After nearly a month of absence, the Educated Youth Institute has also undergone some changes.

Because these days are the Chinese New Year, red lanterns have been hung up in the yard, and couplets have been pasted. You can tell from the handwriting that it was written by Chen Yechu, so it looks a bit like the New Year.

When Ning Xiyue returned to the Educated Youth Academy, all the educated youths in the Educated Youth Academy were gathering around the courtyard with candles and doing something seriously.

"Xiyue, you are back."

Chen Yechu was the first to see Ning Xiyue pushing the cart in. He put down the bamboo pole in his hand and came over with a smile.

When other male educated youths saw Ning Xiyue coming back, they smiled and said hello.

"I'm back. Happy New Year everyone." Ning Xiyue nodded with a smile and greeted everyone back.

Liu Yao and Wang Mengmeng also put down their things and walked over. They were dressed in red and looked particularly festive.

"Xiyue, I haven't seen you for a month and I miss you so much." Liu Yao walked over and took Ning Xiyue's arm.

"I miss you too, what are you doing?"

Ning Xiyue looked at the tools in the yard curiously, looking like she was making fishing rods.

Zhao Jianshe replied while weaving a fishing net bag with twisted thick hemp rope: "We are making fishing gear, sewing net bags, and are ready to catch fish in the river outside the team."

"Xiyue, you don't know, the big river over there has been frozen. There are many people on the team digging holes to catch fish. I've seen it, it's very fat."

As Liu Yao spoke, she gestured with the size of the fish with her hands, an exaggerated expression on her face.

"We just thought about getting some to eat. If there are more, we can make some dried pickled fish and save them for later."

Chen Yechu picked up the fishing rod on the ground again and tied it with a fishing line. He looked at Ning Xiyue and asked, "Xiyue, why don't you follow us to make a fishing rod? Let's go fishing tomorrow. There are many people on the river and it's quite lively."

Xiyue heard the word "lively" and agreed without thinking.

"Yes, if you can catch fish, you can also add a meal. I haven't gone fishing in winter yet. I hope I can catch fish."

Places with many people are more attractive to her, she just likes lively places.

After being away from the team for such a long time, if you want to know what happened in the team this month, the best way is to go to the most lively place and have a chat.

Well, she definitely doesn't want to make up for this month's gossip, she just wants to integrate into the group and miss her aunts, that's it.

"Brother, are we going together?"

Ning Xiyue asked her second brother behind her. Her second brother seemed to be quite good at fishing. When he was a child, he often went to the river outside the city to catch fish and bring home fish.

"Okay, there is nothing to do anyway, fishing is not bad." Ning Qingyuan didn't care. As long as his sister wanted to do it, he would accompany him and reminded: "Sister, wear more clothes tomorrow, it will be cold for fishing."

Liu Yaoke was happy, clasped her hands and laughed: "Great, Xiyue, put your things down and follow us to make fishing rods."

Ning Qingyuan was the first to answer for his sister: "There is no need to do that. I still have two fishing rods and net bags made last year. I will bring them over tomorrow."

"Then Xiyue doesn't have to do it." Liu Yao suddenly thought that his own was not ready yet, so he hurriedly turned around and picked up his own bamboo pole for fishing rods and cut off the branches: "I have to make my own fishing rod soon."

At this time, Ning Xiyue smelled the aroma of food, looked over and saw Yu Zhiyu and Comrade Wang Jianshe carrying the food out and walking towards the dining room.

"It's time to eat. Let's pack up and eat." Wu Guifang came out of the kitchen and shouted loudly. When she saw Ning Xiyue, she waved happily: "Hey, Xiyue is back, come over and eat together."

"Guifang, you guys eat. Xiyue wants to go to my house to eat. I won't bother you anymore. Eat slowly."

Before Ning Xiyue could refuse, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her and answered politely.

By the candlelight, Ning Xiyue could clearly see the figure walking behind her: "Aunt Huaihua? Why are you here."

The son was found. Now Aunt Huaihua’s face was red and she said with a cheerful smile:

"Xiyue, you and your second brother quickly put away your luggage and go to my house for dinner. I will wait for you here. You can't refuse. You must eat this meal."

Aunt Huaihua was afraid that Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan would refuse again, so she even moved the dogs out.

"Goudan also helped light the fire and said he would cook it for his sister Xiyue and his brother. While he was lighting the fire, he was at home looking forward to your visit."

Aunt Huaihua mentioned this, so of course Ning Xiyue would not refuse anymore. She and her second brother looked at each other and nodded in agreement: "Okay, aunt, please wait a moment, I will put it down and come back."

