"Yueyue is right, Wang Zhiqing, the food is almost ready. You can wash your hands and eat now." Huang Xinrui said, opening the pot lid, and a fragrant aroma wafted out.
Ever since Zhao Xiaoli made fun of them, she dared not call him Brother Wang anymore, for fear of causing trouble.
The aroma was so enticing that Wang Jiaxing immediately went to wash his hands.
A pot of rice with sweet potatoes, a plate of hot and sour shredded potatoes, a bowl of pork liver and cabbage soup, and a bowl of stir-fried lung slices.
Wang Jiaxing sat at the table, looking at the food that was even better than what he ate during the New Year. He was so moved that his eyes reddened. "You've gone to so much trouble."
How much will this cost?
"No need to spend money. My aunt gave me the pig liver and lungs. She said it was 36 cents a set, and I didn't need a coupon." Huang Xinrui served him a bowl of rice.
"You welcomed us this morning, and now it's our turn to thank you for your care and help."
Wang Jiaxing said, "I'll eat more sweet potatoes, and I'll leave the rice for you."
“I made a lot, enough to eat,” Li Xiyue stopped him.
Huang Xinrui also said, "Wang Zhiqing, eat as much as you want, there's plenty for you."
Wang Jiaxing didn't stand on ceremony and picked up his chopsticks to start eating.
The rice was fragrant and soft, and the sweet potatoes were sweet and delicious. Paired with vegetables, it was so delicious that you would want to swallow your tongue.
"Xinrui, this lung slices are delicious. Your cooking skills are really good." Li Xiyue had never tasted such delicious pig lung before, and she couldn't help but praise it.
Huang Xinrui was overjoyed. "My mom taught me how to make it, and I love it. We'll buy it again next time; it's not expensive anyway."
Li Xiyue said, "I'll pay next time."
“I’ll treat you next time. You made me fifty yuan, so I have to treat you,” Huang Xinrui said slyly.
Wang Jiaxing raised his hand, "Next time I'll treat, I'll make twenty too."
Li Xiyue laughed, "So it turns out I don't have to do anything or spend any money, and I'm just freeloading."
“We’re happy to let you eat for free.” Huang Xinrui smiled at Wang Jiaxing. “Right, Wang Zhiqing?”
Wang Jiaxing nodded in agreement: "Yes!"
"Hahaha……"
Joyful laughter echoed from the educated youth settlement.
This was the happiest day for Wang Jiaxing in many years.
It's great that they came. It's lively now, the food is better, and most importantly, the villagers' attitude towards him has improved a lot.
When he went to work this afternoon, everyone was not as cold and distant towards him as before.
Over the years, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change everyone's views on educated youth. As soon as they arrived, the villagers' attitudes changed.
He believed that the villagers would be able to wholeheartedly accept them, the educated youth, in the future.
Three people, one pot of rice, and three dishes were all eaten clean, and everyone was burping with satisfaction.
For Wang Jiaxing, this was the most he had eaten in many years, and he was extremely satisfied.
After eating and drinking their fill, the three of them went back to their respective rooms to wash up and prepare for bed. They had to start work tomorrow and get up at five o'clock, so they needed to go to bed early.
"By the way, I heard some educated youth are coming today. Brother Wang, could you please pick them up?" Li Xiyue said.
Wang Jiaxing had also heard about this from the brigade leader. "You guys go to sleep. I'll wait for the new educated youth."
It's really strange; either no new educated youth come for several years, or they come in batches.
Hopefully, the new educated youth will be as easy to get along with as Li Xiyue and Huang Xinrui. If another troublemaker like Zhao Xiaoli comes along, life will be even more difficult.
"Li Zhiqing, Li Zhiqing!" Li Xiyue had just returned to the house when she heard an urgent shout from outside the courtyard.
Li Xiyue hurried out the door and saw that it was Xu Guoqiang. She asked in confusion, "Captain, what's the matter so late?"
"Come with me quickly, something has happened to Da Shan's wife."
