Chapter 123 Snatching People from Their Doorstep
The three exchanged glances before turning their attention back to Liu Qingyu.

"When she was in the dormitory, she would look in the mirror all the time and smile in a sinister way."

I heard it's quite scary!

She herself did not witness this situation.

I heard it from her roommates, and because it happened more than once or twice, I made a note of it.

"Oh no, has she gone mad?"

Huang Chunjing was outspoken and always felt that this was something abnormal about her.

"I think he's probably holding back a good thing."

Yang Leyu's words reminded everyone of what had been said before, suggesting that this person was probably already planning something.

Zhao Baogang had already started speaking, so they followed him.

Today, the grain is being distributed in half, ensuring that everyone has enough to eat.

The reason for distributing food again at the end of the year is to prevent some people from eating all the food.

Or, they might have exchanged it for money.

If this situation were to occur, the pressure on the team would be much greater.

We couldn't just watch everyone starve to death, so people started to "borrow" grain from the production team.

I'll pay it back when I have the money.

However, the team's food reserves were also limited.

One or two is fine, but if there are more people, we won't be able to provide enough.

Ji Shuyin didn't care; she didn't have many work points anyway, so it didn't matter how they were distributed.

The other educated youth shared the same idea.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Baogang, as the brigade leader, was really quite lenient with these educated youth.

They are not required to do anything specific, such as working every day.

At least they are quite free, and she is content with that.

This time, the grain was distributed according to work points, from highest to lowest, and everyone received a different amount of grain.

You can choose refined grains or whole grains, in a ratio of one to ten.

Most people would choose whole grains because they can eat more of them.

However, they would also order a few pounds of refined grains to improve the family's diet.

She had planned ahead; everything had to be made from whole grains.

Next year, she plans to raise a few chicks.

Then it will be much more convenient to eat eggs.

There's a policy here that allows a household to raise three chickens.

She now lives alone, so she can be considered an independent household.

Huang Chunjing and the others wanted fine grains to keep for themselves.

The accountant read out everyone's work points and corresponding grain quantities, and then everyone could line up to collect their grain.

The others were at the back of the line, and because they had fewer work points, they weren't moving as fast.

It wasn't until the afternoon that we arrived at this point.

No one went back for lunch, afraid of missing it.

There were a total of 160 work points, which were divided into 60 jin of coarse grains. Ji Shuyin chose corn.

Luckily, I often drink the spring water from the space, and now I'm much stronger.

Just as I was about to lift it up, a hand reached out.

Jiang Shi'an was even faster, carrying it directly on his shoulder.

"Let's go, I'll take you back."

"You're supposed to help distribute the grain, but I can do it myself. Give it to me."

She tried to reach for it, but the other person nimbly dodged her.

"Don't be stubborn. I've already spoken to the accountant. It's fine."

I'll take it back to you and then come back.

Well, she wasn't just putting on a brave face; she really could do it.

Seeing this, Huang Chunjing, who was standing nearby, also offered a word of advice.

"Shuyin, just let him take it back to you, it's so heavy."

She wanted refined grains, but there were only a few pounds of them in total, so she took them home. "Let's go."

Jiang Shi'an was very fast and had already moved forward.

Not daring to waste their time, she waved to the other women and followed.

"Jiang Shi'an, I'll cook some dinner tonight. Come and get it when you get back."

Upon hearing this, the man's lips curled up slightly.

"That's great. By the time they finish over there, it'll probably be quite late."

Yes, even if it's just to let him take it back to eat.

Even if it's just to avoid owing him a favor, this is acceptable.

Jiang Shi'an delivered the corn, but didn't linger. He was going to help distribute the grain.

That's hard work, and all the able-bodied young men in the team are there.

"You shouldn't go out today. It's crowded and chaotic."

Ji Shuyin nodded, which was taken as agreement.

After everyone left, she didn't rest. She put the corn away and then went to cook.

I haven't eaten yet; I need to solve the problem of food and clothing first.

In a few days, the days will be shorter, and everyone will eat two meals a day.

Not now, at least three meals a day are still needed.

I steamed white rice, stir-fried some cabbage with vinegar, and steamed two egg custards separately.

When the time comes, just leave one for the other party.

After dinner, it was getting late, and Jiang Shi'an still hadn't returned.

According to what they just said, after they've distributed all the food to the team members, they'll still need to do a tally, and it'll probably be dark by the time they get back.

However, they were given a white flour bun each at noon, which was provided free of charge by the team, so it was a little better.

She didn't do anything else, just sat in the chair, listlessly looking at a book.

That's when the door was knocked on.

"Open the door, Ji Shuyin, I know you're inside, open the door quickly."

The tone of his voice clearly indicated that he was up to no good.

Didn't you say your legs were terribly swollen? Why did you come here?
"Ji Shuyin, open the door! What are you pretending to be if you're hiding inside?"

Don't you hate me?
"Let's settle the accounts today, come out here!"

She had already reached the door and was about to reach out to pull it open when she suddenly sensed something was wrong.

This person seemed to be deliberately provoking her. Thinking of Chen Baosheng, she immediately withdrew her hand.

"If you're sick, go get treatment. What are you doing causing trouble in my house?"

You are not welcome here. If you feel wronged, go find the brigade leader.

After saying that, he took a stick and used it to block the wooden door.

This door isn't very sturdy; it's just made of wooden planks bound together.

If it were a grown man, he would have kicked him away with two kicks.

It wasn't that she deliberately made it bad; most of the team members' homes have this setup.

Some were even simpler, just bound together with firewood.

There wasn't a single iron gate in the entire team.

This was made by Jiang Shi'an and a few others after she moved in!

The door was being pounded on loudly; Tang Weiyu was becoming somewhat deranged.

"Get out here! Why should I go to the captain?"

You cheated me out of my money and refused to give me a job; now you have to pay it all back.

The more she talked, the angrier she became, and the more force she used.

Ji Shuyin also stood on tiptoe, wanting to see what was happening outside.

Tang Weiyu suddenly stopped and started speaking in a sarcastic tone.

"Fine, if you won't open the door, then don't blame me."

superior……"

"Oh no!" she thought to herself, and turned to run back into the house.

Sure enough, the next second, someone started kicking the door, and someone even jumped over the wall to get in.
