After hearing what Li Meili said, the old educated youth looked at Zhang Shunli with gossip, and Xu Zhiqing teased Zhang Shunli again.
"Zhang Zhiqing, could he be your suitor? He's chasing me here to go to the countryside. You're so lucky! No wonder you're unmoved by all the girls chasing you. It turns out you're just waiting for the right one to come."
The hearts of the girls in our brigade are about to break. Zhang Zhiqing, is he your childhood sweetheart, your junior high school classmate, or your high school classmate?
Hurry up and get their luggage, don't be embarrassed. When it comes to face, the person is the most important."
Zhang Shunli was very angry when he saw the gossipy eyes of the old educated youth, and blurted out what he said.
"What the hell? I don't even know him. The captain just introduced me to them. My name is Zhang Shunli, and they started calling me Brother Shunli. I'm speechless too."
Zhang Shunli had just finished speaking when Li Meili and the others came in with their luggage. The old educated youth were all staring at the new educated youth, and Li Meili put down her luggage.
She ran over and started to greet everyone enthusiastically: "Hello everyone, my name is Li Meili, you can just call me Meili. I'm from Beijing, graduated from high school, and have a cheerful personality. I like making friends and hope to become good friends with everyone.
I'm only 18 years old, and I hope my brothers and sisters will take good care of me in the future. I'd like to say thank you here first, thank you for your future care. "
After Li Meili finished speaking, she bowed and turned around to show herself.
When the old educated youth heard Li Meili's voice, they all began to look at her.
Li Meili found that the old educated youth were all looking at her, so she pretended to be generous and let them look.
"How is it? Am I good-looking? Everyone who has seen my face praises my good looks.
There are so many people who like me. Even when I was in elementary school, people were secretly passing me love letters. Since elementary school, I have been receiving love letters until my hands are full. However, in order to study hard, I have never had a date and am still single.
It’s not just people of my age who like me. Children also like to play with me, uncles and aunts all praise me for being cute, and grandparents also like to chat with me.”
Everyone was shocked, but Zhang Shunli was the first to speak: "Come and sit down. Let's eat first and talk about things later."
Li Meili quickly sat down at the table, looked at the dishes on the table, and began to complain: "Brother Shunli, do you usually eat these? There is not a single meat dish, only a pepper fried egg that is okay. The soup is so watery, it's not filling, right?
Don’t look down on me because I’m small. I’m a big eater. The food on this table is enough for me.”
Li Meili finished speaking and started eating with her chopsticks. She put most of the bowl of chili scrambled eggs into her own bowl. She also asked curiously, "Aren't you going to eat it? Is it because I look pretty that you want to give it to me?"
Come on, eat quickly. Although I can finish it, I won’t be so selfish as to finish all the dishes.”
After Li Meili finished speaking, she poured all the scrambled eggs with chili peppers into her bowl.
"Hurry up and eat. I've already picked out the food I like. You can eat whatever you want of the rest. I don't like any of it."
The old educated youth were very angry. Wang Xiuli directly lifted Li Meili's bowl and divided the eggs into the bowls of the female educated youth.
The female educated youth took their bowls and started eating, and the other educated youth also started eating.
Li Meili saw her empty bowl, stood up angrily and questioned loudly.
"What are you doing? You actually shared my chili scrambled eggs. Did you ask me? Did I agree?"
"In your chili scrambled eggs, did you come up with the chili or the eggs? How thick-skinned do you have to be to say such shameless things."
Li Meili burst into tears and walked over to Zhang Shunli to complain: "Brother Shunli, she bullied me and took away my favorite fried eggs with chili peppers. You must avenge me, wuwuwu..."
"Li Zhiqing, please don't call me Brother Shunli, and don't disturb me while I'm eating. You're full, but I haven't eaten yet. Besides, isn't this your fault? How dare you blame others?"
Li Meili watched Zhang Shunli eat and ignored her. She then walked over to Liu Jianguo and pulled his arm, "Brother Jianguo, they bullied me and wouldn't let me have scrambled eggs with chili peppers. I'm not full yet, I still want to eat eggs, woo woo woo..."
Liu Jianguo simply swung his arm and Li Meili fell to the ground. He didn't care and just continued to eat.
Amidst Li Meili's cries, the educated youth quickly finished their meal. After they cleared the dishes, Zhang Shunli returned to his room and took out a pen and paper. "Everyone, come sit down now. I have something to tell you."
All the educated youth sat down, but Li Meili was still crying on the ground, and Zhang Shunli ignored her.
"The team leader told me that the landlord's house had been repossessed and there were many single rooms available for rent. They were 1 yuan a month, and even old educated youth could rent them.
If you're looking to rent now, please register with me first and I'll show you the rooms. Once you rent a room, you can set up your own stove and eat by yourself, or share a meal with someone you get along with.
After Zhang Shunli finished speaking, many educated youth came to sign up. There were 9 new educated youth and 4 old educated youth who signed up.
"Today's meal is to welcome you new educated youth. We cooked and ate it together.
The six educated youth who lived in the single rooms of the educated youth institute ate alone. Now there are only six educated youth left in the public dormitory of the educated youth institute, and 13 educated youth live in the landlord's house.
Now that the educated youth had been persecuted and their lives were disrupted, how were they supposed to eat? They could make their own arrangements, eat alone, or find company.
The new educated youth will go to the branch secretary to get food, and those who rent a house should remember to pay the rent to the branch secretary.
Also, every educated youth has a plot of land for growing vegetables. If you want to grow vegetables, come to me and I will divide it up for you.
