Seeing Zhao Hu take his share of food out of the basket, Li Yumei thought Zhao Hu was trying to pick a fight with her.
"That's none of your business."
Zhao Hu took the grain and left.
"Brother Chen, what do you think Zhao Hu means by this? Does he also want to fire alone?"
Chen Jianguo sighed, feeling that being the elder brother of the educated youth was becoming increasingly difficult. Every little thing required his judgment, as if he were the father figure.
"Yes, Brother Chen, if Brother Zhao Hu starts another fire on his own, our ward will become even more unsettled, which will not be good for the positive development of our ward."
Lin Qingqing found it difficult to speak, not to help Li Yumei, but for the sake of that little bit of food.
Zhao Hu was the only one in the educated youth compound who earned full work points every day, so he naturally received the most grain. Although Zhao Hu had a large appetite and ate a lot, he also contributed the most grain every day.
