Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

Yan Bugui thought about it and felt that what Yan Jiekuang said made sense, so he didn't say anything more. After giving Yan Jiekuang a few words, Yan Bugui left Yan Jiekuang's room. After lunch, Yan Jiekuang took his things and went out. However, Yan Jiekuang did not go to the post office where Xu Damao's wife worked, but went to a post office that was a little further away. Yan Jiekuang not only sent out the things Yan Bugui prepared for him, but also sent over two iron pots, one large and one small, that he bought from the Pigeon Market.

After leaving the post office, Yan Jiekuang found a deserted place, took out a backpack from his space, and went to the department store again. He used up all the local coupons except the national food coupons and industrial coupons. Because he had too many coupons, Yan Jiekuang went to several places before he used up all the coupons.

When Yan Jiekuang got home, he saw Auntie busy in the kitchen. After parking his bicycle, he walked into the kitchen and asked, "Mom! Is there anything I can do?!"

The third aunt replied, "You don't have to work. Go back to your room and have a rest. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."

Yan Jiekuang saw the things on the table behind the third aunt and asked, "Mom, what day is today? Why did you prepare so many dishes?!"

The third aunt said, "You and your second brother are both leaving. Although your second brother is near Sijiu City, he is still leaving. Your father said that our family will have a reunion dinner together tonight. I don't know when we will have the next reunion dinner."

"Mom, you're busy! I'll go buy a roast duck." After saying that, Yan Jiekuang turned and left the kitchen, pushing his bicycle and ran out the door. ...

On the third day after receiving the notice, Yan Jiefang went to the subdistrict office to collect the subsidy in the morning, and in the afternoon Yan Bugui and his wife sent Yan Jiefang on a truck that was specially used to send educated youth to the rural areas around Sijiucheng. Then Yan Bugui rode his bicycle with his wife to Zuojiazhuang.

After Yan Jiefang was settled, Yan Bugui and the third aunt went to the third aunt's parents' home. Anyway, Yan Bugui and his wife did not return until after eight o'clock in the evening.

On the third day after Yan Jiefang left, Yan Bugui and his wife, along with Yan Jiedi and Yan Xuehong, sent Yan Jiekuang to the train station. On the platform, Yan Jiekuang found the person in charge of registration and handed over the notice. The person in charge of registration took the notice, looked at it, and then found Yan Jiekuang's name on the roster. He made a check mark on the back, handed the ticket and notice to Yan Jiekuang, and reminded him: "Don't lose the notice. Submit the notice to your local educated youth office when you arrive. They will use the notice to help you with your household registration and grain and oil relations. If you lose it, you will become an illegal resident. It will be very troublesome at that time."

"Thank you, comrade!" Yan Jiekuang took the notice and train ticket and put them in his bag.

"Jie Kuang!" Just then Yan Jie Cheng came over. Yan Jie Kuang asked in surprise: "Brother, why are you here?!"

Yan Jiecheng said, "Don't say your brother treats you badly. I specially switched shifts with my colleagues today to run this train." Then he asked, "Which car are you in?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "Seat 8 in carriage 15, by the window."

Yan Jiefang said, "This train is full of you educated youth. There are no sleeper cars except for our conductor's car. Wait a minute, you can leave your things with me. I will bring them to you when it's time to eat. So don't run around."

"Got it! Thank you, big brother." Yan Jiekuang replied with a smile, looked at Yan Bugui and his wife, and said, "Don't worry now!"

Yan Bugui replied: "I'm relieved! But you still have to send a telegram back to let us know you're safe when you get there."

"Okay!" Yan Jiekuang readily agreed and said, "Dad, when you have time, go to the scrap recycling station and see if there are any middle school and high school books. The most important thing is the set of "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry". I can take a look there when I have nothing to do."

Yan Bugui replied: "I've made note of this. I'll send it to you when I find the book."

"Thank you, Dad!" Yan Jiekuang responded with a smile. In fact, there is no shortage of books in Yan Jiekuang's space, but in order to pass the Ming Road, some things have to be done. Don't underestimate the people of this era. The people of this era are much more vigilant than modern people. If something that has not passed the Ming Road appears once or twice, others will not suspect anything, but if it appears more often. Others will be suspicious. Wait for Yan Jiecheng to pass the Ming Road among the educated youth. Then in the future, when Yan Jiekuang takes out some things, he can push the matter onto Yan Jiecheng, which can also save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Yan Jiekuang chatted with his family on the platform for a while, and at the urging of Yan Jiecheng, he took his things and got on the train. About a quarter of an hour later, the train whistle sounded. Slowly! Slowly! The train began to leave the train station. The originally lively carriage suddenly became quiet. About two or three minutes later, faint crying sounds were heard in the carriage. Sitting next to Yan Jiekuang was a man wearing glasses, and sitting opposite him were two female comrades. One of the female comrades sitting by the window said, "Hello everyone! My name is Su Zihui, and I am going to Shengli Commune, Dami County, Heilongjiang Province as an educated youth."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Comrade Su Zihui, nice to meet you. My name is Yan Jiekuang, and like you, I went to Shengli Commune in Dami County, Heilongjiang Province as an educated youth."

As Yan Jiekuang finished speaking, the people around him began to introduce themselves one by one. Yan Jiekuang did not expect that starting from the seat opposite him, all the way to the seven or eight rows behind him were going to the same place. After the introductions, no one knew who started singing first, and it soon turned into a chorus.

After singing for a while, they probably got tired. The singing slowly stopped. After a while, some people started to take out dry food to eat. Zhou Kang, who was sitting next to Yan Jiekuang, also took out his dry food, and the two female comrades sitting opposite Yan Jiekuang also took out food. Su Zihui saw that Yan Jiekuang did not move, and asked: "Comrade Yan Jiekuang, didn't you bring any food?!"

Yan Jiekuang smiled and replied, "My brother will bring it to me in a while."

Xie Chunyan, who was standing next to Su Zihui, asked, "Is your brother on this train too?! Is he also an educated youth?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "My eldest brother is the conductor of this train."

Speak of the devil and he will appear. Before Yan Jiekuang could finish his words, Yan Jiecheng came over with a lunch box and said, "There's not much to eat in the dining car today. You'll have to make do with this for now."

Yan Jiekuang took the lunch box and replied with a smile: "Brother, it's good to have a hot bite. I'm not picky about food."

"I know you're not picky about food. Leave the lunch box there after you finish eating. I'll take it away when I bring you dinner in the evening. Also, don't forget to close the window before dark. Don't put things near the window. Otherwise, if your things are taken away, don't blame me for not reminding you." After saying that, Yan Jiecheng turned and left.

Xie Chunyan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Comrade Yan Jiekuang, what did your brother just say?!"

Su Zihui had already reacted by now and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Just put your things away."

Yan Jiekuang smiled, opened the lunch box, and took a look at the dishes inside. Although there was no meat, the amount of vegetables was sufficient and the appearance was not bad. Yan Jiekuang took out a spoon from his bag and started to eat slowly.
