Chapter 35 The boss finally solved a love rival (1)
At the end of August, the Ruyi Village Committee held a voting election for workers, peasants and soldiers throughout the village.
The two selected people will have the opportunity to be admitted to university.
There are three production brigades in Ruyi Village, and each brigade nominated one person. As a result, Bai Dongsheng, Bai Aimin and Zhou Chunsheng were selected, and they are about to enter the final election of the village committee (the entire village).
Zhou Chunsheng was very eager to get this spot.
——Because he wants Bai Taotao to be his wife.
Zhou Chunsheng knew very well that Song Zhi, who lived in Taotao's house, was the first to see the moon because he was close to the water.
But he knew Bai Zhenggan's character too well - Bai Zhenggan loved Taotao more than he cherished his own life. The better Song Zhi's conditions were, the more worried Bai Zhenggan would be. After Taotao married Song Zhi, she was treated coldly by Song Zhi's family because her family was not strong enough.
Fortunately, Taotao is only seventeen years old this year.
Zhou Chunsheng felt that he still had a good chance - if he could get a place in college and go to college for two years, Taotao would be 19 years old, just the right age to get married, and he could just ask Bai Zhenggan to marry Taotao.
On this point, Zhou Chunsheng believed that he had a far greater advantage than Song Zhi:
First, judging from the fact that Song Zhi could speak three foreign languages, he would definitely not stay in Ruyi Village forever. But Chunsheng is a local, and after he marries Taotao, he will always stay under Bai Zhenggan's nose, so Bai Zhenggan can continue to take care of Taotao.
Second, Chunsheng was also a child that Bai Zhenggan watched grow up. Although Bai Zhenggan was also worried that he was the son of a landlord, Bai Zhenggan had helped him secretly for such a long time... If Bai Zhenggan hated his character, would he do this?
To sum up, Zhou Chunsheng is determined to get the admission quota.
But his competitiveness is far inferior to Bai Dongsheng and Bai Aimin.
The final voting has begun.
——Dongsheng is 26 years old this year and has been the production team leader for several years. Earlier this year, he was nominated as a candidate for the production team leader. He went to high school in the county town. He was reasonable and knew right from wrong. He was strong, honest, reliable, hardworking and brave. He had handled many family disputes for the villagers. There are more than 400 adults in the village, and Dongsheng received 350 votes!
——Bai Aimin is eighteen years old this year, he is Dongsheng’s cousin. He is still very young, and although he only has an elementary school education, he is hardworking and down-to-earth. Ai Min's reputation in the village is far inferior to that of his cousin Dongsheng. The only thing he can say is that he bravely stood up and exposed the human trafficking of Huang Er from the neighboring village without fear of retaliation.
Of course, Bai Aimin also knew very well that the reason why he was able to get more than 30 votes was entirely because the villagers disliked the third candidate, Zhou Chunsheng.
In fact, Zhou Chunsheng’s conditions are not bad either.
He is 22 years old this year. He dropped out of junior high school because of family changes and returned home to farm. Up to now, he has been the leader of the production team for two years. He is known for his quick wit. Every time there is a dispute between Ruyi Village and other villages, the village chief and the party secretary will ask him to handle it, and he completes the task perfectly every time. But he was physically weak, and he couldn't do ten work points a day like Dongsheng, and then go home to move and carry things...
His biggest constraint is the stigma that can never be erased from him - he is the son of a landlord.
Final voting is closed.
Several cadres of the village committee have already counted the votes and are about to announce the list. Zhou Chunsheng knows that he is still about seven or eight votes behind Bai Aimin!
He had some idea and decided to speak up to stop it. He had anticipated such a situation and had carefully prepared a speech to canvass votes for himself.
unexpectedly--
"Please wait a moment!" someone shouted.
Zhou Chunsheng looked at Jiang Hongzhi in the team of educated youth in surprise.
Jiang Hongzhi stepped out of the team and said loudly: "Village head, secretary, fellow villagers, I have something to say!"
Everyone was stunned.
