Ever since Xu Zhiyi told the village chief that she accidentally discovered a patch of wild chestnut trees in the mountains.
The village suddenly became lively.
The village chief didn't expect that Xu Zhiyi would actually be so bold as to go into the mountains.
Not only that, but we also found something edible.
The village chief told everyone in the village that there were wild chestnuts in the deep mountains.
It was sternly stated that no one was allowed to enter the mountains without arrangement, and if anything happened, the village would not be responsible.
Even if you are not afraid of death, think more about the old and young in your family.
Even after the warning, those who wanted to make selfish moves still didn't dare to do so.
Soon the village chief arranged for people to pick chestnuts in every household.
Considering the dangers in the deep mountains, Uncle Yang Liu was asked to lead the hunting team, mainly to protect the safety of people entering the mountains.
Even Pei Yan and Fang Hai were drafted by the village chief as soldiers.
Of course, the village chief would not go to find Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi has helped the village so much this time, and we can’t thank her enough.
The villagers' favorable impression of Xu Zhiyi was growing rapidly.
This educated youth has made a great contribution to the village.
For a while, Xu Zhiyi was praised by the aunt at the village entrance.
The village was busy, and Xu Zhiyi was not idle either.
To be on the safe side, she deliberately scanned the entire mountain and drove away the tigers and wild beasts in the mountain.
He also gave the driven tiger a hint of supernatural power to express his gratitude for its cooperation.
The men took some nimble women with them into the mountains to pick chestnuts and pack them in bags.
The men were responsible for transporting the chestnuts down the mountain, while the people at the foot of the mountain brought carts. After the chestnuts were transported down the mountain, they were towed back to the village by the carts.
In this way, the whole village worked together and it took three days to pick all the chestnuts from the trees.
Although it was a bit more laborious this time, each family was able to get a lot of chestnuts.
This is undoubtedly a happy thing.
After all the people in the mountains were safely evacuated, the whole village waited for the village chief to come and distribute the chestnuts.
The village chief did not distribute the income based on the number of people, but instead calculated it based on the work points each household had earned that year.
Those with more work points will naturally get more, and those with fewer work points will get fewer.
This way of distribution is fair, the diligent people are satisfied, and even if some people are dissatisfied, they dare not say anything.
After all, it is obvious that those who are lazy at work will get low work points.
Why bother saying it out loud and embarrass yourself again?
Every villager had a smile on their face, and it could be said that they were happier than during the Chinese New Year.
It is a happy thing to get some unexpected food so that you won’t be so hungry in winter.
After bringing the sorted chestnuts home, every household soon started cooking them.
When this kind of food is cooked and eaten, it has a soft and sweet taste, and children especially like it.
Children should not eat too much to avoid indigestion.
No one eats to their heart's content, and since it's a rare meal to have a full stomach, we have to save some.
The educated youth were also given chestnuts, but when calculated, each person received not much.
However, Xu Zhiyi got the largest share.
Luo Mei was still looking forward to it, and Xu Zhiyi simply shared the food with everyone, just like he did last time when he distributed pork.
In the end, Xu Zhiyi came back empty-handed.
"Xu Zhiyi, where are your chestnuts?" Luo Mei was still thinking that Xu Zhiyi would definitely get a lot this time.
At that time, if she eats more, she can save her own chestnuts and eat them when she is hungry.
The result was still a failure.
"I didn't take it. I had enough food, so I didn't ask for it." Xu Zhiyi's casual answer angered Luo Mei.
"Are you stupid? You don't even want anything edible. Why don't you bring it back and share it with us?"
Luo Mei spoke without restraint and said what was on her mind in front of everyone.
When Xu Zhiyi heard such shameless and self-righteous words, he burst out laughing.
"It's my own stuff, I don't need it if I want to, why should I give it to you? Do you think you're that shameless?"
Luo Mei has a round face and small eyes with single eyelids, which makes her face look even bigger.
Xu Zhiyi’s words almost made Gan Tiantian laugh, but she had to cover her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.
"We educated youth work for few work points, earn so little that we can't even get enough to eat. You're so capable, why don't you help us?"
Luo Mei began to tie up everyone and use moral kidnapping.
"I'm your father and your mother. Why should I care whether you're hungry or not? You can't do your job well, so you deserve to be hungry. Besides you, does anyone else want my chestnuts?"
Xu Zhiyi glanced at the other educated youth who came out after hearing the noise.
No one spoke.
Anyone with a normal mind would not say such a thing.
Luo Mei is just mentally ill.
"I don't have any chestnuts, so can you share yours with me?" Xu Zhiyi asked her in return.
Luo Mei hurriedly protected her food bag, fearing that Xu Zhiyi would come forward to snatch it.
Xu Zhiyi sneered, "You don't want to give yours to others, but you're trying to get mine. Can you please stop being so hypocritical?"
Luo Mei was so angry that her face turned red, but she still had self-awareness in her heart and knew that she could not beat Xu Zhiyi.
I could only stand there and get angry.
It was Xie Tang who spoke up and eased Luo Mei's embarrassment.
"Comrade Xu, I want to apologize to you on behalf of Comrade Luo Mei. She didn't think it through." Good sister Xie Tang came online.
Try to appeal to their emotions and reason with them.
"We are brought together by fate, and we should help and care for each other."
Xu Zhiyi has no good feelings towards people who try to steal his food.
I have no feelings for this female educated youth who seems gentle but actually has a smile that doesn't reach her eyes.
Without waiting for her to finish, she turned and walked into the dormitory.
Little fan girls Gan Tiantian and Shen Zhaodi followed closely behind.
When the others saw that the central figure had left, they dispersed.
Xie Tang was left standing there feeling a little awkward. No one had ever ignored her like this before...
Song Cheng comforted her with a few words, and the smile on her face almost disappeared.
"I'm fine. Comrade Xu might be a little unhappy." Xie Tang also glanced at their dormitory.
"Sister Xie Tang, Xu Zhiyi is too arrogant. He has no discipline at the educated youth center and even dares to disobey you."
After returning to the dormitory, Luo Mei started to sow discord, which seemed not very smart.
"Enough! Stop talking." Xie Tang, who was already feeling embarrassed, couldn't help but speak with anger.
It was this ferocious look that frightened Luo Mei.
Xie Tang reacted and a smile returned to his face. "Mei Zi, I was a little loud just now, don't mind it."
"Comrade Xu has her own ideas, and everyone in the village is very grateful to her. Don't offend her. She and the village chief care about you very much."
Xie Tang seemed to be comforting Luo Mei, but in fact he was adding fuel to the fire.
"No wonder she never liked to interact with the educated youth and instead tried to curry favor with those country bumpkins."
Sure enough, the not-so-bright Luo Mei was even more jealous.
"If she had told the educated youth in advance, they could have gone up the mountain to pick chestnuts themselves and picked more."
Xie Tang saw the jealousy in Luo Mei's eyes, but pretended not to see it.
How can I not teach her a lesson if she dares to treat her like this at the educated youth camp?
