Eating melons

Chapter 632: Unhygienic

The result of not daring to go into the mountains was that I could only pick up some firewood.

After all, everything that could be picked up from the periphery had already been picked up, and only a few were left here and there, which the children didn't even care about.

However, for two people who had never picked up firewood before, they naturally didn't know that these were sparse small firewoods that even children would not look down on. The two were still quite satisfied with their results. They picked up a bundle and went back when they felt it was enough to burn.

When the two arrived at the educated youth site, the female educated youth who was cooking at home was almost looking forward to it.

To be honest, they were a little worried about the two of them going up the mountain.

Also, they were really hungry and were waiting for the firewood to cook.

The old educated youth might have been angry because they had said a few words to him about snatching the stove, so he refused to give them any firewood and even refused to lend it to them.

So when the two hungry people saw the firewood collector coming back, their eyes lit up.

The old educated youth shook his head when he saw the firewood they had collected. They had been up the mountain for so long and only collected such a small amount of firewood, which was barely enough to cook a dish tonight, and there was no guarantee that the dish could even be cooked.

And that was indeed the case, except that the firewood ran out just as the rice was steamed.

The meal was already cooked like this, and it was impossible to go to the mountain to buy more food because it was so far away. I could only pay the old educated youth to buy a bundle of firewood.

Moreover, there was no unity at all when cooking. Only a few female educated youth who knew how to cook were cooking, while those who didn't know how to cook just watched from the side.

The same was true for the male educated youth. The two who collected firewood and bought a bundle of firewood kept sulking nearby.

As for the others, the person who fetched water made two trips and stopped moving after seeing that there was enough water for cooking tonight and tomorrow morning.

The others just watched helplessly, no one offered a hand, and no one suggested fetching more water.

After they had finished cooking the meal with great difficulty, Wang Ying couldn't help but say, "There was still so much fire in the stove, but they just threw water into the dirty pot and left it alone."

"There's such a big fire down there, don't you guys have water to boil? Aren't you planning to take a bath tonight?

You've sweated so much and you're not going to take a shower yet. Who are you trying to stink to death?

Just because you can't smell your own bad odor, do you think others can't smell it either?

In a dormitory like this, where everyone lives together, can't you be less unhygienic and more clean? "

Upon hearing this, the new educated youth blushed and were extremely embarrassed. They really had not expected this to happen. It was not unhygienic, so they hurriedly washed the pot and boiled water.

But their water was enough for them to cook, but not enough for them to take a bath, so the water carrier hurried to fetch more water.

Seeing that they were preparing to boil water for a bath, Wang Ying's complexion looked a little better.

If they really didn't take a shower tonight, she really wouldn't be able to sleep because of how smelly they looked.

After the water carrier came back and boiled the water, the exhausted new educated youth finally had a meal.

The moment they put the food into their mouths, the new educated youth no longer cared about anything else, whether it tasted good or not, they just stuffed it into their mouths because they were really hungry.

The old educated youth shook their heads when they saw the new educated youth’s full plates of rice, as they were almost eating even more than them.

But these new educated youth can never compare with these old educated youth.

They have been here for several years, at least one year. Although their annual work points are not many, the food they are given is enough to barely make ends meet.

But they still had some money to share, which was enough to buy food for a year.

But these new educated youth were different. They had no money or food, so they had to buy food in the first year.

There are only a few of them who are well-off. They don't need food coupons to buy food in the Red Star Brigade, and they can get as much as they want. However, the overall price is still a little higher than outside.

If they continue to eat like this, the amount of food they will need before it is distributed will not be a small amount.

Moreover, they can't get much food or money this year. Even if they use all the food and money they get to buy food, it won't be enough for next year.

This means that they will have to pay for food next year, so the way they eat is simply not acceptable.

It's true that only those who don't run the household know how expensive food, oil, salt and firewood are. When they first came down, they wouldn't dare to eat like this. The food they ate could be used as a mirror.

The new educated youth really didn’t know about this. In fact, the new female educated youth didn’t know how to cook or how much to cook.

Although they can cook at home, their mother provides all the food and they just cook.

They are not qualified to touch the food, and they cook whatever their mother gives them.

Therefore, if they are allowed to distribute and decide on their own now, they really don’t know how to distribute or how much food to take out.
