Looking at his mother's back as she left him, Zhang Lin felt mixed emotions. His mother's words made him realize that what he had just said was a bit harsh. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his mother must have heard it from the tone.

I wanted to go apologize to my mother, but after two steps, I stopped and said, "Okay, let my mother calm down first! I'll go apologize to her later."

It was already noon at the Youth League Institute, and the educated youth had just finished their meal. They didn't do much activity in winter and only had two meals a day. After the meal, everyone started studying again.

I studied until evening, when the sky darkened again and became gloomy. It looked like it was going to snow again.

"Oh, it's going to snow again. I guess I'll have to get up and shovel the snow again tonight."

Zhang Jiansong complained while looking at the gloomy sky.

"I've been in Northeast China for two years, but I still don't know the weather there?"

Zhang Jianlin looked at his brother's silly look and couldn't help but say something to him.

Ever since the educated youth started studying and eating together, the task of cooking was handed over to Liu Jingjing, Sun Yuqi and others. So when they saw that it was about to snow, they started cooking. While they were busy, they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the village. Sun Yuqi's heart moved. She looked at Lin Muren, but found that Lin Muren was also looking at her.

The two looked at each other and continued cooking, but Liu Jingjing ran out to watch the fun.

Who would have thought that in less than ten minutes, Zhang Lin actually came to the Youth League Home crying, clamoring for the Youth League to take responsibility.

Sun Yuqi and Lin Muren walked out of the house and looked at Zhang Lin with tears on his face, and then looked at Zhang Jianlin and Chen Hao and others beside him.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying here?"

Chen Hao sneered.

"They feel like we educated youth are easy to bully. Now that the elders can't bully us, the younger ones will take over!"

When Zhang Lin heard Chen Hao say this, he immediately burst into tears.

"It's all your fault. If you hadn't asked the police to arrest my second uncle, my second aunt wouldn't have made a fuss about it, and my mother wouldn't have died!"

When the educated youth heard Zhang Lin say that his mother was dead, they were also stunned. They guessed that something had happened, but they didn't expect that it was Zhang Lin's mother who died?

But can the educated youth be blamed for this? Sun Yuqi and the others naturally deny it, and the matter is not settled in this way. Could it be that the educated youth had caused Zhang Lin's mother to commit adultery with Accountant Zhang?

The surrounding villagers were also looking at Zhang Lin in amazement. Zhang Lin, who was usually obedient and hardworking in the village, could actually say such words.

"Zhang Lin, what you said is wrong. The educated youth were framed by your Zhang family. Your second aunt said this herself. What's the matter? Are you still going to blame these educated youth for this?"

A voice came from outside the crowd, and Sun Yuqi immediately recognized it as Aunt Mei's voice. Aunt Mei was the captain's wife, and her words had a certain influence in the village.

When the onlookers heard Aunt Mei's voice, they naturally left a passage for Aunt Mei to come in.

Aunt Mei walked in with her head held high. She had just been cooking at home when she heard the neighbors tell her that Zhang Lin's mother had hanged herself at home because she was upset about what happened today. Zhang Lin blamed the incident on several educated youth and went to the educated youth compound to cause trouble.

Aunt Mei thought that her old man had gone to the commune because of Accountant Zhang's matter and had not returned yet. If this matter got out of hand, it would be even worse. Now the national situation has changed, and the educated youth can take the exam and may return to the city. It is better not to offend them, so she hurried over to check on them. Who knew that when she got here, she heard Zhang Lin foolishly blaming everything on the educated youth.

Seeing Aunt Mei coming, Zhang Lin suddenly felt a little depressed, but he didn't think so. He felt that if the educated youth had not found a way to clarify this matter, his second uncle would not have been arrested. If he had not been arrested, their family would not have experienced everything today, and his mother would not have committed suicide.

"Aunt Mei, this matter is not a big deal. My second uncle did that because he didn't want to offend my wife. But why are they unwilling to admit that they did it? If they did, my second uncle wouldn't have been arrested, and there wouldn't be any subsequent incidents!"

Sun Yuqi sneered after hearing what Zhang Lin said.

"Zhang Lin, you are really shameless. You seemed to be a good person before, but now your true colors are finally revealed. You are indeed the same as your second uncle. Let's not talk about your mother's suicide for now. As for what your second uncle did, he embezzled state property and he deserved to be arrested. As for your mother's affairs, haha, it is even more impossible that it has anything to do with us. Could it be that we, the educated youth, let your mother and your second uncle get together?" As soon as Sun Yuqi finished speaking, the villagers watching around burst into laughter.

Zhang Lin's eyes had turned blood red from the laughter.

Sun Yuqi ignored him and continued.

"You know, your second aunt said that they had been together for quite a while, even when you were very young. I don't believe you really didn't know all these years, you just pretended not to know. Now that this matter has been exposed, you feel ashamed, but how can you not feel ashamed when you were using your mother to exchange for benefits from your second uncle? Why did your mother commit suicide? I think you'd better think about who was responsible. After these two days, everyone in the village knew that we educated youth were innocent because we just went to the police station to state the facts of the false accusation. Who knew that the police station already had evidence of your second uncle, Accountant Zhang,'s corruption? What happened today was just a matter of convenience!"

"That's right, Zhang's boy, everyone in our village has been watching this. It's great that the educated youth didn't come to our door from the beginning to the end. We need to be reasonable and not act recklessly."

This voice appeared behind the crowd. Everyone turned around and saw that it was the father of the team leader Zheng Chengwei, who was also the former team leader of Zhengjiatun. The villagers all made way.

The old captain walked in with a cane and looked at Zhang Lin.

"Zhang Lin, your grandfather once brought your father and your second uncle to our Zhengjiatun. I took them in and settled them here. Our Zhengjiatun people have pure customs, and we don't allow people who ruin our customs to appear. For the sake of our reputation, our village shouldn't spread what happened between your second uncle and your mother. But you came out here and wanted to make a big deal out of it?"

Sun Yuqi, Chen Hao and others looked at each other, and they already knew that the old captain was trying to smooth things over, but they didn't care. There were many ways to make Zhang Lin's life difficult.
