Chapter 776 Another New Educated Youth

Han Li saw Village Chief Zhao driving an ox cart, and combined with some news he had heard recently, he quickly guessed that Village Chief Zhao was here to pick up the educated youth who had arrived in Shanghe Village this year.

"Uncle Zhao."

Han Li shouted and asked Village Chief Zhao, who was leaning on the side of the oxcart and smoking, to look towards him. He stretched out his hand and pulled the reins to stop the oxcart. Han Li jumped off the horse and sat down. Arrived at the bullock cart.

"Han Li, where are you going when you leave the city? How is your health now?"

"There hasn't been much going on in the unit these past two days, and my body has almost recovered, so I plan to go back to our village to stay for a few days. I won't be in a hurry to go back when you come. I'll help you finish the work. Let's have a drink together at noon. Go back to the village."

Han Li's "Our Village" made Village Chief Zhao feel very comfortable, and the smile on his face became even wider.

"You must take good care of your health when you are young, otherwise you will suffer when you get older. I am here to pick up the new educated youths today. No need to help. Otherwise, you should go back first."

"New educated youth? Isn't it said that most of them are students from the county this year? Then we can just let them go by themselves."

"That's what everyone said before. I didn't know until I received a call from the Educated Youth Office yesterday that some of these educated youths are from neighboring counties and cities, and there are also some from other provinces, but the number is relatively small. I don't know what happened this time. How is it allocated? If there is a choice, I don’t want any of these young boys and girls in the county. "

Han Li understood the meaning behind Village Chief Zhao's words. He didn't want to accept students from the county, and he was embarrassed to say clearly that he wanted to go to Aunt Liu to help him adjust. This was not difficult, but he wanted to know why Village Chief Zhao didn't He was willing to accept nearby students, so he said it as a joke.

"Uncle Zhao, your idea is exactly the opposite of others. Many people say that children in the county who jump in the local queue are just like going to work. They come in the morning and leave at night. Both the family and the village save worry."

"Easy to worry? Easy to worry about. Haha, the children from the countryside in this kind of county are the hardest to deal with. It can be seen from the fact that the children in the village go to school in the county. They look down on the village even more than the educated youth from the big city. people.

But they are still the hardest to discipline. If the discipline is strict, these half-year-old children who are guarding the family will definitely dare to make trouble for everyone. If the discipline is looser, people like them can raise Shanghe Village after all these years. The established rules are distorted.

Also, walking back and forth every day seems to me to be the most annoying thing. We can still make do in this season, but in winter, these half-grown children want to go home, and their foreheads are hot. It doesn’t matter how late it gets or how deep the snow is on the road. It’s a trivial matter if you’re freezing on the road, but it’s troublesome if you encounter a big smoker and get lost. "

When Han Li heard what Village Chief Zhao said, these students who were close to home were different from people like Han Li who came from afar. Han Li and the others were far away from home and came from their original comfort zone to a new place. In a strange environment, half-grown children without parents or relatives to rely on, even if some people have a little rebelliousness and willfulness in their hearts, under such circumstances, nothing will be left.

But as for these recent graduates in the county, they are all people who keep their families in the local area. It would be okay to put them in other villages. It can even be said to be a relatively good thing, because their village can establish a relationship with the people in the county. .

However, Shanghe Village is managed very well by Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang, and Village Chief Zhao also has this connection. If there are thorns among these people, or people with more personality, it will be difficult for Shanghe Village to survive. The rules may not be maintained.

Also, unlike people like Han Li, the young men in these counties can get in touch with each other through the seven aunts and eighth aunts in the local area.

What if a county or commune leader negotiates a relationship with Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang to give him a scorekeeper? To a squad leader? Or give it to a female director? No matter what you give, it will break the existing balance in the village.

how to say? Regardless of whether these people in the county have thorns or not, in the eyes of Village Chief Zhao and others, they are just like a piece of smelly meat. Once these people come to Shanghe Village, they will most likely spoil the entire pot of soup. Han Li wants to understand Then he said to Village Chief Zhao with a smile.

"It's hard to say yet. Uncle Zhao wants students from somewhere. I'll go find Aunt Liu to help adjust. I guess there will be no problem."

"It's better to trouble Director Liu about this, right?"

"I guess it will be fine. As long as our village accepts a large number of people, none of them can say anything. Let's go to the Educated Youth Office right now, and we will go back together after the processing is completed."

After the matter was settled, Han Li rode quickly to the Educated Youth Office, while Village Chief Zhao drove the ox cart slowly behind.

Today's Educated Youth Office is very busy. The educated youth from far away haven't arrived yet, but there are already many parents in the courtyard who want to send their children to the countryside. Even in this county, there are still many people who want to send their children. By the way, you can also follow The captain who came to pick him up was close.

Han Li came to the Educated Youth Office and went directly to Aunt Liu's office. This matter was really not that difficult. After Aunt Liu heard this, she just called the person in charge of the matter to come and explain.

But before Village Chief Zhao came to the Educated Youth Office, Han Li was nagged again by Aunt Liu.

