Two days later, Yun Yan decided to move officially, and Qian Qian helped her pack her things.
"Yun Yan, I really can't bear to leave you."
"Why would you be reluctant? We'll see each other every day, and we don't live far from each other. But you, please don't oversleep next time."
The two were chatting and laughing when there was a knock on the door. Yun Yan put down what she was holding and went to open the door.
Unexpectedly, I met an unexpected person: "Why is it you?"
Wang Fang hesitated for a moment before saying, "I came to thank you. Thank you for waking me up that day."
"You're welcome. As long as you can figure it out, it won't be a waste of my kindness."
Finally, Wang Fang and Qian Qian helped Yun Yan move her things into the new house.
Thinking that I would be holding a house-warming party in a few days and inviting all the people from the educated youth site, I didn't invite them to dinner this time.
He took out twenty dollars, which was the balance payment to the old carpenter for the furniture.
Then he went to the team leader's house. He was going to hold a house-warming party in a couple of days and wanted to exchange some vegetables with Aunt Wang. He also wanted to invite the team leader to come and have dinner.
When Yun Yan went there, the team leader happened to be there too. "Yun Zhiqing, this is the money left over from building your house. Keep it safe."
There were about ten yuan left, and Yun Yan took it and put it away.
"Captain, I'm hosting a house-warming party in a couple of days. Come over for dinner then."
"When I get there, don't make the dishes too sumptuous. Just stir-fry two dishes."
"You need to be more frugal with your money and stop spending it lavishly."
After that day, Liu Defu made a special effort to inquire about Yun Zhiqing's background and found out that he was indeed a martyr's relative.
Her parents were martyrs and left her some money. Although she didn't know how much it was, if she continued to spend it the way she was doing it, it would probably be all gone soon.
"I know, uncle." Yun Yan agreed seriously.
"Uncle, please also notify the masters who helped me build the house."
After returning home, Yun Yan closed the door, entered the space, and sorted out her things.
After building the house, there are only more than 400 yuan left. It seems that I have to find a way to make some money.
Seeing the pile of cheap rice and flour, Yun Yan decided to take some of them out and exchange them for money.
The next morning, Yunyan rode her bicycle to the county town and found the staff quarters of the government agency.
After some minor modifications, Yunyan walked to the family compound with a backpack on her back.
Seeing an old lady who was dressed rather elegantly, Yun Yan immediately walked forward.
"Grandma, may I ask where Director Wang's home is?"
"There are several directors named Wang in our hospital. Which one are you looking for?"
"That's the fat Director Wang. I'm his relative and I'm here to give him something."
The old lady glanced at the gap in the backpack that was not covered properly. Wow, there seemed to be rice, pork and brown sugar.
These are all good stuff. I was just saying that I would secretly go to the black market, but now I don’t have to go anymore, as they are delivered to my door.
"Girl, let me tell you, since you can't find anyone anyway, why don't you sell me the things in your backpack? How about that?"
Yun Yan pretended to be embarrassed and said, "That won't work. If the things are not delivered, others will be angry."
"Girl, don't be so stubborn. Just sell these things to me first, and then you can ask for his address and send a copy to him."
"Okay then, but the things in this backpack are not cheap. Are you sure you want them all, Grandma?"
"Yes, of course. Come in with me and let's talk at my house."
The old lady took Yunyan to her home. When they arrived, Yunyan took out the things in the backpack.
Twenty kilograms of rice, five kilograms of white flour, two kilograms of pork belly and one kilogram of brown sugar, totaling thirty-four yuan.
Then she went to several places using the same method. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Yunyan rode her bicycle back to the Red Flag Brigade.
After returning home, Yun Yan counted the income. She sold 500 kilograms of rice, 300 kilograms of flour, ten bags of brown sugar and ten kilograms of pork.
A total of more than 670 yuan was collected, plus various tickets.
Now I have more than a thousand yuan in savings, so I'd better keep the remaining food in the space for now.
I took out two baskets of pig grass that had been cut in advance from the space and went to hand in today's task.
After dinner, Yunyan, who was tired after a day, went to bed early.
Two days later, it was time for the brigade to go on holiday again, and Yunyan chose this day to hold a house-warming party.
She decided to prepare four dishes and one soup for the banquet, two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes: stir-fried pork liver with chili peppers, pickled fish, salad eggplant, and a hot and sour Chinese cabbage. The soup would be peanut and pork lung soup. The staple food would be corn buns.
I first went to the villagers to exchange for vegetables and sauerkraut. I also bought fish from the villagers. I bought pig liver and pig lungs the day before and put them in the space.
There were five tables for the house-warming banquet, three at the Youth League Home, one for the construction team, and then one for the team leader and several other cadres.
"Yun Yan, I'm here to help you." Qian Qian's voice came before he even arrived.
Yun Yan went out to open the door for her. After coming in, Qian Qian picked up the side dishes and started to clean up.
Qian Qian was learning while the cooking was going on. She wanted to learn a few dishes so that she could cook for herself in the future.
It can be seen that Qian really can't afford the food cooked by Chen Zhaodi.
After all the dishes were ready, Yunyan took out the borrowed plates and divided each dish into five portions.
As soon as the food was served, everyone arrived. Everyone looked at the five fragrant dishes on the table with an expression of disbelief.
When we heard Yun Zhiqing say that he was going to hold a house-warming party, we all thought that it would be great to have one meat dish. We didn’t expect that there would be not only fish and meat, but also cigarettes and alcohol.
Although the meat dish was pork liver and pork lung, it was already a very good meal for them, especially the old educated youth, who could not remember how long it had been since they had eaten meat.
The cigarettes are Daqianmen, which is bulk white wine. You will never see such good cigarettes at any banquet.
"Thank you all for coming to my house-warming party. The food I prepared isn't very sumptuous, so please don't be disgusted."
"Thank you all for giving me face, and thank you to the team leader and all the leaders for taking care of me. I also want to thank the construction team led by Master Chen for helping me build such a beautiful house. Here, I will use a water hose instead of wine to toast you."
"You're too polite, Yun Zhiqing."
Yun Yan sat down, picked up her chopsticks and started eating. Seeing the host start eating, the others also started eating.
"Yun Zhiqing, your cooking skills are really good. You can even make spicy and sour cabbage so delicious."
"Thank you for the compliment. If you think it tastes good, eat more."
The meal lasted for an hour and a half. The men were all a little tipsy and their steps were unsteady when they left.
The female educated youth stayed behind to help with cleaning, returning tables, chairs and benches, and washing dishes.
It was already past three o'clock when all the work was done, and several female educated youth had returned to the educated youth center.
