Xiao Baiyu whispered a warning, feeling foolish at her untimely arrogance.
What's the situation now? She keeps talking about buying it with money. Does she really think this is a place where her Qi family lives? Has she forgotten what her family told her before she went to the countryside?
Qi Youyou was unwilling to shut up, but couldn't help rolling her eyes. "A bunch of people who only care about appearances," she said, secretly glaring at Wei Ci, muttering to herself, "Why would a country girl be so pretty? How could a city girl like her, who was raised in a world of luxury, not be able to compare to her?"
"What are you going to exchange for?"
Wei Ci didn't refuse directly, she wanted to test their sincerity. If they were just asking for money...
Thinking of this, Wei Ci held the broom tightly in his left hand behind his back, ready to swing it away if he disagreed.
A few people thought she agreed, and they were overjoyed and quickly handed over the things in their hands.
"Will these be okay?"
Wei Ci lowered her eyes and looked over. There were toffees, fruit candies, canned fruits, chocolates, and one of them even had a piece of cotton cloth.
"Okay, wait."
Normally, Wei Ci was not an unreasonable person. She calmly threw away the broom in her hand, smiled politely at the few people, and quickly returned to the house to discuss with her brother.
"Is she really from the countryside? She doesn't look like one."
Most of the country people I saw these days were pale and thin, with dark skin. The whitest one was bronze. I have never seen anyone so white, not to mention that she is so beautiful. She can be called beautiful.
"Hmph! What's the point of being beautiful? You're still a peasant. You can only marry a country man who works hard in the fields."
Zhu Zhu rolled her eyes. She looked down on this idiot who kept showing off his family background every other sentence.
"Have you forgotten that your household registration has been transferred to the countryside? You are also a peasant now!"
Qi Youyou's eyes widened when she heard that, and without thinking, she replied, "Who said that? My dad said, I just came... Ugh!"
With her mouth blocked, Qi Youyou turned back angrily, and when she met Xiao Baiyu's warning eyes, she immediately quieted down and said no more.
The expressions of the others varied, and they had their own guesses about what she hadn't finished saying. Some were envious, and quite a few were jealous.
Some people are born in Rome and enjoy wealth that others can never imagine in their lifetime.
Seeing the change in other people's expressions, Xiao Baiyu cursed him inwardly as an idiot, and then pretended to educate Qi Youyou, but in fact he was very annoyed.
The Qi family is also a political family, with four generations of family members working in the government. How did a litter of foxes raise such a stupid dog? Even if she looks like a fox, it can't change her stupid nature.
"Don't forget that we went to the countryside to support rural construction and receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants. Change those bad habits of yours!"
Qi Youyou lowered her head and curled her lips. These were all big words again. Of course she knew why she came here. If one person from each family had to go to the countryside and everyone in her family except her had a job, she would not have come here.
Wei Ci returned to the door again with the meat. She could see at a glance that something was wrong between them. It seemed that they were starting to form their own little group.
But it has nothing to do with her.
"That's all. If you want it, take it. If not, forget it."
A piece of lean meat weighing about two pounds appeared in front of them, making their eyes light up. The awkward atmosphere instantly dissipated. Xiao Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wei Ci with gratitude and appreciation.
Wei Ci was puzzled and ignored his affectionate eyes as he looked at the dog, and handed the meat directly to Zhu Zhu.
Before anyone else could say anything, Zhu Zhu was very quick and snatched the things from other people's hands and stuffed them into Wei Ci's arms. Before anyone could react, she took the roe deer meat, waved to Wei Ci, and smiled brightly.
"Thank you! I haven't eaten roe deer meat yet. Thanks to you today, I have the opportunity to try it."
The others were stunned, holding their hands up, staring blankly at their empty hands, and then looking at the two girls who had already started to say goodbye at the door.
They opened their mouths to say something when the wooden door was closed in front of them again. Their words were stuck in their throats. As they heard the brisk footsteps walking away, angry eyes fell on Zhu Zhu, who was holding up her hands and smiling foolishly.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you give away all our things?!"
Zhu Zhu put away her silly smile and turned serious for a second.
"You came here just to exchange something for roe deer meat, didn't you?"
Everyone nodded hesitantly, saying that this was correct.
"Then what is this?" Zhu Zhu raised the roe deer meat in her hand and waved it at everyone.
"Roe deer meat?"
Zhu Zhu nodded. "Isn't it already exchanged? I've got the meat and given the things to the owner. What's the matter? Are you reluctant to part with your things? Do you still want to take it for free? Meat is so valuable! Some people want to eat it but can't! If you don't want to, just tell me and I'll give it back to them."
She even felt that the little girl was at a loss for just that little bit of stuff.
Everyone hesitated again, and seeing that Zhu Zhu was about to turn around and return the meat, they hurriedly stopped her.
What a joke! Snacks are always available as long as they have enough money and tickets. But the same cannot be said for meat, which is a scarce commodity that cannot be purchased even with money and tickets.
After a struggle, Xiao Baiyu understood what was going on. Lu Da remained silent, not understanding Qi Youyou's confusion and scratching her head. It made sense, but she felt something was wrong.
"What are you still standing there for? Didn't you say we were going to have a dinner together? Why aren't you leaving?"
If I don’t go back to cook, what should I do if my fellow villagers lock the door and I can’t go back home when it’s too late?
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhu couldn't help but mutter, everything here is good, except for one thing: there is no educated youth site, and there are too many conflicts living in the homes of fellow villagers.
"Why……!"
Qi Youyou, who heard the most, wanted to speak again, but Zhu Zhu was startled and ran away as fast as she could, fearing that she would react and make a fuss, leaving Qi Youyou standing there with a confused look on her face.
She just wanted to ask, how to eat roe deer meat, why did she run so fast?
"Why are there so many things?"
Wei Qingfeng was stunned. Two pounds of meat in exchange for so many things?
Wei Ci happily gave each person a candy. She didn't think it was too much. Meat was so expensive, although she had never lacked meat.
Ever since Wei Ci came here, the family has never been short of meat. No one knows where her second brother gets it from: rabbit today, chicken tomorrow, pork the day after tomorrow, and beef the day after that. Even Wei Jixiang, who's not even a year old yet, is bulging with food.
"These educated youth are indeed very valuable."
The rumor had already spread in the village that the educated youth who came here were richer than each other, and they would give out milk candies, glutinous rice sticks, and egg cakes as soon as they opened their mouths.
The families whose homes were occupied by educated youth complained every day that the educated youth disdained to eat coarse grains and wild vegetables, and that they had no fine grains or vegetables at home, so the educated youths took out their own grains to eat, and the children at home were so greedy that they made a fuss at every meal.