"Hey, okay, Auntie is waiting for you here, don't be in a hurry, take your time."

Aunt Huaihua found a chair and sat down to wait.

Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan quickly pushed their bicycles to the kitchen at the back. They temporarily put the two bicycles and luggage in the kitchen, locked the door and followed Aunt Huaihua home for dinner.

There were quite a lot of people sitting in the courtyard of Aunt Huaihua's house. The members of the brigade who had helped find the dog eggs were all there, and they were all invited to dinner by Aunt Huaihua's family to express their gratitude.

Aunt Huaihua walked into the yard and started shouting to the kitchen: "Goudan, your sister Xiyue and brother Qingyuan are here, come out quickly."

"coming."

Goudan ran out with a piece of crystal-clear, fat and thin bacon in one hand, and ran up to Ning Xiyue in the blink of an eye, holding up the meat in his hand like a treasure.

One piece was held in front of Ning Xiyue, and the other was held in front of Ning Qingyuan. They grinned happily, with expectations in their eyes, and tiptoed forward.

"Sister Xiyue, brother Qingyuan eat meat."

"Okay, thank you Goudan."

Ning Xiyue half-bent down, lowered her head, and moved her mouth to Gou Dan to feed Gou Dan. After eating a piece of smoked bacon, Ning Xiyue touched Gou Dan's head and praised: "Well, it tastes really good."

Goudan smiled happily after hearing this, and moved his expectant eyes to Ning Qingyuan, waiting for his answer.

Ning Qingyuan was so cute by Goudan and liked the child very much. He knelt down and looked at Goudan before saying with a smile:

"Thank you Goudan for the meat. It's delicious. It's the best meat my brother has ever tasted."

Although he was talking about meat, Goudan thought he was praising himself and laughed out loud with joy. Then he quickly ran into the kitchen without saying a word.

When Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan were wondering, Goudan ran out with a plate of bacon and handed it to them with a smile.

Aunt Huaihua ran out after her and saw that her son had brought the meat in front of Ning Xiyue, and then she felt relieved and returned to the kitchen.

Ning Xiyue: "..."

Ning Qingyuan: shocked face

This, this kid is too honest.

Ning Xiyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly stopped Goudan from pushing a plate of meat to her.

They were just compliments, not cheating. This kid really didn't treat them as outsiders and even brought the plates to them.

"Goudan, my sister and brother don't want to eat. You go and put the meat away for your mother. Let's play in the yard together for a while."

Goudan insisted on handing it over at first, but Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan persuaded Goudan to put the meat back. They felt relieved when he handed the meat to Aunt Huaihua.

During the meal, Aunt Huaihua specially placed the plate of bacon in front of Ning Xiyue and her two siblings, and warmly greeted them to eat.

Uncle An Guo went even further. He placed several bowls of hard vegetables in front of them, for fear that they would not be able to eat the meat.

When they were leaving after eating, Aunt Huaihua hurriedly came out of the kitchen and stopped Ning Xiyue. She stuffed something into her arms. It was a piece of stuff wrapped in many scrap newspapers. It was hard to the touch.

"Aunt Huaihua, what is this?"

Ning Xiyue held the things in her hands helplessly and looked at Aunt Huaihua and Uncle An Guo who came out to see them off with blank eyes.

Aunt Huaihua waved her hand nonchalantly and did not answer: "It was specially wrapped for you. You can take it back and look at it."

Ning Xiyue took a look at the newspaper and seemed to smell a faint smell on the tip of her nose, as if she knew what was inside.

It's nothing else but the smell of smoked bacon.

She pushed the things in her hands back and said, "Auntie, there's no need for that. We're all on the same team, so there's no need to be so polite."

"Yes, you're welcome. Then, Xiyue girl, just take it without being polite." Uncle An Guo nodded along with her words, pushed the thing back and pretended to be angry: "Uncle will be angry if you don't take it." ωωw.

After rejecting it for a few times, Ning Xiyue reluctantly accepted it. She quickly said goodbye and pulled her second brother back, not to stay for a while before Uncle An Guo and his wife stuffed other things.

This is a meal that you can eat and take with you.

Back at the Educated Youth Home, Ning Xiyue opened the layers of newspapers, and inside was indeed a piece of smoked bacon.

Ning Qingyuan was stunned when he saw this piece of meat: "What? Shouldn't we praise the dog's balls and praise the deliciousness of the meat?"

"Too enthusiastic." Ning Xiyue covered her face.

There are still fresh cuts at the incision, and looking at the texture of the meat, I can confirm that Aunt Huaihua gave her the remaining bacon.
