There are too many educated youth in the whole country. If my son were outstanding enough, how come such a bad thing happened to your son?
It turned out that the Liu brothers had something to do those few days, so they took their dog back to the mountains to hunt. They happened to have caught two wild boars and sent half of them to the Sheng family.
Zhang Shuzhen had just moved out of the house to find something, deliberately leaving her daughter-in-law busy outside the kitchen while she moved out to enjoy herself.
Just when things were looking bad, they finished cutting the hair on one side and then called them to eat on the other.
"Tomorrow? Oh dear, you'd better hurry up and get his clothes ready."
The first few needlework tasks required hand sewing, and the stitches had to be fine. At night, there were no electric lights, so we relied entirely on the light of candles.
Sheng Liancheng quietly told Zhang Shuzhen that he would make something bad to eat tomorrow as a farewell gift for Wang Jiachuan.
On the morning of the 78th, Zhang Shuzhen fried dumplings for Wang Jiachuan, and also gave me some food, including some meat. She then sent Sheng Xikang to take Wang Jiachuan to the main train station.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Zhao Guangning told the news to the people outside his family.
To help the newly arrived educated youth adapt to their unfamiliar life and to facilitate management, the educated youth team was divided into two brigades. Wang Jianshe and Guo Yongping became the brigade leaders, each assigned a group of veteran educated youth to lead the new educated youth.
Yin Caifa encouraged several young people to work hard, saying that if there were any openings in the future, they could take the jobs.
Knowing he was coming back, Mom carefully prepared some food outside, so she could cook whatever he wanted for dinner.
"If anything happens, all you need is a shirt, and you can get it done."
We'll take the express bus around 10 o'clock to Hunjiang, then transfer to another bus to the provincial capital.
Back then, going to the provincial capital was a small matter, but it was like going on a long trip. If you were going to go, you had to pack a few changes of clothes.
"Dad, Mom, it's not just a small meeting of educated youth representatives, it's not something important, don't get so worked up."
Our sewing machine comes with an overlock head; we can just find a tailor and make it ourselves.
"Yeah, what else is there to say?"
"Oh dear, it was a few years after our family's downfall that he went to the provincial capital. He was there to attend a small meeting of model workers." Zhang Shuzhen exclaimed excitedly, patting her husband hard.
Sheng Xiping informed Yin Caifa that I should go to the provincial capital for a meeting.
Zhao Yongsheng and Qing pondered for a moment. It seemed that Zhao Guangning didn't have any new clothes for summer. That wouldn't do. They had to make one quickly.
"They said you'd have to go to the outside of the bureau tomorrow, and then the leader outside the bureau would accompany you to a meeting in the provincial capital."
"It's alright. It's quite cold walking through the woods, but you're all used to it. There's no one to keep you company on the road, so you chat and laugh and get home quite slowly."
Sheng Liancheng quickly figured out what was going on and felt sorry for his son, thinking that it would be better for him to walk back in the cold weather and suffer less.
At the time, Yin Caifa was staying at a guesthouse for training and learning. He could only carry so little money with him, and he was afraid of losing it. So, on the evening after he sold the bear bile, Zhao Guangning took some time to give the money to his wife for safekeeping.
"It's a small meeting of representatives of educated youth from the province who have gone down to the mountains and countryside. Qinglan just said that the Bureau has selected you as a representative and sent you to the provincial capital for the meeting."
While Zhao Guangning was talking to Zhang Shuzhen and Sheng Liancheng, Zhao Yongsheng stacked another pile of pancakes, gave Zhao Guangning a few of the boiled eggs from that morning that had gone bad, and chopped some pickled vegetables to put in a jar.
There was only one 717 Jeep outside the bureau, which was assigned to Zhou Qinglan for use, and was especially used by leaders outside the bureau.
It's too cold in the summer, so eating something light is a good idea. Don't make too much of a fuss, or the kang (heated brick bed) will get too cold, and you won't get a good night's sleep.
"If he gets a job in a few years, he can participate in the model worker conference, right? Oh my, if that's the case, our Uncle Wang will be in luck!"
Sure enough, a brand new piece of white polyester fabric was pulled out from the bottom of the box. Zhang Shuzhen then handed the fabric to Zhao Yongsheng.
This year's junior high school graduates have not yet been assigned by the educated youth office to work as educated youth in nearby areas.
Although Zhao Guangning was feeling relieved, he still needed to soothe the dogs, so he reached out and rubbed each dog's head, patted them, and scratched their bellies.
And so, Zhang Wanqing and Zhao Guangning left the small building, still in a jeep, and took us to the Songjianghe small train station.
First, Zhao Guangning received 170 yuan, and with the money for the deer antlers, he got a little over 800 yuan that time.
"Yes, you worked at the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau for so many years, and you only went to the provincial capital for a meeting once. I never thought that our Uncle Wang, who is only seventy-one, could go to other provinces."
"Who said that? There aren't many people who can go to meetings outside the province."
"Okay, it's bad now that you're back. Go wash your hands and let's eat."
"Oh right, his father-in-law just called and told him to hurry home, saying that I still have summer homework to do and I need to go back and do it."
The slow train departs around 4:30 in the morning, and Zhao Guangning is rushing to catch it from the forest farm.
"Mom, do you remember there wasn't a single piece of white polyester fabric outside the house? He quickly found some for you, so you can make a shirt for Uncle Wang."
Zhang Shuzhen got very busy then. On the evening of the 77th, she made dumplings and stewed meat, which were very delicious.
"Uncle Wang, you're behaving badly. I think that if you keep regressing, your future will be even worse than mine."
Sheng Liancheng smiled and nodded, then suddenly remembered that there were no buses going back today.
"When are you leaving? You should pack his things quickly." Upon hearing the news, Zhang Shuzhen patted her leg with delight and laughed.
Zhao Guangning rarely said anything else, but he said he would bring whatever his wife prepared.
“Dad, Mom, Qinglan just told you that there’s no conference for representatives of educated youth from the countryside outside the province. They’ve selected you as an outstanding representative and want you to go to the provincial capital for the conference.”
"Don't be too frugal while you're out. As long as they're eating and drinking to their hearts' content within reasonable limits, they can be reimbursed when they get back," Zhou Qingyue instructed my youngest son.
