Eating melons

The well issue had been arranged, but there was still the matter of the toilet. Jiang Qi didn't want to run so far to use the toilet in the middle of winter, especially at night.

Jiang Qi: "Also, should we build a toilet? Honestly, the toilet at the Youth Farm is full of maggots in the summer. If you flush twice, the water will splash all over you. Going to the toilet is like going to war. And winter is so far away. Can we build one ourselves?

Of course, if you build it yourself, you have to build it a little better. After all, we don’t know how many years we will stay here. Dig the pit deeper and cover it with stone slabs instead of wood. This way it will be convenient to flush it with water in the summer."

When Jiang Qi mentioned the toilet, everyone frowned. Fortunately, the meal had been finished and the dishes had been cleared away.

There's nothing we can do about it. The toilets at the educated youth institute are just too exaggerated and scary!

There were already a lot of people in the educated youth center, and most of them were not very particular. Those who were particular would occasionally keep the place clean, but if they were asked to do it all the time, they would not be able to do it.

As for being dirty, you'll get used to it slowly.

So when Jiang Qi mentioned building a toilet, Li Zhibin nodded without a second thought, and so did Xiao Xuemu. There was nothing they could do; the restrooms at the Youth Hostel were unbearable.

Jiang Qi: "Okay, in that case, when we get back from the county tomorrow, Weiwei will go discuss it with Liu Jiaojiao and the others. You two can go ask the team leader. After all, building a toilet requires materials, and digging a well does too."

As for her, she naturally cooked at home because the four of them had to eat! It was almost time to cook when the ox cart returned from the county town.

I have to go back to work the day after tomorrow! Although most of the autumn harvest is almost done, there is still a lot left to be harvested, and there is still a lot of work to be done! For example, the mountains of corn in the drying yard still need to be shelled!

Li Zhibin: "Okay."

After dinner, Wei Wei went back home. The first thing she did after washing up was to check her own small treasury.

She easily earned a hundred today. Although she bought a lot of things for Jiang Qi in the past two months, Jiang Qi also gave her a lot of money, and she also bought a lot of vegetables and dried goods.

Of course, she also bought a lot of things for Jiang Qi, such as underwear, but she was also very careful when buying them. She didn't dare to buy anything with sponges, and the styles were also in line with the times.

The rest were socks and underwear. Neither of them knew how to make clothes, but they still bought a lot of clothes and shoes.

Now that autumn has arrived, she has started buying skin care products, such as vanishing cream, elegant cream, soap, and shampoo powder.

There is no way. This place is too far away from the county town, and there is nothing in the town. There is only a small supply and marketing cooperative, and there is little vanishing cream, mostly clam oil.

In addition to these, there are also small stoves, one for each of us. Of course, we bought the styles that are available at this time, and they also have environmentally friendly carbon.

Everyone thought the two of them were burning charcoal in the small stove they bought, which is the carbon made from burning firewood. In fact, they were burning environmentally friendly charcoal.

I originally planned to burn coal, but I found that the coal slag was difficult to deal with, so I had to burn charcoal.

Not only that, Wei Wei prepared everything she could think of for Jiang Qi, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, flashlight, and even an alarm clock and lunch box, because Jiang Qi didn't have a lunch box. The alarm clock was something Jiang Qi asked for after seeing her.

What we usually buy the most is food, mainly vegetables. Now the two of us can’t eat openly, we will be able to do so after the winter.

Of the two of them, Jiang Qi has cooking skills, she has the ingredients, and doesn't have to work. She just hopes that she doesn't gain too much weight.

Although she gave a lot of things to Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi also gave her a lot of things. Just counting the things sold to the system, she sold more than a thousand, and there were still many things at home that she had not sold.

In addition, she also received a lot of money. She counted the cash and found that Wei Wei had given her fifty yuan when he first went to the countryside, and he also sent her another fifty yuan.

At that time, I got 100 yuan when I signed up Wei Lai and Wei Bao to go to the countryside, and I also took a lot from Wei's family. I spent so much money in the countryside, but now my savings have not decreased but increased a lot.

It was the end of June when we went to the countryside. My husband weeded for more than half a month. Not long after, it was the autumn harvest for more than two months. Now it is October.

But she still has more than 400 and nearly 500 yuan now, and she believes that she will definitely break the 500 yuan mark this year.

