Chapter Nineteen: Delicious Potatoes



The potatoes at this stage are quite old, with wrinkled skin, but they are still very delicious, sweet, tender, and chewy.

Taking a bite, she found the taste sweet. At that moment, Song Lili felt that this was the most delicious food in the world, and of course, she would never forget this taste.

After watching Song Lili eat, Zhang Qinghua stood quietly, a smile in his eyes, watching Song Lili happily finish the not-so-large potato bite by bite.

After finishing her meal, Song Lili licked her lips as if savoring the taste, as if they were even more fragrant, and her lips were even more moist and translucent.

Zhang Qinghua glanced at it and then looked away, muttering, "What are you doing here?"

He wanted to say more, but he didn't want to get straight to the point so quickly. However, he couldn't think of anything to say, so he could only ask in frustration.

"Oh, right, I almost forgot what I was supposed to do. Let me tell you, to pursue a girl, you have to be thick-skinned, and also, you have to show her a lot of care and spend a lot of time with her!"

Song Lili began to share the experiences she had learned from others with Zhang Qinghua, because she herself did not understand them, after all, she had never been in a relationship.

Her so-called experience was nothing but hearsay and theoretical knowledge.

Zhang Qinghua listened silently without saying a word. In his opinion, just listening to Song Lili talk was a kind of comfort.

Song Lili went on and on, recounting the love stories of two people that her modern best friend had shared with her, picking out all the details.

Afterwards, he asked Zhang Qinghua, "Do you understand?"

Zhang Qinghua was completely absorbed in staring at her, not hearing a word she said, but could only force a nod and say "Mmm."

Song Lili felt she had accomplished her mission and clapped her hands. "Now that you understand, just follow this from now on. I believe you will succeed." And she had to succeed.

He turned to leave after saying that, but Zhang Qinghua stopped him. "I...I...I can't..."

"You don't know what?" Song Lili asked, puzzled. Hadn't she already taught him everything?

“I don’t know how to do it…” Zhang Qinghua meant that he didn’t know how to do these things, which Song Lili interpreted as Zhang Qinghua not knowing how to do them.

She patted Zhang Qinghua on the shoulder, then put her arm around his shoulder and said, "Then I'll help you... From now on, you can do whatever I ask you to do..."

I don't believe it, I can't handle Yangmei!

Zhang Qinghua was speechless. Why could he never understand what the man really meant?

Zhang Qinghua was distracted for a moment, and Song Lili had already walked far away. He could only shake his head, but his heart was full of doting affection, and he just wanted to play with her.

He silently apologized to his brother and then resolved to resolutely carry out Song Lili's orders the next day.

They were just unlucky. Except for the first day, none of them got together. No, it should be said that Song Lili and Zhang Qinghua didn't get together, while Li Qinghua and Yang Mei were still inseparable.

By the time they had time to put them together again, it was already time to hand over the grain to the commune and distribute it.

The grain distribution still took place at the stage. It was a large place, and the warehouse was also located there. Every household carried a bag, and everyone had a smile on their face.

Song Lili was no exception. She felt that this period of time had been too difficult. Without food, she felt that her stomach was about to give out.

Wild vegetables may be a popular food for modern people, or they may enjoy eating something new. However, if they are eaten every day, they will only taste bitter, no matter how they are prepared.

The Song family was alright. Song Lili added a few more steps to remove the bitterness of the wild vegetables as much as possible. Even so, she didn't want to eat wild vegetables anymore.

All five teams gathered here, and accountant Xu Youcai was already sitting behind a table with an account book in front of him, recording the work points.

The distribution of grain was based on work points; more work points meant more grain, and fewer work points meant less grain.

Village Party Secretary Li Weiguo and village director and brigade leader Luo Weijia were also present. Grain distribution was a major event, and these people all had to oversee it.

Xu Youcai would call out to whichever house he was calling, and that house would go to collect the grain, and then move on to the next house.

Start with the first group and divide them down from the head of the line according to their living positions.

Those who received their share of grain were all smiles. Looking at the sacks of wheat, they felt much more at ease, and genuine smiles appeared on their faces.

Although not many farmers are literate, they can count. As long as the work points recorded by the accountant are consistent with their own memory, they can quickly receive their share of grain.

The large batch was quickly distributed, and those who were faster had already had it delivered to their homes. Some even started cooking over a fire.

Song Lili also saw Zhang Qinghua and Li Qinghua, but she was preoccupied with distributing the grain, so she didn't greet them, only giving them a smile.

When they arrived at the Fifth Brigade, there weren't many people left at the stage, but they didn't feel desolate at all; on the contrary, their hearts were filled with warmth.
