Chapter 223 Childhood Sweetheart, Female Educated Youth 7
Jiang Jiangang looked around and found that the conditions at this educated youth settlement were quite good.
He also observed the six educated youths who came this time.
Those two male educated youths seemed to be from Beijing; their accents were very similar.
Their family background seems quite good.
The other two female educated youths seemed easy to get along with.
Moreover, everyone living separately can reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Jiang Jiangang had to rush back and didn't linger.
After saying goodbye to Jiang He, I embarked on my journey back.
Jiang He used some technological means to clean the room.
Then I started arranging my things.
Jiang He put away the old tables, chairs, and cabinets that were originally in the room.
They changed into the ones from inside the space.
With a tablecloth laid out, a cabinet cover placed, and chair covers put on, there's no noticeable difference.
Only some frequently used items were placed outside; the less frequently used items were stuffed into the cabinet.
There are also some in the space, which can be accessed whenever needed.
The bamboo bed creaks and groans as soon as you sit on it.
If I turn over in bed tonight, I wonder if I'll wake myself up.
We changed the bed, made it up, and started a fire to boil water.
Jiang Jiangang has already told Jiang He the location of the well.
Jiang He went and brought back a bucket of water.
There is water in the space, and this bucket of water also serves as a disguise.
The first day was spent with everyone packing up.
No one cooks at night.
Everyone still had some dry rations on them, so they just ate a couple of bites.
We were all exhausted from rushing to catch the train and packing.
Bai Chenggong looked at the two male educated youths in the same room, and they both had the air of young masters.
Wearing a watch, a white shirt, and leather shoes.
The items they brought out were also very complete.
It seems the young master doesn't do much housework. He doesn't even know how to clean the house. He doesn't wipe the dust off the floor and just puts things on the floor.
Don't be fooled by its clean appearance; it's covered in a layer of dust.
Touch it, and your hand will be covered in black stains.
The tables and chairs in this room are for public use, and Bai Chenggong took the initiative to wipe them.
Seeing how hardworking and capable Bai Chenggong was, the two of them handed over the tidying up to him.
They also gave Bai Chenggong cookies and chocolates to eat.
Bai Chenggong had never eaten chocolate before, but he helped tidy up and got to eat it. What a pair of young masters!
She's even more generous than Jiang He.
Jiang He barely paid any attention to him today.
He was left behind, and Jiang He didn't even know it.
They don't even bother to check up on him.
Jiang He was never like this before, why has she been like this lately?
From which day did it start to change?
It seems to have been the day I signed up to go to the countryside.
That day, Jiang He did the same thing, ignoring him and leaving on her own.
Is it because of her brother?
Did her parents say something?
Will Jiang He be able to turn back to her original form later?
Bai Chenggong put those thoughts aside for the time being and focused on the present, cleaning up the mess to satisfy the two young masters.
That way, he might be able to get some benefits from these two young masters later.
He can live a good life if they let a little bit slip through their fingers.
Gu Jianhua and Wang Jianguo sat in chairs, chatting, while watching Bai Chenggong tidy up by himself.
They felt perfectly justified.
After all, they had already paid them with cookies and chocolates.
Finding someone here to help them with the work would be a good idea.
Just think of it as hiring a nanny; pay a small amount of money, and you won't have to do these chores.
They could tell that Bai Chenggong's family was probably not well-off.
Or rather, it's the one with the worst conditions here.
They do these things very skillfully, probably because they do them often at home.
His clothes, shoes, and even the cloth covering his bundle were all very old.
Such people are very easy to manipulate.
Basically, it can be fixed by spending some money.
I just don't know where this person's bottom line is.
Which jobs are we willing to do, and which jobs are we unwilling to do?
We can try to figure this out later; there's no rush.
By the time Bai Chenggong had cleaned up the huge house and made the beds for the two young masters, it was already evening.
Gu Jianhua took out a flashlight.
Bai Chenggong quickly made his bed.
The two young masters are getting ready for dinner.
Bai Chenggong also received a steamed bun filled with sauerkraut and pork.
As payment for making the bed.
Bai Chenggong had eaten sauerkraut-filled buns before, but this was the first time he had ever tasted meat inside a sauerkraut bun.
Bai Chenggong slowly savored the unforgettable sauerkraut and pork filling of the steamed buns.
Bai Chenggong ate his steamed bun and decided to put the search for Jiang He on hold for the time being.
These steamed buns smell so good, Jiang He will definitely be able to smell them when he gets there.
He wouldn't know how to answer if Jiang He asked.
These steamed buns smelled so good, he really couldn't bear to share them with Jiang He.
Jiang He took corn cakes, radish cakes, and cabbage dumplings.
There was no meat in it.
If I traded with her, I would be at a disadvantage.
Bai Chenggong hid inside the house and finished eating the steamed buns.
Jiang He was also eating in her room at that time.
For dinner, we had steamed buns and meat sauce.
Tear the steamed bun in half, spread the meat sauce on it, and add some kimchi. It's very delicious.
Jiang He picked another cucumber from her spatial storage and made a cucumber salad as a cold dish.
Since I live alone, I don't have to force her to eat.
As long as you don't make things with a strong smell, other people won't know exactly what you're eating.
The next day, everyone gathered together to discuss how to eat, whether to share meals or eat separately.
How do we get the water? Do we carry it ourselves, or do we take turns carrying it every day?
There is a large water vat in the yard; if you need water urgently, this is the most convenient place to get it.
There's also the issue of food rations.
Growing vegetables and raising chickens.
There are many things to consider if you want to live here.
After discussing it, Jiang He decided to eat alone, while the two female educated youths ate together, and the three male educated youths also agreed to eat together.
Bai Chenggong said he could cook, so the two young masters immediately pulled him along and shared a pot with him.
A qualified nanny should, of course, know how to cook.
The group then made plans to visit the commune.
See if there's anything we need to add.
I also need to buy some seeds and some chicks.
This way, they will have their own vegetable garden, and they can pick vegetables whenever they want.
Chicks can lay eggs, eggs are delicious, and when the chickens grow up, they can be slaughtered for meat.
Bai Chenggong was the first to agree to the proposal.
Gu Jianhua and Wang Jianguo agreed after seeing that Bai Chenggong had agreed, thinking that this person could handle the matter well.
If this has to be done in shifts, then Bai Chenggong can just do it for us.
The male educated youth all agreed.
They all thought it was acceptable to clear land and grow vegetables, and the female educated youth had no objections either.
Although they are rich enough to buy vegetables from other people's homes every day, they have to see what vegetables other people have to buy.
You can grow your own food that you like.
The group went to the post office and mailed the letter.
Then they went to the supply and marketing cooperative and agreed to meet at the entrance. After that, they went their separate ways.
Bai Chenggong originally wanted to be with Jiang He.
Since he was at the supply and marketing cooperative, he could ask Jiang He to help him buy some things.
But Gu Jianhua stopped Bai Chenggong and asked him to come with them.
Gu Jianhua certainly wouldn't buy anything for Bai Chenggong; what he wanted was a tool to help carry things.
The reward was a tea egg.
