Zhou Rang's slow words stunned the others who were ready to return to the village to search.
Xiao Hejun touched the back of his head and said in embarrassment: "What should I do then?"
"What if they insist that they bought it with their own money?" Yu Mao also expressed his concerns.
Su Nan shook his head and said affirmatively: "I added something else to my box. The fragrance and texture are unique. It is not available anywhere else except here."
"That's easy. I have an idea." Zhou Rang looked around at everyone, then slowly told them the method he had just come up with.
After listening, Xiao Heguo made the final decision: "I think it's feasible."
"I think so too." Su Nan quickly raised her hand in support.

Inside the educated youth center in Xiaojia Village, Yang Feng and Zhong Xiaodie paced back and forth restlessly, making Su Tiantian feel uncomfortable. She couldn't help but yell, "What's wrong with you two? You're hanging around here so early in the morning."
"We are worried about Liu Yu and the others." Yang Feng laughed dryly, finally stopped and sat down on his bed.
Hearing this, Su Tiantian sneered and said sarcastically, "I didn't know you had such a good relationship with them."
"We are not as cold-blooded as some people." Zhong Xiaodie was not to be outdone. She rolled her eyes, lay down on her bed, and covered herself with the quilt.
Su Tiantian choked, but in the end she didn't say anything. She just snorted coldly and went to find Qin Xiaolan.
Yang Feng and Zhong Xiaodie were not as calm as they appeared on the surface. Instead, they were in great torment. The moment they thought of the box of snow ointment buried in the ground by the river, they felt extremely distressed.
There was still a small half left, and it was buried like this. What a pity.
There was nothing they could do. Now they could only pray that Liu Yu and the others would die soon, then they would have nothing to worry about, and they could get the Xueying ointment back without having to go to jail.
They felt absolutely no guilt for killing two people.
Suddenly, the door of the girls' dormitory was pushed open from the outside. Everyone looked towards the door and saw Su Nan, whose face was haggard and lost. They had never seen such a beautiful girl like her before, and they more or less guessed the outcome of the matter.
I couldn't help but step forward and ask.
"Comrade Su, how are Liu Yu and the others?"
"Are you okay?"
"Are you back alone? Where are Brother and the others?"
Without any warning, Su Nan squatted down with her hands covering her eyes, crying heart-wrenchingly.
"What's wrong? Don't cry."
"If you have any problem, just tell us and we will help you."
Yang Feng and the others who were originally lying on the bed also stood up, but did not move forward.
Yang Feng and Zhong Xiaodie looked at each other and saw relief in each other's eyes.
"Sister Xiaoyu and the others have already..." Su Nan was crying breathlessly and only said half of her words. Seeing her sad look, everyone quickly guessed the answer.
"It's fate."
"What about them? We have to bring them back and resettle them, right?"
Su Nan sobbed twice, wiped away her tears, and continued, "The captain sent a telegram to their mother in the county town and is waiting for a reply. He probably won't be back until tomorrow."
"I see. Comrade Su, don't be too sad. What if you get hurt by crying?"
"Life and death are determined by fate, and there is nothing we can do about it."
Everyone sighed again, unable to believe that the educated youth companions who had eaten and worked together yesterday were gone today.
With everyone's comfort, Su Nan finally recovered and was helped to sit on the bed. After a moment of silence, he seemed to remember something and suddenly stood up, scaring everyone again.
"Comrade Su, what's wrong?" someone asked.
Su Nan shed a few more tears and said in a hoarse voice, "I just saw the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town recycling the packaging of moisturizing oil and rouge boxes. The price is very high, one box costs one yuan.
I thought I had a lot of empty boxes, so I might as well sell them and send all the money to Xiaoyu and her parents, which would be a bit of a help."
"Really? The price of this recycling box is so high, it can almost buy another box of it." Su Tiantian suddenly jumped out.
"Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, go ask around in the county." Su Nan looked unhappy when he saw her, but she still patiently explained, "You don't know, the packaging is sometimes more expensive than the product itself, so they're willing to recycle it."
"The salesperson also told me that they were only buying the packaging boxes today because in a couple of days not only the body oils but also the packaging boxes would go up in price."
Everyone sighed and said, "It was already expensive to begin with, and now they're raising the price. Is there any justice in the world?"
"I have an empty box. Luckily, I didn't want to throw it away. Comrade Su, please help me exchange it for money and send it to Comrade Liu's family."
"I have some here too."
"Give me one, just consider it as a token of your appreciation."
Everyone started rummaging through drawers and cabinets looking for empty boxes. After all, except for those from very difficult families, most girls would buy themselves a box of skin care products, whether expensive or cheap. This is something that never changes.
Su Tiantian rolled her eyes, ran to Qin Xiaolan, and whispered, "Xiaolan, don't you have empty boxes there too? Let's exchange them for money too."
"Okay, but I don't want to ask Su Nan for help." In Qin Xiaolan's heart, even if she starved to death, she would never ask Su Nan, this annoying guy, for help.
Su Tiantian gave Qin Xiaolan an "I understand you" look, and then said: "Then we can't look for Su Nan anymore, we can do it ourselves, otherwise it will be a bargain for Liu Yu and his family.
We have no relationship with Liu Yu and the others, and it's not our fault that they died, so why should we donate money to them?"
Qin Xiaolan nodded in agreement. She had no good feelings towards anyone around Su Nan. After hearing what Su Tiantian said, all her concerns were dispelled, and she immediately started looking for her empty box.
Yang Feng and Zhong Xiaodie, who were standing by, watched everyone's actions and conversations, and immediately felt itchy. One dollar was worth many days' sleep.
But they never spend money on skin care products, so they never have empty boxes.
"Let's dig out that box of Xueyi Cream." Zhong Xiaodie said in Yang Feng's ear.
"This is not a good idea. What if we get discovered..." Yang Feng hesitated.
Zhong Xiaodie waved her hand and whispered, "I saw a box in Qin Xiaolan's pile that had the same packaging as ours. If anyone asks, just say it was sent by your mother."
Seeing that Yang Feng was still hesitant and unable to make up her mind, Zhong Xiaodie said, "Liu Yu and the others are dead, who would know it was us who took it? Can you please not be such a coward? It's only one dollar, how many good things can you buy with it?"
"Okay then." Yang Feng finally nodded.
So the two of them took advantage of the time when everyone was concentrating on finding the empty box and opened the door and slipped out.
Su Nan, who was originally recording the number of empty boxes for each person, suddenly raised his head and glanced at the door that had just been slowly closed, with a faint smile on his lips.
