Meat was distributed in the village on a household basis, taking into account the number of people in the household, so each educated youth received very little.
It was clear that Gu An'an had taken so much, so she assumed that she would also get just as much.
When it was her turn, Lin Qingqing pointed to the part she wanted and said in a coquettish voice, "Commander Xiao, I want this part."
Before Xiao Yuheng appeared, she thought Xie Yuan was her best choice, but Xiao Yuheng's appearance made Xie Yuan instantly lose his appeal.
She had hoped to strike up a conversation with Xiao Yuheng, but she never expected that Xiao Yuheng would not only hunt a wild boar but also participate in dividing the meat. If she didn't make a good impression now, what other dish would she be waiting for?
After leaving the group, Gu An'an stood aside and waited for Zhou Yue, and also for everyone to finish dividing the meat so that she could buy the offal and pig offal.
To her surprise, Lin Qingqing suddenly performed exceptionally well, giving her goosebumps with just two sentences.
Looking at Lin Qingqing's unusual gaze and then at Xiao Yuheng's icy face, Gu An'an shook her head inwardly.
She cast a flirtatious glance at the blind man.
Xiao*Blind*Yuheng: ...He's just being reserved, he's upholding male virtues, how does that make him blind?
Gu An'an's eyes were full of curiosity. Ever since she scared Li Yumei into submission and was protected by the village chief's family, fewer people came to cause trouble, and life became a little boring.
She never expected that dividing up meat would turn into a spectacle, so she had to take a good look.
Honestly, she felt that Lin Qingqing had no chance. Someone like Xiao Yuheng, not to mention his family, there must be quite a few people in the army who had their eyes on him.
Especially the female soldiers in the cultural troupe, in this era where makeup and disguise were no longer possible, were all exceptionally beautiful.
Xiao Yuheng didn't even date someone like that. Lin Qingqing's looks are just average, and she's got more tricks up her sleeve than a hornet's nest. Unless Xiao Yuheng is an idiot, he wouldn't date someone like that.
Just like he is showing right now.
While Gu An'an was internally complaining, Lin Qingqing kept her eyes on Xiao Yuheng, afraid of missing even the slightest change in his expression.
But she was still disappointed. Xiao Yuheng's face was like an iceberg, and she couldn't tell whether he was interested in her or not.
Just as she was thinking of something to say that wouldn't make her seem too eager but would still pique Xiao Yuheng's interest in her, a piece of meat appeared in her basin.
"Next."
Lin Qingqing stared blankly at the piece of meat. It was the part she wanted, but it was far inferior to Gu An'an's.
"No, Deputy Regiment Commander Xiao, are you sure you didn't cut the wrong thing?"
Xiao Yuheng's cold gaze fell on the piece of meat. "That's right, the village secretary has already calculated it. Eight ounces per person."
Eight taels may sound like a small amount, but since it's free and doesn't require any money or tickets, nobody would complain about it being too little.
"Eight taels? Then why did Gu An'an have so much?"
Gu An'an, feeling tired, placed the wooden basin on the table beside her. At this moment, everyone's eyes followed Lin Qingqing's words and fell on the large piece of meat in the wooden basin.
"You compare yourself to her?"
The simple four words made Lin Qingqing's cheeks burn. She hadn't expected Xiao Yuheng, who was so handsome, to speak so harshly.
Why is it Gu An'an again? The village chief protects her, the villagers praise her, and even Xiao Yuheng, whom she just set his sights on, feels that he is not as good as Gu An'an.
Why should she? In what way is Lin Qingqing inferior to the other party?
So what if she can get the full work points? But even so, she can still live a good life in the village even if she can't get the full work points.
"Commander Xiao, what do you mean by that? Are you insulting me?"
Xiao Yuheng: ...He didn't, he was just stating a fact.
Seeing Xiao Yuheng looking at her, Gu An'an understood his meaning and nodded slightly.
Although she didn't want everyone to know about the wild boar hunt, given the current situation, Gu An'an certainly wouldn't let Lin Qingqing succeed.
Xiao Yuheng's expression softened, and he said calmly, "Perhaps my wording was inappropriate just now, but I was just stating the facts. When I arrived, these two wild boars were attacking a male educated youth. When I intervened, the wild boars focused their attention on me."
The male educated youth who had been attacked managed to escape, but it was Gu, another educated youth, who ran out to help me, and that's how we managed to bring both wild boars back safely.
"The village tradition is that those who do the hard work get more meat. Has that rule changed?"
Seeing that Xiao Yuheng was a little angry, the village secretary immediately stepped in to smooth things over, "Nothing has changed, nothing has changed. Gu Zhiqing helped us, so it's only right that we get more meat."
“I have no objection. This is what Gu Zhiqing deserves.”
"Gu, the educated youth, is really amazing. Not only can he get full work points, but he also dares to fight wild boars face to face."
"A male educated youth? Could it be Xie, the educated youth? Xiao Xiao went to rescue him, but he ran away and didn't even come back to report. That's too much."
......
Lin Qingqing hadn't expected this turn of events. As she listened to everyone praising Gu An'an, her expression grew increasingly unpleasant.
"Comrade, do you have any other questions?"
When she met Xiao Yuheng's gaze, Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment. She felt that Xiao Yuheng had seen through her thoughts, but he seemed to dislike her.
Realizing this, Lin Qingqing no longer wanted to stay there. She left with a "No problem" and ran towards the educated youth compound.
Her departure did not dampen everyone's spirits for sharing the meat; after receiving their portions, they couldn't wait to go home.
After everyone had finished dividing the meat, Gu An'an finally spoke up, "Old Party Secretary, can we sell these offal and pig guts?"
Before the old Party Secretary could speak, Xiao Yuheng's eyes fell on Gu An'an. Everyone in the family said she was a good cook. Could these things also become delicious in her hands?
What should I do if I suddenly feel hungry?
