Chapter 15(1/2)

Zhao Ke knew how heavy his hands were and asked slightly awkwardly: "How are your arms?"

"It's okay." Fu Hangxu held his arm and said in his usual voice, "Did I scare you? Sorry, I heard you talking to Zhuang Zhiqing, so I planned to follow you back from a distance."

Zhao Ke said politely: "Thank you, but you can tell me."

Fu Hang said: "We are not familiar with each other. If I rashly offer to send it away, you may feel offended."

After he said this, he added: "I am just out of education. I will give it to someone else today, but I didn't consider it carefully. I'm sorry."

There are limits to being cold, but there is warmth to helping the weak.

He apologized twice in a row, and Zhao Ke had no reason to blame him.

And after all, she beat an innocent person, but she still felt a little guilty, so she said to Fu Hang: "My house is almost here. Fu Zhiqing, please wait for a while, and I will get you a bottle of safflower oil."

Fu Hang declined politely, "It's not serious."

Zhao Ke insisted, "No matter how severe it is, I will take it."

Zhao Ke trotted home, took a bottle of safflower oil from the drawer in her house, and trotted back again.

Fu Hang waited honestly where he was.

Zhao Ke handed him safflower oil.

Fu Hang thanked him.

Zhao Ke apologized again for hitting him just now, to avoid endless polite greetings, and quickly said goodbye and separated.

Fu Hang watched her get home safely before returning to the educated youth spot.

Zhao Feng stood waiting at the door of his house. When he saw Zhao Ke coming back, he asked: "Second sister, what were you doing when you came in and out just now?"

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Zhao Feng replied: "I'll wait for you."

Zhao Ke yawned and made arrangements directly: "Get more water to prepare tomorrow morning."

Zhao Feng agreed and said diligently: "You go to bed quickly, I have a good eye for work."

In the end, the door to Zhao Ke's house was closed, and Zhao Feng didn't know what she was doing. He even forgot what he had asked.

Zhao Feng was indeed very discerning in his work. When Zhao Ke got up the next day, he had already fetched water, sat in the yard, washed the quilt and the father and son's clothes, and heated hot water for Zhao Ke alone.

"Second sister, get up. Go and wash your face. I'll bring you food."

After Zhao Ke washed up and ate in the kitchen, Zhao Feng started wiping inside and outside again.

Zhao Ke washed the clothes by hand for an hour and a half, and Zhao Feng moved from the back room to the main room, wiping every corner clean.

Zhao Ke took the broom, but Zhao Feng stopped her and said, "Second sister, just clean up your own house."

Zhao Ke has nothing to be ashamed of, she is just such a useless sister.

So at the end of the day, Zhao Feng worked hard and took care of all the work he could do, without any slack at all.

Zhao Ke... has eaten his food.

The younger brother has been trained well and the older sister has no worries.

In the evening, Zhao Yunyun, the God of Ear Reports, went to Zhao Ke's house again. This time she asked for information and did not call her Zhao Ke.

"This educated young man named Zhuang is more popular with the children than the one named Hu, and he is more attentive in his lectures, but I think they are not as good as you."

"Zhuang Zhiqing also taught according to my elder sister's lesson preparation book. How big of a difference can it make?" Zhao Ke thought she had a relationship filter.

"No, it's just..." Zhao Yunyun tried hard to describe it, and after a while she clapped her hands and said, "You are more relaxed, which sounds comfortable."

She said that... Zhao Ke thought immodestly, maybe it's true.

There is no part about voting for teachers in the novel. The eldest sister Zhao Mian and Li Dasheng fell in love and still taught step by step. When she married to the Licun production team six months later, the teacher position became vacant and was directly filled by Hu Hezhi.

Zhuang Lan was still actively working hard to integrate into the production team at this time, and did not find that the production team was very xenophobic.

The decisions and developments of each of them are based on the choices made at the moment.

Zhao Ke is different. She knows that the college entrance examination will be resumed, so she must be more calm in her mentality.

"You can definitely be chosen." Zhao Yunyun said with determination and excitement, "Today everyone is praising you both in words and in words. You are calm and smart, you know a lot and you are generous..."

If she continued to praise her, Zhao Ke would get upset and interrupt: "Did someone lose something?"

Zhao Yunyun was stuck for a second before catching up with her topic, "Everyone said nothing was lost. Maybe Chen San'er went out yesterday and didn't steal anything?"

Chen San'er is a very slippery person. He never engages in petty theft and doesn't steal things from the production team. I don't know why in the novel he "plays a gangster" with female educated youths.

Is it because of love?

Zhao Kejiao's fleeting thought made his skin crawl. He trembled unbearably and changed the topic again.