Jiang Hongzhi, "Fellow villagers, I have been working in Ruyi Village for three years! I believe that you have noticed my performance in the past three years, right?"
As he spoke, he began to call the roll.
"Aunt Fourteen, two years ago you went up the mountain and fell into a deep pit. You were trapped for a day and a night. Finally, I passed by there and heard your cry for help. I wanted to pull you out, but you had no strength. I jumped into the deep pit and let you step on me to help you out. You should still remember, right?"
"Uncle Eight, in the past few years, I have been writing letters for your son who is in the army. When he sent you letters, I read them to you word for word..."
"Brother Dongsheng, when Bai Zhenzhu came to our house to cause trouble, Hongdou was in trouble. I was called over at that time. It was me who taught them how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and only then did Hongdou breathe again..."
"Fourth uncle, seventh grandmother, over the past few years, every Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Double Ninth Festival, Spring Festival... I have brought comrades from the Youth League Station to visit the orphanage to comfort the elderly and clean up. I believe you remember it..."
The people he named all nodded in agreement with what he said.
Jiang Hongzhi then said, "I have been in Ruyi Village for a few years, and I have already regarded this place as my own home... Now the village has this opportunity to be recommended to the Workers and Peasants University, don't I... have the opportunity to participate in the election?"
The villagers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Song Zhi sat aside with his arms folded, staring at Zhou Chunsheng.
He couldn't help but pay attention to this... the imaginary rival who was always trying to steal his girl away.
Song Zhi knew exactly what Zhou Chunsheng was thinking right now!
——Zhou Chunsheng just wants to compete for the admission quota, study in college for two years and then come back to propose to Taotao!
Pooh! Dream on!
Until here we see Jiang Hongzhi come out to take charge? An idea suddenly came to Song Zhi's mind.
How about giving Zhou Chunsheng a helping hand? Let him stay away so that he won't always come to find Taotao, forcing him to pay attention to Zhou Chunsheng's whereabouts every day. As long as Zhou Chunsheng is not at work, he has to keep a close eye on Taotao... Otherwise, Zhou Chunsheng will definitely find ways to get close to Taotao!
As for when Zhou Chunsheng will come back...
What if Song Zhi can’t marry Taotao within two years? It would be better to just kidnap him!
Thinking of this, Song Zhi waved to Xiao Hongdou.
Hongdou lost some of her previous memories, but other than that, her other injuries have slowly recovered and are not serious. The little girl was very smart and quickly ran towards him, "Uncle?"
Song Zhi smiled and whispered a few words to the little girl.
The little girl understood and went to find Zhou Chunsheng.
Song Zhi left the village committee and went to the flat land behind the Youth League Station.
After a while, Zhou Chunsheng also came and asked Song Zhi, "Are you looking for me?"
Song Zhi, "You also want a recommendation?"
Zhou Chunsheng's face flushed, "I can't even think about it?" His thoughts were exposed, and he became angry and embarrassed.
Song Zhi smiled slightly, "Of course! But, isn't this a Cheng Yaojin who shows up unexpectedly!" This place was not far from the village committee square, and both of them could clearly hear Jiang Hongzhi using an impassioned tone, hoping to convince the village committee to allow him to run for election.
Zhou Chunsheng said nothing.
Song Zhi, "I know, you must have prepared a live speech, right?"
Zhou Chunsheng was a little surprised, "How did you know?"
Song Zhi found it a little funny, "How can you canvass for votes if you don't give a speech?"
Zhou Chunsheng: …
Song Zhi, "But I'm curious about what you would say."
Zhou Chunsheng didn't want to pay attention to him at first.
But on second thought, normally no one was willing to discuss these things with him, and he didn't know whether the content of the speech he prepared was appropriate. Besides, Song Zhi came from Kyoto after all. He has a lot of experience. Talking to him...maybe it will be helpful.
Zhou Chunsheng said hesitantly: "I, I just want to play the sympathy card, I want everyone to stop nagging me that I am the 'landlord's bastard'..."
