Time Travel: Volume 1! Starting from a Small Mountain Village

When the group arrived at the East Bay Brigade, it was almost noon; they simply couldn't keep up with the pace.

When the seven girls appeared in the village, they caused a sensation among the villagers, especially some of the boys who stared at them and kept whistling.

"Go away, go away! Haven't any of you ever seen a girl before?" The captain stopped the group from approaching.

"I've seen them before, but I've never seen one so beautiful and fresh. I wish I could marry her!" a teasing voice rang out.

"Liu Ergou, if you keep this up, believe me, I'll tell your dad to come home and break your legs!"

"Get home, all of you!" The captain commanded, asserting his authority, and ordered the men to leave.

"Ahem!" Turning to the several female educated youths whose faces were flushed from the teasing, he said, "I'm sorry you had to see this. Country folks have never seen anything like this."

"However, they only talk the talk; this kind of thing happens all the time in the countryside, it's no big deal!"

"Now that you've gone to the countryside, you'll be working alongside the villagers. You'll get used to it over time!"

"Our villagers are generally very simple and honest, although there are some exceptions. In the future, when you live in the village, try not to go out alone!"

As they were talking, the oxcart stopped in front of a house!

"This is the educated youth settlement. You'll be living here from now on!" Following the direction the brigade leader pointed, Long Lifan looked around the building and overall felt it was quite nice!

"This place used to belong to a landlord, but it was abandoned after liberation and later used as a settlement for educated youth!"

"By the way, there are a few former educated youth living here. If you have any problems, you can ask them first. If they can't solve them, then come to me."

"You must be the new educated youth!" Just as the brigade leader left, a man and a woman appeared at the courtyard gate, drawing everyone's attention. The group nodded in response.

"I heard from the villagers on the way here that seven female educated youths have come this time, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true!" The male educated youth smiled and looked at the crowd:

"By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Hongjie, I'm from Haishi, I'm 22 years old, and I've been working in the countryside for four years now. I'm the head of the educated youth settlement!"

"By the way, this is Yu, a former educated youth who has been sent to the countryside for three years. If you ladies have any questions, you can ask her first!" He said, pointing to the female educated youth next to him.

"Yu Zhiqing, why don't you take them to find some beds first?"

"Alright! Follow me!"

"We have five large rooms here. The two on the left are where the female educated youth lived! The two on the right are where the male educated youth lived! The middle one is the kitchen."

"I really didn't expect that all the people who came this time were female educated youth. Fortunately, one room can sleep five people, so we can manage to stay!"

"Now you guys discuss it, those two will stay in our room!"

The group exchanged glances, and then the woman named Yang Lijuan spoke up, saying, "My cousin and I can move in!"

Yang Lijuan and Yang Qianqian are cousins ​​from a family of modest means. Their trip to the countryside together was partly for mutual support, and fortunately, they were assigned to the same production brigade!

Yang Lijuan herself has a fiery temper, like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment. Yang Qianqian, on the other hand, is much quieter; she hasn't said a word the entire way!

She figured it out; apart from the two sisters, the others seemed to know each other. Since that was the case, she didn't want to break them up! Besides, sharing a room with the older educated youth would allow her to better understand the Dongwan Brigade, since they had been in the countryside for several years and definitely knew more than they did.

"I'm OK!"

"I don't have any objection either!"

Yu Xiulian pushed open the door, and a pungent odor wafted out. Somewhat embarrassed, she said, "That's how this house is; it gets smelly if no one lives there for a long time. You can take this opportunity to clean it thoroughly!"

"You two come with me, I'll take you to our room!" With that, Yu Xiulian led the Yang sisters to the next room, leaving the others looking at each other in bewilderment!

"Alright, everyone, let's get started, otherwise how are we going to sleep tonight!" Long Lifan looked at the group's dazed expressions and then began to make arrangements!

Lin Yue was instructed to borrow some cleaning tools from the educated youth next door! The others also took rags and started wiping, some took basins, some fetched water, and some swept the floor. Under Long Lifan's arrangement, the girls did a pretty good job!

After half an hour of cleaning, the room is completely transformed, except for a lingering smell. Now that the door is open, the smell should dissipate considerably by tonight!

Yu, the educated youth, walked over at this moment. Looking at the room that the group had cleaned, she couldn't help but smile: "I must say, this room has really changed a lot after you guys cleaned it!"

"Oh, right, I came to invite you guys out for dinner, and also to get to know each other. After all, we're all former educated youth, and we need to stick together in this unfamiliar place!"

"You've just arrived and haven't received your rations yet. This meal is a welcome feast hosted by us old educated youth. You can go to the brigade leader and the others this afternoon to collect your rations."

"However, these rations are considered a loan, and you will need to repay them in the future!"

"Ah, we still have to pay it back!" Liu Pandi thought she could get free rations from the village, but when she heard Yu Zhiqing say this, she was immediately unhappy!

"Of course, food is so precious these days." "However, as long as you work hard in the future, you can pay it back with work points!" Yu Xiulian and the other educated youth had just arrived, so she explained carefully! She left after finishing speaking!

After the educated youth left, Long Lifan took out a piece of cured meat from her bag. It was meat her grandfather had specially given him by a comrade-in-arms, knowing she was going to the countryside!

"Long Zhiqing, why are you taking the dried meat?" Lin Yue asked, noticing Long Lifan's actions.

"Haha, I only invited the older educated youth to dinner, and I felt bad about eating for free!"

“I’ll take some too, I also have some canned food that my family gave me!”

The others quickly took out their food, leaving Liu Pandi standing awkwardly in place. Long Lifan and the others knew why, of course; they knew what Liu Pandi had been eating on the way. Everyone's family is different, and she didn't blame her; instead, she felt a little guilty for not considering other people's families when she took the meat!

If the other women all brought out their things, but Liu Pandi didn't, what would the other older educated youths think of her? It would hurt her self-esteem to some extent!

"Let's put a few things together as a way for us new educated youth to thank the older educated youth for hosting this welcome party for us!" Long Lifan suggested. "Educated youth Liu, go next door and tell the Yang sisters!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Pandi looked at her with gratitude. The others exchanged glances and instantly understood Long Lifan's actions, and they all agreed!

They felt that Long Zhiqing, the youngest person, was indeed quite comprehensive in his thinking!

Whether it's suggesting that Hu, the educated youth, take the bus, arranging for everyone to clean, or even now, he is quite shrewd in his dealings with people and things.

Of course, Long Lifan wouldn't tell them that she was a time traveler and that she had lived for more than twenty years in her previous life.

To her, girls like them, who were seventeen or eighteen years old, would still be high school students in the 21st century! Although she wasn't a saint, she still unconsciously treated them as young girls, even though the original owner of this body was the youngest among them.
