Chapter 13 Song Qingfeng



The man left without saying anything more.

The eldest sister Li Chunyan said jokingly: "You are fascinated by our educated youth Song, right? This is educated youth Song Qingfeng. We were also like this when we first saw him. But..."

Li Chunyan didn't plan to say more, but Xiang Hongxia kept pestering Li Chunyan, wanting her to continue talking.

But Li Chunyan did not agree until Xiang Hongxia took out two pieces of peach cakes and stuffed them into Li Chunyan's hands. After some refusal, Li Chunyan reluctantly accepted.

Li Chunyan took two pieces of peach cake and told Xiang Hongxia.

It turned out that when Song Qingfeng first came, many young girls had their eyes on him because he was not only handsome but also received large packages from home every month.

But what Song Qingfeng did later surprised everyone. They didn't expect that Song Qingfeng looked strong, but he was actually useless and took sick leave every few days.

Even if you work in the fields, you can only earn two work points. You should know that nowadays children can earn two or three work points by picking grass for pigs.

But it doesn't matter, just be lazy. After all, that face is really pretty, even just looking at it can make you eat an extra bowl of rice.

Suddenly one day, news spread in the village that he was inhumane.

At first, the girls didn't believe it, until later Song Qingfeng himself came forward to confirm the matter, saying that he didn't want to delay the girls.

Those older girls finally gave up, after all, who would want to be with such an inhuman lazy guy?

Wouldn’t this mean being a widow forever?

Xiang Hongxia immediately lowered her head in disappointment, while Li Lu's eyes just flashed with disappointment.

Ruan Jiaojiao, who also heard what Li Chunyan said, thought to herself what a pity that such a handsome man was so inhumane.

After Li Chunyan and Xiang Hongxia finished speaking, Wang Ganggang spoke up, "The current accommodation situation is as follows. You three female educated youth can choose to live in the large room, which is more fully equipped. There are also two small rooms. If you want to stay in them, you will have to find someone to build a kang and pay for the firewood yourself."

Xiang Hongxia didn't care about building a kang and firewood. For her, these were not a big deal. She had plenty of money anyway.

So she asked for a small room first, and Ruan Jiaojiao didn't want to live with others, so she also asked for a small room.

After all, it was only 1973, and there were still four years before the college entrance examination was resumed. She didn't want to let herself down during these four years.

By then, there would surely be more educated youth going to the countryside, so the big room would definitely be full. As for the small room, since it was too small and could only accommodate one person, it was unlikely that anyone would live in it anymore.

Similarly, Ruan Jiaojiao didn't want to squeeze into a room with so many people. After all, more people means more trouble.

She doesn't want to deal with conflicts every day. She wants to be a salted fish and enjoy life.

As for Li Lu, since she heard that she had to build a kang herself, and firewood was consumed quickly and she couldn't store much, she thought a larger room would be more suitable.

And just like that, the room was decided.

Ruan Jiaojiao's house was still very empty, although there were a lot of things in Ruan Jiaojiao's space.

However, none of Ruan Jiaojiao's things have been made public, so there are still many things that have not been purchased.

When the educated youth first arrived, they did not have to work. They could take a day off and buy daily necessities.

So Ruan Jiaojiao planned to go to town tomorrow to buy some things.

After all, once she got to work, she wouldn't have time to go shopping. As for taking a leave, Ruan Jiaojiao hadn't even thought about it.

After all, asking for leave right after arriving will lower the villagers' impression of me.

But it doesn’t matter, because Ruan Jiaojiao has something to be happy about.

Now is the time when the autumn harvest has just ended and the busy farming season is over.

Ruan Jiaojiao only needs to complete a small amount of farm work every day, and she can hibernate in a few months.

I thought to myself what a stroke of luck, the timing was perfect.

Although Ruan Jiaojiao was mentally prepared for the dilapidated appearance of her small room, she still couldn't help being shocked when she actually saw this dilapidated and small house.

She wondered why the house was so old, but Ruan Jiaojiao quickly accepted her shabby little house.

Although the house is small, it belongs to her alone, so she has her own private space.

She took a quick look at her room and found that in addition to finding someone to build a kang for her room, she also needed to ask the village carpenter to make her a set of furniture.

The issue of building a kang must be put on the agenda.

Because it is not very cold in Harbin in autumn, but it is not suitable for people to sleep on the ground.

So Ruan Jiaojiao planned to stay in the big room for one night.

But building the kang cannot be postponed, it must be completed early, otherwise how can she have her own private space.

So Ruan Jiaojiao went to find Wang Gang, the head of the educated youth site, and asked him to show her the way.

When Wang Gang saw Ruan Jiaojiao walking towards him, he grinned, revealing his big white teeth, and said innocently, "Comrade Ruan, do you need my help?"

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded and said sincerely: "Yes, I want to find someone to help me build a kang and a set of furniture, so I would like to ask you to recommend someone for me."

Wang Gang scratched his head and said honestly: "Ha, I thought it was a big deal. It's just a small matter. Don't worry, I will take you to find someone."

Ruan Jiaojiao followed Wang Gang out of the house. Along the way, they saw an aunt on the roadside greeting Wang Gang enthusiastically, and Wang Gang responded foolishly.

Ruan Jiaojiao thought to herself, this guy has good relationships with people, he deserves to be the leader of the educated youth group.

Although he looks silly, he is considerate in his behavior. It is indeed not easy for Wang Gang to become a leader.

As they walked, Wang Gang said to Ruan Jiaojiao, "Uncle Li is the best kang maker in our village. Many people come to him to make kangs. And his son is also the best carpenter in our village."

After a while, Wang Gang brought Wang Jiaojiao to a red brick house, which looked quite good.

It turns out that people with skills will live well in any era.

Wang Gang shouted, "Uncle Li, there are new educated youth who want you to build a kang and furniture."

Hearing the sound, a middle-aged man came out.

The man called Uncle Li patted Wang Gang's shoulder vigorously and said, "Not bad, Gangzi, you brought me some business!"

Wang Gang laughed and said, "Of course you should buy me a drink."

The man called Uncle Li agreed and turned to Ruan Jiaojiao and said, "Little educated youth, you can call me Uncle Li. The kangs I make are the best in our village, and my son is also the best carpenter in the village, so you can rest assured. By the way, what kind of furniture do you want?"

The furniture Ruan Jiaojiao wanted was not complicated: two large wooden boxes, a stool, a large wooden barrel, a large wardrobe and a dressing table.

She told Uncle Li what she wanted. Uncle Li calculated in his mind and said, "These are not difficult. Furniture and a kang. Just give me ten yuan."
