Chapter 110 He is not to be feared
The team leader received news that a young intellectual had been arranged to come to the village to work as a sent-down youth and was asked to go to the train station to pick him up. He was very confused.
What's going on?
Does this new educated youth have a background?
Come alone at this time.
It's not like he has any backers. He comes here right during the busy farming season, and he's exhausted to death.
The team leader couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think much about it. When the time came, he drove his tractor to the train station himself to see who the person was and why he was going to the countryside at this time.
Halfway, he met Zhou Jingshen who was driving a jeep to the train station to pick someone up.
The two stopped the car and greeted each other.
"Captain, where are you going?" Song Shuyan was the captain of the village where he went to work. He had more than a little face in front of Zhou Jingshen.
The captain is a retired veteran and can be considered a comrade-in-arms.
"Go pick someone up at the train station."
Zhou Jingshen raised his eyebrows. What a coincidence?
He leaned out of the car window and asked the captain, "How many people should we pick up?"
The captain slapped his forehead, his eyes lighting up, "Comrade Zhou, I'll just pick up one person, what about you?"
He thought, if Zhou Jingshen's car could accommodate him, he wouldn't have to make this trip and could ask Comrade Zhou for help in sending the person to the village.
Well, that.
He believed that Comrade Zhou would be very happy, as he loved to go to the village whenever he had time.
Zhou Jingshen understood what he meant and smiled, "What a coincidence, I'm also picking someone up."
The captain's eyes lit up, "Then could you..."
"Okay, Captain, tell me, what's the name of the person you're picking up?"
The team leader didn't shy away from the formality and said, "The person we're picking up is called Ji Chi, a newly arrived educated youth from Beijing."
Ji Chi?
Zhou Jingshen frowned. He remembered that the boy from the Ji family in the compound also had this name.
It can’t be such a coincidence.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
When he was young, one day, Song Tianming complained to him with a smile that the boy from the Shen family and the boy from the Ji family had fought for the chance to be the groom when his sister was playing house.
This Ji Chi couldn't be the same Ji Chi who fought for Song Shuyan, right?
Zhou Jingshen's big, bony hands nonchalantly held the steering wheel and agreed to the captain's request to help him pick someone up.
The captain thanked him happily and went home.
Arrived at the train station.
Zhou Jingshen, with his tall and straight figure, stood out from the crowd. When the train arrived at the station, Gao Sulan got off the train and saw her son in the crowd at a glance.
She waved excitedly, "Son!"
Zhou Jingshen strode over and carried her luggage.
"It's so heavy? What are you carrying?"
Gao Sulan was carrying a lot of bags and was covered with things, and she no longer looked elegant.
Zhou Jingshen took her luggage and carried it in his own hands, and asked Gao Sulan to follow.
After putting the luggage in the jeep, Zhou Jingshen told Gao Sulan to wait in the car because he had someone else to pick up.
Gao Sulan subconsciously asked, "Who should I pick up?"
"Ji Chi." Zhou Jingshen did not hide it.
"Ji Chi?" Gao Sulan was confused. "Is it the kid from the Ji family? Why is he here? When did you get in touch with him?"
The child of the Ji family is several years younger than her own son. She remembered that the two of them had little relationship when they were in the compound.
After all, his son has a rather cold personality and is away from home all year round, so he has few good friends in the compound.
Zhou Jingshen closed the car door and said, "It should be him."
Gao Sulan was even more confused. What did she mean by "it should be him"?
Before she could ask something else, Zhou Jingshen had already walked away.
Ji Chi got off the car carrying heavy luggage, feeling nervous and looking around with his big eyes. The educated youth point told him that someone would come to pick him up on a tractor holding a sign.
He looked around and didn't see any tractor!
At this time, he saw an acquaintance.
"Zhou Jingshen? Why is he here?"
Thinking of the gossip he heard before leaving, that Aunt Zhou would come here to hold a wedding for Shu Yan and Zhou Jingshen, his eyes darkened.
It seems the rumors are true.
Zhou Jingshen looked around and saw Ji Chi.
Even if you are not familiar with each other, you can still recognize each other as long as you live in the same compound.
"Ji Chi."
Ji Chi looked up, "Zhou...Brother Jingshen."
"Are you an educated youth who went to Xiaohe Village?" Zhou Jingshen asked directly.
Ji Chi nodded, slightly surprised, "Yes, you...how did you know?"
Zhou Jingshen took one of his bags and said, "Let's go. I'll pick you up on behalf of the captain."
"Thank...thank you."
Ji Chi followed obediently.
He felt relieved to see someone he knew.
After a long silence, Gao Sulan finally reached the jeep and stuck her head out, her tone somewhat surprised. "Ji family boy, it really is you!"
Ji Chi was a little embarrassed and scratched his head, "Yes, it's me."
Gao Sulan then asked, "What are you doing here?"
Ji Chi was silent and didn't want to say anything.
Zhou Jingshen opened the car door and got in, answering for him, "He's going to the countryside."
"Ready, let's go."
Ji Chi obediently got into the car, sat down and closed the door.
Gao Sulan's surprised voice rang out, "No, what country are you going to?"
Ji Chi stammered, "I signed up myself."
Gao Sulan gave him a look that was indescribable, not knowing whether to say that he was ideologically conscious or that he was stupid.
Seek hardship when there is none.
Ji Chi wanted to cry but had no tears.
He regretted it a long time ago, but there was nothing his family could do.
The old man told him to stay in the countryside for a year, and he would find a way to get him a sick leave quota to return to the city.
There is no reason to quit just after signing up.
Zhou Jingshen raised his eyebrows and drove the car calmly. A young man like this was just wishful thinking and there was nothing to be afraid of.
I’m afraid Shuyan doesn’t even know that people are coming for her.
Zhou Jingshen originally planned to send Gao Sulan to the family compound first, and then send Ji Chi to Xiaohe Village to report.
Gao Sulan refused, "I came all this way just to see my daughter-in-law, didn't I?"
"Let's go to Xiaohe Village together!"
Zhou Jingshen followed orders.
Ji Chi in the back seat felt bitter and astringent.
Reality is too cruel to him!
It was a rare occasion for him to be brave for love, but in the end he was still a step too late and his efforts were in vain.
He didn't even have many chances to look at her twice. As soon as he arrived, she wanted to marry Zhou Jingshen and move out of the Youth League Home.
Zhou Jingshen drove the car to the door of the captain's office and parked. The captain heard the sound and came out, rubbing his hands and asking, "Did you pick up the person?"
Zhou Jingshen got out of the car and introduced Ji Chi, who also got out of the car, to the captain.
"This is Ji Chi."
"Hello, Captain." Knowing that he would have to work under the captain for the next year, Ji Chi greeted him tactfully.
The captain looked Ji Chi up and down.
Ji Chi subconsciously straightened his chest and tightened his abdomen.
The captain patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, is there anyone in your family who is a soldier?"
"yes!"
The team leader was somewhat satisfied with the new educated youth, as he didn't seem to be a spoiled person.
Gao Sulan also got out of the car and urged Zhou Jingshen, "Hurry, take me to find my daughter-in-law!"
Gao Sulan felt very happy. When Song Shuyan was a child, she was very pretty and she liked her very much.
At that time, I was very envious of the Song family for having such a beautiful baby.
