Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Teaching the Bully a Lesson

It is very important to control the timing of wheat sowing. A little rain cannot stop the villagers from going to the fields to work. Instead, they are urged to work faster, otherwise the seedlings in the fields will not survive when the weather gets cold.

The team went to work as usual today.

Ye Yu's clothes today were covered in patches, like work clothes made from patchwork of old clothes. Even Wang Lai Di's craftsmanship couldn't save them, and the idea of them being fashionable was completely nonsense.

I put on the straw sandals I bought from Sister Guihua, stood up and walked around twice. The shoes were indeed light and comfortable and did not hurt my feet. The only drawback was that the soles were relatively thin and more likely to break. Then I put on a conical hat and tied it around my chin with a hemp rope. I didn't have to worry about it falling off even if I moved a lot or there was wind, which made it more convenient to work.

Went out like yesterday.

The people I met on the road were all dressed similarly. Most of them wore conical hats, and some even wore full straw raincoats. At first glance, they looked very representative of the times.

Even though she was dressed similarly to the villagers, Ye Yu still looked very different, a bright and eye-catching sight in the crowd.

The beautiful girls and young wives in the village only thought she was pretty, had a good look and walked beautifully, so they secretly learned to straighten their backs and waists.

It shrank back with a flick of its ear, the tip of its ear still a little red. It looked around quietly, and when it saw that it was not the only one doing this, it took it for granted.

Fresh and young girls are not bad at all, and when they become confident, they all have their own beauty.

Among the four educated youth, Ye Yu was the one who spoke the least, seldom laughed, and kept a distance from others.

But there are still some Sheniu who come over to chat: "Girl, why are you the only one here today?"

Another young man helped answer: "I know, I know. Several other comrades took leave and went to town. I saw them leaving this morning."

"Are they going home?"

"You've only been here for one day, this is impossible, right?"

"What's impossible? It's a waste to do farm work like that. It's a waste of your height. If it were me, I would just jump into the manure pit and drown. Hahaha, I don't know how our lame team leader selected the educated youth."

The people at the beginning were mostly curious, and at most added a bit of ridicule, but the person who said this at the end clearly had bad intentions and was full of malice.

Ye Yu frowned and glanced across.

She saw a young man jumping up and down. His clothes were well-dressed and not patched, but his appearance was in line with his heart. His triangular eyes made him look mean, and when he laughed, three or five jagged fangs were exposed, making him even more annoying.

Everyone around him calls him "Wang Laosan".

This is Wangjiagou. There are a lot of people with the surname Wang, and many of them are the third child in the family. If you can identify someone by "Wang Lao San", it can be almost certain that they are from the old village chief's family.

Ye Yu felt fortunate for the villagers of Wangjiagou.

The fact that the village chief is not such a stupid and vicious villain is a small advantage of destroying the ancestral hall, abolishing the so-called respected old customs, and promoting people's autonomy.

Perhaps the laughter gave this person confidence, and he jumped around happily.

Ye Yu retorted, "You're right. If you can't plow a hundred acres of land every day, lift the village's 500-jin stone mill, and cut thousands of jin of firewood for the winter, then you've grown so tall for nothing. If it were me, I'd just throw myself into a manure pit and drown."

The sound was not loud, but it was penetrating and clear, reaching everyone's ears at once.

“…”

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Who here can plow a hundred acres of land, lift a 500-jin millstone, and chop thousands of kilograms of firewood in a day?

"The little girl is young, but she speaks so arrogantly." The man with triangular eyes glared at her.

"You are quite old, but your eyes are not big." Ye Yu looked him up and down and came to the conclusion.

"you!"

Wang Laosan was used to having everything go smoothly in the village. The villagers would give him some face for the sake of his grandfather and father. He had never been directly confronted like this before. He was filled with anger and rushed forward with his head down, holding the hoe tightly in his hand.

Perhaps because the incident happened suddenly, or because the hoe was timid, the people around him were unable to stop him for a while.

Some people were worried about Ye Yu. After all, Wang Laosan had a hoe in his hand, while Ye Yu was unarmed, and he couldn't help but hold his breath.

But Ye Yu still looked calm and composed. When Wang Laosan rushed to him, he turned around quickly to avoid him and kicked him.

Then, Wang Laosan turned into a parabola and flew out, landing several meters away with a muffled sound.

“???”

“!!!”

Oh shit!

This female comrade is really too strong, and she is also very agile. No one could see clearly when she moved sideways just now, even with their eyes open.

Born with supernatural powers!

Who knows, she could really plow a hundred acres of land a day, lift the village's 500-jin stone mill, and chop thousands of jins of firewood for the winter. In the past, she could have passed the imperial examination to become the top martial arts scholar. But no, women cannot pass the imperial examination to become the top martial arts scholar.

After a while, Wang Laoer's father, the former village chief, arrived.

It was very common for disputes and fights to break out in the village. The former village chief was very experienced. He took the high ground and cried about how miserable his third son was. He had bruises all over his body, his hands were broken, and his legs might even be broken. He lamented that the educated youth were too cruel and did not even say hello to their elders when they met them. He lacked manners.

The thin and short old man with many wrinkles on his face was wiping his tears and crying even more miserably than his son.

Some people couldn't stand it, and they habitually stood on the side of the seemingly weak, and began to persuade the former village chief to help Wang Laoer get up and talk things out properly.

