Bai Guoguo said goodbye to the children, threw the remaining fish in his hand into a basin, kept it in water, and put the pheasant into the space.
Then I collected the wild vegetables and wild mushrooms dug today, as well as the wild vegetables and wild fungus found by the children, and hung them on bamboo plates to dry.
Small garlic chives, wild leeks, and a few wild bracken. I plan to pick them up, clean them, and eat them in the evening.
These are all delicious green foods, which were not easy to buy before I traveled through time!
When Bai Guoguo came back, the old educated youth at the educated youth site had all had lunch and were taking a nap. After she had been busy for a while, the old educated youth got up one after another and prepared to go to work.
"Bai Zhiqing, have you gone to pick wild vegetables?"
Bai Guoguo was sitting at the door patiently picking small garlic roots when she suddenly heard someone talking to her. She looked up and saw that it was the old educated youth Li Xiaomei.
"So it's Li Zhiqing. I had nothing to do this morning, so I went to the foot of the mountain and dug up some wild vegetables!"
"Bai Zhiqing and the other three educated youths who came with you, Song Qingshan Zhiqing said this morning that we old educated youths plan to prepare a few dishes for you to have a meal today, as a way of welcoming you into our big family!"
Every year when new educated youth arrive, the old educated youth will invite them to a dinner to welcome them. This is an old tradition.
However, the old educated youth went to work early in the morning, and the others were not up yet. The person in charge, Song Qingshan, asked everyone to notify them if they met any new educated youth.
"So that's how it is. Thank you, old educated youth comrades. The three of them have gone to the commune to buy things. I will notify you when they come back."
When Bai Guoguo heard what was going on, she was surprised to find that the old educated youth at the educated youth site were quite humane!
"Now that I've been notified, I'll be leaving. Don't cook this afternoon. Come over and eat together then."
"Okay, thank you Li Zhiqing. I caught some fish in the creek this morning. I'll bring them over and make a dish for us."
"That's great! The fish in this creek make delicious soup. We're all benefiting from the help of the educated youth. I'll go to work now and tell the other educated youth about this good news!"
Li Xiaomei had already seen that there were more than 10 fish that Bai Guoguo had put in the basin, each weighing at least three or two taels, which was a rare piece of meat.
She didn't expect Bai Zhiqing to be so generous, and she was very happy.
Li Xiaomei said goodbye to Bai Guoguo and went to the front yard to meet up with everyone to go out to work. By the way, she told everyone that Bai Guoguo had produced more than 10 fish as a snack for everyone.
"This Bai Zhiqing is really open and generous. The smallest fish looked to be three taels, which adds up to six or seven kilograms. I don't know how she is so capable of catching so many fish!"
Just now when Li Xiaomei was talking to Bai Guoguo, Jiang Qingqing was standing beside her waiting for her, but she was a little introverted and felt embarrassed to talk to Bai Guoguo, whom she was not familiar with.
However, she saw the fish in the basin. The small ones weighed three or four taels, and the big ones weighed more than half a catty, which added up to more than six or seven catties.
"I didn't expect this Bai Zhiqing to be so generous. We can't let him down. We'll try our best to help him in any way we can in the future!"
Everyone nodded repeatedly after hearing what Song Zhiqing, the eldest brother, said. However, it seemed that everyone's speech was distorted, and there was a bit of a Northeastern accent in it!
The other educated youth were very happy. Firstly, the new educated youth seemed easy to get along with, and secondly, they had not eaten meat for a long time.
After all, the monthly supply of meat coupons was limited, and they did not have the skills of the locals who could catch game in the mountains or fish in the rivers.
So everyone is craving meat, even fish is still meat!
If Bai Zhiqing really contributed so many fish, then everyone would be able to drink their fill of fish soup today. How could we not be happy?
Everyone is thinking about drinking fish soup after work in the afternoon, which makes them more energetic to work all afternoon.
After Bai Guoguo finished cleaning up, Xiao Genjian in his hand washed all the wild vegetables, drained the water and put them into the space.
Originally, Bai Guoguo had planned to save the wild vegetables for the dinner party in the evening, but it took her more than an hour to prepare those small garlic roots, and she was reluctant to give them to others.
At worst, I can give them some more food at night, and I can keep these wild vegetables for myself.
I believe that compared to these wild vegetables, the educated youth would definitely prefer more grain, so this is a win-win situation!
When Bai Guoguo cleaned up all the garbage, took it out and threw it away, and then sat on the small bench at the door to eat biscuits, the other three new educated youth also came back.
She heard the voices of Yang Xiaoyong, Li Dongyang and Wang Qiuyu coming from the front yard. She quickly stuffed the last bit of biscuit into her mouth, patted the biscuit crumbs on her hands and went to the front yard.
When he went to the front yard, he saw three people discussing building a stove under the eaves of the main room in the front yard.
The old educated youth were divided into two groups for meals, and the kitchen of the Intelligence Bureau was occupied by them, so there was no room for a third stove.
However, the old educated youth agreed to let them build a stove under the eaves of the old main room. Then they only need to build half a wall and it will not be rained on.
When the time comes, we will install the wooden door of the old house and it will become a kitchen.
I heard from them that the team leader also agreed, and after work he sent people to build walls and stoves for them.
However, each of the three people has to pay one dollar for materials and labor costs, and they are discussing this matter now!
"Hey guys, the old educated youth said they're going to cook for us tonight and treat us to a meal. They said they're welcoming us into the educated youth family!"
Bai Guoguo saw that they had been discussing for a long time but didn't see her, so she decided to speak first.
The three people who were discussing enthusiastically were startled by the sudden sound. They turned around and saw that it was Bai Guoguo!
Yang Xiaoyong looked at the other two and asked Bai Guoguo, "We understand. We still have to thank the old educated youth. But Bai Zhiqing, what are you planning to bring as a gift? We can't be stupid. We have to bring something, right?"
"I caught over 10 fish in the creek at noon today. Let's use these as a snack!"
"I brought some salted duck eggs from my hometown. I'll give out 6 salted duck eggs." Li Dongyang thought that if he cut 6 salted duck eggs into two halves, each person would get just half, which was not too little.
"I brought bacon, so I'll give you half a piece of bacon!"
Wang Qiuyu thought that Bai Guoguo had sold more than 10 fish, and if he took too little, he would be outdone. So he endured the pain and sold half a piece of bacon.
"Then I'll take out a sausage. My mom makes sweet sausages. They're delicious when steamed on top of rice!"
Yang Xiaoyong also readily contributed the sweet sausage made by his mother.
Sugar and meat are very precious these days. Yang Xiaoyong is very generous in contributing a sweet sausage!
