After retiring, she went to the countryside and was doted on by rough men

Chapter 27
Zhou Zhengan glanced at the things in their den.

After going back, I asked Lao Liu to make a few pony horses.

Old Liu knows carpentry, and only Old Liu can make this kind of thing.

After seeing off Zhou Zhengan, someone knocked on the door suddenly.

Both Xia Zhi and Liu Zhiyan were a little curious.

In the past two days, they and other educated youths have obviously become very different, and others are unwilling to talk to them. In fact, they don't want to be so close to others.

Someone will come to the door unexpectedly.

Xia Zhi opened the door and saw two female educated youths standing outside.

"Comrade Xiaoxia, have you eaten yet?"

Xia Zhi nodded,
"We just finished eating, what's the matter?"

There are two female educated youths, one is Fang Xiaoya and the other is Li Jinhui.

I live far away, so I should live in a diwozi on the side.

These two female educated youths gave people a relatively good feeling. After all, when the conflict occurred in the past two days, the two didn't know whether they felt that this matter had nothing to do with them and hung up on it, or they felt that they had seen the essence of the problem.

Anyway, the two of them didn't say anything, nor did they make any special expressions.

Even keeping a distance from others is a good habit these days.

"I'm really sorry, the two of us just want to ask where can I buy the mat that Captain Zhou sent to you last time? We also want to buy a mat."

Fang Xiaoya had long been envious of that mat sleeping on those straws, although she was separated by the mattress, but she was always uneasy, and would feel a little straw when she woke up from time to time.

Thinking of the summer solstice and their mats, I feel that this thing is more practical.

The two discussed it and came here specifically to ask questions.

"This mat is not for sale."

Xia Zhi was telling the truth. After all, mats are made from local materials, and almost everyone knows them.

They are educated youths not because they have been here for a short time, but any educated youth who have been here for a long time may be able to weave baskets, mats, benches, and anything else out of reeds.

You can even make up various interesting dolls such as grasshoppers, little rabbits, and little tigers.

Hearing this, Li Jinhui next to her was full of disappointment.

"Comrade Xiaoxia, we can be regarded as like-minded comrades in the future, so don't hide it from us, just tell us which fellow villager you bought the mat from."

The two were afraid that they would not help, and they thought their answer was deliberately making things difficult.

Liu Zhiyan poked her head out from behind, and upon hearing this, a mocking smile appeared on her face.

"It's as if we deliberately made things difficult for you. To tell you the truth, this mat was made by Captain Zhou and his two young comrades. They put reeds from the reed marsh and weaved it. Where do you think we can introduce it to you? "

Xia Zhi knew Liu Zhiyan was showing off as soon as he heard it.

I'm afraid others don't know that Captain Zhou treats them differently.

Sure enough, Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui were completely wilted after hearing this, they didn't have the ability to use Captain Zhou to weave them mats.

Just as the two turned around to leave, they heard Xia Zhi's voice behind them.

"If you really want mats, I can teach you to weave them. In fact, editing is very simple. As long as you cut the materials from the reeds, you can weave them in less than two hours."

The two turned around in surprise and joy.

"Comrade Xiaoxia, is it really possible? Then we thank you, really help us, we need a mat."

Xia Zhi nodded.

"You guys go back to Diwozi first. I'll go find Liu Qianjin. We have to bring gay men with us. Otherwise, no one will protect us. If we encounter wolves on Luwei Road, we will be in trouble."

Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui trembled when they heard the wolf.

"What if we meet a wolf?"

"In the future, remember to prepare two fire sticks behind the door, the kind that is handy.

Even if it's not hunting wolves.

If the nest breaks into other wild animals at the door, it must also have the strength to protect itself.

We can't just wait for the male educated youths to help. If they don't hear, who will we rely on? "

Xia Zhi's words reminded the two of them instantly of the sound from the broken linen at the door of Diwozi last night.

The two nodded hurriedly, it seems that they have to learn to protect themselves, this is the first thing to learn.

The two left, Liu Zhiyan said sullenly from behind.

"Why do you want to help them? You don't know that those educated youths look down on us three."

"Comrade Xiao Liu, you, you have to take a long-term view, we can't live without socializing with others for the rest of our lives.

We live in groups, and if we encounter danger in the future, we really need someone to help.

Besides, we don't live here for one year, two years, maybe ten years, eight years, 20 years, 30 years.

We can't really respect each other as guests, just nodding acquaintances.

We need to gradually break down the distance and barrier between them and us. "

"You and I and Liu Qianjin both need friends."

What Xia Zhi didn't say is that in the future, a lot of labor needs to be carried out in groups. If they really don't have other friends, they will be in trouble at that time.

It's okay to have a little bit of personal ability, but you can't completely stop interacting with others based on your personal ability.

Liu Zhiyan nodded. In fact, she is also a person who is willing to be friends with others.

Otherwise, there would be no entanglement on the first night, but now I think this small group is very good.

It's stable and there's nothing wrong with it.

Xia Zhi has his own ideas, and his brain is good, and his ideas are right. Although Liu Jinjin is not good at brains, he is obedient, strong, and able to do a lot of work, which makes people feel safe.

Although I am a little waste now, I can still provide some material help to the group.

But if Xia Zhi gradually becomes friends with other people, will it reveal many problems in himself.

At that time, Xia Zhi will feel that it will be easier to be friends with others, so don't do anything by yourself.

Xia Zhi didn't know that Liu Zhiyan still had such worries.

I found Liu Qianjin who was next to me, and the two of them set off with a fire stick and a sickle.

They have a sickle here, which was naturally brought by Captain Zhou.

Liu Zhiyan gritted her teeth and followed them with a basket.

"I'll go with you too. Although I can't cut those reeds, I might be able to help pick up duck eggs."

Xia Zhi thought about it, and it is good to have a sense of participation, at least Liu Zhiyan is a good comrade if she is not lazy now.

Such positivity should be encouraged.

"Okay, let's go."

"Maybe you pick up more duck eggs, we can also pickle salted duck eggs."

Hearing the salted duck eggs, Liu Zhiyan swallowed.

"During the summer solstice, would you pickle those oily salted duck eggs?"

A look of longing.

"Yes! Comrade Xiao Liu, you have a lot of food. Who let you live with a culinary master."

Liu Zhiyan immediately showed a dog-legged smile.

Xia Zhi really didn't know that Liu Zhiyan was a foodie in her previous life.

When it comes to eating, it is full of interest.
