Chapter 53 A Good Potential Husband (2/2)



Although he ate quickly, he didn't come across as rude.

After clearing away the dishes, he pulled Song Qinghe outside.

Observing his every move, Song Qinghe could only say that people trained by the country are the most reliable.

Look, Lu Zhaolin is really a good husband material.

Lu Zhaolin walked beside her, keeping pace with Song Qinghe's steps, and occasionally glancing at her.

They were afraid that Song Qinghe might step on the pebbles on the ground and accidentally fall, which would be troublesome.

The village committee compound is about 700 meters away from Lu Zhaolin's small courtyard. The two walked through the village path for about five minutes and arrived at the gate of the compound.

At this time, a number of educated youth and villagers had gathered around, waiting to be assigned jobs.

The educated youth stood on one side, and the villagers on the other.

Some people squatted on the ground smoking, while others squatted on the side chatting, waiting for everyone to arrive so they could take attendance and then head to the edge of the field.

The village chief will then assign the day's tasks, what each person should do, which plot of land they should be responsible for, who will partner with whom, and what work needs to be done today.

When the time comes, the scorekeeper will record the score on time, ensuring fairness and impartiality.

At the end of the year, the corresponding amount of grain will be distributed according to the work done by each person.

After deducting the public funds, what's left is their food rations for the year.

In such situations, the more laborers in the household, the more they benefit.

After all, the more work points you have, the more you'll be allocated, and life will be much easier afterward.

There were no dormitories for educated youth in the village, so they had to stay in villagers' homes.

The educated youth would also give a portion of their allocated grain to the landlord as their rent.

In reality, many educated youth were not good at working and were lazy. When they stayed in farmers' homes, they were lazy and didn't do anything.

When you calculate it carefully throughout the year, the villagers often have to contribute some grain to support them.

Many people are already unhappy; it's already difficult enough to support oneself these days.

Now they're being asked to support some unrelated educated youth; how could they possibly be happy about that?

But there's nothing we can do if we're not happy about it; that's just the way things are in the village.

Anyone who's unhappy or unwilling to speak up will be in for a beating.

Lu Jinguang is no pushover; he's not someone to be trifled with.

I heard that several more educated youths have come to the village and were assigned to villagers' homes yesterday.

One for each family, that's fair and impartial.

No one could find fault with it.

Everyone wanted to see what kind of people these educated youth were, whether they were capable or not.

If they're capable, that's fine; if they're incapable, then they're just a burden.

Just thinking about it makes me anxious!

Not only were the villagers worried, but the educated youth who had arrived earlier were also worried. Everyone silently observed those unfamiliar faces.

Well, these guys don't look like much at all; they're not the type to get any work done.

When Song Qinghe walked over, many eyes, both openly and secretly, were sizing her up.

Upon closer inspection, disappointment was hard to conceal.

Well, this guy doesn't look like he's cut out for any kind of work!

But why did Lu Zhaolin come here too?

Everyone in Lujia Village knows Lu Zhaolin!

Only one golden phoenix flew out of the whole village, and instead of staying in Beijing, it came back on its own.

Normally, Lu Zhaolin stays in the army and doesn't come back often. Even when he does come back, he doesn't show his face.

He's walking with a girl now, what's their relationship?

Could it be—