Han Li was freed only after Village Chief Zhao arrived, but this time he also saw how these educated youths were distributed.

Those who were able to say hello in advance went to villages related to their families. Those who did not say hello in advance and those educated youth from other places will be assigned according to the current situation of each village. The number of people assigned to each village is relatively reasonable. .

The only point of contention between these village chiefs and brigade captains is the issue of men and women. No one wants female educated youths. The way to deal with this problem is also very simple, that is, let these brigade captains draw lots. If they are unlucky, they will all be drawn. You can only recognize female educated youths.

It is said that the rule of drawing lots was originally adopted by the Educated Youth Office as a last resort after the team leaders had several physical conflicts over the allocation of male and female educated youths.

Village Chief Zhao's luck was moderate this time. He successfully captured three male educated youths and two female educated youths from Shanghe Village.

However, Han Li didn't even look at their information or names, because he probably wouldn't have much chance to deal with these five people in the future.

After the team leaders drew lots, they went to the courtyard to gather the educated youth from their own villages and then went back. At this time, Village Chief Zhao had achieved his goal and said to Han Li with a smile.

"I drove the bullock cart and asked them to walk back to our village as usual. Let these half-year-old children exercise first. You don't have to waste this time on the road with me. You can go back to rest on horseback."

When Han Li heard that Village Chief Zhao was still doing this, he suspected that it was his bad taste. If he followed him, he would probably be hated more easily than Village Chief Zhao. Although he didn't care, he had no interest in following a group of people. He slowly went back. Wouldn't it be nice to have this time to go home and hug He Mi? So he agreed immediately after hearing what Village Chief Zhao said.

Han Li went to the office to say hello to Aunt Liu. Village Chief Zhao was standing on the bullock cart with a list of names and was about to call someone. Many parents who came to inquire about the news gathered around him, and they started asking noisily if their children had been assigned this. Village, Han Li did not step forward when he saw this. Instead, he waved to Village Chief Zhao and got a response before riding away.

When Han Li was left alone, as soon as he left the county town, he knocked his horse's belly with his legs and shouted loudly.

"shelf"

The little brown horse has been locked up in the shed of the security department for this period of time. It has been suffocated for a long time. Now it gets the order, raises its head and neighs, shakes off its four long legs and rushes forward with all its strength.

It would be an exaggeration to say that it was lightning fast on this road, but the speed of the little brown horse was definitely the most beautiful on this road. It continuously surpassed every target within its sight, which also allowed Han Li to enjoy it in this hot summer. A handful of cool sensation.

After returning to Shanghe Village, Han Li specially rewarded the little brown horse with a handful of beans.

After Han Li put it in the stable, he went home. He first went to his house to comfort the dogs, Ruhua, and Xiyu, petted a few little lynxes vigorously, and put the free-range chicken in the yard. Inside, let the crows and owls go back to their nests halfway up the mountain, and then they came to the backyard and climbed over the wall through the flying bees to reach He Mi's house.

Han Li wanted to realize He Mi's idea, but he couldn't communicate further because He Mi's period had just come yesterday, and now it was the most ferocious period. He Mi looked at Han Li's disappointed look and smiled. He pinched him and said.

"I really don't know why you are so addicted. How can I survive alone if we are together every day? Why don't you think about what I said before? Qi Xiaomei has grown up now. She should be bigger. The place is big, but the place that should be small is small, and I told you, Qi Xiaomei..."

"Don't make trouble, am I this kind of person in your eyes? I am already content to have you as my confidante. Besides, Qi Xiaomei has been pitiful since she was a child, and I can't make any promises to her, so don't talk about it anymore. ”

"You, Qi Xiaomei told me what happened when she was a child. It was precisely because of these things that she decided not to marry. She was afraid that her children would suffer the same fate when she was gone suddenly, so it's not a good idea for you to accept her. How about us? There is no need to separate people, so you don’t have to hold half of it in every time, and I don’t have to worry about holding it in for you. "

Han Li once again rejected He Mi's proposal. In order to prevent her from continuing, he told He Mi what he was hiding in his heart and told He Mi directly that there was no need to worry about anything messy.

"Stop talking about this matter. Just study more when you have time. I recently found out from various newspapers that the situation is very good. If my estimate is correct, the country should resume exams soon, and we can all leave by then. here.

But you don’t know Qi Xiaomei’s situation. When she didn’t know how to read, she was very motivated to learn. She learned how to teach her how to do it. But now her mind is all about cooking, and she can’t read the books I bought. Can't see in.

If things go as I predicted, her chances of going to college after the resumption of exams will be very low. Even if I find someone to get her with us at that time, it will take a long time with good luck.

Who knows what will happen during this period? Maybe she will meet the one she loves. Then it would be great to let this miserable girl spend the rest of her life happily and make up for the suffering she suffered when she was a child. "

"Impossible, Qi Xiaomei suffered too many crimes when she was a child, so she is very determined and it is difficult to change her mind. How about you agree? Brother Han, can you bear to watch? I feel like I’m emptying out every time and I still can’t make it to the end?”

