Chapter 273 The Congress of Educated Youth
"Oh, is that so? Well, you guys go ahead with your work. Remember to wash your hands with soap and change your clothes before you go back to your room for dinner."
Your sister-in-law can't stand these strange smells. Be careful she doesn't throw up, or I'll hold you responsible.
At this moment, no one is more important than his wife and children, so Sheng Xiping ruthlessly threatened his younger siblings.
"Okay, that's what Mom said too," Sheng Xikang and the others replied impatiently.
These days, they've heard the same words countless times; their ears are practically calloused.
Sheng Xiping shook his head and stepped into the house from outside, just in time to see Zhou Qinglan tidying up the food in the outer room.
"Honey, I'm back. I missed you so much."
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was in the outer room, Sheng Xiping went up and gave his wife a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Stop fooling around, Mom and Dad are inside." Zhou Qinglan rolled her eyes at her husband, but couldn't help but smile.
The two had been separated for several days. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, not to mention that they were already newlyweds, so how could they not miss each other?
"Uncle, you should go home now. You're going to Songjiang River tomorrow, so you need to go home and pack your things."
Before long, Yang Chunming, a wicked man, came to Sun Zhengyang's house and broke his left leg. It was the neighbor who took him to the hospital.
After that one time, there were no major changes, but fewer people were doing the work.
There was no other way, so Zhao Yongsheng could only put the clothes away and get up early the next day to finish the first tasks.
As an outstanding educated youth, representing all the educated youth in the entire bureau, going to a meeting outside the province? Oh dear, such a terrible thing has fallen on my head?
Sheng Xiping suddenly remembered that he had just received a call from Zhou Mingyuan that afternoon, so he quickly told Zhao Guangning.
Wang Jiachuan was so unhappy about what he ate that he wished he could stay at his brother-in-law's house forever.
Zhou Qingyue and Zhou Qinglan were both quite rude. They gave Zhao Guangning some instructions with a smile, and then Zhou Qingyue waved his hand, telling Zhang Wanqing to accompany Zhao Guangning to the train station.
"What else could it be? Our Deputy Director Sun and Yang Chunming's wife have a complicated relationship."
Then, Zhao Yongsheng asked Zhang Shuzhen for an old-fashioned iron from outside the house. He picked out some leftover charcoal from outside the stove, removed it, dusted off the clothes, and ironed them smooth.
Wang Jiachuan left Houchuan Forest Farm with his small bag and large bundle on his back and went home to do his homework.
Zhao Yongsheng put down the scissors he was holding, rolled up the ruined fabric, and then went to the east room to eat.
They complained that I only knew how to play at the forest farm, that I was having too much fun, and that I hadn't even touched a single word of my summer homework.
"No, it's better to be frugal on the road than to be poor. Who knows what kind of situation he might encounter when he's out and about?"
In those days, a small number of men could actually make clothes, it just depended on whether they were good or bad.
No Chinese person has a heart for gossip, and Zhang Wanqing is an example of this.
Songjianghe Railway Station is a small station on the Hunbai Railway line. It was planned and constructed by the Forestry Bureau in 1971, and the railway was also planned and built accordingly.
"You came back from Ma'anshan again? Why would you go all that way back?"
"Mom, what's wrong? Did you fall asleep while reading? Did you hear what he said?" Yin Caifa asked as he walked over from the west room.
"Guys, he's had a tough time, keep it up!"
They called back, and since the machine was recently repaired outside the site, did they just bring them back?
Sheng Liancheng was startled by the slap his wife gave him, and then he laughed along.
The dogs hadn't seen Zhao Guangning for quite a while, and they were very affectionate, insisting that Zhao Guangning play with them for a while.
They asked the army to come and help repair the railway, and it was opened to traffic in 1980.
Small quantities of timber from the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau were continuously transported along the railway line to various parts of China to support local construction projects.
"Your food and lodging are taken care of by the authorities, but you spend your own money," Zhao Guangning said quickly upon seeing this.
In those days, going on a long trip was a minor matter, especially for someone like Zhao Guangning who went out to attend meetings. He had to be dressed neatly and properly, otherwise he would embarrass others.
And so, Yin Caifa left home with a rather heavy bag on his back and headed straight for the farm headquarters.
What's even more unexpected is that I was chosen by outsiders to be an outstanding educated youth to attend the small meeting.
In those days, even many cadres outside the bureau didn't have the opportunity to attend meetings in the provincial capital, let alone special employees. This was no small matter.
He's the most outstanding educated youth in our forest farm, and among the top seven in the entire area. If we send him, who else could we send?
But now that you're pregnant, you get sleepy and fall asleep while reading.
After breakfast, Zhang Shuzhen took out some money (but no ration coupons) and gave it to Zhao Guangning.
Just then, Zhang Shuzhen shouted at the top of her lungs, and Zhao Yongsheng in the west room vaguely heard it and quickly got up.
"Young lady, is it too late to do it now? Does Zhang the tailor only take on such slow jobs?"
Sheng Xiping stared at her sly smile, only snapping out of his daze when Zhou Qinglan nudged him and he stepped into the house.
“He can save those for when he gets off the train. Even if there’s nothing to eat, it’s ridiculously expensive. It’s better to bring some pancakes and pickled vegetables, just enough to tide him over, so he won’t go hungry.”
Finally, the seven dogs were appeased and they all went back to their dens to stay there.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back. The training went well, but I haven't passed it yet. They'll issue the certificate in a while." Zhao Guangning stepped out of the house and greeted his parents.
Zhang Shuzhen was very upset and shouted at the top of her lungs towards the west room.
Zhao Guangning looked at his wife with a smile and said gently, "We'll leave tomorrow."
The whole Songjiang River region knows about it; you'd probably even heard about it in Donggang Commune.
Zhang Shuzhen thought so: You think it's a great honor for your son to be able to attend a meeting in the provincial capital.
