Today is the day the village goes to the town's grain station to deliver public grain, and all the educated youth in the village went to the drying ground to help.
Although it was only eight o'clock in the morning, everyone was full of energy. Because they had handed over their grain to the state, they could share the remaining grain together.
Since the village couldn't get a tractor, the villagers had to gather all the handcarts together, load the grain they needed to hand over onto the handcarts, and then have the stronger villagers pull them to the grain station to deliver it.
They were working hard when suddenly they heard several children running and shouting, "The car is coming into the village! The car is coming into the village! The car is coming into our village!"
"Dog Egg, what kind of car is this? Where did it come from?" Village Chief Song Chang asked.
"It's a four-wheeled vehicle that came to our village."
Everyone's face showed surprise, and the people on the threshing ground immediately began to whisper among themselves: Has an important person come into our village? What is he here for?
Some nosy old ladies ran to the village entrance at lightning speed, wishing they could fly, hoping to get the first scoop so they could brag about it in the village.
Regardless of what others thought, Su Tian quietly carried the rice onto the cart. The villagers knew she was strong and hardworking, so they arranged for her to help carry the rice onto the cart.
Everyone in the village liked her very much, and they would often call her "Shu Zhiqing" (a term of endearment for educated youth) whenever they saw her. Besides, she had a sweet tongue, and she had almost become good friends with the older women in the village.
"Su Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing, that car is here to see you!" The elderly woman, who moved with lightning speed, came running up, panting.
"Auntie, you said the people in the car came to see me?" Su Tian stopped what she was doing. She felt very strange. She didn't know any rich people.
"Yes, I asked them, and they did come to see you. There was a man, a woman, and a child."
After the old woman finished speaking, they saw a black car drive into the drying ground, stop in an open space, and a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit get out of the car.
Then an elegant and intellectual middle-aged woman got out of the car, holding a three-year-old boy in her arms.
Now Su Tian knew what it was all about. It turned out to be about the little boy and his family that she had snatched from human traffickers in town last time.
"Is Su Tian here?" the middle-aged man asked.
“Su Tian is here,” an older woman called out loudly.
"I am Su Tian, hello everyone," Su Tian said as she walked up to the man.
"I've finally found you. Thank you so much. I only had time to thank you now because I needed to cooperate with the police station's investigation."
Thank you for helping to catch the human traffickers; otherwise, my child would have been taken away. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Jian, and my given name is Jian Qingshan. You can call me Uncle Jian.
This is my wife, her surname is Lu, her name is Lu Xinglan, you can call her Aunt Lu. This is my child, her name is Jian Haixing, her nickname is Xingxing.”
"Come here, Xingxing, this is your sister Su Tian. Hurry up and greet her."
"Sister Su Tian, thank you for saving me," Little Star said in a soft voice.
"You're welcome, Uncle Jian. It's what I should do."
Why don't you come with me to the former educated youth settlement, sit down, have a drink of water, and then we can talk? It's crowded, a bit noisy, and a bit hot here.
"Okay, get in the car. I'll drive to the educated youth settlement. Please give me directions."
The brigade leader and the village chief stood together discussing, never expecting that their village had produced a female hero.
"Song Aidang, did this Su educated youth really catch human traffickers?"
"How could it be fake? The real owner has come knocking on our door."
"If we really catch human traffickers, do you think we should report it to the commune and have the commune commend Su, the educated youth?"
“Brother Song, we don’t need to report this problem, right? The police will report it. If they don’t report it, then we’ll go to the commune leaders,” Captain Song said.
"If this is reported to the commune, wouldn't our village be considered an advanced collective?"
"Haha...maybe, Brother Song."
The villagers were all talking about it. Their village actually had a great hero who caught human traffickers. This Su educated youth was really amazing. He had done something remarkable.
Human traffickers are hated by everyone. Every family has children, and they all hate human traffickers.
The other village officials were overjoyed, knowing their village would be praised at the year-end meeting at the commune.
Although everyone was very happy, they worked quickly, pulling cart after cart of grain toward the grain station.
Su Tian directed Jian Qingshan to the educated youth settlement, and they arrived in less than ten minutes.
"Uncle Jian, Aunt Lu, Little Star, we've arrived. Please get out of the car and rest for a while. I'll get you some chairs to sit on."
As soon as Jian Qingshan got out of the car, he went to the back of the car, opened the trunk, and took out all the gifts. The gifts included: two cans of malted milk powder, two cans of milk powder, two packs of White Rabbit candy, two packs of brown sugar, two pieces of cured pork, two packs of sausage, a piece of pork belly, and an old hen.
Looking at the gifts on the ground, Su Tian quickly said, "Uncle Jian, this is too much. Please take it back for Little Star to eat."
"Not much? Where is it too much? I think it's not enough. If it weren't for you, Little Star would have been kidnapped somewhere."
He's our only child, and the elders in the family cherish him dearly.
My husband and I were taking him to visit his maternal grandparents a few days ago when we were caught off guard and were targeted by human traffickers.
We drove from Donghai City to Qinzhou Town to visit relatives. I am the factory manager of a steel plant, and my wife is the head of the publicity department of the Donghai City government.
