Chapter 19 Staying at the Educated Youth Home

The captain pointed to the houses inside and said, "This is the basic layout. The two houses in the middle are big houses, and there are two small houses on each side. The row at the back is the same. Now the houses in the front row are occupied by people. We will let you know later. Your educated youth captain is telling you."

Several people looked at the room but said nothing. Wen Xin was still very satisfied. She planned to live in a small house by herself, so that it would be convenient for her to take things and occasionally open a small stove for herself. This way your secrets can be better kept.

"You new educated youths, you will have a day off tomorrow and start working the day after tomorrow. The food brigade will lend you some first, but not much. You can get it yourself later." After saying this, the brigade leader shouted to the big room in the middle. "Wang Zhiqing, please come out."

After saying that, a male educated youth came out of the big room in the middle, "Captain, is this the new educated youth?"

"Yes, you tell them the situation and arrange accommodation. I'll leave if I have anything else to do." After saying this, the captain walked out of the courtyard and left.

After the captain left, the man said, "Hello, I am the captain of the educated youth, and my name is Wang Aiguo. Let me first tell you about the situation of the old educated youth. There are seven of us in total, four male educated youth and three female educated youth. We male and female educated youths all live in this big house respectively. You can choose the remaining rooms by yourself, and you have to clean them up before you can live in them."

After saying that, they were asked to discuss how to live there.

"Yingying and I live in the big house in the row of houses at the back." Wang Yumei said after discussing with Zhang Yingying.

"Then I'll live in the small house on the left side of the big house." Zhao Wanqing thought about it and decided to live by herself.

"I live in the hut next to Wanqing." Wen Xin followed suit.

"I'll live in the small house on the right side of your big house." Lin Kai thought about it and chose to live in the front yard. After all, there are girls in the backyard, so it would not be good for him to choose the backyard himself.

Seeing that they had chosen a place to live, Wang Aiguo nodded and continued, "Okay. Then you can go over and clean up later. After the new educated youths arrive, they can rest for a day before going to work. You'd better take advantage of your free time tomorrow to put in the things you need to buy." Everything has been arranged, otherwise it will be difficult to have time to go out later.”

Several people nodded in agreement.

"As for eating, we all eat together. The female educated youth take turns cooking, and the male educated youth are responsible for carrying water and firewood. Do you want to partner with us or eat by yourself?" After they understood, Wang Aiguo continued to talk about the next thing. question.

"I'll eat with you." Lin Kai replied. He was not good at cooking, and he was too embarrassed to share a meal with four girls in the backyard. He was afraid of making people gossip, so he chose to partner with the people in the front yard.

The other four people all chose to eat by themselves.

Wang Aiguo nodded without making any comment, "You have just arrived and don't have centimeters. The team will lend you food first. At the end of the year, you have to pay it back in centimeters. If the centimeters are not enough, you have to use money to offset it. You can go get the food later. . You can come to the front yard to have a meal together in the evening, and just think that we are here to take care of you."

"Okay. I'll bother you then." Wen Xin said.

"There's nothing else to do. You go ahead and clean up. I still have to go to work." After saying that, Wang Aiguo went back to work.

Seeing that Wang Aiguo was gone, they took their luggage and went to their own rooms to pack.

As soon as Wen Xin entered her small room, she saw a single fire bed. Looking around, the wall between this house and the next house should be a wall of fire. It will be warmer in the winter.

The single-person kang is about the same size as Wen Xin's bed when she was in college, with a stove hole underneath. In winter, it needs to be burned alone. Depending on how cold the winter here is, we will have to stock up on more firewood, otherwise we won’t be able to survive the winter.

Wen Xin believes that the fire kang is a great wisdom invention of the Northeast people. Here, almost every house has a fire kang and a fire wall. The fire wall is a wall shared by two houses. In this way, when winter comes, the fire wall heats the houses on both sides at the same time, which is like the heating in later generations.

When you first enter the house, there is a small stove on the left, just suitable for one person to cook. When it gets cold in winter, heat this place and the kang will be hot too.

I still have to find an opportunity to make a small pot. Wen thought.

As for other chairs, tables and cabinets, there are none.

Wen Xin looked at the house, planning to clean it first, and then go to the village to see if there was any furniture maker. She needed to buy some furniture for the house.

Roll up your sleeves and just do it. Wen Xin put her luggage aside first.

First, I swept the kang clean, took out old newspapers and laid a layer on the kang, and then found a mat from the space and put it on it. Find a bedding from your luggage and put it on your bed. He took another piece of homespun cloth and circled it around the outside of the kang, which was equivalent to making the kang into layers. This can be regarded as a private space.

I swept the small stove again, swept the floor clean, poured some water on the floor and mopped it again.

As for the other luggage, it has not been taken out yet, and even if it is taken out, there is no place to put it.

After cleaning up, Wen Xin felt sore and backache. I haven't had a meal since I got off the car, and I felt very hungry after finishing packing.

I took out the chicken cake that I had put in before and ate it, and ate the remaining eggs before I felt a little better in my stomach.

After eating, I sat on the kang and took a rest. I was still thinking about going to work. I don't know if my small body can handle it. Centimeter Wenxin doesn't care too much. At worst, she has to pay for it with money. She has money now.

But you must not not go to work. If people know about it, they will be reported. The purpose of sending educated youths to the countryside was to support the rural areas and work. If you don't go through the political review after the trade union influence, it will be very troublesome.

Fortunately, the house I live in is in pretty good condition, so I live alone. If you live in a big house, there is no guarantee that everyone will not have any conflicts. It is unrealistic for adults to move out and live in this age, and it would be too unrealistic to build a house with their own money.

These days, everyone’s legal knowledge is generally lacking. Every village is full of bad-minded and daring people, or these people don't know the serious consequences of what they do. They just think it's no big deal.

Especially female educated youth, in this era where rumors can kill people, they are very, very dangerous. Some villagers go to great lengths to find wives in order to marry city dwellers, or some bachelors and gangsters in the village.

Wen Xin didn't want to think that everyone was so bad, but she still had to be wary of everyone. This way you can better protect yourself.

Wen Xin had a headache as she was thinking about all kinds of things in her mind.

Let go of these things for the time being, things that haven't happened yet, Wen Xin doesn't want to put too much pressure on herself, just let nature take its course, feel no regrets, and protect herself.

After that, Wen Xin planned for them to go get the food together first.
