Eating melons

Wu Mei's family background was similar to theirs, both were average, but she hung out with the new educated youth, built a house, and lived a pretty good life, so they were quite envious.

If you have the ability to live outside, who would want to live together with so many people?

Where there are people, there is competition and struggle. To outsiders, they seem to be quite harmonious and have a good relationship.

But in fact, most people’s relationships are just like this, they are just relationships based on face.

The new educated youth had no idea about the twists and turns of the old educated youth.

Everyone is busy now, and it should be said that the male educated youth on the new educated youth side are busy.

I am preparing the dishes to take to the Youth League Institute for dinner.

But Wei Wei and the other three were not idle either. They had prepared all kinds of food and drinks.

The drink was boiled brown sugar sweet wine, which contained not only wine but also fruit, and the frozen pears had melted a lot.

Xiao Xuemu also took out a bottle of Moutai, which made Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's eyes light up.

At this time, Moutai was something legendary to them. It was not something they could afford, nor was it something they could get their hands on.

When Wei Wei saw the bottle of Moutai, she reflexively scanned it with the system.

Seeing the price of 150,000, Wei Wei was stunned and immediately discussed the matter with Jiang Qi secretly.

Jiang Qi was also shocked when she heard the price. Sorry, they were really just country bumpkins.

They are both crazy. They were thinking about ginseng before, but didn't think about wine. They think wine can also be sold!

Now Wei Wei can be said to be regretting her decision. A wine ticket is only worth a hundred yuan in the system, and a bottle of wine is only about ten or twenty yuan.

Buying a bottle of wine and selling it for 150,000 yuan would cost them, but the two of them chose to dig wild vegetables.

It seems that neither of them is in love, so why do they like digging wild vegetables so much?

Are they both potentially in love? Absolutely not!

However, Wei Wei was also cautious and secretly searched the system for the price of the wine.

Look at this, wow, it’s priced at three hundred thousand.

This system is indeed a high-tech product of the future. It really has the nature of a profiteer and can really make money. One resale brings in 150,000 yuan.

She seemed to have found another way to make money, but Wei Wei was not very eager to sell this kind of thing.

Of course, compared to ginseng, Wei Wei would rather sell this.

But they are not short of money now, so there seems to be no need to sell this. They can wait until they are short of money in the future. After all, this thing makes money quickly.

It was almost four o'clock, approaching five o'clock, and several people came over with things. The chicken and fish were indeed big, and they were packed in two basins.

After the installation was completed, the seven of them walked towards the Youth League Institute with flashlights.

As soon as I entered the house, I smelled the aroma of the food. It was different from the bland meal I had when I first came to the Red Star Brigade.

Judging from the portions of dishes on the table, the quantity is not impressive, but the cooking skills are still pretty good this time.

In fact, many of the old educated youth are quite good at cooking. Before, it could only be said that a good cook cannot cook without rice.

There is nothing, no matter how good their cooking skills are, there is nothing for them to show off.

But it’s different during the Chinese New Year. All kinds of delicious food and the meat we usually eat are brought out.

This kind of good thing that is rarely seen in daily life naturally requires the best cooking skills to be used, otherwise the good thing will be wasted.

Therefore, as soon as I stepped into the house, I smelled the strong fragrance in the house.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi raised their eyebrows in surprise when they smelled the fragrance, but they were only surprised for a moment and then disappeared.

Seeing the dishes on the table, the two frowned again. There were two dishes on the table, one was pork and sauerkraut stewed with vermicelli, and the other was stir-fried meat with chili peppers. The meat should be wild boar meat.

But the portion is still quite big, a full bowl, but this large portion means that if there are only a few people eating it, then the portion is still quite big.

But now there are more than twenty people, and the portion is a bit too much to handle. It feels like it will be gone after each person picks up one chopstick.

Besides, it’s already this time, so I think the dishes should be almost ready, and there shouldn’t be much left.

Thinking of this, Wei Wei, Jiang Qi, Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao all frowned.

No wonder Xiao Xuemu, Li Zhibin and Yu Xi told them not to prepare anything.

Compared with the old educated youth, what the seven of them prepared was really great!

