"I'm a stingy person. If you're generous, let everyone see what you bought today. Don't hide it."
After Jiang Yunshu finished speaking, he reached out to look for the things at Lin Baozhen's feet. Lin Baozhen became anxious and quickly hugged the things in her arms, protecting them tightly, fearing that someone would snatch them away.
The bag contained meat that she had risked her life to buy at the black market, and she couldn't let anyone else see it.
Jiang Yunshu sneered, "Why? Are you so hypocritical? You can turn over other people's things, but you can't do it yourself? You're so stingy. You don't even want your things, but you won't even let you look at them."
She doesn't want to cause trouble, but she's not afraid of it either. If she lives her life over again, no one will dare to ride on her head and pee or shit on her.
"You...I won't bother with a little girl like you."
Knowing that she couldn't win the argument with Jiang Yunshu, Lin Baozhen simply turned around, believing that out of sight, out of mind.
At this time, the others also realized that Jiang Yunshu was not a good person, so they kept their mouths shut and kept staring at the pile of things Jiang Yunshu bought.
What a wasteful thing! How much money must it cost to buy so many things? I could have enough money to marry a wife.
This educated youth from the city just doesn't know how to live. Whoever marries her in the future will have bad luck for his ancestors for eight generations.
Jiang Yunshu, who felt sleepy as soon as she got on the ox cart, naturally had no idea what they were thinking. When she opened her eyes again, they had already arrived at their destination.
When she looked again, she and Wan Xinyu were the only ones left in the car.
Seeing Jiang Yunshu wake up, Wan Xinyu dared to speak: "Jiang Zhiqing, it's time for us to get off the bus."
The two of them carried their things back to the educated youth site.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Yang Chengyu approaching and complaining, "Jiang Zhiqing, why didn't you tell us you were going to the county today? We also want to go to the county to buy some things."
Jiang Yunshu glanced at Yang Chengyu and said, "Your legs are on your own body. Can I stop you if you want to go?"
Yang Chengyu is a person who cries easily, and he just wants to stay away from her. Why would she rush to cause trouble for him?
Yang Chengyu was speechless and froze in place, not knowing what to do. It was Li Caixia who noticed that something was amiss and stepped forward to help her out. "Jiang Zhiqing, you must be exhausted from the journey. Come back to your room and rest for a while."
"Yeah." Jiang Yunshu jumped over Yang Chengyu, carried the things and went back to the house to lie down.
As soon as her butt touched the bed, she heard crying outside the door.
Li Caixia coaxed, "Yang Zhiqing, don't cry. Jiang Zhiqing means no harm."
"She just... has ill intentions towards me..."
Yang Chengyu was crying so hard that she was out of breath. The other educated youth didn't even have time to eat and ran over to comfort her.
Wan Xinyu, who was about to go back to his room, couldn't stand people talking about his thick thighs, so he retorted directly: "Yang Zhiqing, if you dare to slander Jiang Zhiqing again, I will call the team leader to judge the matter."
"You...you...you can't tell right from wrong..." Yang Chengyu was shaking with anger.
Wan Xinyu said, "I just can't tell right from wrong. What can you do to me?"
During his time in the countryside, he relied entirely on Jiang Yunshu to lead him out of his misery and help him soar, so naturally he would not allow anyone to bully her in the slightest.
Yang Chengyu really couldn't do anything about him, so in the end she put all the blame on Jiang Yunshu.
She will definitely find a way to take revenge in the future, regardless of old or new grudges.
In the afternoon, when the sun was not so scorching, Jiang Yunshu called Shang Wan Xinyu out.
With Wan Xinyu's showy face, Jiang Yunshu quickly found out the address of the carpenter's house.
The carpenter's surname was Wang, and he was old. Everyone in the team called him Old Wang. He was the only person within dozens of miles who could do carpentry work. When Jiang Yunshu and Wan Xinyu arrived, Old Wang was concentrating on carpentry work.
The one who received Jiang Yunshu and the others was Old Wang's wife, Aunt Hua.
Aunt Hua recognized them at a glance as the new educated youth who had arrived yesterday. She quickly brought stools for them to sit on and went back to the house to pour out two bowls of water.
Jiang Yunshu wasn't one to waste time. He didn't even drink the water and went straight to the point: "Aunt, we're going to move out of the educated youth camp in a few days. I'd like to take advantage of this time to ask Uncle Wang to make two sets of furniture."
When Aunt Hua heard that there was a job for her, she smiled happily: "Auntie, I'm not bragging. Your uncle Wang has been a carpenter for decades. You've come to the right person today. Leave the furniture to my husband. You can rest assured."
Jiang Yunshu said, "Aunt is right. We are naturally relieved to leave it to Uncle Wang."
She had to be at ease even though she was worried. These days, craftsmanship is not passed on to outsiders. The Wang family is the only family that can do it within a radius of dozens of miles, and she couldn't find any other family to compare with.
As long as the quality is acceptable, she won't stay here for long, six or seven years at most.
During the conversation with Aunt Hua, Jiang Yunshu finally decided on the furniture she wanted.
There must be a bed, a square table for dining with four chairs, a cabinet, a wardrobe, and a washbasin rack.
In addition, there are two small stools that are convenient to carry when going out.
The other furniture was fine, except for the large bed, which was 1.8 by 2 meters. Aunt Hua was a little surprised, but out of kindness, she advised:
"Jiang Zhiqing, isn't this bed a bit too big for you? Why don't you get a smaller one? That way you can save some money."
Jiang Yunshu said honestly, "Aunt, I'll just have one that's 1.8 by 2 meters. I'm not a good sleeper, and a bed that's too small won't make me comfortable, and I'll easily fall off the bed."
Little did he know that in order to make things convenient for himself, Jiang Yunshu was invisibly providing a great convenience for someone else to behave shamelessly in the future.
After hearing what she said, Aunt Hua stopped trying to persuade her. She turned to look at Wan Xinyu, who had been sitting there for a long time without saying a word. "Wan Zhiqing, what kind of furniture do you want to make?"
Wan Xinyu said, "I have the same idea as Jiang Zhiqing, but I don't need a bed that big. It will be fine, Auntie."
The bed was too big and he didn't feel safe sleeping on it.
Aunt Hua said, "Okay, I'll urge you to get it done as soon as possible these few days so that you don't delay your move to your new home."
The educated youth who came from the city are rich, and they build houses and make things. But the more educated youth like this come, the better.
Only if they are willing to spend money to make things will her Wang family have a chance to make money.
Jiang Yunshu and Wan Xinyu thanked her, left a deposit of five yuan each, and returned to the educated youth site.
As the sun was about to set, Wan Xinyu found Jiang Yunshu and asked, "Jiang Zhiqing, what do you want to eat?"
"Can you make braised pork? I cut a few pounds of meat today."
"I can cook. Shall we have braised pork today?"
Come to think of it, Wan Xinyu hasn't eaten meat for several days, and he really wants it.
"Today we're having braised pork. We're going to fry the two loofahs the captain's wife gave us yesterday with eggs, and add some cornmeal pancakes.
You cook, and I'll help you. We'll try to finish the meal before they get off work."
Wan Xinyu readily agreed and immediately went into the kitchen to start working.
While Wan Xinyu was cutting meat, Jiang Yunshu went to the straw stack outside and pulled a lot of straw stalks back to the educated youth site.
There were holes all around the straw stack, so it was obvious that she was not the only one who pulled straw to make fire and cook.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yunshu felt a lot more at ease.
