Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

Several people turned around and saw He Zhile walking in with something. Although they couldn't see what it was, it was probably a gift for Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi.

"I'm still looking for you everywhere! I didn't expect you three to hide here and be lazy."

He Zhile didn't really think they were being lazy, it was just a joke.

Yu Jiang didn't want more people to know that she gave Zhang Tong and his friends bicycle tickets, so he followed He Zhile's words and invited them, "Yeah? Why don't you come and have a rest too."

She wasn't afraid that He Zhile would be unhappy or anything. Yu Jiang knew that He Zhile would not have such thoughts, but this matter was related to her work at the institute, and the fewer people knew about it, the better.

"Farewell, there's still a lot of work piled up behind you! I'm just here to give you a gift."

He Zhile said and handed the things in his hands to Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi respectively.

After the two accepted Yu Jiang's gift, it was natural that they could not refuse He Zhile, so they opened the gift directly in front of everyone.

Two boxes, each containing a military kettle.

He Zhile originally wanted to buy a pair of shoes for each of them. After all, winter was coming soon, but their winter clothes were not ready yet.

But this idea was killed by He Zhile. What does it mean for a girl to give shoes to two single men? Even if one of them is the same age as her brother, if others find out, it will eventually affect He Zhile's reputation.

In the end, He's mother went to the county town with He Zhile and bought a kettle for each of them.

This gift was also unanimously recognized by Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi.

After that, several people dispersed to various places and continued to work.

When it was almost noon, Grandma Yu and several educated youths from the Educated Youth Institute also came over to help one after another, and finally cooked the meal before a few people collapsed from exhaustion.

Yu Jiang and He Zhile didn't need to socialize, so they hid in the corner and feasted. Even to the bitter end, Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi had to go through the motions one by one to thank everyone for helping them build their houses.

Fortunately, several people saw that Lu Nanchi and Zhang Tong were not very old, so they did not persuade them to drink. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with the aftermath if they got drunk later.

But even though it was hard work, they also got a lot closer to the people today.

Moreover, the people invited today all know etiquette. Whether they are educated youths or villagers, everyone brought a few cents of gift money when they came to dinner, and the aunties who did not bring any money also brought a few eggs. Not to mention that some even brought their own food.

Food is in short supply these days, and it’s not easy for anyone. If someone else invites you to a dinner party, those who know the etiquette will usually give a two-cent red envelope or bring their own share of the food.

Although Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi were not short of food, they still benefited from everyone's goodwill.

As for those people who didn't get along well with them, such as Li Xiaoya and Jiang Miao.

No matter it was Zhao Yuejin and Lin Xiao's wedding before, or Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi's housewarming party today, they were not invited.

That they are not united?

joke! It is not a secret that Li Xiaoya is at odds with the entire Educated Youth Academy. Why invite her to make yourself angry on your big day?

As for Jiang Miao, it was entirely because she didn't want to come.

Jiang Miao didn't know where his sense of superiority came from. He looked down on the villagers and other educated youths from the first day.

And she didn't want to live in the Educated Youth Home. After she moved to Sun's house, she never went back to the Home for Educated Youth once.

Over time, no one regarded her as a member of the educated youth.

When other people in the Educated Youth Academy heard that Grandma Yu was the chef today, regardless of whether they were familiar with Zhang Tong or others, they all actively came to congratulate them.

They had been extremely envious of Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi for being assigned to work with Yu Jiang during the previous autumn harvest. They had been craving for Grandma Yu's meal for a long time.

And since they had it once at Zhao Yuejin's wedding banquet last time, they have been obsessed with this taste.

Now they finally took advantage of Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi's move to eat the food cooked by Grandma Yu again. But they hadn't eaten since morning and were just waiting for such a meal!

So at the dinner table, there was a scene where the educated youth were in a state of chaos.

The secretary looked at the group of children and sighed to Father Yu: "Look at how these children have been tortured by going to the countryside to do farm work! It seems that they don't have enough to eat, no wonder they look so thin.

Should we study and improve their living conditions?

Otherwise, it always feels like our brigade is bullying the educated youth. "

Father Yu already knew from Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi that these educated youths couldn't have enough to eat!

Isn’t it that the food cooked by his old mother is so delicious, that’s why he eats so shamelessly?

However, Father Yu did not refute the secretary's words. No matter what he misunderstood, helping the educated youth improve their quality of life was what he had always wanted to do.

"Well, let's hold a meeting to discuss it later. Our village will not do that kind of thing of bullying educated youth."

The group of educated youths working at the next table had no idea that just because they were greedy for such a mouthful of food, their living standards would improve a lot.

There are differences between men and women. Although Yu Jiang did not visit Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi's rooms today, he visited other places.

When I walked to the vegetable garden, I looked at the soil that had been turned. It seemed that they had already planted vegetables.

Worried that the two young men from the city would not be able to take care of these dishes, Yu Jiang directly put his hands on the ground. Unseen by others, the plant-type supernatural power has entered every seed along the soil.

The superpower Yu Jiang used this time was not the previous superpower that could make plants mature instantly, but quietly added a little vitality to each seed.

Even if it’s just a little bit, it will ensure that these plants can survive the winter smoothly.

This is not the first time that Yu Jiang has used these powers. All the seeds of the Yu family have been improved by her.

Now with Yu Jiang's secret help, those two boys should be starving to death in winter.

When Yu Jiang returned, the entire banquet had come to an end. Yu's father and several cadres had returned to the brigade, but the educated youth and several aunts stayed behind to help Zhang Tong and Lu Nanchi deal with the pots and pans.

It wasn't until around three or four in the afternoon that everyone returned to their homes with the packed vegetables.

Zhang Tong, Lu Nanchi and He Zhile were slumped on the chairs in the main room, all exhausted and sluggish.

But fortunately, the housewarming party finally ended without any problems.
