Chapter 2 2 The fate of two people

He Erbao is a local educated young man who returned to his hometown. After graduating from high school, he returned to the village. He Erbao is quite well-known in the local area. When he was in junior high school, he was regarded as a model by the county.The reason is that he saved a cow in a neighboring village in the flood.In the rainy season of that year, it rained heavily for several days in a row in this area, and the ditches were full and flat. This kind of rain is rare in the north.That morning, He Erbao and a few of his peers in the village braved the rain on the way to the school. They had to cross a river to go to the school. There was a bridge on the river. When school was over yesterday, the bridge had been washed away by the surging flood. It's crumbling.The students in the mountain village are not surprised by all this.They walked up and down the crumbling bridge, talking and laughing.

When they came to the river today, the bridge had collapsed in the water, and the piers and the planks on the bridge had already been washed away by the muddy river.He Erbao didn't feel the slightest bit of frustration because the bridge was broken. On the contrary, he was a little excited because they could justifiably not go to school. He Erbao and several young friends stood by the flooded river, excitedly discussing the width of the river, and made a bet that they could swim to the other side.Of course it was He Erbao who said this, because among them, He Erbao had the best swimming skills.Those companions didn't believe He Erbao's words, and said that he was bragging, He Erbao was very upset, rolled up his arms and sleeves and wanted to swim over to show his companions, saying so, he still felt a little shocked when he really swam over. fear.While hesitating, they also found a half-sized cow in the water, and the cow went down the water.Obviously, the cow didn't want to be washed away by the flood, it felt scared.Because of the strong desire to survive, it struggled in the water.So it's not going down that fast.One of the partners said: Erbao, can you rescue the cow?If you rescue the cow, we will count you as capable.

He Erbao had no way out, self-improvement and self-esteem forced He Erbao to jump into the water and swim towards the cow with all his strength.He really grabbed the ox's tail. The ox obviously calmed down when he saw the person. You must know that the ox is naturally proficient in water. They all swam from the water to the shore. This time, He Erbao became famous.First, he was awarded by the commune as a good student for being brave and brave, and soon, he was awarded a good example of caring for national property by the county education bureau.Since then, He Erbao often went to some schools to introduce his heroic deeds.His deeds have long been compiled into materials by the Chinese teacher and the principal. At first, he read from the manuscript, and later, he memorized it.What He Erbao said were very passionate words, with shining thoughts everywhere.

Soon, He Erbao joined the Chinese Communist Youth League, and later he wrote an application for joining the party.Before he graduated from high school, he finally joined the party organization.This is indeed rare among high school students in the county. He Erbao, who graduated from high school, was still a well-known figure in the village. He was interviewed by the secretary of the county party committee.Photos of him shaking hands with the county party secretary were published in newspapers.Not to mention the secretary of the brigade, even the secretary of the commune, few people have received such an honor.

Soon, He Erbao became the production captain, then became the secretary of the Youth League branch, and then became the secretary of the party branch of the brigade.He Erbao, who is just in his early twenties, has received such attention. He seems to have seen the future and hope.For a typical young man like He Erbao, if he joined the army or was recommended to go to college as a worker, peasant and soldier student, he would definitely have no problems.He Erbao is He Erbao, he has given up these opportunities to others, and he wants to take root in the rural annals.He Erbao has He Erbao's ideas. He is now the secretary of the party branch of the brigade, and he leads nearly a thousand people. If this continues, he will become the secretary of the commune and even work in the county. It is not impossible of.Whether it's a soldier or a college student, if you go out for a while and look back, you still have to start from the beginning. He Erbao can't let go of such a good start he had.

In the winter of the year He Erbao became brigade secretary, he began to frequently visit the educated youth spot.At the beginning, he visited the educated youth site as a courtesy, with his hands behind his back, imitating the old party secretary, and asked the educated youth if they had any difficulties, and if they had any good suggestions for the brigade and the production team.His expression was not very painful at the time. This educated youth spot has been established for several years, and he has a kind of rejection of these educated youths. In name, they are re-educated by poor and lower-middle peasants. In fact, they have not had a peaceful day. , Ever since that day, they have wanted to go back to the city.It turned out that some old educated youths had even dated with local young women, and some young women even had abortions for this, causing rumors, but when those few old educated youths returned to the city, they didn't turn their heads and patted each other. The ass is gone.The local young women were abandoned, so they cried and cried, looking for life and death.You must know that these local young women are all the most beautiful girls in the local area. Looking at the male educated youths, they are either crooked or idle.

Therefore, He Erbao didn't have a good impression of the educated youths from the city since he was a child, and he still had a little jealousy in his heart.After he returned to his hometown, he instinctively refused to associate with these city people.Didn't even bother to look at them. But now it is different, he is the secretary of the party branch of the brigade, and it is his job to educate the educated youth well.In that winter, when he came to the educated youth spot, he fell in love with Li Hongmei.At that time, there were more than a dozen girls in the educated youth camp, and Li Hongmei was the only one who was beautiful, with fair and tender skin, and dark and bright eyes.Li Hongmei also wore a scarf woven with red wool. In the monotonous winter in the north, Li Hongmei became the most beautiful scenery in He Erbao's eyes.

He Erbao, who is also in his twenties, has just begun to fall in love. His eyes and Li Hongmei's dark and bright eyes meet together, and the consequences can be imagined. Since then, He Erbao has been uncharacteristically, and he has become a regular visitor to the educated youth spot. He sits with young men and women on the kang in the north, but his eyes look over everyone's shoulders, intertwined with Li Hongmei's eyes stickily.Their first love changed the fate of the two people without being aware of it.
