Jiang Qingyi did not plan to live with the educated youth, but the house could not be built so quickly, so she still needed to stay here for a while.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although Jiang Qingyi is unwilling to deal with others, she also knows that in this era where human relationships are important, it is very necessary to build good relationships with people around her.

When taking the rag from Chen Xiaofang, Jiang Qingyi smuggled a few fruit candies from the space and handed them over.

The smile on Chen Xiaofang's face looked more friendly, and she thought that this little girl was quite sensible.

She smiled and took Jiang Qingyi to the next room to scoop half a basin of water.

While Jiang Qingyi was cleaning the kang, Li Siyue and Zhao Meili both sat there without moving. They were simply too tired to move.

Chen Xiaofang and Fu Yunyun were on the other side of the table, reading the Little Red Book and taking notes from time to time.

Jiang Qingyi quickly tidied the kang and spread the quilt she brought on it. As for the other things, she just put them on the bed.

After doing all this, Jiang Qingyi was too lazy to move.

Chen Xiaofang and her friends went next door to eat soon after.

Jiang Qingyi and her companions did not receive any food, and Chen Xiaofang did not dare to invite them to join them.

Jiang Qingyi had a meat roll for dinner.

Li Siyue and the other person rested for a long time before they went to clean the kang. They didn't even have dinner and went straight to rest on the kang.

It quickly became dark. After Chen Xiaofang came back, she lit the kerosene lamp for a while, but it lasted less than half an hour.

After that, everyone else went to sleep.

The kang in the room was very long, more than enough for six of them to sleep on. Jiang Qingyi chose the edge, which was the farthest from the stove and the least warm in winter.

Li Siyue and Zhao Meili may have known the situation here in advance. They chose a position closer to the others, about one meter away from Jiang Qingyi.

Jiang Qingyi was actually satisfied with this situation. At least she didn't have to squeeze together with other people.

Soon, the sound of even breathing was heard beside her. Jiang Qingyi was tired after the past few days and fell asleep soon.

At seven o'clock the next morning, the sound of gongs was heard in the village.

Chen Xiaofang and a few others got up with a rustle.

Jiang Qingyi suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the surroundings and was stunned for two seconds, but she quickly realized that she was already at the educated youth point in Dafang Village.

She got up too.

Seeing this, Chen Xiaofang whispered, "Jiang Zhiqing, why are you up so early? New educated youth don't have to work on their first day."

Jiang Qingyi also lowered her voice, "I couldn't sleep, so I got up to take a look."

"It's up to you. Remember to go get your own food later. This food is loaned to you by the village. You have to pay it back next year when you earn work points.

Also, if you need anything, try to go to town and buy everything today. The autumn harvest will be here soon, and it will be inconvenient to go out then."

"I see, thank you, go ahead."

Chen Xiaofang went out in a hurry.

There are enough supplies in Jiang Qingyi's space, and the only industrial products are not suitable for this era, which makes her a little troubled.

She didn't want to live in the educated youth camp, so she had to go to the team leader to ask about living out. The best option was for her to pay for building a new room so that she could live alone.

After leaving the educated youth center, Jiang Qingyi released her spiritual sense and quickly knew the general situation of the village.

The entire village is located in a basin, surrounded by continuous mountains with lush vegetation on the mountains.

A few hundred meters away there is a fairly wide river. The unpolluted water is very clear and there are many fish and shrimps in it.

Jiang Qingyi strolled around, and when other educated youth said they were going to collect food, she followed them.

The brigade only gave each educated youth an advance of 35 kilograms of grain and 5 kilograms of flour.

Jiang Qingyi felt that this amount was okay, because the autumn harvest would be here soon and she should be able to get some then.

Jiang Qingyi carried the food back to the educated youth site, while Li Siyue and Zhao Meili asked other people for help.

At noon, Chen Xiaofang came back a little early to make lunch, and Jiang Qingyi took ten pounds of corn grits to the next room.

"Sister Xiaofang, I plan to have dinner with everyone. Where do you think we should put the food?"

"There's a cabinet over there. Just put the food in there. But remember to mark the food bags."

"Row."

Jiang Qingyi put the food in the cupboard and sat down in front of the stove. "I'll help you light the fire."

Chen Xiaofang smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."

"It's okay, just help each other."

Jiang Qingyi was not very good at using this earthen stove, but she could light the firewood by throwing a little fire power into it.

There was only one pot in the entire educated youth camp, and everyone thought it was troublesome, so they all ate together.

Li Siyue didn't think so. Her family was well off and her parents gave her a lot of money for going to the countryside this time. She thought that if she ate with everyone, she wouldn't be able to eat meat.

The main reason is that she herself is not willing to share the meat with others, as that would be a disadvantage for her.

But if she fired alone, she would appear to be out of place, so she instigated Zhao Meili, Wang Jian, Sun Qiang and Chen Cheng to fire alone.

Li Ankang and Duan Hongwen, like Jiang Qingyi, chose to eat with the old educated youth.

Of course, these were the educated youth's own choices. No one said anything as it did not interfere with their interests.

Chen Xiaofang washed a large bowl of corn grits and put them into the pot to cook porridge. Jiang Qingyi helped to light the fire, and she went to prepare the dishes.

There was also a private plot not far from the educated youth site, where some vegetables and seasonings were grown.

Chen Xiaofang prepared eggplant, cabbage, and stewed potatoes with beans.

There were seven old educated youth in total, and with the new arrival Jiang Qingyi and a few others, the food needed was enough for ten people.

Jiang Qingyi watched Chen Xiaofang busying herself and felt that it was quite troublesome.

She decided to ask the captain what the conditions were for living outside.

She couldn't stand working in the fields every day and then having to come back to cook for ten people. The thought of it made her feel a little embarrassed.

The dishes cooked by Chen Xiaofang are cooked with less oil and salt, so they don’t look very tasty.

The corn porridge is not too thick, and one bowl is only enough to fill one person to 70% full.

While Jiang Qingyi was eating, Zhao Meili started to busy herself with cooking their meal.

She just glanced at it and ignored it. After all, it was a personal choice and it didn't bother her at all.

The dishes cooked by Chen Xiaofang did not taste very good, but Jiang Qingyi did not comment.

After eating, Jiang Qingyi washed her bowl, put it away in the house and went out again.

She had already asked about the location of the captain's house when she was making the fire, so now she just had to go there directly.

If you want to ask someone to do something for you, you must give them benefits. Jiang Qingyi carried a medium-sized cloth bag on her body so that she could take things out of the space later.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly. Jiang Qingyi met almost no one when she went out.
