Zhou Jiazhen said: "Don't just stare at it, go and collect your things. See if you are crushed."
Zhao Lanxiang didn't have time to enjoy the good noodles and meat she bought, so she threw herself into the tense rescue of luggage.
Li Dali, the captain of the squadron, came soon after he got the news. He looked at the collapsed old house, and his bushy eyebrows were bitter. Because last year's harvest was not good, the brigade was so poor that they could no longer afford the relief food. Now is the time when the yellow and yellow are not available. Where can there be so much spare money to build houses for these educated youths
The educated youths surrounded him and asked him what to do, Li Dali wiped his face and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will arrange the accommodation for each of you. I will temporarily stay at the villagers' homes tonight... As for what? Allocation, I'll go back and figure it out. You guys now—"
Li Dali just wanted to say let people go out to play, but after seeing Zhao Lanxiang with fair skin, he swallowed those words.
It's not good to let these cute girls out, what if something happens.
Li Dali said: "Come with me, the room where the farm tools are kept is still empty, so it's okay for you to rest during the day."
Zhao Lanxiang and others temporarily put their luggage in the room where the brigade placed public assets, and several people looked at each other in embarrassment.
The male educated youths were the hardest, their faces covered in mud and dust, their faces were as black as Bao Gong’s, and they made the frowning female educated youths laugh. Jiang Li came back happily in the afternoon, and found that all the things she had confiscated into the box had been smashed. After the captain left, she sneered, "What a broken place."
Zhao Lanxiang rolled her eyes silently in her heart, knowing that this is a broken place and she still wants to come, Zhao Lanxiang is very incomprehensible.
However, she was so hungry that she was so hungry that she had no time to speculate on the young lady's thoughts. She borrowed a firewood house from the surrounding family, and together with Zhou Jiazhen, she cooked pork buns and plain vegetable noodles. Zhao Lanxiang was especially reluctant to put out the oil, and used all the oil. Her buns were steamed in an hour. The steamed buns are made of the finest Fuqiang refined flour and semi-fat pork, which are tender and fluffy. While everyone was starving in the farm tool room, she and Zhou Jiazhen were sucking noodles in the farm house next door.
The scent wafted in the room, which attracted other educated youths to look over there, seeing Zhou Jiazhen's extremely enjoyable expression, they became more and more hungry. Seeing this, Zhao Lanxiang didn't hide it, she invited everyone to eat together. She took out some of the gnocchi left over from making the next noodles and gave it to the educated youth with an empty stomach. Although not much, eating with hot soup can pad your stomach.
Zhao Lanxiang's behavior made the educated youths who lost their homes feel a little better, and their affection for this lonely and reticent female educated youth rose to a new level. Although Zhao Lanxiang did not invite them to eat steamed buns, the gnocchi mixed with bean paste to eat is not to mention more beautiful. After all, flour is a fine grain, and pork is a rarity. A meal of fine grains for nothing is already a huge advantage.
Jiang Li went back to the educated youth when she was full. After a lot of hard work in packing up her luggage, the contents of her stomach were almost digested. When Zhao Lanxiang was making steamed buns, she could smell the fragrance, which was very tempting. Smelling the aroma, it was more fragrant than the buns sold by the state-run restaurant she had eaten. But Zhao Lanxiang did not invite her to eat by name, and Jiang Li didn't pull her face down to eat.
Until she watched Zhao Lanxiang swallow the last bun in her belly, without saying a word about inviting her to eat buns, Jiang Li's eyes were round and she was full of anger.
Zhao Lanxiang's enthusiasm towards her brother was like a piece of cowhide candy, and she couldn't shake it off. Some time ago, her brother was hospitalized, she casually mentioned it, and Zhao Lanxiang hurriedly bought a bunch of nutritional supplements, without blinking her eyes, her brother couldn't finish it until now. Where did he think that when Zhao Lanxiang came to the country, he would be reluctant to give her a meat bun
When she passed by Zhao Lanxiang, she said coldly, "I've already written to my family this weekend, don't expect me to say good things to you."
After speaking, she lifted her feet and strode out of the farm tool room.
Zhao Lanxiang comfortably touched her full stomach, but ignored Jiang Li. Zhou Jiazhen turned her head and whispered to her, "Do you know each other?"
Zhao Lanxiang said vaguely, "It's from a place, but I'm not very familiar with it."
Zhou Jiazhen said indignantly: "She's really, the captain is still showing that disgusting face. The captain has nothing to say, he is very conscientious and conscientious. Several battalions next to him often starve to death, our battalion Although I don’t have enough to eat, I get enough food every year. If you really think we are poor, why go to the countryside?”
Zhao Lanxiang smiled without saying a word, and lowered her head to mend her torn clothes. The needle and thread passed through her snow-white shirt, and she traced a flower on the cuff with pure blue silk thread.
