Chapter 13: Going to the Countryside
"Li He——"
"arrive--"
Standing on the truck, a man in army green clothes was holding a notebook with names recorded and was constantly counting names.
"Jiang He——, Ji Ejie——!" Jiang He and Ji Ejie heard the roll call as soon as they squeezed into the crowd, and Ji Ejie quickly raised his hand, "Here, here, we are both here."
"Come here quickly." A man on the other side of the truck waved at them, then took the two men's luggage, one in each hand, and pulled them onto the truck.
"I didn't expect there would be so many male volunteers this year." The man who pulled them up smiled and said, "You two can find a place to sit. We are still registering."
"Thank you! Jiang He, let's sit inside." Ji Lijie thanked the man, then carried his luggage and sat in the innermost seat.
"Li Lizhi, I don't like what you said. What do you mean there are more male volunteers this year? We female volunteers have also worked hard. A great man once said that women can hold up the team for half the day." A girl with twin ponytails sitting on the right side of Ji Lijie smiled.
"Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing, Zhou Yuzhi is right." The man admitted his mistake quickly and slapped his own mouth.
"Zhao Xiaoxue -, Lin Jun -, okay, our car is full, let's go to the next one." The man standing behind the car holding a notebook shouted, and then walked to the next truck.
When Jiang He just looked up, he saw a familiar smiling face. The other party was very generous and directly squeezed between him and Ji Jie. "I think we are destined to be together, right? But even if you don't tell me, where do you live? I think I will know it later."
"Hey, do you two know each other?" The two girls opposite teased with a smile.
"Well, his name is Jiang He, and he is my savior." Zhao Xiaoxue smiled.
"How do you say savior?" The other people nearby laughed.
Jiang He looked at the smiling faces of a group of young people who were full of vigor and vitality in front of him. His mood of parting became better, so he smiled and said, "It's just a small favor." His smile was very contagious, and coupled with his good looks, he instantly made everyone who looked at him dazzled.
"Oh~~, it's no wonder the little girl misses her savior so much, he looks like this."
Everyone in the car was laughing and joking, which made the scene quite lively.
"By the way, I just heard them say where they were going to take us? I don't think I heard it clearly." The girl sitting opposite Ji Yujie asked curiously.
"Well, I heard that we will gather in Tongxiang first, and then be assigned to other counties and villages according to needs." said a boy sitting outside.
"Ah? I hope the place we are assigned to is not too remote. It will be inconvenient if we don't send letters." Hearing the boy's words, several people around him also showed worried expressions.
"We are all working for national development. I think even if we don't have much contact with our families, they will definitely understand us." The girl who had the problem before was still relatively optimistic and full of beautiful fantasies about her future life.
"Yes, we must work hard for a new future." Everyone's heart was mobilized, and everyone strengthened their determination.
"Okay, you guys should take a break now. We'll be busy when we get to our destination." The man sitting farthest away smiled.
"Yeah." Everyone fell silent, and Jiang He began to look at the truck. The seat was not very comfortable, and there were iron plates on all four sides of the seat, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. There was also a smell of sweat in the air, and that smell was really sour.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Zhao Xiaoxue's face looked a little bad, Jiang He thought that the other party might be feeling unwell and asked with concern.
"These iron lumps are uncomfortable to sit on." She muttered softly.
