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

People around heard the sound and hurried over.

Jiang Xuyang was seen with his arms stuck on the edge of the well, supporting his body.

"Pull me up quickly, I can't hold on any longer."

After several people pulled Jiang Xuyang up, Jiang Xuyang sat on the ground and rubbed his arm, "Luckily I reacted quickly."

"I told you not to run around!" Jiang Jingcheng slapped Jiang Xuyang on the head. "I told you to come and work, why are you running around?"

Jiang Xuyang felt a little aggrieved, "How did I know there was a broken well here... I almost fell in, and you hit me, brother."

Knowing that it was because of his bad mouth that Jiang Xuyang fell into the well, Song Shuangshuang stepped in to smooth things over, "Blame me, blame me. I forgot to mention that the well edge had collapsed, and I didn't make a mark."

Liu Juhua also came over to help speak.

Jiang Jingcheng said nothing, but pulled Jiang Xuyang up and helped him brush off the dirt on his body. Jiang Xuyang lowered his head and let his brother brush off the dirt for him, then followed Jiang Jingcheng to work.

There is strength in numbers, and the weeds in the yard were cleared before dark. Song Shuangshuang followed her aunt and piled the weeds in the corner of the backyard. Aunt Chang said that they could be used for kindling after drying, and if they were in the way, they could be thrown away.

Thinking of her fire-making skills, Song Shuangshuang decided to stay.

The men moved all the materials they had obtained into the hut and placed them there so that they would not get wet if it rained.

"Let's clean up the yard today, and then we'll repair the roof and dig a vegetable cellar tomorrow."

"I'll ask Jingcheng to fish out the dirt in the well tomorrow at noon and show you if the well can still be used. If it can, we can use the soil dug out from the vegetable cellar to make adobe bricks. It won't waste time."

Song Shuangshuang listened to the arrangements made by Carpenter Guan and Uncle Jiang Yi, and said she would ask them about them.

Then he looked at Jiang Jingcheng and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Brother Jiang."

A group of people worked until dark before returning home. Before dark, the carpenter measured the size of the door again and said that he would make the door for her in the next few days. The remaining half could be chopped up and used as firewood.

Song Shuangshuang hurriedly asked how much it would cost, and Carpenter Guan said that everything was calculated together and told her not to worry about it.

The brother and sister returned to the educated youth center in a shabby state, their clothes even dirtier than when they came back from work.

During the meal, Song Shuangshuang confessed to the educated youth that she was going to move out. She didn't know whether the female educated youth would still leave hot water for her as usual.

On the way back, Song Shuangshuang told Song Youlin to get some water and boil some water first, and asked Song Youlin to give her the clothes he had changed out of, and go to bed early, and she washed them. When they were working just now, Song Shuangshuang found that Song Youlin rested a lot more than during the day.

Song Youlin was indeed a little tired, and said with a grin, "Sister is so nice," but Song Shuangshuang rolled her eyes in return.

Song Shuangshuang took off her shoes and went to the kang to find a change of clothes under the gaze of the female educated youth.

"Shuangshuang, I left a lot of hot water in the pot for you, and I've also filled our kettles, just use it." Tan Anjing knew that Song Shuangshuang was going to clean up the new house and would definitely take a shower when she came back, so she left more hot water.

She was afraid that the male educated youth would use it up, so she would check on it from time to time and add some water.

Song Shuangshuang didn't expect that Tan Anjing would leave hot water for her. She thought that her moving out would make Tan Anjing have some ideas about her. Taking the opportunity to get clothes, she took out a bag of red dates from the space and gave a handful to Tan Anjing.

"You don't look well these days, eat something." Song Shuangshuang knew that Tan Anjing was in a special period these days and had not been eating well recently, and looked sick.

"Shuangshuang, thank you." Tan Anjing took the red dates, wiped them with her hand and ate them directly.

"I have to thank you. I still have some. If you still feel uncomfortable, come and ask me for it."

Song Shuangshuang actually wanted to find two bags of brown sugar for Tan Anjing, but brown sugar, like white sugar, was in the seasoning section. She could only take this.

Song Shuangshuang only took her own thermos out, and left Tan Anjing's hot water for her to wash up tomorrow morning.

After Song Shuangshuang left, Bai Lingling rolled her eyes at Tan Anjing with envy and greed, muttering in a low voice, "You are so outstanding that you only know how to please Song Shuangshuang, as if she can take you out to live with you, just because she gave you a few dates."

Tan Anjing was eating dates happily, completely unaware that the other female educated youth were looking at the dates in her hands with envy.

They haven't eaten jujubes for a long time. They have severe menstrual pain and no brown sugar water to drink, so they can only drink hot water.

Song Shuangshuang had no idea about this. She was washing clothes for herself and Song Youlin.

Maybe she was happy that she was finally going to move out, Song Shuangshuang slept so soundly that she didn't even have a dream and slept through the whole night.

Although they were going to move out, Song Shuangshuang still told the female educated youth that they could still take turns cooking and eating together before she moved out, and the female educated youth did not refuse.

The next day at noon, the villagers all knew that Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin were going to move out of the youth camp and live in the now-departed house of Jiang Laosan. Guan, the village carpenter, had already found someone to start repairing it.

The villagers started discussing it when they went to work. Although Jiang Laosan was gone and the house was abandoned, it was still the property of the village. Why was it given to the educated youth? They still wanted it!

It's not like no villagers have thought about this yard, but the village chief said that this house should be kept for a few more years. What if Jiang Laosan's child is still alive and comes back? Wouldn't he make a scene when he finds out that his house has become someone else's? And you all want it, so who should he give it to? Otherwise, we can demolish it and give each family a piece of land. See if that works.

After the village chief said so, the villagers calmed down. They might as well grow some vegetables in front of their homes.

Only a few people living nearby often come here to fetch water.

Not all villagers have wells, and many families still go to the river to fetch water. The reason why the Youth Farm has a well is because there were many educated youth who went to the countryside at the beginning, and the well was dug to take care of them, and the educated youth did not reveal their true nature at that time.

The second year when the house was vacant, there was a heavy snowfall in Jiangjia Village. Because no one cleared the snow, the roof collapsed.

Later, some villagers said that when they came to fetch water at night, they often saw something floating in the house. As a result, the news spread around the village that the house was haunted and that Jiang Laosan had returned as a ghost.

The villagers were afraid and never dared to come here again, so the yard became abandoned.

Later, some children from the village came in to play, and when the adults found them, they discovered that it was a broken straw mat that was hung on the beam by the wind, and it was not a ghost at all.

The villagers went to ask Jiang Changgui and Jiang Xiaowu who were helping Song Shuangshuang with her work, but they couldn't get anything out of them.

It was not until later that someone with good information came to ask Song Shuangshuang and learned that Song Shuangshuang and her brother wanted to move out of the educated youth center. The village chief and the team leader agreed, and the house was not given to her for free. Song Shuangshuang rented it and gave the money to the village.

Now the villagers had no objections, as long as they were not living there for free.

Who knows, maybe the money Song Shuangshuang gave can be distributed to everyone at the end of the year.

Even if we don't share the money, we can use it to buy some farm tools, fertilizers, piglets, etc. It will benefit everyone after all.

For a moment, the villagers inexplicably favored Song Shuangshuang and her brother even more.

At the same time, everyone was also wondering what the family conditions of Song Shuangshuang and her brother were like? How could they rent a house just like that? Could it be that something happened at the educated youth camp again?

Besides, it would cost a lot of money to renovate this house. The Song Zhiqing siblings are really willing to spend money!