"fool!"
Song Zhi cursed, "You're really bringing up something that's not relevant to the topic!"
Zhou Chunsheng was stunned. "Ah?"
Song Zhi, "Play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, understand?"
Zhou Chunsheng still didn't understand, "Jiang Hongzhi is better at speaking than me..."
Song Zhi, "Just like you are always proud in front of me that you are a native of Ruyi Village, this is your greatest advantage!"
A blush suddenly appeared on Zhou Chunsheng's handsome face!
——Did he really behave so obviously in front of Song Zhi?
Song Zhi continued, "So you should work hard on this point! No matter how good Jiang Hongzhi is at talking, he got this quota for the purpose of using it as a springboard. He will leave Ruyi Village in the future! Don't you think the villagers don't understand?"
"You are different. You are a local. After you have learned enough, you will come back to continue serving your fellow villagers! As long as you can explain this point clearly, who do you think the villagers will choose?" Song Zhi asked.
Zhou Chunsheng opened his mouth wide, "But, but they always think I'm the bastard of a landlord..."
Song Zhi, "That's why you need to learn and be reformed more than Jiang Hongzhi!"
Zhou Chunsheng: That makes a lot of sense! ! !
Song Zhi taught him again, "In fact, the people in your village don't hate you, they just hate your grandparents... People are all made of flesh and blood. It's not that people didn't see the efforts you made in the past, but because there are still the elderly people of your ancestors who are still alive, there are some historical reasons that caused harm that they can't forget... Don't fight for these votes anymore, you won't get them anyway."
"Did you see how Jiang Hongzhi canvassed for votes? He only canvassed for those people...who he had done favors for before. So, don't mention anything about the landlord's brat or anything like that! Forget all the prepared words and just improvise! The key point is...to highlight your attachment to the village. You went out to get an education so that you can come back to better serve everyone! This is the only reason you can suppress Jiang Hongzhi."
As he spoke, Song Zhi listened attentively to Jiang Hongzhi's speech coming from the village committee square, and said to Zhou Chunsheng:
"Listen, every word Jiang Hongzhi said is reminding the villagers how much he has contributed to the village... He is using his power to demand a favor! So you must do the opposite. When you go up to speak later, every word you say must make it clear to the villagers that you are grateful to them. Even if someone treats you badly, it is a spur to you. You want to learn more knowledge to repay the village that raised you three siblings!"
Zhou Chunsheng was shocked.
——Song Zhi was not at all like he usually appeared, indifferent to everything. It should be said that there is nothing he can't do, except things he doesn't want to get involved in, right?
Zhou Chunsheng suddenly felt that facing such a powerful rival in love, he seemed... totally unable to resist?
Song Zhi finished speaking and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Chunsheng summoned up the courage to stop him, "Are you helping me just to... get me out of the way so you can have Taotao all to yourself?"
Song Zhi, "Yes!"
Zhou Chunsheng was shocked and angry, "...you!"
Song Zhi, "Then are you still trying to get a place in the recommended admission?"
Zhou Chunsheng: …
——How could he not fight for it? If he can't change his current situation, he will be a landlord's brat all his life! He has no right to marry Taotao. Therefore, his only way out is to strive for a place in the university… When he returns from his studies, he will not only be qualified to marry Taotao, but will also become a cadre and achieve class advancement.
"We must fight for it!" Zhou Chunsheng said firmly.
Song Zhi smiled and left.
Zhou Chunsheng is known for his quick wit.
After getting some advice from Song Zhi, he found a new direction, quickly prepared a draft in his mind, and then hurried back to the village committee square.
At this time, Jiang Hongzhi had just finished his speech, his face was youthful and full of confidence.
However, everyone at the scene, from the village chief and Bai Zhenggan sitting on the podium to the villagers, women and children sitting in the audience, were all silent.
Zhou Chunsheng said loudly: "Village head, secretary, fellow villagers, I also want to say a few words..."
He and Bai Zhenggan made eye contact.
