Within seconds, the jeep arrived in front of the mule cart.

At the fork in the road ahead, I turned a corner and couldn't see it anymore.

"I didn't expect to meet my sister."

Li Tongye retracted his waving arms and said with some emotion.

It would be great if Beishan Village and the Corps were both in the same direction.

In that case, he might be able to let his sister take the jeep back.

Shen Boyuan sat in the car, glanced out the window, and said nothing.

-----

On the mule cart far behind, everyone looked at Li Xinran curiously.

No one expected that Li Xinran actually knew the guy who drove the jeep.

Zhao Meijuan couldn't help but ask,

"Xinran, is the one who just passed by your eldest brother?"

"Is he a soldier in the army?"

When the others heard Zhao Meijuan's words, they also pricked up their ears silently, waiting to hear the answer.

As soon as Li Xinran came into contact with other people's eyes, there was something she didn't understand.

So, she explained,

"My eldest brother is an educated youth in the Corps, not a soldier in the army."

A trace of envy flashed in Zhao Meijuan's eyes,

"Your eldest brother is an educated youth and can ride a jeep. That's pretty cool."

Didn't you see that these educated youths can only ride in mule carts?

The people on the mule cart looked at Li Xinran with some changes.

The female educated youths also thought that Li Xinran had spent a lot of money in the past few days after going to the countryside, buying cabinets and wearing gauze scarves.

They had never seen a female educated youth who had just gone to the countryside like her.

The mule cart swayed all the way back to Beishan Village.

When Li Xinran walked to the educated youth spot, she met Captain Zhao who was walking this way.

"Hello, Captain Zhao."

Li Xinran smiled and said hello.

When Captain Zhao saw the person in front of him, he thought of what he wanted to say and stopped talking.

"Li Zhiqing, let me come over and talk to you about building a house."

Li Xinran immediately stopped and waited for Captain Zhao's next words.

This is the place where she will live for the next two years, so she must be serious.

The male and female educated youths walking with Li Xinran all looked at her in surprise.

Li Xinran is going to build a house?

In their hearts, they wanted to stop and listen to the conversation between the two, but they were embarrassed on their faces.

He could only enter the small courtyard for educated youth with eyes full of curiosity.

Captain Zhao continued,

"Li Zhiqing, do you think it would be okay to build two adobe houses for this house?"

"It's the same adobe house as the one in the current educated youth spot."

"If you want to build a brick house, it will look beautiful, but you will have to go to a brick factory to buy bricks, which will also be more expensive."

"Your money·······"

The village chief didn't say any more, but his meaning was very clear.

If you build a brick house, you will have to pay more.

"Okay, just build an adobe house."

Li Xinran agreed to build an adobe house without much thought.

There is really no need for a brick house or anything like that.

Captain Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief. It was all because he didn't ask more questions when Li Zhiqing gave him the money.

After all, there are not many brick houses in this village.

I just remembered it today and asked again.

"Then I'll find someone to burn the adobes and build a house."

"If it's a tree, go to the mountain and chop it down."

"As for tiles, there are still some in the village, which should be enough for two rooms."

"The location is right next to the Educated Youth Point. I'll build you two houses."

Captain Zhao pointed at the small courtyard for educated youth in front of him and said.

Li Xinran thought for a while and then said,

"Captain Zhao, can you surround me with a small courtyard in the open space in front of the house? I'll plant some vegetables or something."

Captain Zhao nodded in agreement without thinking.

"For a kang, a width of about 1.5 meters is enough. It doesn't need to be too big."

Li Xinran thought about what she would do if she bought a large kang measuring two, three, or four meters tall, and arranged to move in with the knowledge in the future.

"Okay, there's no problem with this. I'll do it as you say."

Captain Zhao left after discussing with Li Xinran.

Li Xinran also returned to the house carrying a basket on her back.

As soon as her feet entered the house, she attracted the attention of several people.

"Xinran, are you really going to build a house?"

Zhao Meijuan did not expect that Li Xinran was still asking herself about the house a few days ago.

Today, I heard that Captain Zhao was coming to build a house for her.

She has been in the countryside for several years and has never thought about building a house.

"Ah."

Li Xinran nodded. After all, everyone would know it when the house was built, and she didn't need to hide anything.

Sun Yanyan had a look of envy in her eyes.

Zhou Xiaonan on the side glanced at Li Xinran and then lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.

In less than a while, the male educated youths also found out that Li Xinran, who had just returned to the countryside, wanted to build his own house to live in, and they were all very surprised.

"Tianhua, do you think Li Xinran has some family background?"

Zhou Quan crossed his legs and talked to Chen Tianhua, who was sitting aside reading a book.

"But that's not right, you have already gone to the countryside."

"Her brother rides in a small jeep, and he's great?"

Chen Tianhua, who had been reading with his head down, raised his head and glanced at Zhou Quan, which was full of warning.

"If you want to build one, you should build one too."

Zhou Quan said with a playful smile,

"I don't want to cover it. I like this kind of thing. It's so warm when several people sleep on it together."

Early the next morning, Li Xinran put on her sun protection gear and prepared to continue hunting pigweed.

Now in the farmland, after weeding, we start catching insects again.

Li Xinran secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, she didn't have to catch insects.

There are no pesticides now. You can spray them and the insects will be killed.

It's all about catching them one by one with two hands.

After Li Xinran packed up, she saw that Zhao Meijuan was also wearing a yellow gauze scarf today.

The style was the same as what she had seen at the supply and marketing cooperative in town.

After Zhao Meijuan put it on, she stood in front of the mirror, looking left and right, looking appreciative.

Then, Zhou Xiaonan also took out a gauze scarf.

Familiar pink, familiar peonies.

Li Xinran couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Isn't this the gauze scarf she sold to Chen Tianhua on the black market?

This gauze scarf was sold for four yuan.

It turns out that Chen Tianhua gave it to Zhou Xiaonan.

Sure enough, the small flame of the relationship between the male and female protagonists has begun to grow stronger and stronger.

Zhou Xiaonan looked happy and put on the pink gauze scarf.

With her fair face and pink gauze scarf, she looks even more adorable when she wears it like this.

"Xiao Nan, your gauze scarf is so beautiful."

Wang Xiaoying's face was full of envy.

After finishing speaking, she took another look at the gauze scarf on Li Xinran's head, turned to Zhou Xiaonan and said,

"You still look good."

Zhou Xiaonan smiled apologetically at Li Xinran.

But in his eyes, he seemed to agree with Wang Xiaoying's words.
