Chapter 46 Waste of Food
Xu Wanning and Lin Qiqi had just pulled back a cart carrying 400 kilograms of cornmeal and hid it in the cellar.
There was a sound of Su Xiaomei knocking on the door anxiously.
“Boom boom boom…”
"Xu Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, are you home?"
As soon as Xu Wanning opened the door, she saw Su Xiaomei standing at the door, panting, as if she was in a hurry about something.
"Sister Xiaomei, what's wrong?"
"What happened?"
Su Xiaomei and Aunt Wang were preparing to go up the mountain to collect firewood and dig wild vegetables, when someone from the village came to call her to go to the educated youth site, saying that the team leader wanted all the educated youth to go there.
"Xu Zhiqing quickly called Lin Zhiqing to go to the Zhiqing point together."
"Captain, let's go over there quickly!"
"I heard that the male and female educated youth at the educated youth camp started fighting because they were running out of food."
Lin Qiqi was speechless after hearing this. Why would they go there when the educated youth were fighting? They weren't welcome there.
"Sister Xiaomei, what does their fight have to do with us?"
"Didn't we all move out?"
Su Xiaomei didn't know what the captain was up to, but he told them to go.
"Who made us all educated youth?"
"It's hard to explain in a few words, let's go and take a look!"
The team leader of the educated youth camp, Shen Yujun, was frowning and scolding the educated youth.
"Wang Wenjie, Liu Weiwei, look at yourselves, why are you, a few grown men, hitting a little girl?"
"Aren't you ashamed?"
"Can't you just sit down and talk it out? Why do you have to resort to violence?"
Liu Weiwei retorted reluctantly:
"Captain, it's not all our fault!"
"It's Li Wenjing and the others who are wasting food. Ever since Sister Xiaomei moved out, the female educated youth have been cooking a lot and throwing away the leftovers."
Li Wenjing was furious after hearing this. Why was it always her fault?
"Liu Weiwei, you're talking nonsense! Isn't it because I cook so much that you male educated youth can have enough to eat?"
"Now you're blaming me. Don't you think you're not wrong?"
Shen Yujun really didn't expect that these city kids would blame each other for food. The male educated youth even started fighting and beat the female educated youth. The female educated youth wasted food at will and didn't think they were wrong.
These kids really brought shame to his old man. If word got out that the educated youth in his village had done something like this, how would he face the team leaders of other villages? He would be laughed at to death.
"And you girls, the food you eat is grown by the villagers with great effort. How dare you throw it away?"
Xu Wanning and a few others stood at the entrance of the educated youth center and watched the team leader get angry quietly. No one dared to speak first. Wasting food was a serious crime. In the past, people would be paraded through the streets.
When the team leader Shen Yujun saw that everyone was present, he planned to hold a meeting with the educated youth to educate these kids.
"Xu Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing, although you have moved out, you are still members of the Zhiqing Point, so you should all come and listen!"
"Although the harvest in our village this year wasn't very good, it was still enough to fill our stomachs."
"Do you know how many people die of starvation every year in our neighboring county?"
“How many people have no food to eat and are hungry every day!”
"You kids don't know how to appreciate the blessings you have!"
"We understand that you city kids may have some bad habits, but you should know that wasting food is the most shameful and unforgivable thing!"
