"Ye Zhiqing, are you home? I'll bring someone to open the back door for you."
Ye Nanyi heard the captain's voice and hurried out.
"Uncle, please help me, and then give each of you two pieces of candy."
Everyone who comes to work feels embarrassed because Ye Nanyi is teasing them. Take two pieces of candy before you start working.
Ye Nanyiyi didn't care. She always followed the rules of propriety and no one would blame her.
"Ye Zhiqing, look at the line I drew for you. I plan to open a door for you here. I'll bring the door with me."
Ye Nanyi took a look. Although she didn't understand, she could still understand the general location.
"Uncle, sure, you do it!"
With Ye Nanyi's approval, several people came to do the work and started working.
"Ye Zhiqing, this is your food. You came at an unfortunate time, and this is all we have. Fortunately, the autumn harvest is coming soon, and you can buy some from the brigade later."
Ye Nanyi was confused at first, wondering why the captain was pushing such a big cart! It turned out that in addition to the things she needed, it also contained food for the five of them.
"Okay, I'll let them get it themselves."
Ye Nanyi turned around and knocked on several doors.
"Zeng Zhiqing, the captain has brought us some rations, go get them!"
Zeng Bailing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go now. I'll go get Zheng Zhiqing."
Ye Nanyi was so happy to hear this, as it saved her the trouble of making a trip.
And the captain Qi Shengguo, who was waiting there, was very satisfied with Ye Nanyi's approach. After all, when it came to food, it was better for him to get it himself.
After all five people gathered, the captain asked everyone to take their own share.
Ye Nanyi already knew that it was coarse food, so she had no objection and directly put it in the rice bucket she had smuggled out of the space.
"Captain, why are they all coarse grains? I want to eat rice. This makes my throat sore!"
Zeng Bailing's voice was neither loud nor soft, just right for the old educated youth who had just returned from work to hear it.
But they were tired from work and didn't feel like saying anything. Anyway, they had to entertain the new educated youth in the evening, so they would talk about it later!
The captain's face turned black. What was he yelling about?
"Zeng Zhiqing, there is only coarse grain in the team. If you want to eat rice, wait for the autumn harvest! If you work harder and get enough work points, you can eat rice every day."
After the captain said hello to Ye Nanyi, he pushed the cart away.
No matter how naive Zeng Bailing was, she knew that she would offend others.
"Wang Fang, did I offend anyone?"
Wang Fang thinks that the character κΊ— is particularly good and obvious.
"Bai Ling, put your things back inside first! I don't think the captain will be angry."
Ye Nanyi felt that Wang Fang was quite smart. The captain would not be too angry. He had been an educated youth for so many years. If he was angry, he would have died of anger long ago!
"Ye Zhiqing, your door has been installed, and the shape of the shed has been completed. Let's go first and come back to do the rest of the work tomorrow."
Ye Nanyi took a look at it and found it was indeed finished, with precise stitching and great craftsmanship.
"Thank you very much, uncles. I'll boil some water for you to drink before you leave!"
When everyone comes home from work, if they are thirsty, they can drink some water.
After taking the first sip, everyone tasted it, but they all had a tacit understanding and didn't say it out loud.
Everyone secretly decided that they must do a good job tomorrow.
After everyone left, Zheng Changhua came to find Ye Nanyiyi.
Ye Nanyi glanced at Zheng Changhua, and then glanced at the three people behind him. Hey guys, they are launching a spokesperson!
"Zheng Zhiqing, what do you want to ask?"
Ye Nanyi deliberately said "weird and strange".
As expected, Zheng Changhua got married.
"Well, I... I want to know why you opened a back door and nailed wooden boards on the wall at the back."
Zheng Changhua was afraid that he would not be able to explain the answer, so he asked the question all at once.
Ye Nanyiyi didn't make things difficult for him.
"I opened the back door for easy access because I'm going to fence off a plot of land to grow vegetables. I built the shed to store firewood because it's very cold here in winter."
Before Zheng Changhua could speak, Liu Sheng spoke first.
"Ye Zhiqing is right. You should prepare more firewood when you live by yourself. It's not only for cooking, but also for heating the kang in the cold winter."
"Everyone, we old educated youth are preparing a welcoming banquet tonight to welcome the new educated youth. I'm here to invite you to join us."
Ye Nanyiyi and the other four all agreed.
Although Ye Nanyiyi was not ready to open up to anyone, it was not good for him to be alone, so he could just observe what the old educated youth was like.
"Liu Zhiqing, please wait a moment. I'll get you something as a snack."
Ye Nanyi walked into the house and took out half a piece of bacon from home. Hmm! Just right.
"Liu Zhiqing, take it."
Liu Sheng didn't hesitate and took the bacon from Ye Nanyi.
The other four also took something, but it was not as eye-catching as the bacon.
That evening, Ye Nanyiyi and others arrived at the educated youth's kitchen on time.
The table was already filled with dishes, but the piece of bacon that Ye Nanyi brought was the most eye-catching.
"Okay, let me introduce myself before we start eating! My name is Liu Sheng, I'm 25 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for six years."
Next, the old educated youth introduced themselves in order.
"Wang Guojun, 22 years old, has been working in the countryside for three years."
"My name is Li Jianguo, I'm 24 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for five years."
"Wang Chao, 21 years old, went to the countryside for half a year."
"My name is Cao Wei, I'm 22 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for a year."
After the male educated youth finished their introduction, the female educated youth began their introduction.
"My name is Liu Lili, I'm 23 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for three years."
"Li Yao, 18 years old, went to the countryside for half a year."
"Li Yulan, 19 years old, went to the countryside for 1 year."
"Wang Shanshan, 20 years old, went to the countryside for 1 year."
"Yu Chunxiang, 19 years old, went to the countryside for half a year."
When Ye Nanyi heard the name, his body stiffened for a moment, but not long after, he was pulled by Wang Fang.
"Ye Zhiqing loves you."
Ye Nanyiyi finally reacted.
"My name is Ye Nanyi, and I'm 16 years old."
After introducing everything, Liu Sheng asked everyone to start eating.
Everyone was enjoying the meal, except Ye Nanyi, who had something on his mind.
After washing the dishes together, Ye Nanyiyi made the excuse of feeling unwell and wanted to go back to the dormitory to rest.
No one was reluctant, and with Ye Nanyi taking the lead, everyone went back to the dormitory to rest.
Ye Nanyiyi did not enter the room. He lay on the bed thinking about the name he had just heard, Yu Chunxiang.
This name is also a tragic figure in her memory.
Ye Nanyi sorted out the timeline, and it seemed to be after the autumn harvest.
Yu Chunxiang didn't know what was going on and fell into the river.
He was rescued by Qi Dawa, a second-rate boy in the village.
When Qi Dawa's mother Wang Xiulian saw this, she started spreading rumors everywhere.
It is said that Yu Chunxiang is already taken care of by his son, so who would want her in the future?
Yu Chunxiang explained that Wang Xiulian was talking nonsense, but no one believed her.
All kinds of rumors spread like wildfire in the village.
