The educated youth gathering point in Fengshan County, after the truck sent by Qingjiang City delivered the people, they drove the rest of the educated youth to other destinations.

After counting the number of people, the recipients sent by Fengshan County also took out the list and began to divide the people into various villages.

He read a few names, asked people to stand together, and then said the name of the village for them to remember.When the person who comes to pick you up arrives in a while, you can follow them directly.

After all the parts were finished, the man put away the list and went to pick up the first batch of production team leaders or village chiefs who came to pick them up.Some of them came alone, and some came in two or three. There were several villages, most of them came here on foot, and only one or two drove an ox cart.

Before the person who came to pick them up arrived, Xiang Chen leaned half on Xu Hengzhou's body, touched his rumbling stomach, and felt a little hungry.

Just as Xu Hengzhou was about to ask Xiang Chen if he wanted to eat something first, he was slapped on the shoulder.The young man named Shi Hao put his arm on Xu Hengzhou's shoulders, approached Xu Hengzhou with a smile, and said familiarly: "Brother, we will be in the same place from now on, please take care of us."

Xu Hengzhou froze slightly, turned his body calmly, got Shi Hao's arm off, and said politely: "Naturally, take care of each other."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the group of people around him with a headache. They were all demons and ghosts, and all those in trouble moved to his side.I don't know how Xiang Chen did it, the power of this speech spirit is a bit strong.

That's right, everyone who was named by Xiang Chen is now standing by Xu Hengzhou's side, that is to say, they are the educated youths who went to Dahe Village together, "Shuangwei", Zou Sinan, Jia Wenxing, Shi Hao, and him and Xiang Chen.

Jia Wenxing next to him was still persevering in talking to Yuan Wei, while Zou Sinan recklessly interrupted from time to time, taking Jia Wenxing's topic with him everywhere but couldn't find it.

Qu Wei was still the same as when she was in the car, standing alone at the side, drawing a clear boundary with the others.

Xu Hengzhou ruffled Xiang Chen's hair in annoyance, and was defeated by his blank eyes.Forget it, I hope that pair can be divided into three teams, at least across the river.

Not long after, a few more people came over, three of them were driving ox carts, all men in their fifties, wearing patched jackets.

They walked up to the person in charge of the work, and the leader greeted him: "Comrade, we are from Dahe Village, and we are here to pick up the educated youth."

The man waved his hand towards Xu Hengzhou and said, "Those are the ones, come and sign and take them away."

A man following behind complained: "Comrade, why are there so many in our village every time?"

The man handed the notebook in his hand to the leader, and said with a smile, "Your Dahe Village is one of the largest villages in our county. How about a few more educated youths?"

The man still wanted to talk, but the leader glared at him, and then he closed his mouth resentfully.

In fact, it's not surprising that this person complained that the educated youth who went to the countryside had to send someone to teach them how to work, which was a waste of manpower.Even if you teach it, you may not be able to do it, and if you know it, you can't do it as well as farmers who have worked all year round. That's it, centimeters can't be considered less.

In addition, the male educated youths are better, because they have the strength, and the female educated youths, they can't do a lot of hard work, so there are so many easy jobs for them to do.Moreover, like Xiang Chen and the others, winter came better, at least there was not so much work in the fields, if a few more educated youths came during the busy farming season, it would be really messy.

So when the educated youths went to the countryside, the village welcomed and expected these young people from the city. Now, just like this man, many people are dissatisfied.

The leader wrote his name on the notebook in his hand, then walked up to Xu Hengzhou and the others, and introduced himself: "I am Chen Youshan, the village head of Dahe Village, and these two are the production team leaders of our village, Chen Fuhe Chen Guomin."

Chen Fu is Qinqin's uncle and the captain of the first production team. Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou should be assigned to his production team this time.

Chen Fu looked like a very honest and honest person, and he hadn't spoken much since just now.Facing Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou, he didn't show any other expressions. Chen Xiaomei should have told him when he went back, telling him not to reveal the fact that he knew Brother Xu Hengzhou.

It was Chen Guoliang who complained just now. He was Chen Guoliang's second brother, but he was adopted by someone else when he was a child.But the mother of that family died early. Although Chen Guomin called the old lady Chen's aunt, he was still filial in front of his own mother.

Chen Guoliang glanced at the six educated youths standing together, and felt even more dissatisfied. There were too many people, and there were three girls who looked so delicate that they couldn't do much work.When he saw Xiang Chen, his eyes froze.

