"Sister Cuihua, this family depends on you. Let's go over there and take a look first."

After taking care of the housework for a while, Lan Xin took the key and took Lan Yongtian to the educated youth site.

Lan Yongtian was holding a broom, bucket, rag and other things used to clean the house, which were not available at the educated youth site.

The educated youth point in Lanjia Village is located at the end of the village. Lan Xin’s home is just up a slope to reach it.

From a distance, you can see two stone houses, surrounded by a fence made of sparse branches.

When I got closer, I saw that the yard was full of wild grass as tall as a person. Under the sunlight, the grass leaves made a slight rustling sound in the breeze, as if I could hear the sparse life sounds of the educated youth who lived here a few years ago.

Lan Xin walked to the fence outside the yard, reached out and pulled open the small door made of branches.

This time, Lan Yongtian seemed to have a smarter mind. After entering, he raised his feet and stepped on the grass that blocked the way to make way for Lan Xin.

"Let's go to the kitchen first."

Lan Xin took the tools from Lan Yongtian and made a decision.

Lan Yongtian took the lead and with his hands he grabbed the weeds that were so long that they scratched his face, uprooted them and threw them at his feet.

Lan Yongtian opened a path leading to the kitchen in the middle of the intimate spot, and Lan Xin followed behind him.

This kitchen was even more crude, made of stacked wooden boards and tree barks, with a roof made of thatch and tree barks on top, and it didn't even have a door.

As soon as you get close to the door, you can see what's going on inside. Beams of light shine in through the gaps in the wooden boards, illuminating the kitchen with a little bit of dust.

There were only two black stoves made of stones and mud inside. The place was empty and there was no chimney at all. It looked extremely simple.

The originally flattened ground has now been taken root by weeds, with small clumps in each place, some as tall as a person's calf.

"Sister Lan Xin?" Lan Yongtian looked back at Lan Xin. He was not surprised by such kitchen scenes.

"Let's take a look at the stone houses on both sides and see which room can be used as a warehouse." Lan Xin said as she walked towards a dormitory nearby.

This dormitory does have a door with a big padlock on it. Lan Xin took out the key and opened the lock with a clang.

As soon as she pushed open the shabby wooden door, thick dust hit her face. Lan Xin immediately held her breath and closed her eyes. It was a while before she dared to open her eyes and look.

This dormitory was built of stone, and the only lighting and ventilation in the room were two fifty-centimeter tofu-block-sized windows.

There were also clumps of weeds growing in the places where the light hit the ground inside the house.

The area is not small, at about 40 square meters, but if more than a dozen people have to live in such a house, it is not big at all.

There was nothing in the dormitory. The wooden planks that were originally used to build the beds were taken away, leaving only the stones that were used to support the bed legs, piled up in piles. From these stones, it can be judged that these places have been built with beds, which occupy more than half of the room.

Lan Xin was shocked and couldn't help shaking her head. The lives of the educated youth back then must have been too hard. They stayed there for so many years and she had no idea how they managed.

No wonder Zhou Rongxin couldn't stand it. After knowing that there was no hope of returning to the city, he was determined to seduce Yuan Lanxin and live with her.

The same thing happened in the other dormitory, with only stones left. This had both advantages and disadvantages for Lan Xin. Although she didn't have to pack too many things, she still had to add a lot of other stuff.

After taking a look, Lan Xin pointed to a house facing the mountain with poor lighting that would be used as a warehouse, and another one that would be used as their activity area.

Lan Xin looked around and made arrangements, "Nagata, when the time comes, this house will be separated for you with wooden boards, and the inside will be your room."

She looked around again and said, "This place is not far from my home. I think I'll have someone connect an electric line here. This way, you can have electricity and your life will be more convenient."

Lan Yongtian nodded quickly.

"You live alone here, are you scared?" Lan Xin asked after looking around.

When this youth educated camp was built, it was deliberately separated in order to avoid conflicts with the villagers.

There was no one living around, it was very quiet, and not many human voices could be heard. It looked particularly desolate and scary.

Lan Yongtian shook his head. "I'm brave, I'm not afraid, and you guys are here during the day, right?"

Lan Yongtian walked outside. The youth settlement was built on a hillside. From here, he could see half of Lanjia Village. The wind could bring the noisy sounds from the village below. It was quiet but not too lonely, and he could stay away from socializing. Lan Yongtian was not afraid at all, but liked it very much.

"Then let's pack up our things first." Lan Xin felt relieved when she heard Lan Yongtian's reaction.

Lan Xin and Lan Yongtian began to pull out the weeds. When most of the grass in the yard had been pulled out, Old Man Lan came up with a father and son. They were Old Zhang and his son who were building the stove.

When Lao Zhang saw this place, he couldn't help but complain: "Oh, how long has this house been here? How come it's so desolate?"

"That's right. You are responsible for repairing this place inside and out, otherwise how can it be used?" Old Man Lan walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and found an iron water pipe. He followed the pipe to the faucet, turned it, but there was no water at all.

But it doesn't matter, there is a care for it. They can find someone to deal with it and the water will be available. This will also be convenient for Lan Xin and the others.

Lao Zhang picked up his tools and planned to go to the kitchen first. As he walked, he said, "It took a lot of effort to build this house. It will be a nice house after some cleaning."

Otherwise, why would so many people in the village want this house?

After touching the faucet, Old Man Lan followed Old Zhang into the kitchen, followed by Lan Xin.

Lao Zhang's son, carrying a ladder, began to walk around the two houses covered with tiles and stones, and began to check if there was anything broken.

Lan Yongtian, who had been silent all the time, looked up and finally decided to continue pulling out his own weeds. The sooner he finished, the sooner he could move in.

Lan Xin pointed to the middle of the kitchen and said to Lao Zhang, "I don't want these two stoves. Help me cut three stoves in this place. There must be a flue."

Old man Zhang looked at the house, nodded and wrote it down. Then Lan Xin mentioned some other requirements. He nodded when they were met, and directly rejected those that could not be met.

At the end, Old Man Zhang couldn't help but shook his head: "Are you going to buy this house? It costs so much money to add to it."

Young people just spend money lavishly.

"Of course we should do it better so that it will be more convenient to do things." Lan Xin said as she walked outside and looked at Lao Zhang's son who had already climbed onto the roof.

She squinted her eyes, looked at the dazzling Zhang Feng on the roof, and asked loudly.

"Brother Zhang Feng, how are the roof tiles?"

"Some tiles are rotten. I can fix them." A loud voice came from the roof.
