"Captain, how could you do this? We didn't do anything wrong."
Jiang Xiaohong was frightened when she heard that she was going to be punished. She didn't expect that she just wanted to gain some benefits for herself, but in exchange for Such a result.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice was trembling, "We just hope to get better treatment. We educated youth are also human beings and have our own rights."
She This pitiful look made the few educated youths standing with her filled with indignation.
"Captain, we just want to fight for the rights we deserve. What's wrong with this?" an educated youth standing with Jiang Xiaohong mustered up the courage to say.
"Yes, we educated youths also have dignity. We are not here to suffer." Another educated youth also agreed.
These educated youths have been fascinated by Jiang Xiaohong's pitiful appearance.
But the villagers didn’t buy it.
"You educated youths have dignity, but then we farmers have no dignity? Do you think you are here to be uncles?" a villager said angrily.
"It's just that you educated youths can't bear any hardship, and you still want this and that. It's a beautiful idea." Another villager also said with dissatisfaction.
"That's not what we meant. We just want to be treated fairly." Jiang Xiaohong defended.
"Fairness? After you educated youths came here, what food and housing were not provided by our villagers who lived frugally? What kind of fairness do you want?" said an older villager sadly. .
"Do you think farming is an easy job? Let me tell you, without the hard work of farmers like us, you wouldn't even be able to eat." A villager who looked relatively strong said angrily.
"Okay, stop talking." The captain waved his hand to stop the villagers' angry condemnation.
He looked at Jiang Xiaohong and the other educated youths coldly and said: "You educated youths go to the countryside to receive re-education, not to enjoy themselves. If you can't realize this, then you are not suitable to be here. Here.”
"I will truthfully record your behavior in your files. I believe that the Educated Youth Office will give you a satisfactory answer."
"You can go to the Educated Youth Office for fairness and treatment you want. I believe They will be happy to arrange work for you."
At this point, the captain smiled coldly.
Originally, he did not want to repatriate these educated youths. After all, if they repatriated them, the Educated Youth Institute would definitely arrange for more educated youths to come over.
Instead of accepting more educated youth, it is better to maintain the status quo.
After all, these educated youths are young people, and he is quite experienced in dealing with them.
"Captain, we were wrong, we will never dare to do it again." When Jiang Xiaohong heard that it was going to be recorded in the file, she turned pale with fright.
The records in the archives are very important to the educated youth. It is not only related to their performance evaluation in the countryside, but may also affect their chances of returning to the city in the future.
"Yes, captain, we really know we were wrong. We will work hard in the future and will not make these demands again." Other educated youths also begged for mercy.
"Captain, we were just confused for a moment, please spare us this time." An educated youth said with a cry.
"We promise that we will receive re-education in the future and will not have any inappropriate thoughts." Another educated youth also hurriedly promised.
Seeing the panic of these educated youths, the captain's expression softened slightly.
"Now that you have realized your mistake, accept the punishment! If it happens again, it will not be as simple as deducting work points." The captain warned sternly.
"Yes, captain, we remember it." The educated youth nodded one after another.
Compared with being sent back to the Educated Youth Office, they felt that this punishment was not bad.
Isn’t it just a little dirty and tired? Endure it and it will pass.
It would be difficult to deal with being sent back to the Educated Youth Office.
According to their understanding, the results of those who were sent back to the Educated Youth Office were not very good.
"Oh, by the way, everyone whose name is on this petition should go back and write a self-criticism, and they will do so in public at the grain drying field tomorrow."
The captain said lightly .
These guys want to cause trouble, and if they are not severely punished, others will definitely follow suit in the future.
"Huh? Do you want to criticize in public?" Jiang Xiaohong and other educated youths suddenly turned pale after hearing the captain's words.
To review in public, this is simply a great shame and humiliation for them. "What? Not willing? Then you can continue to make trouble until I am satisfied." The captain sneered.
"No, no, no, we are willing. We will definitely write a review and review it in public tomorrow." Jiang Xiaohong and other educated youths quickly promised.
They knew that now was not the time to bargain. If they angered the captain again, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Okay, let's go to work!" The captain waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.
The educated youths dispersed quickly as if they had received an amnesty. They were all dejected and completely lost their previous arrogance.
The villagers looked at their leaving figures and shook their heads.
“These educated youths are really ignorant. The captain has been tolerant of them.”
"Even if you don't even look at where this place is, you really think of yourself as an uncle."
"It seems that the captain's punishment this time is still too light. It should be more focused so that they can remember it for a long time." . ”
The villagers were talking quietly, very dissatisfied with the behavior of the educated youth.
Jiang Xiaohong and other educated youths came to the pig farm with heavy hearts, ready to accept punishment.
They know that this incident will become a stain in their lives.
"Xiaohong, what do you think we should do?" an educated youth who participated in the petition asked with a sad face.
"Yes, Xiaohong, you are the one who took the lead in this matter. You have to find a way!" Another educated youth also said anxiously.
Jiang Xiaohong's face was also ugly. She did not expect that things would develop to this point.
"What else can we do? We can only do what the captain said." Jiang Xiaohong said helplessly.
“But it is so embarrassing to criticize in public.” A female educated youth said with a tearful voice.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who made us do the wrong thing? We can only blame ourselves for being short-sighted and offending people we shouldn't offend." Jiang Xiaohong sighed.
"Okay, everyone, don't be too sad. Let's take this as a lesson! From now on, we must keep a low profile and stop causing trouble." Jiang Xiaohong comforted.
After hearing Jiang Xiaohong’s words, the educated youth nodded their heads one after another.
They know that this incident is indeed their own fault.
The smell of the pig farm is not very good. They couldn't help but frown when they first came here.
In the pig farm, the smell of pig manure and feed went straight into the nose, making Jiang Xiaohong and other educated youths unable to help but cover their noses.
"Everyone, get ready to work. Don't forget, we have a mission today." An educated youth reminded.
Although they were reluctant to do so, the educated youths still picked up the shovel and started cleaning the pigsty.
“Hey, the smell of pig manure is really strong.” An educated youth complained while shoveling pig manure.
"Yes, I have never done such dirty work before." Another educated youth also said with a grimace.
"Just bear with it, who made us make a mistake?" Jiang Xiaohong wiped the sweat from her forehead and said helplessly.
"Xiaohong, do you really want to review the situation in public tomorrow?" A female educated youth asked worriedly.
"The captain has said it, what else can we do? We can only do it." Jiang Xiaohong sighed.
“But, this is really embarrassing.” The female educated youth’s eyes were red and she seemed ready to cry at any time.
"It's better to be embarrassed than to be sent back. You don't even think about it, what records will be left in our files if we are sent back? How will we return to the city in the future?" Jiang Xiaohong advised.
The educated youths fell silent after hearing Jiang Xiaohong's words.
They knew that Jiang Xiaohong was telling the truth. Although it was embarrassing to review in public, compared with the bad records in the file, this was already considered a good thing.
"Okay, everyone, work harder, finish your work early, and go back early." Jiang Xiaohong cheered up and encouraged everyone. (End of this chapter)
