Su Ruoli also put down the bag of food on her back and said, "I'm fine. I've been working all the time, so I'm quite strong."
After a short rest, Su Ruoli picked up the bag again and said, "Let's go. We have to go to the Youth Hostel soon."
"Okay, what are we going to do at the Youth League Home?" Zhang Sitong resigned herself to her fate and carried her food on her back, asking as she walked forward.
I really don’t know how this child grew up like this. How come she doesn’t understand the ways of the world at all? I can only explain it to her.
"We just arrived. Although we don't live in the Youth House, we should still go and say hello. They will notify us if anything happens in the future. Let's go! Let's go back quickly."
"Oh, all right!"
When they arrived at the yard, Zhang Sitong was so tired that she couldn't say a word. She sat on her luggage for a long time before she felt better.
Su Ruoli had already opened the doors of several rooms, and a cloud of dust blew in her face.
The team leader's son and daughter-in-law also came over and knocked on the door. "Hello, you are the new educated youth, right? My father-in-law asked us to come and help clean up."
Su Ruoli quickly welcomed them in. "Thank you so much for troubling me! You even brought tools with you. I was just worried about not having any."
Su Ruoli introduced herself and Zhang Sitong, "I'm Su Ruoli, and this is Zhang Sitong."
"Hello, Su Zhiqing, Zhang Zhiqing."
Zhang Sitong said, "Oh! Why call her educated youth? Just call me Sitong and call her Ruoli."
The person knocking on the door said, "Okay!" and pulled the man standing behind him over. "My name is Zheng Xiuying, this is my husband, Liu Jinyu. The person next to me is my sister-in-law, Wang Yuyun, and the one behind her is her husband, Liu Jintang."
"Then let's call you Sister Xiuying, Sister Yuyun, Brother Jinyu and Brother Jintang." Su Ruoli said. By calling them that, they instantly felt that their relationship had become closer.
Zheng Xiuying said, "Okay, let's start cleaning up now. My sister-in-law is pregnant, so let her do the light work and we'll do the heavy work."
Zhang Sitong exclaimed! "Sister Yuyun is pregnant, so don't do it anymore. Just wait by the side and don't get hurt."
Wang Yuyun smiled and said, "It's not that expensive. I often work at home. It won't be a problem. There are many of us, so we will be done in no time."
Even though Wang Yuyun was pregnant, she worked very efficiently. Zheng Xiuying worked slowly but carefully, cleaning every corner.
There was no furniture in the house, so it was quick to clean. In a short while, they had cleaned up all the rooms. Liu Jinyu and Liu Jintang also cleared the weeds in the yard. They also helped them check the roof, kitchen chimney and other things that needed to be checked, and repaired whatever needed to be repaired.
After helping them clean the well in the yard, Liu Jinyu said, "The house you two rented is really the right choice. There is a well in the yard, so it will be convenient for you to use water in the future. You don't have to go to the well in the village to fetch water."
Su Ruoli said gratefully: "We have to thank Uncle Guofeng for this. It was he who recommended it to us, so we were able to rent such a good house."
Liu Jinyu said, "Oh! My dad is heartbroken to see the house falling apart day by day."
Wang Yuyun said, "Okay, we've finished cleaning up, and it's time to stop working in the fields. We still have to go back and cook, so I'll leave first."
Su Ruoli watched as several people were about to leave and quickly said, "Wait a minute, sisters-in-law. We haven't paid you yet. I'll go get the money later."
Zheng Xiuying continued, "Hey! You kid, why are you still paying me wages? Didn't you give me meat buns? My daughter ate them so deliciously."
Liu Jinyu and Liu Jintang also continued, "That's right, no need to pay. It's just a short period of time, why would we ask for wages?"
"Okay, it's okay not to pay you, just wait a moment." Su Ruoli said and ran into the house, and Zhang Sitong quickly followed and ran into the room.
Su Ruoli wrapped up the remaining buns, and while looking for something in the package, she took out a bag of brown sugar from the space.
Zhang Sitong looked at her package and said, "Ruoli, I only have egg cake and hot sauce. Can I just give her the egg cake? Sister Yuyun is pregnant and probably can't eat spicy food."
"Okay, you have such a big bag of egg cakes, that's enough."
The two came out of the house and stuffed the things into Wang Yuyun's arms. "Sister-in-law, you have been busy for so long and haven't even had a sip of water, and you don't even want to be paid. You must keep these things."
Wang Yuyun refused to take it, and Zheng Xiuying helped push it back, "Hey, kid, why are you being so polite? Take the things back quickly."
Su Ruoli quickly said, "Sister Xiuying, take it quickly and stop pushing it around. Sister Yuyun is still pregnant, don't get in the way."
Zhang Sitong also said, "Exactly. Hurry up and put it away. Sister Yuyun and the child need nutrition. And there's also egg cake. Don't you have a daughter at home? Go back and give it to the child to sweeten her mouth."
Su Ruoli also said: "We two just arrived, and we will need you sisters-in-law in the future. If you don't want us, we won't dare to trouble you again in the future."
"You kids, you just arrived and you have nothing, yet you give away something so precious. We'll take it this time, but don't do this again in the future." Unable to refuse, Zheng Xiuying had to take it.
"Now that we've packed up, how are you two going to live today? There's not a single piece of furniture." Wang Yuyun asked.
Su Ruoli also found that she couldn't sleep tonight, so she asked, "Yes, Sister Yuyun, do you know where to buy furniture? Let's go buy some furniture."
"Let me tell you, if you walk past here and see a big willow tree, there will be a family living there. The furniture they make is sturdy, beautiful, and cheap," said Zheng Xiuying.
"Okay, thank you Sister Xiuying. We'll go buy furniture now."
"You two should hurry up and go. If someone else buys the furniture you've saved up, you'll just have to wait."
"Then we have to hurry." Su Ruoli ran back to the room, took out a lock from the space, locked the door, said hello to Zheng Xiuying and the others, and ran towards the big willow tree.
I knocked on the door and an old lady opened it. "Girls, who are you looking for?"
Su Ruoli said, "Hello, grandma! We are the new educated youth who arrived today. We rented a house by ourselves and have no furniture. We came here to buy some furniture."
"Buying furniture? Then come in." After saying that, he opened the door. Su Ruoli and Zhang Sitong entered the yard and saw a lot of furniture placed there.
There was a man in the yard holding a madman and hammering away. When he saw them come in, he looked up and asked, "Are you here to buy furniture?"
"Yes, uncle."
"The furniture is all in the yard. You can pick out whatever you need."
Su Ruoli thought about what she needed. "Uncle, I need a bed, a table, two stools, a large box, a wardrobe, a kitchen cabinet for dishes, and a shelf for food. That's all I need now. If I need anything else in the future, I can come back to you, okay?"
Zhang Sitong listened to Su Ruoli talking about the furniture, which she needed, and said, "Uncle, mine is the same as hers. Can you help us calculate how much it will cost?"
