As soon as this salt and pepper fish and shrimp was served, it immediately became the most popular delicacy. Everyone ate it with gusto and praised it endlessly.

"Wei Wei, it's the first time I've eaten such delicious fried fish and shrimp when I grow up so big."

"If it is in a state-run restaurant, it will cost one or two dollars a plate."

"..."

Although these educated youths are married, they need to be careful and budget-conscious when they get married. They haven't eaten such oily and salty food for a long time.

There are a lot of fish and shrimps in the small river, because there are few villagers to salvage them. There is no oil and salt in the fish and shrimps, and the taste is very fishy.

There is not enough food to eat, less oil and salt to eat, and no energy to work. In the era of heavy labor, fewer people fish to eat.

Shen Zhiwei was able to have oil, salt, flour, fish and shrimp. Everyone knew that it was sent by Jiang's family, so naturally there would be no surprise. He secretly admired her ability to make the county parents and officials take the initiative to recognize her as a relative.

"Eat more if you like, and bring some back later. I made a lot today."

Shen Zhiwei greeted everyone generously, and enthusiastically served Leicha to the educated youth teammates. Several other educated youth teammates who brought melons and fruits were also busy cutting watermelon for everyone to share.

The scene is warm and lively.

Grandma Jiang and Xu Jun packed some fish and shrimp with salt and pepper and went out to share with the friends who helped catch fish in the afternoon.

After Xiao Gang delivered a few words of farewell on behalf of the production team leader, he asked Jiang Haining to hunt wild boars in the mountains.

Picking a day is worse than hitting the day.

The amount of labor in the field today was not heavy, and the two of them didn't feel too tired.

And in another six days, Jiang Haining's vacation will end and he will return to the team.

Shen Zhiwei packed them two pots of Lei Cha, a bag of pastries and snacks, fish and shrimp with salt and pepper, and pumpkin pancakes, and took them to the mountains for supper.

After Xiao Gang and Jiang Haining left the Educated Youth Academy, the Educated Youth teammates became more at ease, chattering away.

Girls talk about pregnancy and childbirth.

"Meiyuan, how many months has your belly been?"

"It's been three months, and the pregnancy hasn't shown yet, but Rang Weiwei has felt the pulse, and the fetal position is stable."

"Is it a man or a woman?"

"Wei Wei said that he can't figure out the gender, this can only be found out after the birth, no matter what, even if it is a girl, it is still my treasure, my mother-in-law has not thought that the girl is bad recently, she often teases Yuanyuan."

"That's good, you have to take good care of your baby, and be careful at night."

Wang Meiyuan blushed, "Understood, the one in my family is now consciously sleeping on the other side."

Everyone laughed.

Those who are married have thick skins.

"Zhiqing, your stomach is five months old, right?"

"Well, the fetus has been moving recently, and I let Wei Wei take a look at it, it's pretty good."

"Eat well and add some nutrition."

"My mother-in-law cooks two eggs for me every day, and drinks malted milk in the morning and evening, and now I'm not allowed to do any work outside the house." Guan Zhiqing's face was filled with a happy smile.

"Then your mother-in-law is really nice."

"Wen Ling, when are you going to get pregnant? I see you've been married for half a year, so you're not in a hurry."

"The man in my family is not in a hurry. He said that late marriage is advocated now, and he doesn't want to be a father so early."

"Your mother-in-law isn't urging you?"

"My sister-in-law is pregnant again, how can they have time to take care of me."

"No way, your sister-in-law is in her 30s, can she still conceive?"

Cai Wenling said helplessly, "That's not idle."

Every night, the noise next door is bigger than that in the house between her two, it's so embarrassing.

It's a pity that the family is poor and can't live in a separate room.

……

Men's chats are about the future.

"Li Ruizhi, your family said that they will arrange for you to return to the city. Is there any news?"

"No news yet, no letter has come in lately." Li Ruizhi said with a bitter face, "Hey, it's probably a dead end. Last time my elder brother wrote to me and said that the jobs are saturated recently, not just our group. Few people who went to the countryside returned to the city, and many people who went to the countryside last year have not yet been found."

