After breakfast, Chen Qiangwei and Wang Xiaomai went to the brigade headquarters to collect farm tools and wait for the brigade leader to arrange work.
Grandma Gu San was deeply devastated by the loss of her son, and her health is not as good as before.
Since her husband and grandson are martyrs, the brigade would generally not assign her a job.
During the busy farming season, we were only assigned to do some light work, such as watching over the rice in the threshing yard.
They arrived neither too early nor too late, and there were neither too many nor too few people queuing in front of them. Some people had already received their farm tools and went to work together.
At this time, Huang Meixia from the educated youth camp waved to the two of them, "Chen Qiangwei, Wang Xiaomai, over here."
Chen Qiangwei looked in the direction of the sound and saw that all the educated youth at the educated youth point were there, more than twenty people occupying a small area, looking a little out of place with the members of the Huaihua Brigade.
The educated youth had at least a junior high school education and at most a high school education, and they all came from big cities and had the air of "city people".
Although I have been in the countryside for some time, this atmosphere still exists.
The sun had been hiding for a winter, and the educated youth's skin had become white again. However, the members of the Huaihua Brigade had their skin tanned and shiny due to years of farm work, and it would be difficult for it to become white again.
Chen Qiangwei and Wang Xiaomai walked quickly towards Huang Meixia and the others, "Hello, Sister Meixia."
It was already late when they first arrived. Gu Aiguo, Chen Qiangwei and Wang Xiaomai came and left in a hurry, and Huang Meixia didn't have time to observe them.
She was a little surprised at Chen Qiangwei's beauty. She was 1.7 meters tall and had a tall and fit body.
Even a loose coarse cloth dress could not hide her slim waist, plump buttocks and plump breasts, which made her look very fertile.
If it weren't for her overly beautiful face, she would definitely be the best candidate for daughter-in-law in the eyes of the aunts in the team.
In the past two days, they learned from Xu Hongli that Chen Qiangwei should have a good family background, but Xu Hongli did not mention Chen Qiangwei's appearance.
Huang Meixia put away the surprise in her eyes and asked, "Hello, are you used to the past two days?"
After waiting for two days, they still didn't see the two people come to visit these elder brothers and sisters at the educated youth center. The people at the educated youth center were still criticizing Chen Qiangwei and the others for being ignorant.
"It's not bad. Grandma San is very nice. But I got up late on the first day and used up a lot of her firewood, so I went up the mountain to find it.
The next day I had to go to the city to mail letters and make phone calls, so I was unable to visit everyone at the educated youth camp. I felt really bad about that.”
Huang Meixia nodded after hearing this and said, "As long as you are happy living here, that's good. Third Grandma's house is a brick house with plenty of space."
Xu Hongli felt a little regretful after hearing what Huang Meixia said. If she had not been so anxious that night, maybe she could have lived in a spacious brick house.
Instead of like now, where several people sleep on a big bunk bed and it is difficult to turn over.
The other old educated youth looked a little strange after hearing what Chen Qiangwei said, but the next moment they nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Third Grandma is really a very nice and kind person."
I thought to myself, this new guy is amazing, he really knows how to flatter.
The captain is the nephew of Gu Sannai, and he usually takes good care of Gu Sannai. Who dares to say a word against Gu Sannai in front of the captain?
Seeing that everyone misunderstood her meaning, Chen Qiangwei did not explain.
Chen Qiangwei asked the question in her heart, "Sister Meihua, what is our task today? Don't we have to line up to get farm tools?"
"Right now, the only farm work is weeding and tilling the soil. We're all working together, and the team leader will make the arrangements for us later."
Huang Meixia has been in Huaihua Brigade for five years and she knows exactly what work to do and when.
The other side.
Seeing that all the educated youth had arrived, Gu Aiguo instructed his youngest son to arrange jobs for them.
"Xiaowu, take the educated youth to Jiertan."
Gu Anyang was staring blankly at the location where the educated youth were.
"Xiaowu, Xiaowu, what are you standing there for?"
"Ah? Oh, I get it, Dad." He heard the old educated youth call her. It turned out that her name was Chen Qiangwei, what a nice name.
Gu Aiguo looked at his youngest son with some worry: He looked listless and flushed. Could he really be sick? He looked fine when he woke up this morning.
"If you feel unwell, go to the barefoot doctor and get medicine yourself."
"It's nothing, I'm fine. Dad, I'll go first." Gu Anyang said without forgetting to look at Chen Qiangwei.
He is tall. Among the crowd of people who are generally around 1.6 to 1.7 meters tall, he stands out from the crowd at over 1.8 meters.
Gu Anyang noticed Chen Qiangwei as soon as she arrived. He didn't expect that the beauty he met yesterday was actually the new educated youth in their brigade.
After his mother told him yesterday that there were new educated youth in the team, he had a vague premonition.
"Ahem, today's task is to go to Jiertan to weed and till the soil. Everyone, go get a hoe, shovel, and dustpan from the custodian first."
After Gu Anyang finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Chen Qiangwei again, and quickly shifted his gaze before Chen Qiangwei noticed. Well, she is not only good-looking, but also walks beautifully.
Gu Anyang is eighteen years old this year. Most of the young men of his age in the village have already married and had children.
Gu Anyang, who received high school education in the city, has more open and advanced ideas than his fellow villagers, and still has aspirations and yearnings for the opposite sex.
He hopes that his other half will fall in love freely and be married to someone they love, rather than just following a matchmaker to set a date.
Although the country has been advocating the elimination of outdated feudal ideas for several years, marriage is no longer a rigid process of parents' orders and matchmaker's words.
However, in backward rural areas, men and women still rely on matchmakers to introduce them to each other, and if they are attracted to each other, they set a date for the wedding.
In some places, the man goes to the woman's house to see her. If the woman is satisfied, she will serve him a cup of sugar water, so that the man knows that the woman likes him.
If the man also likes the woman, his parents and the matchmaker will bring gifts to the woman's house to choose a date.
