Song Zhi quickly reported to the reception point for educated youth, and then waited quietly for people from Dongyang Commune to pick him up.
On the way, Song Zhi had already found out that there were a total of ten educated youth going to Dongyang Commune, five men and five women, which was not a large number.
Song Ruanruan and she were in the same commune, and because they were sisters, the higher-ups had specifically instructed that the two of them should be placed in the same place.
Song Zhi knew that Song Anshan's manipulation was definitely involved, and the two of them were assigned to the Dongfanghong Brigade.
"The Eastern Brigade assembles here!"
Not long after, Song Zhi heard a loud male voice shouting "Eastern Brigade".
As the team leader Long Deshou shouted again and again, seven or eight people came to him one after another.
The five men and two women took a look at the fair and tender Song Ruanruan and Song Zhi who was wrapped tightly like a little penguin next to her. Long Deshou sighed, and his eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and then they twisted away in the next second!
Long Deshou had already started to worry after hearing the news that two more female educated youth were coming, but after seeing Song Zhi and Song Ruanruan, he became even more depressed.
Come on, there are two more of you like this. You can tell from your delicate skin and tender flesh that you are not cut out for work!
But since everyone had arrived, Long Deshou could only lead this group of people to the educated youth village with a sad face.
When Song Zhi was at home, he had already put everything he needed into the space. The suitcase he brought was just for show, as it was empty inside, so it was effortless and very easy to carry.
But Song Ruanruan was different. The things Song Ruanruan brought were similar to Song Zhi's, and they were all packed in a suitcase, which she could hardly carry.
"Hey, Song Zhi, didn't you see that I don't understand? Come over and help me."
Song Ruanruan still gave Song Zhi orders as usual, but Song Zhi ignored her this time. She turned a blind eye and quickly caught up with the captain.
Song Ruanruan didn't expect Song Zhi to refuse, but Song Zhi walked too fast. When she looked up again, she could only see Song Zhi's back.
There was no other way, she had to suck her runny nose and lift the box with great effort, carrying a bunch of things and walking forward. Even so, she still fell behind the team.
The road to the educated youth village was not easy to walk on. It had not been paved and was covered with mud and sand. As the group walked along the road, a gray village appeared in front of them.
Because it was winter, the place looked bare, and when the wind blew, everyone's faces were covered with mud and sand.
Because of the cold weather, there was nothing to do, so no one went out. There were only a few of them on the empty road, making it seem even more desolate.
The houses in the village are not like those in the city. The better ones have tile roofs, but most of them are made of adobe.
The villagers they met on the road simply greeted them without much enthusiasm after seeing their attire.
After all, for the people in the village, educated youth are no longer a rare thing these days.
When I first went to the countryside, the villagers were very happy because they thought they had helpers, and young intellectuals at that.
But when they went to the fields, the villagers discovered that most of the educated youth could not carry anything on their shoulders or lift anything with their hands. Not only could they not help them, but they also became a hindrance.
So now when they see the educated youth, they are not only not enthusiastic, but even feel a little disgusted.
After following the leader for more than an hour on the dirt road, everyone finally arrived at the educated youth dormitory and stopped.
The dormitory for the educated youths was said to be a renovated house from a former landlord's house, but what they saw before them was clearly a rickety, dilapidated little bungalow.
"This is your dormitory. On the left is the girls' dormitory, on the right is the boys' dormitory, and in the middle is the cafeteria. In addition, we also have a separate kitchen."
After that, the team leader took them around the dormitory and introduced it to them.
"From today on, everyone is a member of our Dongfang Brigade. We must obey orders and contribute our own efforts to rural development."
The team leader is worthy of being the team leader. After briefly explaining the work requirements to them, he did not forget to brainwash them.
"Okay, now that we have a general understanding, let's talk about the dormitory allocation for everyone. You two female comrades will follow the arrangements of our female educated youth team leader."
The two female comrades were handed over to the captain of the female educated youth team.
Rong Zhengqing, the captain of the female educated youth team, was a kind-looking woman in her early thirties, slightly plump, wearing glasses and two signature pigtails.
On the other side, the male educated youth were arranged by the team leader because the team leader was not there.
Rong Zhengqing first took Song Zhi and Song Ruanruan to advance 20 kilograms of sorghum flour and 10 kilograms of corn flour, and told them that these pre-prepared grains would have to be repaid in the future by earning work points.
"These grains are loaned to you, but you have to pay them back in the future!"
Song Ruanruan looked down at these things and pouted. She had been used to eating refined rice and noodles since she was a child with the Song family, so she naturally disliked these coarse grains.
"We came all this way here and this is what we're given to eat?"
Her words were full of disgust, and what she said happened to be heard by someone at this moment.
"If you don't want to eat these things, then give them to me."
Although she felt disgusted, Song Ruanruan was not stupid. If she really gave these things to others, how would she eat in the future?
"Who said I don't want to eat these things? I'm just not used to it!"
Song Ruanruan immediately changed her lipstick and followed the captain into the dormitory noisily.
After entering the dormitory, problems arose.
There were originally five rooms in the girls' dormitory, one for each of the four female educated youth. There was one room left, which was converted into a storage room.
But now with the addition of Song Zhi and her two companions, the situation has become six people sharing five rooms. With one more person, it means that one room has to accommodate two people.
The dormitory conditions were already very difficult, and no one wanted to live with another person. Faced with such a difficult problem, they finally chose to draw lots.
I don’t know if it was because Song Ruanruan’s luck was too bad, but she drew a double room right away, so Song Zhi naturally got a single room.
When Song Ruanruan saw that she had drawn a double room, she immediately became unhappy.
"I don't want to live in a double room. It's too crowded for two people. I want a single room. Song Zhi, I want to switch with you!"
The other party said this with confidence.
