"It's okay if you can't tell the difference between wheat and weeds! It's okay if you can't use a sickle. You are children from big cities. You are all educated and idealistic young people. It takes only a few minutes to distinguish wheat from weeds. It's not a big deal. As for how to use a sickle correctly, Lao Zhang will show you how to use it later. Learn it well and don't cut yourself in the fields. We don't have doctors here!"
Director Zhou left after saying this.
Zhou Xiaoran curled her lips, turned around without saying a word, and followed Sheng Kangning, Xu Hongmei and the others.
For the female educated youth, one tent is enough.
There were many male educated youth, so they set up three tents.
Everyone quickly packed their luggage and followed Lao Zhang to the dinner place.
On the way, Xu Hongmei said to Sheng Kangning with a firm look in her eyes: "I want to be a person like Director Zhou. You see, he seems to have everything under control."
Sheng Kangning smiled: "You also admire Director Zhou!"
Although Director Zhou is a military general, he has a gentlemanly demeanor and is fair in his dealings. After spending a long time with him, one can truly be convinced by him.
Xu Hongmei hummed.
In the army, Xu Hongmei admired the company commander Chu Nanzhou. When she arrived at the Great Northern Wilderness and met Chief Zhou for the first time, she was impressed by the middle-aged man.
The kitchen had already prepared a large pot of ginger and sugar water for the new educated youth, and also prepared meals.
A group of people hurried to the dining place. Everyone held something different in their hands. Some held lunch boxes, some held enamel pots, and some held bowls. First, each person was served a large bowl of ginger sugar water.
The food cooked in the kitchen this time was very good, which was beyond Sheng Kangning's expectations. There were soft and fragrant white flour buns, and cabbage and pork stewed with vermicelli whose fragrance could be smelled from far away.
Of course, it was mostly vermicelli and cabbage. As for meat, there was one or two pieces here and there in the big pot. But because there was meat, it tasted really good for these hungry people!
Such food was already excellent in Sheng Kangning's eyes.
When I came here in my previous life, it was probably because of the fire.
All the food was burned, and Sheng Kangning and other educated youth experienced food shortages as soon as they arrived.
That was really hard!
Xu Hongmei and Sheng Kangning lined up to get the dishes and steamed buns. Since there was no place to sit down to eat, everyone brought their dishes and steamed buns and found a corner to eat alone or in a group.
It was already daybreak at this time, and even though it was still raining, people's faces could still be seen clearly.
When Sheng Kangning followed Xu Hongmei and turned to walk out of the crowd.
When everyone saw Sheng Kangning's appearance, both the male and female educated youth were stunned. Before, on the carriage, it was dark and raining, and Sheng Kangning wrapped her head and face with clothes. In addition, Xu Hongmei was standing in front of her, so few people could see Sheng Kangning's appearance clearly.
Almost at the moment when Sheng Kangning turned around, the educated youth who were queuing for food were stunned when they saw it.
He looks to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.
Her skin is fair and delicate, her facial features are exquisite, and her face is so beautiful that people dare not look directly at her.
Zhou Xiaoran was standing not far from them, holding a lunch box in his hand and drinking soup with his head down. When he saw the expressions on everyone's faces, he snorted.
Zhou Xiaoran originally had a pretty face with delicate features, but there were too many mosquitoes. Now, many parts of her pretty face were bitten by mosquitoes, and there were red bumps everywhere, which was hard to describe.
Xu Hongmei slightly turned sideways to block those people's sight.
Soon, a man slowly walked over, holding a lunch box in one hand and three big steamed buns in the other.
The man walked straight to Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei, stopped about five or six steps away, looked at them and smiled, revealing his full white teeth:
"Hello, my name is Liu Jinjiang! Captain of the Youth Protection Team!"
The newly arrived male educated youth looked at Liu Jinjiang with great surprise.
Just go up and introduce yourself!
This is too straightforward!
Sheng Kangning looked up at the person who came.
She knew that the Youth Protection Team was a group of militiamen who protected the crops in the fields and prevented them from being harmed by the wild beasts coming down from the mountains. These people were selected from the farms and were generally retired soldiers. They had good skills and marksmanship and excellent physical fitness.
Liu Jinjiang?
Sheng Kangning looked up this name in his memories, and it took him a while to remember that this man named Liu Jinjiang was one of the martyrs who died in the sea of fire with Guo Weiguo.
Sheng Kangning was full of respect for a person who died in a sea of fire, but what was his purpose in jumping out like this?
Sheng Kangning took two steps back without making a sound, and became fully alert.
During the years he lived in the Great Northern Wilderness in his previous life, Sheng Kangning was more sensitive than ordinary people to close relationships between men and women.
At this moment, Sheng Kangning was in a tense state.
Xu Hongmei also looked at Liu Jinjiang with a vigilant look:
"What's the matter?"
Liu Jinjiang's eyes fell on Xu Hongmei and asked, "What's your name?"
"Xu Hongmei!"
Liu Jinjiang looked at Sheng Kangning again and asked with a smile, "What about you?"
Sheng Kangning was already full of coldness at this time: "Sheng Kangning!"
Liu Jinjiang must have seen that the two were not welcoming him, so he smiled and said:
"I just came over to get acquainted. Don't get me wrong. I have a younger sister named Liu Jinhe, who is about your age. She is sixteen years old this year and works in another farm. Your eyes look alike, but I don't mean anything else. I'm from the Youth Protection Team. If you need any help, you can come to me. It's nice to meet you. Bye!"