Ye Yu didn't want to talk nicely. Against the backdrop of the father and son's wailing, he sneered and said venomously, "So it's your family? They provoked and hit people first, and even brought weapons with them. And when they were stopped in self-defense, they had the nerve to cry, make a fuss, and even threaten to hang themselves? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, he's not right. He was definitely insulting the manure by jumping into it. Other people's manure can at least fertilize the crops in the fields, but he can only whimper... To come up with such a thing, sir, your family's upbringing is certainly not comparable to mine."

Damn, that’s so poisonous.

This city girl's curse is different from theirs. She doesn't use any dirty words or sexual connotations, and even uses respectful titles. But she is just as vicious as them. This time, Wang Laoer is even worse than feces.

Wang Laoer was so angry that he almost fell back, but he didn't dare to be cruel to Ye Yu anymore. His foot was still sprained, and he couldn't even pretend to be righteous if he was scared.

The captain is here too.

When asked about the situation, he said: "The one who started it first is the cheap one. Whoever made the mistake will have to bear the consequences himself."

The former village chief just said that regardless of anything else, the medical expenses must be compensated, and this was a very clear calculation.

"Luckily, you weren't injured, so you don't need to pay for the medical expenses," Ye Yu said. "You can get some compensation for mental damage. It doesn't matter if you don't have money. Food, vegetables, and meat will be fine."

Former Village Chief:

...Who will compensate whom? !

"puff--"

Some onlookers laughed.

There was also a lively young man who said, "Ye Zhiqing, what is the compensation for mental damage?"

The Wang family may have done some practical things for Wangjiagou, but they have also done a lot of immoral things. Their reputation is mixed, and in recent years, the criticism has outweighed the praise. Therefore, not all villagers stand on their side.

Moreover, most villagers were just there to watch the fun. They didn't necessarily have to stand on either side. They laughed just now, and they laughed now. As long as it was funny, they would laugh.

"Do you understand the Red Spirit? The brigade is my home. Peace is for you and me, unity and friendship, building a beautiful home together. Anyone who stirs up disputes among the masses is a bad element!" Ye Yudong pieced together a bunch of nonsense, and finally got to the point. "We educated youth went to the countryside to learn and build the village. There's no reason to be hit by someone with a hoe. Even if you're not an educated youth, this is intentional injury. Why don't you go to the town police station and ask?"

These days, most of the issues within the team are resolved within the team, and very few involve the commune. The educated youths often talk about the Public Security Bureau, which scares many villagers.

Including the former village chief.

Don’t be fooled by Wang Laoer’s loud shouting and noise, the one who really makes the decision is still his father.

Moreover, the team leader was not stupid, and it was even less likely that he would side with the Wang family who had always been in the same team with him. He immediately decided that Wang Laoer should compensate the educated youth with one dollar and fifty cents or twenty kilograms of food.

One dollar and fifty cents is definitely not enough to buy twenty kilograms of grain, not even ten kilograms. But this is in a village where making money is not easy. Not to mention fine grains, you can still afford dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes and coarse grains, not to mention a family with good financial conditions like Wang Laoer.

Let’s leave this matter alone for now.

Ye Yu defeated the former village chief and the defeated village chief, and became famous in one battle. In addition, she had also argued with all the relatives yesterday morning, and her reputation in the village was out of control. For example, she kicked Wang Laoer five/ten/dozens of meters/more than ten miles away (???).

The villagers no longer called her "daughter" or "girl" blindly. At least they called her "female comrade" or "Comrade Ye" to her face. Some people even believed the rumors that became more and more outrageous and avoided her.

Ye Yu was not a very sociable person, so even if she was curious, no one would come to inquire about the affairs of other educated youth, and her ears would be left in peace. She knew that some people were talking behind her back, but what did this have to do with her?

Twenty kilograms of food for free√.

Ye Yu just felt that the weather today was really good. The mountain village was filled with the fragrance of earth after the rain.

It's also very exciting to work.

The cooperation with Sister Guihua was also perfect, and their respective work points were the highest 10 points.

Sister Guihua felt that she was simply working for nothing. She felt embarrassed but also grateful. She just wanted to quickly weave what Ye Zhiqing needed.

Sister Guihua also heard about what happened on the way to work. Of course, she stood on Ye Yu's side, but she was still worried about Ye Yu. "A harsh word can hurt like a cold summer wind." She only understood this saying deeply after her husband passed away.

Ye Yu, who lives a free and unrestrained life, has become the person she envies and admires the most.

Although the drizzle today was not heavy, it did not stop. In addition, all the land had been plowed, so we finished work earlier in the afternoon than yesterday.

Ye Yu went to Wang Laoer's house and brought back 20 kilograms of grain to the educated youth site.

As expected, the twenty kilograms of food were all sweet potatoes, but she didn't mind at all. She thought it would be great if there were more of such good things. Unfortunately, Wang Laoer seemed to be scared. When she went to his house, he hid in the house and refused to come out, so she couldn't get any more benefits from him.

Was that kick a bit heavy? But she hadn't even used one tenth of her strength! The fact that Wang Lao Er had no obvious sequelae was proof of that.

"Oh, that's a pity."

Ye Yu put the sweet potatoes in the kitchen, returned to the room, took out some gifts mainly prepared by Wang Lai Di, put them in a backpack, and carried them to visit relatives.