Xiang Chen subconsciously hid behind Xu Hengzhou. When he was bought by Chen Guoliang's family, he followed him and Cai Zhen to Dahe Village, but he didn't cross the river to the other side, and stayed at Chen's house all afternoon.But I met Chen Guomin at that time, after such a long time, I probably wouldn't recognize him.

Chen Guomin didn't recognize Xiang Chen, he pointed at Xiang Chen and said dissatisfiedly, "Why do you still have a child? What can you do at such a young age?"

"What's the name!" The village chief Chen Youshan reprimanded him.

Xu Hengzhou hastily explained what was said in the car again. Chen Guomin heard that Xiang Chen didn't distribute food, so he shut up.

After such a commotion, several educated youths could see that Chen Guomin didn't welcome them very much, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.

Jia Wenxing still had a bit of anger on his face. In his imagination, he was a high school student from the capital city. Although he came to this remote place to support the construction, not to mention the special welcome ceremony, it shouldn't be like this.

The village chief patted the car board and said, "Put your luggage up, let's go, and talk while walking."

The educated youths didn't say a word, they piled their luggage into the bullock carts, and then followed the village head, and the group walked to Dahe Village.

It was much easier to not have to carry luggage on the road, so Xu Hengzhou dragged Xiang Chen slowly to the back, and stuffed Xiang Chen with a piece of chocolate while no one was paying attention.The chocolate melted in his mouth, probably because of his heart, Xiang Chen felt that he was not so hungry anymore.

On the way, Jia Wenxing scrambled to introduce the information about the educated youths to the village chief, which is what they said in the car.When he arrived at Xiang Chen, he probably didn't pay attention. He didn't know Xiang Chen's name, so he blurted it out.

It takes more than an hour to walk from the county seat to Dahe Village, and there is a long slope in the middle, which is not very easy to walk.The village chief and the other two were used to walking and didn't feel tired, but the others began to breathe heavily.

The village chief looked at the young people following him. Both Xu Hengzhou and Shi Hao were fine, but there was sweat on their foreheads. Xiang Chen was panting slightly, while Jia Wenxing was already panting heavily, louder than the girls next to him.Fortunately, although the girls were panting with exhaustion, they gritted their teeth and did not complain, which made the village head's impression of them much better.

"Rest for a while before leaving." The village head stopped the cattle drive.

Everyone stopped immediately, Jia Wenxing almost sat down on the ground, but fortunately Shi Hao was beside him to help him, so that he would not make a fool of himself.

Jia Wenxing breathed a sigh of relief, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you let us sit if there is a car?" Otherwise, he would almost make a fool of himself.

As soon as he said this, the three people in Dahe Village looked at him very badly.At this time, unlike later generations, various machines were used on a large scale in the fields. At this time, cattle are still an important property in the village, and they are used for plowing and pulling carts. Not as meticulous as taking care of cattle.

Therefore, the villagers are very careful, and they are stingy with the strength of the cattle, hoping that they can give more strength during the busy farming season.

The village head drove the car to pick up the educated youth, but he was not willing to sit in it himself, and asked them to put their luggage on it to reduce the burden.As a result, Jia Wenxing was not only not grateful, but also complained a lot, which aroused dissatisfaction all of a sudden, and even the other educated youths were embarrassed, obviously not agreeing with his words.

The village chief gave him a cold look: "Only one person can sit, you sit?"

Jia Wenxing's face froze, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that there were women and children, so it was his turn to sit on it.

He turned his neck stiffly, trying to tell Yuan Wei to let her sit down, but as soon as his eyes met, Yuan Wei turned to talk to Zou Sinan, apparently unwilling to sit down.

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward. Chen Fu and Chen Guomin must be on the village chief's side, waiting for Jia Wenxing to make a fool of himself.Jia Wenxing's eyes swept over the three girls, but they all refused to meet his eyes, their attitudes were obvious.

Jia Wenxing's face flushed instantly, and his eyes were bloodshot, looking a little scary.He gritted his teeth, turned around and really prepared to sit on it himself.

At this moment, Xu Hengzhou hugged Xiang Chen, put him on the car, and said to the village chief, "Let my brother sit."

It's not that he really has such good intentions to help Jia Wenxing, it's just that they are still a group now, and Jia Wenxing really let Jia Wenxing enter the village in a bullock cart. return.

