Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

Song Shuangshuang kept making jokes for a while, and with the help of Tan Anjing, she managed to calm Aunt Chang down.

"Don't think I'm nagging. I really treat you as my own children, so I'm talking so much. The world is so chaotic now, and you keep running to the city to do this. I'm worried."

Song Shuangshuang took a deep breath and became serious.

"We know you're worried, Aunt Chang. We don't go to the city every day, just occasionally. We won't have time to go when we start working in the spring, so we don't want to make some money in the winter. We bought a bicycle to make it more convenient to go to the county town. Otherwise, we'd be afraid of running into Grandpa Wu every morning and would have to take the small road.

Don't worry, we know what we are doing."

"Okay, just be sensible. I'll cover for you in the village." Aunt Chang patted the two men's hands.

Outside the house, Song Youlin and He Feiyang also heard everything that happened in the house. They knew that Aunt Chang was really worried that something might happen to them, and they felt indescribably touched.

Especially He Feiyang, since he went to the countryside, except for Song Youlin and a few elders in the mountains, no one has cared about him so much. Even his family members don't care about him so much, otherwise why didn't they come to see him after he went to the countryside for two years.

The Youth League Office must have kept records of where he went to in the countryside, but there was no record of the village he was assigned to. If you want to find him, you can go to the local commune and find out which village he was assigned to.

Isn’t it because the family has an eldest son who works for the government and is the pride of the family?

That's why they didn't take his going to the countryside seriously.

But it doesn't matter, it's enough for him to have friends and teachers here.

Seeing that Song Youlin was almost done with cooking, He Feiyang perked up and went over to knock on the door.

"The meal will be ready soon. Auntie, please stay here and eat with us."

When Aunt Chang heard that she was asked to stay for dinner, she stood up suddenly as if she was sitting on a nail and said, "I have eaten, you guys can eat. There is a lot of work to do at home."

After saying this, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Song Shuangshuang.

"Auntie, don't leave in a hurry. I have something to ask you." She still remembered the bet they made.

Song Shuangshuang went straight to the point and asked Aunt Chang directly if she knew the new educated youth Li in the educated youth courtyard, saying that they had seen Li educated youth on their way back yesterday afternoon.

"Aunt Chang, I heard that Li Zhiqing has a bad temper. Was he kicked off the bus by Grandpa Wu?"

"Well, I know about this. The people who went into the city with him yesterday told me that Li Zhiqing was always complaining about the slowness of the car or the bumpiness of the car. Old Wu's face turned black when he heard it, but he didn't say anything. No one told him when the donkey cart would return. He probably missed the car and walked back by himself.

Hey, why are you asking this?"

Song Shuangshuang coughed lightly and told him what happened in the state-owned restaurant yesterday, and explained that Li Gang knew He Feiyang. He was afraid that Li Gang would bear a grudge against them if he saw them riding back without him, so he wanted to find out first.

"What do you care about him? He's mentally ill."

Song Shuangshuang was curious about why Aunt Chang said that. So Aunt Chang didn't rush home and told them everything she knew.

He even mentioned that Li Gang gave Bai Lingling money to cook.

Aunt Chang was still not satisfied after she finished speaking. "If you want to know more, I'll ask for you. Your Aunt Liu Feng's house has been very lively recently. People go there to chat, and they all talk about things in the Youth Home. This winter is much more interesting than before."

After a few more words, Aunt Chang left. No one knew whether she went home to work or to listen to gossip.

The four of them looked at Aunt Chang who left in a hurry, and couldn't help but sigh. If they wanted to know some gossip, they really had to find Aunt Chang. She was really the first person on the front line to eat gossip!

"It seems that the responsibility of cooking in the next few days will fall on you two. My brother and I will just take a rest!" Song Shuangshuang said proudly.

She said that she missed the bus. If Li Gang really made Grandpa Wu angry, he could have been chased away on the way to the county town. How could he have waited until the return date?

Besides, given Li Gang’s stubborn temper, he probably wouldn’t take the bus, so he could only walk back!

She deliberately didn't say it yesterday so as not to cook.

Haha! She is so witty.

He Feiyang suppressed the smile in his eyes and told Tan Anjing that he would have to trouble her in the next few days.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's not a big deal to cook two meals a day, and you can help wash the vegetables and stuff, so I'm not tired."

"Okay, then I'll follow your instructions."

He didn't show it on his face, but in fact he was very happy inside, and he finally got closer to her.

Song Youlin lowered his head to eat, smiling but saying nothing. He was of course happy to be able to help his brother, and it also saved him the trouble of cooking.

Li Gang sneezed a lot in the dormitory that day, and everyone else wanted to stay away from him for fear of being infected by him. If you get sick, there is no medicine to take, you have to bear it on your own.

Li Qinglai, who was sleeping next to Li Gang, silently ran towards Liu Zhang.

Li Gang didn't pay attention to these things. He was just cursing in his heart. He thought that he sneezed because he was cold yesterday. He kept cursing Old Wu for deliberately not telling him the time to return to the village, and for not agreeing to share the table with He Feiyang yesterday, and for not giving him a ride when he saw him later, so that he had to walk back by himself.

He cursed anyone he didn't like.

For a time, Li Gang topped the list of "the most hated person by the educated youth", and Feng Aiguo was ranked right behind him.

After all, Feng Aiguo has become taciturn ever since he was given the red armband, and he usually doesn't say a word.

He Feiyang took the opportunity of cooking with Tan Anjing and asked her to teach him how to cook.

Tan Anjing watched He Feiyang approach her and asked curiously, "You have been cooking with Song Youlin for such a long time. Didn't he teach you? His cooking is also very delicious. He is better than me."

"No, Youlin thinks I'm stupid and doesn't want to teach me. You're a girl, so you must be more patient than him. That's why I'm bothering you to teach me. Can you be quiet?"

Tan Anjing was skeptical, but still nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll teach you then."

Hearing Tan Anjing's agreement, He Feiyang took advantage of her turning around and smiled victoriously.

Song Youlin was in the room listening to the entire conversation between the two people outside, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

After dinner in the evening, he dragged He Feiyang out.

"He Feiyang, you are so shameless. I help you create opportunities, and you are teasing me behind my back?" At least you can say it when he is not around. He is staying in the room!

"Then...are you wronged?" He Feiyang considered his words carefully.

Isn't this just to create an opportunity for them to get along?

Seeing how shameless he was, Song Youlin was so angry that he punched him.

"Please carry me next time, thank you."

As for the following few days, He Feiyang studied very seriously, but the dishes he cooked were still... unbearable to look at.

"He Feiyang, you'd better not learn it. It's not Song Youlin's fault for not teaching you. You're just too... You should find a wife who doesn't mind that you can't cook."

Tan Anjing couldn't think of any suitable words to describe He Feiyang.

He Feiyang stood there like a child who had done something wrong. After listening to her words, he subconsciously replied, "Do you dislike me?"
