Today is the happiest day for the whole village, and everyone is filled with happy smiles.
Everyone happily headed to the threshing ground. When Yao Cuifang passed by Su Le's hut, she said, "Youngest, let's find a good spot first. Hurry up and call Su Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing."
Li Zichen nodded reluctantly.
Yao Cuifang trotted over with her son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters.
Li Zichen knocked on the door. Su Le had already washed up and opened the gate. "My mother asked me to call you to the threshing ground. We're distributing grain today."
Su Le nodded and closed the door.
Li Zichen frowned. This woman really doesn't know what's good for her!
"Jiaojiao, let's go to the threshing ground quickly. I haven't seen the grain distribution yet!" Su Le shouted towards Xu Jiaojiao's room.
Xu Jiaojiao responded, "I haven't seen it either! Wait a minute!"
Xu Jiaojiao wore a simple pair of bell-bottom pants and a T-shirt.
When Su Le and Xu Jiaojiao were about to leave, they saw Li Zichen at the door who had not left yet.
Li Zichen walked in front, and Su Le and Xu Jiaojiao followed behind.
"Le Le, he's a pretty nice guy, isn't he?" Xu Jiaojiao said to Su Le.
Su Le rolled his eyes, "Jiaojiao, this guy is very bad!"
Li Zichen suddenly stopped and Su Le bumped into him.
"What are you doing?" Su Le touched his nose and asked angrily.
Li Zichen said calmly, "Who told you not to look at the road? You're so stupid."
Su Le was so angry that he punched him twice on the back!
Li Zichen turned around, and Su Le immediately retracted his little fist and pretended nothing had happened.
The three of them hurried to the threshing ground.
The entrance to the granary was filled with all kinds of grain, and the work points had been calculated early in the morning.
Each family exchanges food according to their needs. Almost everyone chooses coarse grains, with a small portion of fine grains. This is everyone's annual ration.
After all the villagers had been replaced, people from the educated youth camp arrived. The old educated youth also exchanged their own food.
Since the new educated youth did not have work points, they could choose to buy food.
Li Ming said to the five new educated youth, "You can buy food now! You still have to pay for the 10 kilograms of coarse grain you took on the first day."
Xu Jiaojiao was the first to go up. "I want 50 kilograms of flour, 100 kilograms of rice, and 10 kilograms of sweet potatoes."
Li Ming advised, "Xu Zhiqing, for a year's worth of food, I suggest you choose mostly coarse grains, right?"
Xu Jiaojiao shook her head. "Thank you, Captain Li, for your kindness."
Li Ming picked up her work points from the past few days. "For the last day, I earned 8 points. That's equivalent to 4 yuan. Since I didn't receive food on the first day, you'll have to pay 30.25."
Xu Jiaojiao nodded and took out 31 yuan. "Captain, please round it up for me. Make it an even number."
Li Ming gave her some sweet potatoes.
"Jiaojiao, wait for me, let's go back together. Captain Li, Jiaojiao and I want the same thing." Su Le said.
It’s not appropriate if you don’t buy some for yourself.
"Su Zhiqing, same as Xu Zhiqing. 30.25," said the accountant.
Su Le quickly gave the money. Captain Li praised her. "Hey! The youngest of the Li family, the eldest!" Captain Li said as he looked at the departing Li family members.
Li Zichen was speechless. Why did he meet her every time?
"You two help deliver the food for Su Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing!" Li Ming said to them.
Boss Li agreed naively, "Okay, uncle, don't worry."
The two of them pushed the cart, Su Le and Xu Jiaojiao walked in front, "Le Le, we seem to have a connection with this person." Jiaojiao said to Su Le.
Su Le's face was full of rejection, "Xie Yuan!"
Boss Li and Li Zichen helped move to the kitchen, and Xu Jiaojiao brought them two cups of brown sugar water.
Li Zichen glanced at Su Le who was standing in the living room and secretly watching them.
"Xu Zhiqing, you're too polite! No need, no need, we're leaving." Boss Li declined and pushed the cart back to the threshing ground with Li Zichen.
Chen Di said to Captain Li Ming, "I want 150 kilograms of coarse grains."
The person next to Li Ming calculated, "6 centimeters is equivalent to 3 yuan, a total of 19.5 yuan."
Chen Di took out two reunion tickets and prepared to pay the bill.
The accountant added, "I withheld 10 kilograms of grain. I borrowed it from the brigade when I arrived."
Chen Di had no choice but to take 140 kilograms of coarse grains. He had to save a lot in a year.
Yu Lei also asked for 100 kilograms of coarse grains and paid 12 yuan.
Xia Wan touched the 30 yuan she had stolen from her brother Xia Guo and calculated carefully, "10 kilograms of flour, 10 kilograms of rice, and 109 kilograms of coarse grains."
The accountant said, "A total of 19.95, no work points. 10 kilograms of white flour, 10 kilograms of rice, and 99 kilograms of coarse grains."
Xia Wan took out two reunion tickets and handed them gracefully to the accountant, who gave her five cents in change.
Li Ming saw that there were no male comrades on the field, so he asked them to push the carts back by themselves.
The scorer exam was this afternoon, but Su Le did not attend it. She stayed in her small room reading college entrance examination materials. In two years, when the college entrance examination was resumed, she would be able to go to college and experience college life.
All the educated youth at the educated youth point went there, and Yao Cuifang asked her own family member Li Laosan to go with the family to see them off.
Xia Wan immediately took a liking to Li Zichen, her cheeks flushed, "Are you also taking the exam to be a scorekeeper?"
Li Zichen said indifferently, "Stay away from me. It stinks!"
Xia Wan walked into the examination room with a pale face and smelled herself, but there was no smell at all!
Everyone was eager to try, but when Li Ming took out the test questions, they were all dumbfounded.
Most people went out dejectedly.
Although Xu Jiaojiao was a young lady who had to go to the countryside due to her family background, her family did not neglect her education at all. She graduated from a regular high school.
Xia Wan went to high school but did not graduate, so she is not considered a high school student!
Undoubtedly, Xu Jiaojiao was the scorekeeper. She took over the job from the original scorekeeper.
Jumping back to the little house, "Le Le! Le Le! I became the scorer!" Xu Jiaojiao shouted excitedly.
Su Le was also happy for her, "That's amazing!"
Xu Jiaojiao puffed out her chest and patted it, "I'll protect you from now on!"
Su Le nodded, "Okay!"
