"It’s !"
Xu Qinghuan turned her head and smiled, "I’m the one who got you out of the educated youth spot and put you on Sun Lai Zi’s bed; I’m the one who let you and Sun Lai Zi spend a night together and made it impossible for you to wake up in the morning. I’m the one who invited so many people to witness your love. What, satisfied?"
Xu Qinghuan’s every word was true. She had put Kong Lijuan in her space, smuggled her to the Sun Family, placed her on Sun Lai Zi’s bed, and even applied so aphrodisiac under their noses. Naturally, the two were like dry wood catching fire.
She was also the one who arranged for Jiang Xingye to set up this scene of catching them in the act.
Sun Lai Zi, after all, had limited capability; he couldn’t hold out till dawn before he called it quits.
Not witnessing the most intense scene, Xu Qinghuan couldn’t help but feel a little regret.
Kong Lijuan was stunned, even though what Xu Qinghuan said was all true, except for Jiang Xingye, no one else believed it.
"Shaless, doing it yourself and then blaming others when you had your fun. What, did soone help you spread your legs or sothing?"
Zhou Guizhi, who arrived late but already knew the whole story, was displeased seeing Kong Lijuan push the bla onto Xu Qinghuan.
Kong Lijuan herself realized her accusation against Xu Qinghuan even she couldn’t believe, and she cried out, "I was sleeping at the educated youth spot last night!"
Jiang Xingye glanced at Hu Hai, who hurriedly said, "Sun Lai Zi, was it you who carried Kong Lijuan over from the educated youth spot?"
"Ah, can’t be, going to the educated youth spot in the middle of the night, barging into a female youth’s room, isn’t that illegal?" Song Anping exclaid in shock.
Duan Qingi jumped up imdiately, "Nonsense, Kong Lijuan didn’t sleep at the educated youth spot last night."
No matter what, they couldn’t let people suspect that Sun Lai Zi entered their room last night, otherwise, their reputation would be ruined.
Xu Manman also realized by now and quickly nodded, "Yes, we were asleep, and she didn’t co back. When we got up this morning, the doors and windows were all shut tightly!"
Qu Qiongfang, who had been silent last night, stated firmly now, "She and Sun Lai Zi had already set their wedding plans, and when she didn’t return, we thought it might be because she was unwilling to co back to sleep after what Qingi said, we were even worried about her."
If not for experiencing it firsthand, Kong Lijuan would think that last night’s crying at the educated youth spot and the discussion were all just a dream.
She never thought that at such a critical mont, those whom she once lived with under the sa roof and talked about being a team would, without hesitation, abandon her and stab her in the back.
Hatred spread, Kong Lijuan sneered coldly, staring at Xu Manman, "Last night, wasn’t it you who encouraged to report to the educated youth office that Jiang Xingye forced to marry Sun Lai Zi since I didn’t want to marry him?"
She turned to Duan Qingi, "Comrade Duan, and you, you also said you would report him, claiming Jiang Xingye set fire to the village’s haystack, and that he was guilty of destroying public property!"
Duan Qingi jumped imdiately, "You’re lying; clearly, it was you who said that."
After speaking, Duan Qingi realized she had fallen into Kong Lijuan’s trap. Imdiately, facing Jiang Baohua’s eyes, her face turned pale, "I was just saying; the haystack, the haystack isn’t valuable."
Xu Qinghuan said, "Of course it’s valuable, after all it’s public property. We will definitely compensate for the burnt haystack and hand the money to the brigade later."
The haystack wasn’t valuable at all, and the fire was put out quickly; not much was burned. If the losses were significant, the production team would have made a fuss yesterday.
But Xu Qinghuan didn’t want to leave room for gossip if it could be resolved with money.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Xu Manman, "So, you were encouraging people to report and accuse, weren’t you? If you have a problem with the production team’s arrangents, tell , how should they have been arranged yesterday to be reasonable?
Oh, right, marriage is not a good idea. Nowadays, we advocate for freedom of marriage, so let’s stop the harvest. Spend ten days or half a month first dealing with the ’cheap shoes’ scandal, shall we?"
"How is that possible? Who has the ti to deal with ’cheap shoes’? If we don’t harvest, what will we eat in the future?"
