When Chen Yu and the others finished eating the sweet potatoes and came out, they looked no different from Su Nian and the others.
"Chen Zhiqing! Are you going to pull coal briquettes?" Su Nian asked with a smile.
"I haven't done it yet! I'll go to the toilet later!" Chen Yu rarely made a joke.
"Hahaha~" Sun Yanyan and Qin Yuxian both burst into laughter.
Du Xingfang and Li Na also couldn't help but laugh.
After laughing and joking, Su Nian and the others took out their backpacks, small sickles and other standard equipment for going up the mountain.
"Su Zhiqing! Are you going up the mountain?" Chen Yu asked with a smile when he saw Su Nian and the others carrying baskets on their backs.
"Yes! Go collect firewood. We have to cook and heat the kang every day, so we have to collect more firewood, otherwise it won't be enough!" Su Nian answered with a smile.
"It's really true that everyone is diligent when they are diligent. One lazy person can make the whole bunch lazy! Su educated youth, you are better at planning than us educated youth who have been here for a few years!" Du Xingfang said meaningfully.
"Oh! We have to learn how to live our lives. We are forced to do things without any effort and are groping in the dark!" Su Nian said with a smile.
While they were talking, people were already walking out.
"We'll go first!" Sun Yanyan and Qin Yuxian said, and hurriedly followed.
Although they had some friction with Chen Yu and others at the beginning due to some things, they were still very friendly on the surface and didn't take it to heart.
When meeting someone, you should say hello and talk, but you won’t bring up interests. This makes things peaceful and harmonious.
Su Yiyi and the others were criticized by Du Xingfang in a veiled manner. Although they felt aggrieved, they had nothing to say. Who made them owe so much firewood?
"Wang Zhiqing, Jiang Zhiqing, Li Zhiqing, let's go up the mountain to collect firewood?" Su Yiyi couldn't help but ask as she watched Su Nian and the others leave.
"It's so cold and it's almost dark! Aren't you afraid of encountering wolves? Let's go tomorrow?" Wang Ping looked at the sky and said.
"What time is it now?" Su Yiyi looked at Jiang Beichuan and asked.
The sun is shining brightly and it's still so warm. It shouldn't be too late, right?
"Three forty-five!" Jiang Beichuan raised his hand and looked at his watch and answered.
Su Yiyi looked at the shiny Plum watch on Jiang Beichuan's wrist with envy.
I used to have a watch at home. If my uncle hadn't emptied the house, I could wear a watch when I go out. How cool!
"Look! Let me tell you! It will be dark in more than an hour! Don't go!" Wang Ping waved her hand and said.
"Okay, then we'll go tomorrow! We have to get up early tomorrow!" In fact, Su Yiyi didn't want to go either, she was just putting on an act for Chen Yu and the others to see.
"Yes, it's getting dark. It's cold now and it gets dark early. Let's get up early tomorrow and go tomorrow!" Li Tao also said.
He had no objection to going up the mountain to collect firewood, as he used to do so often.
Ever since I started living with Su Yiyi and the others, I have been picking up a little bit every day. I basically don’t stockpile too much, just enough for us to use.
Gradually he got used to it, picking up as much or as little as he could, as long as it was enough for him. As for paying off the debt, he would just pay it back slowly!
Chen Yu, Du Xingfang, Li Na and others thought that these people were finally stimulated and decided to go up the mountain to collect firewood.
Who knew that after just a brief thought, nothing happened again. I couldn't help but curl my lips and snort.
"What a bunch of lazy people! Just freeze!" Du Xingfang said sarcastically and turned back to the house.
Chen Yu also shook his head and sighed. Even Li Tao has become lazy!
When Su Nian and the others came out, they were having a lot of fun.
Carrying a backpack, he walked out of the village laughing.
"Su Zhiqing!" When passing by the brigade office, I happened to meet Captain Chen.
"Captain Chen! Where are you going?" Su Nian greeted with a smile.
"I'm just looking for you! Come here!" Captain Chen waved and said to Su Nian.
He said this in a mysterious and furtive manner, looking around as if he was afraid of being seen.
It was because of him that Su Nian also looked around nervously before walking over.
"What's wrong, Captain Chen? What happened?" Su Nian asked in confusion.
"The day after tomorrow, the supply and marketing cooperative will deliver a batch of pork. No tickets are needed. It's one yuan per pound, and each person is limited to two pounds! If you want to buy, then go and line up early!" Captain Chen whispered to Su Nian.
"Ah! Really? That's great!" Su Nian asked happily.
Su Nian's surprised expression was so in line with the times that she was actually very shocked and interested.
"Keep your voice down, if it gets out, forget about buying it!" Captain Chen made a hushing gesture and said quickly.
"Hehe! I forgot! Let's go quietly! How early should we go?" Su Nian asked again.
"We have to go at least in the middle of the night!" Captain Chen said thoughtfully.
"No! Captain Chen, how are we going to get there in the middle of the night?"
"You can keep the villagers company!"
"Doesn't anyone in the village know about this?"
"I told everyone close to me!"
“How many people are you close to?”
"Only four or five, five or six, seven or eight? About ten or twenty... maybe?" Captain Chen said as he thought and counted. In the end, he couldn't even count how many there were.
Su Nian was originally full of longing, thinking that Captain Chen was really capable and was thinking of good things for her!
So, they are all close friends on the street! So why are you still so secretive?
Su Nian, who had a smiling and mysterious face, gave Captain Chen a displeased look.
"Still keeping it a secret? Just wait, the whole village will know tomorrow! If the whole village knows, the women will have to inform their families, right? Even if the neighboring village knows, the neighboring village will know, and the neighboring village will know too..." Su Nian was counting the neighboring villages on his fingers...