He Mi would secretly shout Brother Han when there were only two of them. Even at the most critical moment, Han Li would spare He Mi when he heard this title, but now he still chose to change the topic.

"My guess is not wrong, so let's discuss this matter later, okay?"

"You, actually Hou Yuhua is also a good candidate. Even if your guess is correct, her height is destined to not be smooth in this life. As the saying goes, the father is shorter. One is shorter, and the mother is shorter. The other is shorter. Men of similar heights will not. Marry her, most men would not like her at all because of her character, how about I look for her, touch her, and let her."

Han Li became more and more excited as he listened to He Mi's talk. Of course he was happy in his heart, because this showed his strength in every aspect. However, He Mi could not continue talking about Hou Yuhua. It would not be fun if he was exposed. .

So Han Li directly interrupted He Mi's words, took her hand and put it on his leg and said softly.

"Think about it, my height is Hou Yuhua, do you think she can be suitable? This is not a small thing, but it can cost someone's life."

Hemi.

"Right? I'm still saying the same thing. I'm content to have you as my confidante. What's the point of enduring it for you? So let's not talk about it anymore. I rode back and got covered in dirt and went to the river. Take a bath inside and cook me something delicious at home.”

After Han Li finished speaking, he kissed He Mi, stood up and put on a three-hole vest, large pants, and slippers. He took a towel and soap and kissed He Mi again before walking out.

Han Li walked out for a while before He Mi reacted.

"Is it to cause death rather than to refuse? Could it be that..., no, I will try again later."

Han Li walked upstream along the river, and finally came to the place where he and Meng Zaihong used to swim and play in the water.

This place is far away from the village and the water quality is very clean. Most people will basically not walk so far to come here.

Moreover, the reeds here are very thick. Even the children in the village do not like to choose such a place if they want to catch fish and shrimp.

The reeds were a natural barrier. Han Li didn't have to worry about being disturbed while bathing here.

Han Li swam in the river twice and washed himself with soap on the riverside. Seeing that it was still early and there was nothing he could do when he went home, he flattened a piece of reed in the shallow water. Lie on it and let the river water wash over your body, and let some naughty and bold fish peck at the soles of your feet and toes.

At this moment, Han Li's mood was extremely calm. As time went by, he became calmer and calmer. He seemed to have fallen into a state where he forgot both things and himself.

The amount of blood squeezed out of Han Li's "Heart Fire" was getting smaller and smaller, but not only did his body not show any damage or weakness, the density of his body and internal organs seemed to be getting closer and closer.

When the sun was about to set, the drop in temperature caused the temperature of the river water to drop a lot. The cold river water made Han Li wake up. He felt as if he had slept well, and his whole body and mind felt... It was very comfortable, but it was a pity that Han Li knew nothing about what had just happened.

Han Li looked at the burning clouds in the sky to the west and realized that it was getting late. He didn't care about enjoying the beautiful sunset. He quickly wiped his body with a towel, got dressed and walked back along the river.

Han Li was humming an unknown tune as he walked home. He didn't even notice a pair of eyes in the reeds along the riverside watching him as he passed by and headed into the village.

When Han Li returned home, Hou Yuhua had returned with several dogs outside to collect buds for Feilong. She was cooking with He Mi, but they didn't mind the heat either. They had two heads next to the stove. They even gathered together and whispered, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Brother Han is back."

"I have already made the tea for you and let it cool down. You have a cup of tea first. It will probably take a while before the rice is ready. The main reason is that it is a waste of time to stew the beef you brought back."

"Don't be in a hurry for dinner, just take your time."

Han Li picked up the teacup as he spoke, moved a stool and sat at the door of the house to chat with the two of them. Soon, the sound of everyone finishing work could be heard from the street outside.

At this time, Village Chief Zhao returned to Shanghe Village with the five newly arrived educated youths. They were now just like the old educated youths who arrived this month. Everyone was sweaty, exhausted, and in a state of embarrassment.

The two female educated youths were more particular. They would wipe their faces and necks with handkerchiefs from time to time, so their situation was slightly better.

But the appearance of the three male educated youths was not good. The dust that fell on their faces on the road was washed away by sweat and left mud marks. They used their arms and palms to pull away, causing mud marks to appear on their faces and necks. If The three of them changed into tattered clothes, and basically no makeup was needed to play the role of disciples of the Beggar Clan.

Village Chief Zhao, as before, left these new educated youths to Zhang Xiangjun and ignored them.

Zhang Xiangjun briefly explained the situation to them, and after they chose the kang bunks and put down their luggage, he led them to the village committee to advance food. However, before that, he asked others to inform the old educated youth living outside to come and meet him later. New comrade.

Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying came to look for He Mi after getting the news. At this time, they knew without thinking that He Mi and the others were cooking at Han Li's house. However, when they entered the house, they saw that familiar figure, who was sitting at the door of the house, leaning against him. On the door frame, there is a lazy look. If this sitting or not sitting look were seen on others, they would definitely complain in their hearts, but this figure makes them feel a kind of lazy beauty.
