【Double Xun】Know what is like

The trucks come from far away, and they are very particular and orderly when they stop at the door of any unit.When getting into the car, Xun You had 380 yuan on his body, and he was carrying a quilt and bed sheet behind him.There were seven or eight people sitting in the car, most of them were intellectuals, and they all behaved very politely, so they vacated a seat for him.

The truck drove farther and farther, almost going to the end of the sky. When everyone was drowsy, the driver stepped on the brakes: "Here we are, get out of the car!"

A group of people were locked behind the car, and they didn't fully see the vast grassy beach outside until they got off the car.The iron gate in front of them has been rusted away, and a cracked wooden board is hung on it. There are four words on the wooden board, which read "XX Farm".The first two words were already blurred, and Captain Zhao didn't give them a chance to see clearly. He shouted "Follow me!" and led the team to the only building on the farm that could accommodate more than 50 people.

That is their future dining hall, auditorium, and gathering place for listening to leaders' speeches.

There were about twenty people of various ages present. They belonged to the eighth team, and Captain Zhao led them to work and educate them.Everyone has a specially issued gray uniform with their job number written on it. After all, it is more convenient to record work points with the job number than to remember their names.

That day was the first time Xun You saw Xun Yu.

Xun Yu was younger than many of the people present. He was only in his early thirties. His hair was trimmed very cleanly. He was slender and fair and wore rimless glasses.After many people put on their uniforms, their gentleness was overwhelmed, but Xun Yu always had an independent attitude, which inevitably made Xun You take a few more glances.

When the dormitory was allocated, the two became roommates. Xun Yu turned to him and smiled kindly: "What's your name?"

"Ok?"

"I can't call you NO.16."

Xun Yu pointed to the job number printed on Xun You's chest, smiling warmly.

"My name is Xun You." Xun You stretched out his hand, "I was an engineer in the Machinery Bureau before, how about you?"

"My name is Xun Yu, and I'm a teacher at the No. [-] Middle School in the county."

This is the self-introduction of the two protagonists. Before the story begins, we can introduce a little background and a few characters.The story takes place in the wilderness of the northwest fringe region. Several characters who are about to appear on the scene are ordered to come to this farm to open up wasteland and receive education.

In addition to the two protagonists, there are four people who are slightly related.

The first person is Pickpocket, who graduated from junior high school. Compared with the intellectuals around him who are often college students or even Ph.D., his academic qualifications are somewhat inferior.

The second man is called a strong man, a high school dropout, he is the strongest man in the eighth team, he can repair cars and do carpentry.

The third person, let's call him Professor Feng, used to be a professor at a certain institution of higher learning, specializing in botany.

The fourth person is Captain Zhao. He was also educated on the farm and was dismissed from the trial because of his positive behavior. Now he stays on the farm to lead the eighth team.

Ok, now we can start telling the story.

In this farm, there shouldn’t be any good stories in the first place. Everything started out very plain, as plain as the bowl of wild vegetables they ate in the cafeteria every morning.The eighth team gathered the whole team after getting up every morning, went to the cafeteria to eat, and then each received a shovel or hoe, and Captain Zhao led them to the border of the farm to open up wasteland.

To be precise, the farm has no boundaries, and the farm can grow as much as they can open up and plant.In addition to the food released above, the food grown by the farm itself is their additional supplement.But by the time of the eighth team, all that could be dug out was sand, and the soil was extremely loose, and there was no food to grow.

But they still have a certain quota for each person every day. After the quota is completed, the work points will be recorded on the blackboard beside the wasteland, and those who have not completed must stay until they are completed.

After working continuously for several days, Xun You found that Xun Yu's body was very weak. He often broke out in cold sweat, his lips were pale, and he waved his hoe lightly, unable to dig a little soil.Two days ago, he brought two wild vegetable dumplings to the cafeteria for him. By the time Xun Yu came back, the dumplings had already dried up, so Xun Yu could only sit by the bed and swallow the water.

Two days later, Xun You felt that this was really not an option, so he quietly ran out to find him while everyone was eating in the cafeteria.The wasteland was some feet away from where they lived. Xun You had two sweet potatoes in his pocket, and it was completely cold when he arrived.

It was just autumn, and the farm was on the edge of the northwest, and the wind had already blown a bone-chilling coolness.Xun You saw Captain Zhao standing beside Xun Yu from afar, with the moonlight staring coldly at them from above his head, so he quickly hid behind a haystack beside him.Amidst the hoarse shouts of the wind and sand, Captain Zhao suddenly hugged Xun Yu's shoulders. Xun Yu was obviously frightened, and immediately raised his hand to push Captain Zhao away, but Captain Zhao stared at his earlobe for a while, and still yelled at him suddenly. He kissed on the side of the ear.

Xun You saw Captain Zhao go to the blackboard, pick up the chalk in the sand, and rewrite the work-point grid under No. 15 into a full grid.

After Captain Zhao left, Xun You came out from behind the haystack.At that time Xun Yu was squatting on the ground in a daze, Xun You walked up to him and patted his shoulder: "Hey."

Xun Yu was taken aback, his fair face was full of panic and panic, Xun You helped him up, took out a sweet potato from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand: "I only have this tonight, eat it quickly."

The two walked side by side in the ridge of the field, Xun Yu lowered his head to peel the sweet potato, and ate the already cold sweet potato in silence.

"Is your health not good?"

Xun Yu stopped chewing, and soon resumed eating.

"I'll stay and help you in the future," Xun You suddenly stood still, "Don't let Captain Zhao touch you like that."

The grassy beach was surrounded by the sound of wind, and Xun You saw Xun Yu's slightly red eyes under the cold autumn moon. Xun Yu swallowed hard, embarrassment hidden in his usual gentle voice: "Not a few days ago, tonight is the first day." Second-rate."

This explanation is actually superfluous, it seems that Xun You's face is very ugly, which makes Xun Yu feel sorry for him, because Xun You is really very upset.

Such things often happen on the farm, just to get some convenience in food, clothing or labor.Xun You is not a person whose water is clear and there are no fish. He has seen it and understands it very well. Sometimes he even took out a few cigarettes for Captain Zhao to smoke, but it is always difficult for him to connect such things with Xun Yu.

In Xun You's impression, Xun Yu is a lotus hanging alone in the mud. Although he has not yet understood Xun Yu's character, he can only infer his character from his appearance.
