With the tractor, the Victory Brigade completed the task of paying public grain exceptionally well.

Every year, paying the public grain tax to the town was a big challenge for the members of Shengli Brigade. Even if all the men, women, and children in the village worked together from dawn to dusk, they might not be able to pay the public grain tax in one go.

With the tractor, paying the grain tax is much more convenient. The elderly and children do not have to go to the town. The tractor can make more trips and people can make fewer trips. The grain tax can be paid in most of the day.

Bao Zhiguo breathed a sigh of relief. Every year he was the leader, carrying a full load of grain and walking at the front of the grain delivery team to cheer everyone up.

But time is merciless. He is almost fifty years old and his health is not as good as when he was young. After delivering food, his waist feels broken and his shoulders are swollen for several days.

This time with a tractor, he no longer had to carry the grain himself. He could just drive the ox cart to the grain station, saving a lot of time.

After returning to Shengli Brigade, Bao Zhiguo specially held a meeting in the production team compound and praised Jiang Yan by name.

"If it weren't for the educated youth Xiao Jiang who borrowed the tractor, my old bones would have been broken for several days."

After paying the public grain tax, the heavy stone in everyone's heart was lifted and they were in the mood to laugh and joke. After hearing what Bao Zhiguo said, they all laughed softly.

"Xiao, how can you be better than me? If it weren't for the educated youth Xiao Jiang, wouldn't everyone be carrying food now?"

That's true.

"Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, is really capable. He lent us such a valuable item as a tractor just as soon as he asked."

"Besides, I have never seen a woman as capable as Xiao Jiang Zhiqing who can drive a tractor in the whole country."

They have seen a lot of drivers, but no one has ever seen a female driver. Of course, what is said in newspapers and on the radio does not count, as they have never seen it with their own eyes.

Xu Qiuxia hid in the corner, looking at Jiang Yan with an extremely vicious look.

How could this woman be so lucky? How could she borrow a tractor?

She always believed that Jiang Yan was the murderer who caused her family to be destroyed. Why did she live such a miserable life while Jiang Yan was still at large?

Xu Qiuxia completely forgot that it was her family who first plotted against Jiang Yan! It was her good father Xu Haifeng who used his status to lock Jiang Yan up in the Revolutionary Committee and forced her to agree to marry Xu Tian, ​​the paralytic!

It was her good mother Wei Lifang who colluded with Shi Dalei and Yang Hongying to drug Jiang Yan and make her sleep with Xu Tian, ​​losing her innocence, and thus being forced to marry Xu Tian under pressure from public opinion!

Xu Qiuxia forgot all about it. She only remembered that all the bad luck in her family happened after Jiang Yan went to the countryside, so she blamed everything on Jiang Yan.

If it weren't for Jiang Yan, she would still be living a life of luxury, how could she have gone to the countryside!

Xu Qiuxia's eyes turned red with jealousy. She said angrily, "Who knows how this tractor was borrowed? Maybe she got into some old man's bed..."

The compound suddenly became quiet. The people around Xu Qiuxia looked at her as if she were a fool. They all silently took two steps to the side, staying away from Xu Qiuxia.

Bao Zhiguo looked at her angrily and shouted, "Xu Zhiqing, say what you just said again!"

Xu Qiuxia finally reacted and spoke out what was in her heart!

"I, I..." Xu Qiuxia was about to explain when she saw a figure rushing towards her. Before she could see who that person was, her collar was grabbed by someone, and then she was lifted up and thrown out.

That's right, just throw it out.

Everyone exclaimed, and before Xu Qiuxia could react to what was happening, she fell to the ground.

Dust was flying everywhere. Fortunately, the place where Xu Qiuxia fell was the ground without any stones or bricks, so Xu Qiuxia did not die directly from the fall.

Despite this, Xu Qiuxia still felt as if all the bones in her body were falling apart. She grimaced in pain and was unable to get up for a long time.

"Jiang Yan, are you crazy? You dare to hit me?"

"So what if I beat you up? Who told you to be so mean? I lent the tractor to serve the members, but how come you turned it into something unbearable and dirty in your mouth?" Jiang Yan was furious. "You slandered me and hurt class feelings. How can a person like you be qualified to stay in the Victory Brigade?"

"That's right, just say anything."

"My brain is full of crap."

The sound of people pointing and criticizing made Xu Qiuxia very embarrassed. She endured the pain and got up from the ground, "What does it have to do with you? You have to stand up for her."

Xu Qiuxia had just stood firm when she felt a sharp pain in the crook of her leg, as if something had hit her leg, causing her to lose balance and fall to her knees with a thud.

Xu Qiuxia screamed and cursed: "Who did it, who?"

Just as she was about to get up, Jiang Yan grabbed her shoulders with such force that he almost pressed Xu Qiuxia into the mud. She struggled with all her might but couldn't get free or stand up.

"What are you doing?"

"Xu Qiuxia, have you forgotten something?" Jiang Yan's hands were always on her shoulders. Xu Qiuxia couldn't get up at all and could only kneel.

She knew very well that Jiang Yan was talking about the bet, but Xu Qiuxia didn't want to admit it.

"I don't know what you are talking about, let me go."

Dong Shuang saw that this woman was trying to shirk her debt, so she jumped out immediately, "Xu Qiuxia, Jiang Yan said she wanted to borrow a tractor. What did you say at the time? You said if Jiang Yan could borrow a tractor, you would kneel down and kowtow three times to Jiang Yan to admit your mistake. It's only been two days, and you forgot?"

Chang Li also came out to testify, "That's what happened!"

Bao Zhiguo was so angry that he was about to die. What's wrong with the educated youth sent from Ping'an County? Why are they more crazy than each other?

In front is Xiao Yan, Song Jiaren is not afraid of death, and behind is Xu Qiuxia who doesn't know whether to live or die.

Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, is that someone they can offend casually? How strong is the Peng family? Aren't they more capable than these educated youth? Aren't those who eat peanuts eating peanuts and those who are sent down to the countryside sent down to the countryside?

It was Bao Shengli who told the story about the Peng family.

Su Yun was probably frightened by the second son of the Peng family, so she came to Bao Shengli for help. She knew that it was too late to reverse the situation, but she hoped that Bao Shengli would help her for Xiaobao's sake. Su Yun also said that Jiang Yan was not a simple person at all, and the Peng family's affairs were her handiwork.

Naturally, Bao Shengli would not agree to Su Yun. At that time, he had just been discharged from the hospital and rejected Su Yun on the grounds of recuperating from his injuries. By the way, he told Bao Zhiguo about Jiang Yan and the Xi family.

Bao Zhiguo analyzed it and felt that it should be true. He felt more and more that Jiang Yan was a big shot that ordinary people like them could not see through.

After all, his family background is there! Things change over time, who knows if the Jiang family has any backup plans behind them. Besides, Jiang Yan's uncle was not affected at all, and he is still in the army!

Who gave them the illusion that the educated youth Xiao Jiang was easy to bully? Is there something wrong with their eyes?
