Chapter 558: Come again to 70 as an educated youth 4
One educated youth asked the team leader, "Uncle Captain, how many educated youth are there in our village now? If I were to live in a free house, which one should I go to?"
The team leader replied: "There are 24 educated youth in our village now, and seven or eight of them have started families in the village.
One of the big houses is occupied, another one is occupied by three people, and the rest of the people rent the small courtyard here.
There's a little distance below the main courtyard. That's the cattle shed where the people below live. Please be careful when you're around them."
After hearing the number reported by the team leader, Sui Xin couldn't help but be surprised. There were indeed quite a few educated youth in this village.
I don’t know how many of the people who came this time wanted to live in the courtyard.
She doesn't want to live with others. She has too many secrets and it's too inconvenient to live with others.
So she decisively said to the captain, "Uncle Captain, I want a separate courtyard. Should I give you the money now, or go to the office with you later?"
The team leader didn't expect that the most decisive one among this group of educated youth was a girl.
Once you have the first one, there will be no worries about others following suit. This is what all young people do.
He said to the old man driving the car, "Uncle Liu, please give me a receipt and collect the money."
He turned to the educated youth and said, "Uncle Liu is our brigade's accountant. It's too late today. Go to the brigade tomorrow to get the grain the village loaned you. Just go find Uncle Liu."
Sui Xin was stunned. The village leader and accountant came in person to pick up the educated youth. Could it be that they were just here to work on-site?
Seeing how skilled they were, the team leader took out a flashlight to illuminate the area, and the accountant Liu Bo took out the receipt, pen and seal from his pocket.
This was done in one go, it doesn't look like it's the first time at all.
No need to go to the office, just issue the receipt and collect the fees directly, don't be too smooth.
After collecting the money, Uncle Liu said to Sui Xin, "Girl, let your captain show you around the remaining courtyards. Pick one that you like."
He turned to face the other educated youth.
"Do you want to rent a house or sleep in a dormitory? Hurry up, I have work to do tomorrow. I'm an old man, so I have to go home and sleep early."
The educated youth were stunned by the fright.
This little old man can change his expression. He is gentle and warm towards Sui Xin who creates income for the village.
Although he was not cold and indifferent to these educated youth who only wasted his time and brought him no benefit, he handled his affairs in a fair and impartial manner.
After some thought, the two male educated youths decided to rent a small courtyard together, and the remaining four planned to live in a large dormitory.
After collecting the money, the old accountant took the educated youth who were sleeping in the dormitory to the house that was not occupied.
He knocked on the door and called out, "Zhao Zhiqing, open the door! The new educated youth has arrived."
After a while, a male educated youth in his twenties came out.
Accountant: "These new educated youth will live in your compound. Please take them in."
After Zhao Zhiqing thanked the accountant, he took the few people in.
The remaining two male educated youth continued to follow the accountant to look at houses.
In fact, all the yards are the same, there is nothing to choose from.
Sui Xin chose a small courtyard close to the downwind direction, and the houses of the other two male educated youth were next to hers.
After confirming the yard, the captain gave the key to Sui Xin.
After seeing the captain off, Sui Xin locked the door, returned to the room, unpacked his luggage, and pretended to have used it at night. Then he went into the space to wash up and go to bed.
After a busy day, it’s already past ten o’clock in the evening.
This body's biological clock does not allow her to stay up late. She is so sleepy that she can't even open her eyes. She will deal with the rest of the things after she wakes up tomorrow.
Anyway, the captain said before leaving that he would let them have a day off tomorrow.
The next morning, the educated youth got up early, washed, cooked, and prepared to go out to work.
Sui Xin slept soundly in the space all night, nourished by spiritual energy. She also drank spiritual spring water before going to bed. She felt relaxed all over and got up early.
However, she did not go out. Instead, she took out the cleaning talisman and cleaned the whole house.
Then she spread out her bedding, packed up her things, took out breakfast from the space and ate it before she walked out of the house.
At this time, the old educated youth had already gone to work.
Sui Xin was carrying a small army green bag and planning to go through the village to the county.
The housing problem has been solved, but daily necessities such as pots and backpacks are still not available.
Although there is enough in Sui Xin's space, there is none in his luggage, so he has to go to the county to buy some.
When she walked to the cornfield she passed by yesterday, she saw that the educated youth in front of her who had come with her yesterday were the ones living in the big dormitory. It seemed that they were also going out together.
Hearing the noise behind them, several people looked back.
They had already gotten to know each other from their experience at the police station yesterday. Their shared experience of being at the police station had made their relationship quite harmonious, so they naturally had to say hello when they met.
"Sui Zhiqing, are you going out?" It was Li Xiuzhu who spoke.
Sui Xin responded, "Yes, I'm planning to go to the county post office to send a letter home to let them know I'm safe. Where are you going?"
Another educated youth named Shen Chunyan replied, "What a coincidence! We're going to the county too. Let's go together."
Sui Xin quickened his pace and met up with them.
Shen Chunyan asked, "How does it feel to live on your own? No one will disturb you. Did you sleep well last night?"
Sui Xin had just met them yesterday and was unsure if Shen Chunyan meant anything else, so she replied, “It’s okay. I was too tired last night. I chose a room and went to sleep right away.
How about you, are the old educated youth easy to get along with?"
When Sui Xin said this, Li Xiuzhu and Shen Chunyan looked a little unhappy.
It was Shen Chunyan who spoke up again: "There was a female educated youth living in our room before. I heard that she was not clean and was kicked out of the old courtyard.
Now in the old courtyard, there are five people living in the room where the female educated youth lived.
Originally, the two compounds were provided for free accommodation for the educated youth, and one room was spacious enough for four people to sleep in, but the five female educated youth would rather squeeze in than live with her.
Moreover, in the beginning, one courtyard was occupied by female educated youth, and the other courtyard was occupied by male educated youth. Because of this female educated youth, the other educated youth refused to live with her no matter what, which led to the current situation, with half male educated youth and half female educated youth living in one courtyard.
When we entered the room last night, she was already asleep, lying on the kang.
She made room for us when she heard us coming, but there were dried sweet potatoes and spilled porridge on the kang. The three of us spent a long time cleaning it up, and she was fast asleep next to us.
Li Xiuzhu also complained, "I wonder how she could sleep at all. We were making quite a bit of noise cleaning up, but she acted as if she didn't hear anything. She slept so peacefully."
Wang Wen, who had been silent the entire time and was usually quiet, couldn't help but interrupt: "Only she could live alone with two male educated youths without fear of any danger.
If it were any other female educated youth, she would have been drowned in spit."
