"I'm busy, Brother Chen, look, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with!"
Faced with Chen Yang's invitation, Zhou Ziwen spread his hands helplessly.
He has no interest in getting to know new educated youth. If he has that much time, he would rather do more work at home.
"You're not sociable, brother. Listen to me. Just get to know everyone. It won't take much time." Chen Yang patted his shoulder and advised.
"Okay, then I'll come later." Faced with Chen Yang's repeated invitations, Zhou Ziwen nodded helplessly.
If he refused again, it would be disrespectful.
As long as it doesn't involve issues of principle, he is easy to talk to.
But he was a little confused. Chen Yang was too enthusiastic! They had not had much contact with the Youth League Institute and could be said to have become independent a long time ago.
It seems unnecessary to force him to go and meet new people!
After thinking about it, Zhou Ziwen still didn't understand, so he simply stopped thinking about it. He would know what the purpose was when he got there.
As the saying goes, "A man of great skill is bold." He really didn't believe that even now, there were still people who were targeting him.
"By the way, aren't we having a dinner together today?" Zhou Ziwen asked curiously.
He remembered that there was a tradition in the Youth League that whenever new educated youth arrived, they would gather together for dinner.
After all, the educated youth had just arrived and most of them brought some delicious food with them. At that time, the old educated youth wanted to exploit him.
"Forget it. This is a thankless task, and besides, that incident just happened, so no one is in the mood for it." Chen Yang smiled bitterly.
Because of a few educated youth who stole sweet potatoes, they were not welcomed these days. The villagers also disliked them, especially the aunties and grandmas who spoke in a sarcastic tone, and they suffered a lot from them.
"That's true." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
It’s better not to have dinner together, because there won’t be so many things to do if we don’t have dinner together.
He doesn't want to have dinner with these people. If he has this much time, wouldn't it be nice to have dinner with two girls at home?
After Chen Yang left, Zhou Ziwen continued to peel the oil tea fruit. After a while, Chen Qiaoyi also came to help.
"Brother Ziwen, Liu Lingling just came over and asked us to go to the Youth League Home." Chen Qiaoyi spoke as soon as she arrived.
"Yes, Chen Yang came just now." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"Haha, this is a good opportunity to watch the fun. I hope there will be a good show later." At this time, Zhou Chaoyang outside also ran over.
"You kid, you only know how to gloat over other people's misfortunes." Zhou Ziwen said unhappily.
"Haha, you can't blame me for this. I just took a look and saw that there are quite a few restless people among this group of educated youth. I think they will cause a lot of trouble."
Zhou Chaoyang has a keen eye and is very familiar with this kind of restless people. When he was in the city, many of his friends were like this.
"Okay, don't just stand there, come and help." Zhou Ziwen urged.
"Coming." Zhou Chaoyang consciously moved a stool and peeled the shells with Zhou Ziwen.
Not long after, Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi prepared the meal.
While eating, everyone discussed the newly arrived educated youth and felt that they were going to cause trouble.
Zhou Chaoyang and Chen Qiaoyi both like to watch the fun and couldn't help themselves.
They had just finished their meal and were already urging them to come over.
However, considering that the Youth League Institute might not eat so soon, Zhou Ziwen decided to go later.
So they waited for a while, until it was almost dark.
When we arrived at the Youth League Home, the new educated youth had almost settled in.
Six of them came this time, making up for the few they were short of.
As a result, the number of educated youth in Dabazi Village now reached thirty.
"Brother Zhou, Comrade Chen Shiying, Comrade Chen Qiaoyi...you are here. Come in quickly. I would like to introduce you to some new educated youth."
Seeing Zhou Ziwen and the others, Chen Yang warmly welcomed them into the house.
Seeing Chen Yang so enthusiastic, Zhou Ziwen felt something was even more wrong.
He frowned and asked Chen Yang directly: "Brother Chen, why are you so enthusiastic?"
Given his status in the village, he could just ask directly about this matter.
In terms of his contribution to the village, Chen Yang can't compare with him at all.
Even if the two had a conflict, the production team would side with him.
"Well, it's all for a place at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. To be honest, I've been in the countryside for three years and have always dreamed of returning to the city. But I don't have connections in the city like other people do. If I want to return to the city, getting into the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University is my only chance."
Seeing Zhou Ziwen's expression that said he would not go in unless he explained clearly, Chen Yang explained helplessly.
"Has this year's quota been filled?" After hearing this, Zhou Ziwen finally understood why Chen Yang was so enthusiastic.
"Well, according to Secretary Wu, there is one vacancy this year," Chen Yang explained.
He was not afraid of Zhou Ziwen knowing it, because in order to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, one had to go to the countryside for more than three years. Zhou Ziwen had only been there for a few months and did not meet the requirements at all.
If Zhou Ziwen also had this qualification, he probably wouldn't be so confident.
Whether in terms of ability or status, Zhou Ziwen is unique.
If it weren't for the age issue, no one could compete with him.
What Chen Yang didn't know was that Zhou Ziwen didn't care about this spot.
In his heart, staying in the village is freer, just like he is now. He doesn't have to go to work, the village directly gives him full work points, and the rest of the time is all his own. He lives a very comfortable life.
"Congratulations in advance, Brother Chen." Zhou Ziwen patted his shoulder.
As the team leader of the Youth League Institute, he and Liu Lingling have the greatest hope of getting this spot, but it is unknown who will get it in the end.
In Zhou Ziwen's opinion, the two are evenly matched, and who will get the spot in the end depends on their methods.
Although Chen Yang is smart and handles things properly, Liu Lingling also has her advantages.
This woman is scheming. Last time, she came to him late at night in order to join the Mushroom Group.
This time, in order to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, I guess they will use some tricks, but I don’t know if the village cadres will buy it.
"Alas, before it's decided, we don't know who will get this spot!" Chen Yang also knows his own limitations. Many people in the Youth League Institute want this spot, and the biggest competitor is Liu Lingling.
"It's okay. With Brother Chen's ability, he can definitely do it." Zhou Ziwen encouraged.
Anyway, he was not interested in the quota and just wanted to watch the fun.
Because of this quota, the Youth League Institute will probably be very lively.
After just a few words, they arrived at the room where the new educated youth were.
As soon as they entered the door, they heard a loud conversation.
"Shouldn't the village give us separate houses? Why are we forced to live in such a poor place? We are young people of the new era, here to help the villagers, and this is how they treat us..."
Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Chaoyang looked at each other, both of them were bewildered, thinking in their hearts, where did this weird thing come from! (End of this chapter)
