Chapter 21 Private Plot
Song Wei took the fish to find Li Juan. She couldn't cook the fish herself, so of course she had to find someone who could cook to prepare it.
Li Juan was so happy about this that her eyes narrowed into slits. How many people would be willing to do such a thing if they could eat meat just by moving their hands.
“Can you make mushroom sauce?”
"Yes!" Li Juan answered firmly.
"I learned this from an auntie in the village two years ago. I still have a can of it. Do you want to try it?"
Song Wei nodded very vigorously and said, "You must try it."
"Can you make mushroom sauce from my mushrooms in two days?"
"You can make mushroom sauce with all the ingredients. It will take a day to make. But you have to wait until it is completely cold before you can pack it in a box."
Song Wei nodded: "Then I'll leave those mushrooms to you."
While Li Juan was cooking, Song Wei took a stick and went to knock on the pine cones.
Crack out all the pine nuts and chestnuts. The pine nuts need to be fried to make them more fragrant.
Song Wei planned to wait until the mushroom sauce was ready, put it in two large jars and add some mountain products. He would find time in the next two days to go to the post office to send it to the big brother in this body.
I remember that although we rarely met the older brother who was a soldier, in order for his sister to live a good life, he not only sent most of his allowance back home, but also often bought some things that girls liked and sent them back.
Unfortunately, those things were taken away by the ungrateful father and stepmother and given to the daughter brought back by the stepmother.
Song Wei planned to write a letter to explain clearly the situation of going to the countryside and the situation of her ungrateful father's family, so that the brother would not be unaware of the situation and send money home.
Song Wei was an orphan in her previous life, and suddenly she has a brother in this life. Although she took advantage of the original owner, she still greedily wanted to maintain this family relationship.
In fact, she also has an uncle who is engaged in scientific research. Her brother’s place in the army was obtained through the relationship with this uncle.
But due to the current situation, my uncle was reported to have stayed abroad for a period of time and was demoted two years ago.
Song Wei didn't know where she was sent to, nor did she know if there was any news from her brother.
"Song Zhiqing has eaten."
After all the pine nuts were knocked down, Li Juan came to call her.
Maybe they scolded that group of people badly yesterday, so they didn't hang around Song Wei and Li Juan today. The fish was brought into the room right after it was cooked, and the smell was not strong.
So the two of them were able to eat the delicious stewed fish in peace.
It was a big fish, and Li Juan was full after eating only a little. Song Wei almost ate up all the rest and also ate a few sweet potato steamed buns.
She ate with relish, her movements were not rough but fast, and she ate very cleanly.
To be honest, Song Wei is pretty and it is very pleasing to watch her eat, but I can't help but think that she eats too much.
Li Juan felt overwhelmed just by looking at it.
"Song Wei, do you have enough food?"
When they first came to the countryside, each educated youth received a subsidy of 20 kilograms of coarse grains and 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes, which was enough to last for about a month.
But according to Song Wei's eating habits, it would be finished in less than ten days, let alone a month.
Li Juan started to worry about her.
But Song Wei herself was not worried at all: "My brother will send me some food."
She was lying. Song Wei planned to go to the county town in two days, send the things to her brother and then look for the black market.
Li Juan believed it and stopped worrying. Instead, she envied her for having a brother who still cared about her.
After finishing the meal, the two began to wash mushrooms. After washing half a basin, the team leader came.
Song Wei and Li Juan both thought of what they discussed with the team leader yesterday, and their eyes suddenly lit up.
The two men immediately came forward and looked at him eagerly like pugs.
The captain felt his scalp tingling under the gazes of the two of them. He shook his pipe and said unhappily.
"Okay, I've discussed what you two are talking about with the other team leaders. It's feasible, but we have to ask the other educated youth for their opinions."
Song Wei almost blurted out that they had no objection.
But under the captain's gaze, she still called out to everyone else to gather together.
There are a total of twelve educated youth, both new and old, in the Youth League Institute, seven men and five women. There are four newcomers, her, Bai Yunjiao, Gao Le and Zhao Su, and the rest are old educated youth.
After the captain briefly explained the situation, everyone's eyes turned to Li Juan and Song Wei.
Xu Lai Di was even more angry: "Some people really think their vegetables are treasures, guarding them like thieves. Who would care about them?"
Song Wei rolled her eyes and said, "If you don't want it, don't eat it."
The captain said with a serious face: "I came here to ask you for your own opinions, not to quarrel with you."
Gao Le: "I don't care. It's actually pretty good this way."
Zhao Su nodded: "I can do anything."
Anyway, he would never grow his own vegetables even if he was beaten to death. It would be so tiring and he would just be bored.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He had a wrinkled expression as he was thinking about something else. Today, everyone had to make their own food. He and Gao Le ate two bowls of porridge and their faces turned green.
He needs to find someone to cook with him. He can't go on like this.
Luo Yecheng: "This is not good. It is not conducive to the unity of the educated youth."
Song Wei choked: "Do you think what happened yesterday was conducive to the unity of the educated youth?"
Luo Yecheng: …………
"It was only temporary."
"Can you guarantee that Xu Lai Di or anyone else will not pick the vegetables grown by Li Juan in the future? Or can you guarantee that they can grow vegetables themselves?"
He can guarantee nothing.
Except for Luo Yecheng and Bai Yunjiao's one bootlicker, the other three male educated youth also agreed.
The main reason is that I was really scared after being scolded yesterday. It would be nice to have a small vegetable garden of my own. It doesn’t take much effort anyway, and no one else can pick their vegetables in the future.
Now the majority of people agreed, and the matter was settled.
The captain also explained the rules.
"You can only use the three-foot area next to the back door of your room. No more than that. It's up to you whether to circle or not."
"Okay, thank you, Captain~"
Song Wei and Li Juan happily agreed.
Only Luo Yecheng and Xu Laidie had unhappy expressions.
But the matter was settled, and after seeing the captain off with a forced smile on their faces, the expressions on their faces immediately fell.
Xu Laidi stared at Song Wei and Li Juan with hatred.
Song Wei glanced over and said, "What? You want to fight?"
Xu Lai-ti: …………
Damn it, how could Song Wei look so weak but still have so much strength! Because she was so excited, Li Juan followed Song Wei directly to her room, and kept talking about how to plan the three-acre land.
"Song Wei, what vegetables are you going to grow? Let's go find the aunt in the village and exchange some radish and cabbage seeds. These are the only two vegetables we can eat in winter."
"Not necessarily."
Song Wei suddenly had an idea and said, "In addition to these two, try some other vegetables."
Li Juan looked confused and said, "You have to listen to me. Winter comes early here, and other vegetables can't survive."
Song Wei didn't explain too much. After all, he had to try it first to see if it would work.
"I'll change them first and plant them in spring."
