Chapitre 7: Incident During Mealtime
Éditeur: Henyee Translations
Yu Bing turned to look at Yu Yan with a smile as she said indifferently, "Then you can assign the tasks."
Yu Yan looked at Yu Bing and turned around proudly to size up the kitchen. She thought about what simple work she wanted to do. However, when she looked at the earthen stove and the few large pots in the kitchen, then at the rice in everyone's lunch boxes on the table and the vegetables and oil the village had prepared for their lunch, she felt that she could only clean up.
Thus, she rolled her eyes at Yu Bing and started to clean with the broom made of straw placed on the stove.
The current Yu Yan no longer hid her dissatisfaction with Yu Bing. Her hatred for her sister made her give up on her plan to be gentle at first.
Yu Bing couldn't be bothered to argue with Yu Yan, but Jiang Chun didn't want to indulge her, so she specifically walked to Yu Yan and rolled her eyes.
Yu Yan pouted as she watched the two of them go against her. She chose to remain silent and only secretly stared at the rice in her lunch box to see if they had transferred it to Yu Bing's lunch box.
In order to eat early, Yu Yan didn't play tricks when she cleaned. She obediently cleaned the stove, swept the floor, and swept the spider webs in the corners.
With everyone working together, they finally had lunch an hour later.
After the meal, everyone gathered under the eaves to chat. There were only a few families in front of the temporary residence. They could see the fields directly in front of the house.
The villagers had all gone home to eat. They could only see the rice, which had been mostly harvested already, in the field. The few of them drank warm water and looked at the scene that they could only see in textbooks when they were studying in the city. At this moment, a breeze happened to blow in their faces, making everyone temporarily forget their fatigue from long-distance travel. The scenery in front of them seemed quite unique.
Li Zhen rubbed his hands. Under the other two's signaling, he said, "Yu Bing, the three of us don't know how to cook. Can we eat with you?"
The other two boys also expressed that they would be in charge of fetching firewood and water.
Yu Bing agreed readily. "Alright, then Jiang Chun and I will be in charge of cooking in the future."
Yu Bing looked at the silent Yu Yan and took the initiative to ask, "Yu Yan, if you want to join us, you can be in charge of cleaning our room and courtyard every day."
Yu Yan raised her head proudly and said, "I plan to move in with the villagers tomorrow, but I'll still eat with you guys tonight. Yu Bing, your culinary skills are really not that good." After saying that, she even shook her head in disdain.
Everyone couldn't help but think of how tasty the food Yu Yan had cooked was during lunch just now. They didn't think it wasn't good.
If it was anyone else asking this question, Yu Yan might have agreed. However, it was Yu Bing who asked this question. Yu Yan was even more determined to go against her. She decided to go to the village later to see if there were any families who could cooperate.
Before she came, Yu Yan had already found out that people like them who came to the city to the countryside to support the rural construction could use their rations to go to the villagers' houses. The villagers' families usually raised chickens, and the children at home sometimes went to the river to fish. The people who cooperated with them could occasionally eat meat.
When Yu Yan, who was originally hesitating, heard that Yu Bing wanted her to clean the room and courtyard, she was even more unhappy.
Yu Bing didn't know how to cook when she first arrived in the countryside in her previous life. Yu Yan chose to go to the villagers' house. However, when she thought of what happened later, Yu Bing secretly chuckled. This time, she took the initiative to lure her into saying that she wouldn't eat with them anymore.
The boys could also tell that although there were three girls, there were two camps.
However, they had come all the way here together. Everyone saw Yu Yan's actions towards Yu Bing. They were a little unhappy with Yan Yan's provocative actions and secretly heaved a sigh of relief that they learned that they didn't have to eat together with Yu Yan anymore.
After discussing, everyone returned to their rooms to take a nap.
An hour later, everyone got up one after another. This was because the village chief had arranged for everyone to be given 30 pounds of rice and 2 taels of oil per month. However, they could think of ways to buy vegetables from the local villagers, or exchange them with stamps and items that the villagers needed. Of course, they could also plant them themselves.
Yu Bing planned to exchange for some vegetables, eggs, and vegetable seeds. The boys also took the initiative to pay for the food. After all, they could pay for the rice themselves, but Yu Bing couldn't use her own stamps and money to exchange for the vegetables. After some discussion, they handed them over to Yu Bing for exchange.
Yu Bing brought Jiang Chun to a family not far from the resettlement point. This family had a lame widow and two sons. The eldest son sacrificed himself for the country during war, and the youngest son was a soldier in the army.
