He Xianqiu packed up the things in the basket and saw Ji Chenzhou still standing there in a daze with a silly smile on his face. No one knew what he was thinking about.
He Xianqiu put his hand in front of his eyes and waved it, and Ji Chenzhou came back to his senses.
He Xianqiu rolled his eyes at him and said, "What are you thinking about? It's so hot, hurry up and pack your things and go back."
Ji Chenzhou blushed and said unnaturally, "I know."
Ji Chenzhou was a member of the team, and He Xianqiu followed him and took a shortcut back to the old house.
Today, the two of them studied as usual, but before studying, Ji Chenzhou made her some roasted sweet potatoes.
He Xianqiu was eating the sweet roasted sweet potatoes and was extremely happy. To be honest, compared with the ground coarse grains available nowadays, roasted sweet potatoes were simply a delicacy.
He Xianqiu sat on the stool and ate in small bites. Seeing that she was eating so happily, Ji Chenzhou's mouth corners slightly raised.
He Xianqiu ate the roasted sweet potato with one hand and took out a can of milk powder from the basket with the other hand and handed it to Ji Chenzhou.
"Chen Zhou, keep this can of milk powder for yourself."
Ji Chenzhou shook his head: "Keep it for yourself, I'm not used to drinking this."
He Xianqiu shook his head and refused: "No, I brought this specially for you, keep it and drink it, it will sweeten your mouth."
But Ji Chenzhou was still unwilling to accept it and was very firm in his attitude. He said that the milk powder was too expensive and he absolutely could not accept it.
Seeing that Ji Chenzhou was determined and unwilling to accept it, He Xianqiu could only take it back helplessly.
But as long as she leaves the milk powder here, Ji Chenzhou can drink it when the time comes.
Thinking of this, He Xianqiu felt that Ji Chenzhou’s refusal was nothing. When the time comes, she will ask Ji Chenzhou to drink milk with her, and Ji Chenzhou will definitely agree.
After He Xianqiu ate several roasted sweet potatoes, she felt full and walked around in the yard. There were a lot of things in the yard, which were purchased by Ji Chenzhou after He Xianqiu came.
It makes the originally empty old house feel homely and warm.
He Xianqiu also poetically dried the wild flowers, put them in bamboo tubes, and hung them on the table in the main hall.
It made the originally dilapidated main room brighter.
He Xianqiu took ten minutes to digest his food before starting to study with Ji Chenzhou.
The two studied for a long time, and it was not until after five o'clock that He Xianqiu put down the pen.
She stretched and said lazily, "Chen Zhou, it's getting late. I'll go back to the educated youth camp first."
Ji Chenzhou pursed his lips and nodded. To be honest, Ji Chenzhou was very reluctant to let He Xianqiu go back to the educated youth point so early, but it was getting late and there was nothing he could do no matter how reluctant he was.
Ji Chenzhou said gently: "I'll take you back."
He Xianqiu nodded, and the two left the old house.
The journey back to the educated youth point was very short. He hadn’t even seen enough of He Xianqiu before they arrived at the educated youth point. At least that’s what Ji Chenzhou thought.
After arriving at the educated youth point, He Xianqiu waved to Ji Chenzhou and turned to enter the educated youth point.
Ji Chenzhou stared at He Xianqiu blankly. Only when he saw her walk into the educated youth site did he turn around and leave.
When he left, his steps were heavy, as if they carried a heavy weight, and he felt a little depressed.
Because Ji Chenzhou thought that He Xianqiu was so outstanding and knew a lot of things. He was very happy that the person he liked was such an outstanding person.
But it also made him realize more clearly how huge the gap between him and He Xianqiu was, as if there was a chasm between them.
He could only like He Xianqiu silently and dared not show it at all because the gap between him and He Xianqiu was too big.
Ji Chenzhou also knew that he was not worthy of He Xianqiu, but he just couldn't resign himself to that. He didn't want to watch He Xianqiu be with other men, or even get married to them, and do some intimate things that only couples can do.
So he tried to do something to narrow the gap a little bit more.
Until one day he is worthy of He Xianqiu, and then he has the courage to tell He Xianqiu that he, Ji Chenzhou, likes her, He Xianqiu, but now he is penniless, and he dare not show that he likes He Xianqiu.
He is self-abased, feeling that he is not good enough and is not worthy of He Xianqiu in terms of family background or other aspects.
However, there was no man other than him around He Xianqiu, which made him feel relieved and secretly happy.
After Ji Chenzhou left the educated youth point, he did not go home, but went to other places under the cover of night.
A place that cannot be known to others.
Ever since he knew that he fell in love with He Xianqiu, he started going to the black market frequently. As for what he went to the black market for, it was self-evident.
There are only two situations in which you go to the black market.
The first is to buy things on the black market.
The second way is to sell things on the black market.
Ji Chenzhou was the second type, selling things on the black market. From time to time, he would take the wild animals he hunted to the black market to sell, and he had saved a lot of money.
But he knew it was never enough, so he went to the black market frequently.
Of course, Ji Chenzhou did more than just these, he also did some other things.
So with these, he quickly saved up a large sum of money.
After He Xianqiu returned to the educated youth site, other educated youth also came back one after another.
The kitchen was very close to the gate of the educated youth site. When they came in, they smelled a very fragrant smell, so fragrant that it made them drool.
Some educated youth couldn't help but ask: "What is this food? Why does it smell so good?"