Zhou Chunsheng clearly saw the look of approval in Bai Zhenggan's eyes.
His confidence suddenly increased!
Zhou Chunsheng first bowed in the direction of the rostrum and said, "Thank you village cadres for giving me the opportunity to speak!"
Then he turned around and bowed to the villagers who were sitting on the ground below holding various small stools, "Thank you, fellow villagers, for listening to my nonsense!"
The scene remained silent.
Jiang Hongzhi: I was so excited just now that I forgot to bow when I went on stage! Fall
Zhou Chunsheng looked around at his fellow villagers and said, "As the old saying goes, 'Children without mothers are like weeds.' Think about it, I am only 22 years old this year, but my parents have passed away... almost 10 years ago. There are three siblings in my family. When my parents passed away, I was 12, about the same age as Gou Wa. The youngest sister, Xiao Ni, had just learned to walk, and Chun Ni was only 7 years old... How to raise my sisters has always been the biggest problem that bothers me until today."
"Thanks to the help of our fellow villagers, my sisters and I survived!"
"Eleventh Grandma, you always scold me and make me cry, but when my Chunni was sick with a fever, you sent two eggs and left them at my door, right?"
"I admit that I am not as good as many young people in the village. I am physically weak and work very hard, but sometimes I can't even get the work points that the women get... Uncle Xiao, every time I finish harvesting, I am so tired that I can't even carry the hoe. You have been carrying the hoe for me for the past one or two years. And Uncle Ba, I have seen you doing farm work for me silently many times... I want to thank you, but you won't let me..."
"It goes without saying that the grandmothers, aunts, and sisters-in-law in the village have taken such good care of my three siblings... If I were to talk about it, I might not be able to finish for days and nights. I... bow to everyone again!"
As he spoke, Zhou Chunsheng wiped away his tears and bowed to the rostrum and the audience stand respectively.
——In fact, what he said was very skillful.
Grandma Eleven is old. Her husband died at the hands of Chunsheng’s grandfather. She never remarried and is now a lonely old lady in the village. Normally she would curse Chunsheng and his sister whenever she saw them, but one time Chunni fell ill and did not go out for several days, and someone happened to give two eggs to Grandma Eleven... Grandma Ten was kind-hearted after all, and she secretly delivered the two eggs to Chunsheng's door, but they were seen by Xiaoni who was watching over the house.
Now, the villagers heard that even the Eleventh Lady, who hated Chunsheng's family the most, had shown kindness to these three orphans?
Many women in the audience also began to wipe away their tears.
Jiang Hongzhi thought to himself that something was wrong.
Zhou Chunsheng continued, "I won't waste my words. I have said so much today for only one purpose - I want to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers Student Program, and then study hard and accept ideological transformation! If I am lucky enough to get this place, I may have to trouble the villagers to look after Chunni and Xiaoni for a while... When I have learned the knowledge well, I will definitely come back to the village and serve everyone well!"
The villagers chattered about it.
"I think Chunsheng is much more reliable than Jiang Hongzhi!"
"That's right, Chunsheng is from our village, he knows everything about us!"
"Jiang Hongzhi wants to go back to the city, right?"
"Ask the secretary if I can change my vote. I'm voting for Chunsheng!"
"Chunsheng has suffered a lot, but he is still grateful. I vote for him too!"
Jiang Hongzhi's face turned blue and red.
——He was an outsider and could only use the method of blackmail to tell these villagers what he had done for them. Zhou Chunsheng, however, is a local. Even when he is bullied, he still puts on an attitude of "repaying gratitude"... It is obvious which side of his ideological realm is higher!
It seems that he has no chance this time!
On the rostrum, Bai Zhenggan discussed with the village cadres and finally decided -
Why not just let Bai Dongsheng and Bai Aimin give a speech each, and then the whole village will vote to decide.
The villagers agreed with this.
Bai Dongsheng was used to the scenes and was not afraid of giving speeches on the spot. In addition, he had a calm personality. Although he was young, he already had his own plans for the future development of the village, so he gave a calm speech on the spot.
