"My name is Sheng Yanchuan, you guys go ahead, I'll look after the luggage here." Sheng Yanchuan explained quietly while no one was paying attention.
"Ah, okay, Comrade Sheng, thank you for your hard work. Let's go and come back quickly." After saying that, he pulled Shen Nian and walked in the direction pointed by Sheng Yanchuan.
The post office is not big, and there are not many people who make phone calls. Phone calls are not cheap these days, and even when the call is not connected, you will be charged. So generally, those who can write letters will write them.
Nanqiao called both mom's and dad's offices, but they were probably busy and neither answered. So he called his brother again.
The call was connected instantly
"Hello, is this Qiao Qiao?"
"Brother, it's me. I'm here. The weather here is a bit dry, but it's not bad."
"Okay, that's good. If you have anything, call me anytime."
"Okay, I didn't get through to Mom and Dad, so remember to tell them. Also, someone is waiting for me here. I won't talk to you any more. Goodbye, brother."
Nanqiao hung up the phone, paid the money, and stood aside waiting for Shen Nian to call.
After the call, the two did not stay for long and went back to the tractor. There was only one tractor parked where there were two tractors.
Nanqiao asked doubtfully, "Have they left?"
"Well, it's just enough for one car, so we'll go back first," Sheng Yanchuan said.
"Should we wait for someone then?"
"Well, we have to wait. Two of your male educated youth have gone to mail the letters, so it might be a little slower."
Nanqiao nodded, and he and Shen Nian supported each other on the tractor, and sat down in front of their luggage.
Nanqiao had just sat down when two small red fruits were handed to him.
"For you, these are small wild fruits from the mountains, sour and sweet."
Nanqiao looked up at the man, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a bit of a ruffian look, which did not quite fit the aesthetic of this era of thick eyebrows, big eyes, square faces and decent appearance, but it fits the aesthetic of Nanqiao in the 21st century.
Perhaps due to years of hard work, the skin exposed outside the short-sleeved shirt is bronze, and the muscle lines are very beautiful but not exaggerated.
Nanqiao is 1.7 meters tall, which is very tall for a girl, and a man's height is at least 188 cm. Nanqiao has to look up to see him.
His eyes moved from Sheng Yanchuan's face to the small fruit in his hand, he took it and gave one to Shen Nian.
I thanked him with a smile, but didn't communicate with him much. In this era, men and women still need to pay attention to the separation.
"Ah!" Nanqiao suddenly exclaimed
"Qiaoqiao, what happened? Did you leave something in the car?" Chen Nian didn't know what happened to Nanqiao, and thought she forgot to take something.
"No, no," Nanqiao said to Chen Nian, then turned around and said to Sheng Yanchuan who had been looking at her, "Comrade Sheng, my parents sent my bedding just when we set out. Maybe it won't arrive now?"
Si Nanqiao didn't want to mention this, but her bag was so small, and it didn't look like she had any bedding. Rather than let others wonder how she rested at night, she might as well make this matter known.
"It won't arrive if it's mailed. If it's shipped by train, it should arrive tomorrow." Sheng Yanchuan heard that Nanqiao's bedding hadn't arrived yet, and he was a little worried about her. Although it was summer, the nights in Qing City were still a little chilly.
What's more, the educated youth camps all have earthen beds, so we can't just live like that for a few days.
"How about this, after you arrive at the youth education center, go to the village and ask Aunt Xiumei, who is the women's director of the village commune, to lend you a set for two days," Sheng Yanchuan suggested, but the gleam in his eyes seemed to hint at something.
"Isn't this too bad? I'd better buy a set." After all, cotton fabrics are scarce in this era.
"No need to buy it. I thought you lost something. Don't worry about the bedding. You can sleep in the same bed with me."
Nanqiao looked at Shen Nian gratefully as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Ah! That's great, Nian Nian won't dislike me, right?" Nanqiao said in a coquettish tone.
"How could it be, I have such a beautiful woman sleeping with me, I can't wait to be happy." Shen Nian couldn't think of the words that came out.
Nanqiao blushed when she heard this, and quickly covered Shen Nian's mouth, subconsciously looking at Sheng Yanchuan on the side.
Although the other party turned his body to the side, his red ears betrayed him.
South Bridge is even more embarrassing...
With her mouth covered, Shen Nian seemed to realize that what she said was not appropriate. She shrank her neck and looked at Nanqiao apologetically.
Nanqiao then let her go, gently tickled Shen Nian's itchy flesh, and signaled her with his eyes not to talk nonsense.
Sheng Yanchuan listened to the two girls' laughter and playfulness behind him, and seemed to be infected by them, and was in a particularly good mood.
While the two were playing, the other two male educated youths came back.
While climbing onto the car, he apologized, "I'm sorry, comrades, you've been waiting for so long. It's been a delay."
"Comrade Sheng, we can set off now."
Sheng Yanchuan glanced back and saw that everyone was seated firmly. He started the tractor without saying a word.
"Hello, comrades. My name is Li Zhuoran and I am from Beijing."
"My name is Jiang Haihe, and I come from a small county in Northwest China"
The two male educated youth introduced themselves to each other in a familiar manner.
They had never thought that sending a letter would make two of the most attractive educated youth who went to the Red Flag Commune to stay and wait for them.
For the sake of their future revolutionary friendship, the two men racked their brains to strike up a conversation.
"Hello, my name is Nanqiao, and I'm from Shanghai"
"My name is Chen Nian, and I'm also from Shanghai"
"They are all big cities. Are they developing well now? I heard that there are many foreign businessmen in Shanghai."
