Early in the morning, the sky was just getting light.

In the dormitory for the female educated youth, Lin Xuan was sleeping soundly with her quilt in her arms, but was woken up by Guan Ruixue, "Lin Xuan, get up, get up quickly."

"Well, let me take a nap for a while..." Lin Xuan closed her eyes and was unwilling to open them. She was just 17 or 18 years old, and even if she didn't wash her face, her skin was incredibly good, white and rosy, so tender that you could pinch it to make water, making people unable to resist.

Hmm? Was Lin Xuan's skin so good before?

Guan Ruixue was puzzled, and couldn't help poking with her hand, and yelled: "Get up quickly, Lin Xuan, you are responsible for the food of all our educated youth today."

Yang Liu and the team leader discussed yesterday and let Lin Xuan be responsible for the three meals a day of the educated youth point before the wound on her head heals, and count it as four centimeters a day.

At 5 cents per centimeter, she could earn 20 cents a day. According to Guan Ruixue, a white steamed bun costs 5 cents, so she can buy four white steamed buns a day...

After all, she is a rich person with a huge sum of 1,000 yuan. Lin Xuan really wants to say "I won't do it", but at this time, if you, a sent-down youth, sit idle for a day and do nothing, the masses will think that you are not positive in thought and will be singled out for ideological education. She can only follow the times and reluctantly agree.

Lin Xuan slapped Guan Ruixue's evil hand, sat up, stretched, yawned, and stared blankly ahead.

While she was in a daze, Guan Ruixue, Shangguan Huan and Zhang Yanan finished washing up and were fully armed and ready to go to work.

Lin Xuan then began to wash up slowly. Before leaving, Guan Ruixue handed her her watch and reminded her: "Watch the time to cook, and don't lose my watch."

"Okay, I'll remember it." Lin Xuan waved lazily at them, watched the three people leave with sympathy, sat in a daze for a while, and began to prepare to cook.

She first inspected the kitchen to see the inventory.

The seasonings in the educated youth camp were pitifully few, only oil, salt, garlic, ginger, and barely counted two cans of pickled vegetables in the house. The food included cornmeal, corn residue, buckwheat noodles, flour, and rice. The flour and rice were mixed with wheat bran that had not been removed, and the quality was poor at a glance. There were also sweet potatoes, potatoes, and old pumpkins on the ground.

I walked around the vegetable garden again to learn about the vegetables that can be used.

The vegetable garden is relatively large. The educated youth have been cultivating it for a year. The lush and fresh vegetables cover the fields tightly. Scallions, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, cowpeas, bitter melons, loofahs... are blooming so lively. Dewdrops hang on the fruits and vegetables, and honey and butterflies dance on the golden cauliflower.

After looking at the entire vegetable garden, Lin Xuan took a few cucumbers, a handful of scallions, and a basket of peppers back home with a basket.

Entering the kitchen, Lin Xuan took a basin and started to knead the dough to make steamed Wowotou. The educated youths did not have much fine grain. Guan Ruixue reminded her of the proportion of steamed Wowotou before she left: 30% cornmeal, 60% buckwheat flour, and 10% white flour. She kneaded the dough strictly according to Guan Ruixue's recipe.

Wowotou is steamed in one pot every morning, and the amount for three meals a day is included in it. Two are given to each person for one meal.

After steaming the wowotou, Lin Xuan smacked a bowl of cucumber, marinated it with garlic and salt and put it aside;
