Scumbag Handbook

Luo Mingxiu said in a low voice, the black market must exist, after all, people on the street also need something, and those who come and go have common needs, so the black market naturally exists.

It was tacitly understood by everyone, find a quiet place to trade, and meet on the street later, because you don't know me, and I don't know you.

"Well," Liu Zhiqing replied vaguely, "It's also by chance that I saw it. You mentioned before that you admire this gentleman's prose the most."

Luo Mingxiu inexplicably felt that the collection of essays in his hand was hot, and he stuttered a little, "Yes, is it?"

"Well, take your time and I'll solve the problem."

When Liu Zhiqing left together, Luo Mingxiu felt a lot more relaxed, and he still had the energy to ask: "Is it the geometry problem Mo Zhiqing said at the dinner table?"

"Yes, I'm quite interested. I asked him to write it down for me," Liu Zhiqing raised the small notebook in his hand.

"Then you explain, let me see this."

Luo Mingxiu also raised the collection of essays in his hand.

This collection of essays is relatively well preserved, and Luo Mingxiu flips through it with great care. He reads it very slowly, and this gentleman's essays need to be read slowly and carefully.

One of the two reads a book, the other solves a problem, and there is an oil lamp between them, and the years are quiet.

After breakfast the next day, Liu Zhiqing and Mo Cheng went to the back mountain.

During breakfast, Mo Cheng told everyone that they had found some books. Everyone can read books, but they have to cherish them. They are all educated youths, and they also like to read and write. Everyone immediately discussed and made a small bookshelf. , put it in the main room.

There are only Luo Mingxiu and Xiao Le in the Educated Youth Institute.

They were not idle either, they were all clean people, first went to the river to wash their clothes, and then returned to the Educated Youth Center and picked up a broom to clean the public area and the room where the two lived.

"Brother Luo, where did these jars come from?"

Not long after he finished his work, Xiao Le saw Luo Mingxiu went to the back room again, and came back with two tattered jars in his hand.

"These are broken pots, it's a pity to throw them all in the back room. I'll fill them with mud and plant some onions and garlic."

Luo Mingxiu laughed.

Every family in the village has a small plot of private land where they can grow some small vegetables, and their educated youths also have it, but there are too many people and the private plot is too small, so there is no room for green onions, ginger, and garlic to grow vegetables and fruits.

"I'll help too."

Xiao Le rolled up his sleeves and moved over.

In fact, at the position where the back door of the kitchen was open, there were also onions, ginger and garlic planted by Luo Mingxiu and the others, but there were not many of them.

When Mo Cheng and the others came back, Xiao Le and the others had already filled a dozen jars with mud and put them in a corner of the yard. Luo Mingxiu also took some things and went to the captain's house to exchange for some onions and garlic, and planted them when they brought them back.

"You guys are really busy," Liu Zhiqing sighed.

"You have also made a lot, why did you collect firewood?"

Xiao Le looked at the new firewood room where a lot of firewood had been piled up.

"I don't need many bookshelves. We went up the mountain mainly to collect firewood," an educated youth replied while washing his hands.

"Yeah, after two days of work in the field comes again, I don't have time to make firewood."

"We'll go up the mountain again in the afternoon, and it's a good thing to come back with more firewood."

Hearing this, Xiao Le pulled Mo Cheng and smiled lightly, "Brother Cheng, I will also go in the afternoon."

"it is good."

Mo Cheng squeezed his hand, then raised his hand to rub his hair.

Two educated youths went to cook, and the others helped to get out the bookshelves. First, they went to the scorekeeper to borrow saws and push hands, and when they came back, everyone started working with enthusiasm.

In just one hour, the bookshelf was made, but it had to be exposed to the sun for a while, because it was raw wood.

After dinner, everyone in the Educated Youth Institute went up the mountain and climbed for an hour and a half. When they reached the middle of the mountain, everyone started collecting and chopping firewood. This day happened to be a good time for wild vegetables to be crisp and tender.

After Xiao Le's back basket was filled by Mo Cheng, he followed Luo Mingxiu to look for wild vegetables in the woods with a small scythe.

"This is called the presser foot board. It is a delicious wild vegetable. It gets its name because the leaves are like foot boards and are often stepped on by people. This is what I heard from the villagers. It tastes very delicious."

Luo Mingxiu taught Xiao Le to dig this, and said, "The presser feet that grow in the forest are the most tender. There are also on the hillside outside and in the field, but I think the one in the forest is the most delicious."

Xiao Le secretly pinched the roots of the unwanted leaves on the ground, they were indeed very tender.

Luo Mingxiu, who saw his movements from the corner of his eye, pursed his lips and smiled.

"There is also this wild celery, which tastes much different from celery, but it can be eaten." Luo Mingxiu found a wild vegetable and told Xiao Le about its taste and growth period.

Xiao Le listened carefully and didn't say anything, and soon he and Luo Mingxiu were able to separate and look for it.

Although there are quite a lot of wild vegetables, once you put the pot on high heat, it will shrink a lot, and there are six or seven people in the educated youth center, so you can find more.

When going down the mountain in the evening, everyone is holding wild vegetables in their hands. When they meet villagers on the road, when they see the crisp and tender wild vegetables, everyone will ask where they found them. There is nothing to hide.

