Break out of the courtyard

As soon as I heard that I could go back on New Year's Day, all the students in the office who helped me pack tea leaves ran away to share this great news with the classmates who were not present.

After Zhang Heping heard the news, he was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Director, if you send me away, I still have to give this tea gift box. We don't ask for more educated youths from above, we just ask them to give them to junior high school students for us." "

"Listen to you, I will give away these tea gift boxes despite my old face."

"Director, how long will we go back this time?"

"Three months! What the city leaders want is to promote it before the holidays in January and then after school starts in March."

……

In the next two days, Zhang Heping briefly planned the schedule for the next three months, and then wrote a set of official document templates for six secretaries to learn how to write official documents.

Other than that, there is nothing else to arrange.

We held the year-end meeting at the main factory before, and most of the affairs for next year have been arranged. We are just waiting for the production quota for the new year to be released, and then split it into various departments, factories, branch farms, and branches. Finally, consider it on a weekly and monthly basis.

Wednesday, January 1969, 1, was a sunny and sunny day.

Zhang Heping and a group of classmates got into two large trucks. With the director of the knife field and section chief Li waving goodbye, they left the Jingcheng main field and went straight to Simao Airport.

It was Liu Yuan's connections that arranged the flight. Although it could only fly to Yundu, it made many classmates very happy and eliminated many of their prejudices against Liu Yuan.

Coupled with the call for going to the countryside published in the newspaper headlines, just like Zhang Heping's previous analysis, everyone actually has no hostility towards Liu Yuan. She has to go to the countryside anyway, and they just like to criticize her a few words out of habit.

I don’t know if this girl is more attractive after becoming slimmer.

Two large trucks, with four drivers taking turns to drive, arrived at the airport the next morning.

The flight from the airport to Yundu, which originally took three days, was shortened to 3 minutes, not counting the waiting time...

Departing from Yundu Railway Station and arriving at Capital Railway Station, it was already the afternoon of January 1th.

Zhang Heping said hello to Zhang Yong, his second brother-in-law who was selling tickets behind the counter, and then left the Capital Station with a group of classmates dragging sacks and wearing military coats, and took tricycles back to their homes.

……

Zhang Heping returned to the small courtyard of No. 7 Houhai North Bank with large and small bags. He said hello to Lao Zhang who was taking care of his grandson in the house, and put down two sacks containing bananas and pineapples, as well as bullets, silver needles and other items. duffel bag and a tactical backpack that was more than half deflated.

"Last time you called, didn't you say you would have to wait until February before you can get back?" His father, Zhang Bing, didn't get used to it.

"On the 29th of last month, we were notified that we would come back to recruit people to become educated youth in Banna Prefecture. Most of the students wanted to give their families a surprise, so they didn't call their families, hehe!"

As Zhang Heping said this, he took out a rubber sleeve from his luggage bag, asked Lao Zhang to sit on the kang, put it on his calloused stump, and then successfully put it into the prosthetic socket.

"Take a few steps and see if it feels better." Zhang Heping said, picking up his 1 and a half year old nephew Zhang Yi from Lao Zhang, and then thought of his wife Tang Xin and their two children.

Little did he know that he was responsible for a life last year!

"Comfortable!" Lao Zhang affirmed in advance before he stood up. He was very moved, but due to his father's majesty, he didn't say much.

"I made two pairs of rubber covers each for you, Uncle Zhou, and Uncle Tang. If it feels uncomfortable or there are any problems, you have to tell me. I will go back to Banna so that I can make them again for you."

While Zhang Heping was talking, he took out all the rubber covers from his luggage bag and said, "Uncle Zhou and Uncle Tang's rubber covers, please take the time to send them to them and remind them that they cannot be boiled with boiling water and do not put them directly on the soil." On the kang.”

Later, Zhang Heping pointed to the two large branches of green bananas protruding from the sack and said: "The bananas and the pineapples inside are not edible yet. I have to take them to the school to show off to recruit people."

Then, Zhang Heping took a look at the empty kitchen roof, then picked up a sack and fishing tools, and went to Haizi to cut ice and fish outside.

The money of these classmates is used together.

In addition, there is policy support there, and the local villages have supply quotas that require money but not votes; therefore, the fellow villagers are very willing to exchange things with foolish and bold people like Zhang Heping.

Therefore, a group of classmates sent Banna local products home, and Zhang Heping's family also received them many times.

