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

Lu Haigen had heard from Zhu Xiaomin that the base covered a large area, but he was still a little surprised when he saw the area surrounded by walls in the distance.

This is too big.

Gu Mancang heard his exclamation and said with a smile: "This saline-alkali land was barren in previous years because nothing could be grown there. Since they wanted to build a base, they simply expanded it a little more. Later, the expansion was also carried out in this area."

Yan Yimin looked and saw that there were more sheepfolds and chicken coops than when he came here at the beginning of the year. He asked, "Has this been expanded?"

Gu Mancang nodded repeatedly, his brows full of joy: "In just over a month, the lambs will be born, and the new sheepfold is for them."

As they were talking, they had already walked to the sheepfold of the pregnant ewes. Xing Qingsheng and others who were mixing feed there also greeted them and smiled at Zhu Xiaomin.

Lü Haigen saw this and asked with a smile, "It seems like they are all educated youth?"

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and nodded, then introduced everyone to them.

Lü Haigen was very interested. He looked at the entire base carefully and asked again and again about the details of its initial construction. Finally, he nodded slightly and said, "No wonder Xiao Zhu said that not all brigades can follow suit."

There is a lot of room for expansion here, but other brigades will most likely have to occupy farmland.

After visiting the entire base, it was already late, so we decided to visit the orchard the next day. We then went back to the brigade headquarters to visit the canning workshop.

Seeing the bottle-sealing machine, Lü Haigen nodded and said, "This is a considerable investment in the village. Although you have the educated youth who came up with the idea, it also depends on Secretary Gu's courage."

Gu Mancang was very excited by what he said, rubbing his hands and laughing: "Xiaomin's idea is still the best, and Lu Zhiqing also helped a lot."

Lü Haigen turned around to look at Zhu Xiaomin and said with a smile, "I'd like to see what eye-catching plans you can come up with for other teams in the future."

Gu Mancang was surprised: "Other teams?"

Lü Haigen nodded: "Our bureau has assigned this part of the work at the entrance to the porcelain cellar to Zhu Xiaomin."

Gu Mancang was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy and he nodded repeatedly: "That's great."

As the saying goes, it's easier to get things done if you have someone in the government. Now that Zhu Xiaomin has taken over the work here, it will be easier for them to develop.

Xie Chengzhi, Chen Danqing and others were also extremely happy and looked towards Zhu Xiaomin frequently.

Since she is in charge of the work here, she can come back often.

The brigade prepared a reception dinner, and Xie Chengzhi and Chen Danqing stayed to join the party. Lu Haigen also specially asked Gu Mancang to call Chen Xudong.

After dinner, Zhu Xiaomin accompanied a few people to the arranged room. Lu Haigen, Fan Yanqing, Yan Yimin and the driver shared one room.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Zhu Xiaomin said to Lü Haigen and the others, "I will stay at the educated youth camp and come over early tomorrow morning."

Lü Haigen joked: "Why don't you invite us to visit the educated youth site?"

"Of course." Zhu Xiaomin smiled, "It's just a little late now, and the elementary school has already finished school. Let's go to the educated youth site tomorrow and then go up the mountain."

Lu Haigen also knew about the establishment of a primary school and nodded repeatedly.

Finally, the two people were arranged and handed over to the people in the brigade headquarters for reception. Zhu Xiaomin followed Xie Chengzhi, Chen Danqing and others back to the educated youth site. Her steps were brisk and she was indescribably anxious along the way.

After they went down the slope, Xie Chengzhi stopped her and whispered, "You're back just in time. I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Zhu Xiaomin was surprised.

Xie Chengzhi said: "Last week, the commune assigned us a quota for returning to the city. We have been discussing it for several days and don't know who to give it to."

"Recruitment targets?" Zhu Xiaomin asked.

Xie Chengzhi nodded: "Well, the secretary means that we should decide for ourselves, provided that it is limited to the scope of old educated youth."

In other words, the fourteen new educated youth who arrived this year are not qualified.

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "Who wants it?"

Xie Chengzhi smiled bitterly: "Who doesn't want to go back to the city? Not to mention them, I am also tempted, but..."

"It's just that you can't bear to part with poetry and prose." Zhu Xiaomin said with a chuckle.

Of course, Miao Shiwen would also consider his reasons.

The number of college students was then, and it is still this time!

Xie Chengzhi sighed and whispered, "But it's not easy to get two at once, in the same place."

Zhu Xiaomin probed: "Do you have to go back with Shiwen?"

Xie Chengzhi looked at her helplessly: "You and Mingzheng are examples, one left and the other stayed. Now you finally returned to the city, and he went to the army again. It's hard to see each other. But Mingzheng has no choice, and I am different. I still hope to return to the city together. If it's really not possible..."

If there is really no other choice, he can only stay here. Fortunately, the development here gives him hope.

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Don't worry, there will definitely be a chance."

The college entrance examination will be resumed in two years, and that will be their best chance.

Xie Chengzhi didn't have that much confidence, so he just nodded and sighed.

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "Are you planning to get married?"

Xie Chengzhi looked at her, and there was suddenly a hint of joy in his eyes. He whispered, "Let Shiwen talk to you."

Is this planned?

Zhu Xiaomin was delighted: "You really have a plan. Tell me earlier. It will be convenient for me to prepare many things in the city."

Xie Chengzhi agreed with a smile.

Chen Xudong and Chen Danqing followed behind and smiled at each other as they listened.

Not counting Nie Yifei and Shi Meijun's, this is the second time their educated youth camp has held a wedding.

As they were talking, several people had already passed through the woods and went up the hillside from the other side. As soon as they appeared from the bottom of the hill, they heard cheers at the gate of the educated youth center. More than a dozen people rushed out, all happily surrounding Zhu Xiaomin and greeting her.

Before Zhu Xiaomin could answer, Luo Ye's small figure rushed out, hugged her waist, and shouted happily: "Sister Xiaomin, Sister Xiaomin, Sister Xiaomin..."

Zhu Xiaomin staggered when he pounced on her, and took a step back to steady herself. She rubbed his head and asked with a smile, "Xiao Luoye, how are you? Did you miss me?"

"Of course, of course!" Luo Ye nodded, feeling her hands rubbing his head. He squinted his eyes in enjoyment and rubbed his head against her hands.

In the past, she would always grab him and rub his head, which always made him annoyed. But as soon as she left, he actually missed her way of expressing her love.

Zhu Xiaomin let him hold her for a while before pulling her down from her waist and holding his little hand as she walked towards the door.

Luo Tingyuan stood at the gate, watching her walking towards him in the afterglow of the setting sun, with an unconcealable brilliance in his eyes.

"Teacher Luo." Zhu Xiaomin stopped in front of him and took a quick look. She saw that although the man was still as thin as ever, he seemed to be more stable. Even his brows were more relaxed. He looked as tall and majestic as a pavilion or a mountain.

Luo Tingyuan nodded slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment. He opened his mouth and said calmly, "You... are back."
