Chapter 66 Who has a problem with his thinking?
In the educated youth camp, Cao Yin supported her heavy body and cooked porridge in the kitchen. The milky white rice flowers in the pot slowly bloomed, emitting bursts of warm fragrance.
After making sure that they were not seriously injured, Ma Hongzhong told them to have a good rest and then left.
Because of their collective poisoning, the brigade decided to let them rest for two days before going to the fields, and also sent someone to deliver them two kilograms of fine rice.
She drank less soup in the morning, so after she recovered a little, she came to the kitchen to make porridge.
Everyone has vomited out all the mushroom soup they drank this morning. Now their stomachs are burning and they urgently need to eat something to fill their stomachs.
What happened in the morning was really scary to think about. She scrubbed the pot in the kitchen several times before she dared to put the rice in.
"The porridge is ready!"
As Cao Yin's shouting died down, people from several rooms came out one after another with lunch boxes, each of them with a pale face. After filling the porridge in the kitchen, the group of people did not bother to go back to the house, but sat on the doorstep, drinking and basking in the sun.
As everyone drank the hot porridge, their faces finally showed some color. After they calmed down a bit, someone finally couldn't hold it in any longer and spoke.
"Are you girls out of your minds when you cook this morning? You dare to give people anything of unknown origin to eat."
"Now that I've harmed everyone like this, are you satisfied?" The thin Sun Ran became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes were red at the end.
He has been in poor health since childhood. Since going to the countryside, every time he is too tired, he can smell a rusty taste in his throat.
He knew in his heart that if this continued, he might not be able to make it back to the city.
He finally got the opportunity to be a brick factory salesman. He prepared day and night for this opportunity, but he didn't expect to fail because of a bowl of mushroom soup!
How could he accept this!
The female educated youth nearby were also unwilling to agree when they heard this, especially the two girls who made breakfast this morning, who couldn't help crying.
"We really didn't mean to do that. Who would have thought there would be poisonous mushrooms in the kitchen!"
As the number of people at the educated youth site increased, the male and female educated youth were assigned different tasks. The male educated youth were responsible for fetching water, chopping firewood, and checking traps on the mountain, while the female educated youth were responsible for the sanitation of the site and cooking.
While Sun Ran's words were supported by some male educated youth, they also caused widespread dissatisfaction among the female educated youth. They had to get up before dawn every morning to cook, and when something went wrong they had to take the blame. Why?
"This was clearly an accident, no one wanted it to happen. Why are you guys blaming us girls? If we didn't cook and clean every day, you would have been living in a pig sty and eating pig food!"
"Exactly. We've all been poisoned, and now we're blaming each other. Is that fun?"
"I think they're discriminating against us. They think women comrades are useless! They have a problem with their thinking!"
The male educated youth nearby, who had originally wanted to keep the peace, became angry after hearing the waves of accusations.
"Don't act like you're the only ones doing the work. Without us, you wouldn't have water or firewood to cook with!"
"Sun Ran is right. You don't even know if the mushrooms are poisonous, yet you dare to let everyone eat them. You are either stupid or poisonous!"
"Why didn't you tell us we had problems when you asked us to help you with the work in the fields? I think you are the ones who are lazy and hate to work. You have a serious problem with your thinking!"
"You guys are going too far! You have no manners at all. A bunch of grown men can't even make things difficult for a woman!"
"Oh, you guys really have double standards. Just now you told us not to discriminate against you and to treat men and women equally, but now you're asking us to give in to you?"
"It seems that what that old lady Wang said this morning was right. You women are really shameless!"
"That's enough! We're all comrades fighting together, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Seeing that the quarrel was getting more and more intense, Xue Yongchang spoke with a dark face.
Xue Yongchang is the captain of the boys' team at the educated youth camp. Although he is a little unhappy about the poisonous mushroom incident that morning, if everyone continues to expose each other's shortcomings like this, there will be no peace at this educated youth camp.
"As long as the Wanyang Brigade brick factory can open, they will definitely need to recruit workers later. If it fails, even if you work in the factory today, you will still have to come back to farm later."
"China is such a big country, and it's fate that we can all queue up in the same place. There's no need to become estranged because of this." Xue Yongchang tried to smooth things over.
"But……"
"Comrades, listen to me. Although today's incident was caused by our girls' negligence when cooking, all of us have been affected. If Chen Hong and the others did it on purpose, would they be able to drink mushroom soup together?" As the captain of the girls' team, Cao Yin quickly spoke up to persuade them.
"I know everyone is angry, but this was really just an accident."
These girls speak without any regard for others' opinions. If they really have a falling out with the male educated youth, they will have their cake and eat it too.
"Captain Cao is right. If they did it on purpose, they definitely wouldn't drink it themselves."
"Yes, this is a poisonous mushroom. If they knew it was poisonous, they would definitely not dare to drink it. Who knows if it would kill them immediately."
"But it was really them who caused us all to be unable to participate in the selection. It was their fault."
……
When Duan Hongzhe pushed the door open, he saw the male and female educated youth confronting each other in the yard.
Oh no, it’s the wrong time to come back!
But in just a moment, Duan Hongzhe adjusted his expression and said in shock: "What's wrong with everyone? Why didn't you go to work?"
Zhang Wan was the first to see Duan Hongzhe at the door and was startled by his disheveled appearance.
"Brother Duan! What's wrong with you?"
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to the door, where they saw Duan Hongzhe in a dishevel, covered in mud. Some parts of his clothes and pants were worn out, revealing his bleeding flesh. Even one of the legs of his glasses had fallen off, hanging on his face in a somewhat funny way.
If Shen Anan was present, she would definitely sigh that Duan Hongzhe was worthy of being the richest man in China in the original book, and he was really bold.
These injuries were obviously caused by rolling down a cliff, which was much more clever than the disguise Wang Pan'er used when she caused her to fall into the water.
Zhang Wan seemed to have forgotten that she was still feeling uncomfortable. She rushed to Duan Hongzhe and helped the limping Duan Hongzhe to sit down on the stone bench in the yard.
"Brother Duan, what happened to you?" Zhang Wan was so anxious that she kept crying. She took out the handkerchief in her arms and was about to wipe his wound, and even wanted to go up and blow on it.
Duan Hongzhe quickly separated Zhang Wan with his hands. Now was not the time to act out a love scene.
"No need, Comrade Zhang, I can handle it myself in a moment. I just wanted to go up the mountain to check for traps this morning, but I missed a step and fell off the cliff. I'm fine."
