Gao Jianguo sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) looking at his underwear with disbelief.

It was as if he had never experienced this before.

Recalling the scenes from his dream, his lower abdomen involuntarily warmed up again.

His head was full of yellow waste.

Old Chen was having a nice breakfast outside when Gao Jianguo rushed out of his room, ran into the yard, grabbed a bucket of water, and poured it over himself.

"Are you crazy? Why are you taking a bath so early in the morning?" Old Chen said sarcastically from the side.

"Grandpa, young man, you're full of energy, you don't understand." Gao Jianguo said as he went into the house. Once the 'fire' was extinguished, there was no need to extinguish it again.

"You little brat, your grandpa was young once too," Old Chen said, taking off his shoe and throwing it at Gao Jianguo.

"Can't hit me, can't hit me." Gao Jianguo nimbly dodged his grandfather's shoe and didn't forget to turn his head and make a face at his grandfather.

"You little brat, you're driving me crazy!" Grandpa Chen was so angry he wanted to take off his other shoes and throw them at him.

Gao Jianguo closed his door and changed his clothes without a second thought.

Grandpa Chen was outside cursing his own little brat.

After changing his clothes, Gao Jianguo opened the door, picked up his grandfather's shoes, and placed them beside his feet, saying, "Grandpa, I'm going out now. If you're bored, go next door and find Grandpa Zhang to play chess and chat."

Where are you going? Are you coming home for dinner tonight?

"I'm not going back," Gao Jianguo said, waving his hand.

Youth Quarter

Shang Yanfang woke up and glanced at her watch. It was 8:30. She immediately sat up, still groggy.

Looking around and seeing that there was no one there, she wondered why Li Zhaodi hadn't called her today.

She usually has trouble getting up in the morning and it's always Li Zhaodi who wakes her up.

I hurriedly put on my shoes, ready to wash up and go to work, but as soon as I took a step, "Ouch, that hurts!"

The pain in her ankle brought back memories of what had happened the night before.

She took the day off today and doesn't have to go to work. Plus, she's the only one resting at the educated youth settlement today.

She finally remembered that space she had forgotten for so long.

Living together in a communal environment almost made her forget that she still had her own space.

With a thought, she took out a can of iced cola from her spatial storage.

As she opened the Coke, the familiar sound of bubbles sent her adrenaline soaring.

He picked up the Coke and gulped down many mouthfuls.

He couldn't help but sigh, "Ah...it feels so good, it's still the same taste, it hasn't changed at all."

He finished the whole can of ice-cold Coke in just a few gulps.

She put the empty bottle back in her storage space and took out all sorts of junk food she had stockpiled, such as chicken legs, spicy strips, potato chips, and sunflower seeds, and placed them on the bed.

I carefully got out of bed and walked to the door, peeking out but seeing no one on either side. I locked the door from the inside.

"Phew, I can finally be free for a while."

He threw himself onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and began to eat voraciously.

The saying "extreme joy begets sorrow" seems to apply here. Her foot accidentally bumped into the cabinet next to her, and the pain in her ankle brought her back to her senses.

He took out the medicine box he had prepared from his spatial storage.

I found a bruise spray and sprayed it on both ankles.

She, who used to be able to jump around, suddenly found it difficult to even get out of bed.

The more I think about it, the sadder I feel. How could this happen?

The more upset she became, the more she decided to let go of the pain and stop thinking about it.

If you don't think about it, you won't be sad anymore, right?

To cheer herself up, she picked up a bag of spicy strips from the bed and started munching on them.

The rich aroma of the spicy strips made her drool almost drip from the corner of her mouth.

Thinking of the irresistible aroma of spicy strips, she climbed to the window facing the backyard and opened it.

She was afraid that when her roommates came back, they would still smell the spicy snacks.

She still remembers when she was in junior high school and lived in a dormitory, whenever there were spicy snacks in a particular dormitory on the same floor, her classmates would locate them precisely, as if they had the noses of dogs.

Continue until all the spicy strips are eaten.

As she thought about it, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

In her past life, her biggest regret was not going to university. In this life, she has been preparing for two years and is determined to be among the first batch of students to be admitted to university.

As she ate snacks and dreamed of the future, she wished this moment could pass more slowly, much more slowly.

Little did she know, Gao Jianguo on the back hill had been watching her for a very long time, though he couldn't see her very clearly.

"Shang Zhiqing, Shang Zhiqing, are you there?"

The sudden sound startled Shang Yanfang so much that she almost jumped up.

He used his mind to store all the snacks on the bed into his spatial storage before saying, "Captain, I'm here. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Shang Zhiqing, you don't need to open the door. I just wanted to tell you that it's your turn to cook tomorrow, along with He Zhiqing."

"Your leg is injured, open the window. I'll bring you the food when it's ready."

"Okay, Captain. Thank you."

Shang Yanfang's heart almost jumped out of her chest in fright.

We need to hurry up and build the house. Otherwise, if she gets another fright like this, she'll definitely develop a heart condition.

Sitting on the bed to calm myself down, I checked everything again and found nothing that didn't fit the era, so I confidently climbed to the window and opened it.

Team leader Liu Guoqiang came over with the food he had given her, and saw her sitting there blankly, lost in thought.

"Shang Zhiqing, aren't you bored sitting like this?"

"good."

"It's alright, that's fine. I was thinking that if you were bored, I could lend you my high school textbooks."

As Liu Jianguo spoke, he handed the lunchbox to Shang Yanfang.

Shang Yanfang immediately said anxiously, "Captain, Captain, I'm so bored, I'm so bored."

He nodded vigorously twice as he spoke, to prove that he was indeed very bored.

"Then I'll get you two high school textbooks?" Liu Jianguo said, glancing at Shang Yanfang.

He assumed the young woman had just graduated from high school and didn't want to look at her textbooks anymore, and was just being polite.

"Okay, thank you, Captain."

Seeing that the little girl was very happy, Liu Jianguo went to get her two textbooks.

"See? We're going to work now," Captain Liu said before heading back to his job.

Gao Jianguo, who was on the back hill, saw the young educated youth lying by the window, seemingly chatting with someone, and he stayed there for a long time.

He felt a little uncomfortable, and his feet seemed to have a mind of their own as he walked toward the educated youth settlement.

She only realized she had arrived at the educated youth settlement when she reached it.

I paced back and forth at the entrance several times, hesitating about whether or not I should go into the educated youth settlement.

In the end, the woman's emotions prevailed over reason.

He entered the educated youth settlement with a death-defying spirit.

After entering the educated youth settlement, he saw the little girl eating her meal while leaning against the window.

The little girl couldn't eat her meal because she had eaten too many snacks. Looking up, wondering what to do, she saw Gao Jianguo.

"Have you eaten?" she asked instinctively.
