Wan Xinyu, feeling guilty, carried the bag of rations weighing fifty or sixty kilograms on his shoulders without saying a word. He overestimated himself and was almost crushed to the ground.

His little face flushed red, his legs trembled as he walked, but he gritted his teeth and carried the fifty or sixty kilograms of rations on his shoulders.

Jiang Yunshu scooped out some of the jar of lard he had boiled yesterday, and also took the leftover lard residue and pork with him, both of which were rare meat dishes these days.

The two of them arrived at the team leader's house one after the other. The team leader's wife, Guo Feng'e, was sitting in the yard with her two daughters-in-law, picking vegetables.

There were already a lot of cleanly picked vegetables piled at their feet.

When Guo Feng'e saw Jiang Yunshu and the other two coming over, she rubbed her hands on her apron again and again, and hurried forward to take the rations from Wan Xinyu's shoulders.

"You must be exhausted."

Wan Xinyu wanted to nod, but when he thought about how he was a man and complained about being tired over such a small thing, he would be laughed at. He quickly shook his head and said stubbornly, "Not tired, not at all."

This silly child, he is not tired even though he is out of breath while talking. However, Guo Feng'e, who eats too much salt, did not expose him. She asked her eldest daughter-in-law Liu Xiuhua to go into the house and pour out two glasses of water.

Wan Xinyu was so thirsty that he took the drink and drank it without caring about the heat. On the contrary, Jiang Yunshu sat there calmly and helped to pick the vegetables.

After the vegetables were picked, the second daughter-in-law, Wang Xiaofeng, took them to wash. Guo Feng'e was a little unsure about Jiang Yunshu's attitude and asked, "Jiang Zhiqing, what do you think we should cook today?"

"Aunt, this is the meat we bought yesterday at the county. We don't have many meat coupons, so we bought this much. Please take care of it and make sure the team members who come to help us have enough to eat."

These days, for people who are starving to the point of being skin and bones, it is better to eat enough than to eat well.

After being reminded by Jiang Yunshu, Guo Feng'e finally noticed the piece of meat on the table, and her eyes lit up.

This educated youth from the city is so generous that she can't remember the last time she ate meat.

Although the team raises pigs, they are all task pigs that need to be sent to the public for socializing. I don’t know what has happened in recent years. The pigs either die of disease or are so thin that they have no fat at all, even though they obviously eat a lot.

This resulted in the commune failing to complete its tasks every year, and the team members lost the pork they were supposed to get every year.

Because of this matter, her old man had a lot of headaches, but he couldn't come up with any solution.

But today I can have some meat, all thanks to Jiang Yunshu. Thinking of this, Guo Feng'e patted her chest and promised Jiang Yunshu:

"Jiang Zhiqing, I will definitely make sure the team members have enough to eat so that no one can find fault with them. They will all give you a thumbs up and praise your honesty."

Jiang Yunshu said with a smile: "Auntie, thank you for your help."

The mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and the two of them were busy in the kitchen. Jiang Yunshu and Wan Xinyu, who wanted to help, were driven out of the kitchen by Guo Feng'e. They sat in the shade of a tree in the yard in a daze, looking up at the sky from time to time.

There are a few white clouds floating in the clear blue sky, as beautiful as a painting.

Jiang Yunshu, who was feeling a little tired from sitting, stood up, stretched, and took a few deep breaths of the hard-earned fresh air, which was mixed with the aroma of rice.

Jiang Yunshu had a satisfied smile on his face. The modern environment was polluted and damaged, so where could one smell such fresh air?

Wan Xinyu accidentally caught a glimpse of the smile on Jiang Yunshu's face, and his hair stood on end in fright.

This smile is so scary. I wonder which unlucky guy she is targeting.

Life was peaceful here, but things were in turmoil at the educated youth camp.

When they went to work today, they heard people in the team talking about Jiang Yunshu and Wan Xinyu building a house and moving out. Not only that, some people in the team also openly and secretly belittled and dragged down these old educated youth who had been there for several years.

People live by their face and trees live by their bark. How can they tolerate this?

Wang Songshan said with a dark face, "How could they do this? They didn't even tell us about such a big thing as building a house. Are they trying to be on guard against us?"

"They're probably afraid that we'll take advantage of them. Everyone knows Jiang Zhiqing is petty and holds grudges. It's better for him to move out so he doesn't have to bother us." The key point is that he was extremely ruthless.

Liu Faliang was furious when he thought about how Jiang Yunshu pushed him into the water tank and almost drowned him.

He hated Jiang Yunshu to death.

Zhou Lili, who was eating, trembled when she heard the name Jiang Yunshu. Then she stood up and left silently with her bowl of rice.

Jiang Yunshu...is not someone she can afford to offend.

Wang Songshan was very happy to see someone on his side. "If they move out, then move out. If they get bullied by the team in the future, don't come crying and come to us. It's a good thing we can have some peace and quiet."

Although the others didn't say anything, they strongly agreed with their opinion in their hearts. It was just a pity that Wan Xinyu also had to move out.

From now on... forget it, I should try my best to have a good relationship with Wan Xinyu.

Guo Feng'e, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who had been busy for a long time, had finally prepared the meal.

There were so many people that they steamed two large pots of steamed cornbread made of two kinds of flour, a pot of cornmeal cakes, and a pot of pork and vermicelli stew.

The vermicelli was made by Guo Feng'e herself, the sweet potato vermicelli, which tasted chewy. She was reluctant to use up all the lard and pork that Jiang Yunshu brought, and kept half of it to eat in the afternoon.

In her opinion, it would be a huge loss to prepare the whole delicious meal for it and waste such good meat.

The pork and vermicelli stew was scooped into a wooden barrel with a wooden ladle. Several people divided the work and carried the prepared meal to the homestead of Jiang Yunshu and his friend.

It was dinner time. When the people who were eating at the gate of the courtyard smelled the fragrance, they stopped eating and tilted their heads to see what Guo Feng'e, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were carrying.

Widow Lin couldn't stand the aroma and couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, what delicious food is this? Why does it smell so good?"

Sooner or later they would all know, and Guo Feng'e did not hide it and shouted loudly:

"A big stew of pork and vermicelli noodles, and steamed buns to fill you up. Jiang and Wan Zhiqing are kind people. They would rather starve themselves than let the team members who work for them go hungry. Such honest people are hard to find these days."

"Sister-in-law, there's still meat? Do the working people eat so well?"

When Widow Lin heard about meat, her mouth was almost drooling, and she almost went forward to dig out the bucket. Compared to her, the others were not much better, and their appetites were aroused.

Guo Feng'e was unhappy: "It's real meat, how could I lie to you? This stew and the steamed buns were all made by me and my two daughters-in-law. There can't be any fakes."

Everyone became even more greedy now.

They also wanted to eat, but they didn't know if Jiang Zhiqing and the others needed people to work.
