Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 The Unjust Species in the True and False Thousand Gold Stories of the 1970s 17  

 Li Wenli could still hold back from getting angry, after all, her family still depended on Feng Qingqing's family, but Zhang Yumei couldn't help it.

  "You guys didn't work today, so why don't you cook a meal?"

  Feng Qingqing: "I'm sorry, I'm so sad, I really didn't expect it."

  Lu Chuan: "Hasn't it always been you and Li Wenli who cooked?"

  Zhang Yumei was so angry that she was shaking. "Are we your family's nannies? We have to work hard in the fields all day and then come back to serve you?

  I have endured it at noon. Now you have been lying down for the whole afternoon and are still waiting for us to come back and cook. I will not serve you anymore. You can do whatever you want."

  Zhang Yumei was really angry. Why should all the work be done by her and Li Wenli?

  It was Li Wenli's business whether she was willing to serve them or not, but she was not willing to do so.

  If she didn't like Lu Ze, she wouldn't be with them, and she wouldn't have always endured and given in to Feng Qingqing.

  She could see that Lu Ze didn't have any such intention towards any of them. He just took care of them a little more for Lu Chuan's sake every time they played together.

  She had always thought that Lu Ze at least had a good impression of her, after all, the five of them were often together.

  Lu Chuan likes Feng Qingqing, and Feng Qingqing doesn't seem to be indifferent. At least she has never seen Feng Qingqing refuse him.

  Although Feng Qingqing sometimes deliberately talked to Lu Ze, she felt that Lu Chuan and Feng Qingqing would become a couple sooner or later.

  Lu Ze knew the relationship between his brother and Feng Qingqing, so it was impossible for him to be with Feng Qingqing.

  As for Li Wenli, everyone just regarded her as Feng Qingqing's follower. After all, they were not from the same circle.

  Lu Ze usually takes good care of her, which makes Zhang Yumei have the illusion that Lu Ze is interested in her.

  She also happened to like Lu Ze and felt that they would definitely be together in the end.

  Because Feng Qingqing always liked to look for Lu Ze, she did not confess her feelings for fear that Feng Qingqing would sabotage them. She wanted to wait until Lu Chuan and Feng Qingqing confirmed their relationship before confirming her relationship with Lu Ze.

  But it was not obvious in the city. She had discovered it in the past few days after going to the countryside. Lu Ze had no interest in her at all, but just took care of her out of habit. Otherwise, he would not put her together with Li Wenli and think that it was her duty to cook and work.

  Zhang Yumei's outburst was something no one had expected. Lu Ze felt that what had happened in just two days was simply overwhelming.

  It's only been two days since I went to the countryside, and so many things have happened. What should I do in the future?

  He, Lu Chuan and Feng Qingqing all don't know how to cook. If Zhang Yumei quits, then Li Wenli will be the only one left. Will she also quit? After all, you don't bully just one person.

  Lu Ze just felt a terrible headache.

  Moreover, he was already hungry after working all day, and his stomach was empty. He wanted to lose his temper, but he had to endure it and appease Zhang Yumei first. At least he had to cook and eat dinner tonight.

  As for the things I brought, I had already eaten them yesterday and this morning and at noon.

  Lu Ze glanced at his brother and Feng Qingqing. Seeing that they didn't seem to think they were wrong at all, he felt that he had a very miserable life.

  After taking a deep breath and calming himself down, Lu Ze said, "Comrade Yumei, they were wrong today, but we still have to eat today.

  But we don't know how to cook either, so you and Li Wenli should cook first, and after we finish eating, we can see how to divide the work later."

  Zhang Yumei sneered, "Don't call me Comrade Yumei. Please call me Comrade Zhang Yumei from now on. You tell me how to distribute the work first. The three of you don't know how to work. It's not my job and Li Wenli's job to distribute the work."

  If he hadn't always called her Yumei, how could she have had the illusion that he liked her?

  Lu Ze: "Okay, Comrade Zhang Yumei, don't be angry. We grew up together. You know what kind of personalities these two have. Can we cook and eat first?

  Let them learn it, or I can learn it, and the remaining person will be responsible for fetching water and firewood. Is that okay with you?"

  Zhang Yumei was also extremely hungry, so she went to cook without saying a word.

  The old educated youth regarded them as a group and had offended them long ago. If she broke up with these people, the old educated youth would not accept her, and she would be isolated and helpless then.

  But she also didn't want to be a nanny. She did it before because of Lu Ze, but now that she knew there was no hope, she naturally had to make a fuss, otherwise she would continue to suffer.

  Why doesn't Feng Qingqing have to do anything? She won't serve anymore.

  Although Lu Chuan and Feng Qingqing didn't think they had done anything wrong, they knew what to do when they saw Zhang Yumei getting angry and didn't say anything. They had known each other for so long, but they had never seen Zhang Yumei get so angry.

  No one was in a good mood. Zhang Yumei and Li Wenli just cooked some porridge and fried some vegetables. Although the people who ate were hungry, they were in a bad mood at the moment and ate absent-mindedly.

  After the meal, Li Wenli cleaned up the kitchen and everyone discussed what to do next.

  Lu Ze spoke first: "I won't say much about the matter, just two questions.

  First, should we continue to live in the educated youth site or rent a house from the production team?

  Second, how will the kitchen work be distributed in the future? "

  Seeing that no one was talking, Lu Ze continued, "My suggestion is that you should still live in the educated youth camp. As for cooking, just do as I said before and split into two groups, with the remaining person responsible for firewood and fetching water."

  Zhang Yumei: "I have no objection. Some people just do nothing and wait for others to serve them."

  Li Wenli: "I have no objection either."

  Feng Qingqing lowered her head and whispered, "I can't cook, collect firewood, or carry water."

  Lu Chuan: "It's okay Qingqing, let's go together, I'll help you."

  Lu Ze: "That's it. Zhang Yumei and Li Wenli will cook one day, Feng Qingqing and Lu Chuan will cook the other day. You guys take turns. I'll be responsible for the firewood and water."

  Speaking of which, the one who suffered the most was Lu Ze, but he had no choice but to do more since he had met an unjust brother.

  Otherwise, the three female colleagues would cook, one for one day, and he and Lu Chuan would be responsible for firewood and fetching water. How easy it would be.

  Zhang Yumei: "Okay, then Feng Qingqing and Lu Chuan will do it tomorrow."

  Then everyone went to rest.

  Whether it was the people at the educated youth site or Xiaoxiao, they all thought that everything would be fine from now on, right?

  After all, we are so busy, who has the time and experience to cause trouble all the time?
