Chapter 25 More Work, More Pay
"Mmm... it's so delicious, I can't wait to swallow my tongue. I need to eat first, I'll tell you later."
After Wen Lin finished speaking, she stuffed her mouth full of rice, and her hands picked up dishes faster.
"If it tastes good, eat more. Eat slowly. It's enough. I haven't had a good meal during this trip, so I need to savor it slowly."
Ye Siran deliberately acted pitiful. In fact, she had eaten very well in the space along the way. The large kitchen in the villa was equipped with advanced equipment.
There were fresh ingredients in the refrigerator, so she slaughtered a chicken and had either stir-fried chicken with tea tree mushrooms, stewed chicken with potatoes, or stir-fried vegetables with shiitake mushrooms. Every meal was delicious.
“Of course, I’ve only eaten some candy and biscuits to fill my stomach these past few days, and I only dream of having a hot meal.
If I hadn't met you, I would definitely be hungry like Xia Tiantian now.
Let me tell you, I was washing vegetables by the well just now and Xia Tiantian was so mad. I can't eat too slowly, because it would be bad if she smells the fragrance and comes over to ask for food! ”
The way she wolfed down the food was in stark contrast to Ye Siran's slow chewing, but she no longer cared about her image.
She really irritated Xia Tiantian just now!
"Why would she be so angry just because you were washing vegetables?" Ye Siran asked curiously. Could it be that Wen Lin was showing off to others again?
Her high-profile personality can easily arouse jealousy, and if she fails to protect her money, it will indeed be easy for her to get into trouble.
"Of course, you don't know. Xia Tiantian is so annoying. She said I don't have to do anything at home. Coming here, I not only have to work, but also eat grass!"
"So you told her that we were going to have bacon and rice tonight? And what you washed wasn't grass, but vegetables sent by the aunt in the village?"
"Oh my God! That's what I said. Ranran, did you follow me to the well just now?" Wen Lin was stunned for a moment, then asked with wide eyes.
"I didn't go. I know you like to show off. I guessed it. Did Xia Tiantian stamp her feet and say that Shishi would buy some meat later?"
"That's right, that's right. I just said, I don't know if there's any pork for sale here, and she was so upset! Hahahaha..."
Wen Lin smiled triumphantly, her heart blossoming with joy. She looked at Ye Siran with a smile, her eyes full of admiration, twinkling like stars.
She stared at Ye Siran with her clear eyes, and Ye Siran was stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly.
"Ran Ran, you look so beautiful when you smile. Suddenly, everything around me pales in comparison."
Ye Siran and the other person were eating and chatting, and before they finished they saw Xia Tiantian really walking towards them.
There was a group of old educated youth following behind her, so Ye Siran and the other person tacitly stopped talking and quickened their eating pace.
Xia Tiantian walked over quickly and saw that the pot and bowls were empty, leaving only the aroma of bacon and rice in the air. She swallowed hard.
She angrily accused, "Wen Lin, we are all educated youth, but you two are secretly eating alone?"
"Yes, how can you eat alone? You are new here and don't know any rules. If you bring delicious food from home, you should invite us to taste it."
A dark and thin male educated youth said with contempt that although his family lived in the city, it was a small county town and the conditions were very poor.
When he went to the countryside two years ago, he didn't bring much money except for some basic daily necessities.
He had not received any packages in the two years since he went to the countryside, and his life was very difficult. New educated youth would bring some delicious food even if their families were poor.
"Two ladies, you are new here. You will need our care a lot in the future."
"We are educated youth gathered together from all corners of the country. Don't act as if we are excluding you!" said a female educated youth in a sarcastic tone.
Seeing Wen Lin blushing from all the gossip, Ye Siran quickly stood up in front of her and said, "Who are you bullying?
Village chief Qu has told us that the educated youth in Gaotang Village all choose by themselves who to live in the cave with and cook for themselves.
Wen Lin and I live in the same cave, so it's legitimate for us to eat together. What's more, we bring our own food with us, so how can we eat it secretly? ”
"You just brought some delicious food from home, you should share it with everyone." A male educated youth said righteously.
"Why should we share what we brought with us with you? If you have the guts, go to the village chief's house and rob him?" Wen Lin said angrily.
"Yes, they just came from home and brought enough food and money with them. They can eat whatever they want. After all, they will be the ones who will be hungry later."
A male educated youth from a good family echoed and said that he admired the courage of the two girls.
Unlike when he first arrived, he didn't know how expensive food and daily necessities were, and relying on his money, he foolishly invited everyone to eat together.
After a few months, the packages sent from home were not enough to feed so many people, and he himself became much thinner due to hunger.
So he secretly hid some food, and when someone saw it, they would blame him for being stingy, just like what he is doing now.
He was so angry that he wrote home and asked them to send him things. If they were to starve, they would starve together. His family’s money didn’t come from the wind.
There were only ten educated youth who came with Xia Tiantian, seven men and three women, all of them looked pale and thin.
Ye Siran heard from Chen Wei on the way that Gaotang Village was too poor and the educated youth who came here would try to go back, and if that was not possible, they would try to transfer to other villages.
“…”
The ten old educated youths blushed at what Ye Siran said. They thought that these two delicate and weak city people knew nothing.
But I didn’t expect that he knew so much!
Yu Bingkun, the leader of the educated youth team, saw that Ye Siran had a face like a fairy. She seemed thin and weak, but what she said was impeccable.
Especially those eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and seemed to hide a faint loneliness in the endless darkness.
He couldn't help but soften his voice and asked, "May I ask your names, educated youth?"
"Her name is Wen Lin, and mine is Ye Siran. May I ask your name? I hope you can give me your guidance in the future."
"I'm the leader of the educated youth team in Gaotang Village, Yu Bingkun. I can't give you any advice, but feel free to ask me if you have any questions. You're new here, so go to bed early because you have to start work tomorrow!"
He turned to everyone and said, "You all go back to cook and have a rest early, and continue working tomorrow."
They also ate together at the beginning, but what was worrying was not the lack of food but the unequal distribution of food, so they started quarreling while eating!
At the beginning, these villagers also felt sorry for the educated youth because they were city children.
So we take good care of them and try our best to arrange some easy work for them.
Despite this, they still found it difficult and would argue over whose turn it was to cook.
The village chief was so angry that he no longer took care of them. Whoever worked more would get higher work points, and would also get more grain during the autumn harvest.
To put it simply, the more you work, the more you earn. You don't have to work either, as long as you have food to eat.
