Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Cousin, Qiao Anchuan
With the help of White Rabbit Milk Candy, Lin Yu and Zhuo Jia formed a deep friendship, which was manifested in the following aspects:
When Zhuo Jia left, her backpack was full!
Lin Yu walked her to the door and said reluctantly, "Cousin, come again next time."
White Rabbit milk candy is so expensive, how can it be as delicious as the free one?
Zhuo Jia nodded seriously: "Don't worry, cousin, I will definitely come."
Just because Comrade Lin Yu took her to buy so many things that didn't require tickets, she accepted this cousin.
Lin Yu licked her lips and waved again: "Goodbye, cousin."
Her cousin is really rich. The clothes she wears are from big cities, and the watch she wears is also bought in a big city...
Dear cousin, from now on she is her cousin!
Zhuo Jia happily rushed to the state-owned restaurant with the basket on her back. The biggest gain from her trip to the state-owned restaurant this time was not the things in the basket, but meeting her cousin Comrade Lin Yu.
However, she consumed too much White Rabbit candy this morning, so she planned to go to the state-owned restaurant to eat with the ticket, ahem, in case the ticket in her hand expired, she would come to see Comrade Lin Yu next time.
After a pleasant meal of dumplings at the state-owned restaurant, Zhuo Jia went for a stroll elsewhere. Seeing that it was almost time, she went to the photo studio. She still remembered the main business of her visit to the county.
After getting the photo, she looked at it carefully. She was wearing navy blue pants and a light pink short-sleeved shirt. Oh, although the photo was black and white and the color could not be seen, but looking at the pigtails hanging on both sides and her dimples, she couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. As expected of her, she looked good in black and white photos!
If Aunt Hongying's son doesn't like it, then there is something wrong with Aunt Hongying's son's vision.
No, she lowered her eyes and thought for a while. It seemed that no one had told her what Aunt Hongying’s son was called. No, she had to go back and ask.
Zhuo Jia looked at the time and hurried back. Naturally, she caught the bus, but it was a little difficult to get on. As soon as she stepped on it, a package was thrown in through the window next to her, which scared her so much that she took two steps back.
Fortunately, she got on the bus early, otherwise, let alone a seat, there might not even be a place to stand because the middle was full of messy things.
Halfway through the ride, Zhuo Jia couldn't help it anymore. She took out an orange from the warehouse under the cover of her shoulder bag. She felt a little nauseous, so she ate an orange to calm her nerves!
Zhuo Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting off the bus at the commune. Phew, this bus is really not suitable for people to ride. It seems that she has to find a way to buy a bicycle. Even if it is a little tiring, she doesn't want to squeeze on the bus again. It's too uncomfortable.
…
When she returned to the educated youth site, the others had not returned yet. Zhuo Jia didn't have time to pack the things in her backpack. She took the enamel basin and went outside to wash her face. Phew, it felt more comfortable after washing her face.
While the others were still there, she started rummaging through the warehouse again. If she remembered correctly, she had bought a few apples in addition to oranges at the Hecheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative. She quickly found the apples, took one out, washed it, and then ate it with a crunch. After eating the apple, she drank the remaining water in the kettle.
She glanced at the time and saw that the others would not be back for a while. She thought for a moment and got up to go to the kitchen. She decided to boil a pot of hot water while she was here so that when the others came back, she would have some boiled water to drink.
Of course, the most important thing is that her new thermos needs to be left in hot water overnight before it can be used!
After boiling the water, she first filled a thermos, then heated the enamel pot, filled another pot with hot water, and waited for it to cool down before drinking it. She nodded with satisfaction. She used to drink water from a bowl, but from now on she would also drink from a pot.
Looking at the water in the pot, she thought about going to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables first and prepare them. It was Feng Xiaoyu's turn to cook today, so she would help prepare first and then go to find Aunt Ding after dinner.
By the time you hear some noise outside, the vegetables have already been cut and all you have to do is stir-fry them.
"Jia Jia, thank you, I'll do it." Feng Xiaoyu came back, washed her hands and face, tidied up, and walked to the kitchen. She took over the work from Zhuo Jia's hands and said.
Zhuo Jia nodded and said, "You're welcome. By the way, I bought a thermos, so I boiled a pot of hot water, and it's cooling in the pot."
Before they arrived at the educated youth site, there were only two thermoses, one for the male educated youth and one for the female educated youth. On weekdays, they would boil water and fill the two thermoses first, and then put the rest directly into a bowl and drink it!
"Okay, I got it. I'll put it in the thermos later." Feng Xiaoyu nodded.
But what she was thinking in her heart was that she knew that Zhuo Zhiqing was really from a wealthy family, but she didn't know who he would marry.
But thinking of the rumors she heard today, she quickly called out to Zhuo Jia: "Jia Jia, I heard from the people in the team that you asked for leave to go on a blind date. Is that true?"
She was a little bit unconvinced, because Zhuo Jia had said before that she would consider the second son of the brigade secretary, but the other party had not come back yet, so who could Zhuo Jia go on a blind date with?
Zhuo Jia shook her head: "Of course it's fake, I went to the county to take pictures."
Although taking photos can also be considered as a blind date, the two are different and cannot be confused.
Hearing that she was going to take pictures, Feng Xiaoyu's eyes lit up and she asked hurriedly, "When are you going to pick up the pictures?"
"I took the photos on an expedited basis and got them back today. Do you want to see them?" Zhuo Jia blinked and said innocently.
Feng Xiaoyu: “…Look!”
