Chapter 14 It’s time to settle some grudges
"Okay, thank you Comrade Jin." Wen Xi agreed very readily. As for whether he would find Jin Changfeng or not, that was not certain.
After all, she couldn't go to Jin Changfeng for everything. She didn't know whether Jin Changfeng was on vacation or on a mission this time. No matter what the reason was, she couldn't disturb Jin Changfeng.
"Xiaoxi, we are already so familiar with each other. It would seem a bit too strange to call me comrade anymore. You can call me Changfeng." Jin Changfeng felt it was too strange to hear the little girl calling him "Comrade Jin".
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Jin from now on!" Wen Xi looked into Jin Changfeng's eyes and said coquettishly, "Brother Jin, is that okay?"
Wen Xi really couldn't bring herself to call out the name Changfeng. She didn't dare to address such a great heroic comrade by his name, as she felt it was too disrespectful.
Jin Changfeng was naturally dissatisfied with this title. He sighed softly and thought to himself that they had just met, so he shouldn't act too exaggerated. Just take it slow!
One day she will call him Changfeng or Brother Changfeng.
Thinking of her little hands around his waist and sweetly calling him "Brother Changfeng", Jin Changfeng felt his heart tighten and his breathing stagnated. As if he was afraid that she would notice something, Jin Changfeng left quickly, as if he was fleeing in panic.
Wen Xi pulled out the key from the courtyard gate, then closed and locked the gate. He came to the door of the house and pulled out the key from it again.
When she bought the door lock, she specifically chose one with three keys.
"Jiaojiao, Xiaoyue, the three of us will each have a key to the courtyard gate and the house door. As for the key to the room door, everyone keep it on their own!" Wenxi handed the keys to Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue, "Find a rope to tie the keys and hang them around your necks. Don't lose them. If someone else picks them up, we'll be in danger."
"Got it. We will definitely keep the house key safe." Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue made assurances again and again.
"We've been sitting on the train for several days and haven't taken a shower for several days. I'll go boil some hot water so the three of us can take a good shower tonight." Wen Xi said and turned to go to the kitchen.
Use that oil-free iron pot to boil bath water.
While lighting the straw and stuffing the firewood in, Wen Xi thought silently in his heart that he had only signed in once today and there were still two more chances to sign in. He hoped that he could sign out something more useful to him in the evening.
For example, the stove would preferably be a three-legged iron stove that burns wood. She doesn't want a coal stove because a coal stove requires coal blocks, and they are in the countryside, so there is no way they can get coal blocks.
After the first pot of hot water was ready, Wen Xi asked Shen Jiaojiao to take a bath first.
Although no one has lived in this house for a long time, it is small but fully equipped with everything, including a kitchen, woodshed, bathroom and toilet!
In the previous life, the next batch of educated youth had no place to live, so the village arranged for them to live here directly without even having to pay rent. However, they had to spend one or two hundred yuan to move in in advance. It was really unfair.
It didn't cost that much to buy the house, but all the furniture was new, so all in all it cost almost that much.
When Wen Xi was about to sign in for the second time today, there was a sudden knock on the door. She quickly came to her senses, got up and went out to open the door.
Unexpectedly, it was Song Lan and Zhou Bai who were standing outside. It was getting dark and Shen Jiaojiao was still taking a shower in the bathroom, so Wen Xi did not invite them in, but stood directly outside the gate.
"Song Zhiqing, Zhou Zhiqing, why are you here?" Wen Xi asked in surprise, "Have you all settled down?"
Song Lan nodded, "Wen Zhiqing, we have settled down. We came to see you tonight to inform you that the old educated youths at the educated youth site will welcome us tomorrow night. You must come then!"
"Thank you for coming to inform us. We will definitely go there." Now that everything has been settled, it is natural for us to go and meet everyone at the educated youth site. After all, we will have to live together for three years!
After Song Lan and Zhou Bai left, Wen Xi closed the gate and a dark look flashed in his eyes. It was time to settle some grudges!
Although the tragedy in her previous life came from her elder sister and brother-in-law, and had nothing to do with the educated youth in the Youth League House, the educated youth in her previous life had plotted against her because of her young age, and had forced her to do many more things. How could she let them go easily?
Back in the kitchen, Wen Xi quickly signed in. The second time he signed in, he got the tripod iron stove he wanted, which also came with a kettle, so that he would have hot water anytime and anywhere.
The third time she signed in was for the shower tent. With this thing, she wouldn't feel cold when showering in winter. But she couldn't use it now. She had to wait until the next time she went to town and then find an excuse to bring it back.
After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue finished their showers and returned to their rooms, Wen Xi also went to take a shower. In those days, bathing conditions were not so good, so everyone used a tub bath.
Wen Xi sat in a half-bath of hot water and quickly took a shower with a towel. It was so cold that she was shivering. However, she hadn't taken a shower for several days since the day she got on the train. She couldn't bear not taking a shower any longer.
After taking a shower, she was shivering so much that she couldn't even put on her clothes. She just threw on her long-sleeved shirt and long pants and ran into the room and got directly into the bed. She continued to shiver in the cold bed.
The next morning, at some unknown time, the big rooster in the village started crowing. After being woken up, Wen Xi couldn't fall asleep, so he lay in bed and signed in for the first time.
Unexpectedly, she signed for a whole box of eggs, 360 eggs, enough for the three sisters to eat for half a year.
Wen Xi lay in the warm bed for a while, then got up, folded the quilt, and went straight to the kitchen to make breakfast.
After washing the rice, he put it in the pot, took out two sweet potatoes, washed them, cut them into cubes, and put them in the pot. Then he put the steamer on the pot, washed three eggs, put them on a plate, covered the pot, and Wenxi started to make a fire and cook breakfast.
Wenxi always feels that the egg shell has a smell of chicken shit, so she doesn’t like to put the eggs in the pot and cook them with porridge. She just steams them in a plate, and when the porridge is cooked, the eggs will naturally be cooked too.
Two iron pots, one for cooking porridge and the other for boiling water.
After the water boiled, Wenxi first filled two thermos bottles for the meeting, and then filled another pot with water.
This time the water was for washing and did not need to be particularly hot, so she took out some of the firewood from the stove and put it into the stove hole for cooking porridge.
As soon as Wen Xi finished washing up, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue got up.
