu Shuzhen's face, "I support you, Sister Shuzhen!"
"Look at me, why am I telling you so much, Baoer? When you grow up, you must study hard, go to school, and work hard to repay the hometown that gave birth to you and this vast land of New China!"
Fu Baoer nodded. She understood that people of this era, having experienced hardships and sufferings, loved their motherland especially. Perhaps it was this spirit that supported this country and nation, allowing them to survive and reproduce with difficulty throughout the long river of history, and eventually prosper.
"I can, we all can!" Fu Baoer looked at Xu Shuzhen seriously.
Xu Shuzhen touched the top of Fu Baoer's head and smiled with relief.
She gave up the college entrance examination to come here, but she didn't regret it at all. She just felt a little regretful that she was not assigned to a remote frontier with her partner.
But Xu Shuzhen will not be disappointed because of this, she still has a lot of things to do.
