"My name is Duan Ping'an, I'm from Kyoto, I'm 20 years old, and I just went to the countryside last year," said a male educated youth with a somewhat nonchalant temperament, "This is my childhood friend, we came here together."
The man Duan Ping'an put his arm around was a handsome guy. He introduced himself, "My name is Gu Shuyuan, I'm 20 years old, and I welcome the new educated youth."
Su Qingmeng felt that their names were somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember when she had heard them before.
There was only one tall and strong male educated youth left. He introduced himself as Zhu Shouxin, a native of this province, 23 years old, and had been in the countryside for two years.
On the female educated youth side, an older woman with thick eyebrows and big eyes spoke up, "Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Fang, I'm 27 years old, and I'm the person in charge of the girls' side. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask me for help."
"My name is Chang Hong, I'm from Sichuan, I'm 22 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for three years." The speaker was a girl with almond-shaped eyes.
"My name is Yang Ping, I'm from Changzhou, I'm 22 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for three years." The gentle older sister spoke.
A light flashed through Su Qingmeng's mind. Gu Shuyuan, Duan Ping'an, Yang Ping, aren't these the names from the book "The Sweet Life of the Village Girl in the 1970s" that she stayed up late to read before traveling through time!
The heroine of this book is Lin Xiaoyuan, the daughter of an accountant. She meets Gu Shuyuan, the son of a high-ranking official from Beijing. They fall in love, overcome setbacks, and finally live happily together. Su Qingmeng suppressed her thoughts, thinking, "I'll find out what the accountant's daughter's name is tomorrow."
"My name is Miledi, I'm from Shanxi, I'm 23 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for two years," a very thin female educated youth introduced herself.
"My name is Zhou Wenxi, I'm 25 years old, from Shanghai, and I've been working in the countryside for three years." The old educated youth finished introducing herself.
When it was the turn of the new educated youth, Wang Aiguo was the first to speak. Judging from his appearance, he had a lively personality. "My name is Wang Aiguo, I'm 18 years old and from Ontario."
"My name is Cao Dazhi, I'm 19 years old and from Hebei," said another male educated youth.
"My name is Tian Ke, I'm 18 years old and from Nanjing."
"My name is Gao Xiaohuan, I'm 17 years old and from Jinan."
"My name is Su Qingmeng, I'm 18 years old, and I'm from Suzhou." The introductions of the three female educated youth were neat and brief, sounding a bit perfunctory. Su Qingmeng thought, this is a good thing. Knowing that she was traveling through a book, she wanted to stay hidden even more, especially stay away from the male lead and the female supporting role.
"Everyone, get along well with each other in the future. Tomorrow morning at 6:30, the new educated youth will go to the brigade headquarters to collect food and have dinner." Hu Aidang said.
Everyone started eating. The dishes were scrambled eggs with tomatoes, mixed cucumbers, and stir-fried eggplant with green peppers. The rice was corn porridge. The dishes tasted just okay. Su Qingmeng ate a few bites and finished the porridge.
After dinner, everyone took their lunch boxes and left. Zhang Fang and Milaidi cleaned up. Seeing she couldn't help much, she went back with Zhou Wenxi.
On the way back, she observed that the male protagonist and his childhood friend lived in the two single rooms in the front yard, and from east to west in the backyard were Ye Siyuan, an empty room, Tian Ke and Gao Xiaohuan, an empty room, herself, and Zhou Wenxi.
Su Qingmeng asked, "Sister Xiaoqian, is there anyone living across from Tian Ke and her room?" If no one was living there, the team leader should have put her there too. "Oh, that's Yang Yuanyuan's room. She married into the team and hasn't refunded the rent. She comes back to live there from time to time," Zhou Wenqian said calmly. Su Qingmeng suspected there might be some hidden reason, but she didn't ask any more questions.
"By the way, how much is the rent for a single room?" Su Qingmeng asked. "Twelve per year." This price was quite reasonable. After all, it was a rural adobe house, and there weren't many educated youth living in single rooms.
