"I really don’t understand why they assigned so many educated youth to our brigade, they can’t do anything well, and they eat without leaving anything behind!"
"Exactly, and they say they’re supporting rural construction, but all they do is co here to snatch our food, what’s there to support?"
"Why would we need educated people to farm? From ancient tis, weren’t those who farm illiterate?"
The voices of discussion arose and fell, and as they started talking, the people in the brigade forgot they were still at the entrance of the educated youth point. But what if they heard? Xu Qinghuan couldn’t help but admit that before the 20th century, what they said indeed made so sense.
The educated youth who ca to the countryside really haven’t helped the rural areas at all; instead, they’ve been causing trouble all day.
Their purpose of coming to the countryside was not to help the rural areas but to alleviate the food crisis and employnt pressure in the cities.
Bang!
Just as Xu Qinghuan couldn’t hold on with her thick skin anymore, the sound of the butcher’s knife chopping on the board shocked everyone.
Jiang Xingye’s dark eyes swept across those who were discussing, his chilling aura made everyone feel frightened, and his cold voice rang out, "Are we still distributing the at?"
"We’ll distribute!" Qiu Linghua wasn’t proactive at work, but she was always the most proactive in distributing resources.
Jiang Xingye tossed a piece of cut at onto the board, "Line up by order of arrival!"
Xu Qinghuan rushed over and took the first place, squeezing Qiu Linghua to the back.
Qiu Linghua wouldn’t stand for it, "Why by order of arrival? Didn’t the educated youths always line up last for distribution before? Xu, get to the back!"
Before Xu Qinghuan could say anything, Jiang Xingye exploded, his eyebrows raised in anger, "Because this pig is brought by , you get to the back, if there’s more, you’ll have a share, if not, watch!"
Qiu Linghua imdiately started acting shalessly, lying on the ground, "Oh dear, being bullied, young people bullying the elderly, why would the educated youths get a share and not , are you favoring her just because she looks pretty..."
Zhou Guizhi rushed over and kicked Qiu Linghua, "To hell with you, Qiu Linghua, you keep yapping and I’ll beat Sun, the slacker, to death!"
Jiang Xingye laughed in anger, though it didn’t reach his eyes, "Everyone standing there just watching the show, huh? Today, I’m not distributing a bit of this at, get out!"
In those tis, who could afford at? It was only their small team in the sa production brigade who occasionally had so, thanks to Jiang Xingye.
Everyone had been counting on it all afternoon, and now they heard it’s not being distributed because of that woman Qiu Linghua; they started blaming her.
"Xingye, why argue with her? She’s just trash, don’t mind her, we don’t believe what she says!"
"Exactly, the educated youths are people too, they work with us every day, why make them line up last?"
"Qiu Linghua, if you keep preventing us from eating at, we’ll pile up a heap of dung in front of your door!"
...
Xu Qinghuan finally witnessed what a village tyrant is, and finally understood why he had such a bad reputation.
That temper!
However, she quite liked it.
Qiu Linghua was pointed at by everyone, and finally dared not struggle, she quickly got up and stood at the end of the line, her lips kept moving, but no one could hear what she was cursing.
Jiang Xingye handed the best piece of five-jin pork belly to Xu Qinghuan, and looked at her deeply.
Xu Qinghuan took the at with a smile, and next to her Jiang Yinhua’s mother, He Xianglan couldn’t help but ask, "Xingye, why does she get such a big piece?"
"Three people’s worth, and it’s big?" Jiang Xingye replied coldly, his manner very impatient.
He Xianglan didn’t dare ask further!
Her turn ca, she pointed at the pork belly, "Xingye, cut a piece here for too!"
Jiang Xingye ignored her, cut a piece of hind leg at and threw it to her, "Next!"
He Xianglan wanted to argue but was pushed aside by Xie Zaohua behind her, standing still. Jiang Xingye took the at from her basket, scaring He Xianglan to clutch her basket and run away quickly.
Jiang Xingye gave Xie Zaohua a piece of pork belly, and she left joyfully.
While the at was being distributed lively over here, the Dong Family was crying like the sky fell, Dong Aii, after showering, changed clothes and cried mournfully, "Dad, send that educated youth to the farm, don’t let her stay in our brigade, I want her dead at the farm!"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Dong Xinmin glanced at the kitchen and scolded softly.
Dong Aii cried, "Dad, I’ve been bullied so badly today, lost the scorer’s job, aren’t you going to avenge ? It’s all because of that bitch Xu Qinghuan, if she stays in the brigade, how will the people here see us?"
Sun Guihua wiped tears by the side and said, "Her dad, this female educated youth is indeed too ruthless. If everyone follows her example, wouldn’t the educated youths rebel, how could it end well?"
Dong Xinmin smoked without saying a word, but from his cunning eyes, it was clear he was pondering.
Dong Aii said angrily, "If you don’t send her to the farm, let her marry the village’s fool, Sun seems good to !"
In the kitchen, the spatula hit the pot heavily, Shen Jinju glanced at her husband sitting by the stove feeding firewood, his face illuminated red by the firelight looked naive, her heart suddenly felt a piercing pain.
Back then, her father-in-law had told her just like this, "Either marry my son or marry Sun, your choice!"
The man had low intelligence, ntally a child of eight or nine, while Sun was lazy and evil. She didn’t want to choose either, but for survival, she had to yield eventually.
"Lower the fire!" Shen Jinju said coldly.
The man looked up at her with a pleasing smile, pulled out a piece of firewood and stuffed it into the ash pit, obediently watching the fire.
Shen Jinju carried a basin out of the room, glanced at her sister-in-law, and walked out.
Sun Guihua called her, "Jinju, where are you going?"
Shen Jinju said, "Isn’t it at distribution? Nobody going? I’ll go and get the at!"
Sun Guihua hurriedly ca over to snatch the basin, "No need for you, Jiang Xiaowu will reserve a good piece for us, you’ve been busy all day, go rest!"
Dong Aii ca over, pushed Shen Jinju, "Why bother, just want to tip them off?"
Shen Jinju fell to the ground, felt a pain in her stomach, blood gushed out from underneath, she clutched her stomach wrenching in pain, her face pale, tears flowed instantly, painfully said, "Take, take to the hospital!"
"Hospital for what? Such a fuss!"
Shen Jinju only felt sothing leaving her body, it was the child she had determined to have, too alone in this world, abandoned by her parents, stranded in the countryside, she wanted a solace to sustain her.
