Chapter 16: Boxed lunches sold on trains (1 / 2)



After a while, three girls came and saw that there were empty seats on Xu Zhixin, Lu Lujie's chair, and Zhu Yong's chair, so they sat down. Judging from their appearance, it was obvious that they were together.

After asking, worker Lu Pinjie found out that they were three cousins, all of whom were educated youth who went to the countryside. They happened to be working in the commune next to the one they were working in, and they were all going to Changling County, Dongtong City, Jiangxi Province.

Since they were heading to the same destination, they interacted with each other enthusiastically and soon became familiar with each other. Zhu Yong joked that there were more women than men here and that he was surrounded by a bunch of lesbians. He felt a little nervous, but also felt flattered, which made the girls laugh.

After a while, the entire carriage was full of people, all educated youth. After chatting for a while, I found out that all the educated youth in the carriage were going to Jiangxi Province.

"Jiang Province is a good place. It's a blessing for us to be able to go to Jiang Province. I heard that Jiang Province is a land of fish and rice, and crops can be harvested three times a year. It's amazing. When we go to Jiang Province, we don't have to worry about not having enough to eat." said an educated youth.

Everyone nodded. One female educated youth asked doubtfully, "Is it really that good? I have a relative from Jiang Province. She told me that some people in Jiang Province also suffer from hunger. I'm afraid it's not that good."

As soon as she said this, many people became worried. Xu Zhixin was fine, as she had so much food in her space that she would never starve.

"Coo...Coo..." The train started moving. Two girls started crying, missing home. They said they didn't know when they would be able to come back.

Everyone sighed and became sad. Indeed, after leaving, they didn't know when they would be able to come back, and it was possible that they would never come back.

Very few of the educated youth who went to the countryside could return to the city.

Seeing that not only the two girls were crying, several more people started crying, in fact there was also a man. Although Xu Zhixin could understand, she really couldn't stand so many people crying, making the atmosphere in the carriage gloomy and dejected.

"Don't cry anymore. Go to the production team and perform well. Try to build good relationships with the team leader and other team leaders. When you want to go home, ask for leave from the team leader and other team leaders. They will approve a few days of leave for you to go home and visit your relatives." Xu Zhixin said.

At this time, although the educated youth had to stay in the countryside for a long time and could not return to the city, they could establish good relationships with the team leaders of the production team and discuss asking for a few days off to go home and see their families, which would be approved.

As soon as Xu Zhixin said this, the educated youth who were crying sadly felt much better and wiped their tears and stopped crying.

"Don't forget what the great man said. The countryside is a vast world. We will definitely achieve great things there! We have no division of labor in the city and nothing to do. Why not go to the countryside to help the farmers and fellow villagers build the countryside and do something?"

A male educated youth spoke loudly and enthusiastically. Everyone knew that he wanted to encourage everyone and bring them out of their depressed and fearful mood, so they nodded in support.

"Come, let's recite the great man's quotations together, learn his spirit, and review his instructions." A female educated youth stood up and said.

She wanted to give everyone a boost and give them chicken soup, and what the educated youth needed most now was a boost and a soup, otherwise it would be difficult for them to admit it in the future.
