"What? You want to go to school too?"

When Su Qiuyue came back, she told her cousin that she might go to school. Her cousin was surprised and didn't know what to say.

How come these two are both in school? How come they are both in college? Is it because their family has lost its literary talent?

"Uncle, I'm only a few years old. If I could go to school, maybe I could go to work in a hospital after graduation. I wouldn't be a barefoot doctor anymore. The salary would be higher than it is now."

Su Qiuyue said to her cousin.

Her cousin and his family all understood what she said, but they were inevitably surprised.

The matter of studying has not been decided yet, Su Qiuyue can catch up with the autumn recruitment. It is still early now, and it is a good time to arrange things at home.

Xinyue will go to the commune middle school in two months. She can only come back once a week. The house cannot be left empty for too long, as it will be cold in winter.

At that time, Xu Hua and my cousin will live at home. It just so happens that my cousin can continue to make wool felt there.

My cousin is now very good at making shoes and hats with wool felt. Although she can only sell them to the purchasing station now, everyone in the brigade knows that the eldest daughter of Carpenter Xu can make felt shoes.

Of course, the felt toy thing was done secretly. After all, it was a sign of "not doing one's job properly". She, a "hard-core girl", couldn't do this.

It’s just right to be at Su Qiuyue’s house so as to avoid being seen by others.

Then there was the matter of helping the Sunai tribe as promised to Old Feng Xia. She calculated that she would probably need to find time to come back and do it.

That's good, at least the brigade doesn't have to find an excuse. It can also be more covert.

"Qiuyue?! Su Qiuyue!"

She was writing down her future plans for painting when she heard Sun Yanqiu's voice and quickly called out to her to come in.

"Do you know that you have been rehabilitated?!" Sun Yanqiu came in and rushed to Su Qiuyue and said excitedly.

"What?" Su Qiuyue didn't understand for a moment.

"Rehabilitation, the rehabilitation will begin now." Sun Yanqiu hurriedly repeated it carefully.

"At first we heard the new instructions on the radio, and everyone just listened. Unexpectedly, there would be action soon.

When we heard about it, some people on the farm had been rehabilitated and returned to their original places. "Sun Yanqiu was very excited, but she didn't know what she was excited about.

"There has also been a redress in our commune, but I don't know which brigade it is from."

"Why are you so excited?" Su Qiuyue asked her.

"Why are you so excited? Isn't this exciting? Those in the labor camps can go back, so can we go back too?" Su Qiuyue's voice became louder.

"You just mentioned the labor camps. Those people were previously sentenced to labor reform.

You are an educated youth, you are different from them." Su Qiuyue explained the situation to her. She should not be excited about the redress of others.

"Ah? This..." Sun Yanqiu only reacted after Su Qiuyue said this. The people in the Youth League Institute were still happy and were talking about whether they could go back too.

Completely forgetting that they were not of the same nature as those people, Sun Yanqiu was immediately discouraged and could only watch others leave.

"It's so boring. It's like this every day, every year. I really don't know how long I can hold on." Sun Yanqiu was in a low mood, especially after she went home for the Chinese New Year. She saw people similar to her going to work, getting married, and all having a goal in life. Their lives continued as usual. What about her?

She was just drifting here, unwilling to leave, and unable to go home. She didn't know what to do in the future.

"You're still the best. At least you're aiming to be a doctor. I work in the field every day, and I can see what I'm going to feel in the future.

This life is so boring." Sun Yanqiu said dejectedly.

"You can't say that. What's wrong with farmers spending their whole lives?"

"That's not what I meant. I just feel that life like this is exhausting." Sun Yanqiu also reacted.

"..." Su Qiuyue didn't dare to say some things. It was not the right time yet and she was afraid of causing trouble.

"This rehabilitation has just begun. If it were that easy, they would all be rehabilitated. They must be carefully examined one by one.

We have only just begun. Let's wait and see." Su Qiuyue could only comfort Sun Yanqiu from another perspective.

Now I can only let it go, what else can I do?

Not only her, Xu Feng also talked about this matter, but she was not as excited as Sun Yanqiu.

"I heard that the people living in the cowshed of the Second Brigade were taken back." Xu Feng knew a little more.

"From the bullpen? Was he knocked down? Or something?" Su Qiuyue asked.

"He was knocked down. It is said that he was a very powerful person in the past." Xu Feng said.

"Oh." Su Qiuyue nodded. This was just the beginning, and those who were rehabilitated were all scientists and cadres.

