Ever since Shen Mu Ning told everyone about Cao Jin at noon, all the female educated youths made plans to go together.

All the educated youth agreed that they would follow the main group to work and back, and not dawdle or fall behind.

Even if you need to talk to someone in the brigade about something, you should find someone to go with you.

For example, when Shen Mu Ning wanted to trade some green beans, cucumbers, and peppers with Aunt Gui Hua and the others, she asked Lin Si Qi to go with her.

They couldn't easily deal with the contraband in broad daylight, so no one was in a hurry to find it.

Everyone agreed that they would take the items out that evening.

If it was unimportant and could be destroyed, I would burn it myself when I boiled water for a bath at night.

As for the rest, it depends on how each person handles it.

However, with Cao Jin as a ticking time bomb, they dared not leave him at the educated youth settlement.

Shen Mu Ning and the other newly arrived educated youth hadn't even been in the countryside for a few days yet, so naturally there was nothing special they needed to take care of.

So they were able to relax and tidy themselves up, and then, following Dingxiang's instructions, began to stock up on various dried vegetables.

Shen Mu Ning also asked Zhu Yang to bring her back a few jars, so she could pickle all kinds of vegetables.

Shen Mu Ning had originally planned to take leave to buy the jars herself, but she couldn't avoid Zhu Yang, who was responsible for purchasing supplies for the educated youth settlement.

So she directly asked Zhu Yang to bring back a few jars, just enough for her to use outside.

As for the food in the space, it won't spoil anyway, so we can just eat it fresh.

Shen Mu Ning took Lin Si Qi to Aunt Gui Hua's house to see if they could exchange some vegetables.

Although the educated youth could not finish all the food they ordered in the summer, they had to make it into various kinds of pickled vegetables, kimchi, and dried vegetables.

They can't store that much food; it's not enough for them to eat for a month.

Moreover, since she was the one cooking alone, it wasn't appropriate for her to participate in distributing the vegetables to the educated youth. She could just exchange some vegetables at the brigade station, which would be enough for her to pickle vegetables.

In a few days, when it's time to plant cabbages and radishes, she'll cultivate a separate vegetable garden and grow more vegetables for herself.

Radishes can be made into dried radish or pickled vegetables, while cabbage can be made into spicy cabbage or sauerkraut.

When spring comes next year, we can plant more green beans and cucumbers, and we won't need to buy our own pickled vegetables next year.

Shen Mu Ning and Lin Si Qi chatted and laughed all the way to the brigade leader's house.

Lin Siqi was actually very puzzled as to why Shen Mu Ning had changed so much.

Did Shen Mu Ning also live a second life after her death?

However, based on her observations over the past few days, Shen Mu Ning was completely unfamiliar with the Xinshan Brigade.

For example, when they went to buy furniture before and now when they went to the brigade leader's house, Shen Mu Ning took the main road.

Unlike herself, who had lived in the Johor Bahru brigade for several years, she knew which shortcut to take to the brigade leader's house.

So, the changes that happened to Shen Mu Ning were due to the butterfly effect brought about by her rebirth?

Regardless, Shen Mu Ning had helped him before, and she seemed harmless to him for the time being, so he wouldn't touch her.

Lin Siqi put aside her complicated feelings and went to the brigade leader's house with Shen Mu Ning.

"Knock, knock, knock." Shen Mu Ning looked at the courtyard, which was more impressive than any other house in the brigade, and went up to knock on the door.

"Aunt Guihua, are you home?" Shen Mu Ning had arranged to visit Li Guihua that evening while she was at work that afternoon.

During the day, there are many people and many people talking in the fields, so it's not appropriate to directly discuss exchanging vegetables. We can only talk about it at Aunt Guihua's house.

"Here you are, Little Shen, come in quickly." Li Guihua rushed to open the door as soon as she heard Shen Mu Ning's voice.

Shen Mu Ning followed the instructions and entered the courtyard, where she saw Gu Xiao Hu, who had led the way for them earlier, coming out of the kitchen.

"Sister Chen, Sister Lin, what brings you here? Did you come to see me?"

Gu Xiaohu was originally in the kitchen trying to help his mother, but when he heard Shen Mu Ning's voice, he remembered how delicious the candy she had given him was.

In order to get some candy, she hurriedly came out to see Chen Mu Ning, to see if she could still earn candy by working.

"Okay, Sister Shen won't be looking for you today," Shen Mu Ning said, and little Gu Xiao Hu visibly wilted.

"However, I just saw Xiaohu helping out in the kitchen, right? Xiaohu is a hardworking and good boy, so I'll reward him with a piece of candy."

Seeing the disappointment in Gu Xiaohu's eyes, Shen Mu Ning stopped teasing him and took out the candy she had prepared beforehand.

"Xiao Shen, don't mind my little rascal, come sit down and have some water."

Li Guihua went inside to fetch two bowls of water, and when she came out, she saw Shen Muning give her eldest grandson a milk candy.

"It's alright. Your grandson is well-behaved and sensible. He'll definitely amount to something in the future. A piece of candy isn't worth anything."

Hearing Shen Mu Ning praise her eldest grandson, Li Guihua beamed with joy. Who doesn't like their child being praised?

Li Guihua gestured for Shen Mu Ning and Lin Si Qi to sit down before asking them what they wanted to see her about.

When she heard that Shen Mu Ning was coming to her house in the afternoon, she thought Xiao Shen was looking for Gu Cheng De, but when she finished work, Xiao Shen directly said that she was looking for her.

So Li Guihua didn't call Gu Chengde back from working on her private plot; she just took care of Shen Mu Ning and Lin Si Qi herself.

"Auntie, I came to you because I wanted to exchange some vegetables with you." Shen Mu Ning was always a person who got straight to the point, and she didn't beat around the bush with Li Gui Hua.

"Hmm? I haven't heard that the educated youth didn't have enough food this year. They must have taken good care of us. Why do we still need to buy more vegetables?"

You should know that in the past, the vegetables grown at the educated youth settlement were not enough to eat. In the summer, the wild vegetables would become too old, so they often traded vegetables with the people in the brigade.
