Chapter 208 Educated Youth [03](2/3)
Zhou Hong thought Yuan Jia had agreed to what he said, and said happily: "We have four people."
Yuan Jia asked again: "Then how much hot water each of you four wants?"
Zhou Hong thought for a while and replied, "Two buckets of hot water."
Yuan Jia smiled: "One person has two buckets of hot water, four people have eight buckets of hot water. Calculate how much firewood you need to boil in eight buckets of hot water, make sure you can still pay back the eight buckets of water and the firewood you need, and then tell me if I want to borrow hot water."
Zhou Hong looked at him in amazement, unable to believe that he could say such words.
Isn’t it just to borrow some hot water to bathe the four of them? What’s wrong with showing their gentlemanly demeanor? They even asked them to return eight buckets of water and firewood for boiling water.
If they could pick up these eight buckets of water and chop up the firewood that burned these eight buckets of water, they would not have asked him to borrow hot water.
Yuan Jia raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "You shouldn't have the idea of borrowing it for free but not repaying it?"
Zhou Hong was speechless, stomped her feet in hatred, and turned around and rushed out of the kitchen.
After Yuan Jia boiled the water, he took a bucket of hot water to his house to take a comfortable bath, and when he came out to wash his clothes, he heard Wang Qing's familiar and sarcastic voice: "Some people are really stingy, without any kindness, and they can't even lend some hot water to lesbians..."
In the past, Yuan Jia pretended not to hear him and ignored him, the clown, but today Yuan Jia didn't go to him and held a basin of clothes and said to Wang Qing: "If you are willing to borrow eight buckets of hot water for lesbians, then you go, standing here will not hurt your back. The person who carries water and chops wood is not you, you are poor!"
Wang Qing's face changed slightly. He only heard Zhou Hong say that Yuan Jia was stingy and refused to borrow some hot water, but he didn't know that the one she borrowed was actually eight buckets of hot water.
The other male educated youth who heard this thought that behind the eight buckets of hot water meant that they needed to get water from the educated youth point to the well eight times, and they also had to cut a lot of firewood. They were so tired that they couldn't straighten their waists and wanted to take the initiative to show their attention.
Yuan Jia's eyes swept over Wang Qing's green and white face, snorted coldly, and took the wooden basin to wash clothes by the pond before it was dark.
<<<<<<
There are not many people washing clothes at this time, because it is the time for cooking. Yuan Jia boils water, bathes and washes clothes in advance in order to stagger the cooking time with other educated youth.
He came to the stone slab beside the pond, placed the wooden basin by the water, took out the clothes and washed them with soap.
Suddenly he felt someone looking at him behind him. After a glance at him, he found that Lin Xiaoya was actually here with a large basin of dirty clothes.
He pretended not to notice her, afraid that she would feel embarrassed, so he lowered his head and continued to wash his clothes.
Lin Xiaoya stood there hesitated for a while, walked towards him, and shouted softly: "Education Su."
Yuan Jia turned around when he heard the sound, looked at her, and asked in a warm voice: "Is there anything wrong?"
Lin Xiaoya lowered her head and looked at the wooden basin in her hand and said, "Su Zhiqing, thank you today. If you don't mind, I can help you wash your clothes." At this point, her face was as red as the sunset in the sky.
In fact, Lin Xiaoya knew that she shouldn't say such things. There was a difference between men and women. It was nothing for her to help her father and younger brother wash clothes, but if someone knew about it, some rumors would definitely come from.
But looking at Su Zhiqing, who was wearing a clean white shirt and handsome appearance, squatting there and rubbing clothes seriously, Lin Xiaoya really felt that people like him should not do such things here. He should sit in a bright and spacious room, and his slender and clean hands should be holding and pen holders.
Yuan Jia laughed and said, "I know you want to thank me. No, I can wash the clothes myself. I'm embarrassed to bother you."
He lowered his head and continued to wash his clothes. With soap, he naturally washed his clothes quickly and cleanly.
Lin Xiaoya walked to the side with a basin silently and squatted down to start washing clothes. However, her family was poor, so she naturally would not spend money on buying soap. She used wood ash and soap leaves to wash clothes.
Yuan Jia looked at her and noticed that she didn't even have a piece of soap to wash clothes, so she pointed as a knife, cut the big soap in her hand and threw it into her basin.