Zhao Yunyun will also go mushroom picking with them tomorrow and will stay and sleep with Zhao Ke at night.

Turning around, the three of them each carried a basket and went out.

A few minutes' walk from her home to the east of the village, she met several village girls who wanted to go pick wild vegetables with them. Even after walking half a mile, there were still people chasing after her.

Must have a big mouth.

Zhao Ke looked at Zhao Yunyun, but Zhao Yunyun avoided her sight.

There was a girl with an oval face and thin eyebrows. When she noticed the dispute between the two of them, she raised her eyebrows and pinched her waist, "What? You are not willing to take us to play? Then we won't vote for you the day after tomorrow?"

"

"Sister Ping, how can you do that?" Zhao Ke begged for mercy and made the girls happy, "We are so good. If you don't vote for me, I will vote for someone else. If you vote for someone else, I will have to go to your house and block the door."

The girls laughed and said, "Then you come to block it~"

"It's so tight, no one can escape."

A group of unmarried girls were chattering and laughing. The only man, Zhao Feng, was walking on the side of the road, feeling extremely uncomfortable and his expression was always blank.

He didn't want this either, but they were discussing next to him——

"Zhao Ke, did you hit your brother again?"

"Xiao Feng is quite handsome, but his brain is not working well."

"It doesn't matter if your brain doesn't work well. In our production team, as long as you are strong and energetic, you won't have to worry about finding a partner."

"How about that? What if I beat you too much and I become even more stupid..."

Zhao Feng: "..."

So why does he like Zhuang Zhiqing? Because the girls in the village make him have no boyish fantasies at all.

They did not treat him as a man who was about to come of age and could get married, and even directly whispered about him in their ears.

Zhao Feng let out a long sigh.

On this day, Zhao Ke and the others were chatting, picking wild vegetables, and playing fish by the river. They were very happy to the naked eye.

As for Zhao Feng, apart from being ridiculed, he was completely a marginal figure and a tool. He was even more tired than yesterday's cleaning.

When he finally returned, Zhao Ke grabbed his arm and without even looking at him, ordered: "You carry the fish bucket."

Zhao Feng wished he could reach home in one step and lie down in two steps, with a big smile, "Okay, give me the fishing net too."

It really doesn't look very smart.

They first went back to Zhao Ke's house to share the fish.

The fish were not big, the largest ones were about a handful long, and most of them were half the size of a palm. If they were too small, they were all thrown back into the river.

They divided the fish equally, then each went home and gave two or three fish to the neighbors to try.

Zhao Ke has led his children to do this since he was a child. If he gets more fruits and vegetables, he will get a share. If he doesn't get a share this time, he will get a share next time. The rain and dew will be shared equally. He is very sophisticated in the world.

Therefore, almost no one in the production team has any objections to them going to the mountains and rivers to hunt for wild food, and they have become accustomed to it by now.

However, Zhao Ke didn't know that Zhao Yunyun left Zhao's house with a few girls and talked quietly for a while. Then when they delivered fish from house to house, they would mention Zhao Ke in and out of their conversation, but he didn't leave anything behind.

Zhao Ke will go to the commune today and work at home.

She planned to stay in the eldest sister's dormitory for one night and pick up Zhao Mian early tomorrow morning to save time.

In addition to the fish, mushrooms and wild vegetables she left for home, she packed them all and tied them on the car seat. She even boiled a few eggs given by Accountant Niu and took them to the commune.

When Zhao Ke arrived at the commune, he first gave fish and wild vegetables to Xiao Wen and several eldest ladies in the cafeteria.

Everyone's living conditions are generally not good, materials are scarce, and no one dislikes things from the countryside. Zhao Ke is so generous, so naturally the elder sisters are very enthusiastic.

They all told Zhao Ke about Zhao Mian's situation in the factory, and said that they would definitely take care of her sister. Sister Cui, who had the best relationship with her, even gave Zhao Ke some things from home as a gift in return.

Zhao Ke declined, but accepted after being unable to do so, "If I get anything in the countryside, I will bring it to you next time I come to the commune."

"I can't always ask for it in vain. I'll buy it with money." After Sister Cui finished speaking, the more she thought about it, the more she thought it would work. "I trust you and I'm not afraid to tell you that my sister-in-law is in the county. She can't buy anything without a ticket, so she secretly goes to the black market.

I’m still scared, why don’t I buy it with you, what do you think?”

Zhao Ke had no intention of doing this business, but he had no reason to refuse to generate income, so he thought carefully and said: "We use it for our own use. I can pay for it for you. If someone discovers it, it makes sense, but too much is not enough."

Sister Cui understood, "I don't worry about you. I won't tell others about it, and I can't make fun of my own work."
