Chapter 438: Educated Youth Deliver Meat
Zhou Mingxuan and Zheng Pengcheng finally returned home. They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
“Those kids have such loud voices.
Sitting on the bike, he shouted in my ear, 'I'm riding a bike, I'm riding a bike.'
Almost everyone in the village could hear that sound.
I was shocked at first and almost couldn’t ride the bike steadily. It took me a long time to get used to it.” Zhao Junhao complained.
Zhou Mingxuan also laughed and said, "They seemed to be afraid that their voices would be outshined by others, so each one was louder than the other.
My head is still buzzing.”
The two put the bicycles away and put the things in the basket in front of the bicycles into the kitchen.
Looking at the meat in front of him, Zhou Mingxuan said, "It's already this late, let's just have a simple lunch today and have some noodles.
I'll divide the meat among the people in the educated youth camp, namely Zhang Yingchun, Xia Lan and the three people who share the same bunk bed."
"Okay, you cook the noodles at home and I'll deliver the meat.
Give some to Liu Zhiqing, and also give some to your grandfather.
You have been here for so long, but you haven't taken care of your grandpa. It is still Liu Zhiqing who has been taking care of him. "
Zhou Mingxuan laughed at himself, "That's right, I came here under the pretext of taking care of grandpa, but I didn't do anything.
Now that I have moved out of the educated youth camp, and Zheng Pengcheng is no longer watching me in a few days, I have to go and see my grandfather and take good care of him on weekdays. "
“In fact, there is nothing you can do, the most you can do is secretly get them some firewood, and hunt for some meat.
Liu Zhiqing has a way to get the food, but you have to pay for it.
Don't just give your grandfather's portion. There are so many people in the cowshed, and Liu Zhiqing can take care of them all. We are men, and we can't be so stingy.
This money is not yours to pay, your family will definitely give it to you." Zhao Junhao said.
"I think so too.
But, Haozi, we can't always rely on our family for support, we still have to find a way to make some money."
"Your idea is good, but you should wait for a while, at least until Zheng Pengcheng and Fang Dong are dealt with.
On this day, we must not do anything out of the ordinary, lest we bring disaster upon ourselves and our families.”
"You're right, we have to wait a little longer."
Zhao Junhao came to the educated youth site carrying meat. The gate was ajar and voices could be heard from inside.
He pushed the door open and saw Zhang Yingchun and Xia Lan's room. They were washing dishes and it seemed they had finished their meal.
"It seems that I am late. You have all finished eating," Zhao Junhao said.
"Zhao Zhiqing, why are you here?" Zhang Yingchun asked.
"Mingxuan and I are moving into a new house today. According to the rules, we should hold a housewarming party and treat you all to a meal.
But our cooking skills are just so-so, the food is barely edible and we can’t prepare enough food for so many people.
We can only settle for the next best thing and send some meat over so that you can prepare it and eat it yourselves, just as if you were attending our housewarming party.
I hope you won’t blame us for being lazy and stingy, and forgive us.” Zhao Junhao said modestly.
“I had thought of sending it here earlier so you could cook it for lunch, but we were surrounded by villagers and were delayed.
You can only cook it and eat it at night."
After Zhao Junhao finished speaking, he handed one portion of the meat in his hand to Zhang Yingchun, one portion to Xia Lan, and the other portion to Zhou Wenbing who came out after hearing the sound.
The three of them declined and refused to accept it.
There were few people sharing the place with Zhang Yingchun and Xia Lan, so Zhou Mingxuan only got about half a pound of meat, while Zhou Wenbing got one pound of meat.
"Zhao Zhiqing, you and Zhou Zhiqing are too polite. There is no need to spend so much money."
“We give it to you sincerely, just take it.
We have been together for two months, and you know that Mingxuan and I are both straightforward people, not fake people, so don't be polite to us."
The few of them were humble again, but finally accepted it under Zhao Junhao's insistence.
Zhang Yingchun looked at Fang Dong, who was staring at the meat and couldn't pull it off, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
She rolled her eyes and said, "Zhao Zhiqing, why are you and Zhou Zhiqing thinking of buying a bicycle?"
“In fact, the day we came, we walked back to the village behind the bullock cart for almost two hours, and we wanted to buy tickets, but there were no tickets.
We told our family and asked them to help us get the tickets and give us money to buy bicycles.
Just two days ago, when I went to pick up the package, my family finally sent us the money and the ticket.
The moment we saw the money ticket, we thought about buying the bicycle back, but it was not convenient to take consecutive days off, so we had to wait for two days.
Today, we took the excuse of moving house to not work, so we went to town to buy it back."
"You know what? Riding a bicycle is much faster and easier than walking. It took us less than 40 minutes to ride all the way back."
After Zhao Junhao finished speaking, he took the initiative to say, “If you can ride a bicycle, when you want to go to town in the future, don’t use the car when you catch us, just come and borrow a bicycle from us.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to ride, you can come to us and learn.
Learning to ride a bicycle is not difficult, it is easy to learn.
But if you want to learn how to drive, it would be better to go there in a few days. These days, our place is probably crowded with villagers, so you have to wait a long time before it's your turn.
When their interest dies down and there are fewer people around, you can go over and learn.”
"Really? That's great. Thank you, Zhao Zhiqing."
The educated youth began to express their gratitude one after another.
"Thank you, it's not a big deal."
Zhao Junhao said a few more words, then made the excuse that he was in a hurry to go home to order dinner, and then said goodbye and left.
Zhou Wenbing followed him out the door under the pretext of seeing him off.
After Zhao Junhao left, Zhang Yingchun said to Fang Dong, "I said Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing are not that kind of people.
You are just evil-minded, so you think other people's hearts are evil too."
"Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing were so generous that they not only sent us meat but also lent us their bicycles.
The three of us have two kilograms of meat in total, which is enough for the city to supply for two months.
I was reluctant to give away so much meat and even lent my new bicycle to others to ride." Liu Zhaodi sighed.
Seeing that everyone was bullying him openly or secretly, Fang Dong knew he was in the wrong, so he said nothing and turned back to the house.
When everyone saw him leave, they ignored him.
"I hope those villagers can learn it quickly and give up their positions sooner so that we can also have a good time," said Tang Qiangjun.
Xia Lan was surprised, "You don't know how to ride a bike?"
"We don't have a bicycle at home. I used to learn how to ride using my classmate's bicycle, but I never rode it again and I don't know if I can still ride it," explained Tang Qiangjun.
"Don't worry, you'll be able to do it if you just ride it and pedal twice. Your body still has the memory."
Seeing that Zhou Wenbing had sent him out of the educated youth camp but had not returned, Zhao Junhao understood and said, "Brother Zhou, do you have something to say to me?"
Zhou Wenbing nodded, "We were talking about you and Wenxuan buying bicycles before. Fang Dong was instigating, saying that you and Mingxuan bought bicycles as soon as you moved out of the educated youth camp instead of earlier. It was obvious that he was guarding against us and didn't want to lend us the bicycles.
Fang Dong came back with Zheng Zhiqing before, and we guess that he said this because he was instructed by Zheng."
Zhao Junhao didn't expect this to happen. No wonder Zhang Yingchun looked at Fang Dong with strange eyes just now and asked him why he suddenly thought of buying a bicycle. It seemed that she wanted to shut Fang Dong up.
"I see. Thank you, Brother Zhou, for telling me about this."
