Taking the supermarket space and becoming cannon fodder!

After returning, the four people in the backyard nodded to each other and said hello before going back to the room to rest.

After entering the room and closing the door, Wen Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

I looked at the food brought back from the village. It was corn kernels and potatoes. They are all filling stuff.

The corn kernels are ground and are about the size of rice grains. They can be cooked into porridge like rice and eaten. It is very filling. It is a very practical food for farmers who do heavy work every day. So are potatoes, filling and cheap. It can be said that the price/performance ratio is very high.

It just takes more time and firewood to cook. If you don't cook it for long enough, you'll feel a lump in your throat when you eat it, making it really hard to swallow.

While eating, I heard from an old educated youth that you can grind corn kernels into cornmeal, so that you can make some corn pancakes or steamed buns, which will be more filling than simple porridge.

Wen Xin thought that she would go to town to pick up the package when she was free tomorrow, so she said it was sent from home before leaving so that she could get things out. Anyway, no one would actually check whether a package was sent or what exactly it was.

After thinking about it, I slowly fell asleep.

A dreamless night.

When I woke up in the morning, I was still awakened by the sound of old educated youth getting up early to go to work.

Awakened by the noise outside, Wen Xin rubbed her eyes. It took her a long time to remember that she had gone to the countryside.

He rolled around in the bed, sighed, and buried his face in the pillow.

The bedding and pillows that Wen Xin took out were all space items. They were covered up with pillow covers and quilts from this era, so the bedding was still very comfortable. It's so comfortable that I don't even want to get up.

I slept for a full ten hours. Wen Xin fell asleep at around eight o'clock last night. This was something that was simply unthinkable before. In order to code words, she often stayed up all night, turning day and night upside down. I didn't expect that my schedule would become much more regular here.

Nowadays, people’s life has less fun and there are no entertainment activities. There is no electricity and they are reluctant to use kerosene lamps, so everyone generally goes to bed early.

After lying on the bed for a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Wen Xin, are you up?" Zhao Wanqing got up early today and wanted to go to town to buy something. After thinking about it, it was better to make an appointment with someone else, so he knocked on Wen Xin's door.

"Get up, wait for me for a moment." Wen Xin, who was still lying down, jumped up when she heard the voice, responded quickly, and started to get dressed.

After getting dressed and opening the door, she saw Zhao Wanqing standing at the door and asked, "What's wrong with Wanqing? Is there something wrong?"

Zhao Wanqing saw Wen Xin looking like she had just gotten up, and smiled sheepishly and said, "I plan to go to town to buy some things today. I want to ask you if you want to go?"

"Go. Just wait for me to clean up. I'll be fine soon." Wen Xin heard Zhao Wanqing's intention and readily agreed.

After entering the house, I took the toiletries and came out to wash up. Afterwards, we had some snacks and then went out with Zhao Wanqing.

"Would you like to ask Wang Yumei and Zhang Yingying if they are going?" Before going out, Wen Xin asked Zhao Wanqing.

Zhao Wanqing shook her head when she heard this, "I asked, but they don't plan to go."

Wen Xin nodded, "Okay. Can we take a bullock cart to town today?"

Zhao Wanqing said, "I don't know very well. Let's go to the village entrance and have a look. I heard from others that if there is an ox cart, it will be waiting to pull people in at the village entrance."

After saying that, the two of them walked towards the entrance of the village.

When we reached the entrance of the village, we happened to see an ox cart. Several people were already sitting on it.

They were very happy to see the bullock cart and they didn't have to walk to the town themselves. He quickly got on the bullock cart, gave the money to the uncle, and found an empty seat to sit down.

After sitting down, it didn’t take long for the bullock cart to be filled with people. When the driver saw that the seats were full, he slowly set off.

The aunts and ladies in the car who were familiar with each other started chatting about all kinds of gossip, such and such a family had a baby again, and so and so family had a quarrel and hit someone again. There seemed to be nothing they didn't know about, it was almost like an intelligence center.

Wen Xin sat quietly aside, with various voices telling different gossips in her ears. The sound was so loud that my brain was buzzing.

Before they could get used to this situation, an aunt took the lead and asked the two of them questions.

"Are the two educated youths going to town?" asked a man who didn't look very gentle.

"Yes, I went to the town post office to pick up the package. I sent it before I came here." Wen Xin didn't want to talk, so she just responded with a smile.

"What we are saying is that the educated youth have a good life. The family conditions are good. The girl is raised so well and eats good food. My grandson doesn't even eat so well." When the man heard the package, he turned it over. He rolled his eyes, curled his lips, and complained to the people around him.

"Whether this life is good or not, it is all earned by the family's ability. Madam, your grandson has no good food to eat, so you have to work hard to earn it, otherwise it will be a shame." Before Wen Xin could say anything, Zhao Wanqing replied directly.

Hearing this man's words that her family was incompetent, the aunt was a little angry, and felt that she was unreasonable by starting the problem, so she could only glare at the two of them, then looked away and continued to communicate and complain to the people around her. .

Wen Xin quietly gave a thumbs up to Zhao Wanqing beside her, thinking that she was indeed the heroine in her novel. She's a female goose, she's making fun of people for her!

Wen Xin was quite touched. After all, before, she was just a soulless character in a book that she wrote, but now, she is still a flesh-and-blood, kind-hearted, and eloquent woman by her side. My heart is warm.

When Zhao Wanqing saw Wen Xin giving her a thumbs up, she blushed slightly and smiled shyly.

After that, no one spoke to the two of them again along the way.

After arriving in the town, the driver of the oxcart specifically told the two of them, "If you want to take the oxcart when you go back, remember that you must be here before two o'clock in the afternoon. If you are late, you won't have to wait."

"Okay, remember, thank you, uncle." After knowing the time to return, the two of them continued walking.

After walking a few steps, Wen Xin said to Zhao Wanqing, "Wanqing, I have to go to the post office to pick up the package first, and you can go shopping as well. Can we meet at the state-owned hotel at noon?"

Hearing this, Zhao Wanqing nodded in agreement. After all, the time is short, so it’s better for each of us to do our own thing.

Seeing Zhao Wanqing leave, Wen Xin also walked towards the post office. After entering, I saw the staff sitting there taking a nap out of boredom.

Wen Xin stepped forward and said, "Hello, comrade, I want an envelope and stamps."

The man was dozing off when he was startled by Wen Xin's voice. After listening carefully to Wen Xin's words, she took out an envelope and asked, "Which stamps do you want?"

"Get one of each type." Wen Xin said.

The man looked at Wen Xin suspiciously, "Why do you need so much?"
