Chapter 52: Going into the mountains to search for supplies



When Song Fuyu and Tong Youyou prepared lunch and put it on the table, Mo Juan, who had been picking up pig manure for the whole morning, appeared in everyone's sight.

However, before people get close, the rich aroma drifts over with the wind.

"Oh my god, this stinks. Are we going to eat at the same table with her?"

Pan Yu covered her nose and was the first to say what everyone wanted to say.

"Why don't you serve her some food and let her eat on the side. It stinks so bad that I'm afraid I'll vomit my breakfast before I even start eating lunch."

Hao Jianye, the male educated youth, also covered his nose, obviously unable to bear it.

"Why do I feel like she didn't go to pick up manure, but rather fell into a manure pit and got soaked there? Look at her trouser legs, they're still wet, as if they were stained with something."

"Oh my god! Hurry up, don't let her into the yard yet, or the whole Youth League compound will smell like pig manure."

As Mo Juan got closer, everyone saw the wet and sticky spot on her trouser leg.

Song Fuyu felt that she might not need to eat lunch today because she felt like vomiting.

The other educated youth didn't even bother to eat and just stood up and blocked the gate.

"Mo Juan, don't come over yet. Stand still and don't move forward."

In fact, they really guessed Mo Juan correctly.

When she was picking up pig manure, she didn't control her strength well and accidentally tipped over two full buckets of pig manure, which fell on her legs and even got some on her body.

"Why are you stopping me? I want to go in and take a shower!"

She did not stop, but moved a little closer to the door.

"Don't move!"

Even Ye Feixue and Xiao Jun covered their noses and took several steps back.

The group of people were in a stalemate.

Song Fuyu did not step forward, but stood at the kitchen door, watching the other educated youth and Mo Juan confronting each other at the gate of the courtyard.

There are two reasons why I don't want to go forward.

First, she didn't want to go up and smell the stench.

On the other hand, if the other party receives the punishment he deserves, she will not add insult to injury.

"Sister Fu Yu, what should we do when we take a nap and sleep at night? Won't it stink?"

Compared with the people blocking the door, the little girl Tong Youyou's considerations were a little further ahead.

When sleeping, the girls gather in a closed room. If the stench is not solved, the stuffy environment will be even more unbearable.

"Don't worry, there are people who will be more worried than you. After all, the two of us are the farthest away from Mo Juan's bed."

"But even though Ye Feixue is closest to her, aren't they usually on good terms? They shouldn't say anything about her, right?"

Song Fuyu smiled faintly.

Can't tell her? That's not necessarily true.

Ye Feixue may appear peaceful on the surface, but he is actually a tough guy.

Besides, there was Pan Yu, whose bed was next to Ye Feixue. The two had a big fight over the kerosene lamp on the first day, and they would not tolerate the smelly Mo Juan.

A group of people were in a stalemate at the gate of the courtyard. Mo Juan refused to step back and they refused to let her in.

In the end, it was Cao Xiangshan who stepped forward and provided a timely solution.

"Mo Juan, don't rush in, let us go boil some water for you."

"Comrade Ye Feixue, please go to your female comrade's room and help Mo Juan find some clothes and toiletries, and take them directly to the bathroom for her."

"I..."

Ye Feixue didn't want to go, but when she met everyone's eyes, she smiled in time.

"Okay, I'll get it for her right away."

On the short walk back to the room, she had already cursed Mo Juan in her heart, but she was afraid that other people would see the expression on her face, so no matter how unhappy she was, she still maintained a decent smile.

"Mo Juan, come in through the small door over by the vegetable garden, and go straight to the bathroom after you come in. Don't walk around."

Mo Juan had been carrying manure for the entire morning and was already extremely tired, with her legs trembling.

But there was nothing she could do about the group of people in front of her. If she didn't agree to take a detour, they would definitely not let her in.

However, Cao Xiangshan had said that he would boil water for her. Although she wanted to take a bath anyway, she chose to go to the small door beside the vegetable garden obediently.

Seeing Mo Juan enter the bathroom, the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's separate Mo Juan's food first. Don't wait for her. Let's eat first."

Pang Xiuli directly took Mo Juan's bowl and put some food out of it.

"Everyone, eat quickly, it's getting cold."

The group of people at the dinner table had different thoughts, but they all had one thing in common: after what happened just now, everyone inevitably lost their appetite.

At the dinner table, only the male educated youth named Li Wende was eating happily.

Seeing that no one had touched the food on the table and there was still a lot left, he simply picked up a few large pieces with his chopsticks and put them into his own bowl.

He was sitting right opposite Song Fuyu. Looking at his unruly eating habits, Song Fuyu, who was already feeling sick of eating, lost his appetite even more.

"You guys continue eating, I'm done."

After saying that, he got up and left the kitchen.

"Um...I'm done eating too, you guys continue eating."

"I'm going back too."

One by one, they all left their seats.

Some went back to their rooms, and some went to wash dishes.

Tong Youyou had to stay last because she had to wash the dishes.

After taking a shower, Mo Juan came to the kitchen and saw Tong Youyou was the only one there. Her expression suddenly changed.

"Where are the people? Have they finished eating? Where is mine?"

"I've left some for you on the stove. There's food on the table. Please continue eating."

Not wanting to stay alone in the same space with Mo Juan, Tong Youyou didn't bother to wash the dishes and went straight back to her room. As for the dishes, she would wash them when she got home from work in the evening.

Song Fuyu thought that when Mo Juan came back later, there might be more quarrels, so he simply didn't take a nap at noon and went directly to the foot of the mountain.

It is already early October. The highest temperature during the day is only around ten degrees Celsius, and it is close to zero degrees Celsius at night. The crops in the fields are almost harvested.

After a while, although we don’t have to work anymore, the temperature will get lower and lower, and it will probably be more difficult to go up the mountain.

The house they were building was small and would be completed in about half a month. Since there was still more than an hour before work started in the afternoon, she went to the area near the mountain to search for anything.

After moving out, before going to town, we still had to rely on supplies from the mountains to survive.

Especially firewood, which also has to be collected separately.

It seems that there are still a lot of things to do after moving out.

Without hesitation, Song Fuyu walked straight up the mountain.
