Everyone looked at Lin Shu in shock and dullness.

Including Secretary Zhao, Director Zhang, the branch secretaries and team leaders of each brigade, as well as Xu Juan and other educated youth.

However, Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief after speaking.

The originally tense body also relaxed.

Yes, my boyfriend is from Qinghe Brigade.

She exhaled again, showing an embarrassed but very determined smile, and said: "I'm really sorry, Secretary Zhao, my boyfriend is from Qinghe Brigade. Although he is in the army now, his family is still in Qinghe Brigade. So since I have already gone to the countryside, and it happens to be in Yaoshan Commune, of course I have to go to Qinghe Brigade and be with his family. "

Secretary Zhao didn't react for a while.

This girl said her boyfriend is in Qinghe Brigade?

In the past two years, there are some educated youth from the city who have dated local youths, but they are still rare, not to mention that this girl has just gone to the countryside and is looking for a boyfriend in the countryside.

Look how pretty this girl is, much more beautiful than the people in the painting.

How could her boyfriend be in their poor mountain valley?

But the girl herself said...

But he quickly realized that she said her boyfriend is in the army now. In the army, of course, it is different. By the way, he remembered that when Liang Shuhuai came to him, he said that this girl was a relative of Liang Dongquan and Hu Yingzhi in their brigade, and asked him to help arrange her to their brigade.

Liang Dongquan is also his acquaintance, an old party member before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the old branch secretary of Qinghe Brigade, but he suffered from illiteracy and failed to get promoted.

And his son is not a simple one.

He joined the army right after graduating from high school. It is said that he was recommended to the military academy for meritorious service within two years of joining the army. Now he has been promoted to deputy battalion commander at a young age.

But he is not young anymore, but he is still not married.

So many people are jealous of his marriage.

Everyone is still wondering why this young man is still not married at such an old age. Many people have gone to Qinghe Brigade to inquire and try to match him up.

It turns out that he has a partner.

And such a beautiful girl, both beautiful and gentle...

Secretary Zhao thought about it and finally came back to his senses.

But this time he came back to his senses, something was wrong again. He turned his head and looked at Zhou Darong.

And now Zhou Darong was still staring at Lin the educated youth with his eyes wide open!

Oh my God!

What did Zhou Darong say when he came to me with a box of cigarettes?

"Secretary, there is a comrade named Lin Shu in this group of educated youth. I heard that he is very educated. Isn't our brigade planning to set up a brigade primary school? We are planning to recruit her to be a primary school teacher in our brigade. Please help arrange her to our brigade. "

Secretary Zhao was very surprised at that time.

Give the teaching quota to a new educated youth?

He asked him, "I remember your youngest son is about to graduate from high school? Give a teaching position to a new educated youth? What's the trick? Yes, I remember your eldest daughter-in-law who just married is also an educated youth, right? This one won't be your youngest daughter-in-law, right?"

At that time, Zhou Darong laughed and said, "How can our family take up two positions? We can't marry this new educated youth. It was asked by my brother Dajin's youngest son in Xizhou City. Secretary, our commune's brick kiln factory this year was supported by brother Dajin. We can't not give him this face. "

Secretary Zhao didn't ask any more questions at that time.

But Zhou Dajin's youngest son asked for it, so he took so much trouble, and his surname was not Zhou... At that time, he thought it was Zhou Chengzhi's girlfriend...

Forget it.

Although Zhou Dajin had supported the development of their commune, it was not Zhou Dajin who came to him personally. Besides, the girl was Liang Jinxi's girlfriend. Now that he had said that, he could not force her to go to Shitan Commune?

He coughed and said, "Is that so? Is she Jinxi's girlfriend? In this case, although the educated youth's rural location cannot be changed at will, Deputy Battalion Commander Liang is on the front line to defend the country, so his girlfriend is of course another matter. Director Zhang will help with the procedures and arrange for Lin the educated youth to go to Qinghe Brigade. "

Director Zhang justJust as he was about to accept the offer, Zhou Darong became anxious.

How could he not be anxious? Zhou Chengzhi said that as long as he could help arrange for this educated youth Lin in their brigade, he could help him solve the employment problem of his youngest son who was about to graduate from high school in Xizhou City.

Their brigade was planning to open a primary school, but there were only a few places in total, and his family also had an educated youth daughter-in-law, so it was impossible for her to take up two places at once.

What's more, from what Zhou Chengzhi said, this educated youth Lin was clearly his person, so how come he had another partner in Qinghe Brigade?

He said anxiously, "Wait a minute. Lin Zhiqing, how, how is this possible? Is your partner really from Qinghe Brigade?"

Lin Shu turned to look at him.

Not only did Lin Shu turn to look at him, but everyone else in the room also looked at him.

Originally, everyone was very surprised that Secretary Zhou suddenly gave such a good opportunity to a new educated youth.

Now seeing his anxious look, they were even more suspicious.

You are not, are you, up to no good, or have any dirty thoughts?

Feeling everyone's gaze, Zhou Darong also realized that his words and tone were too hasty.

He smiled awkwardly and said, "Hey, Lin Zhiqing, don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand, I was just too surprised for a moment, thinking that Lin Zhiqing is a girl from a big city, how could she have a boyfriend from the countryside?"

Finally, he successfully turned the focus back to Lin Shu.

Everyone looked at Lin Shu again.

