Chapter 46 Waste of Food (2/2)



"You, Jing, go carry manure for three months. The other educated youth, each write a profound self-criticism."

"From tomorrow on, if you are short of food at the educated youth camp, you will have to find a way to solve it yourself."

"From now on, the village won't care whether he lives or dies."

"The village can't take care of that anymore."

After saying these words, Captain Shen Yujun turned around and left without looking back.

Only now did Jing realize the seriousness of the matter. If the village didn't care about the educated youth site, it meant that the educated youth site would run out of food in the future and she would have to starve. Besides, she didn't want to go and pick up manure!

"Captain, I know I was wrong!"

"Please don't leave..."

Seeing that the team leader had left, Xu Wanning and the others were also planning to go back. As soon as they reached the door, Zhang Mingwei called them.

"Xu Zhiqing, wait a moment."

Xu Wanning said expressionlessly:

"Zhang Mingwei, are you okay?"

"If everything is alright, we'll go back first."

"We still have to go up the mountain to collect firewood!"

Zhang Mingwei was a little embarrassed, but this was the task given to him by Wang Jie, so he had to speak up.

"Xu Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing, could you lend us some food to help us out in this emergency?"

Xu Wanning showed a sarcastic smile on her face. She really didn't expect that the educated youth point would target them so quickly.

"Borrow food?"

"Wang Jie asked you to borrow it, right?"

"Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"Where can we borrow food?"

"Zhang Mingwei, we were one of the first batch of educated youth to go to the countryside. We didn't bring any food with us. We only borrowed 30 kilograms of food from the production team. It's been a month now, and you've almost run out of food, and so have we."

After hearing this, Lin Qiqi angrily pointed at Liu Mingwei and asked:

"Wang Jie, how dare he ask us to borrow food?"

"This person is so shameless!"

After hearing this, Su Xiaomei was so angry that she laughed. Wang Jie is really something. She has been blind and misjudged people all these years.

"Zhang Mingwei, go back and tell him."

“Even if I, Amelia Su, have more food than I can eat, I won’t lend it to him.”

"He's a grown man with arms and legs, why would he ask us weak women for food?"

"Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if you tell others?"

Zhang Mingwei was speechless after being rebuked. This was indeed something they had done wrong in the educated youth camp, and Wang Yujie had indeed gone too far...

After Xu Wanning and the others left the educated youth site, they went back to their respective homes.

The team leader of Lin Qiqi's team found someone to build a house. It didn't cost any money, and they only needed to provide a meal at noon, so the two of them went back early to cook.

The two of them worked for more than an hour, making a pot of braised pork intestines, stir-frying some spicy and sour potato shreds, steaming a dried chicken that had just been made two days ago, and finally steaming a pot of cornmeal steamed buns.

After lunch, Xu Wanning went up the mountain with Lin Qiqi to collect firewood. Lin Qiqi's house was about to be built, and they would move in sometime. A lot of firewood would be needed for heating in winter, so they had to collect more firewood before winter came.

After a while, the two of them picked up a full basket of firewood. Xu Wanning also took out two wild rabbits from the space while Lin Qiqi was not paying attention.

Not far away, Wang Dahua and Su Xiaomei also came up the mountain carrying baskets.

"Xu Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, are you here to collect firewood too?"
