No matter what, it's not good to let these delicate girls out,
What if something happens.
Li Dali said, "Come with me. The brigade's farm tool house is still empty. It's still possible for you to rest during the day."
Zhao Lanxiang and the others temporarily left their luggage and belongings in the brigade's public property house,
Several people looked at each other in dismay.
The male educated youths had it the hardest. Their faces were covered with mud,
Their big palms wiped their faces, and their faces were as black as Mr. Bao's. The female educated youth who was frowning laughed. Jiang Li came back happily in the afternoon,
She found that all the things she confiscated in the box had been smashed,
Her face was gloomy,
No one was pleasing to the eye. After the brigade leader left, she sneered,
"What kind of broken place is this?"
Zhao Lanxiang silently rolled her eyes in her heart. She knew that this was a broken place, but she still came. Zhao Lanxiang couldn't understand.
However, she was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back. She didn't have time to guess what the eldest miss was thinking. She borrowed a woodshed from the people around her and made meat buns and vegetable noodles with Zhou Jiazhen. Zhao Lanxiang was very willing to use oil and used the two liang of oil. An hour later, her buns were steamed. The buns were made of high-quality fuqiang flour and half-fat lean pork. They were oily, tender, and fluffy. When everyone was hungry and waiting in the farm tool house,
She and Zhou Jiazhen were slurping noodles in the farm house next door.
The fragrance drifted in the house, attracting the other educated youths who couldn't help looking over there. They saw Zhou Jiazhen's expression of enjoyment as he ate heartily,
They were getting hungrier and hungrier. Zhao Lanxiang saw this,
She didn't hide anything,
She called everyone to eat together. She took out some leftover dough from the noodles and gave it to the educated youths who had empty stomachs to eat. Although it wasn't much, it could at least fill their stomachs with hot soup.
Zhao Lanxiang's behavior made the educated youths who didn't have a house to stay feel better. Their good impression of this cold and taciturn female educated youth rose to a higher level. Although Zhao Lanxiang didn't invite them to eat buns, it was delicious to eat the dough mixed with bean sauce. After all, flour was fine grain, and pork was also rare. Freeloading off a meal of fine grain was already a huge advantage.
Jiang Li returned to the educated youths' place after eating. After a hard work of packing, the food in her stomach was almost digested. When Zhao Lanxiang made the buns, she smelled the fragrance was very tempting. Smelling the fragrance, it was better than the steamed bun she ate. But Zhao Lanxiang didn't invite her to eat with her, and Jiang Li didn't put down her face to eat.
Until she watched Zhao Lanxiang swallow the last steamed bun into her stomach, and didn't say a word about inviting her to eat the steamed bun. Jiang Li's eyes widened, and she was full of anger.
Zhao Lanxiang's enthusiasm for her brother was like a piece of sticky candy, and she couldn't get rid of it. Some time ago, her brother was hospitalized. She casually mentioned it, and Zhao Lanxiang hurriedly bought a bunch of nutritional products. She didn't even blink, and her brother couldn't finish them now. Who would have thought that when Zhao Lanxiang came to the countryside, she couldn't even bear to give her a meat bun?
When she passed by Zhao Lanxiang, she said coldly, "I've already written a letter home this weekend. Don't expect me to say good things about you."
With that said, she lifted her foot and strode out of the farming tool shed.
Zhao Lanxiang rubbed her full stomach contentedly and ignored Jiang Li. Zhou Jiazhen turned and whispered to her, "Do you know each other?"
Zhao Lanxiang said vaguely, "We're from the same place, but we're not familiar with each other."
Zhou Jiazhen said indignantly, "Seriously, she's still showing that face of disdain in front of the brigade leader. There's nothing to criticize about the brigade leader. He's very dedicated and responsible. There are often cases of people starving to death in the other brigades. Although our brigade doesn't have enough to eat, we're still given enough food every year. If she really thinks we're poor, why did she go to the countryside? "
Zhao Lanxiang smiled but didn't say anything. She lowered her head and mended the hole in her clothes. The needle and thread went through her snow-white shirt, and she used a plain blue silk thread to trace a flower on her sleeve. The hole in her sleeve looked even more exquisite and beautiful.
Zhou Jiazhen's attention was quickly attracted by the flower. It was extremely rare.
