Tonghua County, Jilin Province.
After traveling for a day and a night, the train finally arrived in Hua County after noon the next day.
Lu Aiguo protected Su Huazhu, while Song Luoshu got off the train with a group of educated youth, followed by Song Luoyun.
The staff of the Youth Affairs Office had arrived at the train station early and were waiting there. When they saw the educated youth coming off the train, they hurriedly shouted:
"Mentou Township, the educated youth from Mentou Township, please gather at my place."
"Mentou Township, the educated youth from Mentou Township, please gather at my place."
After Su Huazhu, Song Luoshu, and Song Luoyun heard the voice, they all rushed to the Youth League Office in Mentou Township together with the educated youth in this Fang Township.
Lin Aiguo hurriedly picked up the bicycle and followed. It was his responsibility to keep an eye on the children.
Half an hour later, all the educated youth from Mentou Township arrived. Then we took a bus together to Mentou Township. When we arrived at Mentou Township, people from each production team would come to take us back.
"Brother Lin, thank you. You have worked hard on this journey. We are here now. There are people from the Youth Office and so many educated youths here. We should be in danger now."
Su Huazhu was particularly grateful to Lin Aiguo for escorting them along the way. Because of him, they felt so relaxed along the way and were not so scared.
Especially after Song Luoshu got on the train, he felt carsick not long after. Fortunately, Lin Aiguo was very experienced, and with the motion sickness medicine prepared by Qiao Ruru, Song Luoshu slowly recovered his energy after half a day.
"Brother Lin, cousin Su is right. There are so many people riding in the car, and we will be there soon. Thank you so much, Brother Lin."
"Thank you, Brother Lin."
Song Luoyun, Song Luoshu and Su Huazhu thanked Lin Aiguo together. Fortunately, Lin Aiguo was with them along the way. Although they suffered and were worried, the brothers and sisters were especially grateful to Lin Aiguo in their hearts.
Lin Aiguo thought about it and knew that the three children were telling the truth, so he nodded in agreement.
"I'll take you to the bus first before I leave."
It's a good opportunity to help them carry their luggage and make their work easier.
Su Huazhu and the other three agreed. In fact, with Lin Aiguo around, they felt more at ease and secure.
The bus station was far from the train station and it took more than 20 minutes to walk there. There happened to be a bus to Mentou Township, so the educated youths, led by the people in the educated youth office, rushed up together.
After Lin Aiguo stuffed the luggage of the three of them into the car, he waved goodbye to Su Huazhu and the others.
It takes about two hours to take a bus from Conghua County to Mentou Township. A group of people are packed in a bus like sardines.
Fortunately, the clever Song Luoyun grabbed two seats for Su Huazhu and Song Luoshu, which saved the two girls from suffering.
More than two hours later, the educated youths, along with the staff from the educated youth office, piled into the car and finally arrived at Mentou Township.
After the bus, Su Huazhu and the other fifty or so educated youths followed the educated youths' office staff with their bags to the People's Commune of Mentou Township, where various production teams came to pick them up.
The production teams from Mentou Township who came to pick up the educated youth arrived one after another after lunch at noon. They calculated the time very accurately so that they didn't have to wait too long and the educated youth arrived.
Soon, the educated youths who were assigned to various production teams were taken away one by one by the people in the production teams to which they were assigned.
"Su Huazhu, Song Luoshu, Song Luoyun, Liu Wei, Li Jin, and Shang Xiaoyun from 꺶껚 Village."
Finally it was Su Huazhu and his friends' turn. The leader of the production team who came to pick them up was an elderly uncle.
Su Huazhu, Song Luoshu and Song Luoyun, who were called, hurried over with their luggage to report in. There were three young people with them.
Bai Qingxiao looked at the six young men standing in front of him, and especially glanced at Su Huazhu.
"Comrades, I'm your captain Bai Qingxiao. It's getting early now and it's getting dark soon. We have to go back immediately. Please follow me."
Bai Qingxiao greeted the educated youth while talking, then turned around and led them to where the ox cart was parked.
"This is our fourth uncle who drives the ox cart in the production team. You should call him fourth uncle. Put the luggage on the cart first. The girls will ride, and we boys will walk. If you get tired, you can take turns riding."
Bai Qing, who had extensive experience in receiving educated youth, made clear arrangements for these people and let them speak out.
Sure enough, everyone had no objection to his approach.
It was not until half an hour after leaving the people's commune that the production team leader Bai Qing looked at Su Huazhu sitting on the ox cart.
"You are Su Huazhu, right?! I am your uncle Qing. I received a letter from your family a few days ago and learned that you were going to our production team. Your grandfather and his family haven't been back for decades, but I didn't expect that you would come back in the end."
Bai Qingxiao was full of emotion. The people in their village had always regarded the Qiao family as their own villagers. Although the Qiao family only comes here once a year, when they come back, not only the whole village will benefit, but also the talented people in the village will follow the Qiao family out of the village and completely change their life destiny.
The Qiao family was indebted to the village, so when they learned that their granddaughter was going to the production team, they were very excited.
This time, even Bai Qingji, who usually went to pick up the educated youth, came in person to pick them up, mainly to bring Su Huazhu back.
"Uncle Qing, I didn't know until I left that my grandfather had lived in our production team. My grandfather and his family passed away after my uncle left, and there is no one left in our ancestral home except my mother."
Su Huazhu said while wiping her tears and choking. She had never seen her grandfather before, but he passed away when she was a child. I never expected that now that my family is in trouble, the connections left by my ancestors can still help my family.
Very good.
"Don't cry, kid. You're home now."
The fourth uncle who had been driving the car in front turned around and comforted him, saying that the Qiao family had not been back for twenty years. He felt very sad when he heard that the Qiao family had all passed away.
"Good boy, live well in our production team. Your uncles and aunts will be there for you in everything. They will never let you suffer any grievances."
Bai Qingxiao had already thought about it. It was the consensus of the whole family that Su Huazhu should be allowed to suffer injustice in the production team.
"Uncle Qing, my parents said that you should not be treated specially when you come to our production team. You should work like everyone else. It's good if you don't lose face for your uncles. It will affect the reputation of my grandfather and others."
Unexpectedly, Su Huazhu shook her head and said no. This was what her parents had told her. She didn't want to be treated specially, as it would be easy to make enemies.
The most important thing is that my parents, brother and sister-in-law will soon be sent to the production team next door. If their relationship is known to others, it will bring bad news.
Su Huazhu could still tell which was more important.
"Okay, okay, you look like your uncle."
"Qingxiao, let's listen to the girl."
