Chapter 14: Going to Town



"Sui Huan, we have a day off tomorrow. Do you want to go to town?"

Lying down on the bed, Qin Fei asked Chen Suihuan beside her.

Chen Suihuan nodded: "Yes, I will go. I sent some packages before I left. I have to pick them up tomorrow."

"I heard that it's very cold here this day, so my parents prepared two thick quilts and a thick cotton-padded jacket for me. They have all been sent to me, and I think they have arrived soon." Gao Yue said.

Qin Fei smiled and looked up at Gao Yue who was lying on the other side of Chen Suihuan, and said, "Okay, let's go together tomorrow."

Liu Lai'nan was lying next to the three of them. Listening to their words, he couldn't help but clench his fists, and then he turned over.

Because they disturbed her, Chen Suihuan and the others raised their voices a little.

"Do you want to move out? I think there are too many people in the educated youth camp, and most importantly, the food is not good.

When I was at home, my parents would buy me some meat every now and then. Now, let alone every now and then, I have to eat some meat every seven or eight days!

I am craving meat. If I can't eat any meat for a month or two, I will definitely go crazy. "Gao Yue thought of the scene of eating just now, frowned and rubbed his stomach.

Half a pound of meat, served on two plates, each with a pair of chopsticks, there wasn't much left, she wasn't full just now.

Chen Suihuan didn't say anything, but turned to look at Qin Fei beside him. Qin Fei said, "Gao Yue and I have the same idea. I want to move out."

"It's not enough for the three of us to think about it alone. We can go ask the male educated youth tomorrow and ask them if they want to move out.

We don't know anyone here, and it's very dangerous for three girls to move out. "Chen Suihuan has considered a lot.

In this era, there are always some hooligans in every village. Even if she is strong, there will always be times when the three of them are alone, and it is too unsafe to live outside.

"Okay, then we can ask the male educated youth tomorrow. If they are willing to move out, it would be best for us to live together." Qin Fei felt that Chen Suihuan was right to worry, and said after thinking for a while.

The next morning, it was the male educated youth's turn to cook. When Chen Suihuan and the others woke up, the kitchen bell rang.

Seeing them coming out, Guo Lan said: "Your food brigade has delivered it early in the morning, 50 kilograms of coarse grains per person, and put them together with ours.

I've cooked your meal this morning. You don't have to work today, so you can pack up and take a rest. We'll leave first. ”

After saying that, he left in a hurry with other old educated youth.

The new educated youth gathered together for dinner. During the meal, Xu Tao, Li Changxu and others asked Chen Suihuan whether he wanted to go to the town.

"Go, how do we get there? On foot?" Qin Fei asked.

Ren Caiying smiled: "I found out early in the morning that the village will gather to go to the town every three days, but we can take a horse-drawn carriage."

Shengli Commune was very large and had a large population. There were eight brigades in total, and their Shengli Brigade was one of them.

Because there were so many people, Shengli Brigade was quite wealthy. The commune had not only several cows but also a lot of horses.

Hearing that they didn't have to walk, Chen Suihuan breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, walking was nothing. The main thing was to come back, and they had a lot of packages.

I have to carry it back on my back, but it will be so tiring.

Among the new educated youth, except Liu Lai'nan, all of them had to go to the town, so when they left, Liu Lai'nan looked very unhappy.

On the way to the village, Gao Yue suddenly said, "All of Liu Lainan's belongings are like a small package. The weather here is so cold, how can she survive?"

Liu Lainan seemed to be carrying a package, which contained some worn-out bedding and quilts, two sets of clothes full of patches, and he didn't even have a pair of shoes.

Those two pieces of clothing were still thin long gowns, which were no problem at the moment, but in another two months, she would be frozen to death relying on these two pieces of clothing.

Chen Suihuan didn't say anything. There were ten new educated youth in total, and except for the four of them, the others were all male educated youth.

Qin Fei and Gao Yue knew at a glance that the four of them came from good families and were all girls who were loved and brought up by their parents.

Liu Lainan, just the name tells us how she lived at home.

Chen Suihuan thought for a moment and said, "There are still two months left. Let's see how much she can earn every day. If she earns a lot, she should be able to buy a cotton coat.

If she really can't make it, we can help her. ”

Liu Lainan was a bit of a jerk, particularly fond of taking advantage of others, and a bit pretentious.

If you keep helping a person like this, maybe she will eventually grow an appetite. You can save her life, but you can't help her forever.

Qin Fei curled her lips: "I'm tired of her. She keeps chattering all the way, saying this and that are not good, and she's so hypocritical."

Chen Suihuan and Gao Yue agreed with this statement.

Chatting like this, Chen Suihuan and the others soon arrived at the village. This was the only road leading to the town, and the carriage would definitely pass by here.

Before they had waited for a while, they heard the sound of bells on the horses' necks, and then they saw a man in his fifties or sixties smoking a pipe and driving a horse-drawn carriage towards them.

The front of the carriage was very spacious, with an old man sitting in it, and next to the old man, there was another tall figure.

Chen Suihuan suddenly felt that this figure looked familiar. When he got closer, Chen Suihuan realized that it was Lu Xingyan.

Lu Xingyan saw Chen Suihuan and nodded at her.

The old man driving the carriage stopped and asked with a smile: "Are you the new educated youths here? Do you want to go to the town?"

Chen Suihuan and the others nodded.

The old man said directly: "If you want to take a carriage, it will be two cents per person."

This horse is not private but belongs to the commune. All the money earned by bringing people here and there will be handed over to the commune in the end.

Ren Caiying told them about this matter at the beginning, so they all had money in their hands, and according to the old man, they gave the money to him.

The educated youths came to the carriages, and the carriages were packed to the brim.

The women in the carriages all looked at this group of young people from the city with curiosity.

One of the women exclaimed, "You educated youth are really good-looking. Both men and women have delicate skin and tender flesh. It seems that the food in the city is very nourishing."

Another woman followed suit: "Of course, look at you educated youth girls, you are so pretty, really enviable."

"When you get a job, you must charm all the girls and boys in the village."

The looks of these women were very direct. They kept staring at them, and the educated youth felt uncomfortable because of their stares.

At this time, a woman with dark skin and a little fat suddenly smiled and nudged a spirited woman sitting next to her: "Sister-in-law, do you think these three female educated youth are good-looking? How about marrying them to your third son?"
