After winter came, the educated youth who wanted to go home for the New Year began to take annual leave and go home one after another.
In fact, under normal circumstances, educated youth could only take annual leave for about half a month. Educated youth from other places, especially those in the south, would not be able to take annual leave to go home until a few days before the New Year.
Because crops are grown twice a year, or even three times a year, the educated youth had to work in the fields with the villagers even in winter.
Therefore, there are only a few days to rest throughout the year.
Xu Nanxing didn't want to work all year round, so he decided to go to the countryside in the Northeast.
After all, if you plant three crops a year, that means you have to go through three "autumn harvests"!
Xu Nanxing has already experienced an autumn harvest. If she hadn't practiced martial arts for a period of time to be able to persevere throughout the whole process, she really couldn't imagine what it would be like to have three "autumn harvests" a year!
Anyway, it must be fatal!
But it’s different here in the north!
As soon as winter comes, the temperature drops to minus ten or twenty degrees Celsius, making it impossible to do farm work.
So in the north, there is a saying that we work for half a year and rest for half a year!
After winter comes, educated youth who want to go home can apply for annual leave from the village committee. The village will not make it too difficult and will approve it directly.
Anyway, all we have to do is come back in the spring to participate in the spring plowing!
In this way, the educated youth can take a long leave, even one or two months of annual leave!
However, some educated youth did not take annual leave, after all, they needed money to go home!
Many educated youth have been working in the countryside for many years and are still barely able to make ends meet, so going home is a luxury for them!
Moreover, many educated youth stayed in the countryside for several years. Over time, their families' feelings for these children would gradually decrease, and they would instead have better feelings for the children who stayed with them.
Even if I took leave to go home, all I thought about were my parents and relatives, but when I finally got home, I felt like a guest staying there temporarily!
These are what Chen Jiaxin said to Xu Nanxing. "You don't know! Sister Xiuying sold the food she had saved last year and finally saved enough for the train fare. She traveled all the way back home with great difficulty. Because she came home empty-handed, her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law were all very displeased with her and said she was eating for free. But Sister Xiuying used to mail the food she couldn't bear to eat back home. This time, she sold the food because she wanted to exchange it for the train ticket. How dare they treat their daughter who went to the countryside like this!"
Chen Jiaxin has the best relationship with Chen Xiuying, so when she knew that Sister Xiuying was treated like this at home, she felt very sorry for her!
"The most important thing is that Sister Xiuying's room was also occupied by her nephews and nieces, so she could only sleep on the floor in the living room when she returned home. But it was freezing cold and she only had a thin quilt. She couldn't stand the cold at home, so she came back on the second day of the Lunar New Year. As a result, she started to have a fever and talk nonsense after returning to the educated youth center. It was another female educated youth who shared the room with her that discovered her and took her to the health center, saving her life!"
Xu Nanxing was also very sad about this.
Afterwards, Chen Jiaxin and Su Qingqing also took annual leave and went home. Chen Xiuying may have felt estranged from her family because of what happened during the Chinese New Year last year, so she did not choose to go home.
Zhang Luyao, Li Xueyu and a group of children from the compound went home together to celebrate the New Year.
Xu Nanxing did not go back to Beijing this time. After all, her grandfather and uncle were in Shanghe Village, so she had to stay in the village to celebrate the New Year with them.
Xu Nanxing had already written a New Year's greeting letter and sent it to Li Yan in advance, also explaining why she stayed in the village for the New Year.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the films invested by Xu Nanxing, who is far away in Hong Kong, have been completed one after another and have entered the intense post-production editing stage.
After all, Xu Nanxing requested that these two films be released during the Chinese New Year!