He Xianqiu heard this and smiled and said, "I made some snacks. They taste pretty good. I left some in the kitchen for you, but I don't know if you like them."
When several educated youth heard that He Xianqiu had specially left it for them, their eyes lit up and one of them walked in and took it out.
But I was a little disappointed to see that they were just small river shrimps, as I thought they were something delicious.
He Xianqiu also saw their disappointed eyes, but he just smiled and said nothing.
Some educated youth were afraid to eat the river shrimps because of their strong fishy smell, but some thought the smell was too overpowering, so they poured some on their hands and started eating.
As a result, after taking just one bite, my eyes lit up. It was so delicious that I quickly poured a handful into my hand and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
Seeing how deliciously he was eating, the others swallowed their saliva and tried a bite as well.
They originally went to eat with a fearless look on their faces, but after eating it, they were all amazed and reached out to the plates.
Yang Shuhua saw others eating so happily and said disdainfully: "They are just some small river shrimps, and you are eating them like this. Don't you know she is humiliating you? This is what animals eat."
Seeing that Yang Shuhua couldn't help but speak, Zhao Yaling followed suit and said, "Yang Zhiqing, you misunderstood. This is also Xianqiu's intention, although it can't compare to milk powder."
Some of the educated youth who were originally eating with gusto now looked unhappy after hearing what the girls said, and they didn't know whether to eat or spit out the river shrimps in their mouths.
Zhang Zhijuan also ate it and thought it tasted very good. When she heard this, she frowned and said, "Yang Zhiqing, what are you talking about? No matter how big or small the gift is, it is He Zhiqing's gift. And Zhao Zhiqing, you know how expensive milk powder is these days. If it were you, would you be willing to spend the milk powder?"
Zhang Zhijuan glanced at everyone and said, "I think everyone would be reluctant to give it to others. Milk powder is such a precious thing that we can't even drink enough of it ourselves, so how can we bear to give it to others?"
When the others heard what the eldest sister Zhang Zhijuan said, they all spoke up.
"That's right, who would be willing to give the milk powder to others? I can't bear it anyway."
"I can't even bear to drink milk powder myself, so how can I give it to others?"
"What Zhang Zhiqing said makes sense. No matter how big or small the gift is, it is still He Zhiqing's gift. Why are you being picky? These little river shrimps are so delicious. They are meat."
Yang Shuhua and Zhao Yaling were dumbfounded by the accusations made by everyone. Shouldn't they be scolding He Xianqiu for being stingy and giving them the river shrimps that were meant to be fed to the poultry?
How could they turn against us just because of a few words from the eldest sister Zhang Zhijuan?
But thinking that Zhang Zhijuan had prestige in the educated youth point, no matter how unhappy Zhao Yaling and Yang Shuhua were, they did not dare to scold Zhang Zhijuan. They could only glare at He Xianqiu in frustration.
He Xianqiu looked at the two people who looked aggrieved but dared not say a word, and she thought it was so funny.
As expected, she only bullies the weak and fears the strong. Now that the elder sister Zhang Zhijuan has defended her, these two people dare not say a word.
Seeing that they were so unhappy but didn't dare to show it, He Xianqiu decided to add fuel to the fire.
He Xianqiu smiled and said, "Yang Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing, food is very expensive these days. Small river shrimp is also a rare delicacy. It's just that no one eats it because they don't know how to cook it. It is very nutritious and contains a lot of trace elements and protein. It is not something that only livestock can eat in your eyes."
After saying these words, He Xianqiu said with a sad face: "We also learned these in high school, but you don't seem to remember them."
When Zhao Yaling and Yang Shuhua heard He Xianqiu mocking them for having wasted more than ten years of study, they were so angry that their faces turned blue, but they didn't know how to refute He Xianqiu, so they could only glare at her fiercely.
But He Xianqiu didn't care about these murderous looks at all. They were of no use to her.
When they heard He Xianqiu say that river shrimps are good for the body and contain trace elements, the educated youth who were originally just watching the fun reached out for the river shrimps on the plate and stuffed them into their mouths.
This is good stuff, it's good for your body, you must eat more of it. Moreover, He Xianqiu made these little river shrimps fragrant and crispy, they are delicious.
Seeing that these people were reaching for the plates again after being influenced by He Xianqiu's words, Yang Shuhua's face turned dark and she ran back to the dormitory angrily.
Zhao Yaling was thicker-skinned than Yang Shuhua, but after being criticized so harshly by He Xianqiu, she could not stay there any longer and pulled Chen Changping away from the educated youth point.
Chen Changping was dragged out of the educated youth site by her, and his face looked a little unhappy.
For the first time, he regretted why he chose to be with Zhao Yaling instead of He Xianqiu who liked him.
He Xianqiu is so nice, she is beautiful and has a good family background.
Yes, Chen Changping has always known that He Xianqiu likes him, but he pretended not to know.
He enjoyed everything that He Xianqiu brought him, but he also despised and hated He Xianqiu's liking for him.
He also didn't know if He Xianqiu would be with him if he got her back now. After all, He Xianqiu liked him so much before, it's impossible for her to stop liking him so quickly, Chen Changping thought to himself.
If He Xianqiu knew what Chen Changping was thinking, he would just slap him a few times.
What kind of swan meat does he think he is? He is just a scabby guy, why is he dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Period?
Moreover, the He Xianqiu who liked him is no longer here.
