Quickly wear the boss and don’t be cannon fodder

Before, the dormitory for female educated youth could accommodate six people, but it was a little crowded.

Now there are three more people coming, and Xue Ran wants to occupy the best position as soon as he arrives. Of course Zhao Qin won't accept that.

However, Xue Ran was rich and did not argue with Zhao Qin. Instead, he used two dollars to settle the matter.

Xue Ran asked Zhao Qin to give up her place for two months, and she gave Zhao Qin two dollars every month.

It's like renting that place, and she won't be living there for long, so she will definitely have to build her own house.

Zhao Qin's temper was worthless in the face of money. She even thought it was a good deal and immediately packed up her bedding to make room.

Although the other two female educated youth were not poor, they were definitely not as wealthy as Xue Ran, and they were reluctant to spend extra money to exchange for a better position.

Moreover, they heard that Wu Xia was already married, and she would build her own house after the snow melted. Once Wu Xia and Xue Ran moved out, they would have more space.

Besides, they also had the idea of ​​moving out with Xue Ran, and then see if they could pay less money and live with Xue Ran.

They didn't have to work during the time they were here because the snow hadn't melted yet.

It gave them enough time to buy what they needed and get familiar with the surrounding environment and people.

There were new educated youths arriving, and Li Bin from the educated youth point came to ask Su Yan and the others if they wanted to hold a welcome party.

It was called a welcome party, but in fact it was just everyone taking out some food to make dinner, as a way to welcome them.

Gu Wenwen and Wei Yadong both agreed, so Su Yan naturally agreed as well.

Su Yan and Wei Yadong directly brought a pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms as a snack, while Gu Wenwen and Song Chengjun brought an extra pound of flour to make large white steamed buns.

The other old educated youth also contributed something, making this welcoming banquet look not shabby.

The newly arrived educated youth saw that there were meat, vegetables and big white steamed buns, and thought that this was indeed a place with abundant resources. Although it was a bit cold here in the countryside, at least they could have enough to eat.

Besides, here we work for half a year and rest for half a year, which is much better than other places.

However, they had no idea that the reason why this meal was so delicious was entirely due to the food contributed by the three large households next door.

The most that others contributed was some sweet potatoes and cabbage, and even the flour for making steamed buns was mostly paid for by Gu Wenwen.

The other two female educated youth, one named Huang Tong and the other named Song Moli, were both educated youth from Shanghai.

The two were both polite, but when they saw the chicken stewed with mushrooms, their eyes lit up and their hands unconsciously reached out to the dish.

As soon as Xue Ran arrived, he scooped a bowl of chicken soup and said with a look of surprise: "This chicken soup is pretty good. Was it made by Su Yan?"

Su Yan hummed lightly.

The others were not reserved either. They lined up to scoop soup. They also rushed to eat the dishes made by Su Yan, otherwise they would be gone soon.

Xue Ran said self-righteously: "I heard that you and Wei Zhiqing are cooking together. Why don't I eat with you tomorrow? I will pay the same amount of food expenses as he does."

Wei Yadong ate quietly, and couldn't help but look at Su Yan when he heard this.

Su Yan still replied calmly: "I'm sorry, I'm willing to partner up with Wei Zhiqing because he can chop wood and fetch water. One person doing odd jobs is enough. I don't have the energy to cook for three people."

Xue Ran wanted to say that she could do it, but then she changed her mind and realized that she really couldn't do it because she couldn't do such rough work.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I can give you more food allowance."

Su Yan still refused and said, "Wei Zhiqing and I are equal and help each other, not to earn food money, you should find someone else."

Xue Ran was rejected again and again, feeling embarrassed, so he turned to look at other people.

Wu Xia thought that Xue Ran was rich, and if she was willing to pay more for food, she could live with her. After all, she and Liu Hongjun would also be moving out, and they could then cook separately. With Xue Ran paying for food, it would greatly reduce the burden.

Wu Xia pretended to be friendly and said, "Why don't you live with us? The Red Army and I will also build our own house to live in, and we will probably fire our own guns."

Seeing Wu Xia being so proactive and thinking that he himself didn't want to cook, Xue Ran agreed.

She also asked Wei Yadong how much food expenses he had given.

Before Wei Yadong could say anything, Wu Xia rushed to say, "Wei Zhiqing always gives twenty yuan."

"Twenty yuan is so much?" Even Xue Ran couldn't help but sigh. Twenty yuan is already a month's salary for others in some places.

Don’t you think it’s too heartless for Su Yan to charge 20 yuan for food expenses?

Especially since Su Yan had rejected her before, she immediately found a reason to fight back and taunted him, "Are you a state banquet chef or do you eat some delicacies from land and sea? How dare you ask for so much for food?"

Su Yan didn't explain, but smiled deliberately and said, "There's no sea here, so of course we eat mountain delicacies."

Xue Ran: "Don't you think this is exploiting your comrades?"

Su Yan: “I don’t think so.”

Gu Wenwen and the others wanted to speak, but Xue Ran didn't give them a chance. She looked at Wei Yadong with a look of disappointment and said with a look of good for him: "Wei Zhiqing, I don't know if your family is rich, but do you know the current prices? You know that a worker may only earn more than 20 yuan a month. Your 20 yuan a month for food is totally unreasonable. Don't be fooled by her."

Wei Yadong looked at her coldly, then said, "I do."

Xue Ran: “Uh…”

Wei Yadong continued, "Besides, who told you that this is one month's food allowance? Can't it be one quarter's food allowance? I don't need Xue Zhiqing to worry about my own affairs."

Xue Ran's face flushed. It was the first time she met a man who didn't give her face.

Originally, she didn't bother with him about the previous visit to the yard because he was good-looking and had decent conditions. But who would have thought that in front of everyone at night, he would be so disrespectful to her.

This kind of man, when he knows her identity in the future, even if he wants to please her, she will not give him the slightest bit of good face.

Wu Xia came out to smooth things over again: "Oh, it's all my fault. I didn't explain it clearly. I only knew that Wei Zhiqing gave me 20 yuan each time, but I didn't really pay attention to how long it took."

Su Yan glanced at her as if he was looking at a clown.

Wu Xia laughed guiltily.

In fact, she had long been jealous of the fact that Su Yan could live with Wei Yadong, with a food allowance of 20 yuan each time. If Wei Yadong had not been so generous, would Su Yan have lived better than her?

Everyone else eats coarse food, but she is the only one who eats well with Wei Yadong. Why?

If she had that much food money, she could also cook delicious dishes.

To put it bluntly, Su Yan's craftsmanship was bought with money.

She asked herself that if she had Su Yan's conditions, she would definitely not be worse than Su Yan.
