Chapter 674 People Going to the Countryside

"Why would I lie to you, twice! I tell you, she's much better than the widow Hou in the village. Her skin is so tender, and her legs, neck, and…"

Having said that, Liu Guangfu touched his empty pockets and shook his head.

"Damn it, I'm out of money. I haven't touched a woman for more than two months since I caught that snake last time. I really miss it."

Yan Jiekuang also shook his head helplessly.

He would never do such a thing as giving half a snake to a widow just for that one shiver.

The two were about to continue chatting when a crackling sound suddenly came from the direction of the brigade, followed by the village party secretary's thick Shaanxi accent.

"Notice, notice, that, that, the educated youth in the village should hurry to the brigade headquarters. The educated youth in the village should hurry to the brigade headquarters. There is an important matter. Hurry up.

I’ll let you know again…”

Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang looked at each other and couldn't help but start complaining.

"Are you going to ask us to weed again? We'll be burned to death in this scorching sun!"

"When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Damn it, if I find a chance, I will definitely bring disaster to his daughter."

"Brother Guangfu, please don't do anything rash. Last time, a sheep thief came and was beaten to death. Have you forgotten?"

"Tsk, that's different. If you kill me, what will happen to his daughter? She will have to beg me to be her son-in-law."

The two men talked with their mouths, but their actions were honest, and they quickly came to the brigade headquarters.

It's actually a bigger cave.

At this time, nine educated youth, five men and four women, had gathered at the entrance of the cave. They were also dressed simply and covered in dust.

This place is far away from the city and information is very isolated. Many things take a long time for the commune to know before they are spread here.

Things are special today, so the village chief and village party secretary used the loudspeaker.

Seeing that everyone was present, the village chief walked out of the cave with a few pieces of paper in his hand.

"Well, everyone is here, listen carefully, the commune has sent a notice saying that the educated youth can go back."

When these words were spoken, all the educated youth became excited.

When I came here, I was full of enthusiasm, but in these few years, my enthusiasm has completely cooled.

They have long wanted to leave this shabby place.

"Don't panic, don't panic, I haven't finished yet."

The village chief went on to say: “Not everyone can leave, only those who are only children, employed or attending university can leave.

If you want to leave, please write a letter home quickly. The commune's postman will come over soon. It's not easy for him to come here, so he can take all the letters back to you.

Go ahead, go ahead. I'll give you ten minutes, so hurry up."

After saying that, the village chief waved his hand and returned to the cave.

After hearing this, the other nine educated youths hurried to the educated youth site.

However, Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang were not in the mood and walked at a leisurely pace.

Every family has its own problems, and everyone has similar sufferings.

If he could find a job, Liu Guangfu would not have gone to the countryside three years ago, and Yan Jiekuang did not have much hope for Yan Bugui.

With such an opportunity, everyone would be scrambling to get the work quotas, and there would be no chance for the stingy Yan family to get any.

Before the two men walked out of the brigade headquarters, the village chief's voice was heard behind them again.

"Liu Guangfu, Yan Jiekuang, you don't have to go back, take a look at this."

As he spoke, he handed two pieces of paper to the two men.

"I have already written it for you. You can take a look, add to it, write the address, and then hand it directly to the postman."

"Village chief, this is not good, right?" Liu Guangfu gave a bitter smile.

He could tell that she was eager for them to leave.

The village chief's face turned grim.

"What's wrong with that? To tell you the truth, you can't leave just because you meet the requirements. This requires the agreement of the commune and the village. There are eleven educated youth in the village, and at most two can leave this year. Remember, this is the opportunity I'm giving you.

You must explain clearly to your family that if you lose this opportunity, I tell you, you will stay in the village for the rest of your life."

"Okay, we'll try to leave!"

Liu Guangfu was not stupid and agreed quickly.

No wonder.

He and Yan Jiekuang, one has a disability in his legs and can't do heavy work, and he is also lazy, while the other is simply a reincarnated abacus expert who takes advantage of everyone he goes to.

The village was poor and the temple was small, so they could not afford to support these two huge Buddha statues.

The two men took the letter and added a few sentences. After the village chief read it, he polished it a little, put it in an envelope, and waited for the postman to come back.

After Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang left, other educated youth also sent their letters one after another.

But this time, the village chief didn't even look at it. After everyone left, he threw it all under the stove.

If there are capable and good young men among the educated youth, they should stay in the village.

As for the female educated youth, it would be perfect for them to be wives in the village.

Want to leave? No way!

Northeast Panjin.

A thin figure covered his lower back with one hand, held a hoe with the other, gasped for breath, and cursed again in his heart.

This person is Bang Geng who is about to turn twenty years old.

After more than two years in the countryside, I haven't grown taller, but I've lost a lot of weight and become uglier.

What the subdistrict office said back then was right, no one will starve in the Great Northern Wilderness.

But I didn’t say anything, I’m so tired!

Women are used like men, and men are simply used like donkeys.

Just tell me whether there is or not?!

After arriving, I caught up with the spring plowing work, preparing the land, and sowing corn and soybeans, working day and night.

Next came the summer harvest, and we rushed to harvest winter wheat and plant millet, still working day and night.

There is no way, the place is large and the labor force is small.

If we work less, we will have less food, and the whole country is short of food.

The summer harvest is finally over, and I can finally take a break.

As a result, everyone was given a hoe and asked to reclaim wasteland, and there was no end to the wasteland that could be reclaimed.

What else is there to say? There is plenty of time to rest in winter.

Ok.

There is indeed time to rest.

The land reclamation continued until the autumn harvest, and we worked day and night until the end of October.

After turning the fields, there was heavy snow, which was so freezing that it was almost freezing.

You can't help but take a rest.

During this rest period, you have to stay indoors for four months and cannot even go out to pee, as you may freeze into a stick.

Some people don't believe it, and then they lose their ears or fingers.

The only benefit may be that you can eat meat.

There were indeed a lot of prey in the Northeast. The Construction Corps knew the hard work of the educated youth and would send some meat and fish from time to time. While they worked, they could also catch prey from time to time.

However, there are too many wolves and too little meat.

There are two large bunk beds in one room, accommodating twenty people.

The place where he was was almost entirely populated by educated youth, numbering thousands.

With Banggeng's small body, who can he compete with?

Of course, he has also thrown tantrums, glared, complained, and been lazy.

But everyone knows what the Northeast is.

They can take action, but generally don’t argue.

If you just look at him, you might get beaten up, every punch hitting your flesh.

Some people seem to be uncomfortable if they don't fight for a day and stare at you all day long.

After being beaten several times, Banggeng became completely obedient.

And now is the period of pioneering. Looking at the pioneering tasks that have not been completed today, Banggeng really wants to go back to Sijiu City.
