Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

Although she knew that the conditions here were far from comfortable at home, Su Wanwan understood that it was rare to have one's own bedroom in this village. Most villagers lived with their families, and even the dormitory for educated youth was not as empty as she imagined. She secretly adjusted her expression, pretended not to care, and turned to pick up her luggage.

Fortunately, the oxcart they had brought was following behind her, so she didn't have to go back to carry the large bag of luggage manually.

However, just unloading the luggage from the oxcart and putting it into the house was a long distance that Su Wanwan felt a little overwhelmed. When she crossed the threshold, she took a deep breath and walked towards the oxcart.

"Comrade, can you help me find the biggest bag in the car?" Su Wanwan asked.

The surroundings were shrouded in darkness, with only the dim light of a kerosene lamp left in the yard. It was not until she approached the ox cart that she realized that the packages were missing, including her important luggage bag.

"I didn't see it." One of the people who followed, the young man from Baihua Village answered.

"How strange, could such a heavy item grow wings and fly away?" Su Wanwan muttered, not at all worried that her luggage would disappear.

Who would steal something that would cause trouble to themselves and bring no profit?

She was still searching for the lost luggage around the gate of the courtyard. She turned her head inadvertently and almost bumped into Xu Yan who came out of another door.

...When did Xu Yan leave the house?

Su Wanwan subconsciously looked towards the room where the light came from. Wasn't that the room the young man had led them into just now? She went out to get her luggage. When did Xu Yan come out?

Thinking about it, Su Wanwan turned back, looked at the road Xu Yan came from, and the dark room behind him, and blinked slightly.

"Why didn't you ask me to help carry such heavy things?" Su Wanwan secretly observed Xu Yan's expression and said with pretended blame.

"Can you move it?" Xu Yan asked.

"Oh, then let's carry it together," she recalled. It was she and her father who worked together to carry the bag to Secretary Wang's office!

As soon as Bai Luwei entered the door, he asked a series of questions: "Did the captain say when we would start working? How are the labor points here calculated?" Countless questions surged in his mind.

"Deputy team leader Feng just mentioned that you should have a good rest tonight, and you may start working in the team tomorrow morning. As for work points, it seems that young people get about 1.5 times as many points as others. As for daily necessities, you can also ask the production team for them." The respondent explained.

"Wow, that's great." Bai Luwei was overjoyed to hear that he could get half of the village's previous income. For him, such work points were already quite good, and he did not excessively pursue more work points like others.

The person in charge finally finished Bai Luwei's barrage of questions, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and left the courtyard.

Only Su Wanwan and the other three were left in the center of the courtyard. As a matter of course, accommodation was arranged for them. Su Wanwan shared a room with Li Meifen, while Xu Yan shared a room with Bai Luwei.

Inside the house, Bai Luwei and Li Meifen seemed to be in sync with each other. After simply giving each other a salute, they walked out of the house together, collected their luggage from the ox cart, and went back to their rooms.

Outside the yard, no one seemed to care about the ox. Since it was not led to the pasture, it could only spend the night hungry. When the village chief came back early tomorrow morning, he might be able to find food for it and drive it back to the village.

Because Xu Yan had helped move the luggage into the room, Su Wanwan also followed Li Meifen into the room to prepare to pack the luggage.

The layout of this house remains the same as before. The second room also has a kang of similar size. The stove is placed near the door, and there is even a pile of small wood blocks on the table, which should be used for making fire.

"Where do you want to sleep on the bed?" Li Meifen, who was familiar with collective life, quickly put away her simple clothes and asked Wanwan.

"It doesn't matter, it'll be by the door." Su Wanwan said as she opened the huge package and took out her personal belongings one by one.

Compared to Li Meifen who only brought a few sets of clothes and basic toiletries, her luggage was extremely rich...

While taking out the items, Wanwan felt her cheeks getting a little hot.

"Your mother is so nice. She packed so many good things for you." Li Meifen said.

Su Wanwan lit a dim kerosene lamp. At this time, Li Meifen noticed the various items that Wanwan took out of her bag, most of which were not practical. The educated youth in their village often couldn't afford these trivial items. If they really bought them, they might have to live frugally. Su Wanwan gently lowered her eyelashes.

As Li Meifen said, many of the items in front of Su Wanwan were actually meaningless. For example, the vanishing cream and hand cream that Su Zhan had given her were casually placed by her stove.

"Well, I told my mother not to prepare too many of these things, but she still got a bunch of useless ones." When she took out the second enamel cup of the same style, she felt deeply helpless.

"Go to bed early. Who knows if you'll be busy tomorrow?" Li Meifen looked at the things with a complicated expression, then took off her shoes, covered herself with the newly spread sheets and lay down. The distance between the two of them was kept at one meter.

At night, after dealing with all the supplies her mother gave her and putting away those things that would not be used in the short term, Su Wanwan quietly washed up, folded her clothes and placed them on the wooden stool beside the bed before falling asleep peacefully.

She said to herself, "Rumor has it in the village that the village chief's family is well-off, but I've never really seen it. Seeing you take out these things today, your cumbersome movements before going to bed are different from those of ordinary people like us and educated youth. It seems that the rumors are true."

Just as she fell asleep, Li Meifen unexpectedly said, "It's just that the living habits are different." She turned over lightly and casually.

"That also requires some understanding of this habit. In the village, people who were born and raised there don't understand these hygiene requirements. Paying attention to makeup and skin care is usually a habit of city girls. Zhong Qingqing in our dormitory is like this. She lights candles every night and stays up late to do beauty treatments. I don't know what she paints on her face."

If Li Meifen's words before only made Su Wanwan feel that she was a little jealous, her words now showed her true intentions - Li Meifen was not only unfriendly to Zhong Qingqing, but as an exchange youth, she seemed to be trying to bring this hostility over. Although she didn't care about Li Meifen and didn't know her background or why she was targeting her, Su Wanwan didn't intend to show weakness easily.

"Things like snoring and grinding teeth while sleeping are personal habits. If you can't accept them, you can apply for a room change. The production team takes such issues very seriously." Her calm response caused the air to fall into a moment of silence, as unfamiliar as the calmness in her words.

"That's right, but have you heard the rumors about Zhong Qingqing? Those things between her and Yan Wenxuan..." Li Meifen continued.