Lin Xiaoya was shocked by a small piece of soap that suddenly threw over, subconsciously looking at Yuanjia. Yuanjia smiled at her slightly, and her gentle smile dimmed the glow behind her.
"Soap washing is more convenient and clean, and I can't use so much soap alone anyway."
Yuan Jia's clothes had been washed, and he didn't give Lin Xiaoya a chance to return the small piece of soap. He picked up a basin of washed clothes and left.
Lin Xiaoya got up and screamed twice, but she couldn't stop the person. She couldn't throw away a basin of clothes and chased after her, so she had to give up.
However, after Yuan Jia left, when she was washing clothes, she couldn't help but use this small piece of soap to wipe the stains on the clothes. After rubbing it gently, the stains disappeared, which brightened her eyes. Looking at the small piece of soap was filled with curiosity and joy.
This was the first time she used soap to wash clothes. In the past, she was reluctant to buy soap. Perhaps before her father was paralyzed and her mother died of illness, there was soap when the family was in good condition, but at that time she was too young and had no memory.
She only remembers that since she had memories, her mother was lingering in sick bed. Her father worked hard to cure her mother. She was so tired that she accidentally fell into a ditch, broke her leg, and had no money to treat her, so she was paralyzed in bed.
The family is so poor that she naturally has never used soap.
After washing the clothes, Lin Xiaoya struggled to wring the clothes out and put them back into the wooden basin. The piece of soap that had been used was hidden under the clothes.
On the way home with a wooden basin, she felt nervous and nervous whenever she met someone, worried that this person would find out the little secret she was hiding under her clothes, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she returned home.
My younger brother Lin Xiaoyu was feeding the chickens with the earthworms he dug. When he saw his sister coming back, he hurried over and reached out to pick up the wooden basin: "Sister, I'll help you dry clothes."
Lin Xiaoya subconsciously held the wooden basin and avoided Lin Xiaoyu's hand and said, "No need, go feed the chickens, sister, come and dry clothes."
Before drying clothes, she quietly took out the soap from under the clothes, then carefully wrapped the soap with a piece of paper, and hid it in the cabinet in her room.
<<<<<<
Yuan Jia was resting in the middle of his work and went back to the educated youth station to drink some water. He found that before he left the door, he poured a layer of dust on the boiled water that was dried in a large porcelain bowl, which was obviously sprinkled on it. The thermos bottle on the side fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The boiling water stored inside penetrated into the ground, making the color of the floor tiles darker.
He checked the doors and windows with a calm face and found that the window had been pried open, and he could vaguely see footprints that were not wiped clean on the windowsill.
Someone actually sprinkled soil into his cool and white bowl while he was away and deliberately broke his thermos.
You should know that the thermos is very rare at this time. If you want to buy it, you must have an industrial ticket. That is, the Su family has two thermoses to take one to Yuan Jia to the countryside, but it was maliciously broken.
In this case, it is difficult to find evidence to impose sanctions on the culprit, and there is no surveillance. What can the culprit do if he refuses to admit it?
A sneer appeared on Yuan Jia's face, and his spiritual sense swept across the room. The breath of the person who secretly pried open the window and flipped in was still left in the room. His spiritual sense swept it and found it.
"It turned out to be him..."
This person who secretly made a fool is Wang Qing, who has been targeting Yuan Jia. To be honest, Yuan Jia himself doesn’t know how he offended this kid. He can only say that he is naturally excellent, which makes Wang Qing envious and jealous.
This kind of villain who only envys others is not uncommon.
After Yuan Jia found out that he was the culprit, he was not surprised.
He handled the debris and other things in the house, and then left the house as if nothing had happened.
Wang Qing, who had done something wrong, paid special attention to Yuan Jia's reaction. He had thought about how he would show his absenteeism if Yuan Jia made things worse, get rid of his suspicion, and then push Li Yanguo, who had the best relationship with Yuan Jia, as a shield.
Even if Yuan Jia doesn't believe that Li Yan's Congress will do such a thing, he will bury the two of them in their hearts and separate their relationship.
But Wang Qing thought it very carefully, but he didn't expect that Yuan Jia was thrown into a thermos and had no reaction at all, as if nothing had happened.
Wang Qing was a little suspicious. Didn’t he fall Su Yuanjia’s thermos?
