"Serves him right!" He Liping said angrily.
After saying that, he sighed and said, "But in truth, this matter has little to do with Bai Qian. The worst ones are actually her parents. Her whole family is wicked to the core!"
Shiyue nodded silently to herself.
"That's right, we discussed it later and felt that Bai Qian, while she has her own little schemes, isn't really that bad. She was just ruined by her family."
Qian Feiyue said this, then looked at He Lixuan, then at Shiyue, and said, "Bai Qian got married. She married Li Wantian from the team."
"Li Wantian?"
Shi Yue and He Lixuan asked in unison.
“Yes, Li Wantian.” Qian Feiyue nodded.
The couple couldn't believe their ears for a moment, and both showed expressions of shock.
He Liping, who was standing to the side, was also stunned and asked, "Who is Li Wantian? From the Qianjin Brigade? Did Bai Qian marry into the brigade? No, how old is that girl this year? Is she an adult?"
“She should be an adult by now. She’s a year younger than Si Yueling, and she’s nineteen this year,” Qian Feiyue said.
He Liping clicked his tongue a few times, looking as if he couldn't understand Bai Qian's decision.
But he wasn't the only one who didn't understand.
Shi Yue and He Lixuan couldn't believe their ears!
Li Wantian is the son of Li Yousheng, who used to be in charge of the livestock shed in the team.
It's the family where He Lixuan and Jiang Dong stayed before.
Back then, Li Wantian was a strong young man, but unfortunately, he broke his leg while working one year and became disabled.
The year after he became lame, his wife died in childbirth, leaving him with a son.
Originally disabled and with a son, Li Wantian never found a wife again.
He has been living with his parents all these years.
He couldn't go to work and couldn't earn work points.
His mother was lazy and didn't work as much as she took time off in a year, so she didn't earn much money.
In addition, there was a child who was only four or five years old.
The entire burden of the family rested on his father, Li Yousheng.
One family was known as one of the poorest in the team.
Who is Bai Qian?
She was an educated young woman with political awareness, and she was also young and not ugly. Why would she choose to marry someone as useless as Li Wantian?
This is like playing with your whole life!
Qian Feiyue naturally understood everyone's thoughts, after all, they were also shocked at the time.
He explained on Bai Qian's behalf, "Bai Qian was also tricked by her parents."
He glanced at the He brothers and said, "I only heard it from others, and I'm not really sure if it's true or not."
It's said that after your family left, someone went to Bai Qian's father's workplace to report the situation, saying that he was slandering military family members or something, and as a result, the workplace wanted to take action against him.
As a result, Bai Qian's father became afraid. Later, for reasons unknown, her father agreed to a marriage on her behalf, saying that she would marry that secretary of the Revolutionary Committee as his second wife.
They also said that the Party Secretary promised that as long as she agreed to get married, they would find a way to get her back to normal life and not have to wait in line anymore. They also said they could arrange a new job for her father.
This was told to us by Si Yueling. The main thing is that Bai Qian received the letter from home that day and immediately started crying at the brigade headquarters; she cried so hard it was terrifying!
It was Si Yueling who helped her back.
Later, we pressed Si Yueling for details, and she told us.
Si Yueling said that Bai Qian said she knew that Party Secretary; he was two years older than her father, probably almost sixty. She said that she had always called him "Uncle" when they met before.
Bai Qian said she would rather die than go back; she would rather stay in the countryside her whole life than marry that old man!
Even though Shiyue disliked Bai Qian, she couldn't help but feel angry when she heard about this.
She immediately said, "If you don't want to get married, then don't go back. There's no need to ruin yourself like that!"
If Bai Qian is willing to stay in the countryside for the rest of her life, she can naturally choose a suitable person to marry at her own pace.
Even if she ends up marrying into a farming family, there are good young men in the countryside, and she can still have a good life with the right person.
Even if she was angry with her family, she wouldn't have gone so far as to randomly grab someone to marry.
Qian Feiyue sighed, looking mature beyond his years, and said, "It's not that simple. No wonder Bai Qian's family is no good!"
After Bai Qian had a good cry at Si Yueling's place, she went to Captain Sun that very night and said she wanted to find someone in the team to marry, asking the captain to help her find someone.
Si Yueling said that Bai Qian's family had accepted a bride price and promised to arrange a job for her father. With these two things, her parents were able to storm the village, knock her unconscious, and carry her away.
If her family is determined to cause trouble at the team, given her popularity within the team, there won't be anyone who genuinely helps her.
If her mother were to act crazy and cause a scene here, the team would probably be more than happy to kick her out.
"If I go back then, my life will truly be over!"
Qian Feiyue stopped there and didn't continue.
Even though he didn't say it, everyone could understand what would happen next.
Given Bai Qian's situation, no matter how good her personal qualities are, no young man in the team would be willing to marry her.
There are too many unstable factors!
Even if she were as beautiful as a flower, no one would want to marry her. They would live in constant fear that she would be taken away by her family.
But Li Wantian was different.
He has nothing left, and there's really no chance he'll ever be able to get married again in his lifetime.
If there is nothing to lose, then there is nothing to fear.
To put it bluntly, their family actually benefited from keeping Bai Qian.
Even if we can't keep them, we won't suffer any losses.
Moreover, Li Wantian's mother was a notorious shrew, known throughout the team for her recklessness.
She's really not afraid of Bai Qian's family.
No matter what, this Forward Brigade is their territory!
Having figured this out, Shiyue felt that she understood a little bit of Bai Qian's mentality in being willing to marry Li Wantian.
Although Li Wantian is indeed disabled in one leg, he is actually quite good-looking.
The key is that he's young! He's only twenty-five this year.
Although she is a bit timid, Bai Qian has a strong personality.
If the two really get married, their personalities might actually complement each other.
Perhaps, if they manage things well, the two of them can make it work.
Shiyue thought this to herself, but in reality, she didn't really believe it.
But things have already come to this, so how can an outsider make a judgment?
She could only take a deep breath and change the subject.
She continued, "So now the only female educated youth at the settlement is Chu Xia?"
The thought of that little girl living all alone filled Shiyue with deep sympathy.
"No, Chu Xia moved out and went back to live at the brigade leader's house. Now there are only a few of us male educated youths left at the educated youth settlement."
"Once I left and Ye Pu'an returned to the city, there were only three people left at the educated youth settlement."
"Ye Pu'an has returned to the city?"
