She actually wanted to buy a kettle, but you needed a ticket to buy anything these days. The supply and marketing cooperative did sell kettles, but she didn't have a ticket, so in the end she had no choice but to buy two enamel pots.

After putting the water in, he glanced around and made sure there was no one around before he picked up the backpack. However, this time the basket was obviously heavier than before.

I had put a few lunch boxes and enamel pots in the car before, but considering that I would have to live in the educated youth camp in the future, if some things were not revealed and were often taken out and used, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

Although Gu Wan disliked the original owner's suspicion and overthinking, there was one thing she was right about, which was to be careful. After all, everyone knew that it was a crime to possess a treasure.

When Gu Wan returned to the village, it was just the time when everyone was getting off work.

She first went to tell Fang Ping about her encounter with Fang Qinghen, and said what she had asked her to say, which was that he might not come back to be with her this month.

This kind of thing has happened before, so Fang Ping was not worried. Instead, she was very grateful to Gu Wan for conveying the message for her. If Gu Wan had not left quickly, she would have been forced to eat again.

It gets dark late in the summer, especially after a hot and humid day. When the sun sets at five or six o'clock and a gentle breeze blows, it is a rare, comfortable and quiet time.

Everyone walked back, laughing and talking.

When they saw Gu Wan walking on the main road of the village carrying a backpack half a person's height, many people were stunned and kept looking at her.

"Hey, this is Gu Zhiqing, right?"

The person who was speaking had a pilling white towel wrapped around his head. It was called a towel, but in fact it had already started to run loose.

"Yes, Auntie is off work now."

Hearing her response, the people walking with her and behind her stopped and waited for Gu Wan to come over.

The location of the educated youth point is at the foot of the mountain on the west side of the village. To go back to the point, one has to cross the main road of the village.

"Yeah, is Gu Zhiqing going shopping?"

"Yes, I haven't prepared the things I need for life, so I went to take a look." Gu Wan said, staring with bright eyes, looking very well behaved.

When the aunt who was speaking saw her like this, she, who usually had no feelings for her granddaughter, actually thought it was good to have a daughter like her.

"It's time to go. We'll be staying here for a long time, so we need to prepare everything." Aunt said with a smile, without any intention of asking her what she had bought specifically.

Gu Wan tilted her little face up and nodded in agreement with a smile. Seeing this, the people next to her also smiled at her as a greeting.

Everyone has a lot of things to do at home. Although they have finished work, there are still a lot of things to do at home. After talking for a few words, they parted ways.

As soon as Gu Wan left, the aunts continued to walk towards home.

The only difference was that the original topic of conversation became Gu Wan.

"Hey, did you see that? Gu Zhiqing is in good spirits today."

As she spoke, she withdrew her gaze from Gu Wan who was walking away, took two quick steps, and caught up with the group.

The aunt who had just spoken to Gu Wan raised her eyebrows, recalled Gu Wan's appearance in her mind, and then nodded.

"That's right. That girl is pitiful. She didn't even make a fuss even though she was starving. If it were the girls in our village, they would have gone to her house long ago."

The people around him nodded in agreement.

"Gu Zhiqing looks like a polite intellectual, but he's just too polite."

She sighed with some regret, and everyone present knew exactly what she felt sorry for.

Speaking of Gu Wan, she was walking towards the educated youth site at that time. She didn't feel at all that she looked down on the villagers or had any sense of alienation with them because she was an educated youth.

On the contrary, she felt that they were very simple and honest, and they were older. When she was young, she grew up with her grandmother, who was also an ordinary old lady in the countryside.

So when I look at them, I feel particularly relieved.

But when I reached the fork in the road leading back to the educated youth point and walked onto the small path, my lips began to purse naturally and the smile on my face disappeared.

I also met a few educated youths from the educated youth points on the way. The male educated youths were okay. When I met them, I just smiled and nodded as a greeting.

The female educated youth simply ignored her.

Gu Wan didn't take these things seriously. There was no need to get along with people you couldn't get along with. If you did, you would be the only one who would suffer.

It is quality that matters more than quantity.

But she didn't notice Xiao Wen who was walking behind her. When she saw Xiao Wen carrying a backpack that was half a person's height, anger flashed in her eyes and she clenched her fists. She didn't loosen her hands until she heard a voice talking behind her.

"Hey, that's Gu Wan, right? It looks like she's going to town today?"

"It seems so. But judging from the backpack, it seems like she bought a lot of things. Where did she get the money?"

The backpack that Gu Wan bought was woven from bamboo, so there were bound to be gaps. If you bought something inside, you would be able to see a rough outline of what was inside.

Deng Yuwei frowned and looked at Gu Wan who was walking alone in front of her with a complicated expression, and said casually:

"Doesn't she have no money? Where did she get the money?"

Everyone knows that Gu Wan only has two sets of clothes, and even the quilt she covers herself with is the rag from her bag. Although she has a mosquito net, it is so old that it would break if touched.

Not only did he have to wear a pair of shoes, he didn't even have a water bottle to drink from.

In addition to daily necessities, everyone else brought more or less food, but she had nothing at all. When she fainted, several of the new female educated youth helped carry the things, and they were also the ones who carried the things, so it was certain that she did not bring any other extra things.

It has been such a long time, and he would rather faint from hunger than spend money to exchange for food. He must not have brought any money with him. How come he suddenly has money to buy things in town?

Money is needed for everything these days, and the things he bought filled half of the backpack. She even saw a few silver objects, which should be lunch boxes.

After hearing her words, Tong Yin was also stunned, but she didn't think much about it. After all, her family was not bad, and she felt that it was normal for everyone to have some money.

She also didn't know that some families really disliked their daughters and didn't care about their daughters' life or death, and sent them to the countryside without taking anything with them. This was beyond her understanding.

So even if I am a little curious, it is just curiosity and I won’t think too much about it.

Deng Yuwei glanced at Tong Yin, and seeing that she was just curious, she didn't say much.

But as she thought about the handful of red dates she had paid as compensation, she still frowned and was unwilling to let go.

When they walked past Xiao Wen, they just said hello and then parted ways.
