Aunt Liu also said that Chen Pingsan hasn't been to the county much recently, but he hasn't come to work either. He stays at home all day long, saying he is recuperating. She hasn't smelled any medicine coming from their house, so she doesn't know what he is doing.
Aunt Liu said with envy, "But Chen Dadong took my mother to the county for treatment again today. He is so filial. I hope my son can be so filial in the future." She glanced at Song Yun and continued, "In my opinion, whether a son is filial or not depends on the character of his daughter-in-law. If the daughter-in-law is filial and sensible, and takes the initiative to take her mother-in-law to the hospital when she is sick and takes care of her wholeheartedly, the man will naturally like her more. If she is unfilial to her parents-in-law, the man will definitely despise her."
Song Yun didn't respond. She wiped the sweat off her forehead, stood up with a smile, and said, "Aunt, the work is almost done. I have to go cook. See you later." After saying that, she smiled at Aunt Liu again, turned around and left.
Aunt Liu sighed twice, "I haven't finished what I was saying yet."
In response to her, Song Yun's pace became faster and faster.
Aunt Liu had no choice but to give up, thinking that if she came to help with the work in the afternoon, she would talk about it later.
When Song Yun arrived at the educated youth point, there were still ten minutes before the end of work, and the others had not arrived yet.
She worked quickly, finishing her morning work early, which was why she could come in early. Those who hadn't finished their work could only come in after the team leader rang the gong at the end of the workday.
The pot was washed, and she rinsed it again with clean water. The time at noon was short, so she cooked a big bowl of noodles and boiled two eggs. There were green vegetables and green onions in the vegetable garden outside the yard, but she didn't pick them. After all, they ate separately, and she didn't contribute to the vegetable garden. If she ate them, she might be criticized by others.
As soon as the noodles came out of the pot, footsteps were heard outside. It must be the person in charge of making lunch who came in early.
The two who walked into the kitchen were Xu Fengying and Huang Meiying. As soon as they came in, they saw Song Yun standing by the stove washing the pot. Xu Fengying immediately walked to the hanging pot, opened the lid and looked inside. Seeing that no one had touched the rice in the pot, she covered it again.
They usually put the washed rice into the hanging pot when they go to work in the morning, and then put a calculated amount of firewood into the small wood stove. This ensures that the rice in the hanging pot is cooked through without burning it. This is the experience gained after countless trials. The rice is cooked in advance, and they can just come back at noon and stir-fry some dishes to eat, without wasting too much rest time.
Huang Meiying walked to the stove and saw that the pot had been cleaned. Song Yun's big bowl of steaming noodles was placed on the stove. Two eggs could be clearly seen in the bowl. She couldn't help swallowing.
I thought to myself, no wonder I had to eat separately from them.
Huang Meiying was a person of dignity, so he naturally wouldn't ask Song Yun for food.
But Xu Fengying was shameless. When she saw the two eggs in Song Yun's bowl, her eyes widened. "You're eating two eggs by yourself?"
Song Yun ignored her and picked up the bowl to leave. Xu Fengying said, "Give me one. I'll return it to you when I buy some eggs next day."
Eggs weren't expensive, but they required coupons, and since she didn't have any, she couldn't eat them. Some families in the village had eggs, but they would only trade them for something else. The value of eggs was much higher than buying them directly with money, so unless they really needed them, the educated youth wouldn't go to the village to trade them for eggs.
So the meals at the educated youth camp were either stir-fried or boiled vegetables every day, without any oil or water.
Song Yun glanced at Xu Fengying and thought to herself, this guy is really thicker-skinned than a city wall. How could he forget what happened this morning so quickly?
Not to mention Song Yun, even Huang Meiying felt ashamed for Xu Fengying. She had wronged Song Zhiqing in the morning, and now she was shamelessly asking for eggs. How could she open her mouth?
Song Yun said nothing and walked away with the bowl.
Xu Fengying was so angry that she jumped up and down. "Look at how arrogant she is. It's just an egg, but she acts like she's never eaten it before. Give her some face."
Huang Meiqin didn't respond. He was just adding fuel to the fire when he heard Xu Fengying say, "I think she's just disunited and likes to seek independence and division. Her ideological awareness is very poor. People like her need more ideological education classes, otherwise who knows what she'll do in the future."
