Since Zhang Cuicao left, Su Ranran has been cooking to save herself the trouble.
They prepare all the meals for the day in the morning, and eat them for lunch and dinner.
Sometimes I make noodle soup in the morning.
I've been complaining to Hewan a lot lately about how bad the food is.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, He Wan smiled and said that she would invite her to have dinner here today.
Su Ranran was quite happy. She handed the clinic over to Xiuying without bringing any lunch, and returned with two white radishes given to her by a patient, intending to stew pork and vermicelli with He Wan.
As I passed the main gate, I saw Wang Jianguo and Zhang Deping coming in from outside, both of them looking rather grumpy.
Wang Jianguo, in particular, acted as if he hadn't seen her at all, returning to his dormitory with a dark expression.
Su Ranran turned around and stopped Zhang Deping behind her, whispering, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Deping frowned and whispered, "I ran into Ding Shaoling at the post office today. Usually, Ding Shaoling would avoid us or pretend not to see us when she sees us at the post office, but today, she came over and stopped us, saying she's getting married. Getting married is fine, but coming over to tell Jianguo is just adding fuel to the fire! I think she did it on purpose. She even said her boyfriend works in the government and that his family is so great. I feel like she just came over to show off. Do you think Jianguo can stand it?"
Su Ranran gasped, genuinely surprised that Ding Shaoling would do such a thing.
After returning home, he pulled He Wan aside and told her everything.
He Wan said, "Ding Shaoling is no good person. She knows that Wang Jianguo still has feelings for her, but she comes over at this time to say that she is getting married, and that the person is a government official. Isn't this just blatantly showing off to Wang Jianguo?"
"That's right, Captain Wang certainly didn't look well."
He Wan sat on the bed and sighed, "What is love in this world?"
Su Ranran chuckled at her pretentious attempt at writing: "Stop joking, hurry up and cook."
Wang Jianguo is bound to feel sad whenever he has to deal with Ding Shaoling.
Ding Shaoling worked at the post office. As educated youth, they had to keep in touch with their families all year round, sending and receiving letters and packages. It was inevitable that they would run into each other, and every time they did, they were heartbroken.
So they didn't take it seriously.
Two days later, Wang Jianguo suggested to the Party Secretary that they go back to their hometown to learn how to grow rice from the local agricultural bureau.
Based on this year's meager rice harvest, they would certainly agree to help the village grow rice.
So the Party Secretary readily approved it.
Seeing that this was a possible solution, Su Ranran quickly took leave and went to the county to call home.
He Wan watched the activity at the educated youth settlement from inside the house, thinking that there probably wouldn't be many people there this year.
On the day Su Ranran returned, He Wan took her to the train station.
When we returned, it started snowing.
Just as I was thinking of getting the electric scooter out and riding it back...
Suddenly, I saw a person climbing up the bridge in the distance, carrying something on their back.
He Wan didn't dare to ride her bike anymore and carefully walked forward. When she reached the bridge, she could see that it was Zhang Deping.
"Zhang Zhiqing?"
Zhang Deping was covered in snowflakes, and a female comrade was on his back.
Actually, she didn't see the girl's face, only two long braids on her head. The girl had many patches on her clothes, and her trousers were too short. In such cold weather, she was dressed so thinly, and she felt cold just looking at her.
When Zhang Deping heard someone calling him, he looked up and saw He Wan. He smiled with delight and said, "He, you educated youth, what a coincidence! Please come and help me."
"Zhang Zhiqing, what's wrong?"
"I was on my way to the county town today, and I had just gotten here when I saw this girl fall off the bridge. Luckily, I saw it."
He Wan exclaimed in surprise and quickly pulled them up.
As the snow melted, He Wan pulled the girl who looked to be over 1.6 meters tall, but she was lighter than Xiu Ju.
"She's so thin."
As He Wan spoke, she touched her nose and found she was still breathing.
Zhang Deping came up panting and said, "She was probably starving. I don't know which village she was from. It's snowing and so cold. She must have been hungry and cold. If no one had found her, she probably would have died here."
"Zhang Zhiqing, what should we do? Should we carry her to our village first?"
"This is the only way."
He Wan noticed it was getting late; if she went to the commune, it would probably be closed by then.
So Zhang Deping carried her on his back, with He Wan supporting her from behind, and they returned to the educated youth settlement.