"Exactly, looking at Comrade Xu like a decent person, who knew she’s so deceitful behind backs!"
"Calling each other sisters, but actually thinking about how to harm people behind their backs. Just looking at her face, you know she’s no good!"
The mbers, watch the commotion as they may, still knew that production was the most important thing. Otherwise, they’d starve all year long and wouldn’t live.
Listening to their condemnation, Xu Manman’s face turned extrely unpleasant; just because Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye were engaged, these country bumpkins sided with Xu Qinghuan.
Jiang Chengxu could only feel regret. The idea Xu Manman ca up with was quite good. If it had succeeded, Jiang Xingye would have been at fault, and Xu Qinghuan would definitely have broken off the engagent with him.
Unfortunately, the result turned out to be like this.
Chen Dewen saw the expression on Jiang Chengxu’s face and sneered, "Comrade Xu Manman, I rember you and Jiang Chengxu were caught playing hooligans on the street in Shen City. People wanted to drag you off and deal with the ’cheap shoes’, yet you claid you were dating, right?
I recall, it was less than a day after Xu Qinghuan broke off the engagent with Jiang Chengxu, and Jiang Chengxu seamlessly connected with you?"
"Comrade Jiang sure is greedy, huh? What’s the matter, want both sisters too?"
"Comrade Xu and Comrade Jiang broke off their engagent, and so the sister-in-law and brother-in-law, hah, everyone understands!"
"Truly blind, fancying Comrade Xu alone and not the other Xu, only to let Jiang Xingye, that stinky kid, pick up the advantage."
Xu Manman’s eyes reddened, and she hastily explained, "No, it was because I sprained my ankle at the ti, and Chengxu helped , but soone saw, and we had no choice but, but to say we were dating."
Chen Dewen snorted, "If your ankle was sprained, the Red Rust Chapter wouldn’t listen to explanations? What, are they being unreasonable? If your ankle was really sprained, they would have handled it based on actual circumstances?"
The key was that Xu Manman’s ankle wasn’t sprained at that ti.
Xu Manman looked at Jiang Chengxu pleadingly, "Brother Chengxu!"
Jiang Chengxu turned his head away cold-heartedly. When he realized later that Xu Manman’s ankle wasn’t sprained, he both appreciated her infatuation and hated her for deceiving him.
Xu Manman covered her face and cried, "My ankle was indeed sprained, it hurt a lot at that ti, just not seriously, no redness or swelling. Why won’t you listen to my explanation, why do you insist on misunderstanding ?"
Hearing her complaint, Jiang Chengxu couldn’t bear it; what she shouldn’t have done was fall for him, but the bitterness of unrequited love, he understood!
Xu Hongtu shouted in anger, "Xu Qinghuan, how long has this issue been over? Why are you still holding on to it? You’re engaged to soone else, can’t you just let bygones be bygones?
Manman was sent to the countryside because of you; what more do you want?"
Qiao Xinyu said, "Xu Hongtu, if going to the countryside is so terrible, why are you here in the countryside? Go back to the city!"
The mbers didn’t look kindly at the siblings, why would they despise the countryside and still co here?
Chen Dewen laughed, "But they have to be able to go back. Even if they could return now, it might not be a good idea!"
Xu Hongtu imdiately had a bad premonition, "What do you an?"
As the mbers were thoroughly entertained by the unfolding drama, Jiang Baohua shouted, "Not going to work, huh? Team leaders, note down everyone staying here for the show and not working, deduct work points from all of them."
Chen Dewen was more than willing to dodge Xu Hongtu’s query. Many things should be witnessed firsthand by those involved for the most exciting revelation, he wouldn’t divulge the Xu family’s dire situation in advance to these two dumb folks.
Both Xu Hongtu and Xu Manman felt a thread pull taut in their minds.
Xu Qinghuan didn’t go to work in the fields, and the person in charge of recording work points and distributing tools for the production team was replaced by Jiang Xingi. When people went to collect their tools and didn’t see Xu Qinghuan, Hu E mocked, "Xingye, Comrade Xu got engaged to you just to avoid work, huh!"
The mbers all looked like they finally understood, saying that Comrade Xu couldn’t possibly be interested in Jiang Xingye, it really was to avoid labor.
