Xu Zhiyi felt that this residence was much better than she had imagined, but Gan Tiantian muttered a few words as she looked at the dilapidated dormitory, while the other person's expression remained unchanged.
Xie Tang lent a hand from time to time, "You can ask the village carpenter to build a large cabinet to store your things. If necessary, you can get a lock yourself."
The three of them took Xie Tang's words to heart and decided to go in the next two days.
"Sister Tang, how do we eat at the educated youth camp? Do we each cook our own meals?"
Gan Tiantian raised a question that everyone is concerned about.
"No, everyone takes out their monthly rations and takes turns cooking. This saves time. The person who cooks that day can come back early, and the remaining work is divided among the educated youth. That way, they can have food when they get home from work."
Gan Tiantian was a little distressed, "It's over, I rarely cook at home, and the food I cook tastes terrible."
Xie Tang smiled brightly, "Everyone's cooking skills are about the same. It's hard to fill your stomach, so who cares if it tastes good or not?"
These words made Gan Tiantian put her worries to rest.
After the cleanup, the boys' dormitory was built bigger. There were large bunk beds on both sides of the large room, so the boys could clean up much faster than the girls.
When Xu Zhiyi and the others came out, they were already chatting with Su Cheng in the yard.
"Su Cheng, take them to the village committee to get the food. We will organize a welcome party for the educated youth tonight."
Su Cheng nodded, "Okay, then we'll go over there first."
There is still some distance between the educated youth point and the village committee, and it takes about ten minutes to walk there.
The village's old accountant knew they were coming early in the morning, and after they signed and received the food, he let them go.
Each batch of educated youth who went to the countryside was initially given a subsidy of 30 kilograms of corn. After this food was used up, the educated youth had to find a way to replenish their food on their own.
You can borrow it from the village committee and deduct it when you settle your work points at the end of the year.
Xu Zhiyi planned to follow the crowd. Although the supplies in front of people were not abundant, the mountains behind Xiangyang Village were rich in supplies, so he didn't have to worry about going hungry.
In the evening, new and old educated youth gathered together.
The mature Su Cheng is the eldest brother in the educated youth site. He has been here longer and interacts with the villagers more than others.
Su Cheng introduced the old educated youth one by one. There are now four men and three women among them.
The male educated youth included Gu Liang, Wang Jun, Shen Dashu, and Fu Huaijin.
The female educated youth included Xue Qing, Chen Zhaodi, and Luo Mei.
There was originally a female educated youth named Zhou Man who married into the village and had just moved out not long ago.
She had a sharp temper and was difficult to get along with, and because of some things that happened, no one invited her to the welcome party for the educated youth.
There were exactly three men and three women among the newly arrived educated youth.
The female educated youth include Xu Zhiyi, Gan Tiantian, and Jiang Wanqiao.
The male educated youth included Shen Dashu, Pei An, Zhou Sheng, and Fang Kai.
The two sides introduced themselves to each other in a friendly manner at the dinner table, and then...the meal began.
The meal tonight is quite rich, with corn porridge, vegetable pancakes, three vegetarian dishes, and a plate of stir-fried meat and green peppers with more green peppers than meat.
It was a rare occasion to have oily and meaty food, so the old educated youth obviously ate faster.
Seeing them like this, Xu Zhiyi didn't hesitate and started eating slowly.
Xu Zhiyi seemed to be eating slowly, but her movements were indeed not slow at all. However, she did not move her chopsticks to pick up the food, and was concentrating on eating the corn tortillas and porridge that she was given.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite harmonious with Xie Tang's intentional guidance and Su Cheng's natural response.
At this time, the educated youth were still full of enthusiasm and discussed how they could play their own role on this land.
While we were chatting and eating, the door of the educated youth site was suddenly pushed open.
The educated youth who were eating looked towards the door, and a woman in gray clothes walked in, her face distorted with anger.
"Oh, is this the welcome party for the educated youth? I'm also an educated youth at the educated youth site, why isn't anyone calling me?" The woman spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"Zhou Man, I heard that you were not feeling well these days and were resting at home. I didn't want to disturb you, so I didn't call you." Xie Tang explained.
"Tsk! Why didn't I call you? Don't you have any idea?" Luo Mei mocked the woman named Zhou Man beside her.
This undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
Zhou Man exploded instantly and rushed forward to slap Luo Mei, "Bitch, are you saying bad things about me behind my back again? I'm going to beat you to death."
She moved too quickly and looked a little crazy. Luo Mei never expected Zhou Man to suddenly rush over. She didn't react in time and was slapped by Zhou Man.
Luo Mei was furious and started to fight back while cursing.
"You are the bitch, how can you be as cheap as you, a seductive fox who loves to seduce others."
"If you dare to hit me, I will beat the shit out of you today."
The two men slapped each other, pulled each other's hair, and used fists and feet, and they wrestled together.
Su Cheng and Xie Tang rushed forward to try to stop the fight, but before Su Cheng could get close, he was accidentally injured by Zhou Man's nails.
Without caring about his own wounds, he went forward to pull Luo Mei, and Xie Tang went to pull Zhou Man.
The two angry men were incredibly strong and fought recklessly, and no one could stop them.
The new educated youth were confused, and the other old educated youth sat on the sidelines and watched.
"Xue Qing, Zhaodi, come and help me." Xie Tang started calling for help.
The two people who were called hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and pulled one person each, thus separating the two.
Su Cheng's face was scratched, and even the good guy he used to be looked a little angry.
"If you guys make trouble again, I'm going to go find the village chief. If anything happens then, you'll be responsible for the consequences."
When Zhou Man heard that they were going to find the village chief, her body stiffened for a moment.
"Bah!" Luo Mei still looked indignant and did not dare to attack again.
Zhou Man seemed to have calmed down. She ignored everyone and turned to walk into the night.
The farce ended with both sides injured and Su Cheng having several scratches on his face.
No one wanted to sit down and chat together anymore, so they cleared the table together and some people even finished the few bites left.
Of course, no one spoke up to explain this farce to the educated youth. Gan Tiantian was hesitant to speak, and Fang Kai secretly shook his head at her.
Those who went to work and those who were on their way were all tired after a day of work. They stopped talking and washed up.
However, Gan Tiantian's curiosity was burning, and she asked Xu Zhiyi a question while lying on the bed.
"Zhiyi, you said the person who came today was an educated youth. Why didn't you invite her to the educated youth welcome party?"
Xu Zhiyi was puzzled. I am familiar with you, so just call me Zhiyi.
"How would I know? I came here with you guys." I didn't really want to talk to an idiot.
He refused to talk anymore and pretended to fall asleep with his back to Gan Tiantian.
"I always feel like there's something odd about this educated youth camp." Someone behind him muttered quietly.
Xu Zhiyi was still not sleepy. This farce tonight had completely destroyed the harmony that had been shown at the dinner table.
The married female educated youth, the cold-eyed observation of the old educated youth, and the trouble-making in Su Cheng's words.
It seems like there's a lot going on at this youth cadre site.
But Xu Zhiyi didn't care, as long as she didn't get disturbed from farming, practicing, and eating meat.
If he dares to set his sights on her, she will teach him a lesson.
As long as your fist is strong enough, no matter what monsters and ghosts there are, just go to sleep!
