The vegetables grown by the old educated youths in their private plots had been grown for a longer time than those grown by Yi Qingqing and her friends, so there was more to eat.
After a while, the front hall was filled with green peppers, loofahs, cucumbers, green vegetables, and other vegetables commonly eaten in this season.
And Lu Xianjin even generously brought two eggs.
Everyone did not really rely on Li Mengxue alone to provide food. Everyone brought their own rations for one meal.
But it was obvious that no one could eat as much as they wanted on ordinary days. This amount of rations was not enough. Li Mengxue added some, and it was just enough for everyone to have a full meal.
However, thinking that the old educated youths had provided more vegetables, Qian Lailai and Chen Zhihe provided firewood and seasonings, and Zheng Xiaolong and Yun Guyuan also brought two eggs each.
Yi Qingqing was still hesitating about what to take out. The vegetables in her garden had not yet grown, so it seemed that she had to either take meat or salted duck eggs.
The salted duck eggs had just been pickled, and she hadn’t had time to eat them yet.
The main thing was that there were only 50 of them, so even if each person got half an egg, it would be 7 eggs.
She couldn’t bear to give them up because the eggs had to be signed in. If she didn’t sign in after eating it, she would have to pick them up by herself. But chances of picking them up were slim.
As for the meat, although she had a lot of meat, it was a little too much. Wang Lingling, who took the lead, only took a little bacon.
Besides, it was not easy to take out wild boar meat, and it would not look good to take out some of the rabbit and pheasant.
So, she also took two eggs just like Zheng Xiaolong and Yun Guyuan.
It was okay as long as she didn’t stand out and didn’t give people a chance to talk about her. After all, she still had to show off her cooking skills.
Some people definitely took things of high value, and some took things of low value, but everyone did their best to add a little, so they didn’t care.
Of course, the bulk of the things was paid by Li Mengxue and Wang Lingling, who organized the dinner.
The meals were cooked in the front hall, with Zhao Fang, Zhou Qiang, Tang Lan, and Cao Zhendong all contributing their pots and stoves.
The others were responsible for making the mixed flour steamed buns, Yi Qingqing was in charge of cooking, and Yun Guyuan helped her.
She had taught him how to cook in the past, and the two had worked together many times. Today they were going to make home-cooked dishes, which Yun Guyuan had already learned from her.
Comrade Yun’s cooking method was a copy-and-paste version of what Yi Qingqing taught him at that time. It was very precise and meticulous, just like doing an experiment. He strictly followed Yi Qingqing’s steps.
So when Yi Qingqing raised her hand, Yun Guyuan knew what she was going to do next and handed the thing to her.
Yi Qingqing was quite used to it, but others were not.
“Comrade Li Mengxue, is Comrade Yi Qingqing talking about the partner with Comrade Yun Guyuan?” Lu Xianjin asked Li Mengxue.
He sat opposite Li Mengxue, with Zheng Xiaolong on Li Mengxue’s left and Qian Lailai on her right.
Although Li Mengxue knew that the two of them were interested in each other, they had not yet confirmed their relationship, so it was not easy to tell outsiders.
Although she wanted to build a relationship and get to know them, she did not open her heart to them right away.
So, she said, “No, the six of us, Qingqing, Lailai, Xiaolong, Chen Zhihe, and Yun Guyuan, sat together when we went to the countryside and were assigned to the same place, so we are more familiar with each other.”
