After breakfast, Yun Huaying took some gifts from the cabinet, and also took out two bags of good tea and a bag of fresh oranges that Grandpa Han liked from the space, and went to the Han family before going to work.
Grandpa Han was about to go out when he saw her coming over and smiled: "Huaying, I heard that you caught a cold on the road. Are you feeling better?"
"Grandpa Han, I'll be fine after a night's rest."
Yun Huaying originally wanted to come last night, but was afraid that she would infect the two elderly people with her cold, so she didn't come.
"What are you doing with all these things?" Grandpa Han refused directly and waved his hand at her: "Take them back and eat them yourself."
"Grandpa Han, this is what my uncle and aunt prepared. They were able to leave the farm safely thanks to your and Grandma Han's help. Now it's not convenient for them to come here to thank you in person, so they can only let me bring some gifts to express my gratitude first."
Grandpa Han smiled and glanced at his grandson who was following behind her. He said with a smile, "I heard from Zhengzi that you two are already officially dating. You will be a family from now on. There's no need to be so polite among family members."
Yun Huaying had a shy look on her face, but she still insisted on giving the gift to the elders. She stuffed the heavy bag into Han Zheng's hands and said, "Please put it in grandpa and grandma's room."
"Okay." Han Zheng smiled and accepted it on behalf of his elder.
Grandma Han had just been washing dishes in the kitchen. She had also been helping with work in the fields during this time. She put on her straw hat, closed the door, said a few words to Yun Huaying, and followed them to get the farm tools to work.
Yun Huaying also prepared some gifts for the families of the village cadres, a bag of candied dates and a bag of dried kelp for each family. The gifts were not very expensive, but they were her thoughtful gestures.
The four village cadres all accepted the gifts with a smile, and some asked about her family affairs with concern. Although Fang Ziqiang's final outcome was not glorious and had a bad impact on her, Yun Huaying did not hide anything and told them the whole ending of him, Li Hongxia and the Fang family frankly.
Zhang Lin came over when everyone gathered. She had heard a lot from the members of the Dongjiang Brigade about Yun Huaying's family recently. When she learned that her father had a death row inmate, an obvious sneer flashed across her face.
"Hello, Comrade Han. Long time no see."
Han Zheng was accompanying Yun Huaying when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. The voice seemed familiar. He turned around and looked at the person. He felt like he had seen them somewhere before, but couldn't place it for a moment. "Who are you?"
Seeing that he didn't even recognize her, Zhang Lin felt a little embarrassed. "Comrade Han, I'm Zhang Lin. When you came here to visit your family, we took the same bus."
Han Zheng now remembered that it was the female educated youth who had smeared pungent perfume on her body, but her appearance had changed a lot compared to more than two months ago, so he didn't recognize her because he always had a photographic memory.
They had only met on the school bus and were not familiar with each other. Han Zheng nodded calmly and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you go to another production team?"
"I've been transferred to the Dongjiang Brigade now."
Zhang Lin was delighted to see that he still remembered her. Yun Huaying turned and looked at him. She was still as beautiful as when they first met, and her smile had faded a lot. "Yun Zhiqing, I heard that you've been dealing with your father's affairs. I just heard you say that your father was executed. Now that your background is so special, you should probably leave here too."
"Who told you Huaying is leaving here?" Han Zheng's voice became a little colder.
"Well, Yun Zhiqing has a father who is a death row inmate. According to the classification, he belongs to the five black categories. She shouldn't stay here anymore. The Youth League Office should issue a notice soon." Zhang Lin said in a neither loud nor soft voice.
Before Han Zheng and Yun Huaying could speak, Jiang Yuan spoke first, "Zhang Lin, if you don't understand the situation, stop talking nonsense here. And stop being sarcastic. It's not your place to meddle in Yun Huaying's affairs. If you have the time for that, you should take care of yourself."
"Jiang Yuan, I'm not talking to you, why are you butting in?" Zhang Lin was unhappy when he saw her.
"Yun Huaying is my friend, so of course I have to stand up for my friend."
Jiang Yuan was usually easygoing and polite with others, but she had a bad attitude towards Zhang Lin. She sarcastically mocked her, "Yun Huaying was unlucky enough to have such a scumbag father, but you're not much better off. Your father is a scumbag, your mother is a bitch, your two sisters are no good either, and you yourself are shameless. You just mentioned the five black categories. If you really care about it, your whole family would belong to the five black categories. You should be the first one to be transferred."
"You..." Zhang Lin's face changed color on the spot.
"What am I talking about? Others may not know your family's situation, but I do. You'd better watch your mouth and stop playing tricks here. And listen to me, Yun Huaying is my friend. If you keep talking about her father, don't blame me for exposing your family's secrets."
Jiang Yuan snorted coldly after she finished speaking, and deliberately pulled Yun Huaying and Lin Shan away, "She is not a good person, don't get close to her, she will dirty your bodies if you get close to her."
"Jiang Yuan." Zhang Lin gnashed her teeth in anger, and her pretty face turned the color of liver.
"What are you yelling about? Your family's bad reputation is well-known back home, and now it's spread here. You still have the nerve to yell. If I were you, I would just find a hemp rope and hang myself in the mountains."
Jiang Yuan rolled her eyes at her and dragged the two sisters off to find the scorekeeper to get the farm tools. As they passed the team leader, she said, "Team leader, bring this guy back to the team. The Dongjiang team got a rice mill for free, but forget about getting the Advanced Collective title this year."
Zhao Xuelin had regretted it a long time ago, but there was no medicine for regret in the world. He couldn't refuse the arrangement from the Youth League Office, so he had to grit his teeth to stop the quarrel between them and assign Zhang Lin the dirtiest job: "Zhang Lin, you continue to herd cattle and clean the cowshed."
"Captain, I haven't done anything wrong since I came to the Dongjiang Brigade. Why do you assign easy work to them but dirty work to me?" Zhang Lin said as he cast a resentful look at Han Zheng.
Grandma Han was standing next to her grandson and happened to see her look. She frowned and said, "Zhang Zhiqing, is there something wrong with your eyes?"
Zhang Lin: "...What are you talking about?"
She came to the production team and met this mother-in-law, but she didn't know her identity, nor did she know that she was Han Zheng's grandmother, so her tone was not very good when she answered her.
"There's a saying that the eyes are the windows to the soul. I think Zhang Zhiqing's eyes are seriously ill. He can't even look people straight in the eye, he only looks sideways. I think you should take some time off and see a doctor."
Grandma Han spoke slowly, but her meaning was clear. After she finished speaking, without even looking at her ugly face, she said to Han Zheng who was standing on the other side: "Zhengzi, how to get a wife? I don't need grandma to teach you, right?"
Grandma suddenly changed the subject and Han Zheng was stunned and didn't react.
Grandpa Han kicked him in the calf and said angrily, "Why are you still standing here like an idiot? Huaying just agreed to date you, and she just recovered from her cold. Hurry up and help with the work."
