Chapter 1931 Passerby Female Educated Youth 73

This good mood continued until Zhang Yu took a boat to the farm. The last time Zhang Yu set out for the farm, the whole family was very sad.

This time, although they are still a little sad, they are not that sad. The Zhang family knows that Zhang Yu will come back again next month, and then the family will be reunited.

Yao Ying knew that Zhang Yu was a steady kid, but she still repeatedly reminded Zhang Yu, "Keep a low profile."

"Don't let anyone notice." You really can't relax until the last moment, otherwise you never know where a shameless person might appear and use all kinds of shameless tricks.

Zhang Yu hummed, hugged Yao Ying tightly, and then hugged Zhang Wei who came from the research institute specially, "Dad, you should take care of yourself too."

Even if Zhang Wei didn't say it, Zhang Yu knew that he worked really hard in the research institute. Even if the people on the other side of the research institute said it was nonchalant, as if arranging a job for Zhang Yu was not a big deal, Zhang Yu knew that as long as the word got out, there would definitely be a lot of people willing to work in the research institute.

Zhang Wei certainly knew the reason, so he worked extra hard and seriously, "Dad, you must take good care of yourself, otherwise I will be worried."

Zhang Wei hummed, "Everything will be fine over there."

At this time, the crew shouted on the deck, "The ship is about to open the window. All educated youth please get on board, and parents who are seeing you off please get off."

No matter how reluctant parents are to part with their children, they can only bid farewell to their children with tears.

Yao Ying watched the boat carrying Zhang Yu disappear from her sight, and tears fell uncontrollably.

At this moment, there was a lot of crying at the dock. Yao Ying was not in a good mood to begin with, and now she was in an even worse mood, with tears streaming down her face.

Zhang Wei hugged Yao Ying tightly and said, "Don't cry, Xiaoyu will be sad."

"And my daughter will be back soon." Zhang Wei whispered in Yao Ying's ear.

Yao Ying certainly knew, "But I really couldn't control my tears."

Who can control it? Really no one can control it. Yao Ying sobbed for a long time before she slowly adjusted herself.

Zhang Wei was relieved when he saw that his wife had stopped crying. After all, if she continued crying, her eyes would become red and swollen, and he would be the one in trouble.

Also, if his wife continued to cry, he was really worried that he would not be able to hold back his tears.

"My daughter has only been there for half a year, but she has become much darker and her hands are also much drier."

"When she was at home before, our daughter didn't know so many things, but look at how skillfully she works." Zhang Wei thought of Zhang Yu coming back to work this time, and she was very skilled.

Yao Ying thought about her daughter's behavior during this period and felt really reluctant to let her go. "It's okay. It will be over soon."

As the speed of the ship increased, everyone could no longer see their family members who had seen them off and were walking back to the cabin one after another, and the sound of crying gradually became louder.

I originally thought that I had adapted to life on the farm, thinking that it was at least better than going to the countryside as educated youth. But after returning this time, when I compared myself with my brothers and sisters who stayed in the city to work, I realized that the gap was really huge.

It would be a lie to say that they had no thoughts, but they also knew that if they did not return to the farm and stayed in the city, where would their food come from? Their household registration was already registered with the farm.

Go buy expensive grain? That's even more impossible. Once or twice is fine, but if it happens more than once, will the other brothers and sisters have no objection?

Parents would also have opinions. Generally speaking, most of the educated youth who went to the countryside to serve as educated youth, except for those who signed up on impulse, were children who were not favored in their families. As for the favored children, their parents would generally find ways to keep them.

Zhang Yu was in a very happy mood, but when she heard the crying around her, she of course restrained herself and did not show any intention in this regard, otherwise it would be too eye-catching.

Fortunately, after crying for a while, everyone gradually stopped crying. After all, crying could not change the fact that they were educated youth. In particular, one crew member said, "At least you can go home for the New Year every year. Many educated youth have not been home for many years since they left home."

As soon as these words were spoken, the crying, which was not much to begin with, stopped again. People just like to compare themselves. Knowing that there are people who are living a worse life will of course make them feel much better.

They stopped crying. As there was still some time left before the night rest, everyone started talking about interesting things that happened during the New Year, and Zhang Yu just listened quietly.

Zhao Tong found Zhang Yu very clean, "Xiao Yu, how are you this Spring Festival?"

"Within two days after I returned home, my father fell ill and had a major surgery." Zhang Yu was not trying to be pitiful. He was telling the truth, because this Spring Festival he really spent more time taking care of patients and, of course, preventing the Wang family from causing trouble.

This time, the four of them were sitting together. Zhao Tong and the others had not expected such a big thing to happen in Zhang Yu's home. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay. The doctors said my dad is really lucky. If it had been discovered later, his condition would have most likely gotten worse. This is a good thing."

"Besides, I can take care of my dad while I am on vacation. Otherwise, I will have to take leave to come back, which will delay things."

Zhao Tong and the others were stunned after listening to Zhang Yu's explanation, "That's right." Zhao Tong was really embarrassed.

Zhang Yu yawned and took out something Yao Ying had prepared from her bag, "My mom prepared this for me."

Most people have already eaten dinner at home. Even if someone brings something, it is just some melon seeds and peanuts. Not many people will bring even that.

Zhao Tong and the others were a little surprised to see Zhang Yu actually brought some rice balls, "You didn't eat at home."

"I ate a little, but my mom was worried that I would be hungry in the middle of the night. After all, it would take us around nine o'clock to get to the farm, and then it would take us at least eleven o'clock to get to the team headquarters after the bumpy ride."

By the time we got there, it was almost time for lunch, but I was so hungry that I couldn't eat. "I made some rice balls recently, and put some fish floss in them."

"Fish floss?" Zhao Tong was stunned. "I've heard of pork floss, but this fish floss?"

"It's made of fish. My dad isn't in good health, and I've been going fishing recently when I'm free. We eat too much fish at home, and we get tired of it."

Someone nearby heard that there were people who were tired of eating fish. He moved his mouth and wanted to say something, but gave up.

If someone else said this, they might say he was showing off, but since the person who said this was Zhang Yu, it really wasn't showing off.

"I thought that pork could be made into pork floss, and fish could also be made. When my dad is busy, my mom can make some rice balls with some pork floss and some diced vegetables. It would be both meat and vegetables, and good for my dad's health."
