Not long after the food was brought back, the educated youth who had gone to work also returned to the educated youth compound one after another.

When the female educated youth who originally lived there entered the room, the four people suddenly had different expressions.

Some looked indifferent, some kept looking at them, and finally it was a girl who looked a little older who broke the awkwardness in the room.

"Hello, my name is Pang Xiuli. I am the female educated youth who has been in the countryside the longest and I am also relatively older. It's your first day here and you may not know the situation here. Let me give you a brief introduction."

"Now including the four of you, there are eight girls living here, and five boys at the moment."

"We usually hand in 15 kilograms of food at the beginning of the month, and then two people take turns to come back early every day to cook. We pick the vegetables from the small vegetable garden next door."

"Firewood for heating and cooking is shared. As for water, there is a large vat outside and we take turns to fetch water."

"Of course, if you don't want to share it and want to separate it, you can also bring it up. But there is only one stove and pot, so if you separate it, you have to prepare the cooking tools yourself."

After saying this, she smiled, glanced at Song Fuyu and the others calmly, and said nothing more.

"Sister Fu Yu, it seems that according to the current situation, we can only be a team of two."

"Well, let's team up in pairs. First of all, I can cook, but I hate washing dishes."

Apart from Tong Youyou, she actually had no one else to form a team with.

She doesn't hate cooking, but she hates washing dishes so much that it would be great if someone else could do it.

"Okay, I'll take care of the dishes."

Her cooking skills are terrible, but she still washes the dishes very cleanly.

She had tried cooking before, but the dishes she cooked were all black.

Her eldest brother complained that it was a waste of food and told her not to do it again.

So she gave up the idea of ​​learning how to cook.

Mo Juan formed a sharp contrast with Tong Youyou, and she curled her lips unwillingly.

When she was at home, she was the only one doing the cooking, washing, cleaning and other chores. She thought she would have an easier time after going to the countryside, but now she still has to cook.

And together with Ye Feixue...

She seems to have no idea how to cook, so doesn't that mean she has to do the work of two people?

But now that the other people have already formed their teams, it seems that she has no other choice but to partner with Ye Feixue.

"You should pay for this meal first, and then see what Cao Xiangshan says. He is the captain of our Youth Academy."

When Song Fuyu and Tong Youyou heard her say this, they immediately packed their rations and handed them to Pang Xiuli.

"Sister Xiuli, these are the two of us. Sorry to bother you."

"It's no trouble, it's my duty."

When Pang Xiuli walked in and saw Song Fuyu for the first time, she was a little stunned, but didn't say much.

It's the boys' turn to cook tonight.

The staple food was coarse grain porridge, followed by some stir-fried vegetables and a cold dish. As for meat, there was definitely no meat.

Ye Feixue and Mo Juan looked at the dishes on the table and forced a smile.

At home, I could still eat fine grains from time to time, but after going to the countryside, the food quality plummeted.

The little food the village distributed had to be eaten sparingly.

"Don't just stand there, sit down and eat."

The person who spoke was the educated youth team leader Cao Xiangshan. He greeted several people with a smile on his face.

"We were assigned to the same village by fate. Although we all come from different places, since we have come to Shanhe Village and the Youth Home, we are all one family."

"If you have any difficulties, any discomfort or discomfort, please speak up in time, and everyone should help if they can. Don't do unnecessary things and hurt each other's feelings."

"Okay, I won't say much else. Everyone take turns introducing yourselves and getting to know each other."

"Let me go first."

"My name is Cao Xiangshan, I'm 22 years old, from Liushi, and I've been in Shanhe Village for four years."

"I'm Tong Tao, I'm 20 years old, from Wu City, and I've been here for two years."

......

Everyone introduced themselves one by one.

Except for the six people who came today, everyone else came from different places across the country.

It turns out there were two people before.

However, one of them applied for sick leave, and the other went home to take over the job for his family.

Unless there are special circumstances like this, it is generally difficult to leave the countryside.

Even if you want to leave, the city usually won't be willing to accept you, so you can only stay in the countryside.

From the initial enthusiasm, to the subsequent loss of passion, to the current numb acceptance.

Although no one said it, Song Fuyu still saw helplessness in some people's eyes.

After finishing the meal and putting away the things on the table, Cao Xiangshan told everyone about his future decision.

"It's already been a few days this month. Each of you will hand in eleven kilograms of food, and then everyone will take turns cooking."

"Of course, if you want to share your food, I won't force you to do so."

"But you have to prepare your own cooking utensils. If you can't buy them, you can cook at different times, but the premise is that it doesn't delay everyone's normal time."

"If you have any opinions, you can raise them now. If you don't say anything, it will be regarded as your consent."

"Comrade Cao, do we girls have to pay the same amount of food?"

Mo Juan recalled the dinner scene just now. The boys obviously ate more than the girls.

There is only so much food in a month, and we have to subsidize everyone if we share it together. It's really a loss.

After all, Cao Xiangshan had been here for four years, so he knew what she meant without her having to finish.

"Don't worry about that. When we eat, we don't distinguish between men and women. We share the food equally. Today, we didn't share it because we were afraid that you weren't used to it and didn't bring the right bowls."

"As for the vegetables on the table, you can be quick, since we grow them ourselves anyway."

Mo Juan nodded reluctantly to show that she understood.

"Comrade Cao, excuse me, I want to ask you something. I see there is a house behind the Youth Courtyard. Whose house is it?"

"That one is from Jin Kai. He was also an educated youth. But his family was rich and felt that there were too many people in the educated youth compound, so he asked the team leader for a piece of land and built a house for himself."

When Song Fuyu heard that the other party was also an educated youth, he suddenly felt happy.

Since someone has set this precedent, she doesn't need to think of any other solutions.

So I plan to find the team leader tomorrow and ask about the general situation of the house construction.

Try to build your own house as soon as possible and move out as soon as possible.
