The arrival of the winter solstice means that the new year is not far away.
Lu Weimin asked her to calculate the work points for each household, as the grain should be distributed.
On the mountain, Lu Chen was also tasked with setting up traps to see if they could catch a wild boar. After killing it, each family would receive a portion to make dumplings.
The pigs raised by the brigade will not be slaughtered until the end of the year.
Ye Zhiyu went to see it. The shack was very thick, and the animals were neither fat nor thin, maintaining a consistent standard. After killing them, a portion was given to the government, and each family wouldn't actually get much of the rest, but it was still meat.
"Come one at a time, don't rush or grab, they're yours and no one can take them away."
Lu Weimin stood to one side and shouted loudly to maintain order.
"Aunt Guihua's house."
"Sister-in-law." A young man whom Ye Zhiyu had never seen before came up.
She was completely bewildered by the way she was addressed. "What did you call me?"
Lu Chen, who was weighing the grain, saw this and kicked him.
Lu Hongwei tried to dodge, but the road was too slippery, he lost his footing and fell on his backside.
"Brother Lu, are you trying to murder me?" He lay on the ground, refusing to get up, waiting for Lu Chen to help him up.
"Stop pretending, get up." He made a move to kick him again.
Lu Hongwei moved very quickly, "Sigh, it's always like this, you break my heart completely."
Lu Chen ignored him: "This is Lu Hongwei, Aunt Guihua's son. He doesn't want to get married and is away from home most of the year."
Lu Hongwei scratched his head and chuckled, "Hello, sister-in-law."
"Hello."
He quickly carried the grain away.
Each household left one person to guard the distributed grain, while the rest of the people who could move it came out to move it.
"Alright, alright, it's not a big deal, just give it to me."
An elderly woman held the hand of a young man who was scooping grain out of a bag, asking him to put it back inside.
The grain was weighed out sack by sack a few days ago. Today we're just weighing it again so they can all watch, in case they say it's wrong when we get home.
If there's too much, you have to pour it out; that's what many places say, trying to get a bargain.
"Auntie, that's not how you put it. You give a little, he gives a little, and the brigade has lost so much grain. If I give you some, will I not give the next one?"
The young man remained unmoved. The old woman wanted to say something, but Lu Chen took a step forward, and she reluctantly shut up.
In the village, everyone comes and goes all day, their faces beaming with smiles.
After a busy day, Ye Zhiyu's back and waist ached.
Lu Weimin also called several young men who had been conscripted to go home.
Everyone was getting ready to wrap up and leave. Ye Zhiyu patted her shoulder, and Lu Chen wanted to massage her shoulders, but stopped when Granny Feng called out to him.
"Wait, something's not right, the food isn't right."
Many people who were carrying grain stopped when they heard this.
Lu Weimin really got a headache just looking at her. "Old woman Feng, what are you making a fuss about now? What's wrong with your grain? Didn't I tell you to check it carefully when you take it away? Once you're out of the brigade headquarters, I'll accept it?"
Granny Feng raised her head and said, "Of course I know. What I'm saying is that there's still one person whose grain hasn't been distributed. Team leader, did you embezzle it yourself, or did someone else take it?"
At the end, he gave Ye Zhiyu a suggestive glance.
Lu Weimin looked completely bewildered: "Old woman Feng, what's wrong with you? I didn't distribute grain to anyone, so who did I embezzle grain from?"
"Xu Fen, the educated youth, has been arrested and imprisoned. Shouldn't we get a share of her grain?"
ha?
Everyone present was stunned by what she said.
"Old woman Feng, you really are the type who won't die if you don't take advantage of others. Let me tell you, don't even think about Xu Zhiqing's grain. It's going to be given to Ye Zhiqing as compensation."
"Compensate her? Why should we compensate her? Just because she's Lu Chen's girlfriend, are you taking her side?"
"I didn't even know I borrowed money from someone, and now I have to tell you?"
"Borrow money?"
“I lent Xu Fen 10 yuan and gave her some grain. Now that she’s in jail, she should use the grain to pay for it. Since you want this grain, then pay me 10 yuan. I don’t need that much anyway.”
Upon hearing that money was required, Granny Feng started yelling and screaming like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on.
"Money? Where's the money? Are you crazy for money?"
"Then why are you barking like a dog? I originally wanted to confiscate it, but now I've changed my mind, Lu Chen. In a little while, take my share."
Lu Chen nodded and went to tidy up.
If she hadn't mentioned it, Ye Zhiyu hadn't intended to eat it anyway, and since one person couldn't finish it all, she figured she might as well just confiscate it and put it in the granary of the Red Flag Brigade.
In the end, if a famine occurs, and the granaries are opened to distribute food, it will end up being distributed to the villagers.
Having considered this reasoning, she looked at Granny Feng with utter disgust and slunk away.
"That old woman Feng, her husband Daqiang's leg just healed and she's already causing trouble again. Doesn't she fear retribution?"
"Who knew, I get itchy all over if I don't stir up trouble for a day."
Ye Zhiyu was both annoyed and amused.
What's infuriating is that she's constantly being watched; it's so annoying.
What's funny is that I really don't know where she gets so much energy in a day, even though she's not young anymore, she's still so energetic.
"Ouch, my shoulder hurts so much."
Back at the educated youth settlement, Ye Zhiyu felt that she couldn't straighten her shoulders; they hurt with the slightest movement.
Two hands were placed on her shoulders, gently yet firmly massaging her.
"Hiss~"
Lu Chen lowered his voice: "Does it hurt a lot? I'll be gentler."
"No, no need. It's painful yet pleasurable, a bit tangy, you can continue."
His stiff shoulders and sluggish blood flowed slowly as Lu Chen moved.
"Mmm~ That feels good."
Ye Zhiyu couldn't help but groan.
The massaging hand paused for a moment, then resumed, as if nothing was amiss.
But as those large hands slowly moved across her back, the massage gradually took a turn for the worse. Ye Zhiyu noticed something was wrong, but then thought she was just overthinking it.
Suddenly, her slender waist was grasped, her body trembled, and she subconsciously reached out to grab those large hands.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Chen approached from behind, his magnetic voice ringing in my ear with an echo.
"Stop fooling around."
"Making a scene? Is that so?"
Lu Chen drooled over the lustrous earlobes in front of him.
"Mmm~ Ah Chen, no..."
A warm, wet touch enveloped her earlobe, sucking and nibbling it repeatedly. The man's breath sprayed into her ear canal, and his heavy panting surrounded her.
His waist and abdomen were bound, and pressure came from behind, causing him to sink into the bedding with his force.
Because she was lying face down, her pert little bottom was pressing against him.
Before falling into the sea of love, Ye Zhiyu vaguely thought that she shouldn't have taken off the thick layers of clothing she was wearing when she came in, and now she was easily letting others do whatever they wanted.
Intertwined necks, one by one, red plum blossoms quietly bloom.
As their skin touched, the friction generated heat, and Ye Zhiyu could clearly feel the muscle texture on his body.
A little white rabbit was relentlessly pursued by a big gray wolf.
"Ayu, help me."
She heard Lu Chen's pleading voice in her ear, and he led her hand downwards without any room for argument.
