At the base, Leopard told her husband, Panda, that she wanted to go to the brigade to see how the female educated youth were doing.

"I don't know why, but I'm always restless and keep thinking about that female educated youth."

According to Commander Bai, that educated youth had successfully divorced the family in the brigade and was living with her child at the educated youth settlement.

Leopard felt a pang of sadness whenever he thought of her.

Perhaps it was because she was about the same age as his daughter, and he hadn't seen his daughter for a long time, so he projected his emotions onto the female educated youth.

"I'll just take a look, and then I'll come back."

Several researchers would sometimes appear in the brigade, making occasional appearances.

However, the educated youth settlement was located near the middle of the brigade, where people came and went, so it was really unlikely that they could appear openly.

The panda sighed and reluctantly compromised, "Let's find the black cat, but we need his permission."

Black Cat was their leader, and anyone who wanted to go out had to get his permission.

After listening to the couple's words, the black cat adjusted its glasses, smiled, and said, "Want to go out?"

The two nodded, holding their breath as they waited for his reply.

After a long silence, the black cat looked up from the experimental data: "Go, be careful, if you're discovered..."

Leopard: "I know, we'd rather die than expose the base."

Although the panda was very worried, he couldn't do anything about his stubborn wife.

Black Cat only allowed Leopard to go through; he had to stay at the base and wait.

In Lianhua Brigade, Xie Xinyu, the female educated youth mentioned by the researchers, is living a much better life than before.

With Lin Yu's milk powder and the occasional feeding from Ou Manqing and Song Meili, the mother and daughter's health improved.

It has been two months since Xie Xinyu moved out of Li Dawei's house, and she feels that these days are full of hope.

She named her daughter Ruyi, meaning "May everything go as you wish."

As Ruyi grew up day by day, becoming more and more fair and tender, a small, chubby little bundle, her heart softened more and more.

The brigade felt very ashamed that she had been bullied by the Li family, and they were also afraid that she would complain to higher authorities, so the brigade cadres are now taking good care of her.

Xie Xinyu now works as a scorekeeper in the brigade, which is easier and allows her to support herself and her daughter.

When the food workshop needs temporary workers, they will give her priority so that she can earn work points.

So now she can support herself and her child on her own.

Xie Xinyu feels that her current life is like heaven and hell compared to before.

She harbored no resentment towards the people in the brigade. In this era, everyone was minding their own business, and even relatives could report each other, let alone a mere educated youth from elsewhere.

Xie Xinyu felt only gratitude, gratitude for the milk powder Lin Yu had given Ruyi.

She almost thought the child wouldn't survive.

She also expressed her gratitude to Song Meili and Ou Manqing for taking care of her. They not only fed her frequently, but also helped take Ruyi to the workshop office to take care of her when she was busy.

She is grateful for the good people she has met in her life, who have rekindled her hope for life.

Lin Yu is now quite familiar with Xie Xinyu, and she thinks Ruyi is very cute.

That was a child who survived by drinking the milk powder from her space, and Lin Yu liked her very much every time she saw her.

Sometimes Song Meili would bring Ruyi to the workshop, and Lin Yu would push her home in a small cart to play with Keke.

The two children are about the same age and both are adorable; they are now Lin Yu's new favorites.

As for Xiao Tiedan and Xiao Bao, they now run out to play by themselves and get tanned. They're definitely not as cute as the little glutinous rice ball.

The stroller was made by Qiao Feng at Lin Yu's request. He is quite capable with his hands and learned how to make it from Grandpa Qiao when he was a child.

Lin Yu made him make two cars, one for Coco and one for Ruyi.

Sure enough, when Lin Yu arrived at the workshop early in the morning, she saw a small car in the office with the adorable baby Ruyi lying inside.

She seemed to recognize people; when she saw Lin Yu, she would even give him a toothless smile.

Lin Yu smiled and teased her while pushing the cart.

Song Meili was working and found her noisy: "Comrade Xiaoyu, don't disturb our work, go away."

Lin Yu pouted and looked at Ou Manqing again, only to find that she felt the same way.

"Alright, I'll take Ruyi with me."

"Alright, alright, let's go."

Anyway, she often took Ruyi out to play, so they were used to it.

Zhang Bing glanced at Lin Yu's retreating figure, thinking to himself, "I wish I could take Lin Yu's position someday."

You can go wherever you want without having to work in the office all day.

Zhang Bing is extremely lazy; he goes into the office just to avoid working in the fields.

Now that I'm in the office, I'm starting to crave a more comfortable work environment.

Of course, nobody in the office paid him any attention.

Song Meili was annoyed with him and felt that she had been very stupid to have fallen for Zhang Bing.

I only realized how petty Zhang Bing was after meeting him in the office.

Being petty and calculating.

When it comes to office supplies, he insists that everyone take the same amount, and if anyone takes an extra sheet, he will grumble about it.

He can't do even a little extra work; both he and Song Meili are currently in clerical positions, and many tasks are not clearly defined.

He would do as little as possible, and he would never do more than necessary; in short, he would avoid doing anything if he could.

Working together for a while finally allowed Song Meili to see this person clearly.

I really don't know what Li Yulan saw in him?

Ou Manqing said, "To each their own."

Li Yulan doesn't need a particularly hardworking man; as long as he can marry her and prevent her from being criticized as an old maid, that's enough.

This is the obvious reason, which everyone can see.

However, according to Ou Manqing's observation, Li Yulan and Zhang Bing actually have a pretty good relationship.

Li Yulan didn't care whether Zhang Bing could earn money or work points, because she herself was very capable.

Zhang Bing may not be good at work, but he's great at providing emotional support.

He always manages to make Li Yulan happy.

So it seems like the two of them have a pretty good relationship.

When it comes to matters of the heart, only the person experiencing it knows whether it's hot or cold. Ou Manqing told Song Meili that she didn't need to have any opinions about him; they could just be ordinary colleagues.

Song Meili nodded, indicating that she understood and would not let her emotions affect her work.

Lin Yu on the other end had no idea that Zhang Bing envied her job. If she did, she would say that she envied herself too.

Who told her to be so smart, able to help the brigade open a workshop?

Now that the workshop workers are all doing their jobs, she can be a hands-off manager.

Lin Yu pushed Ruyi, humming a song as they walked. The scenery in the countryside was breathtaking.

The sky was blue, and even Ruyi, lying in the stroller, must have felt very happy.

The weather has gotten colder recently, and there's not much work to do in the fields. The team members have all gone to work in the workshops, so Lin Yu only encountered one or two people along the way.

Before I even reached my doorstep, as I passed the former educated youth settlement, I saw a group of children squatting together, including Tiedan and Xiaobao.

What are you doing?
