"Tonight we're going to stew some potatoes with this duck meat, and then have some fried wild duck eggs with leeks. What do you think?"
The food at the village chief's house is considered excellent in the village. Who among the common people would be willing to eat like this?
At least since Tang Xinyi got married, her family has to steam a pot of steamed buns every day, not to mention a lot.
In the past, all we had were steamed buns or wowotou made of three-grain flour.
There is not much difference between the two, but the proportions are different.
But since she came, it’s either pumpkin buns or vegetable buns.
Even the way steamed cornbread is prepared is much more delicious than before.
As the taste of staple food becomes better, the consumption of vegetables also becomes faster.
"Sister-in-law, do you think the salted duck eggs we pickled last night are ready to eat?"
The salted duck egg had just been pickled when Jiang Yanli started to set her sights on it.
From time to time, she glanced towards the cellar, where her mother kept salted duck eggs.
"Salted duck eggs have to wait at least half a month. Are you craving them now?"
"How about I steam an egg cake for you?"
The egg cake that Tang Xinyi mentioned is made by beating eggs into a bowl, adding a little water, chopped green onions and seasonings, then mixing well and steaming it in a pot.
People in the north call this egg cake.
If you add a little more Northeastern soybean paste, it will become egg sauce.
Anyway, Tang Xinyi can't get used to egg sauce, but she can barely eat egg cake.
"Forget it, egg cake is egg cake, and salted duck eggs are salted duck eggs!"
“They taste different!”
Jiang Yanli was just talking, she also knew that freshly pickled salted duck eggs could not be made so quickly.
Oh, wait!
When the meal was almost ready for both of them, Zheng Xiulian came back with the village chief.
"Dad and Mom, why did you two come back together?"
I originally thought that my mother would go out to chat with the sisters and come back soon, but I waited and waited but she didn't show up.
Did something happen in the village?
"Alas, it's still those educated youth!"
"I've said it before, none of those educated youth are good people. Now, two of them, a man and a woman, got caught having sex!"
"Tell me, if they want to stay together, they should just start dating and then get married properly!"
"They just happen to like these sneaky behaviors. Even though I haven't been to school for many years, I still look down on people like this!"
The village chief didn't say anything, but Tang Xinyi's mother-in-law couldn't help nagging.
It seems that he really doesn't like people with bad behavior.
"Just get married if you find out, Mom, why are you so angry?"
Jiang Yanli was a little confused. Even if the educated youth did something improper, it was their business.
The people in their village have always been very proud. For these two people to be together, they have to discuss it between the two families and be introduced by a matchmaker before they can finally get together.
Even if a young couple is engaged, they should keep a proper distance, otherwise they will easily be gossiped about.
Jiang Yanli doesn’t understand. Don’t those educated youth understand these principles?
Shouldn't they know more because they go to school?
"If that were all, I wouldn't be so angry!"
Zheng Xiulian sighed and then told everything she knew.
It turned out that there was a male educated youth named Wan Peng in the village, who had already been together with the little girl of Accountant Sun.
The two were about to get married, who knew something like this would happen suddenly?
Afterwards, the male educated youth named Wan Peng said that the female educated youth took off her clothes and raped him.
Even a fool wouldn't believe this.
Moreover, the female educated youth's companions could also prove that they were an engaged couple when they were in the city.
The female educated youth came to the countryside just to accompany Wan Peng, otherwise she would not have met the criteria for going to the countryside.
Wan Peng never refused the kindness of the female educated youth and accepted any good things she gave him.
But he pursued the daughter of the village accountant behind the back of the female educated youth.
It would have been fine if this matter hadn't become public, but now it has, and everyone in the village knows about it.
The villagers have sharp eyes. How does Wan Peng treat the female educated youth and the daughter of the village accountant?
Everyone is talking about Wan Peng, a scumbag who is always greedy while having his cake and eating it too.
The village chief was also troubled by these three people for the whole afternoon.
But how could he possibly side with the educated youth?
Finally, the male educated youth named Wan Peng was directly sent to the Public Security Bureau.
The problem of the male educated youth was solved, but the family of the female educated youth seemed to have some power, so the village chief did not touch her for the time being.
Now he is worried about what to do with this female educated youth?
"Dad, why don't you just tell that young woman that if she has any connections at home, look for them right away!"
"After all, this matter has a bad impact. If Wan Peng keeps biting her, this female educated youth will probably end up in trouble!"
"And the accountant's daughter, it's best to issue a statement as soon as possible to sever ties with Wan Peng. The clearer the better, otherwise there might be trouble later!"
For matters like this, on the one hand, it depends on the attitude of the village cadres, and on the other hand, it depends on whether the higher authorities will conduct a thorough investigation.
If the situation is not strict during this period, the village cadres can step in and the matter can be resolved through negotiations between the two sides.
But if it is during a period of severe crackdown, it is estimated that the situation will continue to ferment.
"You're right. I'll go talk to the village accountant right away!"
"As for the female educated youth, how about you run a trip for me, Xiulian?"
Jiang Xian didn't really want his wife to tell her, but he knew that his wife had many old sisters around her.
Leave this matter to my daughter-in-law. She will naturally find a way to pass the message to the ears of the female educated youth.
He really didn't want to get too involved in the affairs of the educated youth.
I just hope that the people above can recruit all these people back as soon as possible. They are not good at working, but they eat no less than the villagers.
There is only so much land, and the output is limited. There will always be someone who takes some away from them. Aren’t the villagers the ones who go hungry?
I have to say.
In this era, villagers always had an exclusionary attitude towards educated youth.
A brigade like Qingshan was considered good, as it did not deliberately make things difficult for the educated youth.
In some brigades, the educated youth simply ignored everything.
The village didn't care if the educated youth didn't work, didn't get work points, and didn't get food. Although this situation was rare, it still happened.
What's worse, some people made the educated youth do the work but withheld their work points.
I won’t mention the more disgusting things here, but in short, the more ruthless the scheme, the greater the loss the educated youth will suffer when they are able to return to the city.
The village chief went out again shortly after arriving home, and my mother-in-law also went out to talk to her younger sisters.
Only the aunt and sister-in-law were left to continue the unfinished work.
Tang Xinyi was very interested in the situation at the Youth League Home, but Jiang Xian often reminded them not to get too close to the Youth League.
So until now, she has never been to the Youth League Home.