Xiao Xuemu, Li Zhibin and Yu Xi had already guessed this would happen, but they didn't think much about it because they had no hope in the first place.

If there are no meat dishes later, and only these two meat dishes are used, even if the staple food of the old educated youth is pure white flour pork dumplings.

The amount of meat contributed by the more than ten old educated youth was not as much as the amount of meat contributed by the seven new educated youth.

Seeing the seven people coming, Liu Yang and Li Hong hurried out to greet them.

"Yu Zhiqing, you're here. Come and sit down. We'll be ready to eat soon. We only have two more dishes to go."

Hearing this, Wei Wei, Jiang Qi, Liu Jiaojiao and Wu Mei all thought to themselves that it was a good thing that they had a dinner together later.

In this situation, even if there are two dishes and staple food, they will definitely not be full with so many people.

It's Chinese New Year, and not only can't we eat well, we can't even eat enough. This is too funny.

It would be fine if they really had no money or things, but this year can be said to be a bumper year for the Red Star Brigade.

Even the new educated youth like Wei Wei could have a good New Year with the money they earned from work points, not to mention the old educated youth who had worked for a year.

That money is definitely much more than what the new educated youth have, so now they are simply reluctant to give it away.

Seeing this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi felt gloomy in their hearts, and both of them were almost suffering from paranoia.

The two even suspected that these old educated youth were deliberately trying to trick them, the new educated youth, and wanted to make them the scapegoats so that they could take advantage of them.

It's not that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi deliberately meant to be so dark, but it's really hard not to be suspicious of what the old educated youth did.

Which kind person would do such a thing? They invited them to celebrate the New Year, and only gave them this little bit of food.

There are twice as many people on the old educated youth side as there are on the new educated youth side.

But the output of the old educated youth is only half of that of the new educated youth. If it is not to take advantage, then what is the purpose? They really can't think of it.

After waiting for a while, the old educated youth came out with two dishes.

A scrambled egg, a large bowl of frozen cabbage and a bowl of sauce, which seemed to contain eggs, like egg sauce.

After eating two bowls of eggs, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were already a little confused.

Now Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were even more convinced that they were here to take advantage of them and treat them as suckers.

Even Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao had such doubts. Liu Jiaojiao had never felt comfortable with the old educated youth.

Wu Mei knew that most of these old people came from poor families, but she didn't expect that they would do something like this this time.

You know, among the new educated youth, she is the one who needs money the most.

She had only been here for half a year, her family was not well-off to begin with, and yet she had been cheated out of so much money.

She also knew the brigade's work points this year, which were very valuable, so those old educated youth must have money.

Their money wasn't twice as much as hers, but at least it was more than a hundred yuan per person.

So these old educated youths were not short of money. They didn’t need tickets to buy things in the brigade, as long as they had money. So they were simply reluctant to spend the money.

Having no money and being reluctant to spend money in order to get something for nothing are two different things. You have to know that the seven of them were having dinner together tonight, and even though Wu Mei was so short of money, she still bought a chicken.

Wu Mei saw that everyone contributed something, and they were all good things. She felt embarrassed to eat for free, so she also contributed a chicken.

Although her chicken was the least valuable compared to what Wei Wei and the others gave, it was also her greatest token of appreciation.

After all, in addition to fish, braised meat and wild boar meat, Yu Xi and Liu Jiaojiao also had a duck.

The main reason they spent so much was that they had already had a meal at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin's, and the food was so good, but they didn't contribute anything, which made them feel a little embarrassed.

Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin contributed a goose, mutton and a bottle of wine.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi brought out bacon, mushroom and pork white flour dumplings, brown sugar wine, frozen pears, and some dried vegetables, all of which were special dried vegetables from the south.

It seems that her chicken is the least valuable, but it is also a token of her thoughtfulness.

However, Wu Mei found that the chicken she produced alone was not much different from what the old educated youth produced together.

So these old educated youth are really stingy. No wonder Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao were so dissatisfied with them at the beginning.

Now it seems that they are really not worth associating with. After hanging out with Wei Wei, Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao for a long time, Wu Mei's view on making friends has been affected and changed.
