Chapter 31 Chen Qingyan and Wen Ting are anxious
The news about the quota for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University had spread throughout the village before the next day, especially the educated youth center.
All night, the educated youth in the educated youth center were excited and nervous, and no one could sleep well all night.
The next day, Cui Xiongnian rang the village bell and notified everyone to go to the sun field for a meeting.
In addition to talking about the central ideas of the meeting, the most exciting news was that their village had won the advanced brigade and the two quotas for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
Compared with the educated youth, the villagers were happier about the advanced brigade, because it was not only a matter of honor, but also meant that they could get more money at the end of the year.
Cui Xiongnian didn't know who to give the quota to for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. He adhered to the principle of fairness and planned to let those who wanted to go to register with him, and then assign tasks collectively. The two best people would get the quota.
The educated youth accepted this proposal very much. Whoever had the ability would get the quota, and there was no need to fight over it and make everyone bloody.
The meeting ended quickly, because the town had not yet distributed this year's money, Cui Xiongnian planned to distribute the grain and money later.
Although many people in the village were already anxious, they suppressed their excitement when they heard that the money had not been distributed yet, and went home to wait.
The educated youth didn't know what tasks Cui Xiongnian would assign, but it was not difficult to guess.
Although the double rush has passed, it is still a long way to go before winter, and the village can still plant one more crop, so it is very likely that they will be arranged to do farm work.
The old educated youth are not afraid, as they have been in the countryside for a long time and have adapted to farm work, but for the new educated youth, such as Chen Qingyan, Wenting and Cao Yibing, it is very challenging.
"What should I do? Such a good opportunity, if I can't get that quota, I don't know how long I will have to stay in the countryside!"
In the educated youth courtyard, Wenting sneaked into Chen Qingyan's room as soon as she came back, complaining non-stop, and didn't notice Chen Qingyan's irritable face at all.
The educated youth site in Daping Village is relatively good. The former abandoned primary school was simply repaired and given to the educated youth to live in.
Although it is not that good, it is better than living in a big dormitory in other villages. At least everyone can have their own room.
"The quota is in the hands of the captain. What's the point of us being anxious? We might as well think about how to complete the task." Chen Qingyan responded absent-mindedly.
He was also very anxious. The quota for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University is not available every year. If he can't get a quota this year, his hope of returning to the city will be even slimmer.
Thinking about it again, Cui Xue is Cui Xiongnian's daughter. According to the previous relationship, he could have gotten the quota by fooling her. Who knew...
Thinking about the original plan to frame Cui Xue, but in the end, she didn't hold the handle, but held the handle instead. Chen Qingyan couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"What mission! It's for us. If we are asked to work, how can we compare with those educated youth who came earlier than us? Ah, ah, I'm so angry!"
Wen Ting yelled angrily, which made Chen Qingyan frown. He took a deep breath, trying to resist the urge to rush her.
"Don't get excited. Let's sign up first and think of a solution after we know what the mission is."
"What can we do? I was thinking of writing a letter back to ask my parents to help me with some money. Now the captain is doing this, isn't it just to let everyone's eyes be on us? What else can we do?"
Wen Ting was so angry when she thought of this.
As soon as she heard that there was a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, she thought about writing a letter back home to raise some money for her, so as to bribe Cui Xiongnian to give her a place.
Who knew that Cui Xiongnian would not play by the rules and would not pursue fairness and justice? Now she doesn't dare to use any tricks.
"How about... you go find Cui Xue again?" Wen Ting didn't know why she suddenly thought of Cui Xue. After hesitating for a while, she still mentioned it.
Chen Qingyan's heart moved, thinking of the last time Cui Xue gave her the address of the newspaper, and several of the articles she sent were included. He also received some royalties, and the hard times were over.
Because of this, he wondered if Cui Xue still had some friendship for him, but was just angry that he had plotted against her with Wen Ting before.
After hearing Wen Ting's suggestion, he was even more excited. If Wen Ting was not still here, he would have gone to find Cui Xue.
"Her... have you forgotten what she said before? Do you think she will help us?" Chen Qingyan suppressed his excitement and pretended to be nice in front of Wen Ting.
After hearing what he said, Wen Ting's suspicious and sharp eyes softened. She couldn't help but feel happy that Chen Qingyan didn't really like Cui Xue.
"We have to try it, what if she..." Wen Ting paused with some pleasure, "still has feelings for you? If you give her a chance, won't she be willing to help you?"
Chen Qingyan looked at her in surprise.
After being looked at like this by him, Wen Ting immediately turned her eyes away with guilt, not daring to look at him.
I'm afraid he didn't expect that Wen Ting would sacrifice even her favorite person for a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, no, it should be said that for returning to the city.
He was very uncomfortable to say that Chen Qingyan gave Cui Xue a step down, which was equivalent to asking him to sell his body or feelings.
"You..."
"I know my idea is wrong, but this is our last chance, isn't it?"
Fearing that he would say something unpleasant, Wen Ting interrupted him directly and showed weakness. Chen Qingyan was speechless.
He looked at Wen Ting deeply for a long time before retracting his gaze and said lightly: "Let me think about it."
Knowing that he was angry, Wen Ting didn't say anything more. She gritted her teeth and turned away.
He said he was considering it, but after registering with Cui Xiongnian the next day, he found an opportunity to go to the sheepfold.
Smelling the sheep odor from a distance, Chen Qingyan frowned, with an expression of impatience and forbearance.
But after approaching the sheep pen, his expression changed, with a gentle smile on his face, which was exactly the look Cui Xue liked in the past.
"Xiaoxue."
Cui Xue, who had just tidied up the sheep pen and was about to take a break, heard someone calling her.
Looking in the direction of the voice, she saw Chen Qingyan's face, which had regained its gentle and elegant appearance, and his expression suddenly turned cold.
"Is there something?"
"I have something I want to talk to you alone."
Cui Xue opened her mouth to refuse, but suddenly thought of something. After a moment of silence, she motioned him to talk aside.
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. I'm busy."
Not wanting to waste time with him, Cui Xue stopped a few meters away from the sheepfold.
This was a downwind spot, and the smell of sheep on Cui Xue's body drifted to Chen Qingyan, making him feel uncomfortable and move a few steps to the side.
He thought he was being discreet, but Cui Xue actually saw all his movements.
She sneered in her heart, and was sure that this person hadn't been holding back when he came to see her.
