Chapter 687: Those who plant trees will be cut down by those who come after them

Wu Mei nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't act impulsively."

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi have such good conditions but have not yet gotten married after dating for such a long time.

With her conditions, she needs to consider things more carefully, so she won't be so impulsive and get married so early. She will definitely observe more and won't joke with her life.

Seeing that she listened carefully, they didn't say anything more.

As for Wei Wei, they no longer cared about her at all, because the college entrance examination would be resumed this year. If she could take the college entrance examination, and Wu Mei fell in love, then nothing they said would be of any use.

After all 300 piglets were caught, Wei Wei also got busy with production.

This year, the Red Star Brigade is preparing for a big work. With so many more pigs and an extra tractor, everyone in the brigade is as busy as if they have been injected with chicken blood.

Of course, there was also an element of intentionality on Zhang Xinwang's part. Zhang Xinwang felt that so many things happened last year because these educated youth were too idle.

They must be kept busy, so that when they are tired of work, they will have less time and energy to cause trouble.

Therefore, Jiang Qi couldn't be lazy and review more or consolidate his knowledge.

Because Zhang Xinwang was particularly strict in cracking down on the educated youth this year. There was nothing they could do about it, because it was them, the educated youth, who had caused trouble in the past two years.

Others plant trees for future generations to enjoy the shade, but they plant trees for future generations to cut down.

The tree that was cut down was the one planted by their ancestors, leaving them without even a place to cool off.

Not only Jiang Qi, Wei Wei and Liu Jiaojiao were miserable, but the people at the Youth League Institute were also miserable.

Who would have thought that Zhang Xinwang would be so strict this year? If you want to be lazy, that's not impossible. You will be arranged to open up wasteland or carry manure. Of course, you can also build a reservoir.

But these three things are not jobs that humans can do. No, it should be said that these three things are not jobs that these educated youth can do.

Although the work points for land reclamation and reservoir construction were high, they could not bear the intensity of the labor.

As for carrying manure, although it is not that tiring, they can't stand the smell.

In order to avoid clearing wasteland, building reservoirs and carrying manure, everyone was forced to roll up their sleeves.

Looking at the unprecedented unity and hard work of the Red Star Brigade, Zhang Xinwang was very satisfied. As expected, people still need to be controlled, otherwise they will be too idle and have time to cause trouble.

But now this thriving and prosperous scene is so pleasing to the eyes.

In fact, the reason why I am so tired is not just because of Zhang Xinwang's idea. There is really a lot of work to do this year.

As more and more cattle are raised every year, the wasteland will naturally be opened up year by year, and the arable land will naturally increase.

Therefore, this year's labor tasks were already quite heavy and there was a lot of work to do, but with Zhang Xinwang's supervision, they didn't even have room to be lazy.

In June, the families of Yu Xi, Liu Jiaojiao, Jiang Qi, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin all received information that the college entrance examination was almost confirmed, but the specific time was unknown.

Everyone was more excited and more anxious about this. They also revealed a little bit of information to Wu Mei, saying that the college entrance examination might be resumed, but they didn't know the specific time.

Wu Mei was extremely excited when she heard this. She was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She really didn't expect that the college entrance examination would be restored one day.

Wu Mei excitedly grabbed Liu Jiaojiao and Jiang Qi's hands and asked, "Can I tell my family about this?"

Hearing this, Jiang Qi secretly glanced at Wei Wei, with an expression of "as expected" in his mind, but he said nothing.

Liu Jiaojiao was still a little hesitant, "Let's wait a couple of days. Our family doesn't know the exact time either. Let's wait for a while and see what news our family gives us.

Since there has been no notice from above, it would not be good if this matter were to spread.

Because we don’t know what the outcome will be. If we don’t recover by then, our excitement will be in vain, and we might even get into trouble.”

Wu Mei thought so too. Although she was very excited and wanted to share the news with her family, she still held back.

"Then I'll wait and not cause you any trouble."

However, since then Wu Mei has become more serious about her studies. She works during the day and studies at night without any delay.

Seeing Wu Mei's perseverance, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't know what to say. It would be unfair if such a person didn't succeed.

Wu Mei not only studied, but also supervised Lei Jiawei to study as well, but she didn't say the reason.

The question was about the arguments that Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao had used to persuade her to study.

Although Lei Jiawei was very confused, seeing that Wu Mei and several others were learning, he also started to learn as he was a person who would listen to advice.

In the tense work and study atmosphere here, this year's new educated youth also came here.

Looking at this large group of educated youth, the people in the Red Star Brigade didn't know what to say, and ten more people came.

"Why are there more every year?"

After the masterpieces of last year's group of educated youth, people in the Red Star Brigade no longer had a good impression of the educated youth.

Therefore, they were somewhat dissatisfied when they saw so many educated youth coming, and no one welcomed them.

In the past, when the educated youth came, because those wealthy educated youth could help the brigade generate income, and with the arrival of talents like Xiao Xuemu, the people in the Red Star Brigade still had some expectations for the educated youth.

Even though some people were not so welcoming, they were not so dissatisfied. But now there is only dissatisfaction.

Looking at so many educated youth, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi both felt that it was a real novel written during that period.

There are a lot of educated youth in every novel, and with so many young people going to the countryside across the country, they really didn't see that many.

There are so many other places, but the Red Star Brigade is a famously wealthy brigade. People should be flocking to such a brigade, so there should be a lot of people.

At the beginning, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi did not have a strong sense of the wealth of the Red Star Brigade, but after going to other brigades several times to buy things, they finally saw how wealthy the Red Star Brigade was and how good the conditions were for a rural area of ​​that era.

In fact, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn’t know that the Red Star Brigade had only gradually become prosperous in recent years.

Although some gates were famous before, they were only famous in the city and nearby areas, and their reputations were not that great. In other words, life was slightly better than that of other brigades, but there was still hunger.

Later, the farm was slowly built up, but it only made a little more money and we were still hungry.

It was only after more wasteland was reclaimed that we could barely make a living. If we were not picky, we could just make a living by eating.

But the Red Star Brigade also encountered problems, such as the situation where poultry was not raised.

In this case, not only did they not make any money, they also lost a lot. It was only because of the unity of the Red Star Brigade that they managed to get through it.

In addition, I have had the help of Xiao Xuemu in the past few years. If Xiao Xuemu had not helped me buy piglets, raising sows by myself would also be a very high expense.

Because the winters here are so cold, keeping warm costs money, and food also costs money, so we really can't supply too many sows.

The source of piglets is so scarce and limited, the scale of the Red Star Brigade's breeding farm cannot be expanded, and the specifications are limited.

It is only with Xiao Xuemu as a plug-in that the Red Star Brigade's breeding farm can become bigger and bigger.

Once Xiao Xuemu leaves, the scale of the Red Star Brigade's farm will be reduced by more than half. Although it will not shrink back to its original size, it can only barely maintain half of its current size.
