At the end of the meeting, Propaganda Section Chief Wang Sanjiang and Women's Director Feng Sanju brought a bespectacled reporter to interview Hu Mingyue.
"Hello, Hu Zhiqing. I'm Li Jun, a reporter from the Northern Province Daily. Our newspaper is planning to report on your pioneering deeds in rural areas. I hope you can accept our interview."
Hu Mingyue smiled and shook hands with reporter Li. "Hello, Comrade Li, I'm very happy and happy to cooperate with your interview. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Li Jun first asked Hu Mingyue about some personal background and basic information, and then asked about some difficulties she encountered when she was sent to the countryside, how she overcame them, the honors she received, and her personal thoughts on taking root in the countryside.
Hu Mingyue answered all the questions one by one. In her description, she was proactive, helped the educated youth in need, popularized the principles of nature and science, as well as the country's people's livelihood policies to the villagers, and made outstanding contributions to the brigade's production increase.
After interviewing her about these basic situations, Li Jun asked her some personal questions.
"Hu Zhiqing, we just interviewed the leaders of your brigade, and they said that you regard your marriage to a farmer as a sign of your determination to "take root in the countryside and devote your life to revolution."
I heard that you have developed a revolutionary friendship with the rural youth and are about to get married, is that right?
Hu Mingyue didn't expect the reporter to ask this question, and she smiled awkwardly.
Feng Sanju, who was standing next to him, smiled and said, "Reporter Li, it's true. Hu Zhiqing is shy and is too embarrassed to answer your question.
Hu Zhiqing and Yu Qingmin, a member of our brigade, are already engaged, and they will soon become revolutionary partners.
Reporter Li was also very happy to hear this. "Hu Zhiqing, I don't know if that young man is here. I want to take a photo of you two. This will make the report more convincing and show that you are demonstrating your determination to take root in the countryside through practical actions."
Feng Sanju said enthusiastically, "Comrade Yu Qingmin is also here today as a member representative. I'll go get him. Please wait a moment."
Chu Jingqiu and Shi Aihong were watching from the side. Shi Aihong heard the conversation between the reporter and Feng Sanju and whispered to Chu Jingqiu, "Jingqiu, Hu Mingyue has gotten herself into trouble now!"
Chu Jingqiu smiled and said, "You can tell from her expression that she never thought about marrying Yu Qingmin. But this time she has to marry him."
Zhang Pingping felt that Chu Jingqiu had a far-sighted vision and could see things more clearly than most people.
She is meticulous in her work, planning and deploying everything, taking steady steps, and has a bit of a military temperament.
She gave Chu Jingqiu a thumbs-up and praised him, "Jingqiu, you are truly as foresighted as a god. Nothing can escape your discerning eyes."
After a while, Feng Sanju and Yu Qingmin walked over quickly.
Feng Sanju smiled and introduced him to Reporter Li: "Reporter Li, this is Yu Qingmin, Hu Zhiqing's boyfriend, and he's also a good young man in our brigade."
Li Jun greeted Yu Qingmin, then asked the two to sit on a stool and take a photo together.
Li Jun made an appointment to go to Qingshan Brigade the next day to take a few more photos of Hu Mingyue's life, work and study, and then went to interview another educated youth.
Chu Jingqiu and the other two felt that there was nothing exciting to see, so they decided to go for a walk in the town.
Among the pile of tickets that Gu Weimin gave to Chu Jingqiu that day, there were a few bath tickets. Chu Jingqiu usually took a bath in the space, so she didn't need these bath tickets.
As the weather gets colder, if you don't take a shower at all, it may arouse other people's suspicion.
She gave Shi Aihong and Zhang Pingping a bath ticket each. When they came, they also brought some spare clothes, planning to take a good bath in the afternoon.
The three of them went to a state-owned restaurant for lunch. Zhang Pingping said generously, "I'll treat you all at noon today. I'll always remember how much you've helped me. Consider this meal my way of thanking my two younger sisters."
The three of them ordered beef stew with potatoes, braised pork, stir-fried bean sprouts, and dumpling soup, and also asked for a few steamed buns. It cost Zhang Pingping 1.2 yuan, as well as half a pound of food coupons and half a pound of meat coupons.
After dinner, they came to the state-owned bathhouse in the town. The three of them paid their bath tickets and went in.
The waiter gave each person a key with a rope, a public towel, and a large bath towel, all of which were printed with the name of the bathhouse.
Each person was given a small piece of soap, which was a yellow square and a bit like the size of today's sugar cube.
The three of them put on slippers and went in.
The women's bathing pool has a bathtub and a shower. Chu Jingqiu and Zhang Pingping don't want to soak in the pool as they think it is unhygienic.
The three of them planned to take a shower and take off their clothes. Zhang Pingping and Chu Jingqiu felt that there was nothing embarrassing about taking off their clothes, but Shi Aihong was hesitant and didn't want to take them off.
After the three of them took off their clothes, Chu Jingqiu felt embarrassed because everyone was staring at her.
Shi Aihong whispered, "Jingqiu, you have a great figure. Your skin is as white and delicate as porcelain. You have curves in all the right places. I've never seen such a beautiful body before."
Zhang Pingping joked, "Even a woman like me is moved by you. If I were a man, I would take you home at any cost."
An auntie who was scrubbing the bath next to me said, "Little girl, you are so beautiful. I have worked in the bathhouse for so many years, and I have never seen a girl with a more beautiful body than yours.
Anyone who marries you will have the blessing of several lifetimes."
Shi Aihong and Zhang Pingping simply reached out their dirty hands to touch her. Chu Jingqiu dodged with a smile, and the three girls got into a mess.
They didn't look for anyone to scrub their backs, so the three of them rubbed each other's backs. After washing, they quickly wrapped themselves in bath towels and went outside to put on their clothes.
They drank a pot of tea in the bathhouse and half-dried their hair before leaving the state-owned bathhouse.
All three girls are very beautiful. They have long hair and rosy faces. When they walk on the street, they attract a lot of attention.
At this time, seven or eight young men on bicycles came out of the state-owned bathhouse. They had already seen the three beautiful girls in front of them.
Several young men blocked the three girls' way, and the one leading them said in a scoundrelly tone, "Ladies, where are you going? How about I give you a ride?"
Shi Aihong looked at the group of hooligans in front of her and said angrily: "Get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the road. Who needs you to send it?"
A fat guy next to him said, "Hey, this girl is pretty hot! I like her."
Several young men laughed, and the leading young man said, "Don't be ridiculous, we are just joking with you. We just want to meet some beautiful women.
Let me introduce myself first. We are from the nearby 301 Forest Farm. My name is Lin Lei. Where are you from? What are your names?
Chu Jingqiu glanced at the crowd coldly and said in a cold tone, "Get out of the way. There's no need for us to get to know each other. Your behavior is just hooliganism."
