Space in hand: Being an educated youth in the 1970s

When Li Xiangjun heard that he and Zhou Qi were not assigned to a village, he was disappointed, and walked over and looked down at Zhou Qi: "Comrade Zhou, I have been assigned to Hongyang Village, in the village next to Hongxing Village, if you need help in Hongxing Village, you can come to me if you need help in Hongxing Village."

Zhou Qi looked at this shy and enthusiastic comrade and replied: "Okay, Comrade Li, I will be able to do so, and thank you for giving me a seat just now."

After speaking, after thinking about it for a while, Zhou Qi took out a big white flour steamed bun that had not been eaten on the train from the package and handed it to Li Xiangjun: "Comrade Li, this is for you, don't dislike it, thank you for your help just now."

"How can you dislike it, this is food, or fine food, you keep it for yourself, I don't want it." Lee Sang-jun listened and waved his hand again and again.

"You just take it, I'm going to gather" After speaking, he gave it to Li Xiangjun and Zhou Qi went to the assembly point in Hongxing Village to gather.

At the gathering place of Hongxing Village, a village chief and a production team leader came, and the village chief knocked on the dry tobacco pole and chatted with the production captain: "Eight more educated youths have come to our village, what is the use of these hands that can't be carried on their shoulders." Saying

that, he sighed: Alas, so many people are another food expense, I don't know what to do with these educated youths in the countryside, they can't do anything.

"Uncle, there is no way to do this, we can only follow the instructions issued by the above. "

The production captain is also very helpless, this is the second batch of educated youth, the original batch of educated youth is now also in the educated youth point, earning those few points every day, not enough to eat, and the team subsidy, and now there are eight educated youth points can not live, it is really sad.

The village chief took the cigarette stick and knocked again: "Okay, these go back to find someone to go up the mountain to pull wood, rebuild the Zhiqing Point, and expand two rooms."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eight educated youths on the list came over with their luggage.

"Is this the reception of the educated youth of Hongxing Village, the eight of us are educated youths who have been assigned to Hongxing Village. A

group of people came over and chattered, so lively.

"I'm Wei Guofu, the captain of the production team of Hongxing Village, this is our village head Wei Jianmin, just the eight of you educated youths, put things on the ox cart and go back before dark.

Wei Guofu said and pointed to Wei Jianmin, who was squatting on the ground.

When everyone looked over, they saw the village chief squatting on the ground next to the ox cart smoking dry tobacco, with his trouser legs on his calves, and a straw hat on his head, looking like a very simple peasant.

"Okay, let's put our luggage on then.

Only then did the village chief notice Zhou Qi in the crowd, wearing a knitted dress, wearing a plum blossom brand women's watch on her hand, and small brown high-heeled sandals on her feet.

Thinking of this, he frowned, this delicate and weak, can he get off the ground, and his already wrinkled face collapsed even more.

The village chief knocked on the ox cart with a cigarette stick: "Okay, hurry up and get in the car, let's go to the village."

After saying that, he took the lead and got into the ox cart.

Zhou Qi watched everyone get on the ox cart with their luggage, she was wearing a small skirt and was about to grit her teeth and climb up, only to see the new female intellectual, Niu Ailing, stretch out her hands: "Come, comrade, I'll help you step on."

Zhou Qi was suddenly grateful, smiled gratefully at Niu Ailing, and helped her hands to get into the ox cart.

As soon as he sat down, the production captain said, "Sit tight, start leaving." After saying that, the

ox cart began to move, and the ox flicked its tail and walked slowly.

"Hello comrades, I'm Song Dynasty, from H City, the third in the family, it's not easy for all of us to get together, or let's all introduce ourselves.

Song Songguo saw that everyone was there, and wanted to have a good relationship with the educated youth before entering the village, so he asked.

Wang Mei listened, and immediately glanced at Song Songguo, and then said: "Okay, okay, let's start from my side, my name is Wang Mei, I am also from H City, the second oldest in the family, there is an elder brother above, three younger sisters and two younger brothers below, and my father is an employee of the H City Food Factory."

"My name is Li Xiangxiang, I am from G City and County, my father is from the supply and marketing cooperative, and my mother is from the Women's Federation. Li Xiangxiang lowered her head and muttered.

"My name is Zhang Guobin, I am from G City, and I am also the third in the family, I have two older sisters above and one younger sister below. "

My name is Wang Jianyue, I am from H City like Song Dynasty, and my father is a worker in a fabric factory.

"My name is Lin Fangfang, I am also from H City, the sixth in the family, and my father is also a worker. After speaking, Lin Fangfang glanced at Zhou Qi.

"My name is Niu Ailing, our family is from X Province, not far from here, the most famous goat milk candy, if you have the opportunity to try it, you are welcome to come to X Province to play.

Zhou Qi listened to their self-introduction, quietly looked at the educated youths of this era, and gave these educated youths a mental understanding.

When it was Zhou Qi's turn, she looked at everyone and said lightly in a sweet voice: "My name is Zhou Qi, I am from H City, I am the only child in our family, my father is the director of H City Machinery Factory, and my mother is the head of the Art Troupe."

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, and even the village chief and the production team leader who were sitting at the head of the ox cart couldn't help but look at her.

I didn't expect this little girl to look soft and weak, and her family is so big, no wonder she looks very valuable at first glance.

The educated youths who came together from H City didn't expect that Zhou Qi's father was actually the director of the machinery factory, and his mother was still from the art troupe, and they each looked at each other and had their own little calculations in their eyes.

Only except for Lin Fangfang, she was panicked, thinking of what she said to Zhou Qi along the way, her heart jumped, and she couldn't be afraid.

In fact, there are eight children in their family, just one worker, and the family does not have enough food, so she was sent down, she was originally jealous of Zhou Qi's white and delicate skin.

She didn't expect Zhou Qi to be so big, she thought that she was pretending at most, but she didn't expect her father to be the factory director, and she was originally quite jealous of Zhou Qi, but now she is not at the same level, she can't be jealous at all, only envy.

Song Songguo had Xiao Jiujiu in his heart and kept looking towards Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi knew how everyone would react when she said this, but she didn't want to keep a low profile and let the family know that her father was the factory director and her mother was the head of the regiment, so that no one would dare to attack her.

When Wang Jianyue heard that Zhou Qi's family background was so good, he was immediately disappointed, looked down at his torn cloth shoes, and then looked at Zhou Qi, and suddenly felt inferior, and never made a sound again.

"Wow, Zhou Qi, your father is actually the factory director, so why did you come to N City to go to the countryside. Niu Ailing heard Zhou Qi's introduction, and her hearty personality made her take the initiative to ask.

"The factory director also has to abide by the country's regulations, and when the age is up, I take the initiative to ask to come down. The

people around them were suddenly envious, their eyes were complicated, they were forced to come down, otherwise they wanted to stay in the city.

At this time, everyone was silent, the village chief was smoking dry tobacco in the front of the car, and only the ox cart walked quietly.
