Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

We haven't even finished staring at them yet, and there's not enough time to waste."

"Isn't that right?

The only time they monitor us is when we are on the way to and from school. There is really no time for that at other times.”

"In that case, we have to be careful. You all know that they have made friends with the educated youth again. We don't know how much trouble this will cause in the future. Should we try not to conflict with them?"

"Well, we won't bother to mess with them!"

"That's right. If they want to cause trouble, they will be the first to do so. That's why we won't fall for their tricks."

"That's good. All right. It's getting late. Let's clean up and eat."

"it is good."

Not only were they themselves worried about whether the Lu family's children would cause trouble with the educated youth, but other families in the team were also worried.

But what's the point of just worrying about something like this? It can't be stopped at all.

Before the autumn harvest was over, the five educated youth, led by the children of the Lu family, criticized the people in the cowshed over and over again.

Fortunately, the comrades in the bullpen are not fools, and they still know how to deal with them.

In any case, the materials that should be submitted have been submitted, those who should work have gone to work, and the food and drink conditions are the worst in the team. In this situation, it is difficult to find fault with them even if you want to.

Despite this, those educated youth could not escape the autumn harvest. After all, they shouted "support rural construction" not only for lip service, but also required hard work.

If they did not participate and just found fault with others, they would be soon criticized. Fortunately, they still had self-awareness.

But apart from this, there was one thing that no one expected, that is, they actually had to beg others to help them cook. No one expected that several of them could not cook?

Even if we were to teach them, no one has the time during this busy farming season.

They could only fight with the fellow villagers near their residence, and nothing happened at first?

But problems began to arise over time, because not only did they have to pay for food rations, but they also had to pay for the vegetables they ate on a daily basis.

There is no problem once or twice, but over time, there will be more problems.

I heard that not only that, some comrades even demanded that every meal must have meat or eggs.

What kind of request is this? This is the countryside, not the city. Even if you are a city dweller, you can't have meat and eggs for every meal.

No family in the team could satisfy their demands.

Not to mention meat, even eggs are not a must-have on every household’s meal table during this busy farming season.

Only those who can afford to eat it will make egg drop soup every now and then to provide nourishment for their family members, especially the strong laborers.

I’m afraid there are only a few families in the team who can really fry a plate of eggs?

However, there are exceptions. For example, my family has always had eggs on their table, whether it is during the autumn harvest or at other times. This is really the only life guarantee we can provide for our family.

This is because there are few people in my family. If there are more people in my family, we cannot afford one egg per person.

After all, eggs are very nutritious. If you eat more, one egg a day can still meet the standard. If you eat more, you won't be able to do so.

The truth is, in this day and age, eating eggs every day is a luxury.

We just eat like this at home and don’t dare to talk about it outside the team.

You have to know that in that era, not only in the production team, but also in the commune and even in the big cities, people might not be able to have an egg per person every day.

This is only possible in the countryside where you can raise chickens. If you were in the city, even if you had a lot of eggs in your space, you wouldn't dare to eat them like this every day.

It’s because we raise chickens in the countryside, so even if there are regulations from above, it’s not a big problem as long as they don’t exceed the standards.

Plus, there are only a few people in my family, so eating eggs every day is not a big problem for us.

Compared with the conditions put forward by the newly arrived educated youth, no one could meet them, and everyone also sneered at their demands.

"How dare someone who can't even lift a hoe eat one egg a day?"

"After all, they are city people. How can they compare with us country people?"

"Why can't we compare?"

"That's right, we are all human beings, why are they nobler than us?

One egg a day. Even though every household in our team raises chickens, not everyone has the conditions to do so. "

"No one has this condition, even city dwellers may not have it. After all, if they want to eat eggs, they need tickets, and without tickets, they may not even be able to buy eggshells.

And the most important thing is that there is a limit to how many eggs each household can buy in a month. You can't just buy as many as you want.

You still want an egg every day? I think only people at the head of the government can meet this standard, and probably no one else can do it."

"Really? What about those above the chief level?"

“Who else could it be?

Aren’t they just big landlords and big capitalists?

Who else could it be but them?"

"That's right!

So, do you think the person who made this request could be someone like him?"

"Maybe we don't know, but I know that apart from those people, there is no one else who can eat an egg a day.

If not, then we can only buy them on the black market, otherwise how can ordinary people have so many eggs at home?"

“That makes sense, but no matter what the other party’s family background is, since they have come to the countryside, this is the condition we have in the countryside.

I don't know where you got the nerve to make such a request. You really don't know what's good for you?"

"If they are good people, they should follow our lead instead of making such unreasonable demands."

“Isn’t that unreasonable?

Although our brigade had never had educated youth come here before, our commune had Guo before, and we never heard them raise any excessive demands. Why are they making demands one after another?"

"Who knows this?"

"Yes, we are all country folk, how can we know these things?

Maybe it’s the custom there?”

"What a bullshit custom! I think they are just looking for trouble."

"No one knows whether it's okay or not?"

"How can we know? We are not the worms in their stomachs!

If he really wants an egg a day, he can exchange it for something. There are so many families in our team, and it is possible for everyone to satisfy him.

But you have to be sincere. If you are not sincere, then don't make such unreasonable demands.

If you want to eat it, find a way yourself. Why do we still have to rely on eggs to exchange for salt?

How could I bear to give him food? Even my grandson at home doesn’t have this treatment, let alone others.”

"That's right, in fact, this is not the most annoying thing!"

"From what you said, it seems like these educated youth have caused some trouble again?"
