1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

In the educated youth compound, all the old educated youth had returned. One of the thin female educated youths warmly stepped forward and wanted to take the grain from Wen Li's hands.

"Oh, you're finally back! We've been waiting for you to come back for dinner!"

Wen Li stepped aside, "Thank you, I can carry it myself!"

Even though Wen Li's attitude was distant, Niu Zhaodi wasn't embarrassed. "Okay, all our food is in that cabinet in the kitchen. Just make a mark and put it there!"

Wen Li politely replied, "No need, I'll fire alone!"

"What? You're going to fire alone?" Liu Xiu's shrill voice came from the room, followed by a girl rushing out.

Her fierce appearance startled everyone for a moment.

Wen Li remained expressionless. "Yes, my eating habits are a bit different from everyone else's, so I've decided to cook alone!"

"What gives you the right to be treated differently?" Liu Xiu pointed at Wen Li. "You came here wanting to act independently. Are you trying to undermine the unity of the educated youth compound?"

Wen Li hadn't expected that such a small matter would break the old educated youth's defenses. She turned to look at Chen Jiahao, but Chen Jiahao turned his face away and pretended to look at the sky.

Li Hong also kept a straight face and didn't say a word.

Wen Li almost laughed out of anger. The older educated youth were not good at working, so their work points at the end of the year were only enough to make do with half a meal.

A group of well-off new educated youths had finally arrived, and since they hadn't yet gotten any advantage, they certainly didn't want them to start a fire on their own.

These people are shameless.

"Comrade, if I open fire alone, it becomes disrupting the unity of the educated youth compound? What? Are the people in the educated youth compound all robbers? Don't they have any human rights?"

Pan Yong looked displeased. "Hey! What did you say? Who's the robber?"

"Isn't your behavior robbery? What? Is this youth hostage crisis about to become a tyrant, where people aren't even allowed to eat alone?"

Wen Li's words shocked Liu Xiu and Pan Yong, turning them pale.

The others' faces also darkened.

Su Hao originally wanted to step forward to help, but seeing Wen Li's resolute stance, he felt that his worries were somewhat unnecessary. In the end, he stepped behind Wen Li and made his stance clear.

Chen Yan wanted to speak, but couldn't get a word in edgewise. Wen Li could silence them all by herself. To show her stance, she stood behind Wen Li.

The others also came over. They didn't want to help Wen Li. They weren't stupid. This group of old educated youths had obviously their eyes on their food rations. Even if they were to eat together in the future, they had to make their stance clear to avoid being bullied later.

When Chen Jiahao saw that the new educated youths were all standing behind Wen Li, his heart skipped a beat. His original intention was just to give Wen Li a hard time, not to make everyone stand against each other. If the educated youths were at odds and something happened, the brigade leader would be the first to come after him.

Furthermore, if the educated youth are not on good terms, that is not a good thing. The villagers already ostracize them, and if they don't unite, then if something happens to the educated youth in the future, they will be a disorganized mess!

"Liu Xiu, calm down. Wen Zhiqing just wants to start a fire herself, what are you making a scene for?"

As soon as Chen Jiahao spoke, Liu Xiu curled her lip, "You can start the fire yourself if you want, but you have to gather your own firewood from now on, and you can't use our things. The vegetables in the backyard are grown by us, and you can't pick them either!"

Seeing that they had taken a step back, Wen Li's expression softened. "Of course!"

"Alright, alright, everyone must be hungry. We've prepared a welcome feast for you. After you've put your things away, come to the main room for dinner. Wen Zhiqing, come too!"

Chen Jiahao's face lit up with a gentle smile once again.

Wen Li didn't want to make things too awkward, so she nodded in agreement.

Everyone went to collect their luggage and put their things back in their rooms.

Wen Li took a can of yellow peaches out of the bag and walked out of the room.

When the others saw that Wen Li was carrying things, they all went back into their houses and brought out some things as well.

Because of what just happened, Su Hao and Deng Wei were no longer in the mood for jokes. They could clearly see that although the educated youth compound appeared peaceful on the surface, they each had their own little schemes behind the scenes.

Actually, they wanted to cook separately, but unfortunately, apart from Guo Caixia, none of them knew how to cook.

Guo Caixia was not a kind person, and they didn't want to have too much contact with her. They also felt bad about leaving Wen Li to cook alone.

Well, let's just take it one step at a time. It's only the first day anyway, so let's take it slow.

When they arrived, the former educated youth were already waiting.

Because there were many people, the older educated youth put two tables together so that everyone could sit down.

There were three plates on the table: one plate of green beans and eggplant, one plate of stir-fried greens, and one plate of stir-fried eggs with chives. Wen Li, with her sharp eyes, noticed a little bit of yellow egg in the dish; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to tell that it was stir-fried eggs with chives.

Every dish looked like it was boiled in water, making it completely unappetizing.

These dishes are quite a feast; in the past, they would only have one boiled dish.

They were initially a little distressed, but when they saw that the new educated youth had brought their own things, their earlier unhappiness vanished instantly.

Guo Caixia lived in the front yard. She put her things away and came over early. When she saw that everyone had brought their things over, her face turned very ugly.

"Thank you for your hospitality. I brought a can of preserved yellow peaches as a side dish!"

"You're too kind, Wen Qingqing, come and sit down!" Niu Zhaodi smiled as she took the canned food and quickly pulled her to sit next to her.

When Niu Zhaodi saw the dried meat that Chen Yan and Qi Jun had brought, she quickly brought over a plate of it.

Su Hao and Deng Wei both took canned meat, while Yu Shuang took a piece of cured meat.

The male lead, Jiang Chen, also took out a can of yellow peaches.

Once the things they brought were laid out, the empty table instantly looked much better.

"You've been traveling for days and must be tired, so I won't say any more. Let's eat!"

Chen Jiahao originally wanted to say a few words to establish his authority, but seeing so much delicious food, he was in no mood to speak.

He was worried that if he opened his mouth, he would drool.

As soon as Chen Jiahao finished speaking, the old educated youth immediately sprang into action. Wen Li tried to pick up a piece of canned food, but as soon as her chopsticks reached in, there was only an empty bottle left.

The newcomers were dumbfounded by how quickly the veteran educated youth had progressed.

In the end, I could only eat a little bit of green vegetables with the corn porridge until I was half full.

After finishing their meal, they probably realized they were a little embarrassed and didn't let the new educated youth clean up the dishes. Several of the older educated youth took it upon themselves to wash the dishes.

"Although you've just arrived, we still need to agree on the rules first. We usually take turns cooking for a day, but now that there are more people, it's perfect to work in pairs!"

Qi Jun nodded, "Of course, but none of us know how to cook, so we'll need you to teach us!"
