"Attention, all villagers. Attention, all villagers. The production brigade is holding an emergency general meeting. Everyone, please head to the drying-floor immediately."
Chen Beiguo repeated the announcement several times before stopping. The drying-floor was the largest open space in the village, typically used for all general meetings.
As Gu Jiaojiao walked in, she happened to run into several officials walking out. When the two groups met, everyone paused in their tracks. The brigade captain let out an awkward laugh, somewhat afraid to meet Gu Jiaojiao's eyes. "Gu Zhiqing is here. Let's head to the drying-floor together!"
Gu Jiaojiao nodded and stepped aside to let everyone pass.
