Chapter 23 Who is willing to farm for a lifetime?
The pen flew erratically, and as if sensing the "mysterious person's" excitement, Xu Qingyan couldn't help but reveal a rare, genuine smile.
How should I address you?
He asked softly.
Yin Xiaoyin thought for a moment and tried to write down the three characters "Yin Xiaoyin," but sure enough, there seemed to be a difficult obstacle blocking her way...
Sparks flew in her heart. She had entered the dream through her own abilities, and she had gotten Xu Qingyan's help through her own abilities, so why couldn't she tell him her name!
However, these rebellious thoughts could not be detected by the check-in system. It buzzed a self-interference signal and then wrote down two words.
"Xiao Ba".
As the pen finished writing, a familiar feeling of detachment washed over Yin Xiaoyin: "..."
The pen landed on the table with a crisp sound. Xu Qingyan was taken aback for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Xiao Ba?"
Sure enough, there was no response at all.
He carefully placed the pen down, then burned the writing he had just scribbled into ashes and poured them down the drain.
As soon as Yin Xiaoyin opened her eyes, she found Yin Wenying sitting next to her bed, staring blankly at her.
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be so frightened that their heart would jump out of their throat. However, Yin Xiaoyin calmly pushed away that overly large face and asked, "What are you doing?"
Yin Xiaoyin then saw Yin Wenying point to the books neatly arranged not far away and ask, "Can I read those books?"
Early in the morning, Yin Wenying heard Ji Yueyan and others muttering to themselves. Later, after learning that Yin Xiaoyin had brought back a lot of books from the post office, she also became interested.
She was someone who wanted to improve herself. When things started to get chaotic at school, the Yin family considered stopping her from continuing her studies, but she persevered.
Even if you don't need the knowledge to use it right away, it's never a bad thing to learn more.
Yin Xiaoyin had already finished reading those books yesterday. After thinking for a moment, she said to Yin Wenying, "Have everyone wait for me in the courtyard."
Yin Wenying was a little puzzled, but since she had something to ask for, she nodded.
After she left, Yin Xiaoyin quickly got dressed, washed up briefly, and went to the yard.
The educated youth looked at Yin Xiaoyin strangely. Yin Xiaoyin cleared her throat and said, "Yesterday, I went to the post office to pick up the things my family sent me. There were many books. If you want to borrow them, I don't mind. But I only have one request: you must cherish the books. If you can't do that, don't blame me later."
With a stern little face, she looked at each one one by one with an air of arrogance.
Yin Wenying was somewhat annoyed and wanted to grab Yin Xiaoyin and shake her head violently. If she had known that's what Yin Xiaoyin thought, she wouldn't have helped call for help.
If Yin Xiaoyin does this, she won't be the only one to learn it; that's how she makes something rare and valuable!
The people at the educated youth settlement were taken aback at first, then asked again, somewhat incredulously and uncertainly, "Can we really borrow it to see?"
Books are personal property.
Yin Xiaoyin nodded.
She can't be capable on her own; she needs to cultivate countless capable people so that she won't be left to fend for herself and can ultimately achieve great things together.
Let's start with something as simple as borrowing a book!
Ji Yueyan walked up to Yin Xiaoyin and said with shining eyes, "Then we'll borrow the books you don't need right now!"
The others readily agreed, after all, these books belonged to Yin Xiaoyin, how could they take over the owner's initiative!
Yin Xiaoyin waved her hand casually: "It's okay, you can look at those whenever you want, I don't need them anymore."
After saying that, she turned and went to the kitchen to prepare today's food.
Generally speaking, when Yin Xiaoyin is cooking, apart from Ji Yueyan, no one else wants to be around. After all, she's eating white meat and noodles, which would make you drool with envy.
Ji Yueyan casually helped her burn firewood, and said with exasperation, "Those books are so useful! Auntie went to great lengths to have them sent to you, and you don't even bother to read them!"
He then lowered his voice and said, "However, I have a feeling that you may or may not have actually read it all!"
Yin Xiaoyin blew on the hot white cake and gave her a thumbs-up in approval.
Ji Yueyan stopped trying to persuade her. Sure enough, comparisons are odious.
Yin Xiaoyin grabbed a piece of food and stuffed it into Ji Yueyan's mouth, then said, "But I'm even better to you. If you have any questions, I'll answer them for you first, okay?"
Seeing her acting like she was coaxing a child, Ji Yueyan couldn't help but pinch the soft flesh on her waist and laugh, laughing in exasperation.
Yin Xiaoyin looked outside and saw groups of people gathered in twos and threes, happily discussing reading.
"Everyone seems to be very happy about this!"
Ji Yueyan rolled her eyes: "Of course I'm happy. Ever since I went to the countryside, it seems like my whole world has been shrouded in work. Now, I can finally enrich my spiritual world and learn a skill. Who wouldn't be happy? It turns out that we didn't just have a fellow educated youth, but a great philanthropist!"
Yin Xiaoyin smiled and smiled, "Then I really did a good deed."
Nowadays, the management of books is very strict. Books that can be mailed through formal channels are naturally not romantic books, but skill-based books, which are very difficult for the average person to find even if they want to.
For example, Xiao Chen, whom I mentioned earlier, didn't have a tractor in his village yet, so he went all the way to other places to get training on tractor knowledge, which made him very happy and he will never forget it.
Knowledge is priceless.
However, although it is unknown how Yin Xiaoyin's family managed to find these books, they are undoubtedly extremely attractive to everyone.
The autumn harvest is almost over.
They will be able to relax a lot then. Many people have already started thinking about borrowing books. After all, there are quite a few people in the educated youth settlement, so of course they have to act first!
Yin Xiaoyin simply handed over the book lending and management work to the other three female educated youths in her dormitory. After spending the past few days with them, she felt reassured that they were all quite particular people.
Leaving aside Ji Yueyan, she has been getting very close to Yin Xiaoyin these days.
The other two were incredulous when they learned of this, knowing that there were huge benefits behind it!
"Are you really leaving it to us?"
Yin Xiaoyin hummed in agreement a few times.
The two educated youths exchanged a glance, then immediately patted their chests and said, "Xiaoyin, don't worry, we will resist the temptation and protect your books!"
The educated youth, eager to borrow their desired books as soon as possible, would fawn over the people, with some even bringing them food, fetching water, and gathering firewood...
Chen Mengyue and her colleague were fair and impartial. They established rules for borrowing books and even made people sign a pledge to protect them!
Out of gratitude, he would occasionally sidle up to Yin Xiaoyin and say, "Xiaoyin, you should take a good look at these books too!"
In their view, Yin Xiaoyin had simply flipped through the book casually on the first night.
Yin Xiaoyin could only give them a perfunctory reply: "I've seen it, I've seen it!"
He clearly doesn't have any interest in reading.
Chen Mengyue and Chen Mengyue couldn't help but speculate privately: Could it be that Xiaoyin wasn't interested in these books because she was thinking of them, and that's why she specially had them sent from home?
After all, Xiaoyin's mother, Ms. Liang Minying, is that kind of person.
So gently answer their questions and light a lamp for their predicament.
I'm so touched!
