Everyone was exhausted after work, but what about the food? We all went to the educated youth dormitory. Huo Siyuan, the educated youth site leader, said, "We have two pots at the educated youth site. Currently, the four of us—Zhang Liang, Zhang Ya, and Zhao Jing—are sharing a meal, while Wang Ru and Wang Wei share with the villagers. There are two pots here. You can eat on your own, take turns cooking, or eat together."
Lu Wanwan and Tang Xiaoxiao said, we should eat our own food. Hao Zhijie said to eat together. Fan Yao looked at Lu Wanwan and could only say, "I'll eat together too." She couldn't be so shameless as to ask to eat together. Thinking about Lu Wanwan's food, she felt very angry.
At this time, Huo Siyuan said, "There are two pots here. You can use one first and we will take turns using one."
Lu Wanwan said, "We'll use it for a few days first, and then we'll buy a pot and return it to you in a few days."
Because there was a stove where they lived, Lu Wanwan and Tang Xiaoxiao took the pot and went home. When they got home, they found that there was no firewood. Lu Wanwan had to go to the nearest aunt's house to buy some, which was also the village chief's house. After knocking on the door and explaining their purpose, the aunt directly took out the firewood. Lu Wanwan insisted on giving her fifty cents, and the aunt had no choice but to accept it.
When I told the village chief about this after I came back, he said, "That's my niece's wife. Please take good care of her. Why do you ask for money?"
The village chief's wife said, "I have to give it to you. It's not nice to push and shove. I can only take it. I'll take care of other things in the future."
The village chief thought about it and decided that he had to tell Gu Feng about this matter. It was time for her to show her ability.
If Lu Wanwan knew that so many people were trying to match them up, she would probably jump for joy. In fact, Lu Wanwan just forgot, otherwise she would have gone to the back mountain to collect firewood after work. Let's go collect some with Tang Xiaoxiao tomorrow.
After dinner, I was lying on the bed, feeling bored. I didn't know what to do, but then I heard a knock on the door. I opened the door and saw that it was Gu Lei. I thought I was seeing things, but then I realized that it was Gu Lei.
"You read that right, it's me, Gu Lei"
"Why are you here? What's wrong?"
"My brother asked me to ask you, do you have time? I want to talk to you?"
"Then why doesn't your brother come and ask himself?"
“He said it had a bad influence.”
"Okay, wait a minute and I'll go with you. I just got here and I'm not familiar with this place."
Then the two of them went out, and after a while, Gu Lei made an excuse to leave. He was still a sensible child. Neither of them spoke.
"You asked me out just to stand?"
"That Lu Zhiqing, have we met before?"
"No"
"Then you said you liked me, wanted to pursue me, and said I was yours." He spoke haltingly, and if it wasn't at night, it wouldn't have been noticeable, but his ears must have been red. It was his first time talking to a girl, and he was so nervous.
"If I tell you about our past lives, would you believe me? We were a couple in our past lives."
"Well, if you want to find someone to help you with the work, I can do that too, but please don't talk nonsense, it will be bad for your reputation."
"Do you think I was trying to trick you into doing the work?" Indeed, many educated youth were unwilling to work themselves, so they would trick other young people into helping them. However, it was clearly not their job, and as they spoke, they shed tears of grievance.
"I'm sorry, don't cry. I didn't mean to. I'm not worthy of you. If you spread this out, it will be bad for your reputation."
"Hey, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything. Do whatever you want. I'll take you home."
Then the two of them walked one after the other, silently without saying a word. Seeing Lu Wanwan come in, Gu Feng turned around and went home. He was very upset and said that women were troublesome. They couldn't be talked to or scolded, and they would cry at the slightest provocation. He didn't know what to do, so he just had to muddle through.
As soon as Gu Feng walked in, he heard Gu's mother say, "How was your date, the two of you? You didn't do anything wrong, did you? You can't do anything reckless."
"Mom, we're not on a date, we're just asking a few questions." Forget it, one or two, I can't explain myself clearly. Look at Lu Zhiqing's family, they're either rich or noble, can I be worthy of them? It's already upgraded to the question of whether they are worthy or not.
"Your aunt said Lu Zhiqing's family has no firewood. Go and deliver some tomorrow."
"Okay, I see." It's hard to explain, so let it be. The story of the firewood begins.
The next morning, Gu Feng pushed a small cart of firewood and delivered it to Lu Wanwan. Lu Wanwan had just gotten up when Gu Feng came over pushing the firewood. When she saw Gu Feng, Lu Wanwan's eyes lit up.
"What brings you here so early?"
"My mom asked me to come over and bring you some firewood. You guys use it first. I'll put it away for you."
"OK, thanks"
"Have you eaten? Here's a meat bun."
"After hearing this, Gu Feng was so scared that he turned around and ran away, without even wanting the cart." Lu Wanwan chuckled.
"Hey, so early in the morning, is there something going on?"
"You knew it the day you came here. I want to pursue him. Don't say anything nonsense."
"It seems you are not wishful thinking."
Lu Wanwan said proudly, "That is..."
The two of them went to work after arguing with each other.
When Lu Wanwan came back in the evening, she had sweet and sour pork ribs in her mouth. She packed it up and took it directly to Gu's house. She didn't even have time to eat a bite. She thought that if she delivered it too late, people would have already eaten. She also took two cans of malted milk and two cans of food. She decided to have some instant noodles or something when she came back. Anyway, she had space and wouldn't starve. She planned to send it to Gu Feng's house and thank him for the firewood he delivered in the morning. She had to deliver it quickly, otherwise it would be cold and not tasty.
I walked humming a little song all the way, and then I met the people I least wanted to see, Fan Yao and Hao Zhijie walking towards me.
"Sister Wanwan, are you bringing food to me and Brother Zhijie? Why are you bringing it now? We are already full."
"It's not for you." Lu Wanwan quickly protected her lunch box, fearing that it would be snatched away.
"Aunt Gu sent me a cart of firewood. I went to thank her. I can't give it to you."
People passing by saw the gossip and said, "I've never seen anyone so shameless. They just ask for food. Meat is so precious these days."
"Cousin, we didn't know you were giving it to someone else. We are sisters, and I thought you were giving it to me." She acted as if she had been wronged. Some men couldn't bear it and couldn't help but say, "She's a sister, so I understand why you thought it was given to me. Why not just explain it clearly? There's no need to be so unpleasant."
"You bad woman, you're just hooking up. Go home. Your son is getting married and you're still trying to save the girl. Just wait and see how I deal with you. And you, at such a young age, can't you rely on yourself? You either rely on men or sisters? Go buy yourself some meat if you can."
Fan Yao was so scared that she ran away. Lu Wanwan said, "Auntie, thank you. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to protect these foods."
"You are a good child who knows how to be grateful. Go quickly." The excitement was over, and everyone went home to rest. Lu Wanwan skipped away again.