It's all a gift of nature.

Stir-fried wild vegetables at night, wild vegetable soup, pickles fried with lard, eaten with multigrain steamed buns, the taste is really good.

When the corn lumps grew, the team leader led people to divide the corn buds, and Luo Mingxiu still took Xiao Le, Mo Cheng, and Tang Lihua with him.

Mo Cheng took Tang Lihua to plant corn, Xiao Le and Luo Mingxiu were responsible for carrying the corn buds.

Generally speaking, planting is more tiring. Those who have been bending and lowering their waists are moving their hands, feet, and waist.

What made Tang Lihua even more frightening was that Mo Cheng would not let him go during the break.

No, as soon as he found a good place to sit down, Mo Cheng followed, "Comrade Tang Lihua, have you solved the problem that was assigned to you a few days ago?"

Tang Lihua controlled his face that was about to collapse, "....I figured it out, but I just don't know if it's right."

"That means you don't understand it thoroughly, and that's why you don't know the answer. Tell me, and I'll listen."

Mo Cheng motioned him to talk about the process of solving the problem.

Tang Lihua, who didn't even bother to solve the problem, got stuck!

Seeing his embarrassment, Mo Cheng found a branch very devilishly, and then wrote the question on the ground, asking Tang Lihua to answer it in front of him.

Tang Lihua: ..... I thank your eight generations of ancestors.

"Educated Youth Mo is also very kind."

Xiao Le and Luo Mingxiu, who were sitting and talking together, saw the behavior of the two over there, and Luo Mingxiu said with emotion.

"He is an enthusiastic person. Knowing that Comrade Tang Lihua loves learning, he can't wait to teach him all the knowledge he knows."

Xiao Le smiled, and also talked about a story I read last night, "Brother Luo, this story is very interesting, it is called a mind-reading person."

"Oh? Mind reading?"

These three words quickly made Luo Mingxiu interested.

"It's about a woman who finally got together with a man. She thought it was the beginning of a happy life, but on the second morning after marriage, she heard the man's heartfelt voice."

Xiao Le sighed, "The man married her only because of her good family background. Naturally, the previous encounters and pursuits were all because of this reason. A woman can't accept that she chose such a man, but the man has not yet married her. The family exposed her face in front of her, so the woman advised herself to be patient."

Luo Mingxiu's heartbeat accelerated and he was very nervous, "Does that man know that she can read minds?"

"Men don't know, only women know, and she also understands that even if she tells others, they won't believe that she has such a powerful ability."

Luo Mingxiu nodded again and again, "That's the truth, this is an unbelievable thing, and then?"

"Then the woman's patience and meticulous traps exposed the man's face step by step, and her family members also supported her in divorcing the man, but the man couldn't figure out exactly when the woman discovered his thoughts , and laid a trap."

"At the end of the story, the woman took her luggage and went to live in another city, and her mind reading ability disappeared."

Xiao Le looked at Luo Mingxiu, "Brother Luo, in fact, mind reading skills are not necessary in this story."

"That's right," Luo Mingxiu nodded in agreement again, and analyzed, "A man approaches her with a purpose. Even if he doesn't have mind-reading skills, in the future life, women will find something is wrong sooner or later, and their relationship between husband and wife will also be affected." will break."

"Perhaps a woman with mind-reading skills won this war without gunpowder smoke, but without mind-reading skills, maybe she will lose in the first half, but as long as she doesn't give up, she will turn around one day, so whoever loses will lose." It’s really hard to say if you win.”

Bad guys will always be punished.

Luo Mingxiu insisted on this point.

"We are all ordinary people, but we don't have the ability of the heroine in the story, so whether we are making friends or talking to someone," Xiao Le blinked at Luo Mingxiu, "we have to keep our eyes open, and we can't just keep our eyes open because of the other party's favor or It was a sudden help, and I felt that the other party was a good person.”

Luo Mingxiu nodded his head like a rattle, "That makes sense, I've learned it."

Xiao Le was almost amused by his words.

"It's good to learn it. This story is quite educational."

In the evening, while copying the prose, Luo Mingxiu told Liu Zhiqing about this story, and also expressed his feelings about what he had learned.

Liu Zhiqing thought it was right when he first heard it, but after listening to it later, he felt something was wrong.

He didn't solve the problem anymore, and came to Luo Mingxiu and raised his hand and swore, "Luo Zhiqing, I'm a good person, I swear!"

Luo Mingxiu blushed, "That's not what I meant."

"I know," Liu Zhiqing also explained dryly, "I just want you to know that I'm not a bad man."

Luo Mingxiu lowered his head, held his pencil and stammered back, "I've lived with Liu Zhiqing and Liu Zhiqing for two years, of course I know you're a good person."

"Yes, is it?"

The two people who didn't dare to look at each other, but their faces were flushed, just turned off the lights in such a daze, and each lay down to sleep.

Only Luo Mingxiu knew that he didn't sleep well.

Of course, Liu Zhiqing is similar.

So when washing his face the next day, Xiao Le squinted his eyes and looked at the dark circles under Luo Mingxiu's eyes, "Brother Luo, did you steal a cow tonight?"

"Ahem, cough, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Luo Mingxiu glanced at Liu Zhiqing who was coming this way, and coughed heavily.
