The setting sun shines on Xiaohe Bend. Wu Zhenqing, holding a harpoon and a small bucket, walked along the river in search. He stopped, found the fish, and held up his fork—a fish that was not too big or too small. Excitedly, he took the fish from the fork, put it in the small bucket, and continued to search... He suddenly stopped and stood still, and sure enough he found something again—but it was obviously not a fish. He crouched down and closed his eyes. Unable to bear the temptation, he slowly opened his eyes - not far away, there was a person taking a bath - the upper half of his naked body was facing away from him, his long hair fell down, covered his neck, and was spread over his shoulders On - it's a woman...

The graceful body of youth is so touching under the sunset. Wu Zhenqing watched with bated breath. The female educated youth taking a bath stretched her beautiful arms from time to time, scrubbing her body with a towel, and wrapped her long hair with a towel. She turned around, it was Zhang Meng... She swam towards Wu Zhenqing. With a bang, Wu Zhenqing's keg fell into the river... Startled, Zhang Meng immediately shrank into the water, only showing her head and shoulders—she turned her head to look around. She found Wu Zhenqing, and because of an accident, she stared at him blankly for a moment.

Wu Zhenqing hurriedly said, "I...I didn't see you! I didn't see anything!" He pretended to close his eyes. Wow—a bucket of water splashed on him, and the bucket flew ashore. The drowned Wu Zhenqing didn't dare to move, his eyes were still tightly closed. When he finally had the courage to open his eyes—there was no sign of Zhang Meng in the river. He picked up the bucket and ran away, as if a wild animal was chasing him.
At night, Wu Zhenqing tossed and turned in bed. He thought—what if she exposes me to the company commander?She sure will!She always seems to look down on me, although I hate her is fake, but she looks down on me is true... Maybe she hasn't gone to the company commander to sue me, it's better for me to take the initiative to confess...

He sat up and began to dress. Han Debao asked: "What's wrong with you? Are you suffering from insomnia?" There was a slight snoring sound - both Wang Xiaosong and Tsui Hark slept soundly. "I'll relieve myself..." "Are you lying? Are you so neatly dressed?" Wu Zhenqing said angrily, "You don't care about me!"
Next to the educated youth dormitory is a very small single dormitory where the company commander lives... The company commander was also fast asleep, snoring. Wu Zhenqing called from the side: "Company commander, company commander, company commander, wake up."

He woke up the company commander. "You?" The company commander took out his watch from under the pillow and looked at it, "What's the matter? It's the middle of the night!" "Commander, I made a mistake." "Let's talk about it tomorrow." The company commander fell down and fell asleep again. "Not tomorrow! It will be too late to explain tomorrow!" The company commander turned over and lay down on the pillow, staring at him: "Is it so serious? Then you explain it, keep it simple!" Wu Zhenqing said dully, "I...I saw the female educated youth taking a bath...I didn't mean it, I swear, but I...saw it."

The company commander couldn't laugh or cry: "Go back to sleep! This kind of mistake will wake me up!" Wu Zhenqing had no choice but to walk towards the door. "Stop!" The company commander stopped him, thought for a while, and said, "Tomorrow, I will take time to organize an educated youth class to learn the three major disciplines and eight points of attention. From now on, there will be a division between men and women in that river. You are not allowed to wash in the distance! You are not allowed to go to the river. Go deep for a swim!"
The educated youth gathered in front of the dormitory to learn the "Three Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention".

Wu Zhenqing held the "Red Book" in his hand, and said solemnly: "We learned it just now. Why should we learn it? Because, there have been violations. For example, Article 7 - avoiding women in the bath, we should understand it this way - including It also means that women avoid men in the bath, and it also means that men avoid women in the bath..." The educated youths were puzzled. Zhang Meng kept looking away, then turned her face to stare at Wu Zhenqing and said, "I understand, especially the meaning that men are not allowed to peek at women taking a bath, this is obscene and shameful." After speaking, he looked away again.

Wu Zhenqing said: "Yes, Zhang Meng supplemented it very well. However, such a bad phenomenon has not been discovered yet..." Zhang Meng turned to stare at him again.
At night, the spectacular scene of the educated youths burning wasteland... Wu Zhenqing surrounded the fire and said: "Be careful, the wind has turned, don't burn yourself!" He saw flames rushing towards a figure, and that figure seemed a little panicked. He ran over, put his arms around the man's head and ran away. That person is Zhang Meng... Wu Zhenqing let her go in embarrassment—and Zhang Meng was also embarrassed.

Wu Zhenqing said: "Why don't you wear a hat? Look, your hair is burnt! How about sending your gloves?" Zhang Meng said: "I don't wear it!" "why?" "I am different from you. I am a child who can be reformed. I am afraid that others will criticize me for being delicate." Wu Zhenqing took off his single hat and put it on her head, then took off his gloves and stuffed it for her: "Put it on. I won't criticize you for being delicate, who would dare?" "Squad leader! Squad leader!" A male educated youth ran up to him and said anxiously, "Squad leader, Han Debao went to the camp to get the letter, and he hasn't come back yet!"

Wu Zhenqing said, "Then he is living in the battalion headquarters." "But... the horse he was riding came back!" "Have you reported the company commander?" "I have reported it, and the company commander has brought people to look for it." Tsui Hark said, "Squad leader, there are wolves in this area." Wu Zhenqing said: "Stop talking nonsense! Follow me!" The howling of wolves in the dark night is shrill and long... Here and there, in all directions, the light of torches, flashlights and lanterns shone.The calling voice of educated youths:

"Han-de-bao-" "De-bao--" "Han Lao Liu! Where are you—" ... A pair of feet stepped on the marshes of "Tatoudian". Hao Mei fell down, but she still held the lantern high in one hand. Wang Xiaosong pulled her up: "Where's your shoe?" Hao Mei shook her head: "I don't know." Wang Xiaosong took off one of his shoes and put it on for her. Hao Mei cried: "I'm afraid..." Wang Xiaosong said: "Don't be afraid...follow me...don't get lost." Hao Mei said, "I'm afraid...he will be eaten by wolves...then how can we tell his parents?" There was a shot. The two looked anxiously at the prestige... Pairs of feet walk together. The seekers finally formed a semi-circle, and all kinds of lights illuminated the center. Han Debao sleeps soundly in a bush and grass with his schoolbag full of letters and newspapers on his pillow, like lying drunk among thousands of flowers. A female educated youth asked timidly, "What's wrong with him?" The company commander said: "This kid, eat mango persimmons." Wu Zhenqing got angry: "Damn it! Get up!" He kicked Han Debao hard. The company commander picked up Han Debao and blamed himself: "Don't blame him, everyone. We should look for him everywhere. Besides, we big guys have the responsibility to tell you that you can't eat more persimmons. , Eating a small bowl is similar to drinking two taels of wine, and it has a lot of stamina. Some people get drunk all day and night because of eating too much!" In the dark night, the figures of a group of people walked towards the company's garrison...