Some people with bad backgrounds were finally rehabilitated, which should have been in the past two years. The speed of rehabilitation was still very fast, and then they had to take the college entrance examination again.

Su Qiuyue had never thought about taking the college entrance examination. She didn't think she had the ability to pass it. Besides, she would be able to go to school soon, so there was no need to go through the trouble.

There is no use thinking about these things now; they all take time.

They had already let it go, but others gradually began to get excited, especially the educated youth.

After Su Qiuyue received a call from Da Zhang, she had to go to the town and then go directly into the mountains. Sun Yanhong happened to come to find her.

"Please take me in for a few days." Sun Yanhong brought out her bedding and other things, and it was obvious that she planned to stay for a while.

"What's the matter?" Su Qiuyue was packing her things.

"Didn't I talk to you about redress last time? You poured a bucket of cold water on me and it chilled me to the bone.

I didn't think about those things anymore, but the educated youth were like crazy, getting more and more excited every day, and talking about rehabilitation day and night.

I feel like I can go back soon. I think the situation is not good. They are trying to form some kind of alliance, so I have to hide. "Sun Yanqiu said.

"Oh my god, are they crazy? Then you really have to hide. The fields are busy right now, and the brigades in our commune attach great importance to the work in the fields. It would be uncomfortable to make a fuss at this time." Su Qiuyue said seriously.

Anyone who dares to delay work in the fields in their team will be dealt with seriously.

"Isn't he crazy? I guess it's because he's endured these past few years, and he seems to be in trouble when he sees some signs.

I can't listen to anything else." Sun Yanqiu could understand.

"I'm going out, so you have an excuse to come to my house. If not, you can just move in. There's no one at home if I go to school." Su Qiuyue said.

"Okay, but let's wait a little longer about moving here. By the way, I really don't know what Song Xiaojuan is thinking. I thought she would stop being such a troublemaker after we got married.

I think this time it was all because of her correspondence. The Youth League started to unite because of her correspondence," said Sun Yanqiu.

"Song Xiaojuan?" Su Qiuyue didn't expect it was Song Xiaojuan again. She thought she would have to be quiet for a while.

"It was her. She wrote the letter, but she had to read it out. This magnified the thoughts of other teams, and then they wrote letters to form a coalition.

I feel like this is not going to be a good thing if it continues like this." Sun Yanqiu was a little worried. She couldn't do anything on her own. Those people were so angry that they wouldn't listen to anything.

"You should take care of yourself first and stay here. I will be away for many days."

These things were not something she or Sun Yanqiu could stop. Since there was no other way, she should just protect herself.

After telling her sister in the evening, Su Qiuyue went to the town the next day and stayed directly in the guesthouse.

Early the next morning, she changed her clothes, put on a headscarf, and started heading towards the warehouse.

Su Qiuyue opened her mouth in surprise when she saw the boxes of salt, sugar, candles and other supplies in the warehouse.

More than she had seen in the shops of the commune.

"What is this?" Su Qiuyue saw a sack and squeezed it but couldn't figure out what was inside. She put all the other things away and just left the sack to open it to see what was inside.

The bag was not big. When Su Qiuyue opened it, she saw seeds that she didn't recognize. She reached in and touched something inside.

A piece of paper said that the bag contained cotton seeds. The reason for giving cotton seeds to the tribe was that they hoped to get a batch of cotton next year.

Da Zhang also talked about his difficulties. He encountered some difficulties when getting supplies. He wanted to exchange some military supplies with the army. The army did not have enough supplies, so he had to give some of them because the army needed a batch of cotton for military supplies.

Da Zhang was also sincere in the letter. He did not put all his hopes on the tribe in this matter. It was okay to live without cotton and food.

In that case, Su Qiuyue thought she could find a loophole.

She took out some more food from the space, as well as some vegetables that had been stored previously. Anyway, Da Zhang had already seen Old Feng Xia taking out out-of-season items, so if she took them out now, no one would suspect her.

Then he wrote a note and exchanged it with Da Zhang for sacks and grain seeds.

After putting everything away, Su Qiuyue hurried back to the guesthouse. The car back hadn't arrived yet, so there was still time to plant all the cotton seeds in the space.

When the time came, they would take a bus directly to Shanghecun'er's brigade, and then head straight up the mountain. She remembered the way, as they had talked about it when they parted.

After calling her, he gave her three days, and then called Old Man Zhao. Then, four days later, they would meet at the agreed place.

Su Qiuyue took all her things away the next day, and with plenty of extra days in between, she could go up the mountain by herself.

