The rice I had at noon and the grass I pulled all afternoon were basically digested.
Both of them were still growing, so drinking porridge would not satisfy their hunger at all.
Ruan Mengmeng thought about it and decided to make two bowls of vegetable and egg noodles and a few scallion pancakes, which would be enough to eat.
She did it right away, rolled up her sleeves, and started making noodles.
The younger brother Ruan Zilong also did not rest and ran into the kitchen to help.
Xia Xiaojing, who was in the same room, was exhausted when she came back.
She took some food from the cupboard, ate some, and then lay down in bed and went to sleep.
Ruan Mengmeng just glanced at her and went about her own business.
Since we have moved to the countryside, we will have to adapt sooner or later.
Because of a little thing or a small setback, they are devastated and unable to recover. In the end, they will be eliminated and become annoying. No one will indulge anyone.
This is the reality, Ruan Mengmeng can only sigh in her heart.
She is not the Buddha who can save all living beings and cannot save anyone. It is good enough that she can take care of herself and her brother.
Twenty minutes later it was time to cook.
The brother and sister each had a large bowl of egg noodles with some lard on top, which smelled delicious.
The two of them ate the freshly-made scallion pancakes with relish.
After the last incident with Wang Lili, Ruan Mengmeng placed the table she bought in Ruan Zilong's room.
The two of them had dinner here later.
Anyway, he is the only one living in the room, so it doesn’t take up much space.
There is a lot of free space left, but there is no need to put anything there.
The table fits perfectly in the room.
In order to prevent some blind person from coming over and taking advantage of them again, the brother and sister are afraid of trouble, so it is better to put an end to it as soon as possible.
Ruan Zilong had no objection. Whatever his sister said was what he would do, and it wouldn't harm him.
After working all day, the two were indeed hungry, so they began to eat with big mouthfuls.
For fear that there won’t be enough food, Ruan Mengmeng usually cooks a little more.
Any leftovers that cannot be finished can be stored in the space, so there is no need to worry about wasting them.
Each person ate a bowl and a half of noodles, plus two large scallion pancakes, and was barely full.
After dinner, Ruan Zilong was still the one who washed the dishes.
Ruan Mengmeng added some clean water to the big pot and boiled some water, preparing for the two of them to wash their bodies after digesting the food.
It's so hot today, the bathtub hasn't been made yet, and I can't go to the river to take a bath. In terms of space, it's even more impossible to use it secretly.
I can only endure the discomfort and wash it off first.
Once the bathtub is ready, I won’t have to feel so depressed.
It seems that the plan to move out of the Youth League Home should be put on the agenda.
It’s so painful that I can’t use the conditions and enjoy the benefits.
After everything was done, Ruan Mengmeng was not in a hurry to go to bed.
He took the younger brother's pair of gloves, took out scissors, needle and thread from the cabinet, and started to modify his gloves.
………..
In the kitchen at the back, it was Sun Zhaodi and Xiao Yan's group's turn to cook dinner today.
Xiao Yan is as good as men in fighting, but she knows nothing about cooking or doing housework.
However, she was not short of money, and if she went to the countryside, it was just to avoid certain people at home.
After discussing with Sun Zhaodi, Xiao Yan was willing to pay an extra dime each time in exchange for Sun Zhaodi taking on all the cooking tasks by herself.
Sun Zhaodi's family has many children, so she doesn't have a good life at home. Now that she has moved to the countryside, she has to send food home every month.
When she heard that Xiao Yan was willing to pay an extra dime and let her take on the task of cooking alone, she agreed without saying a word.
I didn't expect that there would be such a good thing.
When she is at home, she often cooks, does housework and takes care of her younger siblings. This kind of thing is easy for her.
She moved very quickly, cooking porridge, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables and frying dishes all in one go. In a short while, the big pot of rice for more than a dozen people was ready.
After serving all the food, she started calling people to come and eat.
“Dinner is ready!”
The reason why it is served in advance is the rule of the big pot meal.
Everyone's meals are rationed.
Otherwise, if you meet a shameless guy who serves a big bowl to himself and then it’s the turn of the next person to serve, the food is gone, what should you do then?
When they heard the three words "dinner is ready", the group of people became excited.
After working in the fields all day, I was exhausted. The steamed cornbread I had for lunch was digested long ago.
Needless to say, everyone sat down at the table.
Wu Fanghai, the leader of the educated youth point, was the first to pick up the bowl. Before he even took a sip of the porridge, he realized something was wrong.
After looking around, he noticed that there was one person missing from the dining room.
"What's going on? Why is there one person missing?"
Could something have happened? He looked at the people around the table with a puzzled look.
The village chief has entrusted these educated youth to his management, so nothing can go wrong.
Hearing his question, a group of people looked up at each other. It was just one person missing.
But what does this have to do with them? After working all day, they are exhausted. Who has the extra mood to take care of others?
"It seems that the new educated youth named Xia Xiaojing is not here..."
Sun Zhaodi muttered timidly.
Wu Fanghai thought for a moment, looked around at everyone, and found that the girl was indeed not there.
"Go call her!"
Wu Fanghai is a grown man and it is inconvenient for him to go to the girls' dormitory, so he can only assign someone else to go.
It just so happened that Sun Zhaodi was honest and obedient, and usually looked timid and cowardly, so sending her to call for help was the most appropriate thing to do.
As soon as the words fell, a group of people looked at Sun Zhaodi.
Sun Zhaodi knew she couldn't escape, so she stood up, wiped her hands, and prepared to go to the front yard to call Xia Xiaojing.
Wang Lili, who was sitting next to them, was unwilling.
"We've all worked all day, but she's not tired. We are. If she doesn't come to eat, then she's not hungry. Do we all have to wait for her?"
After saying that, she picked up the chopsticks on the table and started to eat the rice in the bowl without even raising her head.
The others looked embarrassed, not knowing whether to eat or not, and just sat there in a daze.
"As an old educated youth, can you be more tolerant? Some of these new educated youth are not used to it. If something goes wrong, who will be held responsible?"
Wu Fanghai was really angry this time.
Every time he said something, Wang Lili would jump out and contradict him without any hesitation.
"That's your business, it's none of our business!"
Wang Lili looked unconvinced and retorted with a ferocious look.
"Shut up, it's none of your business, so just keep quiet. No one thinks you're dumb!"
With a bang, Wu Fanghai slammed the chopsticks in his hand onto the table. He stood up suddenly, scaring the people around him.
I hope these two people won't fight over this.
