Chapter 54: Reservoir repair, Fang Rou thunders

After processing the cabbages and radishes in the fields, all the work in the fields was finished, which meant that Heilongjiang Province officially entered the winter leisure time.

However, Hongqi Commune still has another task to carry out, which is the annual reservoir repair work.

This job is extremely hard, especially in winter. Every time people go there they come back extremely thin. Fortunately, there is still another winter to make up for it, otherwise even a grown man would not be able to stand it.

At this time, the educated youth sites were always very silent.

Because the educated youth had to go to repair the reservoir every year, this was also the sin committed by that predecessor, who brought disaster to many people.

However, there was one exception.

When Fang Mingyang announced that everyone had to go to repair the reservoir, Fang Rou lightly threw out a bomb.

She is going to be a teacher in the commune primary school!

When this news came out, Qi Zhijun was stunned!

He looked at Fang Rou, who had a calm face, and felt an unknown fire burning from the bottom of his heart.

Song Lanlan was throwing things around in a weird manner, implying that Fang Rou had obtained this opportunity by improper means.

Fang Rou was not used to her either. She looked straight into her eyes and said two words softly. Song Lanlan was so scared that her face turned pale and she never dared to complain again.

Fang Mingyang frowned, and although he didn't say anything, his dissatisfaction was obvious. Unfortunately, Fang Rou didn't buy it and ignored him.

Chen Erhong's eyes were deep. He looked at her quietly for a while and then lowered his head.

Hou Wei followed suit and flattered, asking insinuations whether there were any positions available and whether he could go.

Liu Yan was so angry that her teeth were itching, and she didn't understand why Fang Rou got all the good things.

When he saw Qi Zhijun with a lost look on his face, he became happy again, so that he and Qi Zhijun could spend more time together.

Zhang Xiaojun and Liu Daye were somewhat envious and jealous, but they were even more upset because they were about to go and repair the reservoir, and the old educated youth said that they were going to work very hard.

Cai Mingcheng was a transparent person as usual. He didn't show any reaction and just huddled by the stove to warm himself.

In the whole audience, only the silly girl Qin Fangfang sincerely congratulated Fang Rou, and Fang Rou responded with a smile.

When it got dark and everyone went back to sleep, Qi Zhijun found Fang Rou.

In the darkness, Qi Zhijun couldn't see Fang Rou's face clearly, but he felt that this girl had changed.

"Xiao Rou, why didn't you tell me that you were going to the commune primary school!?"

Is it really as Liu Yan said, that you are afraid that I will take your place?

Fang Rou found his accusations a little funny. Why did he ask her that?!

But she still lowered her voice and said aggrievedly: "Do you have time? You are with Liu Yan all the time. It is difficult for me to talk to you in private. Before such a thing is confirmed, can I announce it to the public and say it casually?"

The girl's soft and aggrieved voice sounded, like a gentle hand touching the softness in Qi Zhijun's heart.

Yes, he hasn't been alone with Xiaorou for a long time, and she hasn't had the chance to tell him.

Then he frowned: "It's all Liu Yan's fault. She followed me all the time, which delayed you from telling me the news. But Xiaorou, it's good that you went. Repairing the reservoir is too hard, and I don't want you to go."

Fang Rou's lips curled up sarcastically, blaming Liu Yan for sticking to you, but that's just because you didn't refuse her and were enjoying Liu Yan's flattery!

A pair of bastards!

"I'm glad that Brother Zhijun doesn't blame me. You should also pay attention to safety when you go to repair the reservoir."

The call of "Brother Zhijun" successfully fooled Qi Zhijun into becoming an idiot. He generously lent his bicycle to Fang Rou to facilitate her commuting.

Fang Rou naturally agreed happily and called Zhijun "Brother" a few more times, making Qi Zhijun so happy that he didn't know what to do.

After seeing off the stupid dog Qi Zhijun, Fang Rou was stopped by a low female voice.

She looked at the shrinking woman with amusement and a little bored.

"How do you know that?"

Song Lanlan was timid and cowardly, appearing tough on the outside but timid on the inside, and her true colors were revealed the moment she opened her mouth.

Fang Rou yawned elegantly: "It doesn't matter how I know this. You just need to know that you can't afford to offend me and be a good boy and don't cause any trouble for me. Otherwise, haha!"

After saying that, without waiting for Song Lanlan to react, he turned around, went into the house and closed the door.

Song Lanlan was left covered in cold sweat. She shivered in the cold wind and her whole body slowly fell along the wall.

Since then, Song Lanlan remained silent for a while and never provoked Fang Rou again.

Mingdai learned the news about the reservoir construction from Aunt Huang who came over to tell her in person, and she also carried two large sacks of dried vegetables that she had promised to give her.

It was the first time for Auntie Huang to come to the small courtyard behind the educated youth site. Tiedan led the way and they came in through the small door at the back.

Mingdai was a little curious when she heard the knock on the door. She opened it and saw that it was Aunt Huang who quickly invited a few people in.

Huang's younger son Liu Laifa was carrying two sacks of dried vegetables. He smiled shyly and asked where the dried vegetables were. Then he put them down and turned away. Mingdai couldn't stop him.

Aunt Huang held her back and said, "Don't worry about him. He has always had the personality of a cat. I even suspected that he had given birth to a concubine!"

Mingdai was amused by Huang Auntie's metaphor and stopped chasing her. She called her and Tiedan and Goudan into the house together.

Although it was not the first time for the two little guys to come here, they were still a little shy. They held on to their grandmother's clothes tightly and almost tripped Aunt Huang.

"Get out of here! This is not worthy of being served. If you get me into trouble again, you will all be treated to a feast!"

As he spoke, he looked around the small courtyard. It was really nice looking. Just take two piles of firewood, it would take a whole family to chop them all. Now Xiao Ming, the educated youth, had it.

After entering the house, I was even more amazed by Xiao Ming's tidy house and clean walls.

They had a kang in the room, so the smoke was inevitable. She hadn't expected Xiao Ming's room to be so clean. She felt a little embarrassed to come in.

Ming Dai came over with a hot water kettle and three bowls from the cupboard. Seeing Auntie Huang and the other two still standing there, she hurriedly called out to them, "Auntie, come on the bed! Tiedan and Goudan, come here. Auntie will get you something delicious."

Aunt Huang then embarrassedly brushed off the loose dust on her body, and then brushed off the dust on the two mud monkeys. She felt even more embarrassed when she saw Goudan's big sniffling nose. She pinched it hard and was about to smear it on the wall, but she saw Xiaoming's educated youth's neat wall covered with newspapers and couldn't bring herself to do it.

It was Mingdai who saw it and took some straw paper from the table on the kang and passed it to her, which saved her from the predicament.

Mingdai reached out and carried the five-year-old puppy, Dan, to the kang, and then asked Tiedan to come up by himself. She couldn't carry the eight-year-old little monkey.

When Goudan was hugged by Aunt Xiao Ming, he felt that Aunt Xiao Ming smelled so good, which was different from the smell of his mother and grandmother. He actually became shy and sat upright, unlike when he was at home, when he wanted to roll over and fight with others on the kang.

Tiedan did the same. He sat quietly on the edge of the kang and didn't dare to go up.

Aunt Huang picked up the paper and threw it into a bamboo basket full of waste paper. She thought it was a good idea, both convenient and hygienic.

I looked around Mingdai's room carefully again. There was no fancy decoration. The furniture was all old-fashioned, not even painted red. It was all the original color of the wood. The only extra things were some bamboo baskets and so on, but it made people feel comfortable for some reason.