Su Qiuyue entered the forest and began to look for herbs and wild vegetables. She dug them out and put them in the space, first in the warehouse, and then planted the herbs after the cotton was planted.

When you are tired, you can just hide in the space to rest. It is safe and comfortable.

When the time was almost up, I hurried to the place where I had agreed to meet Old Man Zhao and waited.

Then we walked for two days to reach the cabin.

"Girl, in two days, follow the road we came from and look for the big dead tree we passed by. I'll wait for you there."

After saying this, Old Man Zhao left without stopping at all and without thinking of finding out anything.

Now that Old Man Zhao is gone, she can wander around. Last time she saw the big tree nearby, there were many new buds nearby. She wondered what it looked like now.

Since she was alone, she packed up and went. There was not only a lot of grass under the big tree, but also thick moss growing under the roots.

Su Qiuyue didn't see anything useful, but there were a lot of wild flowers. She picked some and put them in a vase.

When Su Qiuyue had nothing to do during the day, she would go out for a stroll. It didn’t matter if she walked a little far, and she actually found some medicinal herbs.

She will go to find Old Man Zhao tomorrow morning, and take all the things out of the space and pile them in the cabin in the middle of the night.

The cabin was not big, but it was filled to the brim. Su Qiuyue estimated that someone would come in the next two days, so she put the extra things at the door.

The next day, they walked in the direction that Old Man Zhao had mentioned. Old Man Zhao had marked the way along the way, and Su Qiuyue just had to follow the marks until she reached the big tree stump.

The big tree stump is easy to identify. I don’t know how many years ago it was struck by lightning and died. The dead tree has grown new branches again in the spring.

The new branches have grown very tall, but they are not straight enough, they are a bit crooked and can be seen from far away.

It was already afternoon when Su Qiuyue got there. She didn't see Old Man Zhao, but she saw the mark he left.

Su Qiuyue guessed that Old Man Zhao must have seen some prey again.

Anyway, she was not in a hurry. When Old Man Zhao came back, it was already late and they could not leave. Anyway, they had to spend the night here, so Su Qiuyue started looking for firewood and preparing to find a place to start a fire.

Fortunately, Old Man Zhao came not long after she started looking for him.

"I didn't expect you to be so quick. Come with me, I've found a place to spend the night." Old Man Zhao greeted Su Qiuyue and led her to the place he had found.

It was already late when they arrived, so they hurried to find firewood and make a fire to cook.

After finally calming down and sitting down to rest, Old Man Zhao explained why he was late today.

"I was digging a rabbit hole when I ran into a flying dragon. I chased it all the way. That's why I came back late." Old Man Zhao laughed.

"Flying dragon? Uncle, you are so awesome. You caught another flying dragon?" Su Qiuyue was also surprised. It was a flying dragon.

"Here." Old Man Zhao pulled out a flying dragon bird from his pile of prey and threw it in front of Su Qiuyue.

Su Qiuyue is really a flying dragon.

"Uncle, please sell this flying dragon to me. I can exchange it with you. What do you want?" Su Qiuyue said happily.

"Will you never forget it after eating it once?" Old Man Zhao nodded.

"I want to take it back for my sister to try. Uncle, what do you want to exchange for it?" Su Qiuyue asked.

"Food, for example. I know a little bit about what Ake and the others are worried about, so I have to make some preparations," said Old Man Zhao.

"Okay, sir. I'll bring you food next time." Su Qiuyue quickly put Feilong into her backpack.

The two of them successfully arrived at the place where they separated last time, and Old Man Zhao left just like last time. Su Qiuyue also hurried home.

With Feilong, the first thing Su Qiuyue did when she got home was to stew it with Sun Yanqiu. If Feilong wasn't here, even if she put mushrooms in it, it would only be a little bit, so Su Qiuyue didn't send it to the backyard.

"Sister, this is so delicious. It smells so good." Xinyue's mouth was filled with fragrance. Unfortunately, there was only so much, and the three of them were gone after just a few bites.

"Of course it's delicious. You're lucky to have it."

"No, I've heard about dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground for a long time, but I haven't heard of anyone in the team eating it in all these years.

Oh? I won’t tell anyone even if I eat it.” Sun Yanqiu also ate with great satisfaction.

"Xinyue, please clean the table. We'll chat for a while." Su Qiuyue pushed the bowl aside and went to bed with Sun Yanqiu.

Xinyue got up obediently and cleaned the table.

"How are the educated youth doing during the few days I've been away?" This is what Su Qiuyue wanted to know.

"You missed the fun because you left." Sun Yanqiu became excited when talking about this.
