But she didn’t want to complain, because she had seen Jared's and
Dixon's rooms too. Compared to their rooms, hers was much better. The
conditions were indeed terrible. The room was simple with only a wooden bed, a
rickety table, a chair, a broken desk and an old wardrobe.
Everything was seen at a glance.
The only thing to comfort Debbie was that there was a new and clean set of
bedding. She counted herself lucky for that.
It was getting darker outside. After dropping off their own Luggage at their
different rooms, the group gathered at the village head's house and had dinner
together.
The village head had prepared enough food for the guests. On the long table,
various dishes were served, everything from fresh farm ingredients. There was
rabbit meat, turkey, pork and fish. ALL generously provided by farmers across the
village. Although the dishes didn’t ook all that decorated, the aroma aroused
Debbie's appetite.
After a moment of hesitation, Gregory finally picked his chopsticks and took a
bite. But the other girls sat still, sipping at their cups of hot tea, to get some
warmth. Gus and Jared, both born into aristocracy, kept killing time by playing
games on their phones, without even lifting their chopsticks. Debbie couldn't help
but nudge Jared, and persuaded in a hushed voice, “Jared, eat something. Show
some respect to the villagers!”
Debbie knew sacrifice it must have taken the women who volunteered to prepare
the meals. “The villagers would find it insulting, if we don’t eat, * she thought.
Reluctantly, Jared pursed his lips, put his phone aside and grabbed his
chopsticks to pick a few slices of meat.
However, Gus didn’t care. He remained glued to his phone. Unimpressed by his
aloofness, Debbie rolled her eyes, but she didn’t want to wheedle him.
As the team leader, Dixon, realized it was incumbent on him to address
Gus’ indifference and maybe discourage anyone who might have similar
thoughts. So when all the villagers went outside, he rose up to speak.
“Hey, guys, Listen to me! The villagers have devoted a lot of effort to prepare this
meal for us. Maybe these foods are not good enough for you guys, but for them,
these are the best. Probably, they will only have the chance to enjoy such a big
meal once a year, on New Year. So let's be considerate enough, just Like what
Debbie said. Eat some and show respect to the villagers, okay?”
After Dixon’s words, all the students obeyed him and began eating the food,
except one person.
Once more, Debbie rolled her eyes. But she came up with an idea.
“Dixon, do we have anything to charge our phones tonight?” she asked.
Maybe that would destruct Gus.
Dixon instantly understood what Debbie meant to say.
“No,” he answered, his gaze fixed on Gus.
