The Red Star Brigade is larger than the Qingshan Brigade and has a larger population. There are more than 20 educated youths in the educated youth center of this brigade.
They first visited the educated youth site, the architectural style of which was similar to that of the Qingshan Brigade, both of which were built in the same year.
Because there were many educated youth here, there were two or three people in one room.
At the educated youth site, everyone introduced themselves to each other first, and then the general manager of the educated youth site, Yu Wenye, introduced everyone to the daily life and study situation of their educated youth site.
Then, Ye Wenhong, the female supervisor who is specifically responsible for the night school class arrangements, introduced to them in detail the specific class time of the night school, the arrangement of the teachers, the difficulties they encountered, and how they solved them.
Everyone listened very carefully. Jiang Qingzhou and Hu Mingyue took detailed notes and planned to arrange the class according to the Red Star Brigade model.
At noon, we had lunch at the educated youth site. The Red Star Brigade invited two villagers who were good at cooking to cook, and the township gave us subsidies, so the meal was still very sumptuous.
Big steamed buns made of two kinds of flour, big pot of stewed dishes with quite a bit of meat in them, and unlimited rice, as much as you can eat.
There were not many village cadres coming to the educated youth site in the morning, but there were quite a few people coming for meals. In addition to the educated youth, all the village cadres, big and small, came to eat.
The secretary was afraid that there wouldn't be enough food, so he gave everyone a lecture and drove away those who wanted their children to join in the meal.
In the afternoon, the educated youth went to the village primary school to visit the school building. The village specially sent someone to explain to them how to arrange the educated youth who teach in the evening classes, and how they solve the problem of villagers not actively attending classes.
By the time the tour was over, it was around six in the afternoon.
Everyone returned to Qingshan Village and dinner was served at Yu Fugui's house. Yu Huanxiang and her daughter started busying themselves in the kitchen early in the afternoon.
Yu Fugui invited the educated youth to sit down in his living room. He first asked about today's visit and study, and then asked Jiang Qingzhou and Hu Mingyue to express their opinions and write a detailed class plan.
Chu Jingqiu was surprised that Gu Wanshan never showed up. Could she have been mistaken? Did Yu Fugui and his daughter not plan to take action tonight?
"It's time to eat, fellow educated youth. Go wash your hands, the meal will be served soon!" Yu Huanxiang greeted everyone with a smile and asked them to prepare to eat.
Today's dinner was really sumptuous, with braised old hen, braised fish, braised pork, a few vegetarian dishes, a few cans of yellow peaches, and luncheon meat.
Two tables were packed, one for the male educated youth and village cadres, and Yu Huanxiang sat at the table with the female educated youth.
Chu Jingqiu deliberately let Zhang Pingping sit between her and Shi Aihong, and did not let Yu Huanxiang sit next to her.
Yu Fugui also arranged some white wine. The female educated youth said they couldn't drink, so Yu Fugui didn't force them and asked Yu Huanxiang to pour some tea.
Yu Fugui first said a few polite opening remarks, and then asked everyone to start eating.
Zhang Pingping was having dinner at Yu Huanxiang's house and remained alert the entire time. Apart from eating the dishes, she did not drink any tea. Even when Yu Fugui came to toast her, she just pursed her lips and did not drink it.
Chu Jingqiu didn't drink the tea in her house either. When she was thirsty, she picked up her own kettle and took a few sips.
"Chu Zhiqing, is the tea in my house not tasty? Why don't you drink it?" Yu Huanxiang asked with a smile, but one could tell from her face that she was a little unhappy.
"Don't get me wrong, tea is very good. I usually drink boiled water at night instead of tea." Chu Jingqiu said calmly.
"Zhang Zhiqing, I haven't seen you drinking tea. Drink it quickly, it won't be good if it gets cold." She began to persuade Zhang Pingping again.
"Thank you. I don't sleep well and don't drink tea at night. You're welcome. I have boiled water here." Zhang Pingping said lightly.
Yu Huanxiang stopped trying to persuade them and was busy inviting a few female educated youth to dinner.
The meal was almost over but Gu Wanshan still didn't come over. Chu Jingqiu thought he must have been wrong, and Zhang Pingping also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Yu Gaixiang and Yu Jiuxiang started arguing outside for some unknown reason. Yu Huanxiang looked very anxious and hurried out to separate them. The others also followed them out to see what was going on.
It turned out that the two sisters had quarreled over a chicken leg. Yu Gaixiang said that she just went to the toilet, and Yu Jiuxiang ate her chicken leg. She was so angry that she cried loudly.
Yu Fugui started to scold them, but Yu Jiuxiang was not afraid at all. She even challenged him, saying, "I ate it. If you have the guts, wait until I poop before you eat it!"
Yu Gaixiang angrily picked up a basin of water from the ground and poured it over. She poured it in the direction of Chu Jingqiu. Although Chu Jingqiu dodged for a moment, it was still a basin of water after all, and a large area of her clothes was wet.
Shi Aihong was even wetter because Chu Jingqiu dodged, so most of the water splashed on her. The two of them looked at each other like drowned rats.
Wang Fengqin took off one of her shoes and chased after Yu Gaixiang to beat her. The others hurried to help pull her away. Yu Gaixiang pretended to take out a handkerchief to wipe the rubbish for both of them.
Their clothes were so wet that they decided to go back to the educated youth camp to change. Zhang Pingping wanted to go with them, but Hu Mingyue held her back and said, "We have a meeting soon. They'll be back soon."
Chu Jingqiu told Lin Zishan to stay with Zhang Pingping and never be separated, and then went back with Shi Aihong to change clothes.
Chu Jingqiu quickly changed her clothes and pulled Shi Aihong to run to Yu Fugui's house. When she arrived at Yu Fugui's house, she did not find Zhang Pingping.
She grabbed Lin Zishan's hand and asked anxiously, "Where's Zhang Pingping? Didn't they ask you to go with her?"
"I just went to the toilet with her, and then I helped Yu Huanxiang get some things. Yu Huanxiang said that Pingping went to the educated youth point to call you." Lin Zishan said.
Chu Jingqiu hurriedly checked every room in Yu Fugui's house, but did not find Zhang Pingping.
She told Jiang Qingzhou that she had caught a cold and had a stomachache, so she went back to the educated youth site to rest and asked Shi Aihong and Lin Zishan to go back early.
Then he ran to Yu Fugui's house, walked to a deserted place, and slipped into the space. Jiang Jiang was dozing off, "Qiuqiu, why did you get in?"
"Jiang Jiang, why aren't you watching the surveillance?"
"I just watched for a while and found that everyone had finished their meal. There was nothing else to do, so I took a break."
"Pingping is missing, hurry up and check the surveillance replay."
By watching the surveillance footage, it was discovered that in the bathroom of Yu Fugui's house, Yu Huanxiang covered Zhang Pingping's mouth with a handkerchief and then put Zhang Pingping into a sack.
An ugly man in his 40s put the sack on a wheelbarrow, pushed Zhang Pingping around a few corners, and entered a remote and dilapidated courtyard.
Chu Jingqiu left the space and ran to the dilapidated courtyard. The courtyard was made of adobe walls that were not even as tall as a person. Chu Jingqiu jumped in effortlessly.
An oil lamp was lit in the room to the east of the main house in the courtyard. The ugly man was eating in the room, and Zhang Pingping was not inside.
She quietly walked to the west room again and found Zhang Pingping lying on the kang in the west room. She opened the door and walked in. When she was about to move Zhang Pingping, she heard the door of the yard open and someone walked in.
She quickly slipped into the space and found Yu Huanxiang walking into the yard from outside, pushing open the door of the west room and walking in.