From now on, if anyone in the team wants to be lazy and want to eat swan meat, don't blame her for scolding them!
Putting down the work in her hands, Feng Xiaoyu followed Zhuo Jia back to the house to look at photos. However, as soon as she entered the house, she saw an extra thermos and enamel basin. She silently gave Zhuo Jia a thumbs up. It seemed that this trip to the county was quite fruitful.
Zhuo Jia took out the photo from her bag and handed it to Feng Xiaoyu: "Take a look, do I look good?"
"It looks good." Feng Xiaoyu took the photo, took a look at it, and said seriously.
The lesbian in the photo has a smile on her face, with dimples on both sides of her face. She is so pleasing to the eye. Who can say she is not beautiful?
Zhuo Jia smiled and said proudly, "I think it looks good too."
How come she is so beautiful?
Feng Xiaoyu pointed at her and smiled. While the two were talking, other people came back one after another. Feng Xiaoyu didn't have time to say anything else and hurried to the kitchen to cook.
As for Zhuo Jia’s photos, let’s discuss it with others!
…
After dinner, Zhuo Jia took the highly praised photos to find Aunt Ding. After handing the photos to Aunt Ding, she also received praise from Aunt Ding.
Aunt Ding held the photo and said with satisfaction, "Zhuo Zhiqing, you are so handsome!"
Fortunately, she is in charge, otherwise, who knows how lively this educated youth site would be.
Zhuo Jia pursed her lips and smiled, then asked, "Auntie Ding, what is the name of Aunt Hongying's second son?"
She was only concerned about whether Aunt Hongying would agree, and how to pretend in front of Aunt Hongying, and she completely forgot about the real person!
Aunt Ding was also stunned. She said in a daze, "Ah, didn't I tell you?"
No way, it's ten dollars for matchmaking, how could she forget such an important thing?
"No." Zhuo Jia shook her head honestly.
The two looked at each other, and Aunt Ding was the first to react. She quickly said, "Call Qiao Anchuan. I'll go deliver the photos in a moment. Don't worry, I'll urge your Aunt Hongying to deliver the letter as soon as possible."
Mistake, mistake.
Zhuo Jia coughed and said, "Well, Aunt Ding, I'll go back first. I'm sorry to bother you."
To be honest, she was a little anxious. She was just waiting to get married and move out. Her purchasing group hadn't been open for a long time!
"Okay, you go first, I'll go find your Aunt Hongying." Aunt Ding nodded.
After watching Zhuo Jia walk away, she hurried to the brigade secretary's house. This was a big deal!
…
When Zhuo Jia returned to the educated youth site, she saw everyone sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air and talking about something random.
She walked in and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"
Why does it sound like the two sides are arguing?
Feng Xiaoyu sighed, "There was a female educated youth who married into the brigade. We heard today that she's pregnant, and we're discussing whether we should go visit her tomorrow."
As for why they quarreled, it was naturally because this female educated youth had some personality problems.
Zheng Lijuan snorted and said unhappily, "Anyway, I won't go to see Wang Ping. She's the one who ruined half of our educated youth's reputation."
Zhuo Jia and Zhang Yunhuan looked at each other, and both looked over eagerly at the same time. Well, there was one meaning in their eyes: I want to listen!
Feng Xiaoyu wanted to sigh again, but she held it back. She just said helplessly, "Wang Ping was lazy and slacking off when she was at the educated youth site. She asked for leave every few days even when she was working. At the end of the year when the grain was distributed, she even owed the team money..."
Of course, the brigade did not want Wang Ping to continue to owe money, because people like Wang Ping would only owe more and more money. But if they asked Wang Ping to pay the money, Wang Ping really could not do it. After all, Wang Ping's family favored boys over girls, and no one gave her money, so she found a way to marry into a family with many brothers in the brigade.
However, Wang Ping did not live a good life after getting married, but instead became a burden to the whole family. In the end, the family was forced to split up. It can be said that she was very famous in the entire brigade.
After Wang Ping got married, she didn't get along well with the other educated youth. It was really because Wang Ping's words were very unpleasant. But no matter what, Wang Ping was married from their educated youth point, and they were considered Wang Ping's family, so it was only right for them to visit her.
After hearing what Wang Ping did, Zhuo Jia and Zhang Yunhuan looked at each other in bewilderment. No wonder no one had mentioned Wang Ping before. It was really impossible to mention her.
Zhuo Jia quickly said, "Well, you two can discuss this matter. I don't know her, so I won't go."
She is different from Wang Ping. She has money and she doesn’t owe the team anything!
"I'm not going either." Zhang Yunhuan said from the side.
After experiencing it herself, she finally understood how hard it was for rural people to work in the fields. Even so, there were still people who wanted to owe them money, which was simply unforgivable.
Other old educated youth also said, "Let's not go either."
Don't throw Wang Ping away and ruin their image.
Feng Xiaoyu and Li Zhuang looked at each other and nodded helplessly: "Okay, then we won't go."
You reap what you sow, this is the fate that Wang Ping has created herself!
Before going to bed, Zhang Yunhuan asked a question: "Jia Jia, are you still taking a day off tomorrow?"
She felt that he might have a tendency to self-abuse, otherwise why would he ask this question?
Zhuo Jia shook her head: "No."
This is an important time to find a partner. She has to pretend to be nice for her future mother-in-law, and everything will be fine after she gets married.
"Then let's go to sleep." Zhang Yunhuan said and lay down.
That’s great, I can have a good sleep today!
