Not all educated youths can take the college entrance examination. There are quotas. The village recommends a quota. Only with a letter of introduction from the village can you register.
At that moment, her mood hit rock bottom.
It would be even harder for her to get a letter of introduction from the village!
After the meeting, all the educated youth excitedly gathered around Niu Shengyun. On the one hand, they wanted to find out more information, and on the other hand, they wanted to please him.
Niu Shengyun was surrounded by everyone. His eyes fell faintly on Wen Qiuning, who was a few meters away, and left after a few seconds.
Wen Qiuning looked at him and understood the profound meaning in his eyes.
She was disgusted, angry, but helpless.
But she wanted to leave this place, she wanted to leave desperately, and the strong desire in her heart made her hold back her nausea and fear, and kept waiting in her seat.
When all the educated youths left, she and Niu Shengyun were the only two people left in the conference room.
Niu Shengxun was sitting calmly on the stool, looking at Wen Qiuning, waiting for her to speak.
Wen Qiuning took a deep breath, met his eyes, and asked calmly: "Captain Niu, what are the specific recommendation criteria for the quota recommendation you mentioned?"
Niu Shengyun picked up the teapot and took a leisurely sip of tea. He spat the tea leaves into the teapot and said slowly, "It's a standard. Of course, whoever is the best recommends who."
Wen Qiuning asked again: "What is the standard of excellence?"
Niu Shengyun smiled proudly, "I see everyone's daily performance. I know who is excellent and who is average."
Wen Qiuning: "..."
Since the evaluation was based on the personal subjective standards of Niu's birth luck, she had nothing to say.
But Niu Shengyun said: "Wen educated youth, this quota is in short supply! How many educated youths are there in your educated youth center and how many quotas are there? You are good-looking and have a flexible mind. You can calculate this clearly. Account!"
Niu Shengyun left the educated youth spot with a smile on his face with satisfaction.
Wen Qiuning was still sitting in her seat, feeling cold from her body to her heart, which made her shiver.
She returned to the forest guarding cabin dejectedly, sitting on the grass outside the house, looking at the endless forest.
In the late autumn season, most of the branches and leaves on the trees have fallen. There are only densely packed branches in disorder, and occasionally a few withered yellow leaves hanging precariously on the branches.
Those noisy birds didn’t know where they were flying. Their chirping could not be heard, only the whistling sound of the wind passing through the forest.
At this time, she was only thinking about one thing, how she could get out of here.
A week later, she went back to the educated youth center again, hoping to learn from them about the recommended quota in the village.
But after she arrived, she realized that the atmosphere in the educated youth spot had become solemn.
Everyone wanted a spot, everyone guarded the others like thieves, and she couldn't get a word of truth from them.
Reluctantly, she came to the village hall again to ask about this matter.
As soon as the other cadres in the village office saw her coming, they all consciously walked away, leaving only her and Niu Shengyun.
Niu Shengyun looked very regretful, "Wen Zhiqing, I have already made up my mind about the quota. You still need to practice."
Wen Qiuning panicked for a moment and blurted out, "Who are the quotas given to?"
Niu Shengyun looked at her from head to toe, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious, "How can I tell you this? Wen Zhiqing, I used to think you were smart, but now it seems that you are just like this. You still need to hone yourself for a few years!" "
Wen Qiuning was wearing clothes, but she felt that his clothes had been stripped away by his eyes. She tightened her collar and ran out of the village office in a hurry.
She wanted to report him, but she had no evidence!
Furthermore, even if there is evidence, can it overturn Niu's fate?
Niu Shengyun has been the captain for more than ten years, and his influence is everywhere in the village. For her to report him is like hitting a stone with an egg.
After another restless week, she went down the mountain again to the educated youth spot.
Some educated youth said angrily: "Educated youth Wen, you have been so diligent when you came back recently. Is there any good thing going on?"
Knowing that they would not reveal anything, Wen Qiuning still asked without giving up for the slim hope, "Have you heard anything about the quota?"
Everyone gave her a mocking smile.
On this day, Wen Qiuning came to the village office again.
She put all the more than 80 yuan she had saved over the years into an envelope and handed it to Niu Shengyun.
She begged: "Captain Niu, please help me. This is a little bit of my kindness. Please accept it."
Niu Shengyun opened the envelope, took a look at it, and threw it to Wen Qiuning with disdain, "Wen Zhiqing, you and I, please don't pretend to be confused because you understand!"
Wen Qiuning picked up the envelope that fell on the ground and said with fear: "Captain Niu, if you think it's not enough, I'll ask my family to send me some more."
"Wen Zhiqing!" Niu Shengyun has no patience anymore, "If you don't have what I want, then don't come!"
On the way back, Wen Qiuning wanted to cry for a while.
Growing up, she had no support and anyone could bully her.
Now that she has surrendered to the evil forces, why are you still refusing to let her go?
Thinking of Niu Shengyun's wretched face, Wen Qiuning felt sick and wanted to vomit!
After more than ten days of this, three educated youths had received letters of introduction from the village and returned to their hometowns to sign up.
Wen Qiuning was anxious, but she had no idea what to do.
She was like a person walking on the desert, almost dying of work. A clear spring appeared in front of her eyes. She ran towards the clear spring with joy, but no matter how fast she ran, she could not reach it.
I can only watch the clear spring, out of reach!
Walking back dejectedly, I encountered the oncoming Niu Shengyun.
"Wen educated youth!" Niu Shengyun smiled proudly, "You heard it, three educated youths have already gone home with letters of introduction to sign up. I have two more places here that have been promised to people, and there is only one place left. , I wonder if you still want it?"
Wen Qiuning lowered his head, "..."
Niu Shengyun said: "You see, registration starts in one week. So many people are vying for this quota. If you don't want it, I will give it to someone else. The deadline is this Sunday. You can think about it yourself." .”
That month was the most contradictory and helpless time in her life.
Finally, she saw through it!
There seemed to be two paths in front of her, leave or stay.
If you leave, you must sacrifice your body.
If you don't want to, then you have to stay.
In the short term, she could find temporary peace by staying in the village.
What can happen later?
How long can she seek stability in this village? !
She doesn't want to stay here all her life. As long as she wants to leave, she must listen to Niu's fate.
In other words, in this village where good luck can only dominate the sky, she has no choice but to compromise!
