"Su Tian, ​​get up, get up!" Ma Chunling knocked on the door happily.

"Chunling, what are you doing? I don't want to get up yet."

"Get up quickly, the village is distributing grain again today. Don't you want the sweet potatoes and peanuts?"

"Of course I need it. You go back to your room first, I'll be there soon."

"Then hurry up, it starts at eight o'clock." After saying that, Ma Chunling went back to her room.

Su Tian glanced at her watch; she had half an hour left. She got up, brushed her teeth, washed her face, made herself a cup of malted milk powder, drank it, and then had two pieces of steamed egg custard. That was how she solved her breakfast.

"Chunling, let's go."

"Hey, here I am."

"Su Tian, ​​how many sweet potatoes and peanuts can you get?"

"I'm not sure about that yet. I don't even know how many work points I have."

"Anyway, you get full work points every day, so you must have quite a few."

As the two chatted, they arrived at the threshing ground, where the brigade leader, village chief, and accountant were already busy.

Under their leadership, the villagers formed several long queues and had already loaded their carts and pushed them home very early.

These sweet potatoes and peanuts were all selected for planting the following year, and the rest were distributed among the villagers and educated youth according to work points.

Because sweet potatoes and peanuts do not require the payment of public grain, the harvest can be distributed in full, except for those reserved for seeds.

The villagers were very happy. They had a good harvest of sweet potatoes, which were filling and could be fed to the chickens if they couldn't finish them.

Peanuts can be pressed for oil, or they can be shelled and eaten as a vegetable.

After the villagers' portions were distributed, the next ones were given to the educated youth.

Su Tian received 200 jin of sweet potatoes and 100 jin of peanuts.

There was far too much food to eat, so she borrowed a cart from the villagers, loaded the sweet potatoes and peanuts onto the cart, and also loaded Ma Chunling's onto the cart. The two of them pulled it back together.

"Su Tian, ​​can you finish all of this?"

"I can't finish them all, so I plan to send some home."

"Hey, that's a good idea. I only weigh 100 pounds in total, I'll eat it slowly, so I don't plan to send it."

Because the roads in the village are difficult to travel, they pull their carts very slowly.

At this point, He Hua had only received a dozen or twenty kilograms of peanuts and sweet potatoes. She kept them for Chen Gang to carry back, as she was in a hurry to collect eggs from the henhouse.

She had to get ahead of everyone else at the educated youth settlement to get her hands on the egg.

She ran to the educated youth settlement, looked around, and sure enough, she was the first one back again. Heaven was on her side!

hehe……

"Old, disabled hen, has it laid an egg yet?" She quickly ran to the henhouse to check.

Wow, you had three more! You're amazing.

She quickly grabbed the eggs and ran to her house.

Su Tian had just returned to the entrance of the educated youth settlement when she saw He Hua running over from her small kitchen, carrying some white things in her hands.

He Hua saw Su Tian and was startled. Out of fear, she crushed an egg in her hand. Egg white and yolk dripped from her hand onto the ground. She wanted to explain herself but was too frightened to move.

"Tell me, where did you get those eggs? I was wondering why I hadn't picked up any eggs for half a month. Turns out you're the egg thief."

"Who stole your egg? I found it in the backyard of the educated youth settlement. Which eye of yours saw me steal it?"

“I saw it with both eyes. Where did the chickens in the backyard of the educated youth settlement come from, laying eggs for you to collect?”

I saw you run out from next to my small kitchen, and you still dare to argue?

"Su Tian, ​​don't talk nonsense. I just picked it up over there. You're blaming me for stealing your chicken because it's not laying eggs?"

"Alright, if you don't admit it, I'll call the captain over, and then I won't be so easy to talk to."

Call the brigade leader over. If he doesn't pay me fifty yuan, I'll change my surname to yours.

I've lost at least a hundred eggs.

"You, you, where did you get a hundred eggs? I only took a dozen or so..." He Hua realized something was wrong and hurriedly covered her mouth.

"You've already confessed, hurry up, if you don't compensate me for the eggs, then give me 20 yuan."

The educated youth who returned later found it unbelievable when they heard what Su Tian said.

Why does He Zhiqing like to steal things from Su Tian? Not only did he steal her boyfriend, but now he's stealing her eggs too.

An auntie who had come from outside the courtyard to watch the commotion squeezed in and said gleefully, "Hey, He Zhiqing, you're from the city, why do you like stealing so much?"

"You even steal eggs! I lost several eggs last month, you didn't steal those, did you?"

Hearing what the aunt said, He Hua became anxious and immediately said, "I didn't steal yours, I just borrowed a few eggs from Su Tian."

Do you really need to make such a big deal out of this?

Chen Gang was very disappointed by He Hua's egg-stealing. He originally thought He Hua was just a little vain, but he never expected her to do such a thing.

You can steal, but it's shameful to get caught after stealing.

“He Hua, if you don’t give me 20 yuan, I’m going to find the brigade leader.”

"I'll give it to you, you just wait," He Hua said, staring at Su Tian with a hateful look.

She went back into the house, grabbed two ten-yuan bills, and handed them to Su Tian, ​​saying, "This is for your eggs, take it."

"Hmph, thanks. A dozen eggs are worth 20 yuan, so I guess I've made a profit."

Everyone, please remember this well: this is the money He Zhiqing is paying for the eggs she gave me, not something I'm trying to extort from her.

“Don’t worry, Su Zhiqing, we can all vouch for you. We will definitely not let her extort you,” one of the aunties said.

He Hua gave the money to Su Tian, ​​then stood in the yard, too ashamed to face anyone, and went into the house with resentment in her eyes.

She counted the twenty yuan she had left and cursed Su Tian in her heart, not feeling at all that stealing was a wrong thing to do.
