Seeing her rushing forward to grab the meat, Gu Wanwan slapped her and said, "You haven't learned your lesson after being beaten so many times. Do you still want to be hung on a tree?"
Yao Ruihui covered her red and swollen face and said angrily, "I will tell the team leader that you embezzled the meat from the educated youth camp."
Liang Xin gloated, "Gu Zhiqing, you are such a bully. The meat belongs to everyone. Why do you monopolize it? Let's go to the captain's house together."
Gu Wanwan smiled mysteriously and sarcastically, "You brought disgrace upon yourself."
After these words were spoken, the new and old educated youth could no longer tolerate them.
When Yao Ruihui and other educated youth were preparing to leave the educated youth camp, Brother Zhao San just walked into the educated youth camp with some clothes in his hands, "Gu Zhiqing, your educated youth camp is really lively."
Hu Pandi saw that the person who came was the captain's third son, and she quickly ran to him to complain, "Brother Zhao, you came at the right time. Aunt Lu ordered some meat for the educated youth just now, but it was all grabbed by Gu. She is so selfish. The captain clearly sent the meat specially to welcome the new educated youth."
Zhao Sange's expression was indescribable. "Who told you that the meat was for the new educated youth? The welcoming party was three days ago. If there was any invitation, it should be given by the old educated youth. How could it be my family's turn? Ask the old educated youth, did my family offer meat to welcome them when they first came?"
The old educated youth remained silent. Is it so difficult for them to eat some meat?
Hu Pandi and others were shocked. “Isn’t that meat for us new educated youth?”
Brother Zhao III mercilessly scolded the educated youths, "Nonsense, educated youth Gu shot a pheasant and gave one to our family, so we reciprocated by giving him a piece of meat, is there a problem? We have dignity, we are not some people who want to take advantage of others by eating for free."
After saying that, he handed the clothes in his hand to Gu Wanwan, "Gu Zhiqing, these are old clothes and shoes that belong to my mother and some other children. Let your aunt and cousin wear them for now. These are given by my family. I'm sure the Gu family will be cautious and won't take them away easily."
Gu Wanwan took the clothes and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Third Brother Zhao. Please thank Sister Lu for me."
Gu Qingtang was very grateful, and the siblings politely thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Zhao."
"No need to thank me, just some old clothes." Brother Zhao scratched his head, his ears red as he hesitated to speak. After a long pause, he said, "Gu Zhiqing, I heard that your partner is Fu Jingchen from the Fu family? Then you have to be careful of Secretary Ding's family Ding Yanli. My eldest sister-in-law is not a good person and is very vindictive. I guess she will go to Ding Yanli and say bad things about you..."
Gu Wanwan's expression was calm, not too surprised, "Thank you, Third Brother Zhao, I understand."
It was not until Brother Zhao San left the educated youth site that the educated youth discovered that Gu Wanwan had eaten pheasant for lunch.
He eats two at a time. Even capitalists are not so extravagant.
Are pheasants in the mountains so easy to catch?
Even the new educated youth were moved by what they saw.
But why is Gu Wanwan so close to Gu Qingtang and his mother?
The task of chopping the chicken was given to Hu Zhiming. He cut the chicken skillfully. One could tell from his posture that he cooks often. Shican would be blessed in the future.
Zheng Shican had never cooked before, but she had a strong learning ability and cut potatoes, onions, ginger and garlic according to Gu Wanwan's requirements.
Gu Qingtang, her mother and her two sons were washing vegetables and mushrooms nearby.
Zheng Shican sighed as he cut, "Wanwan, our two chickens are such a luxury."
"I'll catch more after we finish eating. It's no big deal." Gu Wanwan was in charge of the cooking. During the few days in the countryside, she had no other extra expenses and almost all of her food was from Hu Zhiming and Zheng Shican. Others were eager to hold on to their own rations, but they fed her from time to time. It would be embarrassing to eat it for nothing.
Zheng Shican was no longer distressed, "That would be great!"
All the ingredients were prepared, and Gu Wanwan began to stir-fry the chicken nuggets. In an instant, a fragrance spread throughout the educated youth site.
The brother and sister stood by the pot, smelling the fragrant chicken, staring at the pot with shining eyes.
"We'll be eating soon, so you can eat as much as you want." Seeing that the stew was almost done, Gu Wanwan put in the potatoes and other side dishes that Zheng Shican had chopped up, and also added a handful of dried beans that Aunt Lu had brought.
On the other side, Hu Zhiming kneaded some white flour pancakes and soaked them in water for a while. When Gu Wanwan opened the lid, he spread the pancakes with his hands and stuck them to the edge of the iron pot, filling the pot. Each person ate about two, and there were some left over.
The time is almost up, so we lift the lid and start eating. The aroma of the iron pot full of stewed chicken fills the air.
Gu Wanwan and the other two first picked up some chicken for the mother and her two children, giving each of them a large chicken leg and chicken wing, and then put in some side dishes such as pancakes and potatoes.
Gu Qingtang was stuffed with a big bowl of food and she started crying silently while eating. She hadn't tasted meat for more than two years and hadn't enjoyed the warmth of home.
"Eat it, mom. My cousin's cooking is so delicious. The potatoes cut by Sister Zheng are so tasty. The pancakes made by Brother Hu are crispy and fragrant. They are so delicious when eaten with the sauce." The brother and sister ate with relish and accepted food from their cousins from time to time. Their stomachs were full.
The educated youth listened to the laughter from next door, looked at the two boiled wild vegetables on the table, and then looked at the sorghum rice in their own bowls, and felt even more bored.
Hu Pandi ate the rice in her bowl, but her eyes drifted towards the chicken. "Some people don't distinguish between relatives and strangers. They would rather generously share the food with orphans and widows than with their fellow educated youth who went to the countryside."
Yao Ruihui gritted her teeth and said, "That's right, Gu Zhiqing doesn't know how to behave. He ate two chickens and didn't even send some to Zhiqing."
"Our Gu Zhiqing is as stingy to us as he is to himself."
Yan Dewang glared at Xiong Zhiyuan and said, "We shouldn't have separated them."
Liang Xin said unhappily, "If I don't share them, I'll be ruined by them. They're just two chickens. I can afford them."
Zeng Jiliang was the only one waiting for Zheng Shican to bring him some chicken. However, he waited and waited, but Zheng Shican still didn't show up. "Qiqi, wait a moment. I'll go get the chicken myself."
Gan Qi was also envious, but she tried to pretend that she didn't care, "Shi Can is really, he treats orphans and their mother better than Brother Ji Liang, I can't tell who is my relative."
Zeng Jiliang took a big bowl to find Zheng Shican, but saw an empty iron pot, even the bottom was broken.
"Zheng Shican, you're too much. You didn't even leave a bite of chicken for me, your fiancé. The villagers all avoid the orphans and their mothers. They are jinxes. Why are you so nice to them? Do they deserve to eat chicken?"
Zheng Shican was right. "They are my aunt and cousin, and they are my elders. I don't respect my own elders, so why should I respect you, an ungrateful bastard? I say again, you are not my fiancé!"
"What?" Not only Zeng Jiliang was confused, even old educated youth like Xiong Zhiyuan were shocked.
Liang Xin looked down on him from the bottom of her heart, "I didn't expect Gu Wanwan to have such a poor country relative."
Suddenly, an arrogant voice came from outside the educated youth point, "Who is Gu Zhiqing? How dare you bully my Du family's Niu Dan? Get out here, my mother-in-law Gao Lefeng is here to see you!"
