Chapter 405 The Man on the Grassland is Mighty and Powerful 34

"If you say so, then let me ask you, Luke, we are all family, so what's wrong with me eating some of my family's food?! Am I wrong? Did I eat your meal so that others can't afford it anymore or what?!"

"Maimaiti, you must think so, right? Everyone's food rations are limited. You ate so much in one meal. Are you going to let everyone go hungry at the end of the month?!"

"I don't have any. How can I be hungry after paying for my rations? Didn't you send two bottles of wine to the tribe leader a few days ago? If we don't have any food, we can borrow some from the tribe leader to make up for it!"

Mamtim said it nonchalantly. In his eyes, life on the grassland was a hundred times better than in the border areas.

In the city, with his family's conditions and many children, it was impossible for them to eat well and have enough food.

Now, he used to feel that he was living a good life if he could eat half full every day, but today he ate until he was full and felt that this was life.

What kind of life did we live in the past?!

His perspective changed tonight, starting with that simple dinner.

In Mamtim's opinion, he was kind enough and at least left some foundation for everyone.

As for whether the educated youth wanted to eat or not, that was not his concern.

We can't do everything to please everyone. Besides, who told them to go out during meal times? They deserve to come back without food!

Kuturuk could no longer control his anger after hearing Mamtim's selfish words.

"I really misjudged you, Mamtim!" He rushed towards him with his fists raised.

This was the first time Kuturuk beat someone, but he did not regret it. He felt that if he let Mamtim go today, everyone might not be able to keep their food supply.

As the leader of the educated youth point, he cannot allow such things to continue happening!

Maimaiti was unwilling to accept being beaten, so he dodged his fists while waiting for an opportunity to fight back.

Fists rained down on the two men, making dull sounds.

No one stopped, and even Kuturuk gave Mamtim several opportunities to admit his mistake.

"Do you know you're wrong?"

"I am right!"

"You still don't admit your mistake?!"

"I said it, I was right!!"

The two of them were each obsessed with the other's point of view and refused to admit defeat.

Soon the two men fell on the grass with mud on their faces, still struggling with each other.

Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a loud thunder was heard in the distance, followed by a strong wind.

The grass on the grassland swayed rapidly in the wind, and the cries of various frightened animals began to be heard.

Soon, two flashes of lightning streaked across the sky, and a strong wind began to blow. Rain fell from the sky, soaking the clothes of both men.

"Don't fight, let's go back! It's raining heavily." As he said that, Kutuluk pulled Mamtim and prepared to get up.

Mamtim patted his hand and said unappreciatively, "I can get up by myself. I don't need you to help me."

Kuturuk ignored him and stood aside, watching him get up and walk away before leaving.

On their way back, other people at the educated youth center also heard the thunder. After dinner, they stood at the door and looked outside worriedly.

They don't have raincoats or umbrellas here, so I'm worried but it's not easy to go out and find them.

It was raining so heavily outside that they even collected the stove utensils and hay outside the educated youth site while the rain was light.

The day changed so quickly that the rain outside became heavier in just a short while.

The educated youth didn't dare go out in the rain, and they couldn't even hang their clothes out to dry when they came back.

The key point is that originally the girls were supposed to take a shower in the girls' felt tent, which hasn't been built yet, but the surrounding areas can be covered.

The two female educated youth would take turns to take a bath, and they would feel at ease about each other's safety. But it rained tonight, so it was difficult for them to take a bath.

Even when Usman wanted to go find someone with a wooden board on his head, he was stopped by Mayila.

In this kind of horrible weather, it's easy to not only not be able to find anyone when going out, but also get lost. They couldn't bear to lose a young intellectual just a few days after arriving.

The city police will come to question you one by one, and you might even be implicated and go to jail.

She didn't want such a day to come. It was already worrying enough that the two male educated youth had gone out, and she couldn't increase the possibility of danger.

Mayira looked at Usman and Guli standing on both sides and felt safe. With them, even if the two men could not come back for questioning, she would have witnesses.

Otherwise, if Usman left, the three men would not be able to come back, and only she and Guli would be interviewed. She was also afraid that some leaders would deliberately make things difficult for her.

Although it didn't happen that the female comrades were skinned and bullied, it still makes people feel uneasy.

If that was the case, she would have to keep a male educated youth as a witness in order to protect her safety.

Cheng Cheng didn't know what the people around him were thinking about.

She looked at the strange weather outside and thought that it would probably rain heavily next night. She didn't know if the rain would get into the yurt.

There is already water on the grass outside the door, and if more water goes down, it will definitely flow in.

Just as she was worrying about this, a man in a raincoat vaguely appeared in the night in the distance.

Unable to see his appearance clearly, Mayira mistakenly thought that it was Kuturuk who returned.

Said with surprise: "Luke, come here quickly! Maimaiti didn't come back with you..."

The rest of the words died down in her mouth. When the man came closer, she saw his face clearly and realized that she had recognized the wrong person.

This is not Luke, it's Huhe!

"Huhe, why are you here again?!" Chengcheng asked the man with wet face. Didn't they just meet an hour ago?

"I'm here to help you pull up the felt at the door, to prevent rainwater from flowing in when you sleep at night. Are all the male educated youths in your educated youth center here? Come and help. We also need to dig a ditch just in case!"

Because the youth cadre site was newly built and had never experienced a storm, we didn’t know if it could withstand it.

My uncle was worried that the educated youth here would be flooded when they slept at night, so he asked him to come over and help build some reinforcements.

Other families have lived in yurts for a long time and have taken precautions by regularly checking their houses, so they should not be flooded.

But as the clan leader, my uncle still worried about the herdsmen and went out to ask every household in person.

My aunt was not idle either. She had to take good care of the most important livestock during the rain.

She organized the women to check on the animals.

Everyone was busy with their own things, so the small problems at the educated youth site were left to him.

"Are all the male educated youth here?" Seeing no one answered, Huhedawa asked again.

"Just me!" said Usman.

"Where are the others? Where is the leader Kuturuk?!" In this situation, the leader would be derelict in his duty if he is not there.

Mayila said: "I don't know where he and Maimaiti went."

"Why don't you come in first, Huhe?!" Seeing that he was wearing a raincoat and his face was being poured by the rain, Chengcheng made way for him.

Huhedawa glanced at the clean floor inside, and seeing that he was soaked, he said, "Let's not go in. Since they are not here, you and I will do it first, and the female educated youth will stay inside first."