Jia Wenxing is shameless, he wants more, and they will stay in Dahe Village for several years if nothing else happens, and they will leave a bad impression when they come, and this blame is too miserable.

Let Xiang Chen sit on it, one is to let him rest for a while, and the other is that he should be the lightest, so that the village chief who cherishes the cattle will not be more dissatisfied.

Sure enough, Xiang Chen sat down in the car with a blank face, the village chief didn't say anything, he waved the bullwhip and said, "Let's go."

Jia Wenxing followed behind in a trance, and after such a commotion, everyone didn't want to talk anymore, and walked all the way in a dull atmosphere.

Xu Hengzhou calculated the time and felt that it was almost done, so he hugged Xiang Chen down and said that he had had enough rest and let him walk for a while.

The village head glanced at Xu Hengzhou, didn't speak, and continued to drive the ox cart forward, and arrived outside Dahe Village in a short while.

Because the six educated youths are divided into different production teams, the first team and the second team are close to each other, and the educated youths also live together, but the educated youths of the third team live with the villagers on the side of the river, so they have to put Educated youths are good.

If Chen Guomin could choose by himself, he would definitely want two men, but it happened that there were three men and three women, so there must be one man and one woman.

Without waiting for the village chief to speak, he pointed at Shi Hao and Yuan Wei first and said: "Village chief, let them join our team."

On the way, the village chief briefly talked about the situation in Dahe Village, so the educated youths also understood what was going on now.

The village head didn't speak, nodded and said: "All right."

Yuan Wei's expression tightened, and she softened her voice and said, "Village Chief, Sinan and I want to live together, can we form a team?"

Chen Guomin immediately said: "No, village head, I don't want two girls."

Yuan Wei smiled gently, walked up to Qu Wei, and begged, "Can we change? I want to be with Sinan."

Qu Wei looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

Chen Guomin glanced at them, hummed twice, and said nothing, which was a tacit agreement.

Therefore, Shi Hao and Qu Wei stayed here, and Chen Guomin led them into the village.The village head drove the ox cart and took the rest of the people across the river to the other side.

The river that separates Dahe Village has no name. The river is about 20 meters wide. According to the village chief, the deepest part is more than [-] meters deep. Children who played in the river once drowned.

When he said this, he glanced at Xu Hengzhou, Xu Hengzhou understood, the village chief told him to look after Xiang Chen.

There is a wooden bridge on the river, which is relatively simple, but not too narrow. It can pass a bullock cart. It should be built by the villagers themselves. There are small boats on the riverside, which are parked on the bank.

The village head drove a bullock cart and led a group of people across the bridge.There was a laundry woman by the river. Seeing the village head and Chen Fu, they greeted each other and looked at Xu Hengzhou and the others with curious eyes.

When entering the village, all you see are earth-embryo houses, most of which are covered with thick straw, and occasionally one or two houses are made of tiles.

The village head sent them to the educated youth spot, where the two big houses near each other are specially for the educated youth.Because the first team and the second team are close to each other, they are actually living together, so the educated youth also live together.

There are big shops in the house, one for male educated youths and one for female educated youths. Before Xiang Chen and the others came, there were already more than ten people living here, an average of seven or eight people per room, plus their newcomers, There are only a dozen or so, and one can imagine what kind of accommodation conditions they will have.

The village chief and Chen Fu helped them put their luggage in first. Xiang Chen glanced at the house, which was not sloppy, but definitely not clean, and felt a little worried.His brother seems to be a bit of a clean freak, living in such a house can't make him suffer.

After putting away their luggage, the village head called them out, and both Yuan Wei and Zou Sinan looked unhappy.When Xiang Chen thought about it, he realized that the environment of the female educated youth was probably not that good, but it was also, it was getting colder and colder, and there was not much hot water, so he could only make do with it, and it would not be the case when there were more people.

The village chief asked them to come out to divide into production teams. Chen Fu rubbed his hands, smiled honestly and said, "Let these two come to our team." He was referring to Xu Hengzhou and Zou Sinan.

Jia Wenxing was so happy that he could hardly control his expression. With so many people, he and Yuan Wei were not only assigned to a village, but also to a production team. What is this?It's fate!

The village head looked at Jia Wenxing and frowned, and asked him to choose, he would rather choose Xu Hengzhou who had a child than the one who was not clear-headed.But Chen Fu had told him in advance that Xu Hengzhou would definitely be assigned to the first team, so he could only keep Jia Wenxing.