Bai Aimin was still too young and a little stage-frightened, so he spoke haltingly, but he did receive a lot of good-natured laughter from the villagers.
Finally, everyone voted again -
Bai Dongsheng's number of votes did not change, and he even gained more than a dozen votes, from 350 to 363.
Bai Aimin received 8 votes.
Zhou Chunsheng received 51 votes.
Jiang Hongzhi received 18 votes - only the educated youth from the village and a few girls in the village who admired him voted for him.
So Bai Zhenggan announced that the two places for admission to the Workers and Peasants University in this session fell to Bai Dongsheng and Zhou Chunsheng!
Next, it’s time to fill in your major choices.
With his father helping him steer the course, and since Bai Dongsheng himself also had the idea of going into politics, he directly applied for the ideological and political major at the Party School.
Zhou Chunsheng hesitated.
——He originally just wanted to give it a try to see if he could be selected, so he had no idea about the major or the school.
There was really no other way, so he quickly went to ask Song Zhi for help.
Song Zhi stared at Zhou Chunsheng, pondered for three seconds, and then gave a straightforward answer: "Study medicine!"
——Want to come back and marry Taotao in two years? Then you should study medicine! The minimum is five years!
"Study medicine?" Zhou Chunsheng hesitated. "But I don't know anything at all!"
"If you already know it, then what's the point of learning it?" Song Zhi said coldly.
Zhou Chunsheng: That makes a lot of sense!
He recalled that the staff members of the team that came to the village for scientific research some time ago were all very polite and respectful to Song Zhi, so he shamelessly asked, "Studying medicine, or those mechanical repairs you know...which one is more difficult?"
Song Zhi, "You are not good at math, so you can't study engineering, let alone science."
After a pause, Song Zhi explained, "I went to college at the age of seventeen, majoring in engines. I have been studying for seven years now, but I dare not say that I have mastered it..."
Zhou Chunsheng immediately gave up.
After thinking for a while, he asked again, "Then tell me, can I choose the Party School like Brother Dongsheng?"
Song Zhi: That’s certainly not good! What if you and Dongsheng are studying party building in the same school, and you have fallen in love after two years of dating, and Dongsheng is willing to let Taotao marry you, what should I do?
"Don't you have a brain?" Song Zhi asked back, "If half of your ultimate goal in getting the admission quota is for Taotao... do you think your future actions can surpass Brother Taotao?"
Zhou Chunsheng shook his head.
——From today's election results, it can be seen that Brother Dongsheng is only 26 years old, but he can already make the whole village, young and old, submit to him. Zhou Chunsheng asked himself, he can't do this no matter what!
Song Zhi, "So even if you choose the same path as Dongsheng, he will be the only one to take care of you in the future, and you will never be able to stand on your own! Are you willing to be inferior to others for the rest of your life?"
Zhou Chunsheng: …
"Are there any other subjects to choose from?" Zhou Chunsheng asked unwillingly.
——Does studying medicine require using a scalpel? He was a little scared.
Song Zhi, "Go ask the secretary!"
Zhou Chunsheng ran to ask Bai Zhenggan again.
Bai Zhenggan kindly took out the "Notice on the names of two additional students from Ruyi Village recommended for admission to the Workers and Peasants University" and handed it to Zhou Chunsheng to read.
The notice lists several majors that are currently in short supply in the country and society, and students are advised to apply for them. There are recommendations for general practitioners, vets, posts and telecommunications, forestry, road maintenance and the like.
Zhou Chunsheng's eyes scanned back and forth over those simple blocks of characters...
He didn’t know if Song Zhi’s words had already taken root in his mind, but after looking around, he finally decided that studying medicine would be best.
In the end, Zhou Chunsheng tremblingly filled in the word "medical science" on the recommendation form for admission.
After Bai Dongsheng and Zhou Chunsheng filled out the admission quota form, the village chief immediately rode his bicycle to the township and personally handed over the admission list for the two.