Zhou Jiazhen's attention was quickly attracted by this flower, which was extremely rare.
She gave the clothes to Zhou Jiazhen. He held his chin and looked at the blue sky, but he was in a good mood.
The collective dormitory of the educated youth collapsed, and I don't know how the captain assigned their dormitory. She... She doesn't want to go anywhere except the old man's house.
…
Zhao Lanxiang was thinking of living in the old man's house, but Li Dali scratched his head in order to assign these educated youths.
His mouth was dry, and he deliberately called the villagers to discuss. Although the title of educated youth sounds very good, they come under the banner of building a new socialist countryside, and in the end they are really doing construction, but they are being built even poorer. Ask yourself, no family is willing to take in these intellectual young people from the bottom of their hearts.
Li Dali said patiently: "You don't have to worry about their meals, you just rent for a while. When the educated youth dormitories are built, you won't have to bother you anymore. If you don't agree, everyone can take turns. There are about ten educated youths, and each family receives a month, so everyone is fair, and it simply saves them the money to build a house."
When the villagers heard this, they couldn't sit down on the stools.
"Hey - Captain, aren't you kidding us?" This is the straight forward party.
"No, no, it's not a matter of living in each family for a month, how unstable. Those students probably don't want to." This is a roundabout and obscure faction.
"It's better to cast lots and let whichever one get it." This is the adventurous faction.
Everyone pushed around and discussed with red necks for a long time. Li Dali decided to let the cadres lead by example and accept the educated youth. The team leader and the branch secretary received two, and one deputy leader and one deputy branch secretary each. The remaining villagers cast lots by themselves.
All they have to do is live without the food, just pack a room and leave the clutter in the room for the educated youth. Rao is like this, and there are many people who do not want to suffer.
Li Youfu's family drew three, Li Jianguo's three, He Guoqing's three, and He Aijun's two. Those who were not selected for the educated youth were secretly relieved, their joy was hidden in their hearts, and they did not reveal it. Instead, he patted the three families and said openly, "Don't worry, those students are all sensible, and maybe they have to subsidize your rent and food every month!"
Li Jianguo's mother-in-law stuck her waist, pointed her finger at an educated youth on the list, and said, "Our family wants these three."
The three she ordered were Jiang Li, Zhao Lanxiang, and Tang Qing. These three educated youths are usually neatly dressed and well-mannered. They are smart and handsome. They look like real city people. If you can really receive these three people, you might be able to eat some meat along with it.
The other three families immediately became unhappy, and as a result, everyone quarreled again. The quarrel over the "rich people" among these educated youths made Li Dali's head jump.
He slapped the table hard and scolded: "Shut up for me, what's the fuss!"
Captain Li Dali has a doughy temper. He looks fierce, but he is actually a good man. He is very dignified in the brigade, even the most savage wife in the brigade dare not provoke him.
The party secretary finally said: "This is not good, that is not good. Whoever is willing to take the initiative to accept the educated youth will stand up. How is it possible to just think about taking advantage of it?"
In the end, due to the feelings of the captain and the party secretary, several family members stood up hesitantly, which relieved the pressure on these three families. On average, each family only accepts 1-2 people, and the pressure is not too great, which is still within the acceptable range.
After Li Dali sent everyone away, the whole person collapsed.
He wiped his face with a sweat towel and said to the party secretary, "How to arrange and distribute these comrades is also a headache."
The secretary said humorously: "What's the matter, they don't have long hands themselves?"
Li Dali patted his forehead and said clearly: "Then let them choose and take care of that, won't I be exhausted?"
In the afternoon, Li Dali went to the temporary educated youth station to announce his decision, and let these educated youth choose their own place to stay until the brigade handed over the food and then built a new dormitory for them at the end of the year.
There are a total of eight families in the list who are willing to accept educated youths. Zhao Lanxiang searched all over and couldn't find the shadow of the old man.
She wrote another note to the old man in the small account book, but said with a smile on her face: "Report to the captain, I have solved my accommodation problem, so I don't need to add a burden to the team."
Li Dali glanced at her, the big-eyed female educated youth stared straight at him, staring at him, his heart throbbing violently, his charcoal-like face turned away uncomfortably, he fucked a thick mouth The local accent said: "I know, which one is it?"
Zhao Lanxiang bit out the name crisply: "He Songbai's house."
Li Dali clasped his hands and made a state of thinking, but in fact his brain was dazzled by the smile of this female educated youth. How can there be someone who smiles so beautifully, when he laughs, his eyes are like a clear mouth, and it hits the depths of his heart, making his heart numb for a while.
"Oh... it's He Songbai's house, He Song—"
He suddenly came to his senses, He Songbai, isn't that the ignorant and idle gangster He Songbai in the village
Li Dali shook his head abruptly and said solemnly, "If you change family, this family won't work."
