Chapter 5: Delivering Meals



She was a little worried, thinking that if another powerful time-traveling girl had thought about cooking dinner for the family, after all, they also needed to eat when they came back. But she didn't know how to cook anything, and she felt dizzy just looking at the earthen stove. She had never used it before.

Besides, every family is in a tight spot right now, as can be seen from yesterday's dinner and this morning's breakfast. She has good intentions but cannot do bad things, otherwise it would be bad if food is wasted. Otherwise, should she just stay put?

Although she was panicking, she could only stay still and help sweep the floor if she had to. The floor was still made of dirt, and it was all dust when she swept it.

Finally, she said a little disappointedly: "Why can't I do anything?"

When Ruchuan came back, he saw a little girl wearing a fashionable sweater, pouting and looking angry. She seemed to be very upset that she couldn't do anything. In fact, shouldn't she feel that life here is very hard and the conditions are not good, and cry and go back to the city?

He quietly put the rice on the table. Just as he picked up the ladle to drink water, he heard the little girl jump up with a cry, then patted her chest and said, "It turned out to be you. You scared me."

Suddenly, without a sound, there is a person behind me. Anyone would be startled. How come this person walks without making any sound?

"I prepared food for you, eat it."

Ruichuan rarely stayed alone with lesbians, so in order to avoid suspicion he just said one sentence and walked out.

Su Su had never met such an honest man before. When he met a young girl, he just turned around and walked away without saying a single soft word. He was too straightforward.

"Is it a bit inappropriate for me to eat this meal?" She heard that it was the brigade's big pot meal prepared for those who worked in the team. She just stayed at home and someone came to deliver meals to her. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?

"You are here to help the village eliminate illiteracy, and you are also making a contribution to us. The brigade has decided that your food rations will be paid for temporarily, and will be counted as half of a person's work points."

"Well, and thank you for yesterday. I fell and was a little confused, so I didn't know anything." Don't let him think too much about what you said.

But the other party just nodded very coldly, and then left without saying where he was going.

It's strange that a man who is so well-behaved can find a girlfriend. No wonder he has been single since he was abandoned by the heroine. If his family doesn't arrange a wife for him, he will never be able to get married.

But in this era, such men are still attractive. After all, they will not do anything unruly and will stay with you, a woman, for the rest of your life. Most importantly, they are handsome.

In the evening, everyone came back from a day's work.

Su Su did nothing except boil a pot of hot water for them, but Lu Mu was still very happy and said, "Usually I come home with cold water, but today the kang is warm as soon as I enter the house."

Su Su scratched her head sheepishly and smiled awkwardly: "I, I didn't do anything." She originally wanted to give him money, but thinking of Lu Jiang's self-esteem, she decided to give up.

"You must be hungry, second brother, go and cook. The captain will be here soon." After Lu Mu said this, Lu Hai went to cook. They looked very tired, but they were still living their lives seriously.

Su Su wanted to help, but she found that she could do nothing, so she just sat in the house and looked outside. It looked like it was going to snow soon, and the sky was gloomy.

After dinner, the male protagonist came over. It must be said that the male protagonist looked much gentler, at least he was better than Ruichuan in dealing with people. He was the son of Rui's uncle. Although he was an adopted son, his uncle's family did not treat him as an outsider. They even spent money to support him to graduate from high school, becoming the most educated person in the whole village, otherwise he would not have become the captain.

The first thing he saw after entering the room was a girl sitting there obediently with a ponytail and flowing bangs. She was wearing a new loose sweater and her face was white and smooth. It was obvious that she had never suffered hardship.

The most important thing was that pair of lovely big eyes, fluttering as they looked at him.

These eyes make it impossible to calm down no matter which man they look at.

Fortunately, Lu Donghe had seen some scenes before, but he felt that the outfit of the girl in front of him was something that even the biggest leader he had ever seen could not pull off.

"Hello, is this Comrade Su? My name is Lu Donghe, and I am the leader of the production team in the small mountain village."

"Hello, my name is Su Su." She shook hands with the man politely, and then sat down obediently.

"I have read your documents. The commune said before that a teacher would come to teach literacy, but we didn't expect it to be a college student. There are many illiterate people in our village, and many people cannot read and write. The autumn harvest work will be completed soon, and then everyone will have time to go to the commune to study."

"Well, I'll try my best."

"Then there is Comrade Su Su's residence. We are planning to arrange for you to stay at the educated youth center. Is that okay? It's a newly built house in the village and it's warmer. Besides, there are not many female educated youth there, only three..." When Lu Donghe said this, he paused for a moment.

But the mother said: "Donghe, the kangs at the Youth League Center are very small. I'm afraid there will be no place for the daughter to live if she goes there, right?"

"Yes, it's a bit crowded." Lu Donghe nodded.

"Then can I just live at my aunt's house?" Su Su glanced at her mother, then said a little aggrievedly, "I don't really like living with people I don't know. Can I just live at my aunt's house and not move?"

Lu Donghe glanced at Lu's mother. In fact, his second uncle's family had a place to live. After all, everyone knew that there was a warm attic in the back. But they had many children and were poor, so they might not be willing to accept outsiders.

But she didn't expect that Lu's mother liked Su Su very much and thought that she should be taken good care of when she was away alone. In addition, her daughter seldom came back after getting married, and since she was not her biological daughter, they were not too close to her. How could she not welcome a little girl who was willing to stay in their home?

They are city dwellers, so it's good enough that you don't mind their poverty.

"That's great. We have a warm attic at home that's perfect for you to live in." Mother Luo agreed immediately.

Ruchuan frowned but said nothing, but Rudonghe said: "This, this is not good. Didn't my eldest brother come back this time to solve personal problems, such as the wedding house..."

Mother Lu glanced at her son and said, "We plan to buy the old Ning's house and let them get married. It will be in the backyard so they can be close and take care of each other. Yueyue is also from the city and can't stand being humiliated. She doesn't want to settle for a warm house."

"Mom..." Li Chuan had never expected that his parents actually wanted to buy a house for him. He knew that they had been supporting the children's schooling over the years and had accumulated a lot of debts due to their grandparents' illness. They had finally paid off the debts but now wanted to buy a house for him.

"Anyway, the money is the allowance you mailed back. As for the things in the house...we really have no other choice. You have to carry them yourself." Mother Lu said neatly.
