When we returned to the brigade, it was already past lunch time. The old educated youth had already finished their meal and were sitting down to rest.
When Kang Xuede saw that everyone was there, he asked them what their plans were for dinner.
"We used to eat together. The female educated youth were responsible for cooking and washing dishes, while the male educated youth were responsible for fetching water and collecting firewood."
Kang Xuede explained to them how to share meals, "The food is all put together. If you want to eat together, you can join the group."
Lin Fang added, "If you want to cook your own food, you can use the pot, but you'll need to fetch water and firewood."
As expected, the newly arrived educated youth chose to eat with everyone.
Lin Fang asked Xu Miaomiao what she thought. She had a good impression of this young educated youth. He was well-behaved, smiled whenever he spoke, and had two dimples on his face.
Xu Miaomiao thought about her past life and decisively chose to cook for herself.
She is no longer in the state where she knows nothing as she did when she first came here in her previous life. Thinking about the troubles that might arise in the future at the educated youth camp due to how much food they eat, Xu Miaomiao is more determined to cook for herself.
At first glance, Xu Miaomiao is the kind of girl who was spoiled at home. She doesn't want to eat from the big pot and wants to eat something good by herself. Everyone said that they can understand that.
Only Zhao Sumei is making her presence felt all the time.
"She's a young lady, how can she eat the same simple meals as us?"
Zhao Sumei shook her head and spoke sarcastically, but Xu Miaomiao showed no expression. She just stretched out her hand as if admiring it carefully.
After reading it, he looked at Zhao Sumei, who was like a fighting cock, with a smile on his face, "What's wrong? Doesn't your face hurt anymore?"
Xu Miaomiao had an innocent look on her face, which made Li Fei's hair stand on end. He had seen how Xu Miaomiao beat up Zhao Sumei on the train.
That’s how she smiled before she hit someone last time!!!
Li Fei quickly grabbed Zhao Sumei and said, "Stop talking, stop talking."
Zhao Sumei wanted to say a few more words, but when she saw Xu Miaomiao's outstretched white and slender little hand, she didn't dare to.
The others were confused and had no idea what was going on.
Xu Miaomiao thought that if she cooked by herself, she would not be able to share a pot with them. There were so many people in the educated youth group, and she would not have time to cook after they had finished cooking.
It seems that she still needs to buy a pot and build a stove herself, but she really doesn't know how to do this.
Xu Miaomiao thought about it, smiled complacently, went back to the house, got a bag of snacks and two boxes of cigarettes, and went to the captain's house.
Chen Jianghe's house is one of the few blue brick and tile houses in the team. The whole family has not yet separated, and there are a total of five houses.
The old couple lives in one room, their sons live in one room each, and there is another room that serves as the main hall and kitchen.
When Xu Miaomiao arrived, Chen Jianghe was sitting under the eaves smoking.
Xu Miaomiao had little dealings with this father-in-law in her previous life and had only met him a few times. After Chen Chen left, she lost contact with them.
"Xu Zhiqing is here. Is there anything wrong?" Chen Jianghe knocked his pipe against the wall.
Xu Miaomiao didn't beat around the bush and just said she needed his help with something.
Chen Jianghe stood up, slipping on his shoes, and asked her to follow him into the house to talk.
Xu Miaomiao followed him into the main room and saw that the doors of several rooms were closed. She thought that everyone was taking a lunch break, so she spoke in a low voice.
"Uncle Chen, this is what I'm talking about. I don't want to cook with the educated youth at the camp. I want to build a simple stove myself, so I'd like you to help me find someone."
Xu Miaomiao said as she placed the things in her hand on the table next to him.
"Well, it's not a big deal. Most men in the village know this."
Chen Jianghe took two puffs of his cigarette and thought about the candidates. He would come at another time, but right now everyone was busy working in the fields to earn a cent.
Those who don't work in the fields are all second-rate people, and he doesn't feel comfortable letting them help the young educated youth with work.
Xu Miaomiao thought he was worried about the wages, so he quickly said, "Uncle Chen, don't worry, I will pay you."
Chen Jianghe waved his hand. "It's not about the money. It's just that all the workers in the team are busy with spring plowing."
As soon as Chen Jianghe finished speaking, Wang Yan pushed the door open and came out. She glanced at Xu Miaomiao before speaking.
"What's so difficult about this? Doesn't our San'er not work in the fields? Let him go!"
Wang Yan is considered tall among lesbians, at about 1.72 meters, with a big frame and looks quite strong.
All three sons inherited her genes. They are tall, have big frames, and look very imposing.
These words touched Xu Miaomiao's heart. Although she had no plans to do anything before Chen Chen divorced, it was still okay to talk.
Xu Miaomiao quickly spoke up, fearing that Chen Jianghe would object, "You're talking about Brother Chen Chen, right? Then please trouble him!"
When Wang Yan heard that she knew her son, she was surprised. However, this girl looked like a child from a wealthy family, so how could she know San'er?
"Do you know my San'er?"
Xu Miaomiao pursed her lips and wanted to laugh. She didn't expect that Chen Chen called her San'er at home!
Xu Miaomiao suppressed a smile and said, "Yes, Brother Chen Chen saved me before!"
After hearing this, Wang Yan had no more doubts and knocked on Chen Chen's door without waiting for Chen Jianghe to speak.
"San'er, come out for a moment!"
Xu Miaomiao wanted to laugh when she heard this name, but Chen Chen had already come out, so she could only hold it back.
When Chen Chen heard that he was going to work for Xu Miaomiao, he didn't want to go. He didn't want to have too much contact with her.
But Wang Yan was the leader of the family. She rejected his protest with a wave of her hand and sent him out.
The two walked towards the educated youth site in silence, and it was finally Xu Miaomiao who broke the silence.