However, the Zhang family now has two in-laws, the Chang family and the Zhou family, as well as the relationship between Director Wang and his colleagues in the subdistrict office to maintain, so there is less to share, and it is a new experience.

Because of lack of meat, the dog Laifu was taken to the countryside by his grandfather Ma Changming.

……

After get off work, Ma Xiuzhen came back on her 28-meter pole and saw smoke coming out of her chimney on the roadside. She was wondering what Lao Zhang was doing in the kitchen, but unexpectedly her son Zhang Heping came back, and then she saw her following Zhang Heping. , asking this and that.

Half an hour later, Zhang Yong, the second brother-in-law, brought back Zhang Pandi, the second sister with a big belly, on his bicycle.

After another half an hour, the eldest brother-in-law Chang Sheng's family of 9 and the eldest cousin-in-law Zhou Chengwen's family of 7 also came over.

The eldest sister Zhang Zhaodi gave birth to a son in May last year, named Chang Le; the eldest cousin Ma Lili also gave birth to a son in June last year, named Zhou Xiaopeng.

Although both families said they had eaten, Zhang Heping still gave them each a bowl of fish soup to drink.

The Chang family and the Zhou family came to inquire about going to the countryside. The third Chang Li, Chang Li, was one year younger than Zhang Heping. Although the fourth Chang Wei, Chang Wei, was only 1 years old, he was also a target of mobilization for going to the countryside.

Zhou Chengwu, the second eldest son of the Zhou family, is 20 years old, and Zhou Chengchen, Zhou's sister, is 18 years old. They were also mobilized to go to the countryside because they could not find a job.

"The essence of this rural-urban migration is to place unemployed graduates. You must understand this." Zhang Heping hugged his half-year-old cousin Zhou Xiaopeng and said patiently:

"After you have this understanding, you will find a big difference when you look at the educated youth who work in rural areas and the educated youth like me who work on farms."

"Educated youths who jump in the queue are just like farmers. They earn work points by working and need to provide their own food. They have more free time. The only advantage is that they can leave the countryside after receiving the recruitment quota."

"But why do production team captains, village chiefs, and township chiefs give recruitment quotas to educated youths instead of their children?"

Zhang Heping looked at Zhou Chengchen, Zhou Chengchen, who was 1 year younger than him on Wednesday, "So, if you guys choose to go to the countryside to join the queue, I suggest you work out your relationship and go to Majiatun. We are all relatives there, so we won't harm our girls."

"Educated youth who join the field are paid 26 yuan! In other words, they are considered employed!" After Zhang Heping returned his nephew to his eldest cousin Ma Lili, he picked up his cousin Zhou Xiaochun, who was almost 2 years old, and looked at him as if he was interested. The thinking crowd laughed and said:

"I am currently the leader of the secretarial team of the main office of Jingcheng Farm. I enjoy the treatment of a level 6 clerk and receive a level 10 salary according to the 24-category area, which is 47 yuan and 5 cents."

Seeing the relatives on both sides moved, Zhang Heping continued: "If there are no special opportunities, such as serving in the military or going to college..."

"I can't take the college entrance examination now!" Chang Laosan Changli interrupted.

Chang's father, Chang Guoxing, looked at his third son, frowned and said displeasedly: "Don't interrupt, just listen to what Brother Heping has to say."

"University is a place to cultivate high-end talents. The country cannot give up on cultivating college students for a long time. If students are not selected through examinations, they will inevitably select talents to go to university in other ways." Zhang Heping extended his right thumb to his cousin Zhou Xiaochun and said with a smile. :

"What I want to say is that if there is no special opportunity to leave the farm, the educated youth may work on the farm for a lifetime. Only after applying for family leave can they go home once."

"Look, what else do you want to ask?"

Sister Zhou Cheng and Chen Xiji asked on Wednesday: "Brother Heping, is the farm in Banna really as good as what is written in the newspaper?"

Zhang Heping said with a smile: "I came back early this time to promote Banna. If I want more young people to become educated youths, I can only pick up the good ones. My advice to you is to either get married as soon as possible or go to the Ma family." Join the queue and don’t go anywhere else.”

Chang's father, Chang Guoxing, frowned and asked, "Heping, can your farm select educated youths?"

"The Educated Youth Affairs Office and the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau have this right, but the farms below do not."

"Brother, besides joining the army and going to college, is there any other way to leave the farm?"

"Specially recruited by the unit, he will join the army after marriage, recover from illness, and return to his hometown to work in farming..."
