The child wanted to eat someone else's chicken leg, but the parents didn't know how to educate him properly. He grew up to be a useless person, and the couple will suffer the consequences.
"Eat, eat, eat! All you ever do is eat. I'm going to eat you to death!" The woman pinched her son's ear and dragged him home.
Wenxi knew she was being sarcastic, so she replied loudly, "The grain that arrived this afternoon was donated by me. Be careful when you eat my grain, don't choke to death."
Then there was no sound outside.
Around three or four o'clock in the afternoon, carts carrying the grain donated by Wenxi returned. People in the yard rushed out to check, and everyone was overjoyed to see so much grain.
Before, we could only eat until we were three-tenths full. Now that we have so much food, we should be able to eat until we are seven or eight-tenths full, right?
"This batch of grain was donated to our unit by Qin Mi's wife, Liangliang. We want to express our sincerest gratitude to Qin Mi and Liangliang," Uncle Wang said, clapping excitedly as he looked at Qin Mi and Wen Xi.
Then a burst of enthusiastic applause rang out.
In the afternoon, the woman kept her head down and her neck hunched over, trying to minimize her presence, afraid that Qin Mi and the others would remember that incident and kick her family out when it came time to distribute the grain.
Wenxi took out a piece of cloth and said, "To prevent everyone from using my grain for personal gain, please come over and sign this document to guarantee that you will not steal grain, sell grain, give grain to others, use my grain to marry a wife, treat the girl unfairly, or spread this matter around."
Wenxi originally intended to distribute the food to each household, but this was everyone's dormitory, not their home, and there was nothing to cook with, so the food could only be kept in the canteen.
The person in charge of cooking in the canteen is crucial because he comes into contact with food every day. What if he cuts everyone's food rations?
If the grain is distributed to everyone, what if some people send it home and then ask her for more grain?
She only cares about the people here; everyone else is none of her business.
So, by having everyone sign and put their fingerprints on the agreement, and by having the system impose constraints on everyone, the grain can then be consumed by everyone.
Uncle Wang was the first to sign and put his fingerprint on the cloth, and then everyone else did the same. Although Wang Xiao was unwilling, she still signed it because she didn't want to be hungry and drink cold water anymore.
If she hadn't met Qin Mi here, she would have returned to the city to live a good life long ago. Why would she be living a miserable life in this wretched place?
Everyone who worked and lived in this compound signed and sealed the agreement, and then they delivered the grain to the kitchen. Several thousand kilograms of grain were enough to feed everyone for several months.
Two buckets of spring water were distributed to each person, since there was a well in the courtyard that could be used for cooking, so everyone could take the spring water home to drink!
As temperatures rise and it gets hotter, people can drink spring water directly from the mountains instead of hot water.
Every night before going to bed and every morning before getting up, Wen Xi would check the check-in system to see if two people had 'teleported' to the system. If they hadn't, it meant there was no way to go back yet.
That noon, Wenxi had just woken up from her afternoon nap when she heard a loud banging on the door.
It is clearly not Qin Mi.
Although Wenxi goes to the countryside with Qin Mi every day to distribute spring water and daily necessities in the guise of the Mountain Goddess, she is occasionally allowed to rest for a day. After all, it is tiring to be out and about every day. Today, Wenxi is resting at home.
Wen Xi checked herself and then looked at Qin Mi's dormitory. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, she went to open the door. To her surprise, Wang Xiao was standing outside with a group of people, looking quite menacing.
Wang Xiao proudly put her hands on her hips and said, "Liangliang, didn't you marry Qin Mi? Where's your marriage certificate? Please show it to us so we can confirm that you are husband and wife. If you can't produce it, then it means you're just being a scoundrel."
"Wang Xiao, don't you know that holding a wedding banquet at this time of year means getting married? Ask your parents whether they held a wedding banquet or got a marriage certificate when they got married more than 20 years ago. If holding a wedding banquet doesn't count as getting married, then people in the countryside don't get married, right?"
Wang Xiao was taken aback by Wen Xi's words, but after a moment's thought, he realized that using this to target Wen Xi was really inappropriate, because in this day and age, too many couples only hold a wedding banquet and do not register their marriage. As long as they hold a banquet, they are considered husband and wife and can live together.
"Everyone only knows your name is Liangliang, but they don't know your surname. Please take out your household registration book and ID card so everyone can verify your identity. This isn't a place where just anyone can come here." Wang Xiao looked at Wen Xi smugly.
Wen Xi smiled faintly, "Since the family members can't come here, then I'll trouble you and Aunt Wang to move out first. Only if you set an example will we family members move out with you. We will follow your decision."
Wang Xiao's face turned pale again from being choked. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard the sound of a car. Wen Xi turned her head and saw Qin Mi driving back.
Qin Mi got out of the car and walked over quickly, asking worriedly, "Liangliang, what happened?"
"It's all because of Wang Xiao. She's using Uncle Wang's status to try and kick us family members out. I made it clear to her that if they can set an example and move out first, then I'll move out too. Once all the freeloaders are gone, it'll save you guys some food."
"Liangliang, you're talking nonsense," Wang Xiao jumped in and accused. "You're just dodging the question and refusing to produce your household registration book and ID. You wouldn't...
Just then, someone outside the courtyard gate called out, "Comrade Qin Mi, there's an urgent letter for you."
"Comrade, could you please bring this in for us?" Qin Mi replied.
Soon, the postman, dressed in a military green uniform, came in and handed an envelope to Qin Mi. Qin Mi hurriedly opened the letter and took out his household registration book, ID card, and marriage certificate. He unfolded these documents and showed them to everyone one by one. "You can all read, right? Can you understand this? This is my wife's household registration book, ID card, and our marriage certificate. It was stolen on the train, but our family has replaced them with new ones. Do you have any questions?"
Wenxi took the household registration book and identity certificate, and when she saw the name column, she froze.
Hao Liangliang?
What is this name?
But now that she has these things, she is no longer an unregistered resident, and she doesn't have to worry about being checked when she goes to other places.
"No, no." The people from the commune glared at Wang Xiao and then turned away angrily, making them come all for nothing.
