Chapter 27



As Bai Ruozhen finished speaking, Feng Qiujuan and Zhu Guixia glanced at each other and nodded. "That's right. We're all very thin and don't take up much space. But Zhenzhen is young, and we don't want to be separated from her."

This is a bit difficult. If the three people are divided into two rooms, they can barely live together, but if they are squeezed into one room, it will be a bit crowded. And if the three people are moved out, won't Zhao Lai Di live in a room alone?

No, it's such a waste of resources.

Bai Ruozhen sighed, "Alas, I really want to get along peacefully with Sister Lai Di, but the facts prove that Sister Lai Di and we just don't get along. We can't force it."

Seeing them talking about moving out, Zhao Lai Di snorted, "Move out quickly." She would feel more comfortable living alone.

Unfortunately, while her plan was a good one, others didn't agree. Wang Jun said, "Captain, how about this? Let's carry on the spirit and move into this room, and let Lai Di move into ours. That way, we can still have the old educated youth to look after her."

Li Aihong thought about it and felt it was feasible, so she said to Zhao Laidi, "Zhao Laidi, then you can move into our room."

Zhao Laidie pouted and didn't say whether to move or not.

"Maybe Sister Lai Di can't bear to part with me. After all, I'm so likable." Bai Ruozhen glanced at Zhao Lai Di and said dimly, "Isn't it Sister Lai Di?"

Zhao Lai Di was disgusted by her and quickly said, "I do." She was still reluctant to leave Bai Ruozhen, but forget it. The person she hated the most was Bai Ruozhen. He was obviously the same person as her, but he could fool everyone around. He was so shameless.

But it’s better to move out, so as to avoid getting tired of Bai Ruozhen every day.

However, although Wang Jun and Li Aihong were happy to move into their house, the other three people were a little unhappy. After all, everyone had seen Zhao Lai Di's behavior in the past few days, which was really outrageous. They were all afraid that Zhao Lai Di would be like a troublemaker and mess up their house as well.

Seeing this, Li Aihong pulled the other three people aside and persuaded them until they agreed.

One of the old educated youth said to Zhao Lai Di, "Zhao Lai Di, let me tell you, if you dare to cause trouble in our room, the three of us will throw you out."

Zhao Lai Di shrank her neck and said aggrievedly, "I'm quite honest. They forced me into this."

"No matter if you are forced or not, just be honest. Otherwise, I am not as easy to talk to as Bai Ruozhen. I will report you to the team leader. If the team leader doesn't care, I will push you to the commune." The educated youth threatened.

Zhao Lai Di was frightened by her and wanted to say that she didn't want to move. However, before she could say that, Li Aihong and others didn't give her any room to refuse. They and Wang Jun quickly helped Zhao Lai Di pack her luggage.

After a while, Li Aihong and Wang Jun brought their bedding and luggage over. Wang Jun sat on the kang and said with a smile, "Oh, finally I don't have to share a room with them anymore. Let them fight on their own."

Bai Ruozhen glanced at her when he heard that. It seemed that the educated youth center beneath the calm surface was not so peaceful. It was true that where there are women, there is war.

But she liked Wang Jun and Li Aihong very much. It was much more comfortable to live in the same room with them than with Zhao Lai Di.

Bai Ruozhen took the medicine and fell asleep in the evening. Feng Qiujuan got up in the middle of the night to add firewood, and the kang remained warm all night.

As for Gu Changqing, he didn't know whether it was because of his mother's teasing or what, but he dreamed of Bai Ruozhen again that night. In the dream, Bai Ruozhen pouted and asked him, "Gu Changqing, are you willing to elope with me?"

Hold!

With just these words, Gu Changqing suddenly sat up from the kang.

Where's the Empress? Return her to me!

If she looked better, she would really be the queen, but at best she is just a little girl.

After having such a dream, Gu Changqing couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply put on his clothes and went into the supermarket while muttering something to himself.

The lights in the supermarket were still bright. Gu Changqing looked at the bright lights and wanted to climb up and unscrew them to install in his own house.

Well, he knows the world of the poor too well. He wants everything he sees on the shelves.

Unfortunately, his money was limited, only enough to buy a few buns. He had never heard of the chocolates and egg yolk pies on the shelves, let alone eaten them. He wanted to buy some to try, but each one cost several yuan, so he really couldn't bear to spend it.

Gu Changqing had nothing to do these past two days so he came in to wander around. Fortunately, no one cared about him, otherwise he would have been kicked out if he had just looked without buying anything.

No, no, I have to go out and get some money.

As soon as the sun rose, Gu Changqing started rummaging around the house. Qiu Lanying looked at him and said, "What are you rummaging around for? We don't have many scallops left at home. Don't waste them on me."

People living by the sea can't afford meat, so they eat seafood. Before winter comes, they dry some scallops, shrimps and other seafood. They are delicious when stewed with vegetables in winter.

Gu Changqing said, "Aren't we going to the Northeast in a couple of days? I plan to bring some kelp with me and see if I can exchange it for some ginseng, deer antlers, or something like that."

"Can it work?" Qiu Lanying whispered, "Ginseng and deer antlers are so expensive, while kelp is so cheap."

Gu Changqing said smugly, "You don't understand, don't you? In the middle of winter in Northeast China, the temperature is dozens of degrees below zero. What do we lack the most? Vegetables. But we can't always eat radishes and cabbages in the middle of winter. For example, our kelp is worthless here, but it's a delicacy outside."

"Really?" Qiu Lanying originally thought that her fifth child was thinking about going out to cause trouble after only two days of school, but after hearing what he said, it seemed to be true.

Gu Changqing raised his eyebrows, "How could I lie to you? Mom, let me tell you, my uncle and I have agreed to get some seafood over, and we will go to the countryside and mountains to exchange them. They have no shortage of ginseng and deer antlers there, but they are short of these things." He thought happily that when she had money, she would buy some delicious food from the supermarket to try, and it would be best if she could eat a little of everything.
