Gu Bin looked at Wan Chun'er who jumped out and said, "I don't eat or drink at the educated youth settlement. I just come back to sleep. Even when I wash my clothes, I go to the river to wash them!"

"Why should I still do work for the educated youth?"

Am I out of my mind?

"As for making contributions, you're really funny. We went to the countryside to develop rural areas. Even if our abilities are limited and we are far from being able to develop rural areas, we should at least do our best to avoid making mistakes."

"Making contributions is also contributing to the countryside, not just to the educated youth settlement!"

"Besides, what contributions have you made?"

"Standing here, righteously lecturing me?"

When Yuzhen saw that Wan Chun'er had been rebuked, she wanted to say something, but Shen Lijuan stopped her.

Seeing Yuzhen looking at her, Shen Lijuan whispered, "Don't worry about this. It's not something you can handle. Just do your own thing."

Yuzhen broke free from Shen Lijuan's grasp and ran ahead, shouting, "Gu Bin, how could you say that about Chun'er? In this unfamiliar place, we educated youth must unite. It's not easy for us to come together from all over the country..."

Gu Bin interrupted her directly, and then launched into a barrage of words, "Yes, it's not easy, so did I say anything?"

"It was your best friend who was picking on me from beginning to end, not me picking on you!"

"I didn't get enough of the bargains, so this guy's picking a fight with me!"

"You guys are ridiculous!"

"And he even calls himself a cultured scholar!"

"Since we've come this far, I might as well tell you straight: I can give my things to whomever I want, even to the villagers, but not to you!"

"Also, what's wrong with me eating at Xie Yan's house? If you can find someone like Xie Yan who will take you in for a meal, then go find him!"

"Besides, to put it bluntly, the food you guys cook makes me want to throw up every time I eat it."

"How did you manage to make perfectly good food taste like dishwater?"

These words struck a nerve with the female educated youth. Those who had initially remained indifferent couldn't stand it any longer and started cursing!

A chaotic battle at the educated youth settlement officially began.

In the end, Gu Bin single-handedly drove away the other educated youths by scolding them.

I've offended them all!

Even Liu Yihong, the older brother, was getting a headache watching this.

He looked at Gu Bin helplessly, "Brother, can't you, a grown man, be a little more considerate?"

"We will all be living in the same compound from now on."

"Look what's happened! I'd like to see how you're going to get along with the educated youth settlement from now on!!"

Gu Bin was indifferent, spreading his hands. "What can I do? Just sit there and let them insult me ​​and smear me?"

"Impossible! I, Gu Bin, can eat anything, but I can't stand being taken advantage of!"

"They ate a lot of the food I gave them before!"

"They don't seem to remember a single good thing I did for them!"

"From now on, things will remain the same; anyway, I don't have much interaction with them."

Liu Yihong gestured with his eyes, indicating that there were others involved! The initial source of discontent wasn't actually the female educated youth, but rather the male educated youth.

Don't assume that's all there is to men!

Their jealousy is equally intense!

It would have been fine if it were just a thank-you banquet.

Everyone knows that he only got his current life by marrying Yu Yuehui. Yu Yuehui was a woman that all men avoided like the plague. Xie Yan's marriage to her was ridiculed not only by the educated youth but also by the people of Xiliu Village.

Xie Yan was a homebody to begin with, and during that period, whenever he went out, he was inevitably subjected to strange looks.

Men, women, young and old, often cricketed at him in front of Xie Yan.

Some children even danced right up to Xie Yan's table.

Even if Xie Yan didn't care, those harsh words would still affect his mood, so he generally wouldn't go out unless absolutely necessary.

Because he is so low-key, many people tend to overlook him.

But Gu Bin is different. He is rich, handsome, and good at getting along with people. In just a short time since he came to the countryside, he has become one of the villagers.

Now he's even going to Xie Yan's house to eat with her.

Such a high profile will surely cause dissatisfaction among others, won't it?

If you use words to provoke others in your daily life, conflicts will inevitably arise over time.

Female educated youth are more emotional, so it's easy to stir up their emotions.

Gu Bin glanced at the people opposite him with disdain. "They? I really don't take them seriously at all. If it doesn't work out, I'll just move out. What's there to be afraid of?"

"Do you expect me to lower myself for their sake? No way!"

Gu Bin was never born to be subservient!

When it came to moving out, Gu Bin was genuinely tempted.

Given how bad his relationship with the educated youth settlement is now, living together again would not only make them dislike each other, but also feel uncomfortable!

Moving out is also a good option.

It's uncertain when he'll be able to go back. Given his grandfather's stubbornness, it will take him at least three to five years to return. In that case, it would be better for him to move out and live elsewhere, which would be more convenient and less troublesome.

but·····

"This isn't convenient either!" Xie Yan only remembered that his backpack was still on the shelf after sweeping halfway through. He sighed and climbed back up to take it down with great reluctance.

I picked up the backpack and then slid down again.

Xie Yan was puzzled. Since the leaves were to be swept down the mountain and carried on their backs anyway, why not just leave them at the foot of the mountain from the beginning? Yu Yue replied that it was for convenience, but he genuinely felt that it wasn't convenient either!

Yu Yuehui patiently explained, "We came up the way over there; there's no path on this side where we're sweeping leaves."

"If we leave the backpack at the foot of the mountain, we'll have to go back all the way and take a detour to the other side to climb the mountain!"

Xie Yan understood; that's where the convenience lay!

After that, he would sweep a section clean and then pull the frame down a section.

They swept all the way down to the foot of the mountain, collecting three huge piles of leaves. The third pile was so tall it looked like a small mountain, almost completely covering a patch of wasteland below. Looking at all those leaves, Xie Yan felt a surge of pride.

In the past, he would never have imagined that he would be so capable.

Standing atop the tree, gazing at the leaves, Xie Yan nodded in satisfaction, exuding a sense of triumph, as if he had conquered an entire empire.

Yu Yue had already tied up a whole rack of leaves on the ground when she turned around and found Xie Yan still grinning foolishly. There was only a barren mountain and leaves, and she didn't know what he was so happy about.

Although she didn't understand, she still respected his happiness!

Shaking his head, he tied up the other frame. "Xiao Yan, hurry up and get down and carry it. Stop looking!"

Xie Yan turned his head and saw the two bundles of leaves already tied up. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Wife, you're amazing!"

Yu Yuehui pulled him down from below, "Come down quickly, stop praising me. This is something anyone can do, what's so amazing about it!"

Xie Yan shook his head, "No! Look at me, I can't do it!"
