She walked for seven or eight minutes and arrived at the river. She saw from afar that there was no one by the river. She walked to a wide place with water, poured the dirty clothes on the pebbles by the river, filled a basin with water, put soap powder in the water to make foam, and then wet the clothes one by one and began to wash them.

It took me nearly an hour to wash all the clothes and quilt covers I brought with me. I put them in a basin, tied them into a basket, and then carried them home.

She returned to her yard and hung all the clothes out to dry. She also watered the vegetables and herbs in the yard.

It was almost noon when she finished all this, so she cooked herself a bowl of noodles for her lunch.

Then I went to the infirmary and looked through the recently dried medicinal herbs to see how they were drying. If there were any that were not fully dried, I would move them to the yard to continue drying them.

Those that have been dried are sorted and placed into small drawers for medicine. Those that need to be cut into sections or slices are cut into sections so that it is convenient to take them out for use later.

By the time she finished all this, it was already 2:50 in the afternoon. She got up, went out to wash her hands, then went into the kitchen to prepare food for dinner.

She kneaded the dough first and let it rise, preparing to eat some steamed buns made of two grams of flour with some rice soup in the evening, and then stir-fried three dishes, which would be enough for the three of them.

She took out a piece of bacon as long as her index finger, soaked it for a while, washed it, and fried it with peppers in the evening. The peppers were sent by Aunt Guihua.

Then there is some stir-fried cabbage and shredded potatoes, and some kimchi salad, and that’s a meal, enough for three people.

After letting the dough rise, she went to check on the herbs drying in the yard. After checking and seeing that they were almost dried, she put them back into the medicine room and locked the door when she came out. There were life-saving medicines in the room, so she was always very careful and would always lock the door unless she went in there.

From time to time, she would take a day off to stay at home and open the windows and doors to ventilate the house.

After collecting all the herbs, I went back to knead the dough and steam the buns, while rice soup was cooking under the steamer.

After steaming the buns, Tong Yiya began to prepare the dishes. She cleaned the bacon and sliced ​​it, then cut some peppers to stir-fry with it. She also cleaned two cabbages without heart, cut them into shreds, and stir-fried them with some mashed garlic.

Also, peel four potatoes, wash them, cut them into shreds, and put them in water to remove some of the starch to prevent the potatoes from oxidizing and turning black.

After all the side dishes are prepared, scoop the water from the other pot into the bucket. After the pot is dry, add oil. First, stir-fry the green peppers and bacon, then stir-fry the shredded cabbage with garlic, and finally stir-fry the shredded potatoes with dried chilies.

Aunt Guihua and Uncle Deng came when Tong Yiya was frying cabbage. When Uncle Deng arrived and saw that there was not much water left in Tong Yiya's water tank, he picked up a shoulder pole and carried a bucket to go out to help fetch water.

Aunt Guihua went into the kitchen to help Tong Yiya. She watched her cooking and smelled the aroma, praising her: "Tong Zhiqing, I didn't expect you to be such a good cook. I thought you city girls didn't know how to cook."

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie. I learned this from an auntie in an orphanage when I was little. You'll have to try it later," Tong Yiya said with a smile.

Her cooking skills are not as exaggerated as Aunt Guihua said. It’s just that people nowadays are reluctant to use oil when cooking, but she uses more oil, so it smells more fragrant, because she uses animal oil to cook the cabbage.

"You have to taste it carefully. We are sorry for asking you to treat us to a meal and prepare such delicious food," said Aunt Guihua.

But in her heart, she was thinking that she and her husband would have to come over more often to help with things in the future. Tong Zhiqing was a good person, and they couldn't take advantage of her.

"I should have invited you and uncle to dinner a long time ago. You have helped me a lot during this period. Please don't be polite to me," Tong Yiya said

"We didn't help you much, so don't be polite to me and your uncle," said Aunt Guihua

While the two were talking, all the dishes had been cooked. Uncle Deng had also returned with one bucket of water and was going to fetch the second bucket.

Tong Yiya took advantage of her free time to pick up some pickled vegetables and cut them into a cold dish, picked up some steamed buns and put them on the dining table, and scooped the rice soup into a large bowl and brought it to the table.

After setting the table and waiting for a few minutes, Uncle Deng came back. When the three of them were together, they sat down and started eating.

Aunt Guihua praised the dish while eating, and even Uncle Five nodded in agreement. Tong Yiya was very happy to receive the praise.

The three of them were very satisfied with the meal and finished all the dishes. Even the vegetable juice and garlic paste at the bottom of the bowl were eaten up by Uncle Wu using his steamed buns.

Later, Uncle Wu went to fetch another bucket of water and Aunt Guihua helped her clean up the dishes. Then they went back before it was completely dark.

The next morning, the village began to distribute food, and Tong Yiya went to line up early to distribute food. She took several sacks, all of which were prepared to hold the food.

Although she arrived relatively late, there were already many villagers queuing in front of her, and it took almost an hour before it was her turn.

She had only been here for over a month, and had not earned many work points. The work points earned in the half month of autumn harvest had to be saved for the summer grain distribution, so she only had over 200 to nearly 300 work points now. After deducting the 30 kilograms of grain she owed to the team, she could only get about 100 kilograms of grain.

Tong Yiya asked for 60 kilograms of corn, and the rest were sweet potatoes, potatoes, and 5 kilograms of unshelled rice.

The five bags she brought were just enough. Tong Yiya asked the villagers to move their food aside, and she was ready to borrow a cart to pull it back herself. After all, her home was really far from the brigade headquarters, with one village at the end and the other at the other.

After waiting for a while, she heard Aunt Guihua calling her: "Tong Zhiqing, are you going to take some food back?"

Tong Yiya turned around and saw that it was Aunt Guihua and replied, "Yes, Aunt, your family is also here to share the food. Is it your turn?"

"It's already been divided. Your uncle has brought back a truckload. There's still a little while left for the next load. We live far away, so we have to wait," said Aunt Guihua, pointing to three bags of grain not far away.

"It's indeed a bit far, so please sit down and wait for a while, Auntie," Tong Yiya said, handing a grain bag to Aunt Guihua to use as a bench.

"No, I just came to ask if you found a car to take the food back. If you can't take it back with my family, there's only a little left anyway, so it won't be a waste of time to take yours," Aunt Guihua refused.

Tong Yiya thought it was okay, as the two families lived not far from each other, and she was borrowing someone else's car anyway, so she said, "Okay, I'll thank you first, and I'll give you half a pound of brown sugar as a thank you gift. This is a must, so don't refuse, or I'll have to give it to you even if I borrow someone else's cart."

Aunt Guihua wanted to refuse half a pound of brown sugar at first, but after hearing what Tong Yiya said, she said, "Okay, I won't be polite with you. I'll ask your uncle to move it to your home later. You're a little girl, so you shouldn't carry heavy things."
