Chapter 16 Going to the Commune



Li Mao raised his teacup and said, "I am offering tea instead of wine. On behalf of the veteran educated youth, I welcome all the new educated youth. I won't say anything more. Let's eat!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone started to use their chopsticks. The new educated youth had no experience, but they quickly reacted when they saw the old educated youth using their chopsticks so quickly.

Although the cooking seasonings were limited, it had to be said that Liu Li and Wan Fang's cooking skills were really good, and Xu Manman's stomach was so full after eating so much.

After dinner, I washed my lunch box and helped tidy up the kitchen before returning to my room.

Although she had taken a shower in the afternoon, Xu Manman still felt covered in oil smoke after cooking. While everyone had finished cleaning up, she took a tray of water into the bathroom and took a quick shower in the bathroom in the space.

I have a day off tomorrow and have to go to the commune. The package sent from home should have arrived. I will start cooking on my own in the future, so I have to pack up some of the things in the system backpack. I will find a chance to take them out tomorrow and bring them back together then.

Zhang Yuan asked during dinner. Every other day, the village's ox cart would go to the commune and gather at the village entrance around 7 o'clock, so he had to go to bed early and get up early today. He set an alarm in the system and then Xu Manman went to sleep.

A dreamless night.

——

Today's balance: 465.6 yuan, remaining check-in time: 0 o'clock

——

“Ding, ding, ding.”

Xu Manman woke up at 6:30, when it was already daybreak. She tapped Liu Hua beside her to wake her up, and then she got dressed and went out to wash up. The old educated youth also got up one after another. In the summer, they also had to go to work at 7 o'clock in the morning.

After washing up, I put on my backpack and walked out of the yard. There were still a few hours of cooling-off time left at the educated youth point. I had time to go around the commune today and should be able to use up the three sign-in opportunities. I'll think about going to the educated youth point tomorrow.

Walking towards the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, the cursor here is still gray.

"Xiao Jin." Xu Manman called the system in her mind.

"Yes, host."

"Can you hide the expired sign-in cursor?" I feel weird seeing that the money is not coming.

"Sure, host," the gray cursor disappeared from sight just as the words were spoken.

Comfortable.

After waiting under the locust tree for a few minutes, Liu Youguang came over in an ox cart. It was still the busy farming season, and there were only two aunts on the cart.

Each person paid 1 cent, got on the bus and found a seat.

"You are the new educated youth who arrived yesterday." The old lady opposite, who was wearing a blue homespun dress and a flowered scarf on her head, looked at them and asked.

"Yes, auntie, you are going to the commune too." Liu Hua replied with a smile.

"I saved some eggs and went to the city to see my eldest grandson."

"Oh, Auntie, you look so young, yet you already have grandchildren. Auntie, my name is Liu Hua, and I don't know what to call you yet."

Liu Yuxiang pointed at Zhang Juxiu and said, "You can just call me Aunt Yuxiang, I'm the village accountant's wife. This is your Aunt Juxiu, the village chief's wife."

.....

On the way, Xu Manman watched Liu Hua perform and soon became friends with the two aunts. Xu Manman was simply amazed.

But I am so lucky to meet the accountant's wife and the village chief's wife when I go out.

The ox cart was only slightly faster than walking, and we reached the commune in about 30 minutes.

After getting off the bus, Liu Yuxiang told us, "My daughter-in-law works at the supply and marketing cooperative. When you go over there, sign me up."

"Thank you, Aunt Yuxiang. You and Aunt Juxiu can go and do your work first." Liu Hua replied obediently.

"Okay, the bullock cart will be back at 3 o'clock. We'll meet here then. If you're late, you'll have to walk back. Don't forget."

Everyone nodded in thanks and waved goodbye to the two aunts.

After some discussion, we decided to go to the supply and marketing cooperative first. We hadn't bought much in North City before, thinking we had everything we needed. But since we were going to live and cook on our own, there were still many things we needed to buy.

After shopping, I have time to go shopping, have lunch at a state-owned restaurant, and finally go to the post office to pick up the package.

After deciding on the route, Xu Manman led everyone to the supply and marketing cooperative. Aunt Yuxiang had shown them the way on the way, and Xu Manman also had the map she had signed in at the commune yesterday, so she didn't have to worry about getting lost.
