Song Jin is a person who fears trouble. Ever since she knew that she was traveling through a book, she rarely even goes out, let alone go to the educated youth center, for fear that she would be involved in any plot.
However, no matter how far she hides, there are still people who don't want to let her go.
There have been a lot of lively events in the village recently, most of which happened at the captain's house.
A few days ago, the news that the captain's family split up and the eldest son became a live-in son-in-law spread out. The news quickly fermented in various intelligence centers in the village, and people said all kinds of things. It was really lively for two days.
The heat seemed to be dying down, but on the third day, the gangster Chen Liang actually found a job as a driver in the county transport team. This was much more exciting than the split.
The lazy and glutton that everyone looked down upon before suddenly became a hot commodity. People in the village told everyone they met that Chen Liang was no ordinary kid from a young age and would definitely have a great future.
Chen Liang...
Last time you advised me to work hard or I would starve to death sooner or later.
The matchmakers in the neighborhood heard the news and the threshold of the captain's house was almost broken down by people.
Then word got out that Chen Liang had a girl he liked, and that the other party had helped him find this job, so he couldn't do anything to let her down.
Then there were whispers in the village saying that Chen Liang was a gigolo, and some people even asked their sons to ask him for advice on how to meet a rich girl.
Chen Liang's class didn't start because he had already started work on the fourth day. After handing over his work, the factory assigned him a dormitory. It was also in the tube building, but on the top floor, a small single room with only a bed, a small table, and a chair. There was not much else to put in.
Then Chen Liang began to learn to drive in the county town.
Half a month later, Song Jin finally had a rainy day, so she could stay at home for the whole day without going out.
But someone came to the door at noon. It was Niu Li, the team leader of the educated youth site.
"Song Zhiqing, this morning, a few of us male Zhiqing went up the mountain to collect firewood and shot a pheasant. You've been in the countryside for so long and haven't stayed at the Zhiqing camp. Plus, it's been busy farming season, so you don't know everyone very well yet. So, we decided to take advantage of not having to work today to have a meal together so we can get to know each other. After all, we all come from all corners of the country, and it's fate that we're here. I've already talked to the team leader and the others, and they have no objections. You don't have to cook tonight, just come to the Zhiqing camp for dinner."
Niu Li was afraid Song Jin would refuse, so he launched into a long discussion, not giving Song Jin a chance to speak, even bringing up the team leader. As the head of the educated youth group, if he couldn't even handle something as simple as inviting someone to dinner, how would anyone else respect him? So, along the way, he mentally prepared himself for how to convince Song Jin and how to handle any objections.
However, Song Jin thought about it and wanted to know what these people were planning, so he agreed to go there in the afternoon.
Before leaving, Niu Li specifically reminded her that she didn't need to bring her own rations, and a little extra for each of them would be enough.
Of course Song Jin couldn't go empty-handed. People usually eat around five o'clock nowadays. She went out at four o'clock and brought half a pound of peach cakes and a small piece of bacon.
She exchanged this bacon from Aunt Hua's house for a cloth coupon.
She had already eaten a few meals, and she took the remaining little with her. After all, she couldn't eat too much bacon, and she wasn't used to it.
When I arrived at the educated youth site, I saw everyone was cooking. Most of the male educated youth were in the yard, and except for a few female educated youth in the yard, the rest of the female educated youth were in the kitchen.
Niu Li greeted Song Jin as soon as he saw her coming. The others who had wanted to pick a fight with her for waiting until mealtime didn't dare to say anything when they saw what was in her hand, and they even swallowed their saliva.
Niu Li tried to refuse a few times, saying that she was not allowed to bring anything, and Song Jin didn't say much, and no one else would say anything either.
Who can resist delicious food? Song Jin gave the meat to one of the female educated youth, and they quickly fried some cabbage with the bacon.
After a while, the food was on the table.
A large bowl of roasted chicken with potatoes, a plate of stir-fried cabbage with bacon, a plate of shredded potatoes, and a plate of stir-fried rapeseed.
There was a bowl of cornmeal steamed buns in the middle, and next to it was the peach cakes that Song Jin had just brought.
The group of people started to eat happily, and Song Jin really couldn't compete with them. It seemed that these people really hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
