"Well... we only have half a fish for each of us for dinner today, so let's make do with it." Ning Yuan hesitated for a while, but reluctantly cut off half of the fish, put it in a bowl and handed it to him.
Originally, everyone didn't have much rations, so she went to the fishing spots secretly.
Rong Zhaonan did not take the fish, but said calmly: "I'm not hungry, you can eat it."
After saying that, he turned around and went into the house.
Ning Yuan was stunned and chased after her with a bowl: "You have been working all day, how can you not be hungry!"
As she said that, she put the bowl on the table: "There is no need to let me. We have agreed that during the two years we have been a fake couple, you will help me and I will help you to tide over the difficulties together. We are partners."
Rong Zhaonan looked at her slender back, and then at the fish in the bowl, with an indescribable light flashing in his cold eyes.
A partner...it seems like she is supporting herself.
He sat down and ate the fish slowly.
dark night
After taking a shower, she coughed lightly at Rong Zhaonan: "You go to bed first, and I will read and review."
She was really not used to sleeping with strange men.
Rong Zhaonan wiped his hair in disbelief as he watched Ning Yuan sit down at the old desk she had found.
Then, she took out a notebook and an old Chinese language book from the drawer.
Start copying words from high school Chinese and review previous texts.
Ning Yuan knew very well that in her previous life, her education was too low, and her marriage, employment, and horizons were all looked down upon by others.
When she restarts her life, she has to fight no matter what.
At first, it was just to relieve the awkwardness of sharing a room and sharing a bed with a near-stranger man.
But copying, copying, Ning Yuan became immersed in it.
By the time she felt her wrists were tired from copying, she had already copied less than half of the words in the book to be tested.
Ning Yuan stretched her body and looked at the two candles that had been replaced and the third candle that was almost burned out. She was shocked to realize that she had been studying for a long time.
When she was an educated youth, several people lived together and they were always noisy and gossiping, and she had no time to read.
But now, her learning efficiency has improved surprisingly.
Ning Yuan read for half the night, and when Rong Zhaonan fell asleep, she climbed into bed tired and hungry.
After a busy day, she was woken up from hunger in the middle of the night by cooing.
"I'm starving..." She touched her belly, sat up in a daze, and decided to drink some water to fill her stomach.
But as soon as she got out of bed, Ning Yuan felt something was wrong.
She turned her head suddenly and found that the bed next door was empty!
Rong Zhaonan is missing? !
When she thought about this man passing by her silently without any reaction, Ning Yuan was startled and woke up instantly.
The cowshed was not big, and Ning Yuan could see at a glance that there was no one in the room.
She thought about it, put on her shoes a little uneasily, and walked carefully outside the house.
"Doctor Rong...Rong Zhaonan?" She shouted softly as she left the room.
It was dark outside, with only the dim moon hanging in the sky, Ning Yuan searched around.
There was no one in the toilet, and there was no one in the cowshed. The door was still locked, and it didn't look like someone was going out. It was not known where Rong Zhaonan went out.
It was dark everywhere, and Ning Yuan felt a little scared. She quickly went back to the room and locked the door. She simply took out the biscuit box and absentmindedly stuffed a biscuit into her mouth.
Strange, where can Rong Zhaonan go?
He is a decentralized reformer. Usually, unless he works in the fields, he cleans and raises cattle in the cowshed, or he has to study intensively at night.
These past few days were because he was 'married' to her, so the village party secretary allowed him not to study or write examinations.
But he disappeared in the middle of the night. What did he do? Is he usually like this?
Ning Yuan sat by the bed, thinking about things, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
until……
"Ning Yuan, Ning Yuan, wake up..." The man's cold and slightly hoarse voice sounded.
Ning Yuan was startled and sat up suddenly.
It's Rong Zhaonan, he's back!
Then, she met a pair of cold, narrow eyes, looking down at her with deep eyes.
The tip of her round nose just "rubbed" against the tip of his tall nose, and her lips almost touched his.
"Ah -" She subconsciously pushed him and shrank back.
But she forgot that she was sleeping on the outside. The next moment, she found that her butt was hanging in the air, and then she fell upside down under the bed.
Rong Zhaonan had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her back: "Be careful."
Ning Yuan was saved from the fate of being thrown into pieces early in the morning, but she was directly pulled into his arms.
The man's broad chest was pressed against Ning Yuan's face, and she could even feel the ripples of his muscles. The warm touch on his face made her blush instantly.
