The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

It's another drama of fighting for power.

Zhu Xiaomin had a headache, but since she was already here, she might as well make the best of it. Since she was here, she could only take it one step at a time.

After washing away the dust along the way, he asked about the situation in the compound.

He Lanfang did not hide anything and told her everything she knew.

After a short rest, at around two o'clock, the two came out of the dormitory and went to the office building again.

It was working time and people came out from several dormitories. Seeing the new faces, they looked at them curiously. Some even whispered questions to He Lanfang, as if Zhu Xiaomin couldn't hear them.

Zhu Xiaomin had no choice but to introduce herself: "My name is Zhu Xiaomin, I am an educated youth who went to the countryside. I just returned to the city to work. Please take care of me in the future."

The educated youth who returned to the city?

Everyone looked at her, and then asked again, "You went to the government office right after you came back? What does your family do?"

Why do you think it's because of family connections?

Zhu Xiaomin had no choice but to say, "My home is not in Pingcheng."

He Lanfang introduced: "Comrade Zhu Xiaomin was specially transferred up by the administrative office because of his outstanding performance in grassroots work."

That's it!

Everyone looked at them with surprise and envy.

We all work in the administrative office compound, but it's not easy to get noticed by the superiors, let alone someone who is transferred up from the village by name.

After chatting and looking at each other along the way, Zhu Xiaomin and He Lanfang finally entered the office courtyard, entered the east building and went directly to the second floor.

There is a conference room on the second floor that is as big as two offices. At this time, there are already more than a dozen people waiting inside.

When they saw Zhu Xiaomin coming in, they all applauded enthusiastically. Yang Haozhong came over to greet her and let her go to the top of the table. There stood a middle-aged man wearing a Mao suit and looking slightly overweight. He extended his hand to shake her hand: "Comrade Zhu Xiaomin, welcome, welcome."

Yang Haozhong introduced: "This is the director of our office, Pei Wenyuan, Director Pei."

"Hello, Director Pei!" Zhu Xiaomin shook hands.

Pei Wenyuan gestured to the seat next to him for her to sit down, and then gestured to everyone else.

Zhu Xiaomin bowed slightly to everyone, and when she saw that everyone was sitting down, she sat down too.

Yang Haozhong sat on the other side of Pei Wenyuan and spoke first, talking about Zhu Xiaomin's achievements in the village, and then handed the microphone to Pei Wenyuan.

Pei Wenyuan took it and said with a smile: "At that time, we first heard Comrade Xiaomin's name from the Hengyin County Education Bureau. Did you know that there are a total of 35 educated youths in the Cijiaokou Commune of Hengyin County, 31 of whom are junior high school graduates. They all took the county's high school graduation examination this year, and all of them passed the line, and all ranked within the top 50."

In other words, Hengyin County suddenly had 31 more high school students, all of whom were high-ranking students.

The college entrance examination has been suspended for nine years, and even high school admissions have only been resumed in recent years. High school students basically have the highest level of academic qualifications.

All of a sudden, there was a burst of discussion in the conference room, but most people didn't understand what the educated youth at this educated youth point taking the high school graduation exam had to do with Zhu Xiaomin.

Pei Wenyuan said: "The most surprising thing is that it was said that it was Comrade Zhu Xiaomin who suggested that the educated youth take the high school graduation exam, and the 31 junior high school graduates were taught high school courses by four other high school students, one of whom was Comrade Zhu Xiaomin."

At this moment, everyone was no longer whispering, but burst into laughter. Some were surprised, some were unbelieving, and all looked at Zhu Xiaomin.

He wanted to claim credit for Luo Tingyuan's work again.

Zhu Xiaomin was a little embarrassed and could only say: "Rural life is monotonous and boring. Originally, I wanted to give everyone more variety in their lives after production labor, so I found high school courses for them to learn. The current results are all due to their own efforts."

Yang Haozhong smiled: "Comrade Xiaomin, there is no need to be modest."

Pei Wenyuan nodded and said, "We originally thought that this was an educational genius. It just so happened that the counties were suffering from a serious loss of teachers, so it would be a good idea to invite him back to be a teacher. So we did a little research, and what we found was incredible."

At this time, some of the educated youth had family background issues, and they had to be investigated if they were to become teachers.

When everyone heard this, their eyes turned to Zhu Xiaomin again.

Pei Wenyuan continued, "Only after checking did we know that Comrade Zhu Xiaomin did more than that in the village. Under her suggestion, their commune planted fruit trees and their brigade built a breeding base. In just two years, their production team's production has made a big step forward. At the same time, they also set up a rural primary school, so that more than 30 children can go to school."

Zhu Xiaomin said helplessly: "This is also the result of everyone's concerted efforts."

A middle-aged man in his fifties sitting below Yang Haozhong nodded repeatedly: "It is important for everyone to work together to produce, but the leader must not only have a long-term vision, but also have appeal."

Yang Haozhong introduced: "This is Director Zheng of the Agriculture Bureau."

This is the person He Lanfang mentioned.

Zhu Xiaomin bowed her head slightly and said, "Director Zheng."

Pei Wenyuan laughed: "Director Zheng, you must make use of such a good talent."

Zheng Jianye nodded repeatedly: "Of course, of course." He then asked Zhu Xiaomin, "As far as I know, your first team's breeding base is a city project?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded. "When I first proposed this idea, the team was too poor to even raise the money for the base's infrastructure, not to mention the funds for buying lambs and chickens, so it was not approved. Later, the city happened to have a project to support the breeding industry. A comrade who worked in the city at the time helped us apply for it and supported 200 lambs. The team also borrowed some money from the commune, and only then was the base barely built."

Political reasons cannot be mentioned, but the economic situation must be made clear. Money will be needed for the development of any place in the future.

Pei Wenyuan nodded: "I know about this project in the city, but initially they preferred the villages around the city, but they didn't know they would choose our county later." He asked Zhu Xiaomin, "Who was the comrade who helped to contact him? Are you still in touch?"

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "His name is Lu Mingzheng. He was also an educated youth who went to the countryside from where we are. He returned to the city three years ago and worked in the city's X unit for more than two years. He joined the army at the beginning of this year. We...were married before the New Year. He is my lover."

After these words were spoken, the meeting room fell silent.

This relationship sounds like an attempt to abuse power for personal gain.

Pei Wenyuan was also startled. He looked at her carefully and asked to confirm, "Did Comrade Lu Mingzheng help run that project for you?"

Zhu Xiaomin shook her head: "He had already returned to the city at that time. He was on official business in the village. I occasionally heard the branch secretary talk about this plan, which happened to coincide with the market project. I thought it was feasible, so I lent a hand." After pausing, she continued, "We... also gradually built up feelings and walked together during this work."

The relationship between her and Lu Mingzheng could be known with just a casual search. It was impossible to hide it and there was no need to hide it. If she said it out loud herself, she would be more frank and could give a direct explanation, which was better than letting others make all kinds of guesses and accuse her without asking her, leaving her speechless.
