Since she had only been on the train for less than half an hour, the person in charge at the train station quickly sent a telegram to contact people at the next station to see whether to take her home or to the hospital.
After Lin Qingqing was helped off the train by the train attendant, the train stopped at the platform for half an hour to pick up other educated youth from other places who were going to the countryside, and then continued its journey.
The male lead felt a pang of regret after seeing the female supporting character get off the train, as he had lost a long-term meal ticket. However, he was also glad that she had fallen ill on the train. If she had fallen ill in the rural area, he would have been held responsible.
After Lin Qingqing left, the male and female leads openly began to flirt, much to the dismay of the others around them.
After all, when they first boarded the train, the male lead and the female supporting character were quite intimate. The female supporting character had just had an accident and was vomiting blood, while the male lead was flirting with other people, which made the others feel that he was a bit embarrassing.
In the end, almost everyone decided that if they were assigned to the same place after going to the countryside, they would stay far away from them, including the female lead's future admirer, who also decided to stay far away from them.
After all, as the female lead of a small world, she always has a few sycophants helping her with chores. Otherwise, given her delicate and frail appearance, she definitely wouldn't earn many work points, and when she distributes the food, there wouldn't be any food to distribute.
Tang Baozhu quite enjoyed watching the spectacle, because she had just scanned the male and female protagonists' luggage with her divine sense. The two of them had less than 100 yuan in total. Compared to bread, she wondered how much love was worth.
Then he noticed the looks on the faces of the other people around him, and found it quite amusing. He hoped that the place he was going to was not too far from theirs, so that when he had nothing to do, he could go up and have a good look at the melon.
Tang Baozhu didn't chat with anyone else the whole way, treating herself as a mute. When others talked, she just listened and ate her way of gossiping about the male and female leads next door.
Time passed quickly, and soon they arrived at the place where they were to be sent to the countryside. When Tang Baozhu came out of the train station, she felt the climate outside and thought that spending the summer in the north seemed quite nice.
It's much cooler than when I'm at home.
After getting off the train, the first thing Tang Baozhu did was to pick up her luggage, find a particularly secluded place, and take out the things she had packed in her spatial dimension.
As for the package I brought from home, I didn't put it into my space. I figured I could wear some old clothes when I went out, so there was no need to waste those nice clothes.
When others saw the package Tang Baozhu took out, they simply assumed that she had just picked it up from the post office when no one was looking, and they didn't suspect anything.
After everyone got off at the train station, they thought they would go directly to the courtyard of the educated youth office to gather, but unexpectedly they were asked to leave the town and all the educated youth gathered outside the town.
There's no need to rush like that. At least we can let everyone go to the state-run restaurants to buy some food. The speed at which we're moving makes it seem like the state-run restaurants are out of food and afraid we'll buy them out of business.
After all, it's almost lunchtime. Even if I'm not treating everyone to a meal, I think it's time for everyone to go buy some food, right?
After gathering outside the town, people from the villages had already come to pick them up in oxcarts, with each village's headman leading a few people.
When Tang Baozhu saw the captain from her memories, she really couldn't believe it. The kind old man looked so kind, yet he wasn't a good person.
However, Tang Baozhu had experienced too many worlds and lived too long. After taking a closer look at the captain, she felt that something was off about him. He looked like a martial arts expert.
When she returned to the village with the brigade leader, she discovered that everyone in the village over 30 years old had trained.
This made Tang Baozhu suspicious. In this era, almost everyone in the village had practiced martial arts, making it hard for her not to suspect that they might have come from a bandit's den.
After all, most of the bandits were eliminated after the founding of the People's Republic of China. However, some farsighted people took advantage of the period before the founding of the PRC to occupy a piece of land and enter a village. It could be said that the entire village was composed of former bandits.
After having suspicions, Tang Baozhu decided to observe carefully. If it was true, she would definitely send everyone in the village in and let them eat free meals.
In this day and age, having free meals is certainly a good thing.
Then give them a good scare with the Heavenly Thunder Talisman. Those with guilty consciences shouldn't be able to withstand the fright. Once they're frightened, their secrets will be exposed.
After thinking it through, Tang Baozhu finally had time to look at the few people next to her. They were the educated youth who had come to this village together with her.
There were only five people in total, including three men and one woman, plus Tang Baozhu. After the brigade leader sent everyone to the educated youth settlement, he left directly without caring whether they had a place to stay or what they ate.
The older educated youth seemed quite used to it, looking at the newcomers with pity, and then told them to quickly go inside and settle down, and to eat their food for the time being.
After we've eaten our fill, we can go to the brigade headquarters to buy grain, but the grain there is quite expensive, almost the same price as on the black market.
After the first year when the older educated youth suffered losses, they worked like crazy in the second year and never went to the brigade headquarters to buy grain again.
As Tang Baozhu and the others listened to the introductions from the veteran educated youth, they learned that the longest they had stayed here was five years.
Listening to their words, it turns out that there were educated youth here 7 or 8 years ago, but those educated youth either married people in the village or died mysteriously, and no one knows what happened.
After staying there for a while, they realized that this village wasn't easy to navigate, and that they should always travel together to avoid getting into trouble.
In just the last few years, two female educated youths have died, and three others have married into the village. There are also three sons-in-law who have moved in with their families. Although none of these marriages were voluntary, there was no other way; they simply had no choice.
Tang Baozhu never expected that even though they were already living in such dire straits, these former educated youths didn't even think about reporting to the police in the commune; they were only thinking about defense and never about taking the initiative.
After learning about the situation at the educated youth settlement, Tang Baozhu went into the room where she would be staying. There were already seven female educated youths sleeping in the room, and she figured that if she added two more, they could squeeze in.
Fortunately, half of the room was covered with kang beds, otherwise there really wouldn't have been enough room for so many people to sleep.