This doubt was relieved when he went back tonight and found that his bowl and cup were all broken.
Wang Qing knew that Su Yuanjia was secretly taking revenge on him!
He didn't know how Yuan Jia found out that it was done by himself, but he wouldn't be stupid and silent like Yuan Jia, and he just started to make trouble: "Who deliberately threw my bowl and cup? It's so despicable and shameless. He has the ability to come to me in person!"
Wang Qing stared at Yuan Jia, and his attitude of meaning was obvious.
Other educated youth couldn't help looking at Yuan Jia.
Yuan Jia said lightly: "I just came back and worked all afternoon and never came back halfway."
At noon, Wang Qing also ate with a bowl and drank water with a cup. Obviously, the person who threw his bowl and cup did it in the afternoon, and Yuan Jia did work all the way in the afternoon, and he didn't have a break and ran back. Many people saw it, and there was a certificate of absence.
Wang Qing's face changed. Isn't it Yuan Jia? Who did that?
His suspicious eyes swept across other male educated youth. Among them, Yuan Jia is not the only one who has a bad relationship among the educated youth, while other male educated youth live with him, without even purging the window and prying the door. He can come in and move his things by just opening the door.
How could other male educated youth be willing to be regarded as the target of suspicion? No one was willing to take this charge. This fuss really made a big deal, alarming the captain Lin Aiguo.
After Lin Aiguo asked about the situation, he first excluded Yuan Jia, who had been working in public and had not come back from the suspect, and investigated the situation of other educated youth in the afternoon.
As a result, after investigation, the culprit was not investigated, but instead found out that the educated youth were lazy and unemployed.
This kind of cheating behavior is definitely not advocated. Lin Aiguo criticized them severely. These educated youth who were found lazy naturally held a grudge against Wang Qing who was causing trouble.
If Wang Qing hadn't made the matter a big deal and attracted the team leader to investigate carefully, how could they have been so lazy and experienced and so secretly done?
The matter ended up in vain. The captain Lin Aiguo was unable to find out the results, so he had to warn all the educated youth.
As a result, the next day, Wang Qing bought a new bowl and came back from work. He found that the bowl had been broken again.
Yuan Jia still had sufficient absenteeism, and other educated youths were unhappy to investigate him more vigorously this time.
One of the male educated youth lent his extra bowl to Wang Qing for use.
As a result, after lunch, when Wang Qing was resting in the afternoon, he found that the bowl he borrowed was broken again.
Wang Qing was scared. This time he was paying attention to Yuan Jia's traces and confirmed that Yuan Jia had been working and had not left halfway. There were other educated youth who had not left halfway. So who was the person who broke his bowl?
Wang Qing wanted to find out the situation with the captain Lin Aiguo. He suspected that the person who threw his bowl was not an educated youth, but a villager.
After all, his popularity in the village is second only to Yuanjia, and he is very popular among the girls in the village. Naturally, there are many young men in the village who regard him as their rival for love.
Wang Qing suspected that it was this kind of person who was hostile to him who deliberately retaliated against him.
The captain Lin Aiguo was upset by Wang Qing and still had to check it out. After all, someone could sneak into the educated youth spot today and throw a bowl, and tomorrow it might turn into a thief.
Lin Aiguo was still very responsible. He gathered the villagers and talked about this matter. He first persuaded the culprit to surrender himself. It was just a trivial matter to throw a few bowls. After apologizing, he would just compensate Wang Qing for a few bowls. If it was found out, it would not be so good.
Yuan·The culprit·The first one to be excluded·Jia hid in the crowd and smiled slightly.
I saw a ghost only after I could find out.
Every time he used his spiritual sense to throw off Wang Qing's bowl in front of everyone. Everyone has absenteeism. It is impossible for Wang Qing to find the culprit.
During the investigation, Wang Qing was still smashing bowls every day.
After the breakfast bowl in the morning, it broke when it comes back at noon. After the lunch bowl in the evening, it broke when it comes back at night. After the dinner bowl in the evening, it broke when it goes to bed in the middle of the night.
Wang Qing had already suffered from insomnia. No matter how he did, he could not stand breaking the bowl every day. He held the bowl in his arms and went to sleep. But the next day he woke up and found himself sleeping with the fragments of the bowl.
