Everyone had a full stomach after eating. Bai Ruyun did some sewing for a while as usual, and everyone went to bed early.

Since I had to go to work the next day, I consciously went to bed. Even the noisy Bai Ruchuan did not make a fuss and just went to bed obediently.

Early the next morning, Bai Ruxue woke up and cooked rice, then heated a pan with oil to fry eggs, fried a pot of egg fried rice, and heated up the unfinished dishes last night. The five siblings added

Wang Cuihua finished her meal early.

"Mom, when we all go to work, please lock the door and don't let the baby in! She might come over while we are not at home!" Bai Ruxia reminded her mother.

"Don't worry, I have put away all the things at home, what will happen if she comes in?" Bai Ruxue looked at the vigilant Bai Ruxia with a smile. She had already put all the rare things and food in the house into the space. Anyway,

Her mother didn't have time to cook for her two children, so she cooked it herself when they came back at noon.

Moreover, every family had two meals at this time, so she prepared snacks for her younger brothers and sisters, and secretly let them eat some when they got hungry while working.

"The eldest sister is still awesome!" Bai Rushan looked at his third sister and praised her.

"Let's go, let's go! I'll be late!" Bai Ruchuan was a little excited, because this was the first time he went to work after the Chinese New Year, and he missed many of his friends.

"Wear more clothes! It's still very cold outside!" Wang Cuihua shouted from behind.

The excited ones have long since disappeared.

"Mom, don't worry! I'm watching them! I left some twists for you in the kang cabinet. Remember to eat it at noon! Let's go!" Bai Ruxue finally said to Wang Cuihua and left.

When we arrived at the brigade headquarters, many people had already arrived, chatting in groups of three or two.

Every day when you start work, you have to go to the brigade headquarters to pick up tools, take roll call, and arrange work. Today there are even more people coming. They are all happy that the brigade can work so early, except for Bai Ruxue.

Because working means having centimeters, and having centimeters means having food, so they won’t have enough water every day.

Although there are relief grains after the New Year, many people still don't have enough to eat, so they save food and eat muddy porridge with watery soup. That is, cornstarch batter, also called muddy porridge.

"Xiaoxue, here here!" Bai Ruxue had just arrived, and the little ones had already found their playmates. She was looking around, and Wang Xuehua called her. Next to her was An Liangliang, An Quanzi's eldest daughter.

Three are the best friends.

"Coming!" Bai Ruxue walked towards them, but just as she was approaching them, Zhao Hongmei appeared next to her and blocked her way.

"Is something wrong?" Bai Ruxue asked coolly.

"Comrade Bai Ruxue, do you know that Comrade Zhang Yuan has returned to Kyoto?" Zhao Hongmei asked loudly.

Bai Ruxue didn't answer her, just stared at her, waiting for her next words.

Zhao Hongmei knew that she would not answer her, so she simply continued, "I have told you before that I won't want a country bumpkin like you. I have plenty of money. What's the point of a bicycle, sewing machine, and watch? I'm just playing tricks on you poor people. Look,

She went back to Kyoto to get married and left you behind!" Zhao Hongmei said proudly, as if Zhang Yuan was going to marry her.

Marriage? How did she know? Or was she just making it up? Zhang Yuan never told himself that he returned to Kyoto because of this!

"Huh... You are a little too strict! As an educated young man, you talk nonsense and make up nonsense in public like this. What about your quality?" Bai Ruxue replied calmly.

"Who said I made it up? That's what Zhang Yuan's letter said. We were all there when he read the letter, and Li Jianshe said he was getting married!" Zhao Hongmei shouted louder, and looked everywhere.

Li Jianshe came over to testify for her.

"Zhao Hongmei, are you saying that Zhang Yuan, that little educated youth, left Bai Ruxue to get married?" Qian Tiegang, who was standing next to Bai Ruxue from the West Courtyard, asked without thinking it was a big deal.

"Yes! That's it!" Zhao Hongmei nodded.

Qian Tiegang belongs to Bai Ruxue's West Campus. He is twenty years old. He usually does nothing but earns a few cents from work. He has no partner yet.

I usually have some thoughts about Bai Ruxue. On the day of Bai Ruxue's engagement, he spent the whole day at home. His parents had a holiday with Bai Daliang and his wife, so they locked their only son at home and didn't let them out.

Later, Qian Tiegang would secretly climb up the wall to peek from time to time, but Bai Ruxue had very little time at home, and Zhang Yuan came over three times a day, so he couldn't even find a chance to talk.

"This bastard dares to throw the person he is engaged to get married into, that's too much!" Qian Tiegang cursed, but he felt happy in his heart. With Zhang Yuan's little educated youth gone, would he have a chance? He didn't care.

Bai Ruxue is engaged.

Qian Tiegang talked to himself, but no one really paid attention to him.

"Zhao Hongmei, you have to keep your mouth shut! Zhang Yuan just went back to Kyoto to see his grandparents! Don't think that people are as dirty as you!" Bai Ruxue said sarcastically and ignored Zhao Hongmei again.

, at this time Wang Xuehua and An Liangliang also came over.

"Even if you don't look at your dignity, you can't get along with others, and now you are spreading rumors, who gives you the courage?" Wang Xuehua also stood in front of Bai Ruxue with a protective look.

"Li Jianshe, come here!" Zhao Hongmei was said to be shameless. She found Li Jianshe in the crowd and shouted out quickly.

There are so many people working here, and they are all gathered here to watch the fun. Bai Ruxue doesn't care, but Zhao Hongmei cares about face.

Li Jianshe seemed not to have heard and was still chatting with the other two educated youths. Now Zhao Hongmei became anxious and ran towards Li Jianshe.

"Li Jianshe, didn't you hear me calling you?" She yelled at the top of her lungs, and the people surrounding her looked at her and almost had difficulty breathing.

"I heard it!" Li Jianshe heard the commotion here early in the morning. Seeing that Comrade Bai Ruxue didn't believe Zhao Hongmei's words, he didn't bother to care.

"Why don't you go over after hearing this?" Zhao Hongmei is now left to lose her temper with Li Jianshe.

She thought that Li Jianshe, who was always kind to everyone and had a cheerful and lively personality, would not let her get off the stage.

Unexpectedly, "Why should I listen to you?" Li Jianshe's understatement made the people around him laugh.

Zhao Hongmei was already crying with anger. She gritted her teeth and asked Li Jianshe:

"Li Jianshe, just tell me that when Zhang Yuan read the letter that day, did you say that he wanted to return to Kyoto to get married?"

Zhao Hongmei was so embarrassed that Liu Lili, who was usually close to her, hid aside and did not dare to come over.

"Comrade Zhao Hongmei! Don't talk nonsense! I was just joking with Comrade Zhang Yuan! We are good buddies, what did you say when I joked with him? Besides, I didn't see Zhang Yuan's letter!

"Li Jianshe said this and finally looked at Bai Ruxue, obviously explaining to her.
