The people in the fields were working non-stop and had no time to see what the lotus flowers were doing.
After washing her hands and feet by the river, Su Tian hummed a cheerful tune as she walked towards the educated youth settlement.
Su Tian returned to the educated youth settlement, opened the door, and took a sip of warm water. She wanted a Coke, so she searched her spatial storage. Sure enough, she found one, opened it, and took a swig. Ah! So refreshing.
On the way back, she had already decided what she wanted to eat: braised pork with potatoes. After all, harvesting rice was such strenuous work, she couldn't do it without meat.
Su Tian took a few sips of cola and threw it back into her spatial storage; she still wanted to save room for braised pork.
Without further ado, she washed the pot, rinsed the rice, and added water. She lit a fire with dry leaves and added some twigs.
Wash the ceramic pot clean and use it to stew braised pork. Take the pork out of the space, wash it, cut it into pieces, throw it into the pot, stir-fry it over high heat, add salt and soy sauce, and add a little water to stew it.
I peeled two more potatoes, washed them, cut them into chunks, and will add them in once the meat has absorbed the flavor.
After simmering for half an hour, add the potatoes and simmer for another ten minutes before serving.
Ah, it smells so good! Su Tian took a sniff.
"Why do I smell meat?" Zheng Yuanyuan said.
"It must be Su Tian cooking the meat. Okay, it's none of our business if it's their meat. Let's hurry up and cook the rice. They'll be back from work soon," Xie Qiuying said.
The two of them immediately went to fetch water and start cooking, quickly getting to work.
At 7:30, it was finally time to leave work, and the educated youth could faintly smell the aroma of meat.
They all thought they would get to eat meat tonight, but they didn't realize that they were all working, so where would they get meat?
But when they saw the food on the table, they all thought they had smelled something wrong.
"Chen Gang, can you smell it? It smells like meat, it smells like meat."
"It seems so. Let's go, there's meat to eat!" Chen Gang pulled He Hua along as they ran.
When they returned to the educated youth settlement, they saw that there was no meat on the table. That was impossible; they had clearly smelled it.
"Su Tian must be secretly eating something delicious again," He Hua thought, walking up to Su Tian and saying sarcastically, "Su Tian, did you eat meat again tonight?" He Hua asked suspiciously.
Su Tian ignored her and continued reading her book.
Seeing this, He Hua retorted, "I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?"
"What I eat is none of your business. Even if I eat shit, it's none of your concern. Are you looking for a beating? You keep waving your arms around in front of me. Humph, do you want to get slapped?"
"I was just asking you a question, why are you being so fierce?"
"You came once at noon, and now you're here again. I think you're asking for a beating."
"I was just saying, why are you so angry?" After saying that, she fled in a panic. After all, He Hua knew that Su Tian was strong and that her hits hurt a lot.
Seeing this, the other educated youth also gave up their plans, after all, they were also afraid of being beaten.
I initially thought it wasn't right for her to eat alone since she was new here, and I wanted to take advantage of her, but after seeing how He Hua acted, I didn't dare to do it anymore.
Chen Gang looked at the sweet potato rice, a dish of bok choy, and dried radish on the table, feeling a bitter taste in his mouth. Sweet potatoes for lunch and sweet potatoes for dinner—he was getting heartburn from all the eating.
He wanted to eat meat. He looked at Su Tian with pitiful and aggrieved eyes, hoping that Su Tian would notice him, pity him, and take pity on him, so that she would give him something good to eat.
After Su Tian finished criticizing He Hua, she had already closed the door to her room, fearing that someone might come looking for her. She planned to wait until the group of educated youth finished eating before taking a shower and washing her hair.
Seeing Su Tian enter the room, Chen Gang had no choice but to sit down and eat. As he ate the hard-to-swallow sweet potato rice, he secretly vowed that he would definitely find a chance to taste meat.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Chen Gang lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, his mind filled with thoughts of meat.
He decided to sneak into Su Tian's room while she was taking a shower to see if there was any meat left.
Sure enough, he saw Su Tian go to take a shower. He tiptoed to Su Tian's door and found it closed. He twisted the door open.
He was secretly pleased. He glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then gently pushed open the door and went inside. However, there was no trace of meat in the room, only some daily necessities and books.
Just as Chen Gang was feeling disappointed, he suddenly heard footsteps outside. He panicked and hid under the bed, hoping he hadn't been discovered.
However, his heart was beating faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
When Su Tian returned from her shower, she immediately noticed something was wrong.
She put down the wooden basin, squatted down, and discovered the scumbag hiding under the bed.
She dragged Chen Gang out and punched him hard with both fists until he curled up in a groin.
"You dare come to my room? Tell me, what are you doing here?" Su Tian asked while hitting him.
"Stop hitting him, or someone will die. I came in to see if you've got any meat to eat?"
"Meat, you want to eat meat? I'll beat you to death first."
Su Tian punched him for several more minutes, then dragged him out and threw him outside.
