Chapter 98: Roasted Sparrows...Delicious

In the village of Dahe, among the newly arrived group of educated youth, two individuals stood out.

On the same day, two noteworthy events occurred in Dahe Village. One was barely considered a funny incident, while the other was a genuinely beneficial affair for the villagers. As a result, the protagonists of these two events became famous.

These educated youth had not been in the village for long. Besides the times they were working, their social circles did not overlap much with the villagers. Some of the educated youth had been there for over a year, and some villagers still didn't know their names.

However, this time was different; they became known to everyone in the village.

When it came to Jia Wenxing, the villagers' evaluations were all negative—lazy, idle, bedwetting at an old age, very foolish, neglectful of crops, untidy, mentally disturbed, and so on.

Not to say that Jia Wenxing was entirely blameless, but accusing him of being untidy was a bit unfair. Among the male-educated youth, he was relatively clean. At the very least, he would use a towel to wipe his face in the morning, unlike some male-educated youth who would simply go out without washing their faces if they woke up late.

However, when Jia Wenxing appeared in the sight of all the villagers, the state of his whole body... that appearance, except for Luo Weimin, who shared the same habits, there was no one else in the village who could be considered more untidy. Jia Wenxing received a reputation of being untidy.

In contrast, the other famous person was Xu Hengzhou.

When the villagers talked about Xu Hengzhou, there wasn't a single person who spoke ill of him. Most villagers had a favorable impression of him as being smart, capable, attentive, and without airs, and, those more acquainted with him, would add that he had a good heart, was honest, and never took advantage of others.

In such interactions, the villagers' impression of Xu Hengzhou became even more favorable. When compared to Jia Wenxing, villagers could only sigh and say, "Ah, these kids from the city, why is the difference so significant?"

Moreover, when the thresher was fixed, during the attention of the crowd, Xiang Chen walked through the people and reached his brother's side. The villagers also had some impression of him. When someone mentioned he was a little genius, the villagers suddenly had a kind of enlightenment. No wonder they were brothers; both were so intelligent. Xiang Chen, benefiting from his brother's reputation, gained a bit of recognition.

After this incident, Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen were no longer outsiders in the village without anyone caring about them. When Xu Hengzhou went to work, villagers would actively chat with him, asking about city matters or requesting him to talk more about the thresher.

When Xiang Chen went to pick up firewood in the village, villagers would tell him where to find dry branches, or they would sneak in a bunch of green onions or toss a couple of garlic bulbs into his backpack.

The first time Xiang Chen poured out two large garlic bulbs from his backpack, he was puzzled for quite a while. When did he pick up two garlic bulbs?

Later, when he mentioned it to a few buddies, Hua Nier laughed and explained that it was a thank-you gift from the villagers for his brother fixing the thresher. After saying that, she openly placed a crisp and fresh Chinese cabbage into his backpack, making Xiang Chen's small backpack suddenly heavier.
