The three new educated youth have not been assigned a place to stay yet, so let them have lunch with the old educated youth first.
"Mom! Is it okay to arrange those educated youth to other families in the brigade?" Tian Lisong asked Old Lady Tian for her opinion.
"That's not impossible, but you have to select the educated youth carefully, and avoid those who are always whining! And it's best to pick old educated youth, whose temperaments we all know, so that they won't easily come into conflict with others!" said Old Mrs. Tian.
"If the people in the brigade are not happy about it, you can tell them to let the educated youth live with them for a while, and then you can quickly build a house for them."
Tian Lisong thought so too. He planned to go to Tian Ligang to discuss it after dinner.
After dinner, Tian Lisong went to arrange matters for the educated youth.
Tian Tian was curious about what the new educated youth looked like, so she followed them.
This rural area is really boring. Although there is a lot of work to do in the fields, Old Mrs. Tian doesn't let Tian Tian do it.
Tian Tian doesn't have much to do at home except doing housework. Although there are a lot of gossips, no one will tell Tian Tian.
Now that the new educated youth have arrived, Tian Tian also wants to join in the fun.
When they arrived at the educated youth center, they had just finished their meal and were cleaning the table in the yard. Li Jiuniang turned around and saw Tian Tian, and nodded slightly to her as a greeting.
Although they have been in contact a little more during this period, in the eyes of outsiders, there is still no connection between them.
This contact also made Tian Tian realize that Li Jiuniang just had a low emotional intelligence and was sometimes not very good at speaking, but she didn't have any bad intentions.
Tian Tian didn't go in either. She stood outside the gate of the educated youth center and looked inside. After one look, she quickly walked away as if she was passing by.
She saw three unfamiliar faces sitting at the table, all of whom were quite handsome.
One is more like a Korean male star, with fair skin and a small oval face.
One of them looks very gentle, wears glasses, and has a bookish air. You can tell at first glance that he is an intellectual, and he has a bit of the temperament of the second male lead.
The other one is the look that Chinese people like very much, especially handsome, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and a crew cut. He looks a bit like the male protagonist in the martial arts dramas in the 1990s. This look is the look that the aunts and sisters-in-law especially like nowadays, and Tian Tian also likes it.
Tian Tian looked at the three men and touched her chin thoughtfully. Just looking at these three people, it is impossible to tell who the male lead is. Each of them seems to be a good match for Li Jiuniang, and each of them is very handsome and has the feeling of being the male lead.
Throughout the entire book, she only remembered Li Jiuniang's name and that she had a space. She didn't remember the rest at all, let alone what the male protagonist looked like.
"Tian Tian! What do you want to talk to me about?" Tian Tian was suddenly patted on the back. She was startled and turned around, only to find that the person who patted her was Li Jiuniang.
Tian Tian was a little confused. "Me? I'm fine! I just passed by the Youth League Center! And then I took a look inside!"
Li Jiuniang smiled after hearing this, "Oh! I saw you looked at me just now, and I thought you had something to talk to me about, so I found an excuse to come out."
It was noon now, and everyone would take a nap in the house after dinner. The two of them were talking on the street, not afraid of being seen.
Besides, there were not many houses in this area, and there were piles of firewood on both sides of the road, shielding the two of them.
"It seems like there are new educated youths coming to your educated youth camp." Tian Tian inquired cautiously.
"Yes!" Li Jiuniang smiled calmly, "Three male educated youth came. They all came this morning. One is from Liao Province, and the other two are from Beijing Province. The one from Liao Province is called Gu Zhao, the one from Beijing Province is called Fang Siwen, and the other one is called Qin Changfeng."
"Oh!" Tian Tian nodded. Although Tian Tian couldn't match the names yet, both these three faces and those three names looked very similar to the male protagonist.
She looked up at Li Jiuniang, her mind moved, and she came forward to gossip, "Do you find any of these three people particularly pleasing to your eyes?"
Li Jiuniang gave Tian Tian a strange look, "What's so pleasing about her? She only has two eyes, a nose, and a mouth, right? Besides, it's our first meeting, and I'm embarrassed to stare at her."
Tian Tian was startled by Li Jiuniang's look. She thought the question she had just asked was a bit inappropriate, so she immediately shut up and stopped asking.
"Then I'll leave first. My dad asked me to go to Fourth Uncle's house to borrow something." Tian Tian said and prepared to slip away.
"Wait a moment!" Li Jiuniang called Tian Tian.
Tian Tian turned to look at Li Jiuniang in confusion, "Can you give me some chili peppers? I can exchange them for something!"
"Chili peppers?" Tian Tian thought for a moment. No one in her family likes spicy food, so there are not many chili peppers planted in the field. She could get some for Li Jiuniang in exchange.
But before, she had always exchanged things with Li Jiuniang using wild vegetables picked from the mountains and crickets picked from the fields, and had never exchanged with her using vegetables grown in her home vegetable garden. Tian Tian felt that this was a bit inappropriate.
"Then I have to go back and ask my grandma!" Tian Tian didn't lack anything, it all depended on what Grandma Tian needed.
However, Tian Tian felt that Old Lady Tian might not agree. Last time when it came to the soybean paste, Old Lady Tian was actually a little reluctant, but she didn't show it, so this time it would be difficult.
"Okay! Please ask for me, but if you want something, just tell me and I'll see if I can get it for you." Li Jiuniang said.
Tian Tian agreed and slipped away. She walked a little further and plucked a few more cherry branches. The cherries would soon be out of season, and if they were not eaten, the ones with little defects would all fall to the ground and rot.
Tian Tian took a few cherries and slipped back home through the firewood piles on both sides of the road.
At home, Old Mrs. Tian was putting on the veil. Tian Tian ran over and sat next to Old Mrs. Tian. She organized her words and told her what Li Jiuniang had said.
Old Mrs. Tian frowned when she heard this. "It's just some peppers. We don't eat them much. If she wants to eat them, you can pick some and give them to her. Why are you talking about exchanging them? Those peppers are not worth much. You can't always take advantage of her."
Tian Tian listened and said, "Then I'll pick some peppers and send them to Li Zhiqing?"
"Go!" Old Mrs. Tian said lightly, lowering her head and putting on the veil.
Tian Tian went to the backyard to pick some peppers, put them in a basket and prepared to send them to Li Jiuniang.
When Tian Tian went to the educated youth's site carrying a basket, he happened to see his father Tian Lisong talking to the three educated youth.
"Tian Tian? Why are you here?" Tian Lisong asked.
"Oh! Aren't we going to be able to eat all these peppers at home? I thought of sending some to the youth camp there. Isn't the youth camp short of vegetables?" Tian Tian said.
Tian Tian looked behind Tian Lisong curiously, and her eyes moved between the three people.
The man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and the man wearing glasses and with a bookish air looked at Tian Tian and nodded. Tian Tian also nodded slightly to them.
Tian Lisong had no doubts. Although the educated youths grew vegetables, the yard was small and they didn't grow much. The vegetables they grew were not enough for them to eat. There were also a few families who had a good relationship with the old educated youths who would send them vegetables, so Tian Tian's behavior was not too abrupt.
Tian Tian went to find Li Jiuniang to give her peppers. As soon as she turned around, she heard a voice, "Accountant Tian, if possible, can I live with other people in the team? It doesn't matter if the conditions are a little worse, I can serve pigs and cows. I am more used to living alone and I don't get along well with others."
