Turning her head and looking at Zheng Weijian, Zhou Juan knew that this man should actually be regretting it now.

"I regret it." Zhou Juan whispered.

"If we didn't count Zhou Lina, we should have been able to take the steel factory recruitment exam."

"If we pass the exam, we won't be officially employed."

After all kinds of calculations, it turned out that she had actually had a chance and was so close to getting the quota legally.

It's a pity that even if they knew about it, there was no way to sign up, and there was no time for them to stay in the city.

Zheng Weijian didn't say anything. When he learned the news the day before departure, he was really heartbroken.

If you can pass the exam, you can easily become a formal worker in the steel plant.

Zheng Weijian is very confident in himself. Although he doesn't know which department he will be assigned to in the future, he is certain that it will be an office job.

But now that everything has been smashed, look at the environment in front of you and think about the environment of the factory. It's really like the sky and the earth.

The former still has a future to look forward to, but the latter has no hope at all.

Thinking of what his mother said that night, she said that if he insists on being with Zhou Juan, his life will not be good.

At first he thought this was a way to intimidate people, but now that he thinks about it, it's all true.

Looking at Zheng Weijian who was silent, Zhou Juan felt uncomfortable, knowing that she was very dissatisfied with her.

Zhou Juan was also in a bad mood. She was really groveling in all kinds of ways along the way. She was the one who took care of things along the way.

As for Zheng Weijian, he really takes good care of his family, but he doesn't understand or know anything at all.

If possible, Zhou Juan really didn't want to talk to him. When she was in her hometown, no matter how she looked at Zheng Weijian, she thought he was all kinds of good.

As a result, Zheng Weijian's shortcomings were exposed after leaving home, and Zhou Juan began to doubt whether he could take care of her well?

Glancing at Zheng Weijian's empty package, I felt that his family didn't prepare much for him.

I don’t know if things will still be mailed in the winter. Otherwise, it would be really good for Zheng Weijian to take good care of himself, let alone take care of her.

No, she doesn't have to expect that her family will think of her and mail her something.

But Zheng Weijian is the treasure of the Zheng family. No matter how displeased the old couple is with her, they will not stop sending things to Zheng Weijian.

The more Zhou Juan thought about it, the more she felt that this was a test given to her by the Zheng family, just to force her away.

Zhou Juan thought she had seen through the thoughts of Zheng Weijian's parents and became even more determined to perform well no matter how hard it was.

Otherwise, Zheng Weijian would not take her with him when he returned to the city.

After a while, Zhou Juan once again firmly decided to continue the relationship with Zheng Weijian.

At this moment, no one had the energy to curse. After riding trains for several days and nights, there were trucks and oxcarts. It could be said that there were all kinds of rushes along the way.

It also makes many educated youths have no expectations for their future life. Those who have connections with their families want to talk to their families about the situation and, if possible, let them go back as soon as possible.

As for the educated youth who had no connections at home and did not expect their parents to think of them, their eyes were filled with confusion and loss.

The old educated youth in the room didn't hear anyone yelling outside, so he opened the door and pointed to the rooms of the male and female educated youth, "You guys can find a place to live in."

It is not easy to build a house here in the northwest, but there are many cave dwellings.

There is no problem in finding an abandoned cave dwelling that can be used, and it will be a suitable place for the educated youth who are coming this time.

Yes, don't look at Zhou Juan and others who dislike the educated youth who came early. In the same way, the old educated youth also dislike these new educated youth.

They are all children who have not been severely beaten by society. After staying here for a year and a half, they will know what is good and what is good, and those who have connections will return to the city.

If there is no relationship, just find a local to marry, or take a local wife.

Life here is really hard, and it would be really hard without the help of local people.

Educated youths all know that people in the village despise them as educated youths and feel that they can't do anything and instead have to compete with them for the scant food.

The old educated youth also hate the new educated youth, they are the ones who are holding us back.

The old educated youth briefly introduced the situation, while a few people looked at the empty cave dwelling and asked, "That bathroom?"

"On the inside."

"By the way, you should arrange the sanitation work in the cave dwelling yourself."

After giving some pointers, the old educated youth said, "We eat separately. If we want to cook, we all allocate our time."

What? No, why should they cook by themselves? Girls are better off. They can more or less cook when they are at home, but boys are less likely to know how to cook.

Especially after knowing that this place uses firewood for cooking, everyone is devastated, not to mention that bathing here is a problem.

"If you want water, you have to fetch it from the river five kilometers away."

"But I see, isn't there a small stream?" Although it was already night when they arrived, they also knew that there was a stream, and if there was a stream, there would be water, so why couldn't they use it nearby?

The old educated youth glanced at it and said, "That's for farming, not for daily use."

What everyone heard is that it is not for daily use and has to go to such a far place to fetch water.

I had learned from textbooks that it was difficult to use water on the Loess Plateau, but I never thought it would be so difficult.

"How about going to carry water?" Zheng Weijian knew that he would endure hardship this time, but he did not expect that it would far exceed his expectations.

Even the water for food and drink has to be traveled so far.

"Of course you have to carry the water yourself. By the way, you can go to the village to find a carpenter to make a bucket."

"There is no running water here." The old educated youth looked at the young faces and couldn't help but think of himself when he came here in the first place.

I couldn't help but give me some advice, "Take a good rest these two days and get familiar with the surrounding situation. You will be very busy next time."

Although the harvest is not very good, there are really many things that can't be done.

After sending the old educated youth away, everyone looked at the dirty cave dwelling, and some people burst into tears.

Some people began to complain, "They knew we were coming, but no one helped clean up."

"Who can help you clean it up? The water here has to go far away." One person said, "Forget it, I plan to discuss it with the old educated youth. I would like to go to their place to stay temporarily today."

“Otherwise there is really no way to move in.”

Of course, everyone agreed with this idea, but there was a key issue. It really wasn't just what they wanted.

"Will they agree?" one person said timidly.

"Then I'll give you money." A person who looked like he had good conditions opened his mouth and said he could give him money.

Although I didn't know the situation of this person's family, and I didn't think she was rich by looking at her clothes, she opened her mouth and gave her money, which really calmed many people.

The result was just as she thought, the old educated youth didn't want money, but they could exchange it for gifts. Some people couldn't bear to part with it, so they just slept on the dirty kang with their dirty clothes.

Although the Zheng family said they didn't want to care about him, they knew that a poor family could get rich, so they prepared some money for him.

Zheng Weijian successfully sneaked into the cave dwelling of an old educated youth to rest. As for Zhou Juan, he didn't care about her life or death.
