Aunt Guo was also a little embarrassed, and quickly took the remaining pancakes back, afraid that these people would eat too much.
However, once she stepped outside, she saw Guo Dayou standing there and gave him a pancake to take back and eat.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect there would be leftover pancakes this time." Guo Dayou said in surprise, "Why didn't you keep them for yourselves? Why are you giving them to me?"
"I have to thank you for going with my old man to pick them up. You went to all that trouble, so I can't just leave you with nothing. These days, nothing is more precious than food, so this is all I can give you," said Aunt Guo.
Guo Dayou said somewhat embarrassedly, "This is something I should do."
Aunt Guo immediately took the remaining two grains into the kitchen and put them away. This was the best food available, and since these people were unwilling to accept her kindness, why should she bother being a good person?
The people were very unhappy that their food was taken away, and thus Lu Qingyan successfully offended those who came with her.
"Alright, you've eaten enough. Let me show you which family you'll be assigned to share meals with." After listening to these people talk, Captain Guo had basically figured them out.
"Isn't there a designated area for educated youth here?" Before coming, Liu Yi had inquired and learned that each production team should have a designated area for educated youth, and all the educated youth should live and eat together. But from what the brigade leader was saying, it seemed that the educated youth would have to live and eat separately.
Captain Guo smiled shyly: "Hehe, our brigade is small and has few houses. We can't find any spare rooms, so we can only ask you to stay with the villagers."
Captain Guo thought to himself, he wasn't stupid. Many of these educated youths from outside were troublemakers. They came to his territory and still wanted to make revolution, conduct criticism and struggle sessions, and delay agricultural production. Letting these troublemakers gather together would only cause him trouble. It would be better to separate them into families.
The village is full of his people. If anyone tries to cause trouble in his territory, he'll be the first to know and can nip the time bomb in the bud.
Lu Qingyan thought this was a good idea, and asked Aunt Guo directly, "Auntie, this is our first time here, and we don't know anyone here. Do we have to choose a family ourselves, or will the team leader arrange it? If we choose ourselves, could you tell us about the people and things in this village?"
Captain Guo said from the side, "Of course I will assign you families, but I will still tell you the specific situation of each family. If you are really not satisfied, you can change to another family, but the family must not have any other educated youths."
Aunt Guo suddenly said, "Widow Ma told me before that if any female educated youth come this time, she wants me to arrange one for her family. Her daughter is already married, and she's all alone, which is quite lonely. She wants to find a companion to eat with, chat with, and relieve her boredom. Which of your two daughters would like to go?"
Aunt Guo looked at Liu Yi and Lu Qingyan, her eyes darting between them.
Liu Yi had a sweet tongue, and even though they had only spent a short time together, Aunt Guo had already taken a liking to her. This was an opportunity that Aunt Guo had secured for Liu Yi. After all, Widow Ma's husband had prepared many nice things for her in the past, and besides what her daughter had taken away, there were definitely many more.
Although Aunt Guo's words were quite good, it was unexpected whether Liu Yi would be willing to accept her kindness.
