At the educated youth compound, Jiang Baige, who was not far from the compound, saw Li Yan and her group returning from work in the distance.

He waved his hand and said, "You guys are off work."

Wu Lili climbed quickly carrying a hoe and spoke before anyone arrived.

"Comrade Jiang, you're back."

"How's life in the county town? Have you encountered anything interesting?"

Jiang Baige smiled slightly and said, "I just wandered around and didn't come across anything interesting."

Yu Shengli put away their farm tools and said, "Come into the house and tell them I will return the tools."

There was a large group of people, and it was inconvenient to talk standing at the door. Li Yan said, "Let's go! Let's talk inside the courtyard."

They greeted each other one by one and went to the yard together.

At the door, I heard someone laughing in the yard, and they seemed very happy.

Jiang Baige glanced at the crowd and saw everyone she knew was there. "I asked, and there's someone inside."

Li Yan walked in front and opened the door. "The new educated youth arrived last night and is resting at home today."

Jiang Baige understood. It was the same as when they came here. They didn’t have to work on the first day.

After entering the door, I saw two lesbians and three gay men in the yard.

There are quite a lot of people in the compound now.

When they saw them come in, the educated youth in the yard put away their smiles and greeted them politely.

"You guys are back?"

Zhang Hongyang and the others were also very polite. After introducing Jiang Baige, they went to the kitchen to talk.

Seeing the bag Jiang Baige was carrying, they were very curious and wondered if she had bought what she wanted.

Jiang Baige put a package on the table and took it out one by one.

Oil, salt, sugar, these are the necessities, and she has prepared them all.

An extra piece of meat was prepared for them, as Zhang Hongyang had instructed. The tickets were also given to her, telling her to buy it if she had them, and forget it if she didn't.

Seeing the meat on the table, everyone was very happy. Finally, they had meat to eat again.

The newly arrived educated youth in the yard heard them talking and came in to see what was going on.

Tang Xiaoxiao saw the meat and asked, "Meat, you actually bought some meat. Why didn't we buy any when we went to town today?"

Wu Lili said, "I bought this from the county town. It's certainly hard to find in town."

Jiang Baige didn't expect that there would be so many people in the educated youth compound, and she didn't know if the two kilograms of meat she prepared would be enough.

If we were all eating together, each person might not be able to eat more than two pieces of meat.

But she didn't care. Being able to help with the preparations was enough for their relationship.

After counting, I still had one meat ticket and one dollar left.

Jiang Baige handed the money and bills to Zhang Hongyang, "Comrade Zhang, this is what's left. It's for you."

The team leader of the educated youth team is Zhang Hongyang. Of course, the remaining money should be given to him for safekeeping. He will take it out next time when we go shopping together.

"Okay, you guys are tired from work, I'll go back."

Wu Juan asked, "Comrade Jiang, do you want to eat before you go back?"

Jiang Baige shook her head, "Grandma Meng is cooking! I'm going back."

Since she didn't want to eat, they didn't keep her any longer.

When I left, I went to the dormitory again to take a look. There were not many beds, and I didn't know who was sleeping in her bed.

A quilt and packed luggage were laid on top, and some of the items she left behind were placed on the ground beside her.

Wu Lili followed him into the room and said, "Comrade Jiang, your bed is occupied. I've put away your belongings for you. Please see if anything is missing."

Jiang Baige pursed her lips and said, "It's okay. There aren't many things. I can't lose them."

She picked up her belongings one by one from the ground and said, "I'll take all these away! They're taking up space here."

She thought about going back to the village chief's house to ask if she could move there and live with Grandma Meng. She felt pretty good these past few days.

Wu Lili whispered, "If you like that side, then live there! There are too many people here, it's too crowded."

The two of them thought of the same thing. Jiang Baige smiled and said, "Then I'll go back. You guys are tired after a day, so go to bed early."

Watching Comrade Jiang leave, Wu Lili thought to herself, "Comrade Jiang is a bit clumsy, but at least she has a good personality and never gets angry. If she were gone, I wonder what the personalities of the two who come after her would be like."

Jiang Baige didn't know what she was thinking. She didn't expect that because she was quiet, she was considered quite stupid in Wu Lili's eyes.

When Jiang Baige left the compound, she only took away a lunch box, a water bottle, and a few summer clothes. It would be warmer soon, so regardless of whether she could stay at Grandma Meng's house or not, she had to take her luggage over now so that she wouldn't have to come back to get it later.

After returning to Grandma Meng's house, she went back to her room to put down her luggage and went to the kitchen.

The rice in Grandma Meng's pot was already fragrant, so she asked, "Grandma Meng, what are you cooking?"

Grandma Meng smiled and said, "Pumpkin stewed rice, isn't that your favorite?"

Jiang Baige actually doesn’t like pumpkin rice. She loves the rice crust under the rice, which is fragrant and crispy.

Thinking of the rice crust, she swallowed.

Grandma Meng said, "Eat! Then go to bed early."

Jiang Baige took out a bag of side dishes and mixed them with the rice.

After dinner, Jiang Baige took the candy that Chen Jianguo bought and went next door.

After knocking on the door twice, someone answered from inside. It was Chen Jiaojiao's voice.

Chen Jiaojiao opened the door and saw Jiang Baige standing at the door. She shouted happily, "Sister, you're back."

Jiang Baige replied, "Yeah, I just got back."

She raised her hand and said, "This is the candy your eldest brother asked me to bring back for you. Take it."

"You even met my eldest brother."
