215: Enemies meet on a narrow road, it’s all over.
Yu Jiahui reluctantly took out ten yuan from his newly received salary and prepared to send it back to his hometown.
Yu Jiahui wrote another letter back using a pencil and his exercise book.
The letter was written in his own voice and addressed to his elder brother Yu Jiawang.
Yu Jiahui had no memories of the people in his hometown. He had no idea what they looked like and had no feelings for them, so the letter was very brief and did not even fill a whole page.
I simply told them to settle down here and everything was fine, and asked people back home not to worry about me. I sent ten dollars back to pay off part of the debt first, and I would pay back the rest slowly later.
After writing, Yu Xiaoye tore up the letter:
"It just so happens that I have to go to the field office with Secretary Jia tomorrow, so I might as well send the money and the letter while I'm there."
When the old couple heard that she was going out with Jia Song again, they asked her sensitively:
"Why are you going to the field office?"
Yu Xiaoye told her parents that Jia Song asked her to join the propaganda team.
Yu Jiahui was slightly surprised:
"You want to join the propaganda team?"
Yu Xiaoye folded the letter and shook his head:
"No, I probably won't be able to get in. I just went with Secretary Jia. I don't think I'll be selected. Besides, I don't want to get in."
When Xu Ying heard that she didn't want to join the propaganda team, she became curious:
"Why don't you want to come in?"
Xu Ying probably guessed something: "Will the female lead also be in the publicity team by then?"
Yu Xiaoye nodded:
"Well, the book says that the hero used his connections to get the heroine into the propaganda team. With those two around, I don't want to be cannon fodder. Besides, you don't know, Mom, a series of terrible things will happen over there!"
As Yu Xiaoye spoke, a look of horror appeared on his face.
Xu Ying became even more curious:
"What's going on? Is there another murder case?"
Yu Xiaoye shook his head:
"It's more terrible than murder!"
Xu Ying didn't dare to ask any more questions and kept saying:
"Then don't go, don't go. Let's just stay in the company peacefully and don't join in the fun!"
Early the next morning.
Yu Jiahui had already left for work. Yu Xiaoye had just put down his work and was about to take out the letter he had written to Cuihua yesterday and read it to his second brother. Before he could even begin, a series of bicycle bells rang out at the door:
"Yu Xiaoye, let's go!"
Yu Xiaoye sighed silently at the letter paper. Fortunately, he ate quickly. If he had been two seconds late, he would not have finished his meal.
Yu Xiaoye folded the letter again, got off the bed and put on his shoes.
Yu Erye half-knelt and half-sat with his bowl in hand, and said eagerly:
"Xiao Ye, please read it to me!"
Yu Xiaoye sat on the edge of the kang, bent over to put on his shoes, and said:
"Didn't you hear the ringing outside? It's like a death knell. I'll recite it to you when I get back."
"You'll forget it when you get back."
"I can't forget it!" I wrote it myself, how could I forget it?
Yu Xiaoye put on his shoes and rummaged through the other things on his body. He found ten dollars, two letters, and a net bag, and was ready to go to the field office's sales point to buy some household items.
Jia Song outside couldn't wait any longer:
"Yu Xiaoye, why are you dawdling so slowly? Hurry up and leave!"
"Can't you just wait for me?" Yu Xiaoye also shouted outside with all his strength.
Yu Xiaoye counted the things he needed to take at his own pace before walking out.
Xu Ying went out to see her off and reminded her not to forget to buy some lamp oil, toothpaste and toothbrush, toilet paper, some cotton thread, pencils and exercise books. She gave her a lot of instructions.
Yu Xiaoye remembered it all.
When they arrived outside the yard, Jia Song was waiting for her on his bicycle with one foot on the ground. He did not complain to Yu Xiaoye in front of Xu Ying.
Yu Xiaoye jumped onto the back seat of Jia Song's bicycle.
The first time she sat on the back of someone's bicycle in the 1970s, she was very reserved and chose a more ladylike sitting posture, sitting sideways.
Unexpectedly, Jia Song turned his head and said mercilessly:
"Don't let me sit like this. Ride. I'm too lazy to carry people like this. I won't care if you fall and break your legs."
Yu Xiaoye: Brother Jia really doesn’t treat me as a woman!
Yu Xiaoye had no choice but to jump down, lift his legs, and sit on the back seat carelessly.
Jia Song looked back to see that she was sitting firmly, then he said goodbye to Xu Ying and left.
It was a morning in late spring and early summer, and a light mist was still floating in the fields.
Sitting in the car, the cool mist blew straight onto my face.
Yu Xiaoye suddenly thought of a question:
"Brother Jia, have you registered our household registration?"
"I have."
"My second brother is here, can you report him as well?"
Jia Song didn't say anything, as if he was too lazy to pay attention.
The two chatted casually and soon arrived at the site.
Jia Song stopped his bicycle in front of a row of offices, locked it, and turned to face Yu Xiaoye and said:
"I'll take you to see Section Chief Cui of the Publicity Department later. If he asks you to perform a song, dance, or other talent, don't be nervous. Just do it confidently and don't embarrass me. Do you understand?"
Yu Xiaoye nodded nervously.
She was nervous not because of the performance, but because she was worried about how to naturally show her lack of ability and failure to meet the admission requirements, while trying not to bring shame to Jia Song.
She was thinking about this all the way.
Let’s wait and see how the situation develops.
As far as she knew, the propaganda team only accepted ten people, so as long as her performance ranked around twelfth, she would not be admitted.
So, she had to try to strike a balance.
Hopefully, she won't be brought on too early.
She followed Jia Song into the auditorium of the field office.
Compared to those low earthen houses and those brick houses, the auditorium can be called grand, with a high roof and a wide door, which is much more impressive than the brick houses on both sides.
Meetings, events, and movie screenings are all held here.
The propaganda team will also rehearse programs here in the future.
It can be said that many things in the book happen here, so Yu Xiaoye is quite familiar with this place.
She was still looking around when she suddenly heard Jia Song say "Hey Yo" in a high-pitched voice:
"Hey yo!"
Yu Xiaoye quickly withdrew his gaze and asked:
"how--"
Before he could even utter the word "了", he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking towards him. Yu Xiaoye was startled:
Oh my god, it’s Li Xinchun again?!
When Li Xinchun saw them come in, he was stunned and stopped immediately.
A beautiful female educated youth next to Li Xinchun also stopped.
The female educated youth was wearing a white Dacron shirt with a red woolen vest over it. She had a military satchel slung across her shoulder, a long-sleeved jacket draped over her arm, and a pair of Liberation shoes on her feet.
A thick and long braid was swung in front of her chest.
She had the delicate air of a lady from a wealthy family on her face.
When Yu Xiaoye saw this dazzling and fashionable outfit and this soft and fair appearance, his heart trembled:
Oh my god, this is the heroine Chen Ci, right? !
Look at the shining halo of the heroine, it almost blinded my eyes!
Yu Xiaoye knew that the heroine would also join the propaganda team, but he never expected that he would run into her head-on!
The key is, the male lead is also there!
Her parents just dealt with the male protagonist's family two days ago. Now they meet their enemies again. They are doomed!
Then I heard the heroine Chen Ci ask softly:
"Brother Xinchun, what's wrong?"
