At the beginning of the year, the Sun family was still hoping that the matter of going to the countryside would slowly pass, thinking that since everyone was unwilling, they would not be forced to go to the countryside.

Who would have known that a few months later, going to the countryside would become a big trend. Instead of disappearing, it would intensify.

What worries the Sun family even more is that even if they want to get married now, it's hard to find a suitable one.

Gu Xiuxiu glanced at her daughter and sighed: "This is not the first time she has come to the door. The tone of the conversation has become stronger every time. I am afraid that after a while, the showdown will be directly carried out in every household."

Sun Shumei pursed her lips and said, "Just go, Mom, I'm not afraid of going to the countryside."

Gu Xiuxiu slapped her on the arm: "Is it fun to go to the countryside? It's just hard work and tiredness. You are a girl, who knows..."

The words were not finished, but everyone present understood the meaning.

Gu Xiuxiu said helplessly: "Originally, I thought that since I was going to the countryside, I would let Shumei join your production team. With Adong and the others taking care of her, I, as a mother, could rest assured. Who knows that it wouldn't be possible at all."

"The sub-district office has said that this cannot be arranged only if our production team is willing to accept it. The southerners must go north and the northerners go south. Otherwise, there is no point in going to the countryside."

Gu Xiuxiu didn't understand what it meant. She only thought about her daughter, who was born and raised in the south. How could it be better if she traveled all the way to the north?

Looking at the destinations she had already visited, Gu Xiuxiu was even more reluctant to part with them.

The originally planned plan was disrupted. Gu Xiuxiu was worried and couldn't sleep well these days. Sun Guodong's condition also kept getting worse. She kept blaming herself in her heart for being useless and causing trouble and not being able to help her daughter.

Hearing these words, the brothers and sisters looked at each other in disbelief.

Gu Erdi muttered: "The world is strange. We finally made it to the city, and now we ask you to go to the countryside."

Gu Mingdong felt helpless. The strange world was not just a year or two, but a vigorous ten years.

To a certain extent, keeping the educated youth away from the city is also a kind of protection for them. For example, Qian Zhiyi and Wu Mengting's family predicted in advance that they should stay away from the center of the storm to avoid disasters.

But the situation in rural areas is there, and the real problems are always more intense than imagined.

Gu Xiuxiu sighed and asked, "A Dong, how are the educated youths in your production team doing?"

"It's okay. You know the character of the captain and the third uncle. You won't deliberately embarrass them." Gu Mingdong was afraid that Gu Xiuxiu would hear the news and only think of the good things about going to the countryside, so he hesitated and said again.

"But except for the two strong male educated youths, the other three educated youths only work so much, which is probably not enough for themselves."

And not all places are like the Shanghe Village production team, because there is no need to worry about food and drink due to a good harvest, and the old Liu and Gu Jianguo are decent people and do not allow the production team to bully the educated youth.
