Childhood friendship is always precious. Being able to meet an old acquaintance as soon as getting off the car made Gu Qingyu feel much better, as she was affected by the farce in the family compound in the morning.

"Shitou, why are you standing there like an idiot?"

"Can't you see Qingyu is carrying such heavy luggage? Why don't you take it and put it in the car!" The person who spoke was the tractor driver Gu Qingshan, who was actually Gu Qingyu's cousin.

Gu Qingyu didn't bother to joke with Shitou and quickly stepped forward to greet him, "Brother Qingshan! Thank you for picking me up!"

"You're welcome. Knowing you were coming back, your grandparents got up early in the morning to prepare dinner. Let's hurry home!"

When Chen Mingzhu and the other three who were watching nearby heard this and saw that Gu Qingyu was about to get in the car and leave, they hurriedly called out to stop him.

"Qingyu, wait!"

"Can you accompany us to the Youth League Office first?" The others looked at Gu Qingyu a little embarrassedly.

The gap between ideal and reality is a bit big. When they arrived in the countryside, Chen Mingzhu and others were a little uncomfortable. Now they only knew Gu Qingyu as an acquaintance. It seemed that the other party was quite familiar with Ping'an County, so naturally they wanted Gu Qingyu to help.

Gu Qingyu slapped his head. He was so happy to see familiar people that he immediately forgot about these people.

"Okay, then come on up!" Gu Qingyu asked a few people to get in the car.

"Brother Qingshan, these are the educated youth who came to our countryside. Please help send them to the educated youth office first!"

Seeing the man carrying so many bags, Gu Shitou quickly stepped forward to help him load the luggage into the car. He curiously asked, "Which village were you assigned to? Why did you come here at this time of year?"

Several people followed Gu Qingyu onto the tractor, thanked Gu Shitou for helping with the luggage, and then began to speak.

"We were delayed because of something, so we came here just now. We were assigned to Xiaao Village!"

"Xi'ao Village? It's very close to our Gujia Village, only about ten to twenty minutes' walk away! You can come to our village to play in the future." When Gu Shitou heard that the place they were going to in the countryside was Xia'ao Village, he immediately and warmly invited them to come to their village to play in the future.

Gu Qingshan turned around and saw that everyone had boarded the bus. He reminded them, “Everyone, sit tight and hold on to the handrails!”

After saying that, the tractor rumbled and drove towards the Youth League Office, carrying a group of people.

Ouch, this is so bumpy! Luckily, Gu Qingyu subconsciously grabbed the handrail when Gu Qingshan was talking, otherwise she would have fallen.

Sure enough, she heard a few exclamations. Looking back, Gu Qingyu saw Chen Mingzhu and Chen Wanting had lost their balance and fallen onto the pile of luggage. Fu Wenjing and Wang Zhibing were lucky, as they reacted quickly and grabbed the handles in time to avoid embarrassment.

Seeing Chen Mingzhu and the others struggling to get up, Gu Qingyu quickly stopped them, saying, "Mingzhu, just squat down and don't get up. We'll be there soon!"

The main urban area of ​​the town is not large, and as they were talking, the tractor stopped in front of the Youth League Office.

"Put your luggage in the car first. We'll wait for you here for a while. Come and get it after you've said hello." Gu Qingyu said to the people in the car.

After thinking about it, they all agreed, so they followed Gu Qingyu's advice, got off the car, and walked towards the Youth League Office.

Gu Shitou leaned over to Gu Qingyu's ear and whispered, "Boss, I think we'll need to help send these people to Xiaao Village later."

Gu Qingyu raised an eyebrow at this guy and asked, "Why?"

"Hey, the tractor from Xiaao Village happened to be driven by the village chief's grandson yesterday, and it fell into a ditch and broke. Their village doesn't have a tractor to pick them up right now!"

"If we don't help them, they'll either have to rush over overnight or stay in town for one night and try to find a way to get over the next day."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyu felt that these people were a bit unlucky. The staff member from the Youth League Office who was responsible for sending them to the county town had an accident. After they finally arrived at the commune, the tractor that came to pick them up broke down.

Wow! This is bad luck!

Sure enough, after a while, these people walked out of the Youth League Office with their heads down, followed by a middle-aged man who looked like a clerk.

"Qingshan! Can you help me?" The man walked up to Gu Qingshan and handed him a cigarette with a smile.

"Please help send these educated youth to Xiaao Village. Their tractor is broken down, so they can't come to pick them up."

Gu Qingshan took the cigarette and said with a smile, "Secretary Wang, you're being too polite! Even if you didn't ask, I would have helped deliver it. These people and my cousin came here together by car, so it's just on the way!"

"Okay! Thank you!"

Secretary Wang was in charge of the assignment of educated youth. He was familiar with the tractor drivers in each village. Every year, these tractor drivers would pick up the people assigned to their villages.

"Okay, just follow this car to Xi'ao Village. Once you get there, the village chief will arrange accommodation for you." After saying that, he turned around and went back to the Youth League Office as if he had gotten rid of a big trouble.

Several people were a little depressed. To be honest, although Fu Wenjing chose to go to the countryside to avoid Chen Mingzhu, he also wanted to make a career in the countryside.

However, from the interactions along the way, it seemed that these educated youth were not popular. This gap was a bit difficult for him to accept, not to mention other people.

Gu Qingyu didn't care what these four people felt. At this moment, her mood was indeed getting better and better.

Looking at the scene that was becoming more and more familiar in her memory, she knew that she was getting closer and closer to home. She would soon see her grandparents and her friends whom she had not seen for many years.

Just thinking about it makes me happy! Happy!

After dropping the four people off in Xia'ao Village, the tractor, emitting black smoke, drove towards Gujia Village in the afterglow of the setting sun.

They were getting closer and closer. Gu Qingyu stood on the tractor and saw from afar two hunched old men standing under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.

"Master!"

"Milk!"

"I'm back!" Gu Qingyu put his hands together and put them to his mouth, then shouted loudly towards the front.

When the tractor stopped under the old locust tree, Gu Qingyu jumped down and ran towards the two elderly people. She hugged the little old lady who was running towards her. She said with a slightly choked voice, "Grandma, I'm finally back!"

"You silly girl, you finally come to see me, an old lady!" As he said that, Li Dahua hugged Gu Qingyu and slapped her hard on the back a few times.

Ouch, Gu Qingyu pretended to be hurt by the slap and cried out a few times in cooperation. Judging from the way the old lady slapped her, she seemed to be in good health.

Gu Qingyu sniffed, suppressed the tears that were about to well up, and let go of the old lady.

Looking at the grandfather who was always silent next to her, she wanted to speak but didn't know what to say. The grandfather who was circling around her and her grandson hugged her.

"Grandpa, I'm back!"

"Okay, okay, I'm glad you're back. Go home quickly!" When had the old man ever been so close to his grandchildren? Now he didn't know what to say. He just kept asking his little granddaughter to go home.

Li Dahua couldn't stand her husband's behavior, so she gave him a cold look and walked home holding Gu Qingyu's hand.
