Song Yingwan was really busy. She planned to seize the time to revise the remaining manuscript, and then go to the commune to submit it. She also took the time to learn about some current newspapers in the past two days, and selected some good ones, and planned to submit them. Try a few.
She still wanted to go to the commune again to see if she could find some teaching materials. Now that she had a lot of free time, she could arrange her studies. The earlier she started, the more confident she would be.
Originally, she wanted Zhang Ru to find the original owner's previous books, but she thought it would be too time-consuming, and it would take another month to go back and forth, so she might as well go to the commune and try it first!
After Tang Xiaotang came back, he asked her if she was going. As soon as Tang Xiaotang heard this, she remembered the dumplings she had eaten at a state-owned restaurant last time. She was immediately greedy and agreed without any hesitation.
The next day, they got up early and went to the village entrance to wait for the bus. There were not many people going to the commune today, and finally there was no need to crowd around.
After arriving at the commune and paying uncle Lao Gen'er's fare, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative first. I wonder if they came earlier today, but there weren't many people there.
There was no need to rush this time. Song Yingwan took a closer look at the items on sale. There were indeed not many types of goods, and most of them required tickets. The main reason was that daily necessities were consumed quickly, and most of them were in short supply.
Song Yingwan didn't lack anything, so she bought some biscuits and candies. When she saw someone selling rain boots, she thought about it and bought a pair. Last time it rained, she didn't dare to go out because she was afraid of getting her shoes wet. , the rain boots at this time were all the same, no matter the style, Song Yingwan ordered a pair of the smallest size.
Tang Xiaotang bought too much and wanted to buy any snacks she saw. If Song Yingwan hadn't pulled her, the money in her pocket would have been wiped out, and she would have to drink northwest wind for the next half month.
After buying things, she started to get down to business. Song Yingwan took Tang Xiaotang and rummaged through the scrapyard in the commune. She really got it together. Finally, she picked up some recent old newspapers, which cost a total of Less than a dollar.
Tang Xiaotang had said before that he would make progress with Song Yingwan. When he saw Song Yingwan buying books, he naturally couldn't miss it and also found one. Seeing her being so self-conscious, Song Yingwan felt inexplicably relieved that his child knew how to learn.
After finishing the business, Song Yingwan felt relieved. It was almost noon. Thinking of the scene of queuing for dinner last time, she hurriedly went to the state-owned hotel with Tang Xiaotang.
There were not too many people eating this time, not too few, but there was still a queue, but it was not as long as last time. After ordering their meals, they found a place to sit. Song Yingwan also ordered steamed pork with rice for her meal today. The portion of the meal was quite large, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to finish it if she ordered too much.
Tang Xiaotang still ate dumplings, and she had been talking about them since morning.
Not long after she sat down, she heard a call from behind her, "Sister Wan!" Song Yingwan thought she was hearing hallucinations.
When he looked back, he saw that it was Xu Lang. There were words of thanks behind him. It seemed that they had just arrived and had just ordered the food. "Sister Wan, you are also here at the commune. Well, can we sit here? The waiter said there are no empty tables. "Yes." Xu Lang scratched his head and said.
Song Yingwan said, "Okay, there are only two of us anyway. Xiaotang and I will sit together. You can sit over there!"
Xu Lang said with a smile on his face, "Thank you then." After saying that, he waved to the person behind him, "Brother Ci, come on, let's sit here!"
Xie Ci was still ordering food when he heard Xu Lang's shout and looked over, then nodded.
Xie Ci's extraordinary appearance and temperament were already eye-catching. Xu Lang's shout turned everyone's attention to them, and Song Yingwan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
This feeling was even worse when Xie Ci sat down, especially those women who wanted to glue their eyes to Xie Ci.
He was not a talkative person at all. After sitting down, he just nodded to Song Yingwan and Tang Xiaotang. Only Xu Lang was more talkative in the West. Tang Xiaotang had not said a word since they sat down. Song Ying Wan was afraid that no one would answer, so she had no choice but to chat with Xu Lang. Xu Lang did most of the talking, and she responded with a few words from time to time.
But when I remembered that I didn't see them when I got on the bus in the morning, I was a little confused about how they got here, so I asked, "I didn't see you guys on the bus this morning. How did you get here?"
Xu Lang, "Oh, we borrowed the brigade leader's bicycle and rode here."
As soon as Song Yingwan nodded, someone brought their food over. She remembered that the last time she came to eat, they had to go to the counter to serve the food themselves. She didn't expect that the service attitude was so good this time. The reason is self-evident.
Song Yingwan ate it with extremely complicated emotions. Not to mention, it was really delicious. She hadn't eaten white rice since she went to the countryside. Now she felt it was too delicious and she didn't want to talk to Xu Lang. .
After a while, the food for the two of them was also delivered. They ate braised noodles, covered with a thick layer of diced pork, and the aroma overflowed. Song Yingwan suddenly felt that the rice in her bowl was no longer fragrant.
Xie Ci was lowering his head to stir the noodles in the bowl. He seemed to be aware of the gaze from the other side. He couldn't help but look up in confusion. He saw Song Yingwan eating seriously with his head down. He thought it was his imagination, so he lowered his head and ate without thinking too much. stand up.
At this time, Song Yingwan was feeling lucky in her heart. Fortunately, she had averted her gaze in advance. Otherwise, if someone caught her staring at other people's food, she would have been embarrassed and embarrassed!
The boys had to eat faster. They didn't leave even after they finished eating. Although they didn't say anything, Song Yingwan somehow knew that he was waiting for the two of them, so he couldn't help but move faster and stopped chewing slowly.
Xie Ci was sitting opposite her. Seeing her eating in such a hurry, he couldn't help but frown. He was afraid that she would choke.
Although the Westerners left the state-owned hotel together, they separated after leaving. The bicycles they rode were parked in front of the hotel.
Song Yingwan went to the post office with Tang Xiaotang. She planned to send all her manuscripts, and then it was almost time to go back.
When they went back, Xie Ci and Xu Lang hadn't come back yet. Logically speaking, they should ride bicycles together quickly. Song Yingwan didn't bother about this, thinking that they might have something to do.
It wasn't time to get off work yet, and they were the only ones in the educated youth spot. Tang Xiaotang finally had time to rest. He was tired after running around for another day today, and fell asleep soon after lying on the kang. Song Yingwan also Without disturbing her, I took a book I bought today and went to the yard to read it.
Song Yingwan took a mathematics book. She flipped through it and found that the difficulty was okay, but it was a little different from what she had learned. But after all, she also graduated from a prestigious university, so she still had some confidence in this aspect, and planned to make a plan tomorrow. A plan will be more efficient if you follow the plan.
Everyone was eating at noon that day, and suddenly someone called the door outside. Zhang Guoan thought it was the captain, so he quickly put down his bowl and went out to take a look.
After a while, he came in and shouted, "Yang Zhiqing, we are looking for you outside!"
Yang Xue was stunned for a moment, then she responded and went out.
Others are also a little curious. After all, the educated youth here are not related to the locals, and few people can go to the educated youth point to find someone.
Before anyone could think of anything, Yang Xue came in with a big package in her hand.
Yang Xue usually seems difficult to get along with. To put it simply, she is aloof and doting. At first glance, she seems to be pampered by her family. She has not spoken to anyone else for such a long time, so Lin Zhi left with her. Closer.
So although everyone was curious, no one asked.
Yang Xue didn't eat anymore. After carrying the package into their room, she didn't come out. She was probably sorting out the contents of the package. After a while, Lin Zhi also went in.
