In the middle of summer, Yaning received another notice to attend the provincial women's conference as a representative of the city's Red Guards.
Yaning first reported to the Municipal Women's Federation. The head of the Municipal Women's Federation told her that the train had been scheduled. The train would be at 9 am on Monday. The representatives of the city would take the train together and tell Yaning to go home and prepare.
After everything was arranged, Yaning arrived at the train station at 8:30 AM on Monday.
In the waiting room, Yaning met the head of the municipal women's federation. Through her introduction, she got to know Sister Song and Sister Zheng, who were also representatives. The head of the Women's Federation said to the two young ladies,"I'll leave Xiao Zhou to the two of you. Take good care of him during the meeting. If anything happens, I'll settle the score with the two of you!" The two sisters smiled and assured the leader.
This was the first time Yaning had traveled so far, and she was going to the provincial capital as a representative for a meeting. Her heart was surging with holiness, solemnity, and inexplicable fear. She was only seventeen years old and did not understand politics. She was pushed onto the political stage by history. She was like an actress who could not find her place. She rushed on and off the stage and could not perform freely.
The representatives of the Women's Congress sat in a special carriage. The sisters and sisters from all walks of life cherished this rare opportunity to gather together and enjoy themselves. They sang, joked, and played poker. Yaning quickly blended in. Sister Song and Sister Zheng were only in their twenties, not much older than Yaning, so they had more to talk about with Yaning. Sister Song came from the flour mill in the city, and Sister Zheng came from the water company in the city. The two young ladies talked and laughed, making Yaning very happy. She giggled non-stop, and the two young ladies laughed at her. How could she laugh so much?
It was lunchtime, and the representatives lined up to go to the dining hall.
After passing through the long carriages, the representatives were inspected by the eyes of the passengers, especially Yaning, who was wearing a Red Guard armband and had a tender face. Yaning walked through the carriages without looking sideways. After lunch, she went through the inspection and returned to the special carriage.
When the car arrived at the provincial capital, there was already a bus waiting for them at the station to take them directly to the hotel.
Yaning was arranged to stay in the same room as the leaders of the Municipal Women's Federation. At night, the leaders were busy preparing their speech materials. Yaning sat on the bed and read her textbooks. When she was tired, she washed up and went to sleep.
The Provincial Women's Congress was held in the L Building. On the platform sat the popular provincial leaders Mao Yuanxin, Li Suwen, Wei Fengying, and other leaders. As the representative, Yaning was arranged to sit upstairs. Although she was far away, she still tried her best to watch these big shots who were only known in the newspapers and radio stations. She tried her best to take notes. She still had to convey the spirit of the meeting when she went back. This was a top political task.
It was her first time in the provincial capital. She heard that the scenery in Beiling Park was not bad. During the lunch break, Sister Song and Sister Zheng invited Yaning to go sightseeing together.
They took the loop bus to Beiling Park, toured the scenery, and took many photos. Seeing that it was almost time for the meeting, they hurried back.
As soon as they entered the hotel, they saw that the bus was already full of people. Yaning and her two sisters quickly got on the bus. There were a lot of people in the car, and it was hot and stuffy. Yaning stood in the aisle. She was also tired from playing. She felt chest tightness, her legs were weak, and her vision was dark. Seeing that there were no empty seats, Yaning was so young, and she was embarrassed to ask the elders to give up their seats for her, so she could only support herself.
Seeing that they were about to reach L Building, Yaning only felt her vision go black and her legs go weak. She didn't know what was going on.
The representatives all got off the car. The head of the Women's Federation and the driver walked over. The driver carried Yaning off the car and placed her on the bed in the lounge of the building. The head of the Women's Federation went out to buy a few ice cream sticks. Yaning had already woken up. After eating a few ice cream sticks in a row, she felt much better.
"This little girl is craving ice cream!"
Sister Song and Sister Zheng, who had rushed over after hearing the news, were also criticized by the head of the Women's Federation. It was such a hot day. What should they do about heatstroke? I told you two to take good care of Xiao Zhou!
Sister Song and Sister Zheng nodded in embarrassment.
