The Yanshan Brigade...
Sheng Zhiyi, Liu Wenzhe, Wang Fang and others were busy attending training at the commune middle school, so they avoided this year's summer harvest and summer planting.
Time quickly came to half a month after the start of school...
Just today...
The team leader suddenly received a notice from above saying that next week, a group of educated youth would come to Yanshan Brigade to support rural construction, and asked the team leader to remember to arrange someone to go to the commune to pick them up.
Captain: “…”
As soon as the captain received this news, he felt terrible!
In previous years, educated youth were usually assigned to the village in July or August.
They thought that no more educated youth would be assigned to their village this year. Several village cadres were very happy about this a few days ago!
Who would have thought...
The above is so unconventional.
As soon as the team leader returned to the village, he told the news to several village cadres.
Several village cadres sighed!
In recent years, there have been enough educated youth assigned to their village.
I didn’t expect that at this time, the higher-ups were still releasing those educated youth from the city!
Not to mention whether they can persist...
Now that we are in the village, shouldn’t we get some food?
Although the situation has been getting better in recent years, the harvest from the fields is also slightly better than in previous years.
But there's only so much land in the village that can be cultivated... and everyone can only earn so many work points...
If so many educated youth came every year, the food rations everyone could get would naturally be affected.
But the leaders above have already spoken, so they can only do as they are told.
There is no way, a higher-ranking official can crush a person to death.
The country's policy is there, so no matter how many ideas they have, they can only keep them in their hearts.
We can only hope that this group of newly arrived educated youth can behave themselves and not make too much noise.
However...reality often exceeds expectations.
The village cadres don’t know now that this group of newly arrived educated youth are very noisy!
......
Mu Yunxi brought back two watermelons from the vegetable garden.
The early-ripening watermelons had already been eaten by her and Sheng Zhiyi.
This batch is late-maturing, and the smaller ones weigh about seven or eight kilograms.
Mu Yunxi picked up a watermelon and threw it into the well water tank to soak.
Then he picked up another watermelon and went straight to the captain's house.
The team leader's wife gave her six or seven cantaloupes grown in her own vegetable garden two days ago.
To return the favor, Mu Yunxi had some free time today, so she picked out a top-quality watermelon and sent it to her aunt's house.
The courtyard door was open and Aunt Guihua was sitting in the yard picking vegetables.
The captain was also sitting under the eaves, his eyes blank and his brows tightly furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Even when Mu Yunxi passed by him, he had no reaction at all.
Mu Yunxi placed the watermelon next to Aunt Guihua and asked curiously, "Aunt, what happened to the captain?"
Wang Guihua glanced at the team leader, then looked at Mu Yunxi and said with a smile, "Ignore him. There are new educated youth being assigned to our village, and he's worried!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at the big watermelon beside her and pretended to be angry: "You kid, just come if you want to. Why did you bring a watermelon with you?"
Wang Guihua said the words of refusal with a smile, but the kindness and gentleness in her eyes became more and more intense.
"I'd be very happy if you could come home and talk to me. You don't need to bring anything. I've planted some watermelons this year. You can take them home and eat them yourself."
Mu Yunxi smiled and replied, "Auntie, the cantaloupe you gave me is so crisp and sweet. I picked out a watermelon for you and Captain Uncle to try and see if the watermelons I grow are sweet!"
Wang Guihua smiled and gave her a glare, but her tone couldn't hide her cheerfulness.
"You kid! Why are you being so polite to your aunt? These sweet and greasy fruits are only enjoyed by young people like you. Your captain uncle and I are both old and don't like to eat these."
Mu Yunxi: "..."
Is this the common saying among the older generation, "I don't like to eat it?"
Hearing the constant voices coming from his ears, the captain finally came back to his senses.
He nodded at Mu Yunxi, a faint smile on his face: "Mu Zhiqing, why are you here?"
