Everyone got up early and started working. The people at the educated youth settlement were preparing for another change because they were anxious about not having enough food.

They were no longer as composed as before. "Why won't you give us food? Why?" The people at the educated youth settlement started to make a fuss when they saw the village chief's letter.

"Aren't you afraid we'll sue you?" he said, looking at the village chief. Upon hearing this, the village chief slammed his old pipe on the table and looked at the educated youth present.

"Fine, go ahead and sue me. I want to see if the government officials above will help you or think I'm right. You're all lazy and good-for-nothings. The country sent you to the countryside to work." The village chief said as he looked at the educated youth.

Seeing that these people were all trying to take advantage of the situation, the young people in the educated youth settlement were already dissatisfied. Upon hearing this, they became unhappy and ran to the commune to report Fengjia Village.

Hearing this, Mu Niannian and the others became somewhat angry. "Fine, we'll sue you right now, and I'll make sure none of you have an easy time," Mu Niannian said, figuring that her stepfather was an official and she wasn't afraid of these farmers.

When Mu Chengcheng stood not far away, her expression was somewhat cold. Mu Niannian was still unaware that her father had already begun to be investigated.

Something bad will happen very soon, so what Mu Niannian is doing right now is tantamount to courting death. She will be heartbroken when her father gets into trouble in the future.

At this moment, the people in these educated youth settlements went to the commune to complain, but they were scolded mercilessly by the commune people. They were scolded just as badly when they went to the town to complain. At this moment, the people in the educated youth settlements also realized that some things were not as they wished to be.

Of course, some people wanted to run away at this time, but the village chief looked at the people present and said, "One of you educated youths has run away, so I'm telling you clearly that if you run away, you will go to jail if you are caught." When they heard this, the faces of all the educated youths turned ugly.

"We want to go back." Someone immediately said, wanting to go back instead of staying here. Upon hearing this, Ji Huangquan merely glanced at these people indifferently, his expression and gaze revealing that he was looking at a fool.

Go back? They really think they can just go back whenever they want? They don't even look at the facts. People who come here can't go back without the government's permission. No matter how much the educated youth in the settlement make a fuss, they can't change the situation of not being given food.

At this time, everyone's face turned pale. In this state of hunger, some people tried to buy things with money, but not everyone had money, so they could only obediently start working.

"I want to go back. I thought I was just here to put on a show," one educated youth said, crying. Another educated youth, however, faced reality and started working hard. The others, who hadn't faced reality, were still crying.

"Why are you crying? What good will crying do? You still won't get any food." A young educated youth working nearby spoke up as he looked at the other person. Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other young educated youth turned somewhat cold.

At this moment, Feng Biluo looked at the other person and a smile appeared on her face. Feng Biluo thought that there was still someone who understood.

The educated youth began to accept their fate, but at that moment, Mu Niannian started looking for her stepfather and made phone calls, saying, "Dad, I want to go back. I don't want to work here anymore. Dad, I can't eat or sleep well."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Mu looked at the phone with a complicated expression. "You're working well there. If you run back alone, you'll go to jail. Even if you don't, being sent back will mean hardship on a farm." And that farm wasn't just any farm; it was a reformed farm.

Upon hearing this, Mu Niannian turned pale. "Dad, aren't you the one who loves me the most? Why won't you let me go back?" But Mu's father ignored her and hung up the phone. He couldn't even bring back his own daughter, let alone his stepdaughter.

More importantly, at this moment, Mu's father had many things to worry about. When he was preoccupied with these things, he had no mind to care about others. At this moment, Mu Niannian was in despair and cried when she went back.

At this moment, tasks were being assigned in the village: "If you don't work, you won't get any food every day from now on." Upon hearing this, the educated youth at the settlement looked grim.

"Why should we? We came here to help you, but you're making us go hungry. Is that fair?" He looked at the village chief and Ji Huangquan and the others and said, "The people from your factory are all from your own village, yet you're making us do farm work. That's going too far."

"Then what can you do?" Upon hearing this, Village Chief Feng spoke up. He had long lost patience with these lazy people who wanted to eat and drink well. "If you're not satisfied, you can go back. I won't keep you here." As he spoke, he directly sent them to the hardest and most tiring jobs.

The people at the educated youth settlement realized something at this moment: they couldn't cause any trouble with the villagers anymore. And it wasn't just the educated youth in Fengjia Village who were being dealt with; the educated youth in other places were in similar situations, having been there for half a year.

Some of the educated youth learned to work, but others did almost nothing, let alone work. However, Feng Biluo only showed a bit of indifference towards those educated youth, and still looked down on them when she saw them working.

What should she say? Feng Biluo knew very well that some of these people were trying every means to go back, because it had only been half a year, and many of them were thinking about going home and hoping to return.

However, after half a year, winter has arrived. "Village chief, when can we go back?" The educated youth at the village headman asked.

The busy farming season is over, so why haven't they heard any news about returning? Upon hearing this, Village Chief Feng said, "This news? Let alone you, I haven't heard of it either." Village Chief Feng's words made these people turn pale.

"Impossible. We came to the countryside to help out. Now that the busy farming season is over, we should go back." Now that the busy farming season is over, everyone wants to go home. However, the village chief looked at those people with a cold and indifferent gaze.

"I told you, I didn't receive any news. If you're unhappy, you can go back yourselves." Looking at the people present, the village chief said, "Why would I lie to you? In this past year, tell me, did you help or did you delay things?"

They're just causing trouble by interfering with their farming. It's just a bunch of troublesome people. Things always seem to go wrong at the educated youth settlement. Today Mu Chengcheng and Mu Niannian are fighting, tomorrow Mu Chengcheng gets into a conflict with someone else, and the day after tomorrow Mu Niannian upsets the men in the village. It's really bad luck.
