Chapter 105: Food distribution

Huo Xunye reached out to take it and said warmly, "Okay, I understand."

I handed over the money by the way.

Wen Xin took it and put it away.

After that, the two started chatting, and the topics were all over the place, which was not awkward at all.

Wen Xin seemed to have remembered something and suddenly asked, "I heard from Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo that you are a soldier."

Huo Xunye nodded, "Yes."

"What about you?" Wen Xin was confused.

Huo Xunye explained, "I applied to come here to better take care of my grandparents and protect their safety."

Wen Xin nodded understandingly and said nothing more.

Huo Xunye was still waiting for Wen Xin to continue asking questions so that he could explain his situation. Unexpectedly, she stopped asking, which was a bit regretful.

Before he could say anything, the sound of gongs was heard outside.

"What's going on?" Wen Xin asked.

Huo Xunye was even more unclear, "I don't know either. Let's ask other people."

Before he could leave, Wang Aiguo from the front yard came over.

"Wen Zhiqing, Huo Zhiqing, you are all here. Quick, call everyone and go to the drying area. The captain has something to say."

Wen Xin asked, "Brother Wang, do you know what it will be?"

Wang Aiguo replied, "I guess it's time to settle the work points."

Everyone else heard this and quickly packed up and headed there.

When we arrived, there were already many people there.

Educated youth and educated youth stand together.

When everyone arrived, the captain knocked on it twice more and began to speak.

"I called everyone here today to calculate everyone's work points. Everyone lined up and came one by one. Also, tomorrow each family will send someone, and we will go fishing. It's still the old rule, according to work points, I think. If you want more, you can buy them separately. Okay, let’s get started.”

Wen Xin was a little excited when she heard about fishing, "Fishing? Where to fish? Are there a lot of fish?"

Li Qian replied, "Every year at this time, the team will arrange for people to catch fish, and they can catch hundreds of fish. We shared two fish before the educated youth point, and I don't know how many we can share this year."

Wen Xin thought that there were only two of them in the entire Educated Youth Point, so how could they be enough to eat? You still have to buy some yourself.

When lining up, the educated youths were all together.

Li Qian also asked, "How much grain do you want to exchange?"

Zhao Wanqing thought for a while and said, "How much can I exchange for this at most?"

Li Qian said, "It depends on how many work points you have. Anyway, they are all deducted from it. I suggest you exchange more or a little more. It is much cheaper than buying food outside."

Several other people also nodded, thinking about how much they would change.

The captain was watching from above, but no one was causing trouble.

When Wen Xin and others were queued up, the accountant said, "Zhang Yingying, the work points are 511, how much food will be exchanged for?"

Zhang Yingying said, "One hundred catties of coarse grains and forty catties of fine grains."

After the accountant settles the bill, just give her the list and return the remaining money.

Wen Xin had 408 work points, all of which were replaced by grain, half of which were coarse grains and half of which were fine grains.

The accountant still disagreed a little and suggested, "Are you sure you want to change everything? You can change a little less. You have to leave some money for yourself. In winter, just eat less."

Wen Xin shook her head and refused, "It's okay, thank you, uncle, I'll take care of it."

The accountant saw that she was determined to do this and didn't try to persuade her.

Zhao Wanqing also chose the same choice as Wen Xin.

Wang Yumei changed to slightly more whole grains.

The other villagers felt sour in their hearts and mouths when they saw these educated youths exchanging food.

"You're really lucky. You can exchange everything for grains. It's really a waste to exchange so much for fine grains."

"That's right, girls, just eat less."

Wen Xin always chose to ignore such words.

But Zhao Wanqing was a little angry.

"Xinxin, let's go back and make dumplings to eat today. I still have meat. The teacher's salary is rich and well-paid, so we can't treat ourselves badly."

Although Wen Xin didn't intend to care about it, she didn't intend to let go of this opportunity to ridicule.

"Okay, I still have pastries there. We can eat whatever we want. We are not like others. If we can't eat it, we will say that others can't afford it."

Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei covered their mouths and snickered.

Although the villagers were angry, there was nothing they could do.

As a teacher, I have a salary, tickets and work point subsidies, so I can really afford it.

After everyone at the educated youth spot was finished, they sent the food back first.

There will be a fishing activity tomorrow, and there will be people at the educated youth spot.

Wen Xin and the others called Li Qian to have a good meal.

Everyone is responsible for a part, and it is done very quickly.

Wang Yumei is good at making stuffings, including cabbage and pork, and a portion of leeks and eggs.

Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing are having a meeting.

Li Qian is responsible for rolling out dumpling wrappers.

Zhang Yingying is in the bag.

The noodle maker also joined the dumpling making team after finishing his busy work.

Wrap four large lids, half of each filling.

Wen Xin sneaked up to Zhao Wanqing and whispered, "Later, take it to the cowshed and give it to uncle, aunt, Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo."

Zhao Wanqing looked at Wen Xin gratefully, "Xin Xin,"

Wen Xin quickly waved her hand, "Okay, okay, don't say thank you. While everyone else is cooking now, you go and come back quickly."

Zhao Wanqing packed her lunch box and went to the cowshed.

Zhang Yingying took a look and asked, "We are about to eat, where is Wanqing?"

Wen Xin said calmly, "She said she was going to meet someone outside because she had something to do."

The others didn't say anything, everyone had a secret.

Zhao Wanqing ran over, knocked on the door and entered.

She handed the dumplings that were still hot in her arms to her parents and Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo, panting, "Quick, eat them while they're hot."

Mother Zhao said, "Is this what it is?"

Zhao Wanqing regained her breath and said, "Our educated youth group is making dumplings today. Wen Xin and I made some extra noodles. This is for you to eat."

They were all moved and didn't know what to say.

Zhao Wanqing said, "Eat quickly, I'll come back to get the lunch box next time."

Before leaving, he said, "Eat it while it's hot, but don't leave it for the next meal."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Mother Zhao looked at her daughter leaving and said, "She has really grown up."

Father Zhao also said, "Yes, they are all good children."

Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo were also filled with emotion.

Mother Zhao quickly opened the lunch box and said, "Eat quickly, the children are so grateful. It smells so delicious."

Zhao Wanqing, who ran back to the educated youth spot, patted her chest and took a deep breath before entering the house.

Wen Xin looked at her, winked, opened her lips slightly, and said the word "cotton".

Zhao Wanqing understood instantly and closed the door carefully.

He turned around and whispered, "The man from the town came to tell me just now that the cotton has arrived and you can go get it."

Others were very excited when they heard this and expressed how much they wanted.

Wen Xin organized, "Later, we can count how much each person wants on a piece of paper and give it to Wanqing. This will make it easier for her to calculate the total."