After the approval from the superiors, Bai Dongsheng and Zhou Chunsheng’s letters of introduction will come down, and then the two of them will have to rush to the assigned schools as soon as possible to register for study.
Naturally, some are happy and some are sad.
Of course, Taotao's family was filled with laughter.
Bai Dongsheng himself was very worried - his second brother was not there, his father's old injury had not healed, and he was the only male in the family. If he went out at this critical moment, what if someone came to bully his family?
Bai Zhenggan comforted his son, "I am a secretary after all, and my seniority in this village is not low. Your second uncle lives at the foot of the mountain. If there is anything, he will hear you if you shout at the door... But this is a rare opportunity in your life! Don't waste it!"
Tang Liren, "What are you afraid of? I'm not old yet. I earned eight work points yesterday!"
Tan Fenghui also said softly: "Yes, I'm still at home, don't worry! It's just, it's just..." She just said a few words, but didn't finish the rest of the sentence.
Tao Tao helped her sister-in-law to speak up, "Just don't mess with those little goblins in the city! Come back as soon as you finish your studies, your wife and children are waiting for you at home!"
Tan Fenghui was both embarrassed and annoyed. She reached out her hand and wanted to pinch her aunt's face, but when she touched it... it was smooth and tender? She couldn't bear to do it anymore, so she grabbed Taotao's braids and used the ends of her hair to tease her face!
Taotao was so itchy that she shook her head desperately, but couldn't get it off, so she had to cover her face with her hands and said in a muffled voice: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was wrong... Please be magnanimous and let me go..."
Xingxing protected the fourth sister the most. She helped to snatch the fourth sister's braid from her sister-in-law's hand, and shouted, "Sister-in-law, we are helping you, why are you still bullying us!" She also reached out to scratch the itchy spot on Tan Fenghui's waist.
Tan Fenghui was tickled so much that she kept laughing. Lili stepped forward to stop the fight and pinched Xingxing's waist, "Stop it!"
Xing Xing was forced to let go, and ended up being attacked from both sides by Tan Fenghui and Lili!
For a moment, the aunts and sisters-in-law were laughing and shouting, making a mess.
Taotao regained her freedom and quickly climbed onto the kang bed, hid behind her mother, and took two pieces of sweet dried sweet potatoes to eat.
Tang Liren discussed with Bai Zhenggan what luggage to buy for Dongsheng...
Bai Dongsheng smiled when he saw the interaction between his wife and sisters.
The aunts and sisters-in-law quarreled for a while before gradually calming down.
Tan Fenghui winked at Dongsheng, and the young couple went back to the house.
Xingxing came over with a wronged look on her face, "Fourth sister, you are so heartless..." Before she could finish her sentence, Taotao stuffed her mouth with dried sweet potatoes.
"Is it sweet?" Taotao asked her.
Xing Xing nodded quickly, "...sweet!"
Lili asked, hands on her hips, "What about mine?"
Taotao quickly pulled out the half piece of dried sweet potato in her mouth and handed it to Lili, "Third sister, here!"
Lili looked disgusted and turned away.
The whole family looked at Taotao and laughed.
Taotao suddenly remembered something, "Dad, Mom, why is our eldest brother called Dongsheng, and our second brother is called Nansheng instead of Chunsheng? Is it because the name Chunsheng was taken by Xiaoni's brother?"
Everyone in the family laughed.
Xing Xing whispered, "Don't ask me that in front of my elder brother...My elder brother is called Dongsheng because his childhood nickname was Donggua!"
Tao Tao suddenly realized, "So my second brother is a pumpkin!"
So the brothers are melons, the sisters are fruits, and the nephews and nieces are beans...
Tao Tao thought about it again, "My third sister is a pear, I am a peach, and my silly sister is an apricot, so are the three of us also ranked according to the size of the fruit?"
It’s so casual for parents to name someone! Fortunately, it sounds pretty good...
Xing Xing looked unhappy, "Why do you always say I'm stupid, Fourth Sister?"
Lili asked Taotao, "Guess what the name of our youngest cat is?"
