Chapter 34 Delicate Shoulders

Fang Xiaoya, who followed behind her, handed over her lunch box.

The chef glanced at Fang Xiaoya, scooped up a large spoonful of vegetables with a big spoon and poured it into the lunch box.

"See, why do they eat so much? They earn it with their own labor.

You really think you can go back after having a meal at the construction site. That's a beautiful thought."

Zhao Hong's face flushed, and she turned around and left with the lunch box.

Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui sat in front of Xia Zhi and Liu Qianjin with their lunch boxes.

The two looked at the sumptuous meal.

They said thank you with some gratitude.

"What are you thanking me for? We all came together.

Anyway, you should have a correct attitude. Although the conditions are indeed not good, this is our own choice.

The food supply has been transferred here, and it is absolutely impossible to go back.

Just think about it, you can eat white flour buns here every day, and you can have a full stomach, which is at least better than being hungry at home."

Fang Xiaoya nodded.

"Indeed, although we eat rationed food, we also eat coarse grains every day.

White flour is hard to get, and even if we have it, it is given to our brothers and sisters at home."

"Now we can finally have a full stomach. It is a bit tiring, but the tiredness is worth it."

Li Jinhui also agreed with this.

"My father is the only one in my family who eats rationed food. My mother and I, together, eat my father's food. The three of us in the family have to tighten our belts.

But now you can eat white steamed buns every meal, I am satisfied."

Li Jinhui did not say that she had a grand goal. If she could earn more work points and exchange them for food.

Sending it home can also relieve her parents' tension.

"I am also satisfied. I can have a full meal every meal, and I can also eat big white steamed buns and big fat meat. My mother is right. It is indeed better to go out than at home."

Liu Qianjin ate with big mouthfuls and did not forget to show that his choice was right.

The three people laughed at Liu Qianjin.

Liu Qianjin touched his hair with laughter.

"What are you laughing at? Isn't what my mother said wrong? It's better outside than at home."

"Your mother is right, so you work hard, and I guarantee that you will have enough food every day in the future."

Xia Zhi felt sorry for Liu Qianjin. Liu Qianjin's IQ could only be understood as his parents doing it for his own good.

But he didn't know that his parents gave up on him as a helpless choice.

When working in the afternoon, the other four female educated youths obviously accepted the lesson in the morning, and they were no longer as lazy as they were in the morning.

However, the four people obviously had complaints about the four of them, and they were clearly divided.

Not only did they ignore them when they were working.

They also avoided them when they saw them walking.

As if they were plague gods.

Xia Zhi didn't care. Liu Qianjin was completely a child and didn't care about other people's faces.

Instead, Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, these female educated youths talked and laughed with them at the beginning, and everyone was considered friends for a few days.

I didn't expect that such a small matter would cause such a big fuss.

After finishing work in the evening, everyone took the truck back.

Unlike when they came, Xia Zhi, Liu Qianjin, Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui had become friends with Guixiang's group when they returned.

At this moment, they did not separate themselves from others, but sat among these sisters-in-law and talked and laughed.

The other four female educated youths were obviously huddled together, and they stayed far away from this group.

They stared at Xia Zhi with resentful eyes from time to time. Obviously, they did not hate Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui much, but instead blamed all the mistakes on Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi received this look, but did not take it seriously.

You can't just do nothing because of other people's eyes.

Back in the dugout, Liu Zhiyan actually prepared dinner for them with one hand.

Although they just made a simple pot of dumpling soup, at least there was a ready-made hot meal when they entered the house.

Moreover, this incident shows that human potential is unlimited. Liu Zhiyan has been hanging her arm for the past two days. She looks like she can't do anything and is very weak.

But she can cook today, which proves that she can do anything.

Seeing Xia Zhi, who was covered in dust, walk into the cave and couldn't even lift his feet, Liu Zhiyan hurriedly pointed to the basin.

"I have mixed warm water. Wash your face quickly and prepare for dinner."

Just looking at Xia Zhi's appearance, he almost couldn't see anyone.

Xia Zhi washed his face.

The conditions here are absolutely impossible to take a bath.

Hearing Liu Zhiyan's words, he smiled bitterly.

"You have escaped, but you will be the same as me in a month."

Liu Zhiyan patted Xia Zhi's shoulder from behind.

"I'm lucky. I can hide for another month."

But Xia Zhi groaned in pain.

"Oh!"

Liu Zhiyan jumped away in shock.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Are you hurt?"

Xia Zhi frowned, and his facial features were twisted together.

Although she had done all these jobs in her previous life, her body was still very delicate in this life.

After carrying stones all day, I'm afraid her shoulders have blisters.

Liu Zhiyan helped Xia Zhi take off his outer clothes and cotton jacket. The autumn clothes inside were already oozing blood.

Seeing that Xia Zhi's right shoulder was almost blurred by blood, Liu Zhiyan was so scared that tears fell.

"How could this happen? Didn't you go to repair the road today? How did your shoulders get like this?"

Xia Zhi himself couldn't see the blisters on his shoulders.

But he could guess that the blisters must have been rubbed by the shoulder pole.

"Don't cry, crying is useless. Find a needle from the sewing box, burn the needle tip on the fire, and help me prick the remaining blisters and squeeze out the blood.

Otherwise it will hurt more tomorrow."

Xia Zhi knew that there would be blisters on the shoulders the first time, and when they worked for a long time in the future, they would gradually form calluses and the shoulders would not be so easily injured.

There are no good medical methods now.

They don't even have disinfectants here.

After hearing this, Liu Zhiyan hurriedly rummaged through the two people's bags and finally found the needle and thread.

This was Zhou Zhengan's gift when Xia Zhi brought the bedding from Zhou Zhengan.

Liu Zhiyan burned the needle on the fire and looked at the two pigeon egg-sized blisters and couldn't do it.

She started crying in the back.

"Xia Zhi, no, I really can't do it."

Xia Zhi sighed and turned sideways to face the mirror.

The problem was that the distance was a bit awkward, and she couldn't prick the blood blister with a needle.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Xia Zhi, are you back? I'm Zhou Zhengan."

Xia Zhi hurriedly pulled her autumn clothes to her chest.

"Zhou Zhengan, don't come in yet."

Liu Zhiyan opened the door of the dugout a crack and stuck her head out.
