In the evening, everyone sat in the courtyard chatting, talking about their ideals and ambitions, and about their uncertain future.
Luo Song and several other educated youths from Kyoto spent three days working in the fields.
The initial passion and enthusiasm I had when I went to the countryside have largely faded.
Listening to the worries of the former educated youth, each of them wore a somber expression.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Su Qingci secretly ran out by herself.
The moon hung high in the treetops, and the path was faintly visible.
On the hillside behind the educated youth settlement, a little girl with two braids was puffing out her cheeks, looking like a little hamster stealing food.
While munching on a duck neck, Su Qingci pondered how she could move out and live alone.
This sweet potato rice and wild vegetables is fine for a few meals, but who could stand eating it every day?
My own farm has plenty of grain and meat.
But with such a large group of people watching, she couldn't just suggest cooking a chicken for no reason.
If we want to eat something ready-made, we have to hide on this hillside. Sigh, when will this ever end?
At this time, China was still undergoing a long period of postwar reconstruction and blockade by Western countries.
The country is also suffering enormous internal wounds; it can be said that the country is experiencing a predicament of internal and external troubles at this time.
The living standards of the people were also very backward.
The situation is even worse in remote and underdeveloped villages like Gaotang Village.
Most people are still struggling to make ends meet and stay warm.
"Slap!" Su Qingci slapped her right cheek.
Soon I felt a soft foreign object in my hand.
I touched my cheek with my finger, and sure enough, there was a small bump on my smooth skin.
She knew it was a mosquito bite.
My already low mood was further tinged with a sense of helplessness.
The spring morning was still a bit damp, and Su Qingci led her water buffalo, yawning as she walked.
I wonder if there's anything easier than herding cattle in this team?
Although herding cattle is just following the cattle, it still requires leaving early and returning late.
I used to sleep until the sun was high in the sky before I could get up.
She's really not used to this kind of life where she has to get up at five or six in the morning.
"The vines of the commune connect every household; together we work to grow crops!"
"@￥？～》#&......Great Development of Collective Economy~"
A melodious song drifted from afar.
Su Qingci stood on the slope, watching the commune members busily working in the fields below.
Wearing a straw hat and with his sleeves rolled up.
It must be said that although life was tough and living conditions were poor at this time, the happiness index was probably the highest.
Everyone is easily satisfied, and the smiles on their faces are genuine.
No mortgage, no car loan.
Most importantly, we're all equally poor!
Leading the cow around to the back of the hillside, seeing it obediently grazing on the grass, Su Qingci threw down the rope and plopped down on the grass.
Sensing the farm's presence with his mind, he instinctively cried out, "Go in."
Whoosh~
Su Qingci felt the world blur, and then she found herself in her familiar villa.
The large countdown clock was still on the TV in the living room.
0 hours 59 minutes 55 seconds.
0 hours 59 minutes 54 seconds.
0 hours 59 minutes 53 seconds.
"I've come in again?"
"Why couldn't we get in yesterday, but we can get in today?"
Su Qingci stared at the countdown on the TV with a puzzled expression. She felt that this matter was somehow connected to the countdown clock.
"Never mind that for now!"
She was afraid that she would be prevented from entering again at any time.
I rushed to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out all the vegetables inside.
Then he quickly ran to the farm and caught two chickens, a duck, and two fish.
She plans to make an extra cooked meal for herself and store it in her space so she can take it out and eat it whenever she wants.
After only a few meals of sweet potato rice, she already misses meat.
After putting rice in the rice cooker, Su Qingci devoted herself wholeheartedly to her cooking business.
Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.
A person can go without meat for one meal, but not two.
Two fish, one braised and one steamed.
A whole chicken was chopped up and placed in a special soup pot, along with other ingredients, and then stewed.
The original owner's body is far inferior to the one she was cremated in.
It's made it so she can't fight properly; she needs to take some time to recover.
The other chicken was stir-fried. This chicken weighed four or five pounds. With green peppers and other side dishes, a big pot of it was cooked.
I thought the villa might have a timer function for preserving food.
She went straight to the farm's supermarket, carried a box of disposable packaging boxes, and packed them into individual boxes.
The rice cooker has finished cooking and tripped, beeping a warning sound.
The chicken soup in the electric slow cooker was bubbling away, and a fragrant aroma wafted out from the vent.
Su Qingci laboriously raised her arm and deftly chopped the duck in her hand.
She plans to make beer-braised duck, so she blanched the duck and washed it clean.
Then stir-fry with spices, and finally pour in a large can of beer to simmer slowly.
While I was at it, I took all the food that had been packed in boxes from the kitchen and brought it to the living room.
Just then, Su Qingci stared at the large countdown clock on the TV and suddenly froze.
She suddenly had a bad feeling.
0 hours 0 minutes 37 seconds
0 hours 0 minutes 36 seconds
Bang bang bang bang~
The sound of my heartbeat was unusually clear at that moment.
The next second, she rushed into the kitchen, turned off the gas stove, and then ran to the living room to stare at the countdown clock on the TV.
0 hours 0 minutes 5 seconds
0 hours 0 minutes 4 seconds
...
0 hours 0 minutes 0 seconds
Bang~
"Wow!"
Sure enough, just as the countdown clock showed 0:00:00, the clock struck midnight.
Su Qingci felt herself being thrown away by a tremendous force once again.
It felt exactly the same as when I was kicked out last time.
In a flash, she was lying on the grass behind the Gaotang Brigade in a pose resembling Chang'e flying to the moon.
"I see?"
"I think I've figured it out."
"So it was a problem with that countdown clock!"
"So I can only spend one hour a day on the farm?"
"The countdown starts as soon as you enter, and then you're forcibly thrown out of the farm when the time is up?"
"Phew~" Su Qingci breathed a sigh of relief. This result was much better than she had expected.
But she has used up her time for today and can't get in.
We'll have to figure out the exact rules of the farm gradually.
At least today's harvest was quite good.
Su Qingci smiled with her eyes narrowed, looking up to find her cow.
Then the smile slowly disappeared from his face.
Baka~
Where is my cow?
