Although he didn't have to go to work on the weekend, Jianshu couldn't stay in bed because he had made an appointment with Chen Banxia to go shopping.
After getting up and washing up, I applied sunscreen all over my body. Although there is a space spring, some necessary protection is still necessary.
Because I had to go out today and didn't have time to make breakfast, I took out fried dough sticks, buns and soy milk from the space for breakfast.
Just as she drank the last sip of soy milk, there was a knock on the door. Perhaps worried that she couldn't hear it, there was also a loud call: "Shushu, Shushu, I'm here, are you ready?"
Jianshu quickly threw all the garbage into the space. There was a trash can in the space building that could automatically clean up the garbage. This was very important to Jianshu.
After all, she often eats things that she stored in the space in her previous life. If there is no trash can, it will be difficult to deal with those packaging bags and so on.
And when she gets her period, she will definitely need to use sanitary napkins. She may not be used to using menstrual belts nowadays. When she is done, she can just throw the used ones into the trash can in the bathroom.
As she started packing her things, she called out to the outside, "I'm coming, Sister Banxia, wait a moment, I'll be there soon."
He took out an army green shoulder bag and stuffed a lunch box inside.
I will definitely go to a state-owned restaurant for lunch today after going shopping, so I can pack some food to take back.
I just don’t know if there will be braised pork today. It tasted really good last time and she has been thinking about it for several days.
After packing up, he hurried out. When he reached the door, Chen Banxia was also carrying a shoulder bag like Jianshu.
"Sister Banxia, I feel like, let's go."
"Okay, Shushu, let's go to the movies first, then go shopping in the department store, and finally have lunch at the state-owned restaurant. What do you think?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
The two of them also wanted to walk and stroll around, so they didn't ride bicycles.
We started chatting naturally while walking on the street.
Jianshu thought of Chen Banxia going to the countryside, so he showed some concern. "Sister Banxia, you're going to the countryside in a week, right?"
Chen Banxia nodded naturally and said, "Yes, I'm leaving next weekend, which is still a week away."
Seeing her eager look, Jian Shu couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Having grown up in the city, how could they possibly understand the hardships of going to the countryside?
I don’t know how many people will want to come back in two years, but the population pressure in the city is so great that it will be almost impossible to go home.
Some people even broke their legs in order to return, and then retreated back to the city due to illness.
I don’t know if the Chen family will be able to get her back by then. If not, it’s only 1968, and there are still nine years before the college entrance examination. She will have to stay in the countryside for at least another nine years.
It can be said that my entire youth has been left there. I wonder if I will regret it when the time comes.
"Have you prepared everything? You must have more things in Beijing. You can buy them in advance and send them over when the time comes." Jianshu reminded her, worried that she had not thought about this aspect.
"My mother has prepared all the daily necessities for me. I'm going to buy some vanishing cream and the like today so that I can buy them when the time comes."
"You can buy some of those first. They don't take up space anyway. If you run out, you can send them back by mail and they'll send more to you."
You actually need to pay attention to sun protection over there, but there is no sunscreen sold in China now, and Jianshu cannot take out the sunscreen from the space.
"Okay, I'll send a letter back when I get there, and we can contact each other then." Chen Banxia agreed with Jianshu's suggestion.
After all, she just wanted to support rural construction, not to suffer hardship. If it could make her life better, she would not be so stupid as to refuse and would do it herself.
"When you get there, you can tell Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen how often you'll send a letter back. That way, they can rest assured and avoid being worried about you being so far away and not knowing what's going on."
In this era, if something happens to an educated youth, and they are so far away from home and have no news at all, it is better to make some preparations in advance.
He added, "Don't think I'm being nosy. Although most farmers are simple and honest, there are some pests. You should be more careful over there. If anything really happens and your letter doesn't arrive by the estimated time, Auntie and the others can come looking for you."
Even though we weren't close friends, Aunt Chen and the others were nice people, so a reminder wouldn't hurt. Maybe it would actually be helpful?
Chen Banxia is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good for him, nor is he a fool. He has never experienced the harshness of society and will not think the worst of others.
I know that Jianshu’s reminder is for her own good, otherwise who would go to such trouble to say these things?
"Shushu, thank you. I know you're doing this for my own good. If there's anything else you need to pay attention to, just let me know.
Don't worry, I'll remember your words and pay attention to it when the time comes." Chen Banxia said with emotion, holding Jian Shu's hand.
Seeing that his good intentions were not wasted, Jianshu was very happy. "What I mean is that you should not stand out and just do your own thing quietly. But you can't let others bully you or anything. You can only control the degree by yourself."
When you get there, if the educated youth you're with are okay, you should build good relationships with them. After all, you are natural allies.
Don't be too distant from the villagers. After all, you'll be staying there for a few years, so you don't want to offend the locals."
Originally, Jianshu wanted to persuade her not to get married there, but then he thought that Chen Banxia was already eighteen years old this year, and if he came back in nine years, he would be twenty-seven.
In this day and age, that age is too old. If you say this, you will easily be blamed in the end. There is no need to do that.