"Sun Jian also retired from his mother's illness and asked him to take up the post. It seems that we can only wait for the opportunity."

"To be honest, we are dragging our families with us now. If we go back to the city, it will be a problem where we live. The wife's work must also be arranged."

Everyone sighed.

……

Zhang Shengli, the captain of the educated youth, poured a bowl of Leicha and spoke impassionedly:

"Students, educated youth teammates, tonight is the farewell party for our educated youth teammate Sun Jian to return to the city. Although we are very reluctant to let him leave our team, he is heading for a better future. Here, we raise our glasses to congratulate him OK?"

"Okay!" Everyone responded loudly, lifted the tea bowls in their hands, touched them lightly, then raised their heads and gulped down.

After finishing a bowl of Lei Cha, Sun Jian filled another bowl, strode towards Shen Zhiwei, looked at her seriously, his eyes couldn't hide his gratitude.

"Student Shen Zhiwei, today I want to solemnly thank you in front of my educated youth teammates.

Thank you for freeing me from that nasty marriage trap.

Thank you for your care and concern for me, when I was most helpless, it was you and Liu Lili who encouraged me and healed my face injury..."

Sun Jian recalled while talking, tears could not help streaming down.

Shen Zhi touched the tea bowl with him with a smile, and blessed, "Sun Jian, I believe it will get better and better in the future. I wish you no troubles in your future life."

"Thank you, and I wish you better and better."

Others also came to respect Shen Zhiwei one after another.

"Weiwei, thank you. You have won honor for our educated youth teammates. Ever since you treated Grandma Jiang, the villagers have all looked up to us."

"Yeah, even my guy doesn't dare to quarrel with me anymore."

"In the future, no one will dare to say that our educated youths are useless. Even the three brothers of the Jiang family will rush to help you with the farm work. Wei Wei, you are really amazing."

"..."

Shen Zhiwei didn't expect that her treatment of the Jiang family would also benefit the educated youth teammates.

"I did this unintentionally." Shen Zhiwei said modestly.

Afterwards, everyone issued farewell wishes to Sun Jian.

At the end of the farewell party, Sun Jian excitedly delivered a farewell speech:

"Educated youth teammates and dear students, thank you for your care and care for me in the past three years when I went to the countryside. We have worked side by side in Tianling Village for three years and two months. There is a mark of our youth left here. There have been joys, there have been sorrows, I will wait for you to come back in Beijing, and then we will be reunited again."

Sun Jian looked at these former classmates, the educated youth teammates who worked hard together and worked day and night, and he was very reluctant to part with him. His voice was full of nostalgia and sadness.

Now that he can return to the city, the future of the others is still unknown, maybe they will stay here forever and become farmers for life.

The moment I became an educated youth, the resident household in the city had been cancelled, and the household registration was also moved here when I went to the countryside. Without a job transfer letter, I could not return to the city to work. Even if I went back to Beijing to visit relatives, I needed a passport and there was a time limit.

Finally, everyone couldn't help but stepped forward to hug Sun Jian and burst into tears.

There are all sorts of emotions in this cry.

Thinking of this farewell, the parties from the north and the south don't know when they will be able to get together again, especially for these married educated youths with their families and children, it is even more difficult to return to the city.

They thought of Sun Jian's bitterness of being plotted against by Zhao Jinfeng, and sympathized with him.

Thinking that I still need to work in this poor country, and I don't know when I will return, I am very sad.

I miss my parents who are far away...

Sun Jian's voice was choked again, encouraging everyone.

"Students, you have to take good care of yourself, take care of your body, and don't give up easily when you encounter difficulties.

Don't give up our youthful dreams easily, even if we are physically exhausted, we should look forward to a better life in the near future..."

Finally, everyone sang loudly together.

"Young Friends Come to Meet"

Everyone sang and sang, tears streaming down their faces...
