Chapter 139 Li Mu’s jealousy
"Why are you so diligent? You will soon go to work in the county."
Chen Zixuan really doesn’t understand Li Jie.
Everything seems to be overthinking, but it is precisely because of this that everything is done in a measured way.
"Hey, you will always come back. It's not like you won't come back, right?"
Chen Zixuan thought for a moment and nodded. It was indeed the case. He was also planning to make more things for the winter.
Especially in winter, the roads are icy and the shuttle buses don’t run anymore because we are worried about safety issues.
He also thought that after it started to snow, he would not go to work, otherwise he would be too tired after running for three days.
"That's right, you have to burn a lot of firewood in winter, especially when the firewood on the mountains is wet in winter, so you still have to prepare it in advance."
Taking out three steamed buns, Chen Zixuan broke them in the middle and opened the strawberry jam.
"What is this?"
Looking at this red thing, I don’t know what it is, but I smell a fruity fragrance, which is very strong.
"Strawberry jam, go wash a spoon and take a spoonful to eat with the steamed buns. It's really good."
Li Jie quickly accepted Chen Zixuan's proposal, went straight to wash a spoon and handed it to Chen Zixuan.
He took a spoon and spread it in the middle of the steamed buns, and put it in Li Jie's hand. Li Jie looked at the steamed buns and then at Chen Zixuan.
"Hurry up and try it and see how it goes."
Li Jie picked it up, took a bite, and his eyes lit up. This was his first time eating steamed buns with fillings, and they were particularly delicious.
He had never seen it before, let alone eaten it. A steamed bun the size of a fist was finished in three bites.
It just so happens that Li Jie hasn't had lunch yet.
The other educated youths had already eaten. Li Jie was just going to eat something else to fill his stomach. He didn't expect that Chen Zixuan would come over and there would be steamed buns to eat.
"It's delicious. There's also this green one. Try it. I don't know if you can accept the taste of moxa leaves."
The taste of moxa leaves is a bit special, some people can accept it, but some people can't.
“It’s okay, but it tastes weird.”
Li Jie is used to telling the truth, but this is made of white flour, no matter how weird it tastes, you have to eat it, so you can't waste it.
Li Jie, who was eating, didn't seem to notice Li Mu on the kang at all. Even if Chen Zixuan did, it was a steamed bun, so he didn't take much and only gave it to Li Jie.
Other people he doesn't know well don't give it to him at all. He is reluctant to give food randomly and the relationship is not good, so why should it be given to him?
Li Mu looked at the steamed buns filled with strawberry jam from the side and swallowed with greed. Seeing their expressions of enjoyment, he felt jealous or jealous.
Why are we all educated youths who went to the countryside together? Why are everyone living so well? Even they have to go to the county to work, but they are working in the fields without any progress.
What he ate was rice bran coarse grains. He had almost never eaten fine grains or meat. He ate it once when he helped Chen Zixuan get his own land. He always remembered the taste.
After thinking for a moment, Li Mu came over.
Seeing as they have a good relationship with Chen Zixuan, they all eat meat. Even if they don’t have meat, they can still drink soup together.
"Chen Zhiqing, do you have enough recruitment quota in your county? Can you sell one to me? One hundred yuan, is that okay?"
He doesn't have a hundred dollars on him now.
But if this spot is willing to be given to him, he can ask his parents to send him a hundred yuan from his hometown. He still has more than forty yuan, which is just over half.
Li Mu has only one son and one sister in his family.
His parents will definitely send it over if they find out.
After making up his mind, Li Mu's face was full of smiles, and he wanted to curry favor with Chen Zixuan.
But Chen Zixuan's three quotas have been allocated, and they can never be taken back.
Even Chen Zixuan cannot do such a thing.
Chen Zixuan shook his head directly. He still had one hundred yuan, but he couldn't lose his bottom line just for one hundred yuan.
But if there is no money, many people may lose their bottom line for this huge sum of money.
So many people believe that money is the root of all evil.
"No, Li Mu educated youth, my three quotas are no longer available, wait until next time, I will inform you again."
Anyway, I don’t know when the next time will be. Chen Zixuan thought about it and postponed it if possible.
He couldn't really ask for a job and then sell it to Li Mu. What would the factory think of him?
Chen Zixuan couldn't do this kind of thing, but he didn't want Li Muji to hate him, so he just said it next time.
In this case, Li Mu has no choice.
He thought that Chen Zixuan would give Xie Yang's job to him for a hundred dollars, so that not only would he have a job, but he could also drive a wedge between Chen Zixuan and Xie Yang.
He had no idea that the relationship between Chen Zixuan and Xie Yang had almost broken down. Xie Yang was really too eager for quick success.
Chen Zixuan doesn't really like people with this kind of personality.
"Li Jie, then you get up early tomorrow, and then you talk to Xie Yang and Zhang Wanqing, and I will go back first."
Chen Zixuan didn't want to make another trip over there, since Li Jie was relatively close to them anyway.
"Okay, Zixuan, thank you for today."
After leaving the house.
Chen Zixuan did not see the malice in Li Mu's eyes.
Even if I knew, I wouldn't blame him.
Li Mu also walked out after a while, took a look outside, and walked toward the village as if he had made up his mind.
Chen Zixuan, who was growing potatoes on his own land, suddenly sneezed.
Ah owe——
He bought five kilograms of potatoes last time and found that each one had sprouted. He simply took out a knife and cut them into pieces, then put them in a bucket and soaked them in well water.
By now, the potatoes have completely sprouted and grown leaves. I quickly planted the potatoes and put a piece of potato into the hole.
Chen Zixuan has finally thought it through.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes can be made into powder, especially into vermicelli. I don’t know how delicious it is.
And it’s still not for sale now, so you have to make it yourself, and now you don’t know where to spend a lot of your money.
Of the four major items everyone mentioned, Chen Zixuan has already bought a bicycle and a watch. He doesn’t like sewing machines and radios very much.
It would be nice if there were refrigerators and washing machines at this time, but he remembered that they hadn't been invented yet, so he couldn't remember much. Anyway, he hadn't seen them in the town or county.
Moreover, there is no electricity in the village now, let alone large appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines.
Many things have not yet appeared, and now most of them eat more. After all, everyone now mainly pursues food and clothing, and it is not yet time to pursue pleasure.
Our economy has not yet been able to keep up with the moderately prosperous society, and we have not yet solved the problem of food and clothing. How can we think so much.
Patiently planting the potatoes, Chen Zixuan watered them, and then took out the peppers in his space.
This was something he bought cheaply in town last time. He bought ten kilograms for fifty cents, and they were all millet peppers.
There is also a big bag of garlic cloves.
I happened to buy some pork belly in town today and came back, and there was only a little left, not much, probably only about half a catty.
