While Su Ruobai was enjoying various delicacies on the train.
A military unit's garrison.
A tall, upright man carrying luggage and a bag walked out of the gate of the compound.
Behind them, a row of men with buzz cuts were secretly keeping watch.
"Have they left? Have they left?"
"They're gone, they're gone!"
"Great! I can have a vacation this month!"
"What are you thinking? We still have to train, don't we?"
"You don't understand. Once Xiao Tou leaves, the training intensity returns to normal. Isn't that like a holiday?"
"That seems... right!"
"Of course!"
...
After three days and two nights on the train, and then half a day by car.
They finally arrived at their destination.
Hongqi Commune, Dongping County, Changning City, Liaoning Province.
Hundreds of educated youth gathered together.
A huge, densely packed mass!
The refreshed and spirited feeling I had when I left home was gone.
Everyone smelled sour and foul.
There's nothing I can do; it's June, and I haven't showered for several days.
Only one person was clean and refreshed.
That's Su Ruobai.
She would take a shower, wash her clothes, and dry them in the dryer every time she went to the toilet at night.
However, it's not good to go too far.
And so, the little girl who came with her also secretly prayed for her.
She was already good-looking.
Only now do I realize that this person hardly sweats at all.
A group of young men all looked over here.
A few bolder individuals are already itching to make a move.
"Comrade, as educated youth, we must help each other. My name is Zhou Aiguo, and I'm from Beijing. If you need any help in the future, you can come to me." A young man of seventeen or eighteen said this under the encouragement of others.
He mustered up his courage and approached Su Ruobai.
He was extremely shy and said those words with a blush on his face.
Fortunately, he didn't stutter when he spoke.
The young man only realized it when he got there.
This girl is even prettier.
She has a delicate, boneless appearance, but a sharp, sword-like temperament.
So contradictory, yet so attractive.
The young man was mesmerized.
"No need, thank you." Su Ruobai looked at the people around her.
I was so annoyed I kept frowning.
I have lived in the apocalypse for many years.
She disliked this kind of empty space very much.
Especially with so many people together.
If this were the end of the world, the consequences would be unimaginable.
...
The young man blushed immediately after being retorted.
"Yes, I'm sorry." He fled in panic.
"It's all your fault, you insisted on making me go!" Zhou Aiguo pushed Xu Mingzhao, who had come with him.
His handsome face was full of frustration.
"Haha, be gentle, be gentle." Xu Mingzhao laughed and dodged repeatedly.
And he asked his childhood friend to be gentle.
"Ouch, that hurts! I told you to be gentle!" She grabbed her brother-in-law's wrist and quickly comforted him.
"Alright, alright, just tell me if that girl is pretty or not."
Zhou Aiguo quipped, "Of course it's good-looking."
"As long as they're good-looking, that's fine. If we can get to know them, that's best. If we can't, at least we still talked to them, didn't we?" Xu Mingzhao knew this guy was a stubborn mule.
But if you stroke it in the right direction, it's very easy to fool them.
"You just want to see me make a fool of myself. Look at the letter I wrote to my sister. I'm going to tell her that you're bullying me," Zhou Aiguo said with a face full of resentment.
Xu Mingzhao just wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
"No, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong, isn't that enough?"
"Please forgive me, I won't do it again, I won't do it again." Upon hearing this, Xu Mingzhao immediately surrendered with both hands.
He can't afford to offend that old lady.
"Hmph, see if you dare to bully me again. My sister said you have to take good care of me."
"You deliberately embarrassed me." The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and her eyes welled up with tears.
Zhou Aiguo was, after all, the son of a factory director, and good-looking.
Wherever I go, I'm fawned over by a group of young girls.
As a result, he embarrassed himself as soon as he arrived in the countryside.
I finally took the initiative this time.
In the end, he was rejected.
It's all because of Xu Mingzhao, it's all his fault. If it weren't for him encouraging me...
Even if I really like it, I won't go.
Xu Mingzhao noticed that the little guy's eyes had turned red.
He thought to himself, "Oh no."
"Okay, okay, brother-in-law was wrong. I apologize. How about I treat you to dinner tomorrow?"
"Pah! We're not even engaged yet. If you bully me again, I'll tell my sister."
"Make her stop being with you."
"No, brother-in-law, I know I was wrong. It's a state-run restaurant, you can choose any one you like!" Xu Mingzhao said anxiously.
His wife is a fiercely protective brother.
If she finds out, she'll never be able to play along with me again.
They will definitely delay the engagement for a while.
Sigh, it's all because I had a sharp tongue.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
"You said it, a state-run restaurant, I can order whatever I want." The young man was easy to coax.
They were satisfied with just one meal at a state-run restaurant.
"Okay, okay, I said it, I said it. Sigh, how much does this cost?" He looked deeply saddened and regretful.
"Serves you right for bullying me." The child, Zhou Aiguo, was delighted.
Xu Mingzhao sighed inwardly, thinking, "They're still just kids."
Before leaving, his future father-in-law gave him a thousand yuan and various receipts.
I'm worried that my child won't be able to hold onto the money.
I gave them all to myself.
Xu Mingzhao glanced at the child, whose mood had brightened from gloomy to sunny.
Silly child, you're treating yourself to a meal with your own money and you're so happy.
...
After waiting for a long time, when everyone was getting impatient...
The commune secretary finally arrived, leading a group of brigade leaders and brigade party secretaries.
