The next morning, because Gu Xiaoqi had an extra day off, she slept in. When she got up, no one was in the room as everyone had gone to work.

There was no one there, so Gu Xiaoqi got downstairs, locked the door, and slipped into the space to take a shower.

After cleaning up, he made himself a cup of malted milk and ate some vegetarian buns.

It’s nice to eat in space without worrying about being smelled.

After eating and drinking, Gu Xiaoqi looked at the large amount of supplies in the house and the things he had not had time to put away, so he planned to sort them out while he had time.

There was also a special cabinet that was used in the Gu family’s kitchen, which was filled with food that Gu Xiaoqi had hoarded.

After making the bed, Gu Xiaoqi looked at the small nest in front of her, feeling very safe. This was her private space.

Seeing that the jade bowl was already covered with a layer of spiritual water, Gu Xiaoqi thought about it and decided to save it for later drinking!

If you plan to live alone, you also have to ask the team leader or the village party secretary.

There are also several large rectangular vegetable pots in the space. They were used by Gu Xiaoqi to grow vegetables at that time. He has to think about buying some seeds and planting one in the space.

Just drop a drop of spiritual water and I believe you will be able to grow delicious vegetables.

Gu Xiaoqi came out of the space, jumped off the bed, got dressed, and walked out of the educated youth point.

People of this era are full of energy. Walking in the village, people in the wheat fields and rice fields are working hard.

Although the weather was a bit cold, many men took off their coats and were sweating while working.

Gu Xiaoqi walked towards the wheat field. He saw several middle-aged women drying radishes and chatting about family matters. Gu Xiaoqi walked up to them and asked, "Aunties, I'm a new educated youth. Do you know anyone who sells seeds? I want to buy some!"

"Seeds? The seeds in our village are purchased in bulk, and every household has a fixed amount, so it's hard to get any!

Besides, you can’t buy seeds now, and they might go bad in storage. I advise you to buy them in the spring of next year when you still have a chance to buy them!” said an old lady.

"Why are you buying seeds? Who would buy seeds at this season?" Another middle-aged woman with a pair of triangular eyes looked mean and unruly.

Gu Xiaoqi smiled and said, "I'm asking on behalf of my relatives!" After saying goodbye, Gu Xiaoqi left.

When Gu Xiaoqi heard this, he realized that buying seeds was not an easy thing in this day and age. It seemed that asking these aunts would not work. It would be better to ask the team leader or the village party secretary directly.

As Gu Xiaoqi walked into the wheat field, he heard the captain's angry voice.

"I've taught you so many times, but you really don't know how to do it. Are you just being lazy? You're not as tall as a kid. Just bend down and use the sickle to cut close to the root. How easy is that!"

Li Mingzhong felt a chill in his heart. He thought Gao Shanfeng was a capable man because he was tall and strong, but he turned out to be a useless figure!

Instead, his eyes were staring at the girls in the village, and none of them worked properly when they saw him!

"The captain is right. I will work hard and study hard!" Gao Shanfeng said with a very good attitude.

The girls around were attracted by Gao Shanfeng because he was tall, handsome and polite.

Even the aunt next to him looked at Gao Shanfeng with a smile on her face. It turns out that being good-looking does have advantages.

Seeing that Gao Shanfeng had a good attitude, Li Mingzhong could not say anything more and walked back with a sigh.

The only promising candidate he had his eyes on turned out to be a mistake!

Originally, Gu Xiaoqi saw that the captain was angry and thought about asking later, but just as she turned around and walked back, Li Mingzhong saw her.

"Gu Zhiqing?"

Gu Xiaoqi paused and turned back: "Captain!"

"Didn't we give you a day off? Why are you still here in the fields? You don't have to feel burdened! The village only gave you one day off, so take a good rest, don't let your mind wander, and be a positive young person! Don't be so quick to commit suicide!"

Gu Xiaoqi smiled innocently and said, "Thank you, Captain. I have come to terms with it. I just wanted to ask you something, so I came to the wheat field!"

Li Mingzhong and Gu Xiaoqi walked out side by side. It was lunch time, so Gu Xiaoqi followed them to the captain's house.

"Captain, I would like to ask if our educated youth can live outside alone. I know my question is a bit abrupt, but I will pay for the existing houses in the village or for building new ones! I will definitely not let the village suffer any loss!" Gu Xiaoqi said frankly.

The captain looked at Gu Xiaoqi and thought to himself, he knew that this girl was a person with her own ideas. She had accepted cigarettes from others before, so her attitude was much better now.

"Gu Zhiqing, the winters are long and cold here in the Northeast. It's not suitable to build houses at this time of year. The existing houses in the village are basically in disrepair because no one lives there. They may be okay in the summer, but they are definitely uninhabitable in the winter!" said Li Mingzhong.

Gu Xiaoqi continued to ask, "Captain, is there really no room left? I heard that the educated youth will come in batches in the future, and there will definitely not be enough accommodation for the educated youth site. Although I have selfish motives, this will also free up a room, and I won't live there for nothing! It will also generate income for the village!"

Li Mingzhong naturally knew this truth, but the big house in his family had a lot of people in it, and the house with fewer people was small and had no extra rooms.

As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the captain's house. They could smell the aroma of food from afar. The captain's mother, Zhang Fuyu, had just prepared the food. Seeing the captain, she called out, "Son, the food is ready. Come in, wash your hands and have your meal! Hey, is this the new educated youth?"

When Aunt Fu saw that the girl was pretty and well-educated, she knew she must be from the city.

Gu Xiaoqi quickly approached Aunt Fu and said, "Auntie, you have good eyesight. I am a new educated youth. My name is Gu Xiaoqi!"

"I just finished cooking, come in and eat together!" said Aunt Fu.

"No, no, I just came to talk to the captain about something, and I'll leave after I'm done. Thank you, Auntie!"

Hearing the sound of a baby crying, Aunt Fu hurried back into the house.

Gu Xiaoqi took out two packets of brown sugar from his thick coat and handed them to Li Mingzhong.

Li Mingzhong immediately became serious when he saw it: "Gu Zhiqing, I have already told you about the situation in the village. There is really no place to stay. Even if you send me something, I can't make it happen! You can take the things back!"

Gu Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Captain, let's put things in perspective. I just heard a child crying in the house. There should be a newborn baby and a pregnant woman in the house!

I happen to have some brown sugar here, so don't refuse it. Even if there are no vacancies, it doesn't matter. Just consider it as my blessing to the captain's family on their upcoming new life. Don't refuse it anymore!"

After hearing what Gu Xiaoqi said, the captain felt relieved. This Gu Zhiqing was really good at handling things!