Not only that, although she spent more than 800 yuan in the system mall today, she still has more than 2,700 yuan. Her goal this year is to exceed 10,000 yuan. She just hopes that she can make a lot of money when she stocks up in a few days so that she can have money to spend during the winter.

The next morning, Wei Wei got up only after the alarm clock rang twice. She couldn't get on time to catch the bus, so she got up very early on purpose.

Xiao Xuemu was surprised at first when he saw the two people carrying so many bags, but he soon understood. After all, they had bought a lot of dry goods in the brigade, and many people knew about it. Moreover, they each had two large sacks, both of which were sent to their families.

The two of them hurried forward to help carry it. Wei Wei didn't dare let them carry the sack containing the cotton clothes. Although it was filled with a lot of dry goods, it was still very light.

Jiang Qi packed the things randomly. He put quilts in each of the four sacks and pressed each sack tightly again and again until it was full.

Jiang Qi glanced at the door of Liu Jiaojiao and Wu Mei. There was no movement inside. "Should we call them? If it's too late, there will be no seats left. They won't leave until six o'clock. It's only a little after five now. Isn't it too early to call them?"

Wei Wei thought for a moment and said, "Let me call them! If there are no seats left, they definitely won't go. But it would still be embarrassing if they saw us two with seats."

After saying that, Wei Wei went to knock on Wu Mei's door, "Wu Mei, Wu Mei, are you awake? Get up, if you go too late there will be no seats left."

After a while, Wu Mei's voice was heard from inside, "Get up, get up."

Wei Wei called Liu Jiaojiao again in the same way, and Li Zhibin saw Wei Wei doing this and also called Yu Xi.

When they heard that they woke up, the four of them ignored them and picked up their things and went to get on the ox cart.

The things in the sacks were all dry goods and not heavy, so it was no problem for Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu to carry two in each hand.

When they arrived at the oxcart, because they had arrived very early, although many people had already arrived, there were still seats available, so the four of them hurriedly got on the cart and sat down.

After sitting down, Jiang Qi took out a few sweet potatoes from his bag and shared them among the four of them. They were all specially steamed yesterday afternoon and saved for eating this morning.

They knew yesterday that Jiang Qi and the others had made breakfast for today, and they hadn't eaten anything, but they ended up eating it.

Although two sweet potatoes are not enough for one person, we still need to have breakfast when we go to the county town to send things, so now it is just to fill our stomachs.

Although the four of them were eating sweet potatoes, it did not stop the aunts and sisters-in-law on the ox cart from being curious about them.

"Wow! Jiang Zhiqing, there are so many things! They must be sent to your family! What did you send?"

Jiang Qi smiled when he heard this. "These are all things I exchanged with the aunties in the village. There are some chestnuts and dried fruits, some dried sweet potatoes and wild fruits, and the rest are dried mushrooms, dried vegetables, and vermicelli. You can't help but buy everything in the city. Unlike in the countryside, there are plenty of vegetables in the private plots."

"That's right. Everything is expensive in the city. Even drinking water costs money. These vegetables are only two cents a pound in the countryside and no one wants them. But in the city, you can't even grab them."

"Jiang Zhiqing, Wei Zhiqing, do you still want this kind of dry goods? Auntie's family has plenty."

"That's right, Li Zhiqing, Xiao Zhiqing, you still want some! Auntie has quite a few at home, and each one is big and clean."

"I have a lot of dried fruits at my house, you can come and buy them if you want."

The ladies here were talking animatedly, and a few people didn't know how to interrupt them. Just then, Liu Jiaojiao and the other two arrived.

Wei Wei: "Jiaojiao, come here quickly, there's almost no room left."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao pulled Wu Mei and ran over quickly.

Liu Jiaojiao: "You guys came so early! Why did you bring so many things?"

"These are the dry goods they sent home! Liu Zhiqing, Wu Zhiqing, Yu Zhiqing, would you like to buy some? I have plenty of these at home! And they're cheap."

Liu Jiaojiao os: I will buy it, but I can’t buy yours. Accountant Zhou has a lot at home too!

But she couldn't say this so carelessly, otherwise she would make the accountant's wife hate her.

So she pretended not to hear it. She was not the only one in the car who felt the same way. All seven educated youth in the car acted the same way. They just pretended not to hear it.
