Chapter 49 I have finished my work and I am going to help Jing Chen.
The newspapers at home were almost used up, so Shen Shuyu took three stacks.
After taking the things, she went to the old man at the scrap yard to count the money. The old man glanced at the broken stool and table in her hands and said, "Give me 10 cents for the stool and table, and 30 cents for three stacks of newspapers."
Shen Shuyu gave 40 cents and left the scrap yard.
In a place where no one is around, throw the things in your hand into the space and go straight to the next place - the black market.
The cowshed was short of everything, but Shen Shuyu couldn't buy everything. She only bought some necessities.
The black market may not have everything, but most of the things you want can be bought there, just at one or two times the price.
She bought a pot with several holes on the edge. Shen Shuyu took a careful look and found that the pot was not leaking and could be used. This was what she was looking for.
After a round of walking, I bought plates, bowls, kettles, and bedding. These things looked old, but they were all usable.
The little bit of miscellaneous grains that the second grandfather gave them was not enough, so Shen Shuyu also bought 50 kilograms of corn flour, 50 kilograms of white flour, 50 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and 50 kilograms of potatoes.
Shen Shuyu did not plan to give these foods to them all at once. He just bought them and put them in a space so that he could take them out whenever he wanted.
After buying everything she needed, Shen Shuyu left the black market and went to a state-owned restaurant to buy fifteen meat buns.
Gu Jiandong specifically requested the meat buns, and Shen Shuyu did not forget.
Shenjiaba Brigade.
Under the scorching sun, the team members were all working hard, only Zhou Jingchen looked at his hands after pulling out two weeds.
The aunts and uncles around him were disgusted when they saw him.
"This educated youth's hands are different from ours. Look how precious they are. I don't think the grass here is even worthy of him pulling."
When this was said, everyone burst into laughter.
Being laughed at by a group of peasants, Zhou Jingchen's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
How dare a bunch of ignorant peasants laugh at him?
His hands are for writing, not for pulling weeds.
Zhou Jingchen had long seen how rude these peasants were. He didn't argue with them on the surface, but he cursed them in his heart. If he returned to the city, he would make those who laughed at him pay the price.
Shen Xue worked very efficiently today and finished her work early. She was thinking about Zhou Jingchen and was about to go over to help Zhou Jingchen weed when Liu Pandi stopped her.
"Xiaoxue, what are you going to do?"
"Mom, please let me go. I have finished my work. I want to go help Jingchen." Her Jingchen had never done such work before. The sun was scorching, and the aunts and grandmas in the village spoke harshly. Jingchen must have been tormented.
If she went to help him at this time, Jing Chen would definitely be very touched, and once touched, he might express his feelings to her.
"You are not allowed to go. You have finished your work, but my work is not yet finished. You have to help me.
Don’t go to Zhou Zhiqing’s place these days. Your grandma and your dad don’t like Zhou Zhiqing.”
Originally, Liu Pan was somewhat optimistic about Zhou Jingchen. He was handsome and had a good family background. If her daughter Xiaoxue married him, she would definitely be able to live a luxurious life.
But seeing his performance in working in the fields these days, Liu Pandi felt that she seemed to have chosen the wrong person. This guy couldn't even pull out weeds, so how could he bring happiness to her Xiaoxue in the future?
"Mom, are you still my mother? Why are you like this too?
Zhou Zhiqing was seriously injured before and hasn't fully recovered yet. How can he do such heavy work? "
Is this still her obedient and sensible daughter? She started to contradict her just for a man.
"Is he doing heavy work? He's just pulling weeds. Even a three-year-old can do this. How can't a grown man do it?
If he needs your help even to pull weeds, if you really want to marry him in the future, won’t you be treated like a slave?"
"I don't care. I'm going to go and help him with the work." Shen Xue broke free from her mother's hand and strode onto the ridge of the field.
The girl ran so fast that Liu Pan couldn't stop her. He had no idea what to do except to get angry.
After working for half a day, Shen Xue was afraid that her hair was too messy and would not look good, so she walked in front of Zhou Jingchen and tidied her hair.
"Jingchen, is your hand injured? Take a break, I'll help you."
Zhou Jingchen touched the frame of his glasses and smiled tenderly, "Xiaoxue, you are always so kind. You have helped me so many times. I don't know how to repay you."
After saying that, he sat down at the edge of the field, leaving his seat to Shen Xue.
Not sure if it was because of the heat or shyness, Shen Xue blushed, "Jingchen, we are so familiar with each other, don't say such polite words, what about repaying or not repaying, you know, I am willing to help you."
Zhou Jingchen patiently talked to her for a while, then fell asleep while sitting on the edge of the field.
Shen Xue felt even more distressed when she saw this scene. Her Jing Chen had said that he couldn't sleep well at the educated youth camp. The two educated youth who shared the room with him snored every day, which was very annoying.
If Jing Chen didn't sleep at the educated youth camp, he would probably be able to sleep better.
By the way, if you don't sleep at the educated youth camp, Jing Chen can move to her house and sleep.
They are all educated youth. That idiot can live in her house, so why can't Jing Chen?
"Jingchen, wake up, I have good news for you."
Zhou Jingchen was pushed awake by Shen Xue. "What are you doing?" He was still not fully awake and had no time to pretend. He spoke with anger. Shen Xue felt a little aggrieved. "Jingchen, why are you talking so harshly?"
"I'm sorry, Xiaoxue, my voice was a little loud, I hope you didn't scare me!
Did you just say there was some good news?"
He spoke so gently to comfort her, Shen Xue's heart was beating fast, "Jing Chen, didn't you say that you couldn't sleep well in the educated youth camp? I thought of a good place,
You can move out and live in my house. Then you can live with the silly... Gu Jiandong. His house has everything. You don't need to take anything.
Live in my house, come home from work every day and you'll have food to eat. If you don't want to wash your clothes, I can do it for you."
After hearing this, Zhou Jingchen was moved. Yes, why didn't he think of moving out and living with the villagers?
Every week at the youth training center, it was his turn to cook, fetch water, and water the vegetable garden. He didn't want to do all this work.
He thought Shen Xue's suggestion was good, but he was still a little rational. "Moving to your house? That's not a good idea. Do your family members agree? Your second aunt seems to have some opinions about me!"
Zhou Jingchen never forgot that Li Caixia asked him to pay back the money the first time he visited her.
"I'll go back and tell my grandfather later. He admires you educated youth who went to the countryside, and he will agree." Shen Xue was very confident. Her grandfather loved her very much. She didn't believe that her grandfather would disagree. As long as her grandfather agreed, she would not be afraid that the old woman would disagree.
"Then thank you for your help, Xiaoxue. I will go back tonight to clean up and prepare some gifts for your family. By the way, do you have any empty rooms at home? I don't like sleeping in the same room with others."
