Everyone worked together to temporarily carry a month's supply of food for the seven educated youths to the room where Wanyang and the others lived.
Each educated youth is provided with fifty kilograms of grain per month, of which forty-eight kilograms are coarse grains and only two kilograms of white flour.
This is already very good for them. After all, white flour is very precious in this era. Farmers in the village can only eat some white bread dumplings during the Chinese New Year.
When educated youths go to the countryside to settle down, the state will not only provide them with a year's supply of food, but also give each person a settling-in allowance of 200 yuan.
The two hundred yuan will be distributed directly to the village committee, and then the educated youths will just come and collect it.
Let’s not go into digressions. After Wanyang and the others had settled the food, Li Jidong took out his white flour on the spot, divided it into portions of similar weight, and gave each of Zhang Zhiyong and Uncle Lianggui, who was driving the cattle cart, a cloth bag.
The two simple men pushed Li Jidong hard and did not dare to ask for anything.
"You baby! Do you know how valuable white flour is? How can you just give it to us? Take it back quickly, we don't dare to ask for it! You can keep it for yourselves." The person who spoke was Zhang Zhiyong.
Uncle Lianggui knew the local dialect he spoke, but these educated youths from the city couldn't understand it, so he could only forcefully stuff the bag of flour into Li Jidong's arms without making a sound.
"Uncle Zhiyong, Uncle Lianggui, listen to me! We will be our own people from now on. We don't know any farm work when we first come here. In the future, we will need more care from you and more teachings from you. These white noodles should be treated as our handover in advance.
It’s your tuition, don’t shirk it, take these white noodles home and give them to your family to try.”
Li Jidong took out these white noodles not just for himself. After experiencing today, he finally realized that the village party secretary would not care about them at all, so in the future he would have to rely on Zhang Zhiyong, the village accountant, and Zhang Lianggui, the livestock manager.
One of them is a cadre in the village, and the other is in charge of the transportation to the town. There will definitely be a lot of trouble for them in the future. You have to go out of your way to be wise, otherwise it will be difficult in this village in the future.
However, Li Jidong wanted to leave the world, but he didn't give him a chance at all.
Seeing that they were about to throw the bones in their hands to the ground, Wanyang and Qian Xiaoshuang finished sorting out the cooking ingredients they bought in the town, and when they went out, they saw the scene of Li Jidong and the others.
Wanyang stood aside and listened for a few words, and immediately knew what was going on with them. She stepped forward in two or three steps and stood side by side with Li Jidong, facing Zhang Zhiyong and said: "Uncle Zhiyong and Uncle Lianggui
Since you don’t want to accept it, then we will keep it.”
"Wanyang?" Li Jidong looked at her with disapproval.
Wanyang gave him a worried look and said, "What a big deal! When we get a new residence, I will make a meal of white-flour wild vegetable dumplings for everyone, as a celebration of our first fire in the new residence.
, then we will invite Uncle Zhiyong and the others to come over and eat together."
"Li Jidong, let's just listen to Wanyang's advice and make dumplings. Not only can we celebrate our first fire, but it can also be a welcome party!" Qian Xiaoshuang also came over to echo Wanyang. After she finished speaking to Li Jidong,
Then he turned his eyes to the opposite side, "Uncle Zhiyong, Uncle Lianggui, you all have to come when the time comes! Our joy
If you don’t attend the welcome party, then you don’t mean to welcome us!”
Qian Xiaoshuang said this, how could they refuse?
"Hahaha... you little girl is really good at talking! Yes! For this dumpling meal, I will definitely find you a place to live as soon as possible." Zhang Zhiyong thought of the white flour dumplings and couldn't help but salivate, "Uncle Lianggui
! It seems that we can’t refuse this dumpling meal, so we have to hold a simple welcome party for the children, don’t you think?"
Speaking of which, what kind of thing is this? Zhang Zhiyong was a little speechless. How good these children are!
The higher authorities issued an order asking them, the village cadres, to cooperate with these children in settling down, but the village party secretary actually took over as the boss, leaving these children with no idea what to do.
This was the first time that Zhang Zhiyong felt dissatisfied with Zhang Changfu.
Why can that irresponsible person be the village chief and secretary? Why can't he?
Not only was he irresponsible to these educated youths, but he also treated the villagers in the village in a different way. He had seen Zhang Changfu's dog-like behavior many times.
If a person who is conscientious and conscientious becomes the village chief and secretary.
Then Zhang Zhiyong would say nothing and would never have other thoughts. He would be content to just do a good job as an accountant in peace and stability. But that Zhang Changfu is so outrageous. When he goes back to town for a meeting next time, he must report Zhang Changfu's problems to the top.
Reflect reflect!
When Zhang Lianggui saw that Zhang Zhiyong agreed, he no longer shied away.
However, after agreeing, he hurriedly
He hurriedly drove his bullock cart away. The cows, sheep, and pigs in the cowshed were worth his life. He couldn't see them all afternoon, and he felt panicked.
Zhang Zhiyong saw that it was getting late and left the village committee not long after.
After they agreed to eat dumplings, Li Jidong felt relieved. As long as there was someone in this village to take care of them, he wouldn't feel so unsure.
The three of them saw off the two Zhangs at the door. They looked at each other and smiled. Wanyang took the lead and walked into the yard. "When I was chopping firewood today, I saw a lot of wild vegetables on the mountain. Tomorrow we will
Go get some, we only have food, we can’t do without vegetables."
"I'll go with you!" Qian Xiaoshuang caught up with her in two steps, took Wanyang's arm, and entered the yard with her.
Li Jidong stood there for a long time, thinking about all the things that had happened since he arrived. Even though he was a man, he was actually a little sentimental in nature.
Although Zhao Bin is a troubled child, he has a very good advantage, that is, he is diligent and can cook.
When Wanyang and the others walked to the stove, they had already pounded the corn into the pot.
"Everyone will definitely not be full if we just drink cornstarch! How about we put some corn tortillas on the edge of the pot?" Wanyang felt that she couldn't do it, so she asked Zhao Bin, who was cooking, for advice.
Zhao Bin finished pounding the corn and put the lid on the large wooden pot, and then said to Wanyang: "Stop working, I'll wash my hands and stick some corn tortillas on it. You and Qian Xiaoshuang will help watch the fire."
Bar."
To watch the fire, just add more firewood and don't let the fire die. It's not a heavy job.
Since Zhao Bin took the initiative to make cakes, Wanyang saved her own effort!
Even Qian Xiaoshuang, who had comforted him, couldn't help but praise him: "I didn't expect! A person like you who cares about everything can be so capable! How awesome!"
From ancient times to the present, no one would refute someone who praised him directly! Because of Qian Xiaoshuang's compliment, Zhao Bin decided in his heart that he would no longer care about what she said to comfort him today.