According to the custom of Ruyi Village, a newborn baby can only be named after a hundred days, so everyone still calls him Maomao.
Tao Tao thought, what's there to guess? We already have red beans and yellow beans at home, "...green beans?"
The family burst into laughter again.
At Zhou Chunsheng's home, the three brothers and sisters were also murmuring.
Zhou Xiaoni said, "Brother, am I dreaming? Can you really go out to school?"
Zhou Chunsheng nodded and patted his little sister's head. "When your brother is not at home, you and your second sister should stick together. Usually... spend more time with Taotao and her sister."
Zhou Xiaoni tilted her head and looked at her brother, "Brother, do you... like Sister Taotao?"
Zhou Chunsheng's face flushed instantly, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"But I saw that Sister Taotao and Brother Songzhi are very good friends?" Xiao Ni said.
Zhou Chunsheng: …
Zhou Chunni asked, "Brother, when is the next election for workers, peasants and soldiers?"
Zhou Chunsheng, “Once every two years.”
"Can I join?" Zhou Chunni asked hopefully.
Zhou Chunsheng, "Then try your best to move in this direction!"
Zhou Chunni, "Brother, you studied medicine, right? You want to be a doctor in the future... I, I also want to be a doctor. I wear a white coat and people call me Doctor Zhou... Wow, just thinking about it makes me feel so great!"
Zhou Xiaoni teased her, "You can't even recognize the words!"
Zhou Chunni was unhappy. "There are so many people in the village who can't read! Get the quota first! Besides, if you go out, you will have the opportunity to receive education!"
Zhou Chunsheng frowned, "Chun Ni, it's good to have a wish. But you have to judge the situation..."
"Wait! What do you mean by interrogation? What does it mean?" Zhou Chunni asked.
Chunsheng sighed, "Think about it, if there is only one spot in our village this time, who can go?"
"Brother Dongsheng!" Zhou Chunni said.
Chunsheng, "How does Brother Dongsheng usually behave in the village?"
Zhou Chunni was stunned.
——Bai Dongsheng usually keeps a low profile in the village and doesn’t like to talk much. However, no matter what happened in the village, he was always the first to show up. He does all the dirty and tiring work, and he is the first person that comes to mind when there are disputes in other people's families...
Zhou Chunni understood and looked embarrassed, "I can't do it like him!" Then she changed her mind and smiled again, "There are many people in our village, so it's normal to have two places! Brother, you got selected!"
Zhou Chunsheng, "Can you do it to my level?"
Zhou Chunni, "Why not? If you can't work, then neither can I! You are smart, and I am not stupid!"
Zhou Chunsheng, "What if after Dongsheng and I left, two young men like Dongsheng appeared in the village? They both wanted to participate in the election for the next batch of workers, peasants and soldiers?"
Zhou Chunni: …
She cursed a few words, stormed out, and slammed the door.
Zhou Xiaoni came close to her brother and whispered, "Brother, if you leave... I, I'm a little scared of her. She hits people so hard..."
Zhou Chunsheng rubbed his sister's head. "You should finish your work and study hard. When you have nothing to do, go to Taotao. I saw the textbooks she copied at her house that day... I think she is also studying. You should follow her and learn more. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can also strive for a place in the worker-peasant-soldier student class, okay?"
Zhou Xiaoni nodded.
A few days later, the superiors approved the decision - Bai Dongsheng was assigned to the Provincial Party School to study ideological and political education; Zhou Chunsheng was assigned to study at XX Medical University in Kyoto.
There was an uproar in the village!
Dongsheng is fine, but how could Zhou Chunsheng, a kid from a landlord's family, go to a medical university in Kyoto? ? ?
This is a blessing earned over several lifetimes!
That night, all the villagers closed their doors and taught the child a lesson: Look, the landlord’s kid can go to Kyoto to study in university, why are you so useless? ? ? Then, the sound of parents spanking their children and the howling of their cubs could be heard in every household.
