Chapter 783 The Ugly Girl Eating Melons 30

She secretly returned to the educated youth point, and no one noticed she had left.

The next day, Captain Lai got up to get the money and tickets, preparing to go to the state-owned restaurant for a meal. But when he opened the box, he found nothing.

He searched several places where he usually hid things, but everything was gone. All his savings over the years and the money he had extorted from others had disappeared without a trace.

Who could steal his things without him noticing? Even if he racked his brains, he couldn't imagine it was Su Yan.

He was so angry that he threw things around at home for a long time, but finally he had to accept the fact. If he knew who dared to steal from him, he would never let that person off.

Wei Yadong thought Su Yan only had about ten yuan on her, so he took the initiative to give her next month's food expenses.

"for you."

"What do you mean?"

"Next month's food expenses."

"We haven't even finished what you gave us last month. Have you forgotten about the big pot meals we've been eating for the past half month?"

After Su Yan said this, Wei Yadong felt that she was even more pitiful. Didn't that mean that the only money she had left was the food allowance he gave her?

No matter what Wei Yadong said, he would give the money to Su Yan. Finally, he left the money and said, "Here is the money. You decide what to buy."

Then he slipped away.

The educated youth at the neighboring educated youth camp also felt a little sympathy when they saw Su Yan, as if she had suddenly become a poor person.

Probably in their impression, Su Yan should be the kind of person who has no shortage of money. Who knew that they only found about ten yuan from her yesterday. Her family hasn't mailed anything to her in the past few months. I don't know how she will survive in the future.

Wu Xia, who didn't even have ten dollars on her, now felt a secret sense of pleasure in her heart when she saw Su Yan like this. She always felt that she was more confident in front of her, and she was no longer the only pitiful person.

Su Yan looked at them with a little sympathy and a hint of arrogance, and ignored them.

She walked up the mountain with a basket on her back. Since she had the image of being poor outside, she had to continue doing the medicinal materials business.

Seeing her carrying a backpack, Wu Xia guessed that she might be going to the mountains to collect herbs, so she quickly put on the backpack and prepared to follow her.

Su Yan saw her following him and did not stop her. After all, the mountain was so big and it didn't belong to her alone. Anyone could go there.

Halfway through the journey, we met Fang Cuihua. She was also carrying a basket, but it was filled with pig feed.

After the busy farming season, there are two days of holiday. Just because the educated youth have a holiday does not mean that the other members of the commune have a holiday as well.

In order to get work points, they still choose to do some simple farm work.

Of course, most people would rather rest than get those work points.

Fang Cuihua obviously did not receive such treatment. Even if she did not have to rush to harvest, she still had to go to pick grass for pigs and earn work points.

"Are you going to the mountains?"

"Well, do you still want to cut grass for the pigs?" Wu Xia asked seemingly heartlessly, but it made Fang Cuihua feel embarrassed for a moment.

She smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, there's not much work to do, so I came out to collect pig grass to earn some work points."

Wu Xia: "Well, we went to the mountains to try our luck just to earn more food."

Fang Cui nodded, then looked at Su Yan and asked with concern: "I heard about what happened yesterday. Are you okay?"

Su Yan said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'm innocent to begin with, what can go wrong?"

The three of them said goodbye quickly, but Fang Cuihua stared at Su Yan's back for a while before turning around and leaving.

Wu Xia and Su Yan reached the top of the mountain. Su Yan moved quickly and the two of them soon put some distance between them.

There were quite a lot of people coming to the mountain to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables. The two of them picked their own, and Su Yan deliberately walked fast, so Wu Xia soon couldn't find Su Yan.

Su Yan had cheated 999 times, and it was completely clear in her mind what was on the mountain.

One person, one system, still chatting happily.

Su Yan: "Didn't I ask you to help me keep an eye on that scabby guy? Have you found any other places where he hides his money?"

999: "Yes, he found out that he had been robbed in the morning, so he had to go to his secret treasure hiding place and take out some money to use."

Su Yan: "Where is it?"

999: "I took a photo of you and saved it, and marked it on the map."

Su Yan: "That's right, let's go and emptied his house tonight, so that he can know what it feels like to have his house confiscated."

999: "Aren't you going to wait until these herbs are dried before emptying them?"

Su Yan thought about it and decided that this was fine. It was just a matter of a few more or less days.

999: "There is a patch of wild Gastrodia elata ahead."

Su Yan: "Okay."

Su Yan dug forty to fifty kilograms of wild Gastrodia elata, and also picked some Aglaonema, Astragalus, and Impatiens, and covered them with the flowers. The scenery was so bright and colorful that people who didn't know would think she went up the mountain to pick flowers.

When they met Wu Xia when they were going down the mountain, she looked deliberately into Su Yan's backpack.

He was surprised and asked, "Why are you picking so many flowers?"

Su Yan explained: "These are wild vegetables. Both the Chinese mackerel and the astragalus sinensis can be cooked and eaten. Astragalus sinensis is also a medicinal herb. It can nourish the five internal organs, improve eyesight, dispel heat and wind, make people feel light and healthy, and you will not get tired of eating it for a long time. It is nourishing. In short, it is just right to eat, so I picked some and brought it back."

Wu Xia secretly took note of it, thinking that she would pick some to eat next time. She never expected that this thing that looked like a flower was actually a medicinal herb.

Su Yan went down the mountain very quickly, and Wu Xia had a hard time following him.

She didn't pick many herbs today, it was all Su Yan's fault. Couldn't he take her with him to pick herbs? He knew so many herbs but he refused to tell her, as if he was afraid that she would steal her business.

The mountain is so big and she can't pick all the fruits by herself. She is such a selfish person.

After returning to the educated youth center, Wu Xia put the herbs she picked today into a basket and dried them tomorrow.

When others asked her how much she had picked, she said a little aggrievedly, "Not as much as Su Yan. She disappeared as soon as we got to the mountain. I wanted to follow her to identify more herbs."

Liu Hongjun said sarcastically: "She has always been like this. It's not the first day you've known her. Why don't you go ask the village Chinese medicine doctor to learn more about herbs so that you can collect more in the future."

Wu Xia forced a smile and said, "Su Yan also picked some Astragalus today, saying that it can be eaten as a vegetable. If I were with her, I could also pick some for everyone to eat. The flowers can be used for cooking and as medicine, which is very good for people."

Now, not only Liu Hongjun had an opinion about Su Yan, but other male educated youth also thought that Su Yan was too stingy.

No wonder she was harassed by the Revolutionary Committee yesterday. With her personality, she can't get along with anyone. No wonder someone reported her. If you want to blame someone, blame her for not being a good person.

When he doesn't take advantage of her, he thinks Su Yan is a bad person. But when he eats the food she cooks, he thinks she is good in every way. This person is so realistic.

Su Yan's house was the farthest from the educated youth center. She could see the yard of the center, but couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

The main reason was that she didn't have the time to listen to their idle chat.
