Chapter 2197 Cousin is a capitalist lady 23
Wang Ji drove the oxcart to the entrance of the educated youth settlement, calling out, "Xiao Lei, Xiao Lei."

Not long after he finished speaking, a man with wheat-colored skin and a height of about 1.75-1.76 meters ran out from inside.

"Captain, you've arrived." Xiao Lei glanced at the few educated youths beside him and looked at them with a smile. "I'm Xiao Lei, and I'm in charge of the educated youth settlement."

"You can talk to me if you need anything," Xiao Lei said, indicating that you could contact him directly if you had any issues.

"Hello." Everyone greeted each other, and judging from the tone of their conversation with Wang Ji, they knew that their relationship was quite good.

That's true. To become the head of a youth settlement, one must have a good relationship with the village leaders. It's not that you have to have a good relationship with them, but you can't afford to make things awkward.

Xiao Lei called out a few male educated youths to help move their luggage. "There are two types of dormitories here. One is a large communal room. The boys are in the east wing, and the girls are in the west wing. The main room is where we cook and eat."

"The last two rows are individual rooms, each costing one yuan per month."

"The last row has bigger rooms; those are for couples, and each room costs two yuan a month."

In her past life, Zhang Hui would naturally have chosen a single room because she had money, while the original owner of this body would have chosen a dormitory room because she didn't have any money.

As for why Zhang Hui didn't let her stay there, the reason is simple: she's used to resting alone.

"I live alone." Now that I have money, there's no need to be stingy. I was thinking of booking a room, but I was worried that Zhang Hui would say, "What if we share a room?"

The so-called single room doesn't mean that two people can't stay in it, it just might be a bit crowded. It's just that Zhang Hui is used to having a room by herself, and Zhang Yu also wants to have a room by herself.

Normally, she doesn't need to worry about having a special meal at night, but with Zhang Hui around, she really can't have one.

Zhang Hui never intended to stay in a dormitory-style room. She didn't even need to go inside to know how unpleasant it would be. "I also have a room."

“We’ll each have our own room.” Zhao Yadong was quite straightforward; it was best to live separately to avoid future trouble.

Zhan Min knew that Zhang Yu and the others were rich, but she didn't expect that all four of them would want to live in separate houses. As the only new female educated youth, she would have to live alone with the older educated youth.

“How can you live alone? You have no sense of teamwork,” Zhan Min said again.

Zhang Yu then asked Xiao Lei, "Hello, may I ask where you live?"

"I have a single room." Xiao Lei frowned upon hearing Zhan Min's words; this situation was truly a headache.

"Then we'll stay in single rooms," Zhang Yu decided immediately. "And if we need to buy some things?"

Zhang Yu knew that simple items like kang tables could be made by carpenters in the village, but as a newcomer, she naturally didn't know that and had to ask.

Xiao Lei explained everything to Zhang Yu, who wrote it down. "Okay, thank you, Brother Xiao. I also told the village chief that I don't know how to do farm work and I'm not physically strong, so I'll just take the minimum work points."

"I won't eat with everyone then, I'll eat separately." Zhang Yu looked at Zhang Hui, knowing that she would definitely be eating with her, but of course she still wanted to ask.

“I’ll eat with you,” Zhang Hui said quickly. “I’m not good at housework either.”

Xiao Lei knew Zhang Yu was an extrovert from the fact that she took the initiative to communicate with him, but he didn't expect her to be so direct. "Okay, okay."

Qian Hao and Zhang Yu were used to Zhang Yu's straightforwardness, "We also eat separately."

Before they came, they did some research and found out that it was best to eat separately. Although cooking for themselves would be more troublesome, it would at least save them a lot of trouble, unless they encountered a good educated youth.

I only heard Xiao Lei mention before that he also eats separately. Well, even the person in charge of the educated youth settlement eats separately, so why do they insist on eating together? “Eating separately? Do you have a pot?” When Zhan Min heard that even Qian Hao and the other person were eating separately, the expression on her face completely fell.

Based on her observation, among the six educated youths, only she and Guo Bo's families were of average means, so she thought she would bring the Zhang sisters along so that she could eat good food for less money.

But now they're eating separately, that's going too far, it's really too much.

"Oh, it's alright, we brought industrial ration coupons." Zhang Yu knew that they would need to buy pots and pans after arriving here, so she prepared industrial ration coupons.

Ahhh, Zhan Min really didn't expect Zhang Yu to have even prepared this.

Zhang Hui looked at Zhang Yu in surprise, and the latter replied readily, "I prepared the tickets, and you prepare the money for buying the pot. Is there a problem?"

Zhang Hui shook her head, "Okay."

Zhan Min was so angry that she left immediately. She didn't want to stay any longer, or she would really be driven crazy by them.

Zhao Yadong glanced at Qian Hao and said, "We just found out that we're going to eat separately, so what should we do with the pot?"

"Oh no, what do we do?" Zhao Yadong panicked. Although he had made some money doing small business with Qian Hao before, he never expected that he would need industrial tickets here.

“I brought it,” Qian Hao said calmly.

Wow, Zhao Yadong was quite surprised. "Dude, we still need you. You've really prepared everything. Impressive."

Zhang Yu also heard that they had tickets, and asked, "Shall we go shopping together tomorrow?"

“Okay, but shall we walk?” Qian Hao remembered that the village chief had mentioned that the oxen had worked hard and they shouldn’t be tired.

"I just found out, the village is going to the commune tomorrow." Zhang Yu had just chatted with Wang Ji, so she knew a little about the situation.

Oh, oh, oh, Zhao Yadong's stomach had been protesting for a while. He knew that Zhang Yu would chat with the village chief along the way, but he didn't pay attention to what they talked about. However, he didn't expect her to ask about this.

"Can we ride in an oxcart tomorrow?" Although the oxcart isn't fast, at least they won't have to walk.

Zhang Yu nodded, "Of course we can. I also asked, and if we can't buy any at the commune tomorrow, we can take a bus from the main road at the village entrance to the city the day after tomorrow. We'll arrive in the city around noon, and then a bus will come to the commune around 1 p.m.

If I can't buy an iron wok tomorrow, I can go to the city to buy one early the day after tomorrow.

Wow, Zhao Yadong was surprised that Zhang Yu had even found out this. "Impressive."

Xiao Lei was also quite surprised. He knew that Zhang Yu was good at chatting with people, but he didn't expect that she would chat so well with the village chief. They only found out about this information half a month after they arrived. It was really impressive that Zhang Yu found out so quickly.

"Aren't we going to work the day after tomorrow?" Zhang Hui noticed the admiring looks Xiao Lei and the others were giving Zhang Yu, which annoyed her.

"She's just a maid, what's so admirable about her?" she interrupted unhappily.

"I'm asking for leave because I haven't set up the equipment properly. Besides, I've already said I'll take the lowest work points. In other words, I'm fine even if I don't work at all." Zhang Yu indicated that she was already grateful to be able to work, so she didn't mind.

Qian Hao and the others knew that Zhang Yu had talked to the village chief about the work assignments, but they didn't expect her to understand it this way. Amazing, really amazing.

When Zhao Yadong heard Zhang Yu say this, his eyes lit up. Yes, this also applies to him. He needed to think about this carefully.