A few days later, Bai Dongsheng and Zhou Chunsheng left the village with their luggage, amid the envious gazes of the whole village.
Ruyi Village gradually returned to its former tranquility.
Of course, many people tried their best to learn from Zhou Chunsheng, so in the following period of time, the atmosphere in Ruyi Village was particularly good.
Bai Taotao also wants to become a worker-peasant-soldier student and go to university like her brother Dongsheng!
So Song Zhi found a way to help her set goals.
He managed to get a hundred old books on agriculture, such as "Chicken Farming and Plague Prevention", "Plant Grafting Tips", "One Hundred Methods for Rice Disease Prevention", "Correct Methods for Planting Mulberry and Raising Silkworms", "Raising a 300-pound Fat Pig in 300 Days", etc.
Then he said that Ming Zhenggan, the village head, and other production team leaders and group leaders had established a library in the village committee and donated the more than 100 old books to the village library.
The library is really simple.
——In fact, the village committee allocated a vacant office of about ten square meters. Song Zhi cut some bamboos and, under the guidance of Bai Zhenggan, made two "bookshelves" with them. He also contacted the production team, moved an old wooden box from the warehouse, modified it into a table, and took some time to make a few small stools, and the library was opened.
Song Zhi also persuaded the production team to let Taotao serve as the library manager, opening the library for three hours every day at noon, and earning two work points a day.
This really took a lot of effort on his part.
After all, adding a new type of job, and a fixed position at that, means... there is one more person to share the rations.
Even Bai Zhenggan disagreed with Song Zhi's opinion. He felt that guarding the library was a waste of effort and he was embarrassed to even claim work points!
Song Zhi was extremely persistent and promised that he could open a literacy class in the village to teach everyone to read. Once Taotao's new job gets on track, she can be asked to teach everyone how to read.
After several days of negotiation, the village committee and the production team finally agreed to Song Zhi's request.
In this way, Taotao also got a formal job.
Taotao had a goal. She would get up early every morning, get herself ready, and go up the mountain with her sisters to cut grass for pigs and sheep. They would then carry the grass back to the production team to be weighed and report back. Then the sisters would wash clothes and cook, while Taotao would clean the yard and the house. After lunch, she would pull Song Zhi to the library to watch over it.
Recently, everyone in the village has been inspired by Zhou Chunsheng, and they all want to learn culture and knowledge. It was a small library, but there were hundreds of people crowded at the door, including men, women, young and old.
Song Zhi first spent some time assessing everyone's cultural foundation. Then the group was divided into two halves. One half had no basic knowledge, and Tao Tao taught them how to recognize pinyin and characters and write their own names. The other half had some basic knowledge, so Song Zhi directly took out a book called "Forty Common Pests and Diseases in Rice Planting" and started explaining it to everyone...
For a time, Taotao and Song Zhi became people that the villagers often talked about.
"Taotao is really not stupid anymore, she is quite smart! She can recognize a lot of words!"
"She is pretty, literate, and very patient in teaching us!"
"This girl is good!"
"Song Zhiqing is a good person, he is ten thousand times better than those in the Zhiqing Station!"
"Shh, this is the Youth League Station, please keep your voice down..."

——The plot of the original book is: Song Zhi will marry the original body three months after arriving in Ruyi Village. But now it has been more than three months, and Song Zhi is not willing to even take a look at either the original body or the book-crossing person Yan Naxian herself! Then how did the original body marry Song Zhi?
——The first chapter of the original book describes that three years later, the original body was tortured to death by his brother and sister-in-law in Nandu... In fact, the original body was already dead, and the heroine came through the book. Then she dealt with the evil brother and sister-in-law, and immediately rushed to Ruyi Village to divorce Song Zhi.
So, she came three years too early?
Yan Naxian sighed.
Why come three years in advance? I still have to find a way back to the city...
But now it seems that there are only two ways to leave this village: one is to marry Song Zhi, and the other is to get a quota for workers, peasants and soldiers, go to school first, and then find a way to get a job when it is assigned.
