Rebirth in 1976 begins with educated youth

In one week, the Spring Festival of 1978 will arrive.

It’s finally time to say goodbye to Genpei and his fellow villagers!

Looking at the familiar valleys, fields, paths and mottled adobe houses in front of me...

It seems that only then did I realize that every plant, tree and brick here is so sentimental and unforgettable.

This is the first stop for every educated youth to enter society. History and fate have tied their youth together.

Who can forget that in those wasted years, the hardships of joy, and the sincerity of suffering, there are endless stories and endless friendships...

After being washed by many storms and washed away by the waves, the young and childish baby face that he had when he walked out of school has now been replaced with a maturity and stability that is extremely incompatible with his age.

Looking back on the past, I want to cry, but I want to laugh even more, but they have never regretted it, let alone regret it. I believe that history will leave an unforgettable page for them...

Zhou Haiyang and the other educated youths who received the university admission notice were so excited that they stayed up all night last night and got up at dawn this morning.

I made an appointment with Liu Yan and Pei Xiaohong on the phone yesterday to go to the county town and have a good gathering with the educated youth in the county town.

……

Uncle Liu, who is an educated youth, is still as usual. When he has nothing to do, he likes to sit at the door of the cowshed, watching the old buffaloes and smoking his hookah "Gulu, Gulu".

Over the past year or so, the tremendous changes in Yuanping Village have completely overturned the old man's outlook on life for decades.

Many things happening in front of him made him feel incredible and even confused him: How could the world change so easily?

For a long time in the future, he still remembered the time when he told the educated youths the history of his revolutionary family and remembered the bitterness and sweetness, as well as the leadership position of the poor and lower-middle peasants that he was unshakable in the past ten years and for which he was extremely proud.

……

After everyone left the educated youth spot, they went to Fan Yanping's house to say goodbye.

Fan Yanping gave each person a cane made of bamboo from a hundred-foot terraced field: "No matter where you go, no matter where you are in many years, as long as you see this cane, you will think of Genpei who once fought..."

At this point, Fan Yanping was choked with sobs and couldn't say the next words.

At this moment, he was more excited than anyone else: Yuanping Village became famous throughout the province in this college entrance examination!

Moreover, the Fan family, including the son-in-law, suddenly had three college students.

The son-in-law and daughter actually both won the top prize in liberal arts in the province's college entrance examination, and the third son, Fan Jianye, was also admitted to Ningcheng Forestry University.

……

After leaving Fan Yanping's house, Zhou Haiyang came to the nunnery alone.

It is located in a valley not far from Genpei's educated youth spot. It is truly a paradise unlike any other in the world.

Over the past year, he has been coming here once a month to visit the two newborn nephews who were fostered here for Wang Qiang.

With mountains, flowing water, and picturesque scenery, everyone will immediately feel relaxed, peaceful, and indifferent when they arrive here.

Although the amiable old nun is already in her 50s, her slender figure and beautiful face make her look like she is about 30 years old.

Walking like a fragrant breeze, graceful and graceful.

When she met Zhou Haiyang, the nun reluctantly said to him: "Wang Qiang's uncle fostered the two super-born children here. Can you wait until they are in elementary school before letting them leave here...

Zhou Haiyang nodded silently, handed her another sum of money as one year's child support, and said thank you!

Knowing that Zhou Haiyang was leaving Yuanping, the kind nun took out a pack of old tea tree roots that had been stored for unknown years from the house, handed it to him, and asked him to take it to the elderly at home, saying that it has a very good effect on softening the cardiovascular system. .

When parting, the nun put her palms together on her chest and said to Zhou Haiyang: Amitabha!

……

What everyone couldn't imagine or even shocked was that Niu Er, who was usually a heartless speculator, was actually moved with sincerity when he said goodbye to everyone, with snot and tears and his hands constantly touching each other. He wiped it on his face randomly.

I'm afraid only he himself understands the excitement, sadness and difficulties in his heart.

Zhou Haiyang wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say.

Finally, they simply found several packs of Peony cigarettes with tin foil from the three brothers of the Fan family who were seeing off a group of educated youths, and stuffed them all into him.

Niu Er took the cigarette with trembling hands, trembling lips, but could not say a word.

He couldn't help but hugged Zhou Haiyang tightly, nodded vigorously, and kept patting Zhou Haiyang's shoulders.

……

It wasn't until a few years later that the crime of speculation was removed from the revised criminal law, and Niu Er regained a new lease of life.

