Ning Xiyue's idea was very simple. She wanted to give herself some time to be lazy, especially to sleep a little longer in the morning. She would go to the cafeteria to eat in the morning, and go home to cook for herself at noon and in the evening. If she didn't want to cook, she would go to the cafeteria to eat.
It can give her another choice of where to eat.
I use the team canteen when I'm lazy, the small kitchen in the Youth League compound improves the food, and the automatic kitchen in the space is used for snacks after studying.
These three places to make a living made her life in the countryside complete.
Ning Xiyue looked at Aunt Yang Liu and asked the question that concerned her most: "Aunt, who should I contact if I want to buy a meal ticket or exchange rations for food?"
The other aunts turned their eyes to Ning Xiyue, seemingly surprised, but since Ning Xiyue asked this question, they could understand it and were not very surprised.
Aunt Liu asked curiously, "Xiyue, are you trying to exchange for a meal ticket?"
Ning Xiyue didn't confirm it outright, and answered ambiguously: "I'm just asking out of curiosity. It's always good to know more. If I want to go to the cafeteria to eat, I'll know where to go and avoid being blind."
For the members of the gossip group who are like little smart people, useful information itself is indeed very attractive.
Aunt Liu's eyes lit up. How could she not have thought of this? She became interested again.
"That's right. Knowing more will make chatting with others more enjoyable. Yang Liu, tell us about it."
"There's a window next to the cafeteria that handles these things. If you want to exchange tickets or do something else, you can go to this window. This is the only window that can handle it. You can't go wrong with this window."
Aunt Yang Liu finally looked at Ning Xiyue and smiled. These words were mainly said to Ning Xiyue. Apart from her, few people here were really interested in these things.
"Thank you, auntie. I understand." Ning Xiyue didn't ask any more questions. She quietly pulled weeds and listened to the aunties.
"That's great, it's convenient." Aunt Liu was happy to know one more piece of news.
That's how she got the information that others didn't know. The main thing is the time difference. They are the first ones to know the news, so they feel superior when chatting.
And getting information is what the aunts are most keen on. Once they know something, they will immediately ask about something else they want to know.
Aunt Zhao asked, "By the way, Yang Liu, will there be any new educated youth coming this year? I don't think there are many left in Xiyue's Youth House."
Ning Xiyue became excited again when she heard about this. Since it concerned the harmony of their Youth League Institute, they had to listen carefully.
Aunt Qian said jokingly, "Old Zhao, why do you care whether the educated youth come or not? Why do you want to choose a wife for your son?"
Aunt Zhao said with a snort, "Go away, what are you talking about? I'm just asking. Educated youth come here almost every year, and right now is the busy spring plowing season. Let's see what the organization has arranged."
One aunt grumbled, "It doesn't matter whether these new educated youth come or not. The spring plowing work is heavy right now, and those newcomers don't know anything, so even if they come they won't be able to help much."
Aunt Sun continued, "You can go see a play. Look how wonderful last year's play was. It was no worse than the movie that the projectionist showed."
"Old Sun is right. This is what I really think."
Aunt Zhao smiled obscenely, and then thought of the educated youth next to her, so she smiled apologetically towards Ning Xiyue.
"Xiyue, don't mind it. I'm not talking about you. The people in the Youth League are all very nice. You're even a good girl. You're the best Youth League member in our Daliu team and have long been a member of our team."
Ning Xiyue:......
She said that these aunts were suddenly concerned about when the new educated youth would arrive, and it turned out that they wanted to watch the show.
Everything is for the sake of watching the show.
"I don't mind, Auntie." Ning Xiyue shook her head firmly and said, "Don't forget to invite me when you go to the show."
There's really nothing to mind. It's not about her, and she's not going to cause trouble, so it doesn't stop her from enjoying the show.
Aunt Zhang said cheerfully, "I like people like Xiyue. We get along well. Yangliu, do you have any news?"
Aunt Yang Liu spread her hands and shook her head helplessly: "I can't answer this question for you, because I don't know either. I haven't received any notice from the higher-ups yet. I'll tell you when I do."
Aunt Zhao went to get an empty backpack to fill with grass and said what she was thinking: "I reckon it won't be long. Let's just wait. We have a new coal mining team stationed here now. It's already busy, and the arrival of the new educated youth will make it even more lively."
Ning Xiyue agreed with Aunt Zhao.
"Just watch. Now we should work harder to pull out the weeds. It will be more practical to finish the task earlier and go back for dinner." Aunt Yang Liu reminded while picking up a handful of grass.
After saying this, everyone stopped talking about gossip for the time being and started to work hard to remove the weeds.
The pulled grass cannot be left in the ground. The roots need to be picked out to prevent it from growing again.
When work ended at noon, Ning Xiyue carried a basket of grass back and dumped it on the dam to dry. After that, she happily walked to the brigade canteen not far away to eat.
At the door, I met Wang Mengmeng, Liu Yao and Wang Jiandong who had just finished work and were here to inquire about the situation.
"Hey, come over for dinner."
The four of them looked at each other at the door and smiled knowingly.