Rong Zhaonan quickly let go of her and looked down at the blushing Ning Yuan: "Are you scared? I think it's time to get to work."
Ning Yuan hurriedly got up and coughed: "It's okay, cough cough..."
When did this person crawl over her and return to the inside of the bed to sleep?
Ning Yuan quickly got up to wash up and asked calmly: "You didn't eat enough yesterday. Will you wake up hungry tonight?"
Rong Zhaonan changed his clothes, put some rice and sweet potatoes in a pot to cook porridge, and said lightly: "If you get used to it, you won't wake up hungry. Our rations are less than yours."
Ning Yuan paused while brushing her teeth. Of course she knew that materials were scarce and no one had enough to eat. Reformed elements like Rong Zhaonan had even less food than they did.
She was a little embarrassed and said no more.
It seemed that Rong Zhaonan had no intention of letting her know why he disappeared in the middle of the night.
After eating the cooked sweet potato porridge, the two of them went to work separately.
As soon as Ning Yuan arrived in the field carrying water, she heard Huang Xuehong's strange voice behind her: "Oh, who is this? Isn't this our educated youth Ning, who is finally willing to come out of the cowshed?"
Ning Yuan turned around and saw Huang Xuehong, Tang Zhenzhen, and Qin Xiaoxia walking over carrying hoes.
She was too lazy to pay attention to them and turned around to carry water to leave.
Tang Zhenzhen suffered a big loss at her hands. How could she not hold grudges? She rolled her eyes and sneered at Huang Xuehong and said: "Who knew, I could crawl into the bed of a bad person before marriage. Now that I'm married, I'm afraid I won't be able to do so anymore." Bed, shameless..."
"Wow!" Ning Yuan suddenly put down the pole, picked up the bucket with her backhand, and poured it towards Tang Zhenzhen's shop owners.
Tang Zhenzhen screamed and scattered, but some of them were inevitably splashed!
"What are you doing!" Tang Zhenzhen was splashed with water, screaming and staring at Ning Yuan angrily.
Ning Yuan clapped her hands and smiled: "Ah, I'm sorry, I just saw how dirty your mouths are, so I wanted to help you wash them. Don't thank me too much!"
After losing money and people, Tang Zhenzhen originally hated Ning Yuan so much that Ning Yuan still poured water on her.
She was so angry that she was shaking all over, and with Huang Xuehong in tow, she was about to rush over and grab Ning Yuan's hair: "I'll beat you for this shamelessness!"
"I'm afraid of you!" Ning Yuan didn't have the same personality as in her previous life, so she held up the carrying pole and faced them.
But the next moment, Hua Zi quickly led someone to stop them: "What are you female educated youths doing? You can't fight!"
Several other male educated youths also rushed over to help separate the girls who were torn together.
Seeing that she was in trouble, Tang Zhenzhen turned red-eyed and pointed at Ning Yuan and shouted angrily: "As soon as she got married to a bad element, her thoughts deteriorated. She didn't work every two days for three days. She didn't have enough work points at the end of the year. We, the educated youth team, had to give her equal shares of food." , why!”
As soon as he said this, several other male educated youths also looked at each other. This is the truth.
Wang Jianhua broke his head and was still lying down unable to work. Now that Ning Yuan is not working, her work points are even less.
At the end of the year, the grain will be divided according to the work points of the team. Those who work more will suffer more.
"Yeah, that's not fair."
"Isn't Ning Yuan married? I think Sister Manhua's married educated youth work points are counted as being in the village team, not the educated youth team."
As a result, several male educated youths also agreed.
Ning Yuan understood that she was waiting for her here.
She simply looked at Hua Zi: "Brother Hua Zi, I'm married now, and my registered residence is in our village. I wonder if I can join them as an educated youth team. I won't take advantage of them."
Huazi looked at Ning Yuan's insistence and hesitated: "When the time comes, you can apply to our team, and your work points this year will be recorded in our village team?"
In the village team, work points are calculated on a family-by-household basis. Ning Yuan and Rong Zhaonan are considered to be one household after they get married.
Educated youths are provided with policy support and are considered to be in the higher bracket, while decentralized elements like Rong Zhaonan are considered to be in the lowest bracket with work points.
Therefore, Ning Yuan was at a huge loss, as she had to pay a lot less for food at the end of the year.
Seeing that her goal of driving Ning Yuan out of the educated youth team was achieved, Tang Zhenzhen sneered and left with Huang Xuehong and others.