She let Zhou Jiazhen look at her clothes. She held her chin and looked at the blue sky. She was in a good mood.
The collective dormitory of the educated youths had collapsed. She didn't know how the brigade leader would allocate their accommodation. She … didn't want to go anywhere except the old man's house.
…
Zhao Lanxiang was thinking about living in the old man's house. Li Dali was scratching his head about the allocation of accommodation for these educated youths.
He talked until his mouth was dry, so he specially gathered the villagers to discuss. Although the title of educated youths sounded good, they came in the name of building a new socialist countryside. In the end, they really did construction. However, the construction made them even poorer. If they asked themselves honestly, no one would be willing to take in these educated youths.
Li Dali said patiently, "You don't have to worry about their meals. They're just lodging for a while. When the educated youths' dormitory is built, you don't have to bother. If you don't agree, you can take turns. Anyway, there are only a dozen educated youths in total. Each family will receive them for a month. It's fair for everyone, and we can save the money to build a house for them. "
When the villagers heard this, they couldn't sit on their stools anymore.
"Hey — Brigade leader, aren't you tricking us?" This was the straightforward and impatient group.
"No, no. How can each family live for a month? It's not stable. Those students probably don't want to. "This was the indirect group.
"It's better to draw lots. Whoever draws the lot will receive them." This was the adventurous group.
Everyone pushed back and forth and discussed for a long time. Li Dali decided to let the cadres set an example by accepting the educated youths. The brigade leader and branch secretary would receive two, and the deputy leader and deputy secretary would receive one. The rest of the villagers drew lots themselves.
They didn't care about their meals. They just needed to clean up a room for the educated youths. Even so, many people didn't want to lose out.
Li Youfu's family drew three, Li Jianguo's family drew three, He Guoqing's family drew three, and He Aijun's family drew two. Those who didn't draw any educated youths secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They hid their happiness in their hearts and didn't reveal it. Instead, he patted the three families and said openly, "Don't worry, those students are all sensible. Who knows, they might even have to subsidize your rent and food every month!"
Li Jianguo's wife put her hands on her waist and pointed at one of the educated youths on the list. "Our family wants these three."
The three she pointed at were Jiang Li, Zhao Lanxiang, and Tang Qing. These three educated youths were usually dressed neatly and had good manners. They looked smart and charming, and they looked like real city people. Every two or three days, they either went to a restaurant or bought meat back to have a good meal. They were so well-off that the villagers could not help but be envious. If they really received these three people, they might be able to eat some meat.
The other three families immediately became unhappy. As a result, they quarreled again. In order to compete for these "rich people" among the educated youths, they quarreled fiercely, making Li Dali's head throb.
He slammed the table hard and angrily scolded, "Shut up, all of you! What's the point of arguing!"
Li Dali, the captain, had a doughy temper. He looked fierce, but he was actually a good person. He was very dignified in the brigade. Even the fiercest woman in the brigade didn't dare to provoke him.
The secretary finally said, "This won't do, that won't do. Whoever wants to take the initiative to accept the educated youths, come forward. How can you only think about taking advantage of others? "
In the end, due to the captain and the secretary's feelings, several families hesitantly came forward, reducing the pressure on the other three families. On average, each family only accepted one or two people. The pressure wasn't great and was still within an acceptable range.
After Li Dali sent everyone away, he collapsed.
He wiped his face with a handkerchief and said to the secretary, "How to arrange and distribute these comrades is also a headache."
The secretary humorously said, "Why do you still care? Don't they have hands?"
Li Dali patted his forehead and said with understanding, "Then let them choose. Won't I be tired to death if I manage this and that?"
In the afternoon, Li Dali went to the temporary educated youths camp to announce his decision. He let the educated youths choose their own place to stay until the end of the year when the brigade handed in enough food to build a new dormitory for them.
There were a total of eight families on the list that were willing to accept the educated youths. Zhao Lanxiang searched everywhere but couldn't find the shadow of the old man.
She wrote down another record for the old man in the small account book, but on the surface, she said with a smile, "Reporting to the captain, I've already solved my own accommodation problem. There's no need to add to the burden of the brigade."
Li Dali looked at her. This female educated youth with big watery eyes stared straight at him. Her stare made his heart heat up and beat fiercely. His charcoal-like face was not very comfortable. He said with a strong local accent, "I know. Which family?"
