The days without Ning Xiaoxiao in the Youth League Home were completely peaceful.
The other educated youth in the Youth House were also busy with their own things.
Ning Xiyue discovered that Chen Yechu had been going out early and coming back late these days, and seemed to be learning carpentry from Aunt Qiuju's uncle, Master Chen.
It seems that the heroine has started her journey of learning skills and preparing to make money in the future.
Ning Xiyue was not irritated and was not in a hurry at all. There would be many opportunities to make money, not just this moment.
Wu Zhigang also became much quieter and would take a detour when he saw Ning Xiyue.
Ning Xiyue didn't bother to care about him. She planted vegetables on the wasteland next to the Youth League Home. After work every day, she either tended her vegetable garden or processed her wild boar meat.
I learned how to smoke bacon using cypress branches from Aunt Yang Liu.
With the help of Aunt Qiuju, I learned how to make spicy dried meat.
I also learned the unique way of making braised pork from Aunt Liu, the gossip leader.
After processing all the wild boar meat, I just waited for it to dry out and then mailed it to various places.
The most important thing is that during the four days, she got up every morning to pull out Xiao Hui's wolf tooth amulets and successfully obtained four amulets.
I kept one for myself, one each for my parents at home and my older brother in the army.
After wearing the amulet, Ning Xiyue felt at peace and was not afraid of anything when she touched it.
After dinner in the evening, I went to the big willow tree to enjoy the cool air, chatted with the aunts in the team about gossip, and signed the mango sago.
The remaining sign-in opportunities were either to sign in three taels of pork when asking Aunt Chunsheng for advice on raising piglets, or to go to the reservoir to sign in fish and bring them back to the space to make dried fish. No sign-in opportunity was wasted.
Before going to bed at night, I would take advantage of the opportunity to go to the simulation room to learn Chinese herbal medicine, high school textbooks, knitting knowledge and other useful skills.
I get up in the morning and practice Tai Chi in the Youth League Home to exercise my body.
The fourth day without the troublemaker was still a happy day.
Just when Ning Xiyue thought that her life would continue to be so plain and happy, Li Xiuxiu found Ning Xiyue sifting rice residue on the dam with an excited look on her face.
"Xiyue, let's go, let's go watch the show."
Ning Xiyue's movements quickened when she heard the drama: "Wait, wait, I'll go after I finish here."
"I'll help you, hurry up."
With the help of Li Xiuxiu, the remaining work was finished in just a few minutes.
Ning Xiyue said hello to Aunt Yang Liu and followed Li Xiuxiu, followed by the other four aunts from the gossip group.
This time the accident happened in the pig house.
It was not far from the drying dam where Ning Xiyue was, and the screams could be heard from a long distance away.
"We've found the long pole. Xia Zhiqing, Li Jiandang, quickly pull the poles tight and we'll pull you up."
Ning Xiyue's eyes lit up when she heard the two familiar names.
Looking around, I saw Chen Yetu with a cold face and Yu Zhiyu who also looked unhappy.
Oh my, is this a drama of three men fighting for one woman?
Ning Xiyue was looking forward to what would happen next, but she looked towards the pit and saw no one.
"Did they both fall into the pit? Where are they? Why can't I see them?"
Li Xiuxiu pulled Ning Xiyue to squat down and pointed at the dark figure inside.
"What about down there? Did you see it? It went into the ladle. The bottom of our team's pigpen is half empty. I don't know how those two fell in there."
"Hold on tight, I'm going to pull back." A young member of the team shouted inside.
"I caught it."
Muffled and indistinct voices were heard from the two people.
Ning Xiyue thought that the two of them might have their mouths and throats blocked by pig feces and urine, which was why they made such sounds.
"Let's stand further away so they don't get their shit on us."
I don’t know which aunt shouted.
The onlookers all took a few steps back.
Aunt Liu covered her mouth and looked at Xia Zhipeng and Li Jiandang who were being dragged up with disdain: "It stinks so much, I'm afraid these two have been pickled."
"Hahaha, indeed." Li Xiuxiu smiled carelessly.
Ning Xiyue couldn't help laughing. Aunt Liu said what she wanted to say.
Two people went into the nearby cesspool and stirred it up, and the foul stench came out.
Add to that two human-shaped dung sticks covered in dung, and the smell is simply too overpowering.
Aunt Qian shook her head. "Neither of them can swim. They fell into the cesspool and couldn't even get out. They're so useless."
When Xia Zhipeng and Li Jiandang heard this, they wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
The captain said sternly, "What are you two doing today? Why are you here in the pig pen for no reason? If you scare our team's pigs, you two will spend more than a month soaking in the manure pit. These are our team's mission pigs, no jokes."
Xia Zhipeng looked around, then glanced at Chen Yechu. Not wanting to anger the captain, he decided to conceal the actual situation. He said with a half-smile and half-stiff face:
"Captain, it's nothing serious. We just came here to use the restroom and accidentally fell into the pit, right, Comrade Jiandang?"
The incident with Wu Xiuli had already upset the captain. Li Jiandang was a bit smart and said in line with Xia Zhipeng's words:
"Yes, Captain. We didn't step firmly and slipped, and that's why we fell into the pit. I'm sorry, Captain. We scared the piglets in the pigpen."
The captain saw that the pigs in the pigpen were peaceful and not startled. The pigs themselves said they were fine, so he didn't want to bother with the two people and waved his hand impatiently:
"Alright, alright, go back and clean yourself up. Look at what you're doing. Don't use the restroom here next time."
The onlookers dispersed when they saw that there was nothing to eat or watch.
Ning Xiyue left with great regret. They just parted like that. It was over just after the beginning?
"Xiu Xiu, I have to go back to work first. This gossip is really boring."
Li Xiuxiu also drooped her head. "Okay, I'm going back to work too. I still have half an hour to go. Sigh, it ended too quickly this time."
After the two separated, they each returned to their work place to continue working.
After work, Ning Xiyue took her things back to the Youth League Home. When she walked to the back of the house to her small kitchen that she had already built to check on the drying of the earthen stove, she heard voices outside the house.
What she didn't expect was that the gossip that had just started well but ended badly was actually continued in the Youth League Home.
