Chapter 27: The Competition Turns into an Awards Ceremony
Lin Jingshu and Jiang Xiucheng were also called up by the brigade leader. Leaders from the commune's educated youth office and police officers carrying banners also came to the front of the stage, instantly turning the competition into an awards ceremony.
From the leaders of the commune's educated youth office to Brigade Leader Xie, everyone gave their speeches and thoughts on this joyous occasion. They all praised Yun Shu and the others, saying that they were role models for educated youth and examples for contemporary young people. This made the children standing on the stage smile stiffly, their faces blushing awkwardly.
At this point, selecting a junior announcer is no longer so important, after all, there are priorities.
The commendation and award ceremony was finally over, half an hour later. But Yun Shu and the others' mascot duties weren't finished yet. They were then made to stand obediently at attention between the leaders of the commune and the educated youth office, as well as two police officers.
Three male educated youths held paper certificates of merit, while two girls stood in the middle, not only holding their certificates but also raising a banner with the leaders. Below the stage, someone kept shifting left and right with a camera, snapping several photos before announcing the pictures were finished.
These are promotional photos that the police station wants to take. They will be displayed on the bulletin board, which will be a great way to publicize their achievements.
Yun Shu and the others were promised that they could go to the county town in a few days to pick up a photo as a souvenir. Upon seeing this, the leaders of the commune and the educated youth office hurriedly discussed with the police station that they also wanted two photos, both as souvenirs and for publicity purposes.
There was no need to be shy or reserved about such a good thing, so everyone readily agreed, and it was destined that dozens of copies of one photo would be printed.
There's nothing we can do; it's all about reputation and political achievements.
Who wouldn't want it? Who wouldn't like it?
Captain Xie and the other members of the village's production team saw off the leaders. Before they left, these leaders, who should have already investigated the backgrounds of Yun Shu and the others, gave them some "kind" encouragement.
There was no other way; they were trying to avoid the limelight, but apart from Lin Jingshu, who had no one backing her, the rest of the team members were still financially secure.
Those with quick wits could tell from the attitude of the commune leaders that Yun Shu and the others must have powerful connections that they couldn't access. So, after thinking it over, they became even more polite to Yun Shu and the others.
Finally, once all the leaders had gotten into their cars or ridden their bicycles and left, we could finally get back to today's topic.
Although everyone's enthusiasm was still focused on those two banners after this ordeal, today's events couldn't end so abruptly.
The two banners were left at the brigade headquarters by Captain Xie, who was half-forced and half-pleased; he definitely wanted to keep them to save face and show off. Fortunately, Yun Shu and the others still had a paper copy of the 'Progressive Youth' certificate, so they didn't bother with it too much.
……
It's clear that Yun Shu's connection with her best friend played a role; her friend's protagonist aura had deeply enveloped her, and at such a crucial moment, she even received a buff that seemed to fall from the sky.
Originally, aside from the three girls who didn't perform well and sang along with Cui Cui in a folk song, it was still uncertain whether the job of announcer would belong to Yun Shu or the first little girl who performed.
But now Yun Shu has taken advantage of the fact that there was no rehearsal and the program was not submitted in advance to temporarily change the program details. With the commendation from the commune and the county police station, the result is obvious.
The three girls only received a few votes. Cui Cui received slightly more votes, around twenty, while the remaining votes were split between Yun Shu and Xie Minmin, who was the first to go on stage. Yun Shu even received more than twice as many votes as Xie Minmin.
The job of a broadcaster was a success for Xie Yunshu.
-
With the major events now settled, Yun Shu was in high spirits.
Yun Shu and her best friend hugged each other, jumping and skipping with joy, while the three male educated youths also laughed quite flamboyantly. What could they do? They were at that age, young and exuberant. They were composed but not lifeless; if they couldn't hold back their excitement, it was perfectly acceptable.
Yun Shu and the others didn't notice that many older women in the audience were looking at them with shining eyes. But thinking about it, it made sense. It was normal for educated youth to marry people from the places where they were sent to work, and Yun Shu and the others were in the prime of their youth.
The Fengsheng Brigade has a good atmosphere and is free from coercion and scheming. But that doesn't stop them from taking a liking to Yun Shu and his friends, thinking about making these good young men their daughters-in-law and sons-in-law.
Of course, they couldn't use any underhanded tactics. Not only was the brigade leader watching, but after this incident, Yun Shu and the others would definitely leave an impression on the educated youth office and the commune.
If they dare to have any bad intentions, the brigade leader and the commune can make them lose all motivation.
……
After Yun Shu and her friends finished celebrating, the people at the educated youth settlement said they wanted to have a celebratory dinner together.
However, to be honest, these kinds of gatherings are happening a bit too frequently. It's like how friends take turns organizing a meal in later interpersonal relationships, which can be quite burdensome.
Yun Shu didn't really want to eat with a large group of people anymore. It wasn't that there were any conflicts or anything, but there was a sense of constraint in crowded places.
Lin Jingshu and the others shared similar thoughts. Chen Ming, quick-witted, put his arm around Chen Hua's shoulder first, saying repeatedly, "Next time, next time. The autumn harvest starts tomorrow, so let's all take a break and have a good meal after the busy farming season!"
Who can eat like this? Even the landlords don't have surplus grain.
These gatherings are called celebrations, but in reality, each of them has to bring out their own canned food and meat to add to the dishes. Once or twice is fine, but after a while... they start to feel the pinch.
Ultimately, their revolutionary friendship wasn't that deep; the five of them didn't have that kind of feeling when they ate and helped each other.
……
After being rejected by Chen Ming, Chen Hua realized that, indeed, these past few days, thanks to the arrival of the new educated youth, they had been able to have extra meals and eat better food almost every day, which had made them somewhat accustomed to it and even dissatisfied.
They might not be willing to let them help with the celebration. After all, Lin Zhiqing is also learning to cook. Wouldn't it be better for five people to eat together than for more than ten of them to eat together?
Unbeknownst to Chen Hua, he had also routinely removed Yang Yue from the list of new educated youth.
Some things don't need to be said explicitly to save face for both sides. The older educated youths were silent for a moment after hearing Chen Ming's words, but they quickly recovered and chatted with Chen Ming, saying that they would definitely have a good meal after the autumn harvest.
Thanks to Chen Ming's social skills, the atmosphere quickly returned to normal.
Yang Yue, who had been sidelined, watched everyone's reactions with a cold eye. When she caught sight of a few old educated youths who looked somewhat resentful and were muttering to themselves with their backs to Yun Shu and the others, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
