As the saying goes, if you don’t serve dumpling bowls at the beginning of winter, your ears will freeze off and no one will care.
Seeing the arrival of winter, the beginning of winter was Wednesday, and dumplings were prepared in the cafeteria. However, Lin Xiaoguang and the others did not go to the cafeteria. Instead, they returned to the "Youth Digest" editorial board and made their own dumplings in the small classroom.
Ever since he became rich, he has been eating in different ways. When he got tired of eating in the school cafeteria, he would go out to eat out. When he got tired of eating out, he would make his own food.
Not long ago, he bought a briquette stove.
No, I recently bought pots and pans, just to make dumplings for the beginning of winter.
There are quite a lot of people clamoring to come, but they are all from nearby areas, and there is nothing you can do if you are a little further away.
After class ended at about six o'clock, people came to the editorial committee classroom, made room for the room, and got busy. Some people chopped pork stuffing, some rolled out dumpling wrappers, some cut Chinese cabbage, and some
Sprinkle chili peppers in oil, and the remaining people will warm themselves around the stove, and then switch to others.
Winter is here, and there is heating in the dormitory, but there are only a few people there, and it is deserted. It is not as lively as being here with so many people.
While warming themselves by the fire, they started chatting about their trips to the mountains and countryside.
Lin Xiaoguang had no say in this aspect and just listened quietly.
"That year, after the great man issued the highest directive of 'educated youth going to the countryside', students from various schools in Peiping took to the streets one after another, held high slogans, beat gongs and drums, and held a massive parade to publicize the great significance of going to the mountains and countryside. I
I was greatly shocked during this parade with red flags flying and gongs and drums beating loudly."
Jiang Xuewen sighed with emotion: "Then I went to the Northeast and jumped in to settle in the Sandaogou brigade of Aihui Commune, Aihui County, Longjiang Province."
"You are like that in Peiping, and we are similar in Shanghai. I went to Beidahuang that time. Beidahuang is really too big and deserted. No one dares to go out and walk around. If you encounter a swamp, you will sink.
No one knows." Shang Xuemei still has lingering fears when she thinks of the swamp.
Qian Shengli sighed and started chatting too.
"Isn't our Runan very close to Jiaxian County? A great man in 1955 said that the experience of cooperative planning in a township is Dali Zhuang Township, Jiaxian County, Nanhe Province. When I went to the countryside, I always learned from big ideas.
Li Zhuang.”
Ding Kangmei laughed when he heard this: "We have never studied Dali Village, but in our Nanyun border area, many educated youths crossed the border and rushed to the battlefield in Myanmar, joining the ranks of glorious internationalist battles and supporting the world revolution."
There are more than ten people sitting here, half of them are seniors.
For example, the educated youth Jiang Xuewen from Peking, the educated youth Shang Xuemei from Shanghai, the educated youth Liang Zhendao from Liangshan and his wife Dang Hongxia, the educated youth from Runan Qian Shengli, the educated youth from Peking Ding Kangmei and the educated youth from Jianghan Fang Yanan.
We are so far apart from each other, and now we are all here together.
Liang Zhendao and Dang Hongxia are high school seniors, the former in 1947 and the latter in 48. They are neighbors in their hometowns and have a high school senior relationship. After going to the countryside, they both returned to their hometowns in the countryside.
Later they met and got married, and now their children are in primary school.
Liang Zhendao is a high school graduate who graduated in 1966, that is, the senior year of high school. He was facing the college entrance examination at that time. Compared with other students, he had actually passed high school for three years, and he was the most powerful when the college entrance examination was resumed.
However, just because Liang Zhendao's class had solid academic performance, they were given extra points during the college entrance examination. With the same score, if they were admitted to other classes, their score would be 20 to 30 points higher. It's hard to say whether they took advantage or suffered a disadvantage.
Dang Hongxia is a sophomore in high school, and they are married and will review together after the college entrance examination is resumed.
In the end, my husband was from Tsinghua University and my wife was from Peking University, which was also a good story for a while.
Shang Xuemei is a freshman in high school. She was born in 1949. She is the same age as the Republic of China. She studied in high school for one year and went to Beidahuang.
Ding Kangmei was born in the third year of junior high school and was born in 1950. The year he was born was the time to fight against U.S. aggression and aid Korea, so he was named after him. He also had a younger brother named Ding Yuanchao who was born in 1952. Both siblings went to the Nanyun Production and Construction Corps.