At this moment, Zhou Haiyang would never have imagined that when Liu Yan was serving as secretary of the town party committee in Yaolin Town, Boxing County, Huaining City, Niu Er went to Yaolin specifically to find him.

At Liu Yan's suggestion, he established the first private enterprise in Boxing County in Yaolin.

It has made an indelible contribution to building the deep processing base of agricultural and sideline products in Yaolin and Boxing counties.

Then, when Liu Yan served as Secretary-General of the Huaining Municipal Party Committee, Niu Er was already an outstanding private entrepreneur in Huaining City.

These are all later stories.

……

Today, the sky above Yuanping is cloudless and the sun is shining brightly.

There are two mountain eagles above the head, with their wings spread out and circling up and down in the sky, as if they represent all life in a radius of dozens of miles and are seeing off these educated youths.

At this time, azaleas were blooming on both sides of the path. Everyone waved the walking sticks given by Fan Yanping in their hands and ran straight down the once-familiar path. They suddenly felt indescribable relaxation and joy all over their bodies.

When we arrived at Tianyuan Commune, it was almost noon.

"My stomach is growling with hunger. Let's eat something before we leave." An educated youth suggested.

"Yes, I got up early in the morning, ate early, and my chest was pressed against my back." Another educated youth agreed.

"How about we eat meat soup? This is the most famous snack in Tianyuan Commune, and you may not be able to eat it in the future. Meat soup is like salty rice. The more you eat it, the more you like it." A female educated youth suggested.

"Okay! Let's have meat soup!" Zhou Haiyang said.

Then, a group of people entered the busiest street in Tianyuan Commune and walked into a restaurant on the street.

……

After a while, the steaming hot meat soup was served!

"The meat soup is still very hot when it comes out. You can only use a spoon to scoop a little bit into your mouth." The female educated youth reminded everyone. It seemed that she had definitely eaten it more than once before.

"Hmm! I didn't expect that with such a small sip, I could feel the delicious taste of the soup."

"And the taste is just right, not too salty or too bland, just right for my taste."

"I chewed the meat slices. They were tender and tender. They looked a little fat, but they didn't taste fat at all."

"It's so torturous! I can't wait to finish it off immediately..."

……

"Why is the meat soup in Tianyuan Commune so fresh and delicious?" an educated youth couldn't help but ask.

"To make the meat soup taste so delicious, the key is to work on the raw pork." The shopkeeper on the side heard this and said immediately.

He continued: "First wash the pork, then cut it into thin slices and smash it with a clean wooden stick, then soak it in water, soak it for a certain period of time, and finally mix it with powder.

After processing these steps, the meat soup is made.

Then wait for the water to boil, put it into the pot, take it out after 5 minutes, add the pork bone soup that has been cooked in advance, plus chopped green onion, sesame oil and seasonings..."

……

While everyone was chatting away, a middle-aged man walked in from the door of the small restaurant.

Zhou Haiyang immediately stood up and smiled at the man: "Hello, Dr. Yang!"

"Yo! Yes, it's you. Why are you here?"

"These are all educated youths from Yuanping. Let's prepare to go to the county together."

"Yuanping Village has become famous this time! More than a dozen people were admitted to college at once, and I heard that there was even one who ranked No. 2 in liberal arts in the Jiangning Province College Entrance Examination."

"Dr. Yang, that's him, his name is Zhou Haiyang." An educated youth pointed at Zhou Haiyang and said.

"Congratulations, congratulations. It turns out you are Zhou Haiyang. You are the first person in our Yongfeng County and even Huaining region to go to Qinhua University."

At this point, Dr. Yang paused and seemed to remember something. He searched the crowd with his eyes: "Hey! Where is the educated youth who came to me to check for hepatitis and pneumonia? Why did he..."

Zhou Haiyang smiled awkwardly: "Haha, Doctor Yang, he is now the secretary of the county party committee, and this time he was admitted to Yenching University."

"Ah?! So it turns out that the man who both won the top spot in the provincial college entrance examination is him?! No wonder he looked familiar after reading the newspaper..."

"That woman is his wife." The female educated youth on the side interjected.

When Dr. Yang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "I can't imagine what he was like back then... More than two years have passed by in a flash.

I can completely understand how he felt at the time, but his approach seemed a bit too much.

He was obviously very greedy and wanted to eat fat meat, and he even said he had hepatitis..."

"At the beginning, I was desperate and had no choice but to take this last resort." Zhou Haiyang shook his head with a wry smile.

……

[Author's digression]: "1002889 + Rebirth in 1976 Begins with Educated Youth" is a long serial official novel that is completely different from the promotion of children from poor families...
