Chapter 139: Keep your distance



Some what brother?

This statement really makes people think a lot.

Most of the people present were female comrades, and now everyone looked at Liu Xiu with strange eyes. She did not return home last night and was staying at a guy's house in the county town?

Judging from what Yun Huaying said, it must not be a relative's family. It turns out that she has a lover in the county town.

Seeing everyone looking at her like that, Liu Xiu said angrily, "That's my cousin's house. I went to knock on my cousin's door. I also stayed at my cousin's house last night."

"Oh, so that's your cousin's house."

Yun Huaying pretended to understand, but her next words made Liu Xiu's expression change immediately. "Your cousin's house is quite lively. I was passing by there and happened to see a fight in your cousin's yard. I didn't count carefully, but there were at least seven or eight grown men. Are they all your cousins?"

Seeing that she had actually witnessed the fight, Liu Xiu's eyes flickered and he hurriedly explained, "They are my cousin's colleagues, from the same factory transport team. They rented that house, and every month when they do long-distance transport, they would stay here for two or three days to rest."

"Is that so?" Yun Huaying believed she was telling the truth, but it had nothing to do with her. She added softly, "A room full of men is living there, and you, a single lesbian, are living with them. Should I say you're heartless or careless?"

"It's not what you think. They were all injured in the fight yesterday, so I stayed there to take care of them."

No matter how stupid Liu Xiu was, she knew the importance of a female comrade's reputation. If she was misunderstood, the spit of those gossipy women in the team would drown her.

Yun Huaying raised her brows slightly, and said with a half-smile, "Liu Zhiqing, your cousin and his gang were fighting in a group. I happened to be standing at the door when I saw them getting severely beaten. It seems like they provoked someone they shouldn't have, and they were all beaten so badly that they couldn't even get up. They probably haven't called the police yet. Do you want me to go to the Public Security Bureau for you? I just sent that scumbag from my family there, and I've made friends with Director Liao of the Public Security Bureau. I have nothing better to do now, so I can kindly help you run the trip."

It was true that Liu Xiu was a chatterbox and incompetent. His expression changed and he was extremely panicked: "Don't meddle with me."

"If I don't have to meddle in your affairs, then you'd better not meddle in my affairs either."

Yun Huaying's expression slowly turned cold, her eyes extremely sharp. "Watch your mouth, don't provoke me, and don't act like a clown in front of me. If you annoy me, I don't mind going to the Public Security Bureau and asking them to invite those bastard cousins of yours to come over for tea and silver bracelets."

"Yun Huaying, what do you mean?" Liu Xiu's voice suddenly soared.

"Your idiotic cousin, what kind of person is he? Quite a few people in the county should know him. Judging from the beating they received yesterday, he must have provoked a lot of people. If I spread the word about your cousin relationship in the county, you're probably going to have a hard time."

Liu Xiu and Yao Dachun are indeed cousins, and she knows a little about what her cousin is doing in the county. If Yun Huaying really publicizes their relationship, she will definitely be targeted by those in the county who have been bullied by her cousin.

Thinking of this, he had to give up the idea of finding fault and said viciously: "I won't find fault with you again, and you don't mind my business. Let's keep our distance from each other in the future."

"You'd better remember what you said. If you can't control your mouth one day, don't blame me for going to your cousin's house in the county town and telling him about his cousin who is an educated youth here." Yun Huaying warned coldly.

Liu Xiu was hit by her weakness and glared at her angrily. He didn't want to argue with her anymore and pushed through the crowd and rushed into the meeting room.

Seeing that Liu Xiu, the cancer of the Educated Youth Institute, had been defeated by her, and thinking about what she had done to her biological father during the day, everyone decided that she was also a ruthless character who must not be provoked. There were two people who had been gossiping about her before, but now they didn't dare to say anything in front of her.

Yun Huaying didn't care about anyone else, as long as they didn't bother her. She followed Lin Xiaolan and the others in and took a seat.

Tonight's meeting was indeed about school matters. The team leader and Secretary Tian had been constantly on the move these past few days, wooing the two production teams on the other side of the river with the promise of jointly developing the tofu industry, earning their support. The Nanwan Brigade, however, operated a large sand quarry, and their location wasn't ideal for a school. They also didn't get along with the Nanzhu Brigade, so they offered to give the Dongjiang Brigade a thumbs-up and voted for them.

They went to the commune for a meeting this afternoon. Secretary Li of the commune had already informed them of the exact location of the school in Dongjiang Brigade, so the meeting tonight was to announce this good news.

After Zhao Xuelin finished speaking, warm applause broke out in the conference room.

"We're going to be hiring workers for the school construction, including masons and carpenters, as well as cooks for the cafeteria. The commune will be responsible for recruiting people. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin next week, though the exact date hasn't been decided yet. The team will send out a notice and you can go and sign up yourself. The team won't organize the recruitment."

"Okay." Everyone smiled happily.

"Captain, our commune has built a school, so we should recruit teachers, right?" Wang Huiyu stood up and raised her hand to ask.

"We definitely need to recruit teachers, but it's not up to our team to decide. The commune will make the arrangements. You educated youth are all educated, so you can fill out the forms and sign up when the time comes. I estimate that teacher recruitment won't be until the end of the year, so you can read more during this time to review any missed lessons."

"Okay, thank you, Captain."

Wang Huiyu wants to teach in school, but she knows that the number of places is limited, so she can only work harder during this period.

Not only did she have this idea, but other educated youth who didn't have a stable job also had this idea. Even Liu Xiu and Liu Ping were ready to try, but when they thought about the disciplinary action they had been given by the team leader during this period, they felt very upset and rarely felt any regret.

Then I thought about the three new female educated youth. They all have high school education and higher cultural level than them. They have performed well in the team during this period. The last time they gave ideas to the team, they left a good impression on the village cadres. The three of them will definitely sign up, and the possibility of being selected is very high.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu was filled with anger, but thinking of Yun Huaying's warning just now, he had to suppress his anger.

"Liu Xiu, I really don't want to do farm work anymore. It's too hard. Do you have any good ideas for me to be selected as a teacher?"

Liu Ping had no ability and no support at home, but he had ideas and ambitions, so he had to encourage Liu Xiu to help.

"What can I do?" Liu Xiu said with a sullen face, pretending to look down on him. "Becoming a teacher in this newly built school means working tirelessly with children every day, and the monthly salary is so little, not even enough to buy me two sets of clothes. I don't want it. If you want to go, find a way yourself."

Liu Ping curled her lips as she listened. Just now, when the team leader mentioned recruiting teachers, she saw the light in Liu Xiu's eyes. He obviously wanted to grab a spot, but he was still pretending.
