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

After working for more than half a month, the amount of firewood they collected this year is indeed a lot more than last year.

In addition to collecting firewood before winter, Song Shuangshuang and his team had an important task: they had to pickle sauerkraut. This year they also planned to follow other villagers and dry some potatoes and beans.

Song Shuangshuang didn't know about these things before. It was only when she heard someone mention them that day and asked Jiang's mother that she found out about them.

“When my family first came to Jiangjia Village, we didn’t know about these things until someone else told me about them.

These things like dried potatoes are not difficult to make, but they are quite labor-intensive. You have to boil the small potatoes, slice them, and dry them.

If you want to eat it, I'll ask your uncle Jiang to make it at home when he's free. He's free at home anyway."

Song Shuangshuang and others quickly refused.

"Don't bother Uncle Jiang. We've brought back a lot of firewood. It's okay to miss a couple of days. This is a good opportunity to learn how to make it."

Just kidding, the four of them eat a lot on a daily basis. How long will it take Uncle Jiang to prepare for them all by himself? Uncle Jiang will definitely vomit when he sees potatoes in the future.

As soon as she heard Jiang's mother say that the potatoes had to be boiled first, then sliced ​​and arranged neatly, she knew it was a tiring job.

Moreover, no matter how many covers you use, it will not be enough to cover such a large amount of potato chips. You have to lay a plastic sheet and squat on the ground to do it slowly.

Uncle Jiang has poor legs and feet to begin with, so let it go.

"Then your uncle Jiang and I will come over to help you, okay?"

"Hehe, thank you for your help~"

It is really troublesome to make dried potatoes. Song Shuangshuang lost her patience after a while. If there were these things in the space, she would definitely not do it.

Although it is a bit troublesome to make, the taste of these dried potatoes is indeed different from that of directly adding potatoes.

Song Shuangshuang thought, it's not impossible to make some of this stuff later. It's only tiring for one day, but it's convenient to store.

In addition to these, Song Shuangshuang was also busy preparing a lot of spicy cabbage that Grandpa Jiang and Mother Jiang liked.

Everyone can make everything else together, but the sauce can only be made by Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin themselves.

There is no way. Many seasonings are not available at this time. Even if the packaging can be changed, they are not available in Heilongjiang Province, let alone such a large quantity.

It's as if the two siblings are hiding something.

Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin were using a blender to crush onions to make the sauce in the space with tears in their eyes.

"I'm finally going to make it. Wait till next year. Next year I finally won't have to do this anymore." Song Shuangshuang turned around, wiped her tears with paper, and complained.

Song Youlin was in almost the same state, but he did not forget to correct Song Shuangshuang for being wrong.

"Don't think about it. We still have to do it next year, but we won't have to do so much. The college entrance examination is in December, and it will take some time to wait for the admission letter. Can you still not eat or drink during this period?"

Song Shuangshuang: "..."

"Then I won't have to make it next year." Fortunately, Tan Anjing and He Feiyang came to help spread the sauce, otherwise she would not have made it herself no matter how greedy she was.

Wouldn’t it be nice to eat the ready-made space?

Finally, after finishing all these things, they had time to go into the city.

Several people clearly felt that after the autumn harvest this year, there were a lot fewer people in the city than before, and many people on the streets were in a hurry.

The brother and sister discussed it and decided to call home next time they go to the city to tell them they will not be going back this year.

By the way, I also mailed back the things I prepared for my family, my sister-in-law, and my future nephew.

After the first snow fell, Jiang Jingcheng took an exam at the Song family.

Fortunately, Jiang Jingcheng had a solid foundation and after studying hard for a period of time, his grades were pretty good.

In this way, the business in the city does not have to be given up for the time being, but the situation this year is special and we must be more careful than usual.

Jiang Jingcheng also had an idea in mind. His original plan was to contact them once every half a month after the autumn harvest this year, but now he has decided to contact them once a month and wait until before the New Year to see the specific situation.

The Song family also received the package sent back by the siblings.

When Song's father and eldest brother came home from get off work and saw such a large package in the house, they were really surprised.

When they opened the package and saw what was inside, the couple became visibly nervous.

The couple felt something was wrong when the brother and sister sent back a bunch of cotton cloth last time. Cloth coupons were already hard to come by, and although they gave the brother and sister cloth coupons, they were definitely not enough to buy so much cotton cloth. So where did the brother and sister get them from?

And the two children also sent money back.

The couple roughly calculated that it was basically half of the money given to their siblings by their family.

Song's father guessed that the two children had spent all the hundreds of dollars that Song Shuangshuang earned from selling her work during the two years they went to the countryside. The next day, Song's father wrote a letter and sent it away, asking them not to send money back. All four of them in the family were working, so there was no need for them to worry.

However, after looking at the things sent back this time, the couple realized that the two children did not listen to what they said at all.

And very courageous!!!

Even they might not be able to get so much cotton, so where could these two kids who went to the countryside get it from?

Brother Song and Sister-in-law Song were also confused. Li Yueyue sat at the table, pulled Brother Song's hand, and asked him to persuade them.

"Well, Mom and Dad... maybe Shuangshuang and Youlin were swapped with someone else."

Father Song glared at him and said unhappily, "Do you believe what you said?"

They even exchanged with others. Heilongjiang Province is much colder than here. It is so cold in winter that it is difficult to even go out. If you wear less, your toes will be frozen off.

What fool would trade cotton with these two siblings? Have you had enough of life?

Brother Song was scolded and didn't dare to say anything.

"Mom and Dad, don't be angry yet. Why don't you write a letter to Shuangshuang and Youlin and ask them what's going on. Maybe they really exchanged something with someone close to them in the village."

Mr. Song would definitely not lose his temper with his daughter-in-law.

Song's father also asked Song's mother to put these things away first and wait until they had found out the truth.

Before Song's father could send a letter to the siblings, they called him first.

They happened to be going to the city today, and Song Shuangshuang thought that if she just wrote a letter to tell her family that she would not go back, the couple might feel uncomfortable, so she thought of calling them to let them know. She hadn't called them since she came back from the Chinese New Year.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the call was connected, Song's father's angry voice was heard, asking them why they sent things back home.

Although the words were not said explicitly, Song Shuangshuang understood that Song's father wanted to ask her what was going on with the cotton cloth and cotton.

Song Shuangshuang thought for a moment and threw the microphone to her younger brother, asking him to explain.

Song Youlin brought up the fact that Tan Anjing's father was the leader of the supply and marketing cooperative, and after a lot of deception he finally made Song's father believe that those things were exchanged with other educated youth and were not obtained from any irregular channels.
