Jiang Jianguo encouraged all eligible young people to sign up bravely.
After Su Yuhe's encouragement, Xu Yun bravely raised his hand among the many educated youths and said, "I want to sign up too."
Wu Ling looked at Xu Yun and said, "Xu Zhiqing, you are young. Why don't you not sign up? So many old Zhiqing are counting on this spot to return to the city."
Every time one more person signs up, there is one less opportunity for competition.
Wu Ling came to persuade Xu Yun because she was young and had no position, and she thought she was easy to bully. Otherwise, why didn't she persuade Song Zhiguo or Dai Chunhua?
Xu Yun was in his early twenties and Wu Ling was almost thirty. In fact, apart from Xu Yun and a few other young people, many other educated youth were almost thirty or already in their thirties.
But just because you are older, should people give way to you?
Xu Yun felt a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to contradict Wu Ling, his "senior".
Su Yuhe ignored her: "Since you think you are too old, don't sign up. Give the younger generation a chance."
Wu Ling felt that Su Yuhe was a very charming person, and she didn't dare to confront her. She muttered, "I'm not talking to you."
"Go sign up." Su Yuhe pushed Xu Yun forward.
Although Xu Yun is only in her early twenties, she has actually been working in the countryside for three or four years. In terms of working hours, she is not much different from Wu Ling.
Xu Yun took a deep breath, pinched the corner of his clothes and ran up to squeeze in to sign up.
As Su Yuhe thought, Luo Yan was no longer qualified. What she did hurt others and was backward in thinking, so it was inappropriate.
Dajiang Village is a big village with fifty or sixty educated youth.
Almost all those who met the requirements signed up, and there were more than 30 educated youth alone.
The rest either did not meet the requirements or gave up registering.
In addition, not only the educated youth, but also some members who met the educational level and years of work experience signed up.
For example, Jiang Jianguo's daughter, who had just graduated from junior high school, also applied.
In the end, there were forty-one people competing for five places for workers, peasants and soldiers as college students.
There are too many people and too little meat, so Su Yuhe decided not to join in the fun.
On the evening after the meeting, Su Yuhe returned to the educated youth site after work. Jiang Lin was waiting a few dozen meters away from the door.
Su Yuhe put her things away and trotted out, looking a little surprised: "Why are you here? Do you want to use the bike?"
Jiang Lin shook his head and was silent for a while. He didn't dare look at Su Yuhe when he spoke: "Um, I understand the quota for workers, peasants and soldiers to get university students."
Su Yuhe raised her eyebrows: "And then?"
Then?
Jiang Lin wanted to say something and then his heart was broken.
He felt that Su Yuhe was so good, and if she applied, she would definitely be selected.
Will she go back then?
He hung his head, looking very dejected.
Su Yuhe deliberately said: "Yes, I signed up. So, what are you going to do?"
"I don't know." Jiang Lin took a long time to utter these words.
His shoulders drooped even more. What would he do if Su Yuhe left?
"Please keep me here." Su Yuhe seemed to be bewitching, "If you keep me here, I won't sign up."
Jiang Lin was silent for a long time: "You should go back."
Su Yuhe frowned: "You piece of wood!"
She was so angry that she stabbed Jiang Lin in the chest several times: "Stupid! You have to work for two years before you can apply for that position! I just arrived! You still want me to go back! Are you hooking up with Sister Lili?"
"No!" Jiang Lin replied hastily, grabbing Su Yuhe's hand. "I'm a wooden man. I'm just afraid of you..."
"Afraid I'll go back?" Su Yuhe saw him nod, a little annoyed, "You come to my house now to propose marriage, marry me back home!"
Jiang Lin shook his head: "Wait a little longer."
Su Yuhe knew it and rolled her eyes: "Go back and reflect on it!"
"Wait a minute." Jiang Lin called Su Yuhe and, after receiving her very dissatisfied look, he said in a very low voice, "Bicycle, I'll pick up Old Man Shi tomorrow."
"Come and get it. Do you want me to push it out for you?"
Jiang Lin grinned and followed Su Yuhe.
Jiang Lin had no objection to Su Yuhe and the others' decision to invite Shi Kangyuan to live at their home, and he even arranged an identity for Shi Kangyuan.
It makes sense that they are distant relatives of Mei Lanyue and came here to live after fleeing famine.
Jiang Lin rode his bike to pick them up in person. Shi Kangyuan sat in the back holding a bundle, and Dandan sat on the front bar.
The dirt road was uneven and Shi Kangyuan was shaking violently. He held on to the seat tightly. After another bump, he finally couldn't help but let go.
Jiang Lin rode slower: "You've shaken my old bones apart!"
In the past, families who asked him to visit them for medical treatment would pick them up in a horse-drawn carriage with a very soft mattress on top.
Jiang Lin's bicycle shook him so hard that his internal organs were about to come out of his mouth.
Jiang Lin slowed down a bit, but when he got home, Shi Kangyuan landed on the bicycle seat and patted his chest to slow down: "It would have been better to walk."
"We've been walking for most of the day, let's go in."
Jiang Lin opened the door and moved the bicycle in.
"Sister!" Dandan saw Su Yuhe sitting in the yard picking vegetables, and ran in with her little legs.
She didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and was even more excited because of the car ride.
"I'm back." Su Yuhe stood up. "The dishes are almost ready. I'll go make them now. Brother Lin, take Grandpa Shi to his room."
The house that was cleaned for Shi Kangyuan had actually not been occupied for a long time, but there was no clutter piled up there. It was just that no one had lived there for a long time. After cleaning it up, Jiang Lin specially got some mugwort and brought it back to fumigate it all night.
There was the scent of mugwort inside, and Shi Kangyuan looked quite satisfied.
Jiang Lin brought the person over, said a few words, and ran to the kitchen to help.
Dandan watched Shi Kangyuan put his things on the kang and sit down beside him. She asked cautiously, "Grandpa, are we going to live here from now on?"
"For a short time, yes."
Shi Kangyuan touched his granddaughter's head with some emotion. She wouldn't have to suffer the cold this winter.
Dandan actually couldn’t understand what a short period of time meant, but she understood that they could stay here, and the child became excited.
"Why are you here instead of talking to Grandpa Shi?" Su Yuhe looked at Jiang Lin helplessly.
Jiang Lin replied nonchalantly: "What's there to say? I think he's quite annoying when he looks at me."
Su Yuhe: "You, Grandpa Shi will be living here from now on. You have to be nice to him when you give Aunt Yun acupuncture."
Jiang Lin felt a little wronged: "When have I ever been mean to him? He is the one who always dislikes me."
Su Yuhe pointed at him and said, "You call him old man as soon as you meet him. That's right."
Today's dishes are obviously richer, with two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a plate of smashed cucumbers.
After cooking the dishes, Jiang Lin followed Su Yuhe closely and pinched a piece of crispy meat to pass to Su Yuhe's mouth.
Su Yuhe was annoyed with him and sent him away: "Go and call people for dinner."
Shi Kangyuan went into the house and never came out. Dandan was squatting in the yard playing. Jiang Lin asked her to go wash her hands and went to knock on the door.
In the main room, Ye Yunshu sat at the dining table.
Shi Kangyuan pulled Dandan in behind Jiang Lin. Ye Yunshu listened to the voice and smiled slightly: "Uncle Shi."
