Fast travel to the front line of eating melons in the world

Zhang Wei and his wife originally thought they had left home early, but when they arrived at the dock they found that quite a few people had already arrived.

Some were pushing carts, some were riding bicycles, and there were wooden boards on the back seats. It was obvious that they were here to pick up the educated youth.

The couple chose a place to stop, and then looked anxiously in the direction where the boat was coming.

Although it was winter and the Spring Festival was approaching, there were really a lot of boats on the river. Yao Ying originally thought that there were not many boats and she should be able to see the boat her daughter was on soon.

As a result, with so many ships passing by, she couldn't be sure.

At this moment, a middle-aged man shouted, "We're here, we're here."

When everyone heard the voice, they stood on tiptoe and looked, "Where it is, where it is."

The man pointed in a direction and said, "That's the Victory ship. I remember it very clearly. It was this ship that picked up and dropped off people in the past few years."

When everyone heard that it was the Victory, they quickly spotted the ship, and of course Zhang Wei and his wife also saw it.

Yao Ying was stunned as she watched the larger boats slowly approaching with their horns blaring. "There are so many educated youth, but only one boat."

The city sends ships to pick up people every year, and there is no need for travel expenses. Most of the educated youth will return to the city. Although Yao Ying does not know the exact number of educated youth, there should be several thousand people. Can this ship transport everyone back?

Zhang Wei was also stunned, "Just this one boat?"

A parent of an old educated youth nearby looked at them and said in disbelief, "Your child just went there."

Zhang Wei nodded, "Yes, I went there last summer."

The other party understood immediately, he was a graduate, "It's just such a boat, there are more people now, otherwise there were fewer educated youth in the past, and the boat was smaller."

"This is too small." Yao Ying still couldn't believe it, "There's no way to rest here."

"Find a place to sit down. This boat is usually used to transport goods, not people. Otherwise, with so many educated youth, one boat would not be enough. At least two or three boats are needed." The other party explained again.

It's a cargo ship. Yao Ying felt sad again. "This..."

The parents of the old educated youth said that as their own children were educated youth, they could understand why Yao Ying was so sad. "It's good. At least here, the city arranges boats to pick them up every year."

"My neighbor's children went to other places, and if they want to come back, they have to come back by themselves, and they have to pay for the travel expenses themselves."

"Yes, it's good. At least I can come back every year. My colleague's child went to the northwest for several years. I heard that there is a water shortage there. Alas, he has been gone for several years and has not come back."

"Yes, my eldest son went to the Northeast and has been gone for seven or eight years. He has not come back." A parent sighed and said helplessly, "Luckily my daughter went to the farm and can come back every year."

As everyone chatted, the mood couldn't help but become much lower. If at the beginning everyone was very happy to see their children come back, now that they mentioned that the other children could not come back, their mood suddenly became much lower.

"At least it's a good thing that a child can come back every year." A parent wiped away tears, "and the Chinese New Year is coming soon."

"Yes, yes, the New Year is coming soon." No matter what they thought in their hearts, the expressions on everyone's faces changed.

At this time, the ship was slowly approaching the shore. As the ship stopped, the crew let go of the planks, and immediately many people got off the cabin safely with the help of the crew, and either went back by themselves or found their relatives. In this way, there were fewer and fewer people on the dock.

Yao Ying couldn't help but get anxious, "Why can't I see my daughter?"

Although Zhang Wei was also very nervous, he did not panic, "Maybe my daughter brought too many things."

"There are too many things and it's difficult to get off the boat." Although there were crew members to help, there were too many people and everyone was in a hurry to get off the boat, so it was easy for something to go wrong.

Yao Ying thought it was right. At this moment, Yao Ying saw Zhang Yu from a distance, "Xiao Yu, it's Xiao Yu."

Zhang Wei took a closer look and found that it was indeed his own daughter. He walked over swiftly and was about to take the things from Zhang Yu's hand.

"Dad, wait a minute." Zhang Yu looked at Fan Zhiqing who was walking beside him, "Fan Zhiqing, I'm sorry to bother you, my dad is here to pick me up."

Zhang Wei was still confused. What was going on? How should he be introduced to the other educated youth, especially when the other party was a male educated youth? What was going on?

Did my daughter have a boyfriend on the farm? No, that's not right. She didn't mention it in the letter.

Just when Zhang Wei and Yao Ying were confused, Fan Zhiqing put down the rice in his hand and said, "Then I'm leaving."

After saying hello to Zhang Wei and the others, he picked up his things and left.

Zhang Wei had many questions to ask Zhang Yu. He glanced at the people coming out of the cabin and said, "Let's go first."

Anyway, the person has been picked up and I can ask him when I get home. This is not a good place to ask him questions now.

Zhang Yu didn't want to stay here either. When she got off the boat just now, she saw Wang Yan still following behind her. She couldn't let her get involved with her. What would she do if she pretended to be pitiful and said she was hungry and didn't have the strength to send the things back?

The three of them quickly put the things on the back rack of the car and found that Zhang Yu had no place to sit.

"Mom and Dad, let's walk back. We've been sitting in a small place and our bodies are feeling stiff. Let's take a short walk." Zhang Yu took Yao Ying's arm, saying that this place was not too far from home, so they might as well walk back.

Since my daughter said so, of course I did as she said, "Let's go."

"By the way, what did you eat on the boat? How was your rest yesterday?" Yao Ying asked with concern.

"I brought rice balls with me," he simply described how it looked like. "I rested after I got on the boat. I woke up around nine o'clock, but I didn't rest. After breakfast, I continued to rest."

Zhang Yu briefly described the situation on the boat. "Although the train was not comfortable, the weather was hot, and the sun was shining, and there was a strange smell in the carriage, but at least everyone had a place to sit."

"It's a stool. We're sitting on the floor this time."

"The four of us put the things in the middle, and the four of us stand outside." This can prevent the things from being stolen by others, and secondly, when taking a break, they can lean against the basket to rest.

As soon as Yao Ying heard this, she knew her daughter must not have gotten enough rest. "The weather has been good these two days, and your bed has been dried in the sun. Eat something when you get home, and then have a good rest."

"We just happen to have some meat that your brother exchanged at home. Let's have it for lunch..." Yao Ying thought about making braised pork when she got home. Although the time was a bit tight, it was a good opportunity for Zhang Yu to have a rest.

"Mom, it's okay. We'll eat together in the evening when Dad and Xiaojie come back." Looking around, "I also changed to a dried chicken this time."

This was exchanged with Carpenter Ding. Although she was only there for half a year, Zhang Yu visited the place several times. She drew the blueprints and asked Carpenter Ding to make several good things for her. This time, knowing that she would go back, Carpenter Ding half bought it and half gave it to her as a gift.