Not only Zhou Darong was curious, but others were also curious.

Lin Shu gritted her teeth.

This was just an excuse she made up in a hurry and ruthless. The more she said, the more mistakes she made, and she might be in trouble.

She clenched her fist, then looked up at Secretary Zhou and said confidently: "Secretary Zhou, why do you think we are going to the countryside? The loudspeaker is still ringing. The educated youth go to the countryside to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants and build the countryside together with the vast number of peasant comrades. What's wrong with me having a rural partner? Secretary Zhou, as a brigade secretary of a rural brigade, looks down on rural partners? What's more, my partner is still in the army and is a glorious comrade of the People's Liberation Army!"

Zhou Darong:...

Girl, what's the matter with this?

Secretary Zhao coughed again, smoothed things over for Zhou Darong, and laughed: "Secretary Zhou is just too surprised, haha, Secretary Zhou is also not clear, although our Deputy Battalion Commander Liang is from the countryside, he is still a cadre in the army and a college student, and he is still a very good match for the educated youth Lin."

He also laughed "haha" twice.

Then he went on to Zhou Darong, "Okay, if that's the case, Secretary Zhou, you should invite other teachers. If there are no suitable candidates, I will introduce two to you later..." Zhou Darong almost jumped up when he heard it. Is this taking advantage of the situation? He said unhappily, "No need. Since Lin Zhiqing doesn't want to, let's go back to the team and have a look. In fact, we still have several candidates. But Lin Zhiqing can also think about it again. If you change your mind, we welcome you to come at any time." Lin Shu smiled at him and said, "Thank you, Secretary Zhou." The matter was settled. Lin Shu was transferred to Qinghe Brigade again, and another female educated youth in Qinghe Brigade was transferred to Shitan Brigade. After the assignment, Zhou Darong watched Liang Shuhuai, the brigade secretary of Qinghe Brigade, lead Lin Shu, Xu Juan and two other male educated youths on the tractor and left. "This is weird." Zhou Darong muttered. Secretary Zhao glanced at him, and he jumped up in surprise. Then he leaned in front of Secretary Zhao and said in a low voice, "Secretary, can you lend me a phone to make a call in the commune? You know, it's not easy for us to run a primary school. It's all supported by the Dajin brothers in Xizhou. We have to inform them about the primary school teachers?"

Phones are not everywhere. Now the whole Yaoshan commune has only one phone, the commune's sending and receiving center.

Secretary Zhao waved his hand.

The people were let go, and he would not refuse to give this face. He said, "Go ahead, say hello to the Dajin brothers, and say that there is nothing we can do about this matter. After all, she is the girlfriend of Deputy Battalion Commander Liang. Deputy Battalion Commander Liang shed blood and sweat on the front line to defend the country. We have to take care of his family and give them support and convenience."

Zhou Darong:...

*****

Zhou Chengzhi received a call from Zhou Darong.

The Zhou family has a deep connection with the Lin family. They are both from Yuanhe County. When they arrived in Xizhou City, they were neighbors with Lin Shu's great-uncle's family.

Lin Shu's father is sentimental and often visits his uncle's family. Lin Shu also often goes to the old Lin family and gets to know the Zhou family.

Zhou Chengzhi is several years older than Lin Shu, but he has liked Lin Shu since he was a child.

It was just a little bit at first, but later he liked her more and more until he couldn't help himself.

In the past, Lin Zhaotong was a leader of the municipal party committee. Although the Zhou family was okay, it was far inferior to the Lin family. Lin Shu had no interest in him. Zhou Chengzhi could do nothing except be nice to Lin Shu. But two months ago, something happened to the Lin family, and he couldn't control his thoughts anymore.

"That Liang Jinxi is not an ordinary person. He joined the army right after graduating from high school. After two years, he went to military school again. Now he is the deputy battalion commander. That girl said she is Liang Jinxi's girlfriend and insisted on going to Qinghe Brigade. Even if I want to force it, it won't work. The commune can't let me..."

Zhou Darong nags, saying that it's not that I didn't try my best, I really tried my best.

Zhou Chengzhi held the receiver, veins popping out on his hand. After hearing the last part, he finally smashed the phone onto the landline with a "smack".

What object, what viceBattalion commander, he watched her grow up, how could she know Liang Jinxi, or have a partner! And she is still in that poor mountain corner!

Since he had made up his mind, he had been keeping an eye on the Lin family.

He soon found out that Li Huiru had arranged for Lin Shu to go to the countryside.

But when he knew that she had arranged for her to go to Yaoshan Commune, he felt relieved.

Because Yaoshan Commune was his hometown.

She going there couldn't make him feel more at ease.

He thought that if she didn't want to marry him now, she could just live in the countryside for a while, and he would always be able to persuade her to agree.

Who knew that such a change would happen!

He turned back and forth like a trapped beast, wishing he could go to Yaoshan Commune to take a look, but he finally ordered himself to calm down.

He walked back to the phone and called back. When the call was connected, he called Zhou Darong who was still on the phone. He said, "Please help me find out about Liang Jinxi and his family. Who are the people in his family? What kind of personality do they have? Also, since he has gone to military school and has become the deputy battalion commander, he should be quite old. Why doesn't he have a girlfriend yet? Does he have an old lover? And his conditions are pretty good in the countryside, right? Are there many people who want to introduce their daughters to him? Find out all these carefully for me, don't miss anything!"
