Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

After listening to the gossip, Song Shuangshuang took Tan Anjing home, and took the bag of corn back the same way they brought it, without even opening it.

When she got home, Song Shuangshuang couldn't wait to tell Song Youlin and He Feiyang about it.

The two of them had the same idea as Song Shuangshuang, guessing that this was definitely not an accident. As for whether the two parties noticed it, that was unknown.

Ji Hongcai had a grudge against Feng Aiguo anyway. If Feng Aiguo hadn't put pressure on him and called out all the educated youth, he would not have let anyone know about this.

"I don't know if Ji Hongcai knows that this matter has spread in the village." Song Shuangshuang asked curiously.

He Feiyang shook his head and said, "According to what you heard from the villagers, he definitely doesn't know about this. Feng Aiguo and the others won't be able to tell him when they go back." They already had time to dislike Ji Hongcai.

"This is such a shabby relationship, tsk tsk."

Song Shuangshuang couldn't wait until the next day. She really wanted to see Ji Hongcai's reaction when he found out about this and whether he would pick a fight with Feng Aiguo.

When they went out the next day, the four of them did not go out of their way to look for other educated youths collecting firewood. After all, Ji Hongcai was unlucky enough, so if they could meet him, they would target him again, otherwise, forget it.

After going up the mountain, the four of them still gathered firewood together first, and then the two boys carried it down the mountain.

Last night, when the two boys were sorting firewood, they found that the four of them collected almost twice as much firewood as if they were collecting alone.

The two boys just have to put in more effort and make more trips up and down the mountain, but having the car saves a lot of trouble.

What's more, Song Shuangshuang and Tan Anjing were not idle in the mountains. They collected firewood and picked mushrooms, and they got a lot.

After another busy morning, when it was time to go back, Song Shuangshuang asked Song Youlin and He Feiyang to pull the cart back first, while she and Tan Anjing took another route down the mountain, and also took the opportunity to see if there was any place where no one had picked up firewood yet.

During this period, they tried to go to the mountains as much as possible, looking for places with fewer people and more firewood.

When Song Shuangshuang returned to the Youth League Home, Song Youlin was preparing to knead dough. Seeing Song Shuangshuang come back, he asked her what to cook for lunch.

Song Shuangshuang saw the eggplants brought by He Feiyang and Tan Anjing in the kitchen, and there were also a lot of potatoes at home, so she came out of the kitchen and asked the others how about making potato stewed with eggplants for lunch.

"Okay, I'm not picky." He Feiyang had no say in this matter.

Tan Anjing also said yes.

"Okay, An Jing and I will go to the kitchen to cook, and you two can go to the yard to get some firewood first."

After the work was divided, Song Shuangshuang went into the kitchen first and took out a head of garlic for Tan Anjing. "Come on, garlic peeler."

Then she went back to the kitchen. Song Shuangshuang took two steps inside and took out some white flour from the space to mix with the cornmeal.

The potatoes and eggplants were stewed in the pot for a while before Song Shuangshuang put the pancakes on the edge of the pot. When the pancakes were cooked, she scooped them out, sprinkled the chopped garlic into the pot, stir-fried them quickly, and shouted outside.

"Wash your hands and get ready to eat!"

Finally, he quickly put the stewed potatoes and eggplant into a large bowl and asked Tan Anjing to take it out. He then added a few scoops of water into the pot and heated it with the remaining fire. After eating, he washed the dishes together.

"How come I can never get tired of this dish!" Tan Anjing couldn't help but sigh, it's so delicious.

Song Shuangshuang smiled and said, "If this dish is stewed with lard and sprinkled with some chopped chili peppers, you can eat it. One pot of rice is not enough for the four of us."

There is a saying in Northeast China: Stewing potatoes and eggplants will make an old man die of stuffiness.

This dish is said to be delicious and goes well with rice, and no matter how much you have, it is never enough.

Tan Anjing thought about the size of the pot in Song Shuangshuang's house and shook her head, "Not really." Could they finish the whole pot of rice?

There is also this big pot of vegetables, and the potatoes in this pot are the same as corn, which are given to them as rations, not vegetables.

Song Shuangshuang took another bite of the pancake and said, "If you don't believe me, wait until winter. Let's get some pork and I'll cook it for you. See how many bowls you can eat."

Tan Anjing couldn't help smacking her lips. If this dish had pork in it...it would be so delicious.

She couldn't wait any longer.

After dinner, the four of them simply sorted out the firewood they had brought back in the morning, made room at the door, and pulled the cart up the mountain again.

There was nothing to do at noon, so the villagers would take a nap. Therefore, there were not many people on the road. I saw the male educated youth on the way up the mountain.

Song Shuangshuang looked around deliberately, and there was really no sign of Ji Hongcai.

Anyway, three of the four of them didn't get along with the male educated youth and didn't intend to say hello to them, so they went to the place that she and Tan Anjing saw when they came down the mountain at noon.

When the male educated youth came over, Song Shuangshuang and a few others had already collected a lot of firewood. They all knew that Cao Qi and Song Shuangshuang and the others did not get along, so they did not choose to stay here and went to look for another place.

Song Youlin and He Feiyang met Ji Hongcai on their way back from the mountain after pulling firewood again. They deliberately took a detour to come back.

"It seems that Ji Hongcai must have known that the news of him falling into the toilet had spread, so he always chose to walk to places where there were no people or few people."

Not long after they finished speaking, they saw Ji Hongcai walking towards this side. Several people temporarily hid in a place where they could not be seen by Ji Hongcai. Although Song Shuangshuang was quite far away, she could vaguely see the blisters on Ji Hongcai's mouth.

I thought to myself, this fire is really big! Such a big bubble.

Ji Hongcai saw some firewood scattered on the ground, looked around, and when he saw that there was no one there, he gathered them together.

While gathering firewood, he cursed everyone in the Youth League Home in his heart.

He didn't go out yesterday, but last night the other male educated youth were saying that he didn't go up the mountain to collect firewood with them because he wanted to get something for nothing.

He had no choice but to go out with the other male educated youth today. When walking on the road, the other male educated youth, including Feng Aiguo, deliberately kept their distance from him, which was fine because he himself could still smell of shit.

But the villagers passing by also looked at him with strange eyes. He thought Jiang Xuyang had reported to the village chief and the team leader. He didn't dare to listen carefully. He said hello to the other male educated youth and went up the mountain alone. At that time, he wondered why Feng Aiguo didn't tell him if he knew that they had been reported to the village chief.

Feng Aiguo could actually endure the strange looks from the villagers.

When he came back at noon, he found out that the villagers were talking about him falling into the toilet!

It was not at all about him and Feng Aiguo being sued as the village chief.

Ji Hongcai found other educated youth and asked them who spread the news of him falling into the toilet and how the whole village knew about it!

Feng Aiguo explained that they had not told anyone about this, and that they could prove it to each other. They only found out about it yesterday, and they did not dare to tell him because they were afraid that he might have other ideas.

"You said you didn't say it, so you didn't say it! Who can prove it?"

Cao Qi said with a hint of sarcasm, "Do we need to tell you? I can tell from the smell on you that you fell into the toilet."

After saying this, Ji Hongcai went over and started wrestling with Cao Qi, but they were quickly separated by the male educated youth.

Anyway, Ji Hongcai was certain that the news was spread by people from the Youth League Institute, otherwise how would the villagers know about it.
