Su Qingmeng realized that Lin Xiuyao was teasing him.

She carefully examined the man in front of her. He had peach blossom eyes, deep brows, a high nose bridge, and a slightly raised mouth. When he smiled, he looked very handsome. His appearance was her ideal type.

Su Qingmeng looked at him for a long time. Lin Xiuyao became a little nervous and his palms began to sweat.

"Next time, I have to hurry to ride the ox cart, so I don't have enough time." Su Qingmeng had a little liking for him, but she still needed to spend more time with him.

Lin Xiuyao was somewhat pleased that Su Qingmeng didn't refuse him. He said, "I came here by bicycle. I'll take you back after the movie."

Su Qingmeng refused. What a joke! If she rode Lin Xiuyao's bike back today, people in the team would start spreading the word that they were dating tomorrow.

In this day and age, girls can't easily sit on the back of a boy's bicycle. They had just started dating, and Su Qingmeng didn't want others to misunderstand her.

Su Qingmeng went to ride the ox cart by herself. The one driving the ox cart was a Red Army soldier. When she came, no one else was there. Su Qingmeng chatted with the uncle and listened to him talk about his glorious past of helping the Red Army transport supplies. It was quite interesting.

About half an hour later, everyone arrived and the oxcart set off. Su Qingmeng sat in the "co-pilot" seat, listening to the gossip of the aunts and sisters-in-law behind her. They talked about how a man and a widow were hiding in a corn pile, or how a sister-in-law and her brother-in-law were having an affair. Married women were known for their outspokenness in their conversations.

Su Qingmeng always wore a hat when she went out and covered herself tightly. It was not until the ox cart arrived at Songjiang Brigade that several aunts discovered her.

Aunt Cuihua, who was in the same team with her, said awkwardly, "Hey, Su Zhiqing, so you are here?" The young educated youth didn't say a word. They thought there were no unmarried girls on the bus and didn't pay attention to what she said.

Su Qingmeng said, "Aunt Cuihua, I fell asleep and just woke up." Indeed, she listened to the gossip with her eyes closed.

As they walked towards the village, an auntie came over and tried to pull at her backpack. "Su Zhiqing, what did you buy?" Su Qingmeng quickly grabbed her wrist.

"These are all things my family mailed to me. What did you buy, Auntie? Let me see it too." She said with a smile.

"I didn't buy anything, I didn't buy anything," the old lady said, withdrawing her hand awkwardly. Seeing that she was not easy to deal with, she walked to the other side. Others began to make fun of her. "Are you frustrated? You've been taking advantage of others all day long."

Su Qingmeng kept smiling. Others thought she was a tough girl with a thick skin.

It was time to get off work, and when I returned to the educated youth camp, most of the educated youth were there. Zhang Fang saw Su Qingmeng come in and said, "Su Qingmeng, where are you coming from?"

Su Qingmeng said, "My family mailed me a package, and I went to the commune to pick it up." She decided to go to the commune once a month to "pick up the package", which could not only cover up the supplies in the space, but also create an image of being loved by her family.

Be prepared for a rainy day and consider whether you can bear the consequences if someone wants to take advantage of you.

Several female educated youth showed envious expressions. Not only could their families not support them, but sometimes they even had to ask them for money and food.