The joy on Jia Wenxing's face was too obvious, as if he and Yuan Wei really had something, Yuan Wei looked a little embarrassed.She glanced at Xu Hengzhou who was thinking with downcast eyes, and wanted to say that she was on the same team as him, but she just rejected Chen Guomin, and it would be unwise to reject the village chief.

In the end, she didn't say anything, and the matter was settled.

After solving the detachment, the village head said: "You just came here, so you may not have brought any food. The village can provide some food first, but you have to make up for it when the food is distributed. The educated youths eat together, and the stove is over there."

He pointed to a small thatched hut built between the two houses, and an earthen stove could be vaguely seen.

"I will tell you about other situations when the educated youths are off work. If you have any questions, you can come to me." After the village chief finished speaking, he looked at a few people and asked them if there was anything else.

Xu Hengzhou said: "Village chief, I want to ask, if the educated youth eat together, should the food be put together?"

The village chief nodded and said, "That's right."

Xu Hengzhou frowned: "Village Chief, you also know that I took my younger brother with me. He doesn't divide the rations, so it's not suitable for him to eat with everyone. I originally planned to supplement some food by myself, but I can't explain it like this. There are so many big guys. It’s not convenient to cook for him alone, it’s a waste of money and water.”

Having said that, he paused for a while, seeing that the village chief didn't interrupt him, and knowing that there was something wrong, he continued: "Look if there are any other vacant houses in the village, it doesn't matter if they are a little dilapidated, let my brother and I live alone. "

The village head pondered for a moment, Chen Fu thought of what his sister had said back home, and chimed in: "Second brother, what he said makes sense, let's make trouble again..."

Chen Youshan was second among the brothers, so Chen Fu called his second brother. What he didn't say after that was to remind the village chief of the troubles that the educated youths in the village had made.

When the educated youth point was first established earlier, there were small-minded educated youths who almost got into fights because they got a spoonful of porridge for this one and an extra bowl of soup for that one.Just like what Xu Hengzhou said, Xiang Chen needs to eat and drink, and living with the educated youths, there will always be unclear, so it's better to separate early in the morning.

The village head hesitated and said, "There is no room."

Chen Fu also froze for a moment. Building a house is a big deal. Even if a new house is built, the old house will not be left unused. There are really no vacant houses in the village.These two classrooms for the educated youths were the original classrooms of the village primary school. Later, the only old principal who could teach some characters disappeared, so they were vacated as warehouses, and later temporarily vacated for the educated youths to live in.

"Hey, isn't Lao Lintou's house still there?" Chen Fu thought about it, and finally remembered a place.

The village head suddenly realized, yes, Lao Lintou's house is still there, then shook his head and said: "I'm afraid the house can't be lived in."

Xu Hengzhou has been listening to their conversation, knowing that this is his only chance, he doesn't want to share a room with so many people, it's too inconvenient and uncomfortable to live in.

So he quickly answered, "It's okay, we can live in anything." Xiang Chen also nodded.

The village chief frowned and said, "Not only is it broken, but the house is far away, aren't you afraid to live together?"

It turned out that the original owner of that house was a hunter. The house was built at the foot of the mountain, and it was a short walk from the nearest family.

Later, everything was collected by the collective, and hunting was not allowed on the mountains. Lao Lintou had no children, no daughters, and no wife. He planted the Susukida allotted to him.

But his house is not big. Lao Lintou lives alone, so he built two rooms, one bedroom, and one half for sundries and half for the kitchen.The villagers also wanted to live there, but the whole family couldn't live there, and it was uncomfortable to be separated from the villagers, so the house was vacant.

After hearing this, Xu Hengzhou not only didn't dislike it, but was pleasantly surprised. It's good to be far away, and he doesn't have to worry about people finding out if he cooks something delicious.Moreover, the room is small and just right, he and Xiang Chen live together, so that if they can't live there in the future, they will be treated like educated youths.

Xu Hengzhou was satisfied in his heart, but the expression on his face was tightly hidden, "It's okay, as long as I have a place to live, I think it's pretty good, we are the ones who caused you trouble."

Everyone likes to hear beautiful words. The village chief rubbed his teeth and said: "Okay, you stay here for two days first, and I will find someone to repair that house for you. Last time I went to see it, there was a big hole in the roof. , just living in it like this can freeze people out of the water."

