Especially Xu Yan's face, which was so white under the scorching sun that it looked like it was about to melt, was too thin, looking like a skeleton barely holding on with a layer of flesh sticking out.
He even walks with a limp.
“But we can’t touch these things either,” Zhou Jingjing glanced outside, her face full of displeasure. “These are for us to treat ourselves after a hard day’s work. Otherwise, who can survive the busy farming season? Besides, she’s much richer than us. What hasn’t she eaten before?”
"But," Qin Li wanted to say something, but Zhou Jingjing interrupted her directly.
“But what do you mean, ‘but’?” Zhou Jingjing looked at her. “We’ve already said before that these things should be shared. If you give her a portion now, there will be one less when we divide the food. Should we give her yours?”
Qin Li fell silent.
The peach shortbread, malted milk powder, and candy on the left side of the cabinet were indeed shared by everyone. Life in the countryside was tough, and these educated youth sent to the countryside really couldn't endure it. If it weren't for the peach shortbread and candy they could eat every morning to sweeten their mouths, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for long.
Seeing her silence, Zhou Jingjing pulled out a burlap sack from the other side of the cabinet and took out a few pieces of dried sweet potato. "These are enough for her to eat."
Xu Yan: "..."
Xu Yan stood outside watching the two of them struggle.
Although she couldn't see what was inside the cabinet from the outside, she could tell from their conversation that the original owner of this body seemed to have been excluded from this educated youth settlement.
otherwise--
What do you mean by sharing the food? You give her a portion, and then give her yours later?
Doesn't she belong to "the whole family"?
However, now is not the time to worry about these things; the most important thing is to fill our stomachs first.
The feeling of being hungry is just too unbearable.
Over there, Qin Li finally scooped out a little less than half a bowl of corn grits to cook a corn grits porridge. When her gaze swept over Xu Yan's empty clothes, she steamed two more pieces of dried sweet potato.
While waiting for the food to be ready, the female educated youth who had helped Xu Yan back earlier came out of the dormitory and sat in the kitchen. She only glanced at Qin Li as she served the porridge before returning to the dormitory.
Xu Yan didn't have time to think about what she meant; all she knew was that if she didn't eat soon, she would really faint from hunger.
Before Qin Li even called her to eat, she had already eagerly sat down at the table, not even bothering to wash her hands.
However, when she saw a bowl of porridge so clear that she could count the corn grits at the bottom, she almost couldn't hold back the swear words that were about to come out of her mouth again.
What kind of hellish life is this?!
In her past life, she ate more diet meals than this during a period of dieting...
Even so, Xu Yan couldn't wait for the porridge to cool down completely before she picked it up and took a sip. After finishing, she picked up a piece of dried sweet potato with her chopsticks and took a big bite before she felt her nauseous stomach feel a little better.
The cicadas still sing in the summer.
The educated youth settlement was near the woods, so the sounds were louder.
Noisy and tireless.
After Xu Yan finished the bowl of porridge that barely qualifyed as porridge, she was still hungry, but at least she wasn't as uncomfortable as before. She didn't wash the dishes and carefully looked around the entire educated youth settlement again, but she still couldn't find any useful information in her mind.
She sighed.
Never mind, at least I'm still alive.
Just as she was about to wash the dishes and then try to get some information out of the two female educated youths, she saw several people walking towards the educated youth settlement not far away, chatting and laughing.
For some reason, her gaze suddenly fell on a tall, thin man wearing rimless glasses who was walking in the middle.
