"Thank you. Zizhen and I will go ask the captain later."
"It's okay. I can't really help you two. You still have to ask the captain in person to know what to do. Can it be done?"
"You gave both of us a direction, thank you so much!!"
Seeing them like this, I really want to say a few more words. People are like this. When they meet someone who doesn't know how to be polite, they don't bother to say a word. When they meet someone who knows how to be polite and talks well, they want to say a few more words and give some advice.
"You guys are a little late. After all, the autumn harvest has already passed. Although it is a good thing to hibernate directly, we still need to pay more attention to the issue of food. There is also the issue of firewood. The winter here is not a joke. If you don't store enough firewood to keep the house and the kang warm, you will really freeze to death!"
After saying this, Song Jinxi didn't even look at them. He turned around, leaned against the backpack, and closed his eyes to rest.
The male educated youth wanted to say something, but the man named Zizhen shook his head and stopped him.
When they arrived at the educated youth point, Grandpa Niu asked them to take their things down, and then he took Song Jinxi away.
When Song Jinxi left, she heard the female educated youth whose name she didn't know say something sarcastic: "Miss Capitalism, you carry such a big basket of stuff and you don't live in the educated youth camp. What kind of style is this?"
Song Jinxi slightly opened his eyes and glanced coldly at the young woman, who was frightened and immediately ran into the yard, causing Song Jinxi to sneer.
"Humph, you coward!!"
As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I saw Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Tian coming with their two sons to deliver firewood.
Auntie Tian saw Song Jinxi coming back and immediately said, "Jinxi girl, you're back. It's time again. Just like in previous years, a bundle of firewood costs 4 cents. We can prepare enough for you in the next two days. If you run out of firewood before winter, just let us know and we'll get you a few more bundles. My family doesn't have any great abilities, but we're strong enough. You won't be cold this winter. By the way, where's Tiantian!"
"Tiantian, something happened at home, so I asked for leave to go back and take a look. It's nothing serious. Come in quickly. I came back late today and kept you waiting for so long. Although it's not winter yet, it's already mid-October. You're still a little cold. I'll go get you some hot water so you can drink it to warm yourself up."
"Hey, Jinxi girl, please stop nagging. You just came back from the county town, so you must need to pack up. Your uncle Zhuangzi and I, as well as these two, still have to go to the mountain. We have put the bundled firewood on the mountain, and we can't take it down all at once. We can only take it little by little. You can't stay here for too long. It would be really uncomfortable if the firewood you picked up was taken away by others!
We are leaving and will come back later. Don't close the door yet. We will put the firewood in the side room for you. We can fill two rooms today, two more tomorrow, and we will pile some more on the side the day after tomorrow. You will have enough for this winter."
Song Jinxi didn't say anything.
When Aunt Tian left in the evening, she calculated the money for today's firewood.
"Jinxi girl, we helped you bundle 76 bundles of firewood today. Each bundle costs 4 cents, which should be 3.04 yuan. You gave us 76 cents more!"
