Chen Shuning wasn't sure whether to call herself lucky or unlucky.
Her misfortune was that, having had a stable job and a prosperous life, she lost her life in a fire at a newly opened la...
Turning past the front of the old house was Chen Shuning's room. After a busy day, Chen Shuning was a little tired. After saying a quick goodbye to Gu Xinyi, she opened the door and went inside. Intending to take a good bath to relax, Chen Shuning locked the door and entered her spatial dimension as soon as she entered the room, so naturally she did not hear any strange noises.
However, Gu Xinyi's room was at the very end, so she had to pass by everyone else's rooms. The other rooms were fine, but when she passed Yang Wanqiu's room, Gu Xinyi seemed to faintly hear some suppressed groans.
Because the noise was very low, and Yang Wanqiu's room was sandwiched between two newlywed rooms, she thought that the two couples had been chased back by everyone long ago. Although the lights in both rooms were on at the moment, it was hard to say whether someone would prefer to have the light on.
Although Gu Xinyi had a few relationships in her previous life, she was still somewhat conservative in that regard and remained very pure. Although she would sometimes secretly watch adult films, she had no real experience.
So when Gu Xinyi heard what sounded like... well, she didn't think too much about it. Instead, she blushed and covered her ears, lowered her head, and ran back to her room.
Perhaps because everyone was tired after two busy days, or perhaps because no one wanted to disturb the two newlywed couples' wedding night, the educated youth compound was very quiet that night.
However, the second day at the educated youth compound was not so peaceful.
Since they didn't have to work, and both men and women had drunk some alcohol at yesterday's banquet, no one wanted to get up too early the next day.
Around 7 a.m., almost everyone was awakened by a deafening scream.
Wang Wenfang, who had a fight with Wang Wenqi and Zhong Lingling, did not attend their wedding yesterday. Even though Wang Wenqi and Zhong Lingling came to invite her several times, Wang Wenfang did not agree. She stayed in the house all day and did not go out. Even her meals were prepared and delivered to her house by Yang Wanqiu.
The others knew her temper; since even her brother and sister-in-law couldn't get her to come out, no one else wanted to embarrass themselves. So, for the entire day, no one paid attention to whether she had appeared or not, and naturally, no one noticed that something had happened to her.
When everyone arrived at Yang Wanqiu's room following the screams, they saw Wang Wenfang, disheveled, and Shen Wenge, who had obviously just been woken up.
However, Yang Wanqiu, the owner of the house who should have been inside, came from the front yard with other female educated youth who were watching the commotion, rubbing her eyes and looking completely bewildered.
Everyone immediately understood what was happening at a glance. Upon hearing Wang Wenfang's shout, the first person to rush over saw the scene and grabbed Shen Wenge by the hair, giving him a good beating.
You should know that Shen Wenge was not wearing any clothes at the moment. He was suddenly pulled out of bed by Wang Wenqi, and instinctively he held onto the quilt tightly to cover himself.
But his tug had a serious effect; Wang Wenfang, who was also only covered by the only quilt on the kang (a heated brick bed), was suddenly exposed to the elements.
Although Wang Wenfang wasn't completely naked like Shen Wenge, she was only wearing a small vest. Without the blanket to cover her, it was practically the same as being naked.
The sudden chill instantly snapped Wang Wenfang, who had been crying uncontrollably, back to her senses. Looking at the people around her and then down at her own body, she was so ashamed and angry that she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Zhong Lingling was the first to react. She quickly took off her padded jacket and covered Wang Wenfang with it. Then she hurriedly pushed the male educated youths who were still watching the commotion out of the house.
Of course, in this situation, most men would have already voluntarily left; only a few who like to take advantage would wait for others to kick them out.
At this moment, Wang Wenqi, who had just been fighting fiercely, was pulled away by the other female educated youths. He was glaring angrily at Shen Wenge, looking like he wanted to kill him.
Chen Shuning arrived a little late because she was too lazy to light the stove after taking a shower last night.
When she entered the room, Shen Wenge was already bruised and swollen from being beaten, while Wang Wenfang, who had just fainted, woke up after being shouted at and pinched in the philtrum by a group of female educated youths.
Seeing Wang Wenfang huddled under the covers, sobbing uncontrollably, everyone felt a pang of sadness.
Although Wang Wenfang's personality wasn't very likable, everyone knew how important a young woman's chastity was in that era.
Knowing this, everyone felt even more sorry for Wang Wenfang, who was crying her heart out on the kang (a heated brick bed), and at the same time hated Shen Wenge, who was huddled at the foot of the kang, hastily putting on his clothes.
Finally, Liu Shumei pulled Zhong Lingling aside and whispered, "Lingling, what's done is done. Crying and getting angry won't solve anything. You should try to persuade Wang Zhiqing to calm down. This kind of thing needs to be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise Wenfang will be in trouble."
Although Liu Shumei didn't finish her sentence, everyone in the room understood that in this day and age, a girl who had lost her chastity either had to marry the person who caused her to lose her chastity, or she might only have death as her only option.
Otherwise, you'll be drowned in the spittle of those around you.
Of course, if conditions permit, you can find a place where no one knows you to start a new life, but this requires a strong heart and family support.
Why do I say this? Because in such a special era, you needed a letter of introduction even to stay in a hotel, let alone a sent-down youth like Wang Wenfang. Without a letter of introduction, it would be difficult to even leave this small county town, let alone live in other places.
