"Cheer up, everyone! The educated youth settlement is just ahead. You can rest today and tomorrow, and start work the day after tomorrow. I'll arrange for someone to deliver grain to you later. When new educated youth come to us, the brigade will lend you fifty catties of coarse grain, which should be enough for two or three months. It's spring planting season now, and the grain won't be distributed until the end of the year. After you finish eating, you can use the work points you've earned in the last two or three months to exchange for grain at the brigade leader's house, and then register at the brigade. Or you can exchange for grain at the brigade headquarters. However, our brigade only has coarse grain left now. If you don't like it, you'll have to exchange for fine grain yourself."

The brigade leader walked ahead, explaining in advance the food problem that the new educated youth would soon face, so that they wouldn't be left without food if they didn't work, which would cause a lot of trouble later.

"Okay, thank you, Captain."

Sparse, weak voices came from the mouths of several new educated youths, each of them trying to straighten their backs so as not to be laughed at by the older educated youths when they arrived at the educated youth settlement.

"My God, we're finally here! I thought I was going to die on the way." Chao Xianhua walked between Bai Nuo and Sun Yuxi, holding one of their wrists with each hand. The remaining hour of the journey was basically dragged by the two of them.

She wanted to be strong, but... it was just too difficult.

Bai Nuo turned his head and glanced at the girl, sighed softly, and was about to speak when he saw Chao Xianhua suddenly perk up and look at Bai Nuo with a pleading expression.

"Little sister Bai Nuo, I beg you, please stop comforting me. The more you comfort me, the more desperate I become."

"..." Bai Nuo's lips twitched slightly, and he swallowed the words he was about to say.

"Host, I've told you to stop comforting her. You've made her cry three times in the past hour." The system said speechlessly. It had always known that its host's mouth was toxic, but it never expected that well-intentioned comfort would also be poisonous.

Her host is not suited to be a kind person.

Bai Nuo pursed her lips innocently. She just thought that Chao Xianhua and Sun Yuxi had pretty good personalities. The original plot of that book started with the world collapsing, so there was no original male and female protagonists.

She remembered her grandmother saying that she hoped she could make friends happily like a normal girl. If it really was her grandmother who arranged for her to go to the countryside, then her grandmother would be more at ease if she lived a good life and made good friends here.

That's why he kindly offered to comfort Chao Xianhua and even lent her his wrist to hold.

She didn't know why, but the girl cried even harder.

Sure enough, she was the dumbest one in the Bai family. Even being reborn by her mother after transmigrating here didn't improve her intelligence. It must be because her biological father's genes were bad.

As Bai Nuo walked, she pitied herself and her resolve to exonerate her own father intensified.

Wei Zhongping walked ahead of the girls and couldn't help but smile. He had deliberately walked in this position all the way, keeping a distance of neither too far nor too close to the girls, so that if anything happened in the future, he could protect these seemingly delicate city girls in time.

He hadn't expected that the one who looked the weakest and smallest among the seven new educated youths was actually the one with the best physique. She didn't complain about being tired the whole way and her breathing remained steady. Even though she looked exhausted with her arms and head drooping, he was sure he could hear her breathing clearly. After all, she was a veteran who had come from the battlefield.

He was quite surprised at first, not expecting that this girl was not only strong but also had such good physical fitness. However, this girl... was not good at comforting people; her words could make people despair.

After walking for about half an hour after entering the brigade, we finally saw a large courtyard with earthen bricks and blue tiles.
