During the meal, the female educated youth asked Song Shuangshuang how her foot suddenly got better. Song Shuangshuang paused while chewing the steamed bread, wondering how she could have forgotten about it. She laughed and said, "Maybe it wasn't serious in the first place. I came back this afternoon and applied some ointment I brought from home, and it's much better now."

Tan Anjing thought of the ointment Song Shuangshuang had given her before, and her hand didn't hurt that much the next day. She agreed and said, "Shuangshuang's ointment is really useful."

Several people had also seen the ointment that Song Shuangshuang used on Tan Anjing, but they didn't expect it to be so effective.

After dinner, Song Shuangshuang told several female educated youth that she was going to grind cornmeal and might be back late, so they didn't need to worry and if possible, please leave some hot water for her.

Tan Anjing thought about how she had been eating Song Shuangshuang's rations these days and wanted to go with them, but after she put on her shoes, she said she couldn't go.

Song Shuangshuang looked at Tan Anjing in confusion, "Why aren't you going?"

"You two go. We don't know how long it will take for the three of us to run out of food. I can go by myself when I have time." She just thought that if she went with them, would it be like taking advantage of Song Shuangshuang.

She had always been eating other people's food rations, and if she followed the brother and sister to grind things, it would be somewhat suspected that she was asking others to work for her. She couldn't let people think that she was taking advantage of others, so she decided not to go.

Song Shuangshuang tried to persuade Tan Anjing a few more times, but when she saw that she still didn't agree to go with them, she stopped trying. She also had something to say to Song Youlin anyway.

"Sister, let's go." Song Youlin knocked on the door of the female educated youth dormitory.

"I'm coming!" Song Shuangshuang shouted towards the door, then turned around and told the female educated youth that she was leaving first, and walked out the door holding a bag of corn.

Song Youlin was standing at the door of the dormitory. When he saw Song Shuangshuang coming out, he went up to her and took the bag of food from her. Seeing that she had nothing in her hands, he reminded her, "Where's the flashlight? If we come back late, we'll have to come back in the dark."

Song Shuangshuang sighed and said something unfortunate. The kid went back into the house to get the flashlight. She secretly thought that she would make him push the millstone for a while longer to stop him from talking so disrespectfully.

When the siblings arrived at the threshing ground, many aunts were already there. Song Shuangshuang thought to herself that these aunts came really early. Have they finished their housework? Then she saw Aunt Chang and Aunt Wang walking towards her. She couldn't help but sigh that the two aunts were indeed the ones who knew the most information in the village. She was discovered as soon as she arrived.

Aunt Chang's first reaction when she saw Song Shuangshuang was to pull her aside and sit down, muttering, "You kid, why are you still here when you sprained your ankle? Your brother can grind cornmeal himself. If you can't, come to your aunt's house and let your elder brother Guan grind it."

Aunt Wang also agreed and said that she shouldn't come out.

Song Youlin, standing alone with two bags of corn kernels in his arms, felt miserable. He couldn't do it alone, it weighed 20 kilograms!

Song Shuangshuang stood up under the worried gazes of the two aunts and jumped a few times to prove that her foot was healed. Seeing that the millstone over there was empty, Song Shuangshuang told the two aunts not to worry about her, she was really fine.

After saying that, he ran away...

The two aunts were relieved to see that she was fine after seeing her nimble movements, and continued to go and "gather information" together.

Song Youlin didn't master the technique of using the grinding wheel for the first time, so Song Shuangshuang showed him how to do it at the beginning. After grinding for a while, she realized that Song Youlin was cheating her, so she changed people. During this period, the two of them took turns to push the mill, and when it was dark, the corn kernels were ground.

The two of them looked at the bag of cornmeal. How should I put it? It felt like they were not looking at cornmeal, but a bag of money.

[Ding~ Mission completed, rewarding the host with 10 points, current points are 39 points. ]

After hearing the system prompt, the brother and sister said at the same time, "If there is such a task again, I will never do it no matter what!" It's so tiring!

Song Youlin walked back with Song Shuangshuang, holding a bag of food in each hand. The two chatted all the way, and when they were about to reach the educated youth point, Song Shuangshuang used a flashlight to shine around, and only after making sure that there was no one around did she tell Song Youlin about her plan.

"I heard from the captain that it's okay for us to move out, but he alone doesn't have the final say. I thought we should unlock the supermarket first and see if we can take something out to give as a gift to the village chief. What do you think?"

"I thought so too, but I don't know how often the system tasks will be refreshed."

Song Shuangshuang recalled the update frequency of the tasks some time ago. Adding the points given out every week, if everything goes well, it will take less than a week to unlock them.

I asked Song Youlin if he planned to rent a house or build one. Song Youlin thought for a while and said

"Sister, you can ask around these few days to see if there are any vacant houses in the village to see if we can rent them. If not, we can build one. However, in the end, it all depends on the opinion of the village chief. If he doesn't agree, it will be useless for us to think about it."

Song Shuangshuang thought of the village chief's attitude towards Old Wu that day, and suddenly smiled maliciously, "It's okay, I will find a way when the time comes!"

Song Youlin didn't understand what his sister was up to, so he handed all the cornmeal in his hand to her while she wasn't paying attention.

"I'm the one who carries everything back and forth, so you should take care of me." Song Youlin took the flashlight and shone it on the ground. "Let's go, I'll help you light the way."

Song Shuangshuang: "......humph"

Although she was reluctant, she picked them up one by one, because she was a good sister after all.

The male educated youths saw Song Youlin coming back, and except for Cao Qi, they all greeted Song Youlin. Although Song Youlin was unhappy with the male educated youth's silence yesterday, he could understand it a little. Besides, the two siblings would still live in the village for several years, and it was definitely unrealistic to make enemies with all the educated youths. It would be better to observe and see who was worth making close friends with.

After responding, Song Youlin took the basin and went out to fetch water. He had been sweating all day and he couldn't sleep without washing himself.

Sitting on the edge of the kang and drying his hair, Feng Aiguo asked Song Youlin if he wanted to eat with them starting tomorrow. He could just give her the rations before Bai Lingling started cooking. After work in the evening, they would go up the mountain together to see if they could hunt pheasants or something to improve their food.

Song Youlin thought he had shown it clearly enough, so why did he ask him? He refused directly, "No, I'm going to eat with my sister and the others."

Feng Aiguo was a little embarrassed. "Ah... OK." He thought that Song Shuangshuang and her brother had dinner with the female educated youth during the day, but they didn't finish the food they bought from the state-owned restaurant and didn't want to leave Song Youlin alone to eat.

Cao Qi sneered, "He has his sister to take care of him. Does he need to eat with us when he's still breastfeeding?"

[Ding~ Mission updated]

Song Youlin didn't expect the task to be updated at this time, so he opened the task panel to view the task.

How should I put it... Well, swearing at people shouldn't be a good idea, right?

【Host, please teach Cao Qi a lesson. 】

What kind of mission is this? Song Youlin really wanted to ask his sister, has there been such a mission before? Aren't they all said to consume physical strength?

Throwing the towel in his hand into the basin, Song Shuanglin walked up to Cao Qi and said coldly, "Say what you just said again!"
