Because his sister kept him for dinner, Gu Ao was idle and helped pick tea together while talking about the recent situation at home.

Gu Min was a little unfamiliar with his younger brother's diligence, so he asked casually: "Brother, I always feel that you are different. You looked down on farming in the past, but why did you suddenly work so hard today?"

"It's not easy to work hard, I'm still slower than you." Gu Ao wiped his sweat and told the truth.

Gu Min smiled and said, "It's time to be slow. I've been picking it for more than a year, and you've just gotten it."

"Actually, I also want to exercise myself. After two months of graduation, I will take you back to the city." Gu Aoxun told the truth step by step.

However, my sister didn't appreciate it.

"What?" Gu Min thought he had heard it wrong, and his voice suddenly increased by octave.

In just one or two seconds, she had a lot of possibilities and speculated: "Say! Are you not studying well in school and don't want to study anymore? See if I don't hit you! Is it easy for Dad to support you in school?!"

Gu Ao sighed and knew it was this reaction.

He could only explain slowly: "Sister, you underestimate me too much. In fact, my dad agreed to this matter, and I just came to inform you - when Director Qin found his dad, who helped him with the technical problem?

You can't understand these things, just talk about mathematics, physics and chemistry. The basics you have been in high school for a year can be taken as you can, and I will lose if you can.

I think the exercise is about to end and the country will definitely resume the college entrance examination. If you have been an educated youth, you may be able to compensate for your qualifications. Isn’t that equivalent to skipping the grade?"

Gu Min's excitement was slightly relieved, but he still didn't believe it: "The national affairs are so dangerous. Do you dare to make random predictions as a junior high school student? Do you know that the disaster comes from your mouth?"

Gu Ao knew that his credibility was too poor, so he could only find other excuses: "Hey, there are actually many inside stories here, you must not tell others - some of them are the news of Director Qin, and they also know from the special envoy. Don't ask more questions, if you don't believe it, just test my level first."

When I heard that it was the news that the Central Commissioner from the capital came out, my sister immediately believed it a little more.

Gu Ao saw it, but he was very unwilling to accept it.

He understood a little why when Ma Feng tried to fool the team into "Huaxia Yellow Pages" in 1995, he clearly thought that "the Internet will change all aspects of human life", but he wanted to use "this sentence was said by Bill Gates."

After all, in 1995, people knew who Ma Feng was, but Chinese people only knew that Bill Gates was awesome.

Similarly, 20 years later, the inferior chicken soup on the market began to falsify Ma Feng's quotations to cheat sales. Middle school students also tried hard to make up Lu Xun's quotations to cheat high scores.

Is a sentence right or not? Is it very credible? The truth and deduction content themselves are not important.

What matters is who said it from his mouth.

If Kevin Kelly predicts the future form of "pretending value transaction" in "Prosperity Model Battle Royale", someone will believe it. If it is predicted by ordinary people in East Zhejiang, no one will believe it.

Since the judgment that the college entrance examination is about to resume" was said by an authoritative person, Gu Min believed it.

She took the opportunity to think: Instead of guessing, it is better to take the test of your younger brother first.

She was suffering from having no books on hand and couldn't get into mathematics, so she took some high school physics and chemistry knowledge casually.

After all, math problems require calculations, and at least many conceptual questions can be described orally.

The results of the oral exam are of course as unsuspecting as taking Nokia with walnuts.

Gu Min lost completely.

"You can do it. Have you studied so hard in the past two years? Or has the quality of school education improved so much after shattering the ***?" Gu Min was surprised, but she was still very happy in her heart and completely believed Gu Ao's statement.

As for the fact that "the level of students in a certain class is suddenly much better than the previous class", it is very common during the ten-year indescribable period.

Because when the exercise is at a climax in a certain two years, students may be completely herding sheep. After the policy trend changes, the freshmen in the next two classes happen to be in the year of hard work, and may be even more awesome than graduates of the previous classes.

Gu Ao finally gained the trust of his sister and took the opportunity to tell the whole story:

"I think after you get your diploma in June, you will be able to go back. It is best to find some excuses for the past two months, such as reporting for physical discomfort, and applying, and then you can go through the process."

The country has allowed middle school students to go to the countryside, after all, because the city now needs too few planned labor positions, and scholars are unemployed even if they stay in the city.

Therefore, the country actually doesn’t care who goes to the countryside. As long as the indicators are met, the application process can be replaced at any time.

"Okay, then I'll say hello to the branch secretary today. After the two harvests before the rain, it should be a little empty. I'll write a written application at that time." Gu Min agreed carefully.

The brother and brother had a plan and the sun was about to set, so they went to the cafeteria to have dinner.

Because of Gu Ao's helper, Gu Min's harvest was 30% or 40% more than expected, so he had collected enough of the picking area required for the work points in advance and could be empty tomorrow.

Before going to the cafeteria, Gu Min first asked to go back to where he lived-

It was a small compartment in a farmhouse, only about 4 square meters. Apart from a partition bed, there was only a small wardrobe a little taller than the bedside table.

Usually, this room is shared by two girls Gu Min and Mu Mingsha.

The reason why Gu Min had to go back to the house first was to hide the can of meat, then he only put a few pieces of meat and a few taels of dried moldy vegetables in an oxidized and blackened aluminum lunch box, and then he dared to go to the cafeteria.

What she was afraid of was that she was "not showing off her flesh", so she took out two kilograms of meat at once, and the hatred value was too high.

