Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 164 - 163 Recitation (Monthly Pass 640+)

Xia Xiao didn’t stay in the dormitory for long before she went back to the team headquarters, where there were many people, all studying at the headquarters.

Seeing Xia Xiao coming over, Gao Guoqiang waved her over, and Xia Xiao moved closer.

Gao Guoqiang said to Xia Xiao, "Educated Youth Xia, have you memorized it yet?"

Xia Xiao nodded, and Gao Guoqiang then said, "Then you take over for Secretary Li. He has been speaking for quite a while."

"Captain, aren’t you going to speak?" Xia Xiao asked.

Gao Guoqiang shook his head, "I’ll just follow along and learn. He’s good at fighting and farming, but I’m not keen on this kind of literary stuff."

Xia Xiao nodded and agreed.

Li Zhenchuan had been speaking until his mouth was dry. Hearing Li Zhenchuan’s somewhat parched voice, Xia Xiao knew he had been talking for a long time. If it were in the future, Xia Xiao would have taken the initiative to pour a glass of water for Li Zhenchuan, but in front of everyone at this moment, she did not do so.

Right then, she took the initiative and said, "Reporting to Secretary Li, I have memorized it."

Everyone suddenly looked towards Xia Xiao, and Li Zhenchuan laughed, said that was good, gave her a thumbs-up, and then said to everyone, "Educated Youth Xia has copied a few versions and can also recite now, let’s have Educated Youth Xia tell us about it. Everyone should learn well."

By now, Li Zhenchuan’s mouth was very dry. Even if Xia Xiao hadn’t shown up, he would have found someone else to take his place.

Xia Xiao had no problem with that. At this moment, there were still quite a few people in the production team who couldn’t read or write. It was quite unrealistic to teach them to read and write, so they could only teach everyone to recite.

As soon as Li Shengmei saw Xia Xiao was about to show off, she hurriedly said, "Secretary Li, can Educated Youth Xia do it? Has she memorized it entirely?"

Once Li Shengmei voiced her doubts, others naturally began to question as well.

Secretary Li said with a smile, "I haven’t completely memorized it myself either. We are all learning together, and I am learning as well."

"Then let me do the talking. I can read too." As the director of the production team’s women’s committee, she had more right than Xia Xiao to stand up and speak, Li Shengmei said, holding her own copy. Although it wasn’t pretty, she managed to copy it independently, which was quite an achievement among all the women in the production team.

"Can you really recite the whole thing, Educated Youth Xia?" Secretary Li asked.

Xia Xiao had also reinforced her memory, and if she couldn’t do it, Shitou was there to remind her.

After being with Xia Xiao, Shitou had gained quite a bit of knowledge. He learned to read and write, and though he wasn’t as powerful as a computer, he learned faster than a human.

So when Xia Xiao recited from memory, she received a round of applause and also made Li Shengmei’s face turn green with envy.

"Is there anyone else who can recite like Educated Youth Xia?" When Li Zhenchuan asked this question, no one else wanted to show off.

Everyone had just learned it, and even if they had copied it a few times, they couldn’t guarantee they wouldn’t make mistakes, so no one stood up.

Li Shengmei pushed Dong Meihua forward. Dong Meihua’s face went pale, and she stammered without being able to recite the whole thing, making Li Shengmei frustrated at her lack of progress.

Everyone hissed in disapproval, and Dong Meihua was embarrassed and angry with Li Shengmei for putting her on the spot.

At that point, Li Zhenchuan didn’t make a big deal out of it and just encouraged Dong Meihua to study hard. He let Xia Xiao continue to teach everyone, with Xia Xiao reciting a line and everyone following. It was like chanting slogans. freewёbnoνel.com

That afternoon, everyone was studying, and they continued into the night. When they stopped, people would ask someone nearby.

After everyone dispersed, Li Zhenchuan called a small meeting of the educated youth, also requesting that they help the people in the production team learn. After all, the educated youth were the cultural layer of the production team, and many people there couldn’t read or write or knew very little. If the educated youth could help everyone learn, that would be ideal.

The next morning, everyone gathered in the cafeteria. Before breakfast, they had already started studying. Seeing Gao Jiaxing arrived, Xia Xiao was surprised.

Lin Xuebi even commented, "Gao Jiaxing, weren’t you bedridden because the university entrance exam was canceled? How did you recover so quickly? Why aren’t you resting properly?"

Led by Gao Jiaxing, one by one, the entire cafeteria was abuzz with enthusiasm, and by the end of it, everyone could say a few sentences.

Li Shengmei said to Lin Xuebi, "Women hold up half the sky. Comrade Lin Xuebi, you should study hard,"

Lin Xuebi’s face turned green, and she stiffly forced a smile, but with everyone watching, she didn’t dare say anything. She also learned the day before but had forgotten everything upon returning home. Now she didn’t know anything.

As expected, Lin Xuebi was summoned by Li Shengmei to the headquarters to study. At this moment, Li Shengmei was very enthusiastic about studying, and since she was the women’s director, she fully conveyed the thoughts from the higher-ups. Whoever couldn’t say five sentences, she would call to the headquarters to learn.

Li Shengmei wanted to catch Xia Xiao messing up, but Xia Xiao had copied it three times and recited it successfully, so with Li Shengmei only knowing five sentences herself, she couldn’t do much.

But catching someone who couldn’t say five sentences and bringing them to the headquarters to study still made Li Shengmei feel accomplished. Of course, there was an added benefit as Li Shengmei’s memorization of the quotations kept improving.

After breakfast, everyone left the cafeteria carrying hoes and continued to recite as they walked away.

"Gao Jiaxing, let’s recite it together," Xia Xiao said.

Xia Xiao asked, "Brother Gao, have you learned it all?"

Gao Jiaxing nodded, "You’re so impressive; how could I fall behind?"

Zheng Xianghong laughed and said, "This kid, he’s been studying so diligently. If I hadn’t taken away his book, he would still be reciting."

Xia Xiao laughed and said, "Then Brother Gao, why don’t you recite some for us to hear, let auntie and me listen."

Zheng Xianghong happily agreed. She had learned five simple sentences and was thankful for the copy Xia Xiao had given her the day before, which she had read and memorized a few simple lines. Otherwise, she would have been caught by Li Shengmei that morning.
