Today is undoubtedly a joyful day of rest for these educated youth who have left their hometowns and devoted themselves to rural construction.

This precious leisure time is like a refreshing rain after a long drought, making everyone unable to contain their inner excitement and anticipation, eagerly looking forward to going to the town to find out what is going on.

In this remote rural area, they repeat heavy labor tasks every day, working from sunrise to sunset.

The monotonous pace of life makes time seem to stand still, passing by extremely slowly and dullly.

Everyone felt like a wild beast trapped in a cage, uncomfortable all over, and even felt like they were about to grow hair.

This yearning for the outside world and new things becomes stronger and stronger as the days go by, like a burning flame, spreading wildly in my heart.

After being in such a monotonous and boring rural living environment for a long time, their appetites have gradually lost their former vitality, and they are in urgent need of some unique and delicious food to soothe their long-suppressed hearts.

It seems that only delicious food can inject some joy and satisfaction into their dull lives.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly rang out from the crowd. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a female educated youth with a round face waving her hands excitedly.

He whispered, "Oh my! It's been a whole fortnight since I last had those delicious, steaming hot meat buns from our state-owned restaurant! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!"

The girl, affectionately called Yuanyuan by everyone, had a gleam of joy in her eyes at this moment, as if the big meat bun was right within her reach.

Her round face was very pleasing, and her bright eyes sparkled with a desire for meat buns.

In her previous life, she was one of the few educated youth who could live a good life after returning home.

The other educated youths also echoed this, saying in unison: "Who says it's not true? We're all so hungry. Lately, nothing tastes good in our mouths. It feels like we've almost forgotten what meat tastes like."

In this way, everyone chatted and laughed along the way. The anticipation of the town made their steps much lighter, as if they had forgotten the fatigue of work.

After a while, they arrived in the town.

Yue Yue, Liu Lili and several other educated youth went together to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy pork, thinking how wonderful it would be if they could have a delicious meal of pork today.

They walked into the supply and marketing cooperative full of hope, however, reality gave them a small blow when they rushed to the meat counter.

But I found that the pork over there had been sold out long ago, with only a few lonely pig's trotters left there, looking a little lonely.

They looked at each other helplessly. There was nothing they could do. They couldn't go back empty-handed, so they could only buy the pig's trotters first.

But how could this little bit of pig's trotters be enough to satisfy everyone's cravings? So, they held on to a glimmer of hope and decided to try their luck at the meat processing plant, hoping there might be some surprises there.

When they arrived at the meat processing plant, they saw an old man who looked a little serious. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing here? There's no meat left. Leave now!"

Yue Yue suddenly had an idea and handed Li Rui two cigarettes. Li Rui understood what she meant and immediately handed the cigarettes to the security guard with a smile on his face, saying, "Uncle, you've worked hard. Come and have a cigarette."

When the old man saw that they were two Daqianmen cigarettes, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his attitude towards them immediately became much better, with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, is there anything else? We are treating everyone to a dinner. It would be unreasonable if there is no main dish on the table, right?" Li Rui said to the uncle with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation.

The old man sniffed the cigarette in his hand, seemed to enjoy the smell, and then said: "You guys wait a moment, I'll go in and ask." After that, he turned around and slowly walked into the factory.

Everyone waited anxiously at the door, feeling both excited and a little nervous, wondering what kind of news the old man would bring. After a while, the old man came out with a mysterious smile on his face.

"We still have a few pairs of pig offal and pig ears. Do you want them? The master said he can give them all to you for half a pack of cigarettes." The old man whispered in Li Rui's ear.

Li Rui quickly relayed what the old man said to the other girls. Liu Lili hesitated and said, "Yueyue, this pig's offal isn't tasty. My mom has made it a few times, and it always has a weird taste. I'm afraid it's not a good idea for you to have this."

Yue Yue said confidently, "Don't worry, if I ask for pig offal, I will definitely make it well. I have a way to make it delicious."

Seeing Yue Yue so confident, no one knew what to say. After all, in this age of material scarcity, having food is better than nothing.

After waiting for a while, the old man came out with three sets of pig intestines and six pig ears. Everyone was about to take them, but unexpectedly, the old man took out three kidneys from behind his back and said with a smile: "The master said it's not easy for you kids, so I'll give you some more."

They quickly accepted it and said gratefully, "Thank you, sir, you are such a good man." Then they left the meat processing plant happily.

Although I didn’t buy any pork today, I still got some gains with these pig offal and pig’s trotters.

They were preparing to return to the village with the daily necessities they had purchased at the supply and marketing cooperative. Along the way, everyone was discussing how to deal with the pig offal and imagining what kind of delicious dishes they would become.
