Sowing seedlings in spring, weeding and picking vegetables in summer, harvesting crops in the fields in autumn, planing potatoes, cutting millet and sorghum, repairing main water conservancy lines and embankments in winter.

Year after year, every day.

The five educated youths are used to this kind of life, and compared to other educated youths in the team, they are quite satisfied. But at this moment they don't know that there may be a surprise coming one day...

In the office of the production team yard, the old team leader, the deputy team leader Zhang Dabo, and the accountant Xiao Shitou are distributing the prey according to the regulations of previous years.

After changing clothes, Zhang Guoqing returned to the room, bid farewell to them and returned to the team.

The old captain waved his hand, Sit down first, I have something to ask you.

Captain, then I'll leave first. Seeing this, Xiao Shitou hurriedly stood up, Xiao Wu, eat before leaving. Your portion has been calculated, remember to bring it with you.

The old captain smiled and held Xiao Shitou back, What are you going to do? I haven't said anything confidential to this kid. It must be an old rule to give his portion to his parents, right?

Zhang Guoqing gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: Those who know me, the third grandpa.

The old captain with a smile on his face gave him a sideways look, Don't be sloppy. Tell us what's going on outside recently? Why did I hear those educated youths say that classes are going to be suspended outside?

Zhang Guoqing pondered for a while, avoided this question, and asked others, Third Grandpa, how are the educated youths in our village?

They're all good! They're a bit squeamish when they first came here, but they'll try to learn. After all, they're cultural people, they can learn quickly, and they can get along well with the villagers.

Zhang Guoqing smiled. This is the first batch, he can understand.

In addition to them, there will be educated youth coming over in the future. You are a bit prepared for this. What Zhang Guoqing didn't say was that in addition to batches of educated youth, there were also reform-through-labor personnel sent down.

But these times have not come, he is not easy to export.

The old captain frowned. If there are more people, the rations will be less. To be honest, he really doesn't want to come to outsiders, but the policy is down, there is no way.

Putting aside this unknown matter, he asked again, Schools are really closed outside?

Zhang Guoqing shook his head, This matter will not be clear for a while, but we ordinary people still have to learn some knowledge. Let's not talk about whether to take the entrance examination for technical secondary schools and universities. Once recruited in the city, educated people always have an advantage.

The old captain gave him an annoyed look. This kid hides half of his words and reveals half of his words. He really learned badly.

Third Grandpa, I work in the army, and I don't know much about local affairs. But my Ping'an family has only studied for half a day now, and we should be here soon.

The old captain looked at him when he heard the words, then at Uncle Zhang who was bewildered and Shitou Xiao who was thinking, with a smile in his eyes.

Little Five...

As soon as the ah came out of the old captain's mouth, Zhang Guoqing's scalp went numb. Every time there is such a tone, it must be something bad.

...Did you see your nephews and grandnephews just now?

Zhang Guoqing nodded embarrassingly, he seemed to be a senior in the clan.

Nowadays, it is estimated that if there is a half-day class in the school, at least a large number of people in our village will not let their children go to school. If these children don't go to school, it will be so delayed for a lifetime...

Originally we are far away from the school in the village, and I have been suppressing it all the time. Finally, the children in the village don't have to be blind. In the future, if there is a job recruitment in the city, we can give the children a chance...

I haven't had a good night's sleep for the past few nights since I heard from those educated youths that classes are suspended outside. It's hard to fill everyone's stomachs, but what will these half-children do next?

The more the old captain talked, the more disappointed he looked. It was his oath to the previous old village head to lead the clan to live a good life and let the children of the clan stand out.

But now, it's difficult...

Zhang Guoqing was startled when he heard the words, and glanced at him complicatedly.

Didn't you just ask those five educated youths? They are all high school students. The old captain looked at the other two in the room hesitantly, I think our team will run a school.

Uncle Zhang was so frightened by his grand wish that his pipe dropped to the ground, but he didn't know it. Is it that easy to run a school? This is not a player's house.

Xiao Shitou immediately looked at Zhang Guoqing. He more or less guessed some of the old captain's thoughts. With a school, in addition to the children going to school at the door of the house, the extra time spent on the road can also help the family with work.

Actually, I don't ask too much, elementary school is fine. It's a good seedling to be admitted to junior high school on their own, and when they grow up, they don't have to worry about going back and forth.

Zhang Guoqing pointed it out, What do you say in the village?

Except for the promise to send a principal, the commune has no funds to allocate. I don't worry about the money. There are still some in the team. In the villages such as tables and chairs, you can go up the mountain and cut trees by yourself. For the place, first occupy the ancestral hall, and then several teams next door Send the children over, we will plan when there are more people...

Zhang Guoqing knew that he was going to talk about the key points next. But everything is ready, what else do you need?

...I had already planned to go to the village to apply after the busy farming season, but this will... Would it be suitable for you to see?

Having said so much foreshadowing, after all, it turns out that this is the problem. Zhang Guoqing was quite in a dilemma. Judging from the current situation, it may be delayed for a few more years, but for those families who tighten their belts to raise their children, the sooner the better. After all, there are family members in the village who can't go anywhere in chaos.

What? It's hard to say.

Zhang Guoqing smiled, Anyway, the autumn harvest is not very big, let's take a look first. You can't rush this matter for a while. Third Grandpa, if you really can't make up your mind, let everyone hold a meeting to give their opinions later. It's not a matter The next generation of children and grandchildren, they all know not to be sloppy.

The old captain understood what he said, and he nodded wordlessly.

Zhang Guoqing, who left, bid farewell to his parents and drove directly to the provincial capital without passing through the county seat.

Things in his hometown have been properly arranged. It can be said that even the fruit trees in his backyard have been arranged in place. He who should have nothing to do is very heavy in his heart.

For the old captain, for the unknown future...

There are not many four-wheel vehicles on the avenue, and the road is smooth. Unlike driving in winter, this time the speed is not fast, but it is less than two hours to reach the provincial capital.

Zhang Guoqing saw that he had plenty of time to return to the team, so he was not in a hurry to go to the military area to gossip and fart, and turned the steering wheel to the provincial capital - there is also a big nephew there.

I don't know if it's because he has been away from the campus for too long, or the learning atmosphere is different in different places. Groups of students on campus hold newspapers and make comments.

It seems that the louder the voice, the more truth. The tone was fierce and the wording was strong, and the sweltering heat of summer added a lot of anger to many young people here.

It made Zhang Guoqing feel a headache.

Now that the fuse has been lit, the next step is to see how dangerous it will be after the explosion.

Fortunately, when he found Xizi (Zhang Mingyuan), this guy knew to stay in the dormitory and read, otherwise he would have to pack the child and drag him back.
