Chapter 289
The Educated Youth Point is located on the easternmost side of the brigade, backed by mountains, a bit far away from other homes in the brigade, and relatively quiet.
The environment of the compound for educated youth is not as bad as written in the book. At least it is similar to the houses of other commune members in the village. They are all adobe houses. Compared with those in the city, the yard is larger.
All the educated youths in the courtyard have just returned from work. Some are washing clothes, some are cooking, and everyone is busy with their own things.
Ning Xiyue only saw three educated youths, two gay men and one lesbian, but not Ning Xiaoxiao.
Seeing the captain and his people coming, Zhao Jianshe, the big brother of the educated youth spot, came over with a smile: "Captain, this is the new educated youth who came today."
"Well, construction, you and Comrade Guifang can help make arrangements." Zhang Dawei looked around but didn't see Comrade Wu Guifang: "Where is Comrade Guifang?"
"Captain." Wu Guifang came over carrying a hoe.
"Comrade Guifang, come here quickly. These are the new educated youths. You two should make arrangements for each other, and then tell them the basic situation in the educated youth camp, as well as the issue of rations."
After the captain finished speaking, he dismissed the boss and drove the ox cart away, leaving everything to these two people.
Maybe this happens all the time, and Comrades Zhao Jianshe and Wu Guifang are used to it.
The two of them each led the male and female educated youth towards the educated youth compound.
Wu Guifang dutifully explained things to the four new educated youths.
There are currently three male educated youths and three female educated youths living in this educated youth courtyard. Together with their group, there are a total of thirteen educated youths, six males and seven females.
The cold Educated Youth Academy suddenly became lively.
"It's a coincidence that you are here, just in time for the autumn harvest. You can still get food after the autumn harvest. During this period, you can find ways to buy or borrow some rations from the commune members. But I suggest you go to the brigade to borrow some food to save trouble and money.
, it will be deducted directly with work points at the end of the year. Your rations for today and tomorrow will be sent over by the captain later. How will you look after yourself later?"
"There is only one kitchen. It depends on whether you are willing to find someone to cook together or do it alone."
Comrade Wu Guifang explained some basic information and then pointed to the house behind her and said:
"The row on the left is where male educated youths live. The row of houses on the right is where we female educated youths live. The houses are tight. Two people live in one room. You can make your own choice. I'll be busy first. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me.
.”
After saying that, Comrade Wu Guifang left to make dinner.
Liu Yao looked at everyone at a loss: "How do we choose?"
"Let's share a room." Wang Mengmeng said first.
She doesn't like Chen Yechu and thinks she's very pretentious, but Ning Xiyue can be seen from the moment she's on the train that she's a ruthless character who shouldn't be messed with and will definitely be difficult to get along with. On the whole, Liu Yao is a silly girl who is cheerful all day long.
Easy to get along with.
"Okay, how about we share a room and Xiyue and Ye Chu share a room?" Liu Yao looked at Chen Yechu and Ning Xiyue for advice.
"Um."
Ning Xiyue didn't have any problem with it, as long as she wasn't in the same room as Ning Xiaoxiao.
Chen Yechu liked this assignment very much. She thought Ning Xiyue was smart, would not cause trouble, and was a nice person, so she nodded in agreement.
There was no difference between the remaining two rooms, so I randomly chose the room on the right of Ning Xiyue and Chen Yechu, and the room on the left of Wang Mengmeng and Liu Yao.
After everything was divided, Ning Xiyue and Chen Yechu walked into the room and started to clean up.
One sweeps the floor and the other wipes the dust. They are all quick workers. In just a few steps, the room is tidy and the bed is made.
Comrade Wu Guifang, who came to see the situation, was a little surprised when she saw that the two of them had done everything. The two newly arrived female educated youths looked like they were well-dressed and well-off, but they didn't expect to be so good at work.
They seem to be honest and hard-working people, and my affection for these two people has doubled.
Ning Xiyue saw the figure at the door, took out two candies from her bag and handed them over, and asked with a smile: "Sister Guifang, my name is Ning Xiyue, I would like to ask if we can use all the things in the kitchen.
?”
When Wu Guifang saw the two fruit candies in her hand, the smile on her face became more sincere and she spoke in detail.
"The kitchen utensils are shared and you can all use them as you like. If you want to cook with us, you will need to pay for the salt and oil. We will take turns cooking and collecting firewood. You can do it yourself."
To make it, you need to buy oil and salt yourself.”
Wu Guifang leaned into Ning Xiyue's ear and whispered: "Be sure to lock these things after you use them, and never leave them outside."
"Thank you, Sister Guifang, you are so kind."
Wu Guifang waved her hand: "It's okay. We will all live together as sisters from now on. If you have anything to ask me, I will tell you what I know. By the way, did you bring some oil and salt? If not, I can lend you some."
Wu Guifang felt that the girl in front of her was quite generous. She was not the kind of person who liked to take advantage. She was not the kind of person Ning Xiaoxiao said she could interact with.
"I brought it." Ning Xiyue smiled and nodded.
At this time, the people in the queue brought them rations.
Ning Xiyue took her rations and marked them, and Chen Yechu did the same.
Today, the old educated youths have already started cooking, and the newcomers have to figure out how to fix dinner by themselves.
Several other people were tired and planned to eat dry food to deal with it.
Ning Xiyue didn't want to deal with it simply, so she grabbed a handful of rice and planned to steam it.
Chen Yechu took his share of rations and came out and said, "Xiyue, let's cook this meal together and make it faster."
"Okay, let's go, they just finished steaming the rice and freed up the pot."
Ning Xiyue also wanted to eat quickly, so she ate some dry food at noon. She was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back. It would be much faster for two people to cook together, especially for wood stoves, which still require an experienced hand like the heroine.
Come faster.
While Ning Xiyue and Chen Yechu were busy in the kitchen, Wu Guifang came in with a cabbage in her hand.
"Xiyue, let me bring you some vegetables. I grew them myself. You can fry them later."
Wu Guifang put down the dishes and walked outside.
"Sister Guifang, thank you."
Ning Xiyue patted the cabbage in her hand, feeling that the two candies she gave her were really worth it.
Chen Yechu looked at Baocai with a somewhat complicated look.
Ning Xiyue guessed that she didn't expect Sister Guifang to give her a cabbage so generously.
Next, Chen Yechu came up with the oil, and Ning Xiyue came out with the seasoning. Both of them were willing to use the ingredients, and they fried a portion of cabbage until it was full of color, flavor and flavor, and the whole educated youth spot could smell it.
The educated youth who had just returned from work smelled the fragrance in the air and asked: "What did you cook today? Why does it smell so good?"
"Hmm, it smells so good." Ning Xiaoxiao sniffed hard from behind, and followed the educated youth in front to walk quickly towards the place to eat, fearing that she would not be able to eat well if she went too late.
Unexpectedly, Ning Xiyue came out of the kitchen next door with a plate of cabbage and met the two people who came over.
Ning Xiyue raised the corners of her lips when she saw the person behind her:
Chapter completed!
