The 1970s Educated Youth

Chapter 25

◎You are an educated youth from Beijing◎

Both feet were injured. Gu Wanning could not go to work, so he simply took another long leave.

After work this afternoon, Zhao Hongying and Chai Ruiyun came to see Gu Guanning.

Zhao Hongying said: "Yesterday, after I checked the farm tools, I passed by Mrs. Lin's house and took a look. The yard was not big or small, just right. Coincidentally, the yard was just two houses away from Mrs. Feng's house."

Chai Ruiyun asked: "How much is the rent?"

Zhao Hongying stretched out her hand and said, "Three pounds of flour a month."

Chai Ruiyun's eyes lit up, "So cheap? Is it reliable?" Xu Wenli: "?!" There was a look in the eyes behind the lenses. It was a surprise that could not be concealed.

Xu Wenli opened his mouth. He couldn't believe that Gu Guanning admitted it like this. This would cause public outrage. The educated youth who were watching were also shocked. They were more shocked than angry.

Moreover, this shock was mixed with a trace of expectation, wanting to hear what else Gu Guan Ning could say.

The smile on Gu Guanning's lips slowly widened, she raised her chin with a determined expression, "I don't believe you don't think this distribution method is fair?"

"Sister Ruiyun is right, why are people like Zheng Miaoqin so lazy and lazy? Eat the same amount of food as those who work hard?"

"Why? Because of her big face?"

"Do you think such an outrageous distribution method is reasonable? You are willing to distribute your food to Zheng Miaoqin selflessly. He raised her to be white and fat, and to have the strength to be lazy? What's this called a white wolf with empty gloves!"

Gu Guanning said with a look of hatred. "Stupid!"

"Selfless dedication is not how it works. If you have that free meal, instead of giving it to people like Zheng Miaoqin who have made no contribution to the construction of the motherland and rural development, it is better to eat it for yourself so that you can have strength when you work. Two more hoes will add up to a bright future for rural construction!"

"You are so stupid!" Gu Guanning lowered his head and wiped away tears, "At home, you are the pet peeve of your parents, but when you are outside, you are being abused. People who are regarded as revolutionary comrades are betrayed and bullied."

"My brothers and sisters, don't you feel so sorry for yourself?" Gu Guanning's words were so thought-provoking that they touched everyone's heart. All the educated youth fell into sluggishness.

Gu Guanning nodded, "It must be reliable. This is Aunt Feng She won't lie to us about the price."

"Yes." Zhao Hongying looked at Gu Guanning and smiled, "Ms. Feng is a nice person. She has a good relationship with Aunt Lin. She negotiated the price for us first. We have to pay the rent to move, and she wants us to replace the white noodles with stick noodles."

Chai Ruiyun looked at the two of them, "When will we move?"

After hearing this, Zhao Hongying paused and said, "We want to move. I haven't told other people in the courtyard about going out yet, and I don't know how to divide the food after moving out."

"What's the point?" Chai Ruiyun stared, "The accounting and cooking people must have remembered it. Wouldn't it be clear if we spread out the account books? If it doesn't work, we have to move out even if we suffer a little loss."

Gu Guanning also meant the same thing. She was more decisive and made arrangements directly, "We will discuss the matter at noon today. Let's reconcile the work and divide the food between Sister Hongying and Sister Ruiyun. Pay the rent to Mrs. Lin tomorrow, and we'll ask for leave the day after tomorrow to move things."
