Rebirth of a Little Cannon Fodder

The next morning, Qiao Chuchu got up early and made breakfast for Ma Ning to apologize.

Looking at the golden millet porridge, fragrant egg pancakes and a small plate of pickles on the table, Ma Ning said that she forgave Qiao Chuchu.

Looking at Ma Ning eating with relish, Qiao Chuchu felt that the world of foodies was really simple.

After dinner, the two of them took a ox cart to the county.

"Okay, we're here now. We'll gather here at 3pm to return to the team. Anyone who's late will have to walk back on their own."

In fact, Qiao Chuchu could have come by bicycle, but when she thought about how many things the two of them had to buy, she decided to take a ox cart. After all, she would be less tired that way.

After getting off the ox cart, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

As expected, there was not much cotton in the supply and marketing cooperative. The annual output of this stuff was not much, and the amount allocated to this small county was even less. Add to that the part that the supply and marketing cooperative kept for itself, and there was really not much left to buy.

The two bought all the cotton from the supply and marketing cooperative and decided to go to the black market to take a look.

In fact, neither of them had been to the black market, but fortunately the county town was not big, and Qiao Chuchu had 009 in her hand, so the two found the black market half an hour later.

"Stop, what are you doing here? Someone is stopping the two of you at the door."

"We're here to buy cotton."

The person at the door looked them up and down and let them in.

"Chu Chu, look, there are so many things for sale here!"

"There are quite a lot. As expected of a black market, the goods are very complete. Even the supply and marketing cooperatives can't compare."

The two of them started walking around and soon found someone selling cotton, but they didn't expect it to be a young child.

"Sister, are you going to buy cotton? If you have a cotton coupon, it's 3 cents a pound, and if you don't have a coupon, it's 4 cents a pound. This price is indeed a bit higher than the supply and marketing cooperative, but there's nothing we can do because the supply and marketing cooperative is out of stock. Fortunately, we can afford it."

"I don't have a ticket, give me 10 kilograms."

"Okay, that's 4 yuan in total. Take it."

After buying the cotton, the two of them were not in a hurry and went shopping again.

"Chu Chu, look, isn't that Lin Zhiqing over there?"

"Really? It looks like he's selling something there."

"No wonder Li Zhiqing said that this Lin Zhiqing often came to the county and rarely stayed at the Zhiqing site. He even asked the team leader to help with the house construction and rarely went there himself."

"Really?" It seems this otherworldly soul is working very hard. She stopped dating the male protagonist and started her own business.

They both saw Lin Xue, and Lin Xue also saw them

Then they saw Lin Xue packing her bag and walking towards them, whispering, "Qiao Zhiqing, Ma Zhiqing, how about we have a meal together? It's almost noon."

If the Lin Xue in front of her was still the same person in her previous life, Qiao Chuchu would definitely not have any contact with her, but now she should try to contact the Lin Xue in front of her.

"Okay, it just so happens that Ma Zhiqing and I are hungry too."

The three of them went directly to the state-owned restaurant.

"Qiao Zhiqing, Ma Zhiqing, what would you like to eat? I'll treat you at noon."

Lin Xue is now more confident because she has made a lot of money in the black market. Treating guests is a piece of cake for her now. In addition, she has a good impression of Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning. These two people are different from the other educated youth in the Youth House.

Ever since she came into this world, she has always been alone. There are indeed people of the opposite sex who show interest in her, but she has no friends of the same sex.

If possible, she wanted to try to get in touch with these two people to see if they could become friends. After all, she was a lone ranger before coming to this world. Although she was free that way, humans are social animals after all, so she still hopes to have friends.

"Then I'll have one serving of braised pork, one serving of braised fish, one vegetable dish, and three bowls of rice."

"We agreed in advance that the meal will be shared by the three of us." Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning didn't want to take advantage of Lin Xue.

Besides, with the financial situation of two people, it is still possible to go out to eat occasionally.

Lin Xue also understood what Qiao Chuchu meant and agreed with a smile, "Then let's split it equally."

After paying the bill, the three of them found a place to sit down.

"Pick up the food on the 25th."

These days, there are no waiters in state-owned restaurants to bring your dishes to the table. You just listen to your number being called and go to the food counter to get your food.

It must be said that the braised pork in this state-owned restaurant is really good, fat but not greasy, and the braised fish is also delicious. The three of them ate in silence and finished all three dishes in a short while.

"Lin Zhiqing, are you going back?"

"No, today's goods are almost sold out, so I won't go this afternoon."

The three of them understood each other tacitly. Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning did not curiously ask Lin Xue why she had the channels to sell goods on the black market, and Lin Xue did not ask how they went to the black market.

When they arrived at the ox cart, there was still some time before three o'clock, so the three of them waited on the ox cart for the time to set off.

But I didn't expect to see Zhang Wan among the people returning.

"Sister Xiaowan, are you off today? Are you sick?"

"It's Chuchu." Zhang Wan's face didn't look very good: "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired from the exams recently."

There were a lot of people in the car, and it was not a good time to talk. Zhang Wan didn't say much, and Qiao Chuchu didn't ask much either.

At three o'clock, the old boss got on the ox cart and drove it back.

But I didn’t expect that just when we were about to set off, Xinghua would also come to ride in the ox cart.

This is really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. Qiao Chuchu said that she probably knew why Sister Xiaowan looked so unhappy.

"Xiao Wan, you haven't forgiven me yet, Brother Dashan and I didn't mean to hurt you."

These words have a strong flavor of tea.

"Xinghua, your affairs with Song Dashan have nothing to do with me, so it's not a question of forgiveness or not."

"Brother Dashan wants to work as a temporary worker in your factory, why don't you help him?"

"I've made it very clear. I'm just an ordinary worker. I don't have that much power. If Song Dashan wants to be a worker, he can find a way himself."

"Xiaowan you..."

"Hey, Li girl, you're quite interesting! If your husband wants to be a worker, then let him be. Why can't he be one without Xiaowan's help? What kind of logic is that?"

The person who was speaking was Aunt Cuihua's old sister. She didn't have a good impression of Li Xinghua, so she was naturally rude in her words.

"Aunt, no, I just thought that Xiaowan was a worker. There must be a way."

"Li Xinghua, you don't need to rely on me for anything. Don't say I don't have any connections. Even if I did, I would definitely ask my own brothers for help. Why would I help your man?"

"Xiao Wan, how did you become like this? You were obviously not like this before."

"Oh, what was I like before? Tell me about it."

Seeing Zhang Wan's indifference, Li Xinghua started to play the friendship card: "Xiao Wan, aren't we friends?"

"Li Xinghua, you think we are friends, but you are getting involved with my fiancé. I am really afraid of friends like you." This time Zhang Wan was not going to give Li Xinghua any face. After all, she had no shame, so why should she give her any face?

"Xiaowan, you..." Li Xinghua didn't expect that Zhang Wan would tell her about her and Song Dashan so directly. How could she do that?
