Chapter 44
Wang Shui Sheng drove the village's old horse carriage with Qiao Zhen Guo and the female doctor on to the town.
He spoke to Qiao Zhen Guo, "There are so many educated youths coming over every year. The production team nearly can't fit them all in."
Qiao Zhen Guo was befuddled: "If you can't fit them in, then send them back. What's so difficult about this?"
Wang Shui Sheng: "..."
It seem that the atmosphere was a bit more awkward to not speak.
Wang Shui Sheng persisted: "Oh, Fang Family is constantly making trouble every day. If every household is like them, who would dare to be the production leader?"
Qiao Zhen Guo emotionally nodded: "Fortunately, our Qiao Family has nothing to do with them. Oh, I almost forgot that they are connected to your Wang Family now. Why can't your Wang Family think it through?"
Wang Shui Sheng: "..."
Sometimes, the sky was chatted to death like this!
Wang Shui Sheng closed his mouth, expressing that he didn't want to speak any more.
The female doctor who came with them heard this. Her lips slanted. She was very glad that she didn't speak.
Wang Shui Sheng was really worried in his heart. So many educated youths come down every year, and only a handful of them go back!
Some of these educated youths are slow-witted, while some were sick children. They ask for leave every three days. Few were really able to do farm work!
Reject having them can't do. This was above's assigned target. Really head-wrecking!
After more than an hour of bumpy ride, the carriage finally came to the gate of the town's station.
Because the educated youths were all arranged to arrive at the same time, it wasn't just their production team. Other production teams and communities had already arrived one after another.
This face-to-face confrontation immediately distinguishes the rich and the poor.
Some production teams drove tractors to pick up people, which was convenient and cool. It also garnish face.
Some use horse-drawn carriages to pick up people like Qili Village. Although the tools were a bit retro, they can still travel fast.
The poorer production teams can only use ox carts or mule carts. The poorest production team can't even get a mule cart. So they picked up the educated youth empty-handed!
The educated youths hoped that they could be assigned to production teams with tractors.
The better the production equipment, the richer it was. No one wanted to go to the production team that can only walk on two legs!
But there were more monks and less gruel . How can they all be assigned to the production team with tractors.
Soon a person-in-charge came over and began to allocate educated youth:
"Su Xing Sheng, Li Meng Meng... Cui Xiang. The seven of you follow the Hongtaiyang production team's leader."
"Ye Sheng..."
After reading for a long time, it was finally Qili Village's turn.
"Li Cai Liang, Wang Qing Shan, Cai Wei Guo... Ye Zhen Zhen, Da Zhi, the eight of you go to Qili production team's side!"
This time, Qili Village was assigned a total of eight educated youths. Four male and four female.
Wang Shui Sheng frowned even more when he saw that half of them were female.
It wasn't that he looked down on feamle. It was that farm work required strength. These kids from the city wouldn't be able to do farm work in the first place. Let alone the girls, who are arrogant and squeamish!
Wang Shui Sheng handed the list to Qiao Zhen Guo, who was on the side, and walked over to lead the educated youth over.
Qiao Zhen Guo took a look at the list and muttered, "There are still people called Blacksmith . Such a strange name, hahaha..."
Hearing the laughter, the female doctor turned her head and glanced at it. She only saw the word "Da Zhi " written on it. The corner of her mouth twitched. She silently lit a candle for the girl in her heart.
Ye Zhen Zhen and Da Zhi were two female educated youths from the same place. They were classmates, so they did everything together.
At this moment, the two of them were walking at the back. Their mouths droop and their faces expressed unhappiness.
Ye Zhen Zhen eyed at the tractor over at that side and spoke with slanted lips, "Why do you think we are so unlucky? It would be great if we could be assigned to that production team?"
Before she went to the countryside, she inquired around. Although they were all rural areas, the difference between rural areas and rural areas was also very big.
Some villages were richer than some counties and towns because of their good geographical location. Some villages were located in the mountains and corners. Not only were they very poor, but also very difficult to travel to a market.
When she came here, she was particularly afraid of being assigned to those poor production teams.
But her family was an ordinary family. On top of that she was a girl. Her family wasn't willing to find connections for her. Everything can only be left to fate.
Da Zhi's family was similar to Ye Zhen Zhen's. Both family didn't put in effort and they can only resign themselves to fate.
She glanced to both sides, and suddenly lowered her voice: "I wonder know when we can go back to the city. Have you ever thought about finding one in the countryside?"
Ye Zhen Zhen's expression said 'you're crazy': "Why do you have such a thought? Country people are old-fashioned and stupid. It can't be that you're thinking of marrying a country man?"
The corner of Da Zhi's mouth twitched. She stretched out her hand to tuck the hair on her temples behind her ears and replied, "Of course not. How could I be so dumb! However, you don't want your watery hands to become rough, right?"
Ye Zhen Zhen knew that Da Zhi had always had many tricks. So she leaned over to hold her hand and asked, "Do you have any plan? We are good friends. You must not hide it from me!"
Da Zhi leaned over and whispered in her ear.
Ye Zhen Zhen frowned from time to time. Her eyes also brightened from time to time. Finally she spoke, "This... I'm afraid it's not easy to handle, right?"
With a confident look on her face, Da Zhi curved her lips and merrily declared, "Then just wait and see. I'll show you how!"
Ye Zhen Zhen was surprised. Her eyes widened and exclaimed, "No way. You found your target so quickly? Could it be the production leader?"