Fang Yanan is a junior high school student, born in 1951, from Jianghan. He attended junior high school for two years and went to the Beihu Production and Construction Corps.
Jiang Xuewen was born in the first grade of junior high school in 1952. He was just behind the third grade and had only attended junior high school for one year.
Qian Shengli is the same as him.
The rest are not the old third class, but the new fifth class and the latter five classes, but they are all educated youth.
There are two types of educated youth, those who jump in the queue and those who join the queue. Jumping in the queue means going to the countryside, and joining the queue means going to the Corps or the farm. There is a huge difference.
The former is in response to the call of great men. The places where people go to the mountains and countryside are also in remote areas, or counties with backward economic conditions and poor conditions. Regardless of their origins, all educated young people must participate.
Although the latter is also engaged in farming, it is managed in a paramilitary manner and has the function of "reclamation". At the same time, it has the purpose of re-employing urban youth and preparing all the people for military service. The political review is relatively strict, and only those with good family backgrounds can be approved to join.
Compared with the educated youth who join the queue, the life of the educated youth who join the queue is not much better.
First of all, in terms of food, two or three educated youths who jumped in line lived in a place. During the day, they got up early and worked late at night like the farmers. They came back to cook their own meals at night. The food they ate was not nutritious at all. In fact, their lives were harder than those of the farmers.
As for the educated youth who joined the field, due to paramilitary management, except for the cadres above the battalion level who were active military personnel, the other educated youth were peasant workers and lived a collective life, and of course they only ate in the canteen.
The second is accommodation. The educated youth who jumped in the queue lived in farmhouses with only kerosene lamps. The educated youth who jumped in the queue lived in dormitories, brick houses with electric lights.
It’s the holidays again. The educated youth who join the queue have about 20 days of family leave every year. They can go home during the Spring Festival. In addition, they have one day off every ten days during the slack season and one day off every twenty days during the busy season. As for the young people who join the queue, they also have family leave, but it depends.
The work in the field is not allowed, and it is the same as usual. Everything is based on the work in the field.
There is also labor. The educated youth who join the queue work collectively and receive a "salary". It is like eating from a "big pot". If you don't want to work, you can just hang out, but you can't be lazy in terms of time.
If production is reduced and the public grains turned in are deducted, if there is nothing left, of course there will be nothing to eat, and you will be the one who is hungry.
Shang Xuemei, Ding Kangmei, Fang Yanan, Jiang Xuewen, Xu Yiwei, Chen Yiming, Zhao Ziyu, and Bai Yang are the educated youths who intervened.
Liang Zhendao, Dang Hongxia, Qian Shengli, Gu Min, Jiang Qiao, and Wu Qian were all educated youths who jumped in the queue.
Generally speaking, the family conditions of the educated youth who join the queue are better than those of the educated youth who join the queue. They are either from a civil servant family or come from a clean background.
Lin Xiaoguang found it interesting listening to their chat.
This group of people are all from the Qingbei in Jin 77, the elite among college students. There are also Lin Weidong from Beihang University who are not here, Wang Weimin from Agricultural University, Li Ting from National People's University, Zhao Ziqi from Beihang University, and Zheng from Normal University.
Ying.
In the future, this will be his network.
As they talked, they began to argue over whether the earliest movement to go to the mountains and countryside was the young people from Peiping who went to Beidahuang to form a youth volunteer reclamation team, or the early educated youth who graduated from Dali Zhuang Township Middle School in Nanhejia County.
Some people don't argue, just say that your Corps and the educated youth on the farm are really good. You just have to eat from a big pot and have extracurricular activities. It's really enjoyable.
Some people are envious of the people Ding Kangmei talks about who can go abroad to support the Burmese revolution, and their blood boils when they think about it.
Everyone was in high spirits and the atmosphere was extremely lively.
Seeing that the dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork were cooked, thirty or forty dumplings were cooked in one pot, and each person only got three on average, but no one disliked them.
Before eating dumplings, Lin Xiaoguang suggested: "Thank you to the party and the country, thanks to Mr. Deng and Professor Zha Quanxing for giving us the opportunity to go to university."
"Let's sing a song, just sing about my motherland, a big river with wide waves..."
