Early the next morning, people from the educated youth offices of each commune arrived and took their respective commune mbers away.
Anguang County oversees 21 communes, 154 brigades, and 1280 teams, with a total cultivated land area exceeding 1.2 million mu. The commune integrates industry, agriculture, comrce, education, and military, managing production, life, and civil affairs.
It serves as both a production and life managent unit, as well as a grassroots governnt organization, integrating governnt and society.
At the commune level, there are hospitals, schools, supply and marketing cooperatives, credit cooperatives, and veterinary stations. These units are publicly funded with community assistance. Initially, they were built with investnts from mbers and production teams, and the governnt also invested and subsidized them.
The distance from the county to the commune is about 10 to 20 li. The highway is in disrepair, a constant dust storm, but the distant scenery of mountains and rivers, and the nearby fertile fields with vibrant greenery bring so relief to these educated youths from the city regarding their future.
The car stopped in front of the commune’s supply and marketing cooperative, and before it ca to a complete stop, Xu Qinghuan already heard a voice, "Qinghuan, Xu Qinghuan, is Xu Qinghuan here?"
It was Qiao Xinyu’s voice.
Xu Qinghuan was overjoyed and quickly climbed out of the open-top car. As she was getting over the car, one leg over the side, hands gripping the edges, her eyes were already fixed on Qiao Xinyu. At that mont, soone pushed her shoulder, her center of gravity shifted, and, caught off guard, she lost her grip and flew out.
"Ah! Huanhuan!" Qiao Xinyu rushed over.
Xu Qinghuan panicked, reaching back to grab the edge of the car but caught nothing. Just as everyone was in a state of panic, a strong arm stretched over, with a palm supporting her back. Clutching it like a lifesaving straw, Xu Qinghuan grabbed the man’s shoulder.
As she turned her head, Xu Qinghuan fell into a pair of deep eyes, bright and shining like winter night stars, as unfathomably mysterious as the Milky Way, chillingly cold like the endless night sky, sending shivers down her spine.
The man had neat short hair, revealing a smooth forehead, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, a high and straight nose, thin and tightly clenched lips, rugged facial contours exuding an expression of impatience, his Adam’s apple pronounced, exuding a blend of sensuality and restraint.
As Xu Qinghuan stared at him, he rely glanced at her indifferently, withdrew his hand, causing Xu Qinghuan to panic again as she supported herself against his arm and finally stood firmly.
The man imdiately turned around and left, eager to sever ties.
Xu Qinghuan estimated his height to be nearly 1.9 ters, with a slender build, broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs. His clothes were worn out, both pants and shirt were too short.
But his strides were determined, his deanor outstanding, like a top male model on a runway. Despite the beggar-style clothes, they didn’t undermine his image; instead, their tight fit highlighted his muscles, exuding power and strength.
Xu Qinghuan had personally experienced how powerful that arm was!
It was as if he was crafted according to her imagined man. Seeing a flesh-and-blood figure, Xu Qinghuan felt that this man was simply the creator’s most perfect handiwork!
Other n appeared utterly insignificant in his presence.
I wonder how he compares to Jiang Xingye?
Xu Qinghuan reluctantly withdrew her gaze and turned towards the car, eting Lu Nianying’s slightly panicked eyes, "You, you, you... what are you doing?"
Lu Nianying was sitting near the back of the car. Earlier, she clearly felt soone push her shoulder, and now seeing Lu Nianying’s expression made things clear. Xu Qinghuan grabbed Lu Nianying’s collar with one hand and yanked her out of the car.
"Ahhh, murder!"
Jiang Xingye turned around just in ti to see the girl throwing the person who pushed her flying. Unlike earlier, he quickly gave way, and Lu Nianying was smashed to the ground.
Jiang Xingye was sowhat annoyed. Returning evil for good shouldn’t be like this, throwing soone so big at his back, did she want to crush him to death?
Xu Qinghuan didn’t think much about it. Her attention was all on Lu Nianying at that mont. She walked over and kicked the person on the ground, "If murder weren’t illegal, you would have died a thousand tis!"
The educated youth office clerk was counting heads and rushed over, "What’s going on, what’s going on? Starting conflicts as soon as you arrive, what do you think you’re doing?"
Xu Qinghuan’s eyes turned red, pointing at Lu Nianying with grievance, "She tried to murder . When I was getting off the car just now, she intentionally tried to kill !"
Lu Nianying jumped up from the ground in shock, "No, I didn’t!"
"You did!"
Yu Xiaomin had already gotten off the car, "I saw it with my own eyes, we all saw it. When Huanhuan was getting off, she pushed Huanhuan, she really wanted to smash Huanhuan to death!"
The clerk’s surna was Xu, and his na was Ruiyang. Looking at Lu Nianying, good heavens, she could beco a movie star with that Bulaji dress, silk hair ribbon, leather shoes, compared to Xu Qinghuan who was in rags, full of righteousness, clearly one of their own.
His gaze turned sharp as he asked Lu Nianying, "What’s your na, why did you do it?"
Lu Nianying was truly panicking by now, crying, "I didn’t, I didn’t want to kill her, I just wanted to... right, I saw her almost falling, I just wanted to help her. I only wanted to help her."
Xu Qinghuan sneered, "Help ? From the way I flew out of the vehicle, you could analyze the force direction through my trajectory. Why, do you think no one else has studied physics and doesn’t understand this principle?"
The crowd, clueless about how to analyze force direction through motion trajectory: ...
This newly arrived educated youth’s words seed to make a lot of sense!
Praised as truly incomprehensible, Xu Ruiyang, force analysis. Without much thought, he stood on Xu Qinghuan’s side, "You pushed her, everyone saw it, what more do you have to argue?"
Lu Nianying couldn’t admit it no matter what, shook her head desperately, tears pouring like rain, "I didn’t, I didn’t, she’s my sister, I couldn’t possibly harm her intentionally."
Xu Ruiyang was astonished, "You two are sisters?"
Xu Qinghuan was disgusted, "No, I don’t have such a good sister."
As Lu Nianying steadfastly refused to admit, there was no normal way to pursue the matter.
But indeed, several people had witnessed Lu Nianying in action. Although Xu Qinghuan avenged herself on the spot, everyone still held wariness towards Lu Nianying, eager to stay far away from such a person.
Xu Ruiyang severely reprimanded Lu Nianying a few tis, only giving a verbal warning, stating that if it happened again, there would be no leniency.
Lu Nianying wasn’t bothered. With the Lu Family in the mix, what could this small rural area do to her?
People from various brigades arrived, waiting for the educated youth office to allocate positions. Xu Qinghuan and Qiao Xinyu stood holding hands aside, her heart filled with questions, but it was not the right ti to speak privately. They waited for Clerk Xu to call the nas.
On the other side, Jiang Xingye had co today driving the brigade’s tractor to transport fertilizer and had given a ride to the mbers coming over. With the fertilizer loaded and the mbers seated on the tractor, he didn’t start the engine.
"Xingye, why aren’t you leaving? What’s so interesting about this commotion?" Qiu Linghua asked.
She had given birth to three sons and two daughters, selling off the daughters to trade for brides for her sons, and had a little son spoiled like a treasure, nicknad Sun Laizi by the villagers, a universally despised character.
Jiang Xingye ignored her as if he didn’t hear, being a man of few words, often ignoring people, sothing the people on the tractor were accustod to, and so they waited with patience.