Da Zhi hit her: "Damnit, be quiet! Do you want everyone to hear?"
Ye Zhen Zhen lowered her voice again: "Then tell me quickly. Which person did you chose?"
Da Zhi's eyes fell on the tall man with a simple and honest smile next to the carriage. Her lips pouted: "There. That one!"
The production leader had a high status. In principle, he was definitely better. But as soon as the production leader opened his mouth, she vetoed him.
Stubbornly strict, uncompromising and straightlaced. This kind of man was the most unlikely to mess around. It was too difficult to win this kind of man.
But the man next to the carriage was different. From the simple and honest smile on his face, she knew that this kind of person had little knowledge and a good temper. Seeing that he was tall and big, she was sure that he won't find excuse when she get him to help her in the future.
Ye Zhen Zhen followed her gaze and felt that Da Zhi was still the same as before. She liked good-looking men.
Although the man beside the carriage was a little older, got slightly darker skin, and have an old-fashioned air, his facial features were still pretty good.
At least he looked so many times better than the production leader who wore a straw hat and a frosty expression!
When they came to the carriage, Wang Shui Sheng announced in a rough voice, "Everyone get on the carriage. Men and women sit separately. Four on each side. Hurry up. It will take more than an hour to get back!"
In order to pick up these educated youth, who knows how much farm work was delayed!
When everyone saw the simple carriage, their hearts got a little colder again. Now it was like this, so what if they were dissatisfied?
Da Zhi was the fastest. She grabbed the seat next to Qiao Zhen Guo and sat down.
Da Zhi turned her face slightly and smiled, "This Elder Brother, can I sit here?"
Qiao Zhen Guo didn't answer.
Thinking he didn't hear it, Da Zhi asked again and gently pulled his sleeve.
This time, Qiao Zhen Guo heard it. He gave her a weird a look and responded, "You've already sat down and you're asking me if you can sit? What's the difference between doing that and taking off your pants to fart?"
Da Zhi: "..."
The female doctor sitting opposite almost couldn't hold back the laughter!
She turned her face to the side and shook violently.
Da Zhi lost face. She bit her lip lightly and resented that this country bumpkin was too ignorant!
However, Ye Zhen Zhen's two eyes were fixed on her. Thinking of her ocean wide boast she had just spouted, she didn't want to admit defeat.
Wang Shui Sheng saw that everyone had got onto the carriage, he also got on. With a holler, he drove the carriage back to the village.
Although they were dissatisfied with the broken carriage and that it wasn't a tractor, they were young people after all. They quickly introduced themselves to each other.
Da Zhi was the most beautiful among the four female educated youths. She spoke softly. The eyes of the four male educated youths fell on her at once.
It was a pity that Da Zhi didn't give them a gaze.
Of course, it didn't mean that she fell in love with Qiao Zhen Guo.
She just wanted to find a strong man in the production team and coax him to work for her.
At most, she will let the other party #receive some benefit. As long as she remained a virgin, it will not be difficult for her to return to the city and remarry in the future.
She had met an elder sister in the same yard as her family. After two years of going to the countryside, she had completely changed. She was dark and old-fashioned. Her skin was too rough. She had heard that it was because of too much farm work.
So she pondered about it before she went to the countryside this time. The tall man beside her was the first target she chose.
Halfway through the carriage-ride, a wild dog suddenly jumped out from the grass. It startled the horse and the carriage swayed.
Here was her chance!
God was helping her!
Da Zhi slanted her body. And as she screamed, she fall toward Qiao Zhen Guo.
Qiao Zhen Guo was caught off guard. There was a woman in his arms. Big eyes looked at small eyes.
Of course, Da Zhi didn't keep leaning on him. She sat upright soon and showed him a sweet and shy smile: "Elder Brother Qiao, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would definitely fall!"
From the conversation between him and the production leader just now, she already knew that his surname was Qiao and first name was Zhen Guo.
Qiao Zhen Guo turned back around with an "oh" and said to Wang Shui Sheng, "It turns out that pretty girls have boogers too. She fell down just now and I saw her boogers at a glance. There are quite a few!"
Everyone: "..."
Da Zhi: "..."
Just now, the educated youth had some favorable impressions of Da Zhi just because of her appearance. Now, that impression instantly collapsed in their heart.
Da Zhi's face went red and white. She almost broke her teeth from clenching in hatred!
...
In the provincial railway station.
A couple walked out of a green leather train. The woman was dressed in floral clothes, while the man was dressed in gray clothes. Their face was quite weathered.
After leaving the train station, the old man Hua complained: "The family is already too poor to open the stove. Why did you pick up a lass?"
Old woman Hua had a 'you're stupid' expression on her face: "Who do you think I'm doing this for? Isn't it for our son? Our family is so poor. And our son is an idiot. Which family do you think would be willing to give up their daughter and marry into our family?"
Realization dawned on old man Hua: "So... you want to raise this girly as a child bride?"
Old woman Hua nodded: "Of course, how much can a girl eat? It just happened that we are busy. She can help with the housework. Once she is old enough, she will directly be our son's wife, and give birth to a few grandchildren in the future. Our Hua Family will have a future!"
Old man Hua thought this idea was a good idea and looked at his wife with admiration, "You thought it through. Then we can go back after we buy something. Son must be waiting for us!"
The two of them walked towards the supply and demand cooperative. One was holding the child and the other was carrying the sack.
Not long after they left, a man and a woman came out from the alley.
The two looked at each other. The man followed, while the woman ran towards the police station.
