Chen Erlaizi was taking a nap at home when he heard a woman talking. Thinking he had misheard, he secretly got up, stood at the door of the room, and peeked through the crack.
When Old Lady Chen saw the little girl's expression, she knew she had succeeded.
The two of them didn't go out and started cooking dinner in the kitchen.
When Chen Erlaizi saw the girl following her mother in and out of the yard, he couldn't help but feel moved again. The young educated youth living in the Meng family was too fierce and he couldn't afford to offend her.
The one who came to my house today is also pretty good. Her figure is much better than that young educated youth.
At the educated youth compound, Li Yan and her colleagues returned to the compound after work. When it was time to cook, Zhang Yan had not returned yet.
Wu Lili said angrily: "Everyone works, but she doesn't want to cook and hides away."
At first, they all thought that Zhang Yan was just a little lazy, and if they gave her some time, she would become more diligent over time. Unexpectedly, she became more and more excessive and didn't even come back to cook.
Zhang Hongyang also sighed. As the leader of the educated youth team, he couldn't even manage the people in the compound. Although he had been trying to smooth things over, after a long time, he himself began to have opinions.
Zhang Yan did not return to the educated youth compound until after dinner, when he had eaten and drunk his fill.
She walked in happily, but she didn't expect that everyone was waiting for her.
Zhang Hongyang asked, "Comrade Zhang Yan, where did you go after work? Don't you know the rules for educated youth? You're not allowed to casually interact with fellow villagers. If you go to a fellow villager's home, that's a violation of the rules."
Wu Lili also said: "Yes! If the news gets out, people will think that we educated youth are not disciplined!"
Wu Juan didn't want her cousin to take the lead, so she pulled her sleeve. Among so many people, she was the only one who always spoke too quickly and offended others by stepping forward.
Luo Xiaoxiao has always been at odds with Zhang Yan, and she felt a little unhappy when she heard what Wu Lili said.
"Comrade Wu Lili, what are you talking about? How can you belittle your own people first?"
Wu Lili didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. She snorted and said, "I'm not belittling her. She just had her free time and did something that affects us."
Seeing that they were about to start a quarrel, Zhang Hongyang said, "Comrade Zhang Yan, from now on you must return to the compound immediately after work. This is the rule."
Zhang Yan was furious: "You just can't stand seeing others doing well. What's the matter? Are you unhappy because I'm doing well?"
Ignore them and go back to your room to sleep.
It has been so long, she just wanted to have a full meal today and not waste her energy with them.
At Old Lady Chen's house, Chen Erlaizi hid in the room until the young educated youth left, then he came out happily.
Old Lady Chen brought out the rice and vegetables she had left for her son and said unhappily, "That damn girl ate so fast! If I hadn't been quick, I would have saved some meat for you, but she would have eaten it all."
Chen Erlaizi wanted to laugh, but when he did, his eyes narrowed and it hurt a little, so he hissed in pain.
"Mom, are you attracted to that girl? Otherwise, why would you be willing to cook meat for her?"
Old Mrs. Chen looked disgusted. “That girl eats too much and is hard to feed. If you marry her, our family will lose a lot of food every month. It’s not cost-effective.”
Chen Erlaizi's eyes turned, "Mom, every educated youth has money and food. You can take them when the time comes. You will definitely make a lot of money."
The mother and son are of the same mind and even think of the same bad things.
Old Mrs. Chen said, "I just want to have a grandson as soon as possible. You're already in your twenties or thirties. Other people's families with children your age already have several children. I'm anxious too!"
When Jiang Baige returned home from work, Grandma Meng said to her, "Li Dajun has installed the water tanks and is waiting for you to come back so we can cook."
Jiang Baige responded, "Great, let's cook!"
There was a sound coming from the back door. Jiang Baige thought the child from that family had come again, so she ran over to see.
He almost bumped into Chen Jianguo who was about to enter the door and asked, "Comrade Chen, why are you here?"
Chen Jianguo looked at the top of her head and resisted the urge to rub it.
He hurriedly explained, "I came back early and thought your water tank might be empty, so I filled it up for you. Go ahead and use it! I'll fill it up for you next time."
He spoke as if he knew her very well.
Jiang Baige gritted her teeth and said, "Thank you, I can choose it myself."
Who is she? Why does she enjoy having others fetch water for her? If her mother knew that he was working so hard for her, she would be furious.
Seeing that she was uncomfortable, Chen Jianguo said, "Okay, I'll go back first. If you need anything, remember to call me."
Grandma Meng at the door said, "Jianguo! Sit down for a while and eat before you leave. We're going to make some steamed rice today, so you can stay and have some too."
Jiang Baige showed a surprised expression on her face, and thought to herself: "Grandma Meng, do you know what you are talking about?"
Stay for dinner? Chen Jianguo looked up at the young educated youth and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't be polite."
Grandma Meng smiled and said, "Girl, hurry up and prepare the meal! Didn't you say you wanted to eat potatoes with rice? Hurry up and peel the potatoes."
This old lady acted on her own initiative. Jiang Baige thought to herself, "Hey, what's the point of eating rice? Can you eat white rice and potatoes every day?"
Although I felt uncomfortable, my hands were not idle. I picked up a few potatoes from the ground and prepared to peel them.
Chen Jianguo said, "Let me do it! Where is the kerosene lamp? Light it up."
Today was really going to kill her. Where did they get a kerosene lamp? They had always been using candles.
He took out a candle from the top of the cupboard and lit it with a click of the lighter.
