"Do you want to go back by jeep or bicycle?" Song Zhe asked Su Tian.
Su Tian covered her mouth and laughed, "I want to take the big cart back."
"Okay, wait a moment."
Song Zhe drove up and got out to open the car door for Su Tian.
Su Tian got into the car, and he closed the door.
They then drove towards Songjia Village. When they were about ten meters away from the village entrance, Su Tian told him to stop the car.
"We haven't even arrived yet, why are you stopping?"
"I'm afraid the villagers will gossip if they see this."
Song Zhe got out of the car and opened the door for Su Tian to get out.
"Am I really that shameful?" Song Zhe looked at Su Tian with a doubtful gaze.
Su Tian looked at the man in front of her and said with a smile, "No, you go back first. I want to watch you leave."
Song Zhe was a little confused, but he still obediently got into the car.
"I'm leaving, goodbye."
"Okay, goodbye." Su Tian waved to him.
How could she take the bicycle out of her spatial storage if she didn't let him go first?
If the villagers saw her returning in a man's car, how would she explain it? She didn't want the hassle, so she told Song Zhe to leave first.
Su Tian glanced around; no one was there, good. She quickly took the bicycle out of her spatial storage and rode it back to the educated youth settlement.
There was no one at the educated youth settlement; both the old and new educated youth had to go to work today. She pushed her car to the door of her room and parked it.
I pushed open the door to my room and lay down for a while. Remembering that I hadn't fed my old hen, I checked my online storage.
"Oh my, the rice is ripe, that's wonderful."
She quickly called out "harvest!" and the rice was harvested automatically. She then found a dozen or so burlap sacks, and the rice instantly went into the sacks.
Su Tian took a bowl of rice to feed the old hen and picked up two eggs along the way.
Song Zhe drove back to the police station in less than twenty minutes, where Lu Yu saw his good brother return.
He walked up to him and asked, "Where was Su Tian, a sent-down youth, working?"
"In Songjia Village." After saying that, he walked into the office first.
"Songjia Village? Isn't that the village where Lu Xiao and his group went to the countryside?"
Song Zhe didn't say anything. He didn't care where others went to the countryside; he only cared about the people he cared about.
He Hua was also wandering around the town at this time. Early in the morning, she pretended to be sick and asked the brigade leader for leave, saying that she was going to town to see a doctor.
Then she finally found a small shop selling date rape drugs. The shop owner was an old man with a strange look in his eyes.
He Hua asked nervously, "Boss, do you have any medicine that helps with sleep?"
"No, only sleeping pills."
"Give me a small bag then," He Hua whispered to the old man.
The old man glanced at her, silently took out a packet of powder and handed it to her, saying, "Take a little of this medicine and you'll sleep until dawn. Don't take too much."
He Hua took the powder, paid, and left in a hurry.
As she walked, she pondered how to get Chen Gang to take the drug.
She had an idea. She went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a lunchbox, then went to the state-run restaurant to get a braised pork dish, and also bought two steamed buns, which cost her sixty cents. She felt heartbroken.
While eating her steamed bun, she suppressed her heartache and walked to the big tree, where she spent another penny to get on the oxcart.
"He Zhiqing, what delicious food did you buy this time?" Aunt Zhang asked.
"Oh, I only bought two steamed buns."
When Aunt Zhang heard that it was steamed buns, she fell silent.
He Hua smiled and didn't say anything more.
After a bumpy ride, we finally arrived at the village.
She first went back to the educated youth dormitory to put her things away, then went to Chen Gang's room and said, "Brother Chen Gang, I just brought back some braised pork from town. Would you like to have dinner with me tonight?"
Chen Gang, lying in bed, heard He Hua's words and quickly replied, "Okay, call me when the rice is cooked."
He had no choice but to agree; he had been eating plain porridge and dried radish for a long time and hadn't even had an egg.
He hadn't eaten meat for several days since he learned that Zou Daying had gone to town to take care of the children.
Thinking that he could eat meat tonight, his mood instantly brightened.
Because He Hua took a day off, she didn't need to go to work in the afternoon.
While everyone else got up at three o'clock to go to work, she sat in her room waiting for it to be time to cook.
As time slowly passed, her anxiety grew.
To avoid competing with other educated youth who came back to cook for the stove, she started preparing at five o'clock.
By six o'clock, she had already prepared the meal.
Zhao Liguo, who shares a dormitory with Chen Gang, had to take leave yesterday to go home because of family matters, and he won't be back for several days.
That's why she managed to take the day off today and went to town to buy sleeping pills.
As darkness fell, He Hua waited anxiously.
Finally, Chen Gang's voice came from outside the door; he had just returned from work.
"Brother Chen Gang, why don't we bring the food to your dorm and eat together? It's not convenient for me here."
"Okay." It doesn't matter where we eat, as long as there's food available.
The two of them carried the food and dishes into Chen Gang's dormitory, and He Hua kindly closed the door behind them.
The people at the educated youth settlement were used to it and didn't say much.
Chen Gang looked at the pumpkin, braised pork, and a plate of green beans on the table, but said nothing.
"Hey, Brother Chen Gang, let me get you some food."
Chen Gang looked at the attentive He Hua with a blank expression, but inwardly he was very pleased: Why do all these women love him so much? It's just a pity that he only loves those who can help him.
He Hua warmly invited him to sit down and handed him the lunchbox, saying, "Brother Chen Gang, this is braised pork that I bought especially for you. Please try it."
