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

He's father and mother looked at the cornmeal pancakes with burnt bottoms and the fried cabbage shreds that were a little black in front of them, and they couldn't even pick up the chopsticks.

They really don't want to eat these things.

Seeing that they didn't move, I kindly handed the chopsticks to them.

"You're welcome, eat." He ate quickly and left.

"Do you usually eat these?"

He's father picked up the chopsticks and picked at the plate of shredded cabbage twice, showing a look of disgust.

"If not this, what else can we eat? The only time the village can distribute meat is before the New Year, and we eat it all during the New Year."

The He family was not a particularly wealthy family. Although the couple took a car to visit He Feiyang and even booked a room in the guesthouse, they came by hard seats, and they ate the food they brought from home during the two days in the car.

Moreover, they came to Jiangjia Village without eating this morning, and they walked all the way here, so they were already starving. Not to mention that He's father was in a bad mood, and his stomach had been rumbling several times.

Although the food didn’t look very good, at least it was freshly cooked.

The couple hesitated for a while and then picked up the chopsticks because they were really hungry.

As a result, I realized something was wrong as soon as I took a bite of the food.

This dish of stir-fried cabbage looks like it has a lot of soup, but it tastes dry when eaten. There is no cabbage flavor at all, but a mushy taste. It feels like there is no salt at all.

The two of them picked up another cornmeal cake.

The biscuit choked He's father so much that he almost rolled his eyes. He couldn't even drink water smoothly because He Feiyang didn't pour any water.

After finally swallowing it, he felt like his throat was about to be cut.

He asked He Feiyang in a hoarse voice if he had any water. He saw a kettle in the room.

"It's not boiling yet."

If you feel that it makes your throat sore, then that's right. He mixed a lot of bran into it, and he still thought it was a waste of cornmeal.

He's mother did take small bites, but she always felt something was wrong with the cake as she chewed it, as if it was not only made of cornmeal, but also had some bran in it.

He's father felt something was wrong when he saw He Feiyang not moving his chopsticks, and asked suspiciously, "Why don't you eat?"

I hope this child is doing something bad on purpose.

"In the winter, we don't work. We only eat two meals a day to save food."

He was talking about the villagers, not them. They still had three meals a day, and if the Song siblings were greedy, they could have an extra meal.

He's father frowned. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that he did it on purpose.

"He Feiyang, we are your parents after all, it's ok if you don't prepare some good treats for us, but you just give us this to eat..."

Father He took another bite of the cornmeal pancake, but couldn't eat it anymore, so he threw it on the table.

I don’t know if it was because he had too much strength in his hands or what, but the half pancake bounced on the table and fell to the ground.

"If the villagers saw your behavior, they would be furious with you..."

After saying this, He Feiyang bent down, picked up the cake, and blew away the dust on it.

He's father's face froze for a moment. He didn't mean to waste food on purpose, he just thought the cake was too bad and wanted to teach He Feiyang a lesson, to let him know how bad his life was in this village and make him go back with him.

He's mother was also there to help speak for He's father.

"Your father didn't mean it, I just can't swallow the pancake you made.

But you too, you can't cook, why are you trying to show off? You asked me to help you just now. Look at all the food, isn't it wasted? You can't blame your dad, right?"

He's mother started to lecture him, and in the end she put all the blame on He Feiyang.

He Feiyang did not refute and just listened to the two of them taking turns preaching.

After the two stopped talking, He Feiyang took the dishes out.

"He Feiyang, where are you going?"

The couple was still holding chopsticks in their hands, but the things on the table were taken away. It looked very funny.

"You guys can't eat anymore, let me clean up. You can go back to the county town and eat at the state-owned restaurant. The food there is good."

Veins popped out on He's father's forehead and he was on the verge of exploding.

He's mother kept pulling his arm, telling him not to lose his temper.

In the end, He's mother bowed her head and asked He Feiyang to bring the dishes back. The two of them ate while holding back their anger.

Seeing the two people put down their chopsticks, He Feiyang was considerate enough to pour a bowl of boiling water for each of them.

"Drink water Shun Shun."

He Feiyang now understood how Song Shuangshuang usually annoyed people. Anyway, she was kind-hearted, and it was her business if she didn't want to accept it.

"You have finished talking and eating. Do you have anything else to do?

Don't even mention asking me to go back. How can you ask me to go back? Give the village chief or the captain a gift to get me a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University? Or give me a job and ask me to go back to replace someone? None of these are possible.

So don’t say any more, there’s no way I’m going back.”

With every word He Feiyang said, the expressions of He's father and mother became darker.

They did intend to let He Feiyang think of a way to go back through the school quota provided by the village, and they could help if appropriate.

Any more can’t be done.

Their family is just a doctor, not a rich and powerful family like the one in the capital, so they can only do this. Otherwise, why would they walk here so early in the morning? They would have found a way to take a bus to this poor village.

Seeing He Feiyang's firm attitude, the couple also became angry.

Their trip was in vain. They were troubled for several days and were very angry.

He's father wanted to go back to Beijing immediately. If it weren't for those people in the family quarters gossiping about him every day, saying that the couple favored the eldest son and ignored the younger son, he wouldn't have made such a trip just for the sake of face.

"Okay, you can come back if you want. If you have the ability, don't go home for the rest of your life. There is no land for you at home!"

"Don't worry, I'm fine staying in the village, and I won't go back."

Father He was breathing heavily, he felt like he just got to know his son.

"Okay, okay, He Feiyang, don't regret it!"

He's father glared at He Feiyang fiercely, then pulled He's mother away.

He Feiyang didn't even try to stop him. Just let him go if he wanted to.

He's mother had been persuading He's father, but she didn't persuade him not to be angry with He Feiyang. Instead, she told him that they couldn't just go back like that. It wouldn't make any sense for them to just stay here for one day and then go back. When they go back, not only will the neighbors talk about them, but the eldest brother will also be angry.

Besides, it would take them a long time to walk back to the city. There should be ox carts or donkey carts in the village that could take them back.

Speaking of his eldest son, He's father slowed down.

He Feiyang, who was standing at the door, heard the entire conversation between the two.

As expected, they must be here because of the eldest brother, otherwise why would they suddenly appear?

Thinking about his elder brother's character, well, he seemed to have guessed something.

Tsk, he must have been hanging out with Song Youlin and the others for a long time, why did he start gossiping?

"There should be a donkey cart or ox cart in the village. You can ask the driver to take us there." He's father said as a matter of course.

"Grandpa Wu only drives into the city in the morning, so you should walk back."