Xu Hengzhou hurriedly said: "I'm so sorry, everyone is still working, otherwise, I still have some white sugar in my luggage, not much, only two or three catties, you can help me entertain the folks with it, and give it to the big guys. Bowl of sugar water to drink."

The village chief gave him a surprised look, saw his sincerity, and understood what he meant. This is the person who took the three catties of sugar as a reward for helping him repair the house.

Don't look at it as two or three catties of sugar. To build a house, at most two or three people can do it. If you want to be quicker, four or five people can do it. If you share one point, one person can get half a catty.Take it home, I usually don’t want to eat it, give the child a pinch, lick and eat it slowly, it will make the child happy for a long time, and put away the rest. Save face.

Working for free and getting paid are two different concepts, not to mention that Xu Hengzhou's reward is very attractive. He is so good, and the village chief thinks highly of him.

"Okay, I'll help you find someone to repair the house, and you can move in the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Without further ado, Xu Hengzhou turned around and went into the house to look through his luggage, and took out a bag of sugar from the space and handed it to the village chief.The village head was not polite to him, took it over to look at it, and put it away.

"Okay, you guys put your things back, it will be inconvenient if people come back later." The village chief waved his hands and was about to turn around and leave.

Jia Wenxing, who had been listening for a long time, rushed over to stop the village chief, without any hesitation about Xu Hengzhou, and said directly: "Village chief, why don't you let me move in too, you can see that this house is almost too big to live in."

The corner of the village chief's mouth twitched, and he wanted to slap his face with the white sugar, but he had experienced a lot, and his self-cultivation was not bad.And white sugar is so rare that it cannot be wasted.

Speaking of living alone, which educated youth doesn't want to live alone, Yuan Wei and Zou Sinan do too.But when they heard what the village chief said about the situation in that room, they gave up their minds. It's not safe for the two girls to live too far away alone.And what Xu Hengzhou mentioned first, even if you want to share a room, you should discuss it with Xu Hengzhou first.

What's more, in order to repair the house, Xu Hengzhou also took out sugar as a reward. If Jia Wenxing really wanted to build a house, he should mention it before Xu Hengzhou gave the reward.How could it be like this, everyone had agreed on everything, he rushed over to pick the peaches, and threw his master aside.

The village chief snorted and raised the paper bag in his hand: "Go and tell him."

Jia Wenxing's face froze, he went around Xu Hengzhou to find the village chief, knowing that Xu Hengzhou would not agree, and wanted to use the village chief to suppress Xu Hengzhou, but he didn't expect the village chief to be tricked.

Thinking about the Datong shop he saw just now, Jia Wenxing gritted his teeth, approached Xu Hengzhou and smiled apologetically, "Comrade Xu, look, it's not safe for you to live so far away with your brother alone, and I can still be your companion when I go. "

Xu Hengzhou twitched the corner of his mouth, and said with a smirk: "It's okay, I'm brave, I'm not afraid."

Jia Wenxing didn't seem to understand his refusal, and said to himself: "You have a child and you have to work, I will help you look after him. You didn't listen to the village chief, that many children drowned in the river. God your brother..."

"My brother is very obedient!" Xu Hengzhou interrupted him, and said sharply: "Comrade Jia, you don't need to worry about our brother's affairs, I hope you can pay attention to what you say, so that you don't offend someone one day and don't know how you died .”

"How do you talk?" Jia Wenxing said angrily, "Are you well educated, you can curse people to death every now and then, who are you!"

Xu Hengzhou sneered, didn't plan to talk to him anymore, greeted the village chief and Chen Fu, and was about to go into the house to pack his luggage.

Seeing this, Jia Wenxing stared angrily, and said with a stiff neck, "I'm going to live there. They're all educated youths. Why can you live and I can't!"

Xu Hengzhou stopped walking, he was so disgusted by him, he felt evil in his heart, and smiled deliberately: "Then you come, my brother likes to wet the bed at night, you can see if you have enough clothes and bedding."

Xiang Chen: "..."

Xiang Chen was dizzy from being hit by a big black pot. He glanced at Jia Wenxing who was stunned, gritted his teeth, and said loudly: "Yes, I wet the bed and pee every day. Come here, just to warm my bed."

The author has something to say: Xu Hengzhou: "Who do you want to warm your bed?"

Xiang Chen: "You you you!"

Solemnly declare, my star does not wet the bed.
