When the educated youth received this news, every one of them was very excited.

"It's recruited! It's recruited!"

The state-owned factories came to the village to recruit people, and the most promising ones were the educated youth who had been sent down to the countryside. Several people in charge from the machinery factory, the textile factory and the commune came and set up a recruitment table in the spacious yard of the team leader's house.

The right to recommend factories for recruitment lies with the commune, and the team leader is the person with the most say in the village.

All the labor in the village was assigned by him.

The captain's family was the most fair and just. When they came to recruit people in the past, some people secretly asked their connections in the city to buy good things for the captain, but the captain didn't take anything.

Before 1976, new educated youth would come to the village every year. If they wanted their families to live better, they would send gifts to the team leader's house. As time went by, only the old educated youth knew about this.

The old educated youth had also learned their lesson and would not tell the new educated youth about this. As long as there were new educated youth who were lazy, the chances of them being called back to the city would be greater.

In the past two years, no more educated youth have been sent to the countryside. The only way for educated youth to go to the countryside is through recruitment and college entrance examinations. Those who are still staying in the village are those who failed the college entrance examinations.

This year's educated youth have worked very hard so that they can be seen by the captain and recommended during the recruitment.

The machinery factory and textile factory had a limited number of vacancies, only ten in total, while the educated youth site had more than twenty people.

The competitive pressure is unimaginable.

But Zhou Anze is a smart one.

The woman from the commune, 덿Ren, also lived in Dahe Village. He had established a relationship with the village woman 덿Ren early on, and had been waiting for this day.

When the state-owned factories came to recruit, they would interview these educated youth one by one, then stay in the village for two days to observe their working conditions, and finally the village cadres would make recommendations.

The first day of interviews passed quickly.

late at night.

In the quiet night, the cold wind blew, making the branches rustle. Only a faint bright moon hung in the sky, casting a little silver light.

The villagers who make a living by working have already turned off the lights and gone to bed. Only at this point is it suitable to do some shameful things.

A black figure wrapped in a loose cotton coat tiptoed away from the educated youth camp and arrived in front of a house with dim lights.

He knocked on the door lightly, and soon, with a creak, the door was opened and Zhou Anze was pulled in.

Soon the sound of crows and phoenixes falling could be heard from inside.

In just half an hour, Zhou Anze was so exhausted that he leaned against the head of the bed to rest with the woman in his arms.

Seeing him stop, the woman in his arms immediately became unhappy, "Go on."

Zhou Anze lowered his head and kissed the woman, "Take a break and then continue. Be good."

The woman seemed to be coaxed by him and leaned on Zhou Anze tenderly.

The woman was the village widow Ren Zhang, who was only ten years old, a dozen years older than Zhou Anze. When she first had this idea, Zhou Anze was not very happy.

In order to leave Dahe Village, he endured humiliation and tried to please Widow Zhang. Now that the people from the state-owned factory had finally come to recruit him, he was finally freed.

I can't help but feel happy just thinking about it.

Widow Zhang saw the smile on his face and raised her head from Zhou Anze's chest. "You are very happy today. Is it because you are finally leaving the village? Or is it because you are leaving me?"

Zhou Anze immediately heard the dissatisfaction in her tone, bent down and kissed her on the lips, "How can I bear to leave you? When I get the recruitment instructions to return to the city and my work is stable, I will come to marry you. When the factory opens a house, you can move in with me in the city."

When he spoke, his eyes were full of tenderness.

The best thing about him is that he can tell lies that sound convincing enough.

Dahe Village was full of rough men. After Widow Zhang's husband died, she didn't like any of them anymore. Then, Zhou Anze appeared, and she fell in love with this educated youth with fair hair and powdered face at first sight.

He is totally different from the rough guys in the village.

But she was not stupid, she knew why the other party approached her.

If she hadn't been pampering Zhou Anze in the past two years, Zhou Anze would have suffered so much and would not have had so much time to seduce Miss 께.

However, seeing how much effort Zhou Anze put into her, she just turned a blind eye to his thoughts.

But during this time, Widow Zhang gradually began to fall in love with him. She was very happy to hear these sweet words. She raised her hand and put it around Zhou Anze's neck. "I'm waiting for you to marry me. If you don't marry me, hum..."

Zhou Anze heard the threat in the last part of the snort. He was used to coaxing people, "How can that be possible? If I don't marry you, I will be struck by lightning."

Widow Zhang was completely delighted. Zhou Anze seized the opportunity and said, "What about the recruitment indicator——"

"Just think about this." Widow Zhang raised a finger and tapped his head. "I'm familiar with the person in charge of recruiting people from the machinery factory. I guarantee that this will be a success, but..."

Widow Zhang paused for a moment. "I see that the competition among you educated youth is quite fierce. I am afraid it is not appropriate for a woman like me to suddenly recommend you, a man—"

Seeing Zhou Anze's increasingly nervous eyes, Widow Zhang smiled and said, "I can invite Yuan Qiang, the head of the machinery factory, to come to our house. Although he is married, he likes to pick wild flowers outside. If you can get him a symbolic wild flower, your entry into the machinery factory will be a sure thing."

......

—

Jiang Xi had a very comfortable time during this period. If it weren't for those fans of Zhou Anze at the educated youth point, she would have lived an even more comfortable life.

Zhou Anze blamed her for his sprained arm, and these educated youth became malicious towards her after hearing what Zhou Anze said.

That day, Jiang Liu saw a bunch of wild garlic sprouts in a field by the roadside.

This kind of wild garlic sprouts is most fragrant when used to stir-fry meat. If the garlic below is used to soak in a sour jar, it will be very delicious when eaten with rice.

Jiang Xi also found it strange. Her appetite was quite good when she was at home, but after coming here, her appetite became worse and worse.

Obviously, tasting delicious food is the happiest thing.

Jiang Xiu squatted on the side of the road and reached out to pick garlic sprouts. When she had a poor appetite, she would try to get herself more appetizing food. She preferred food supplements to medicine.

Jiang Luo was squatting on the roadside pulling garlic sprouts happily when suddenly something fell on her.

Jiang Xing lowered his head and saw a lump of mud.

Her clothes were also stained with mud.

She raised her eyes and squinted at the three female educated youth not far away.

When Jiang Xi looked at him, he didn't look apologetic at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Ah, sorry, we didn't mean it. You shouldn't be angry, right?"

Jiang Xi glanced at the person walking behind them, put down the garlic sprouts in her hand, stood up and walked over.

When the other party saw Jiang Xi coming, his face changed, but when he thought that there were three of them and Jiang Xi was alone, he couldn't do anything to them, so he became brave and stood there waiting for Jiang Xi to come over.

Jiang Xing said calmly, "I'm not angry."

The tone was exceptionally generous, without any hint of anger at all.

Then she suddenly reached out and picked up the dung scoop, without saying anything, scooped up a spoonful of undigested food fibers, and splashed them on the three female educated youths.
