Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

The next day, Yu Jiang took He Zhile to the mountain as promised.

When I came back, the two large backpacks were stuffed to the brim.

"Sure enough, it feels great to move things home!" He Zhile was more energetic than yesterday when he went down the mountain.

Yu Jiang suddenly felt that it would be nice to have a sister together.

In the past, because He Zhile was a friend of the original owner, Yu Jiang treated He Zhile like a good sister, whether to avoid revealing her fault or to repay He Zhile's kindness to her.

But after getting along with her, Yu Jiang found that this girl really liked her.

Isn't this exactly the same as the hamster's habit of hoarding things?

Although Yu Jiang had stocked up on supplies partly because of her hobbies, and partly because she needed to prepare various things to face the enemies that would come at any time alone.

But now, when two girls who both like to hoard stay together, they will not take their backpacks down the mountain until they are full every day.

If there weren't two mothers watching down the mountain, they would all want to live on the mountain!

That day when Yu Jiang came home as usual, he saw Father Yu who was about to go out.

"Dad, are you going to the county again?"

Father Yu has become accustomed to his daughter being a crazy girl who loves to run to the mountains.

Forget it, my daughter is just hanging around in the periphery anyway, so nothing should happen to her.

"No! The new educated youth will arrive today. I'll go get ready."

Yu Jiang was not surprised when he heard this. He had said before that the new educated youth would come back during this time.

I just hope that there won’t be another Li Lili or Jason, and that it would be best if they could stay honest and avoid causing trouble.

But if there was really some trouble on her head, she wouldn't mind making these people unable to do anything in the future.

This group of new educated youths arrived in the village in the afternoon.

Usually at this time, Yu Jiang would go to the mountains. Even if the new educated youth came, Yu Jiang didn't want to join in the fun.

But she couldn't stand the fact that there was He Zhile, who was fond of gossip, by her side. As soon as this girl heard that someone was coming into the village, she dragged her to the Educated Youth Home.

Hurrying slowly, I finally arrived at the Educated Youth Courtyard before people entered the village. At this time, the aunties gathered around to watch the fun were already chatting in twos and threes.

The arrival of new educated youths is a big event in the village. In addition, the autumn harvest will be in a few days, so there is not much work these days. No, even the aunt from the west end of the village came over to watch the fun.

He Zhile took Yu Jiang's face and squeezed directly to Father Yu in the front, occupying the best viewing spot.

After a while, Lao Zhangtou drove an ox cart toward them with a cart of luggage and three young women, followed by three young men.

Among the female educated youths in the car, one was wearing heavily patched clothes and looked like she might as well have gone to the countryside. The other was wearing clothes that looked like they belonged to a big city, and her own temperament was different from the other two. The last one was wearing Between the two of them, at first glance, she looks like the kind of dress a city girl with several children at home would wear. Not bad, but not good either.

Except for the last girl, who had a look of disgust and reluctance, the other two looked uncertain, as if they had calmly accepted the fact that they were going to the countryside.

Two of the three boys seemed to know each other very well and kept talking behind them.

The most eye-catching thing is the last boy. This boy is obviously much shorter than the other two and does not look like he has graduated from high school.

After getting closer, a small face became even more exquisite and outrageous, making the three female educated youths on the bullock cart pale in comparison.

The group arrived at the gate of the Educated Youth Institute. Father Yu, the secretary and several squad leaders introduced themselves. Then the old educated youth also introduced themselves and welcomed the arrival of the new educated youth.

The newly arrived educated youth also greeted everyone very politely and introduced themselves. Even the seemingly youngest educated youth from Lu Nanchi Road greeted everyone obediently.

Except for Jiang Miao, Jiang Zhiqing, who has always had a bad face from the beginning, and Wang Xiaoya, who looks reluctant.

Of course, no one cares about them.

Father Yu simply explained a few words, and seeing that they were obviously very tired, he didn't stay much. He asked the old educated youth to take the new educated youth to familiarize themselves with the environment, and then left with the secretary and several team captains.

The surrounding villagers also left in twos and threes after the educated youths entered the yard and closed the door.

He Zhile still couldn't forget the good-looking little educated youth and chatted endlessly along the way.

In the evening, Yu's mother made braised pork and white-flour steamed buns, and asked Yu Jiang to deliver them to the Educated Youth Institute together. This was considered a celebration of the new educated youths from their brigade.

Originally, Yu's mother wanted to make noodles, but she thought it would be inconvenient to carry the watery soup, so she steamed steamed buns for them.

Zhang Tong came to open the door and welcomed him into the yard. Zhang Tong asked in a low voice: "Auntie, why are you here?"

"This is not a new educated youth. Your uncle asked us to cook two dishes and bring them over for everyone to try."

As she spoke, Mother Yu pointed to the food in her and Yu Jiang's hands, and then said to Zhang Tong: "You don't have to be so careful. If you have any trouble or encounter anything, just come to me. If it doesn't work, you will still be there." Uncle Yu is here. As a captain, his words still carry some weight in the village.

When your parents tried to get you to go to the countryside, wasn't it because we were here and could we still take care of you?

Fortunately for you, you haven't even run home once in the more than half a year since you've been here! "

Zhang Tong scratched his head in embarrassment: "Isn't it nothing?"

Then, as if he was afraid that Yu's mother would continue to talk, he took Yu's mother into the Educated Youth Yard.

Mother Yu knew that the child didn't want to trouble them, so she didn't say anything. At worst, she could just let Yu Jiang run around here more, and he would be taken care of.

Yu Jiang also knew this Zhang Zhiqing. He was the child of his parents' college classmate.

The four of them are all students of Q University. Father Yu majored in physics, mother Yu majored in fashion design, and father Zhang and mother Zhang majored in chemistry and history respectively.

When they were in college, Father Yu and Father Zhang were both top students who were loved by professors as if they were babies. They shared a dormitory, and their relationship was as good as brothers.

Mother Yu and Mother Zhang are also famous figures in the school.

It's just that not long after Yu's father graduated, he was called back by Grandpa Yu to take over the team captain's job, while Zhang's father and Zhang's mother both stayed at the university to teach.

Later, Zhang's father was maliciously reported by a student and went to the northwest countryside with Zhang's mother. Zhang Tong was originally going to follow him, but before leaving, Zhang's father found many connections and got his only son Zhang Tong to come. Being an educated youth in my classmate's village was considered a refuge.

Zhang Tong led the two of them to the main room of the Educated Youth Institute, where everyone was preparing to have dinner.

But the food was not rich. After all, the new educated youth had just arrived and had not received food yet. What we eat now are the surplus grains of the old educated youths.

The autumn harvest is coming soon, and no one has much food left at this time, let alone these educated youths!

As expected, the braised pork and white flour steamed buns made by Yu Mu were welcomed by everyone.

Mother Yu asked the new educated youths to remember to go to the brigade to collect their grain tomorrow, and reminded them that the autumn harvest was coming soon. The production team had a lot of work and heavy tasks, so everyone should be prepared.

Finally, as the captain's wife, I comforted everyone that since they are here, they should work hard and let them not be bullied. She also said that if you have any questions, just go to the team leader. If the team leader is not here, you can just go to her.

Throughout the whole process, Yu Jiang acted as a backdrop.

Sure enough, her mother was really powerful. With just a few words, she gained the new educated youth's favorable impression of her, Father Yu, and even the village.

We must know that the integration of new educated youth into rural areas has always been a big headache.

What Yu Mu did was a good start for the future.
