Cheng Fangyuan had lunch at the old house, and he only needed to make something simple for himself.
Song Tanglan was not used to getting along with strangers, so she suggested to Song Tangcheng that she cook lunch by herself. Aunt Li originally suggested that she just go to the old house to have lunch without having to go through the trouble of cooking separately.
However, Song Tangcheng politely refused. There was nothing she could do. She knew her younger sister's habits to some extent and was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so she did not agree to go to the old house. After all, it wouldn't take much firewood to cook lunch by herself.
When Song Tanglan learned about this, she was secretly delighted. She was still thinking about what to do about this matter, but she didn't expect that her second sister had helped her think of it.
Thinking of the original owner's weak character, and the fact that people of this era attach great importance to reputation, Song Tangcheng asked Cheng Fangyuan to have dinner in his hometown. He couldn't let outsiders make up stories about this matter. Those gossipy old women don't care what your relationship is. Once they start talking nonsense, you can't stop them.
Song Tanglan went to the kitchen and thought about what to eat for lunch. "What should I eat?"
She looked at the ingredients in the kitchen, including the vegetables and bacon she had just picked. In addition, there was no shortage of ingredients in her space. Thinking that she had been tired all morning and needed to reward herself with a good meal, Song Tanglan decided to make a bowl of shredded pork noodles, which was both simple and nutritious.
It was just to compensate for her injured hand, so she started to work after thinking it over. However, she had never used an earthen stove before, so it took her a while to light the fire.
Fortunately, she learned a little bit when helping to cook yesterday, otherwise she would have had to eat dry food at noon today.
Song Tanglan was leisurely making lunch here, which was in stark contrast to the chaos at the Youth League Institute.
Su Tao was originally very happy because she knew that she had earned 4 work points in the morning. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived at the Youth League Home, she heard the old Youth League talking bad about them behind their backs. Su Tao was so angry that she almost wanted to confront them.
At this time, Sun Jianhua, who was still relatively calm, quickly grabbed her and comforted her, "No one mentioned you by name. You will suffer if you go up like this."
Although Su Tao was very angry, she quickly reacted, thanked Sun Jianhua, and returned to her dormitory, pretending not to hear the noise in the kitchen.
But this was just the beginning. When they were eating, the old educated youth who cooked distributed rice to the new educated youth, which was obviously less than what the old educated youth received. In addition, she had obviously paid more grain, but the amount she received was the same as that of other female educated youth.
How could Su Tao not be angry about this?
"You're going too far. We paid the same amount of grain, but why do you old educated youth get so much while we new educated youth get so little? I even paid more grain, but it's still not as much as you who paid less. It was the same yesterday and it's happening today too. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'm going to go to the team leader and ask for justice."
Tian Yulan was a person who liked to stir up trouble. In addition, she had been doing farm work all morning and finally found a man to help her with some of the work, but she was pointed at and criticized by those peasants, and the old educated youth were also making sarcastic remarks to her.
"Exactly. You didn't even bother to put oil in the stir-fried dishes. They tasted like pig food. You even had the nerve to ask us for money for firewood, rice, oil, and salt yesterday. It's obvious that you didn't put any oil in this dish."
After saying that, he looked at Zhou Xiaoli who was cooking with disdain.
The other new educated youth were also very dissatisfied with their actions today, but they were all smart and did not say much at this time. Instead, they waited for the two to take the lead.
Sun Jianhua saw that Su Tao was angry and was about to remind her, but he didn't expect the girl to explode directly. There was nothing he could do but shut up. He couldn't just slap his friend in the face.
Zhou Xiaoli looked at the meal she cooked today and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It was the same as usual and they still ate for so long.
But now she is said to be worthless. When Su Tao first said that, she felt a little guilty, but how could Zhou Xiaoli be willing to endure being pointed at and scolded for making something that looked like pig food?
Today I happened to be in the same team with Tian Yulan. I saw this vixen who didn't forget to seduce men even at work and made those men work for her. She was very annoyed by the attentiveness of those men.
It happened to be her turn to cook lunch at noon. She was so angry that she had no place to vent. She had been holding back her anger for a long time, but she didn't expect that at this time, these new educated youth would come here to criticize her. She immediately slammed her chopsticks on the table and said:
"What do you mean by how much? Isn't it all the same? Besides, the vegetables you eat are grown by us, and we haven't even charged you for them. If you can't make ends meet, you can divide them up and start your own cooking! You're like a foxy woman all day long, just waiting for others to serve you."
Tian Yulan originally just wanted to say something sarcastic, but she immediately became unhappy when she heard this:
"You dress like a country bumpkin, and you don't allow others to wear nice clothes. Besides, you are the ones who bully us new educated youth. Look at how thick your bowls are, while ours are just like water. Who thinks I'm easy to bully? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will go and complain to the team leader immediately."
Li Meifang was also very dissatisfied with the old educated youth's behavior. Now seeing Tian Yulan rushing forward to argue without thinking, she couldn't help but feel secretly happy in her heart.
He wished they could set it up right away, since the fire wouldn't burn her anyway. However, in order to continue to gain benefits from Tian Yulan, he could only agree reluctantly.
"You just like to bully us new educated youth. Su Zhiqing has clearly paid a lot of grain, but look at what's in her bowl, and then look at what's in your bowl. It's obvious that we're using our grain to feed you."
Li Meifang's words immediately touched the hearts of the old educated youth. They did have this idea, but they had never expressed it. It was the end of the year and it was not time to distribute grain yet, so they didn't have much surplus grain on hand.
