Finally, it was the only boy.
"Village leader, my name is Chen Jianguo. We all responded to the call to go to the countryside to support rural construction. I hope that under your leadership, our village can move to a higher level."
Everyone likes to hear good words, and Liu Weimin is the same. Especially this Chen Jianguo is quite generous and not annoying. He nodded,
"Okay, okay. Let me tell you about the situation in our village.
Just now in the commune, you also saw that there was little rain this year, and our village's harvest was also very poor.
Alas, you came at the wrong time. If it was a normal year, I could still say that if I work hard, I can get food by the end of the year and have a few full meals.
This year, after paying the public grain, in fact, there is no surplus grain in the village. Not to mention you, even How will the villagers survive the winter and how can they make it to next spring? We have no idea. "
Several educated youths were not surprised when they heard this. Chen Jianguo was the fastest to answer,
"Village chief, to be honest, the situation in the city is even worse. My eldest brother works in a factory and is also supplied with food every month.
However, the amount supplied every month is also very, very small, not even one-fifth of the previous amount. Many families rely on relatives in the countryside for support.
It was because of this that my parents cruelly let me go to the countryside, saying that no matter how bad the countryside is, even a handful of grass can be boiled into a pot of soup.
It's better than waiting to die in the city.
If I really can't make it, that's my fate. "
He simply glanced sideways and thought clearly.
Cheerful Li Yan,
"Village chief, this situation is everywhere now, we all understand."
Quiet Lin Zhaodi,
"Yes, my family has no food, and my brother has started to drink porridge."
Several other people said at the same time,???
Li Yan asked directly,
"Didn't your brother drink porridge before?"
Lin Zhaodi said as if it was a matter of course,
"Yes, my brother used to eat rice. Three people in my family have jobs, and this year's food shortage, so my mother asked me to give the job to my brother and come to the countryside.
My mother said that there is food everywhere in the countryside, and you won't starve to death if you work hard."
Everyone in the car was silent.
Jiandan was also a little surprised. To be honest, it's not uncommon to see mama's girl Voldemort, but how can this one be so happy?
The shadow of Liujiatun in the distance came into sight. Liu Weimin coughed a few times.
"Well, I'll find a place for you to live in a while. First, pack up and rest for three days like the villagers to get familiar with the village environment, and then go to work.
By the way, Xiao Jian is the educated youth who came here before you. If you have any questions, just ask her more."
Helplessly, Jian Jian could only say hello.
"My name is Jian Jian. I came here a few months earlier than you."
The three people were surprised and looked at each other. No one thought that this was an educated youth.
Seeing how casually and intimately she talked to the village chief and the driver, they all thought she was a relative, or at least a villager. They never thought that she would be an educated youth like them.
After entering the village, Jian Jian got off the car and picked up the backpack.
"Third Master, Uncle Village Chief, I'm going back first. If there is anything, let the children come to me."
He nodded to a few educated youths and went home with the backpack on his back.
Several educated youths had just come out of their identities and were faced with a second mystery. However, they looked at each other with avocados and did not dare to speak easily.
The ox cart slowly entered the village and stopped at the door of the big blue brick and tile house in the village.
Since knowing that there would be educated youths coming, Liu Weimin asked someone to clean up the house. Now he still felt a little sorry why Jian Jian didn't live in the ready-made house and spent money to repair the small broken house. Didn't he see the surprise in the eyes of these educated youths?
He led a few people into the yard,
"This was the yard of the landlord a few years ago. Now it is used as a place for educated youths to live.
We are all adults. What can and cannot be done, I don't need to say more, right?
I have two requirements: work hard and don't cause trouble.
These rooms are all livable and cleaned up. You can divide them up.
If you have any questions, you can ask Xiao Jian, or come to me directly. My house is in front. You can ask around in the village."
This accommodation environment surprised the three people. Even at home, there is no such condition.
Seeing the village chief was leaving, Li Yan remembered, "Village chief, the Youth Office said that our Youth subsidies can be exchanged for food in the village, you see..." Liu Weimin sighed and calculated in his mind, "You all have seen the current situation. This year's grain harvest is almost complete. The village can only give you 50 kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes." After saying this, he felt distressed, "I am also responding to the policy, considering that it is not easy for you to leave home. Even this is very tense. The villagers can't share so much. You have to save food. Maybe you have to hold on until next spring." Several people were in high spirits, so they didn't think so much. They carried their luggage to find the room they liked and started packing. Jiandan didn't care so much. It was very hot in this weather. He came into the house and had a glass of ice water first. "Refreshing!" Then he washed up, packed everything, boiled water in the pot, and heated up the food packed at the state-owned restaurant at noon. It was a delicious dinner! Li Yan and her friends packed up their things and went out to ask for water in the village. When they got the water, they were disappointed.
"Why is it so muddy?"
The villagers next to them knew that they were new educated youths. They were quite enthusiastic about their new faces.
"That's good. Take it home and sit for two days. It will be fine."
The excitement just now has been brought back to reality.
Without a bucket, they carried the basin back to the educated youth point. Looking at the stove without a pot, the deserted stove, the cold kang, and the muddy water,
They realized that this was the countryside and they had arrived in a strange place.
They looked at each other.
After a long time, Chen Jianguo tried,
"How about we go to the village chief to exchange the food first, and then ask the educated youth Jian what we should prepare?"
Li Yan and Lin Zhaodi had no other choice but to nod and deal with it.
Liu Weimin had just sat down on the kang and was preparing to eat. He was still talking to Wang Guihua about the new educated youth when he heard a knock on the door. Liu Weimin paused as he picked up the chopsticks.
"Can't you let me eat quietly before coming back?"
Liu Dalian hadn't even gotten on the kang yet, and turned around and walked out.
"I'll go open the door."
Liu Weimin stood up.
"You guys eat, I'll go. They should be here to exchange food. I'll call Brother Aiguo and go directly to the village office to get it done for them."
Wang Guihua whispered,
"Don't exchange too much. I don't know how the village will survive this winter?"
"I know, I know what's going on. You guys eat first."
"Village chief,"
Liu Weimin didn't stop and walked out the door.
"You want to exchange food? Let's go. I'll take you there."
