Ning Xiyue was thinking about asking Uncle Dajian to go back and check the beams of the Youth League House one by one, if for no other reason than for her own life.
The houses in the Youth League Home are all connected together. If one place collapses, it will easily affect the rest of the area. It has just started snowing now so the impact won’t be big. I can take this opportunity to fix it and feel at ease.
The people queuing next to us rolled their eyes and said, "You educated youth are just worrying about nothing. You're wasting your time and energy. Repairs cost money. We have so much money to burn. Listen to your uncle and don't waste it. Save it for buying meat."
Ning Xiyue heard the stubborn words of the uncle next door and slapped her thigh to refute:
"Oh, Uncle Li Qiang, you can't say that. There's always a chance something might happen. I'm timid, so it's worth spending a little money to keep myself safe. If anything goes wrong, I can't escape. This is called being thoughtful. It's always a good idea to think more."
Chen Yechu looked at Uncle Li who was talking to Ning Xiyue, his eyes thoughtful. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke: "Uncle Li, I suggest you check your house too. Instead of hiring a professional house repairman, you can check it yourself. It will only take a little time. If something goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it. There is no medicine for regret."
When Li Qiang heard this, he became unhappy and looked at Chen Yechu and said, "My house is solid. Stop cursing at my family. It's unlucky."
Chen Yechu: ...
She shouldn't meddle in other people's business.
"I'm meddling." Chen Yetu withdrew his gaze and said coldly.
Ning Xiyue: Well, it seems that there is something wrong with Uncle Li Qiang’s house, but he doesn’t believe it and will suffer.
Yu Zhi was wronged by someone he didn't like, so he stood up and spoke for Chen Yechu. His voice was unusually strong:
"Uncle, we are just kindly reminding you that some unexpected situations are unpredictable. If you don't believe it, forget it. There is no need to slander you."
"Hey…"
Li Qiang was not convinced, so he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to speak, but was stopped in time by someone behind him.
"Old Li, you too, why bother with the youngsters? Don't just remind them, just say less. Chen Zhiqing didn't curse you. It's okay if you don't believe me, Old Li. Don't think too much about it. On this day of food distribution, harmony is the most important thing."
With the help of the middleman, Li Qiang turned his head away and ignored it, and the quarrel was averted.
Ning Xiyue learned a lot today. Some members are narrow-minded and easily angered. They want to make trouble when something makes them unhappy.
A little carelessness can lead to a farce.
"Ye Chu, eat some candy. You'll feel better after eating it. Don't bother with those people." Liu Yao leaned close to Chen Ye Chu's ear to comfort her, and took out a piece of fruit candy and handed it to her.
Ning Xiyue looked at Chen Yechu, who was silent, with a bad expression on her face. She patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay. I'll listen to you and ask for help later."
The eldest sister, Wu Guifang, came over and raised her voice, saying, "We in the Youth Home all listen to you. Let's pool our money together to hire someone to inspect it. It won't cost much if we split the bill, and it will give us peace of mind and security."
"Okay, thank you. Don't worry about me. I'm fine."
Chen Yetu looked at everyone in the Youth League Home and smiled. The unhappiness in her heart disappeared. If she didn't listen to the kind reminder, she wouldn't be the one who would be sad in the future. This was simply an unprovoked disaster. She was the one who was unlucky.
Ning Xiyue also withdrew her gaze, lined up, and stopped chatting. It would be her turn in two people.
I simply looked around to see what was happening.
Those who distribute food bring their own tools to carry the food.
Some people carry them in baskets, some carry them in backpacks, and of course sacks are indispensable.
Many members who had already received their share of grain were using carts or other means of transporting grain to their homes. They all had happy smiles on their faces, and their complexions were rosy.
All with the joy of harvest.
The families of the members with more labor and more hardworking people received more food, and the smiles on their faces were different. They were smiling from ear to ear, and the smiles on their faces never stopped.
Ning Xiyueguang could tell from the expressions on everyone's faces how much food each family had received.
At this time, the people in front of Ning Xiyue had already divided the food and left, and it was her turn.
Uncle An Guo looked up, found Ning Xiyue's name on the account book, and pointed at it: "Ning Xiyue, check it out. If there is no problem, sign here."
"good."
Ning Xiyue looked down at the work points recorded in the account book. There were not many. She had only worked for more than three months. One month was in the drying group, earning seven work points a day, and the remaining two months were in the clinic, earning ten work points a day. In total, she had only 910 work points, and the amount of food she could get was pitifully small.
After deducting the one-month rations I borrowed from the brigade when I first came to the team, I only got 40 kilograms of shelled millet, 20 kilograms of corn, and 60 kilograms of sweet potatoes. The total subsidy for more than two months at the health center was 7 yuan.
There was no problem with the account book, so Ning Xiyue signed her name.
Zhao Anguo handed the money to Ning Xiyue and went to the side to get food.
Ning Xiyue was very happy to get her own food and money. She didn't think it was too little. It was the result of her labor. Touching the grain in the sack, she felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart.
Ning Xiyue didn't have much stuff, so she could lift it easily. She simply retreated to a less crowded place nearby and waited for the other people in the Youth League compound to go back together.
Ning Xiyue took out her moving bricks and tried out the luxury seat mode to see what it felt like.
Turn the brick into the leather sofa mode of a domineering president's house.
Putting it on the ground, Ning Xiyue sat on it with great interest to feel the ultimate comfort that only a domineering CEO could experience.
After sitting down, Ning Xiyue closed her eyes unconsciously, feeling the strength on her back and the warmth wrapping around her head.
I sighed in my heart.
Wow, this is so comfortable. It even has a built-in back push function and protection against rain and snow. This upgraded brick is really smart and comfortable!
Ning Xiyue was enjoying the comfort brought by the bricks. After opening her eyes, she was not idle. She looked around comfortably and finally saw Uncle Dajian loading grain onto a cart by the dam.
Seeing that he had only two bags of food left and was about to pack up and leave, Ning Xiyue reluctantly put away the extremely comfortable brick and walked towards Uncle Dajian.
Walking closer, he called out with a smile, "Uncle Dajian."
"Hey, Xiyue girl, what's the matter?" Uncle Dajian responded while loading the last bag of grain onto the cart.
Time is precious, so Ning Xiyue said directly, "Uncle, the educated youth in our educated youth courtyard would like you to help us with a comprehensive inspection of the house in our courtyard. Do you have time today?"
"Okay, when I have time, I'll go to your Youth League Home after I bring the food back."
When Uncle Dajian heard that there was a business opportunity, he immediately agreed and was the most generous when it came to paying for work done in the Youth League Home.
"Sorry to bother Uncle Dajian."
After Ning Xiyue and Uncle Dajian had agreed, the educated youths in the educated youth compound came out carrying the food they had been allocated. Ning Xiyue waved and they all came over. Then they discussed the expenses with Uncle Dajian together, and the matter was settled.
