Chapter 41: Going to the Countryside to Join the Production Team



"I went to the countryside to work as an educated youth."

"How many children do you have in your family when you are an educated youth?"

Almost no one in the city didn't know how hard it was for the educated youth who went to the countryside. She felt very sorry when she thought that such a delicate little girl like Xu Nuannuan had to go to the countryside to suffer.

"I'm the only one in my family. I couldn't find a suitable job in the city, but I wanted to participate in national development, so I signed up to go to the countryside."

"Aren't you afraid of the hardships of going to the countryside?"

"I'm not afraid. Only those who endure the most hardships can achieve success. The development of the country and the progress of society are the result of the hard work of every individual. Even personal survival requires hardship. I think it's normal to endure some hardship. If everyone can't endure hardship, who will support us? Besides, I'm so young, it's the age when I should be working hard. Why should I be afraid of hardship?"

This is what Xu Nuannuan really thinks. Even if she doesn't go to the countryside to help her parents, she will still shine in other fields with this attitude.

Mrs. Guan was somewhat moved by Xu Nuannuan's words: "Good boy, you are a good boy. Your parents must be very sensible people."

"Yes." Xu Nuannuan nodded. "They love me very much, but they are very supportive of me in this matter. They have always respected my wishes."

Old Mrs. Guan didn't know what to say anymore, so she asked Xu Nuannuan where she went in the countryside, and Xu Nuannuan told her the truth.

Mrs. Guan smiled and said, "I don't have much to do on weekdays. I like to walk around. Maybe one day I will come to see you in the place where you went to the countryside."

"Okay, grandma, I'll wait for you."

She glanced at Lin Ruyan out of the corner of her eye and found that the other person's face seemed not to be looking good.

Then Lin Ruyan said to Mrs. Guan, "Grandma, let's go back. You see, there's no room for Comrade Xu to sit here."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and waved her hands: "It's okay, grandma, please sit down. I've been sitting for so long, I want to stand for a while."

Old Mrs. Guan felt embarrassed to occupy Xu Nuannuan's seat, so she stood up and said goodbye to Xu Nuannuan, then stood up and returned to her own seat with Lin Ruyan.

In order to find a seat, Liu Cuiying walked along the aisle. Before she found her seat, she saw Lin Ruyan walking towards her from the opposite side. She subconsciously turned around and immediately walked back.

Lin Ruyan, with her bright young eyes, noticed her and said to Mrs. Guan, "Grandma, I saw that shifty old lady we met in the waiting room again. Why is she running away again? Did she really steal something?"

Old Mrs. Guan was not as quick to react as Lin Ruyan, nor did she have as good eyesight. There were many people walking back and forth in the aisle, and at this time, she couldn't even find Liu Cuiying's back.

"Don't worry about her, she's just a stranger."

Two hours later, the train arrived at Beijing Railway Station. Before getting off the train, Mrs. Guan wanted to say goodbye to Xu Nuannuan.

They came over with their luggage. Old Mrs. Guan said to Xu Nuannuan, "Nuannuan, we have arrived at our destination. We have to say goodbye to you. I wish you a safe journey."

Xu Nuannuan quickly stood up: "Thank you, grandma. Grandma, please go slower too."

“Hey.”

The carriage door opened, and Lin Ruyan helped Old Lady Guan walk a distance in the aisle. Suddenly, she ran back to Xu Nuannuan and whispered to her, "I don't care what your purpose is, but please don't approach my grandmother anymore. My grandmother won't come to the countryside to see you, so just give up on that idea."

After she finished speaking, she immediately turned around and went to look for Old Lady Guan.

Xu Nuannuan wanted to go over and explain things to Lin Ruyan in front of Mrs. Guan, but Mrs. Guan was about to get off the car. Besides, Mrs. Guan herself had a heart disease and could not stand any stimulation. She was afraid that Mrs. Guan would get angry and affect her health, so she had to give up the idea.

She and Old Lady Guan had only met twice. If they were destined to meet, they would definitely meet again. No matter how others tried to stop them, they could do so.

Old Lady Guan asked Lin Ruyan, "What did you say to Nuannuan when you went back just now?"

Lin Ruyan pretended to be mysterious: "Speaking of the topic about our girls' family, Grandma, this is a secret, so don't ask."

"You kept it a secret from me. Since it's your secret, I won't ask."

The two of them got off the train together while talking.

When Liu Cuiying got off the train, she deliberately avoided Old Lady Guan and Lin Ruyan. She waited until they left the station before blending into the crowd and making her way out slowly.

Outside the station, Guan Yurong, dressed in a black Lenin suit, immediately went to greet Mrs. Guan and Lin Ruyan after seeing them.

"Mom, Yan'er, you're finally back. Did you have fun back home?"

"fine."

Guan Yurong pointed to the jeep parked on the side of the road and said, "Mom, our driver is waiting in the car. Let's go home."

"Okay, let's go home."

Old Mrs. Guan got into the jeep, surrounded by Guan Yurong and Lin Ruyan.

Liu Cuiying saw this scene as soon as she came out of the station. Her eyes turned red with jealousy.

His own daughter called someone else "Mom" and helped others get into the car, but he didn't even dare to show his face in front of his daughter.

But her heart was as clear as a mirror.

The daughter was so attentive to Old Lady Guan only because she wanted to gain more benefits from the Guan family. The Guan family was just a tool for her daughter to use.

She deliberately hid in the crowd and only showed her face after the jeep drove away.

Jingshi Station is a large transportation hub. Many people get off the train at Jingshi Station, and many people also get on the train.

At least half of the people in Xu Nuannuan's carriage got off, and more than a dozen people got on. Among them were a few young people carrying luggage who looked about her age. They might have also been sent to the countryside as educated youth.