While his sister was packing the meat jar, Gu Ao also remembered the tutoring book he brought, so he opened his schoolbag, took out a new set of "Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry Self-Study Series" and placed it on the bed.

"Sister, this set of books is from Hujiang Publishing House. Don't spread the following words: it seems that the above will rehabilitate the 'Baiju', so maybe this set of old books is more authoritative than the textbooks in previous years. If you are preparing to take the college entrance examination, take this self-study if you have time - don't show it to others!"

Gu Min subconsciously touched the book cover and asked intuition: "This book looks solid...it's a lot of money, right?"

Gu Ao said the truth: "It's 20 yuan a set. Fortunately, the factory gave my dad a bonus for several months. He doesn't want you to waste your studies."

Gu Min felt trembling when she heard this price.

Although she doesn't know when the college entrance examination will resume, since her father spent so much money, even to be worthy of the 20 yuan, he has to study hard.

For the fourth-level workers, this set of books is only half a month’s salary!

"In the future, if you have time in the evening, I will go to the tea shop to borrow the fire to see it. There is no electric light in this house."

After Gu Min said that, he hid the book properly and took his younger brother to the cafeteria.

...

Most ordinary farmers in the late 1970s cooked at home and seldom ate on farms or canteens in the clubs.

After all, it was not the big pot rice from twenty years ago.

However, units like tea farms are very different from those production teams mainly based on plains and paddy fields - because those communes and production teams produce their own food, and after handing over the public food, they keep their own food.

The tea farm does not produce grain, and all the output is purchased by the state, and then you will be given food and side food. If you want to cook, you have to receive grain from the canteen in the field according to the work points, which is very troublesome.

Especially the "Red Star Tea Farm" where Gu Min went to the countryside was built after eliminating the old and welcoming the new in 1971. It was originally an uncultivated mountainous land and there were no indigenous farmers. So almost all the members were educated youth and had to eat in the canteen.

It was dinner time when Gu Ao and Gu Min arrived, and the cafeteria was filled with people.

Many people make rice with aluminum lunch boxes, but they have to find an open space to squat and eat.

Gu Ao could only follow the local customs and experience the strange life experience of eating while walking.

But Gu Min had long been used to it. She held the lunch box while picking it up and looked around, and then saw the branch secretary of the production team.

She remembered the things her younger brother cared for, so she took the initiative to go over and say hello: "Secretary Wang? Is it convenient to speak?"

The branch secretary was a 40-year-old from the city, named Wang Pingshan. His hair was twisted and sturdy, his hands looked thick and short, his skin was rough and black, and he was wearing a cloth dress with high legs. He also had a tight cloth strap around his waist.

However, under the rough appearance, his eyes flashed with the sly slyness of the philosophical ones.

There was also a young man sitting next to Wang Pingshan, with similar eyebrows and eyes, his son, who was a little one or two years older than Gu Min. He didn't look rough - perhaps his father had escaped a lot of hard work by relying on the power in his hands.

Wang Pingshan smiled and said, "Xiao Gu, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

However, his son reacted quickly and stood up with a "huh" expression, with a happy expression at first. Then he saw Gu Ao behind Gu Min, and became a little confused again:

"Minmin, do you eat fish? Mingzhou hairtail, what's behind you..."

Gu Min followed the trend and introduced: "This is my younger brother, Gu Ao. He brought me something from Qiantang."

Secretary Wang's son immediately relaxed when he heard that the kid was Gu Min's younger brother, and he pretended to be like this: "It turns out that he is Gu Ao. My name is Wang Feng. If you have any trouble in Kuaiji in the future, you will find me!"

Gu Ao laughed at him without hesitation, and had already seen through Wang Feng's plan.

But Gu Min pretended not to understand and continued to follow the words: "Secretary, I went back from my family vacation last time and checked at Qiantang Hospital. Many health indicators were not good. I was picking tea in the afternoon and had a little heat stroke. Fortunately, my brother carried me down the mountain.

I discussed with my family and my father asked me to go back and finish high school, and asked my brother to give me the indicators for me - he has been naughty since he was a child and is not a good student, so both my family and I have given up on him. I will ask you to take care of you in the future."

Gu Min didn't care about Gu Ao's reputation, but just made up his brother's black materials, calling him an ignorant slut.

However, only in this way can outsiders believe more in the surface motivation of Gu's family to let Gu Ao replace Gu Min.

Under the people's views at that time, if there was a son and a daughter in the family, they would definitely give up their study opportunities to their son. If they did not describe their son's naughtiness and dislike of learning more ruthlessly, outsiders would definitely doubt their true motive for abandoning their children.

So, Gu Ao had to endure it.

As soon as Gu Min finished speaking, Wang Pingshan had not spoken yet, but Wang Feng couldn't help it. "This... how can this be! Minmin, if you work hard, I'll help you adjust it..."

"Wang Feng! Don't talk nonsense!" Gu Min was both ashamed and angry, and decisively interrupted Wang Feng's nonsense.

Gu Min also knew that Wang Feng had been pestering her this year, but she had not put any obvious pressure on her, so she felt that she was just hiding.

Anyway, I have been going to the countryside for a few years, so I will go back to the city once I have to endure it.

Unexpectedly, now that he has the opportunity to return to the city, he still has to obstruct him.

Wang Pingshan also reacted and glared at his son with resentment. Only then did Wang Feng remain silent.

"I'm not shy! So many people in the cafeteria listened. Is this a word in public? How can I convince the public in the future? Even if I miss a woman, I don't have the same style as you!" Wang Pingshan complained about his son fiercely in his heart.
