"Yes, Chen Mutou from our village is a well-known old carpenter. People from all over the village come to him to make furniture.

He lives at the east end of the village, and all the old educated youth should know him.

When they get up, let them take you there. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

The captain spoke to Yang Baiyi with a pleasant expression.

When borrowing food yesterday, the team leader had a very good impression of Yang Baiyi.

As the last two buckets of water were poured into the water tank, the two large tanks in the yard were completely filled.

"Brother, do you think the little skirt is pretty?"

Yang Xiaoxiao opened her arms and turned in a circle in front of Yang Baiyi.

"Xiaoxiao is beautiful every day. She is the most beautiful child!"

Yang Baiyi touched Yang Xiaoxiao's head lovingly.

"Comrade Yang Baiyi, thank you for your hard work cooking and fetching water so early in the morning!

You're sweating, wipe it off quickly."

Zhang Chunling plucked up the courage to walk up to Yang Baiyi and raised the towel in her hand.

"Thank you, Comrade Zhang Chunling. I'll just wash my face in a moment."

Yang Baiyi was surprised by Zhang Chunling's boldness.

"Comrade Wanru, I'll go wake them up and we'll get ready for breakfast."

Yang Baiyi put down the carrying pole and walked towards the main room.

"OK."

Lin Wanru breathed a sigh of relief.

When Zhang Chunling handed over the towel just now, Lin Wanru felt her heart in her throat, fearing that Yang Baiyi would take the towel from Zhang Chunling.

"Comrade Zhang Chunling, you're quite proactive! Keep it up! I'm rooting for you!"

He Yingying came close to Zhang Chunling and made faces at her.

"Don't talk nonsense. We slept soundly, and Yang Baiyi got up early to cook and fetch water. I felt bad and just subconsciously wanted to thank him."

Zhang Chunling forced herself to find a way out.

"I understand! I understand!"

He Yingying looked as if she had seen through everything.

"Comrade Zhang Chunling, you don't have to be so polite. Comrade Yang Baiyi and I are on duty today. Cooking and fetching water are our responsibilities."

Lin Wanru said this and turned into the kitchen.

"Really? Why don't you get up and cook?"

Zhang Chunling expressed her dissatisfaction in a voice that only she could hear.

"Comrades, hurry up and get up for dinner."

Yang Baiyi came to the main room and woke up everyone who was still sleeping.

"Stop it, I haven't gotten enough sleep yet."

Cui Jinfa muttered something in a half-asleep state.

"You don't need to sleep much while you're alive. You'll sleep forever after you die. It's already mid-morning, and the ladies are still waiting to come over for dinner!"

Yang Baiyi lifted the quilts off them one by one and forced them to turn on their phones.

"Comrade Yang Baiyi, I can't get up. My stomach is still churning."

Fan Jian said weakly.

"You're inexperienced, aren't you? If your stomach feels uncomfortable, you should get up and drink some porridge. Porridge nourishes your stomach.

You drank too much yesterday. You should not drink like this anymore. It will harm your health."

Yang Baiyi had a smile on his face, and there was no sign that the two of them had done something dirty on the train two days ago.

Getting dressed, getting up, sweeping the toilet, brushing teeth, washing face, serving dishes and eating, all done within ten minutes. Men are quick in action.

"Comrades, after breakfast, let's go to the carpenter and get some furniture. At least we must have tables and benches.

As for the cabinets for personal use, anyone who needs them can call.

We also need to go up the mountain to chop some firewood. It’s not convenient to buy coal here, but there is plenty of firewood on the mountain.

We'll try to finish everything in one day and start work tomorrow."

Taking the opportunity of having breakfast, Yang Baiyi talked about today's arrangements.

"Okay, we can't leave the table and bench. My legs are numb from squatting while eating."

"I need to make a box so I can put my things in it. Now they're all piled up on the kang. Not only does it look messy, but it's also hard to find things."

"I want to pack a box, too."

…

Everyone agreed with Yang Baiyi's arrangement.

After the group finished breakfast, the old educated youth and Han Fei in the east wing also got up.

"Captain Han, we're eating. We want to trouble you with something later.

We want to make some furniture, but we don't know where the carpenter's house is, so we'd like you to take us there."

Yang Baiyi found Han Fei and said.

"Okay, no problem, Comrade Baiyi, just wait a few minutes, I'll be right there."

Han Fei agreed readily.

For him, this was just a piece of cake, just taking them to Carpenter Chen's house.

If someone is willing to seek help from you, it means they don't treat you as an outsider, otherwise they wouldn't ask for help.

Carpenter Chen lives in Chenjiatun. Even if he doesn't ask for my help, people can find him by asking around.

"Okay, we're not in a hurry. Take your time eating."

After chatting for a few more words, Yang Baiyi left Han Fei's kitchen and went to Zhang Hui and his family's kitchen next door.

"Comrade Zhang Hui, this is the difference between having a wife and not having one!

You guys got up at the same time as Captain Han, and Captain Han has already eaten, and you're still here cooking."

Looking at the busy figures of Yang Hui and Sun Dongchao, Yang Baiyi joked.

"Who says it's not true? In our group of educated youth, there was only one female comrade. There were more wolves than meat, and she didn't even live in the educated youth compound. Her life was miserable!"

"Not only do we have to cook for ourselves, we also have to mend our own clothes when they get torn. I'm a tall and strong man, but I'm forced to learn needlework. Can you believe it?"

Zhang Hui and Sun Dongchao looked miserable.

"It's really tragic. I won't rub salt into your wounds. Comrade Zhang Hui, we're going to the mountains to chop firewood today. Do you have a hatchet? Lend us one."
