The Gathering of the Youth
The educated youth going to the countryside was a unique mark of this era, and it was also a beautiful memory in the hearts of all the educated youths of this era.
The friendship they had forged through this experience would accompany them for the rest of their lives.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, the hall on the second floor of Xueru Restaurant was filled with neon lights.
The hall had been decorated well and was bright and magnificent. At the front was a stage with a piano on it. On top of it was a red banner of the educated youth's class reunion.
The hall was already filled with the educated youths from Xiaoqing River of Fangshan who had come to join the party. On the stage, someone was singing a song, and there was someone playing the drum organ as an accompaniment.
The educated youths below were toasting each other and cheering from time to time.
Zhang Zheng and Han Chunming arrived late and rushed to the entrance of Xueru Restaurant.
"Chunming, it's all your fault. If it weren't for you dragging things out and not changing your clothes, we wouldn't have come here now.”
"What do you mean change? This bro is just a junk collector now. What's the use of wearing good clothes?”
Zhang Zheng and Han Chunming chatted as they walked to the hall on the second floor.
……
" There's an old saying in Fangshan. It's called a year of radish, two years of onions, and three winters of sesame seeds. You established educated youths cut the queue in Xiaoqing River and stayed for three years…"
Before the two of them entered the hall, they heard the voice of Secretary Yang of Xiaoqing River, who had cut the queue back then.
Zhang Zheng and Han Chunming looked at each other, then both made a shushing gesture and lightened their footsteps.
After entering the hall, the two of them warmly greeted the educated youths who cut the queue. At the same time, they found two seats and sat down.
However, just as the two of them sat down, Yang Huajian, who had unknowingly replaced them on the stage, suddenly pointed in their direction.
"Brothers and sisters, look who's here!”
Yang Huajian was wearing a white shirt and a pair of trousers today. He looked very energetic. The other educated youths who came to the party were also dressed up. It seemed that they had found the clothes they had hidden at the bottom of the box.
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes immediately followed the direction that Yang Huajian was pointing at. The hands of the two people who were grabbing things suddenly stopped in the air.
"I'm talking to the two of you. Why are you hiding? Secretary Yang is here today.”
Yang Huajian had a good relationship with the two of them. He was just joking with them.
However, Han Chunming panicked when he heard this. He quickly stood up and walked to the stage. At the same time, he said,
"I didn't hide. I was afraid of interrupting Secretary Yang's speech.”
Zhang Zheng saw Han Chunming rush up and sit on his seat unmoving.
He knew Han Chunming very well. He knew that he was a very loyal person who would be able to get along no matter where he went.
In contrast, he was the kind of person who kept a low profile and had a low presence among the educated youths.
"Yang Huajian, you're not being honest. If we're talking about hiding, you should be the one hiding the most. Brothers and sisters, I'm going to tell you a secret today.”
"On the 23rd of December 1973, on Yang Huajian's birthday, he stole a chicken from Secretary Yang's house to celebrate his birthday!”
When everyone heard this, they immediately burst into laughter. They could not close their mouths from laughing. The atmosphere in the hall was also stirred up at this moment.
On the stage, Han Chunming pointed at Mao Tu and said loudly,
"Damn map, how dare you laugh? Have you forgotten how you got your nickname?”
"We can remember this for the rest of our lives.”
"Peeing the bed! Everyone shouted in unison and laughed.
Su Meng stared at Han Chunming on the stage. She tilted her head and said to Cheng Jianjun,
"Look at Chunming's aura. She's very popular. When you came in just now, not many people greeted you.”
Su Meng was wearing a pink white-collar dress today. Her hair was tied into two ponytails with two bows on the rubber band.
She was dressed fresh and refined. She was indeed the most beautiful girl in their Xiaoqing River.
When Cheng Jianjun heard Su Meng praise Han Chunming in front of him, he felt like a bottle had been knocked over.
Although he didn't show it on the surface, the twitching eyebrows at the corner of his eyes showed that he was jealous and uneasy.
Cheng Jianjun was Han Chunming and Su Meng's neighbor in the same yard. He had liked Su Meng for a long time, but unfortunately, Su Meng had always ignored him.
He had always regarded Han Chunming as his biggest competitor. No matter what he did, he always wanted to suppress him.
Su Meng's favor for Han Chunming undoubtedly deepened his hatred for Han Chunming.
Back when Han Chunming was working at the state-owned bread factory, he was the one who used underhanded methods to cause Han Chunming to lose his job.
Seeing him on stage, Cheng Jianjun was very upset and began to secretly think about how to strike him.
