Jiao County.
It has a history of more than 5,000 years. Because it is close to the sea and connected to several nearby counties, it is considered a transportation fortress connecting Shandong Province at home and abroad.
There are 19 communes under its jurisdiction, and Heping Commune, where Bai Ying's team is located, is just a very small one and is not very noticeable.
There are several factories in the county town. Since the main crop in Jiao County is peanuts, the oil press located in Jiao County is the largest among the nearby counties. Needless to say, the workers' welfare benefits are very good, and everyone is jealous of such a good job.
It was a coincidence that Bai Ying's third brother was able to become an employee of the oil mill. It was a rare opportunity...
Considering the importance of things, Bai Ying did not rush to buy a thermometer or food, but went to the oil press where her third brother worked first.
There are thousands of workers in the oil press factory, and the flow of workers going to and from get off work is huge. There is an alley not far from the oil press factory, where many people set up stalls. No tickets are required for transactions, as long as you have money, you can buy it. This is commonly known as the "black market".
When Bai Ying passed by the black market, she rested her legs on the ground and stopped riding her bicycle.
She glanced into the alley and saw grains, vegetables, eggs, cloth and various daily necessities. There was everything for sale there, and Bai Ying was really tempted.
She didn't have any food coupons, so it would be nice if she could buy some fine grains that didn't require coupons from the black market.
Bai Ying paused at the entrance of the black market for only a moment before she suddenly noticed a strange gaze coming from the alley.
She quickly followed the line of sight and saw people coming and going in the alley, everyone doing their own thing. For a moment, she couldn't find who had been looking at her.
Is someone really following her, or is she overthinking it?
Bai Ying frowned. She didn't think her perception was wrong. Considering that she was alone and protecting herself was the most important thing, she did not rashly enter the black market. Instead, she pedaled her bicycle quickly and drove away from the entrance of the black market.
Until Bai Ying's figure disappeared at the entrance, no one noticed that there was one less person behind a stall selling daily necessities.
The woman squatting in front of the stall picked and chose for a while, and finally picked up a small, exquisitely shaped round copper box. She looked up and said, "Boss, I want this one. How much is it... Where is the boss?"
When the woman looked up again, she was shocked to find that the handsome boss who had just invited her to buy things had disappeared.
The next moment, a man with a baby face came over and said with a smile, "He's gone for something so I'll help him watch the stall for a while. You want this one, right? I'll give you a 40-cent discount and sell it to you for six yuan."
"So expensive!" the woman exclaimed.
The baby-faced man assured her confidently, "Sister, the hair oil you picked is the best out there. We imported it from Shanghai. You can't buy it in Shandong Province!"
After some sweet talk from the baby-faced man, the woman was finally moved and gritted her teeth to buy it.
She originally came to pick things out to admire the stall owner's handsome face, but she didn't even have time to take a few glances at the goods, and ended up spending a fortune...
The other side.
Bai Ying finally arrived at the oil press safely.
The strange gaze behind her also disappeared, and Bai Ying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was during working hours, the oil press factory was closed, and there were almost no people coming in or out. For a moment, Bai Ying didn't even have the chance to find someone to help deliver a message.
After waiting outside the door for quite a while, I saw a man in loose work clothes walking out of the factory dormitory, intending to go to the workshop to work. His gait was so nonchalant.
"Comrade!"
Bai Ying shouted loudly while waving at him.
Xiao Yu turned around following the sound. His face was originally full of reluctance, but when he saw Bai Ying's face, his expression instantly brightened up. "Girl, what's the matter with you coming to our factory?"
He quickly quickened his pace and ran to the factory gate, looking at Bai Ying from across the large iron gate with a vertical hole in the middle of the road.
Bai Ying smiled at him and said, "Well, I want to find someone. Could you please call Bai Shuangliang for me?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yu's face fell instantly, and he spoke as if he was checking the household registration, "What is your relationship with Bai Shuangliang?"
Bai Ying didn't know how this person could change his expression in an instant.
The other party got angry when he heard about her third brother. Could it be that her third brother had offended this person?
Bai Ying naturally wouldn't fall in love with someone who doesn't like her. The smile disappeared from her face. "He's my brother."
She still needs to explain, otherwise what if this person spreads rumors about her relationship with the third brother?
Wouldn't that mean Third Brother would really be single? To be honest, Bai Ying never wanted to see Third Brother single again.
"Bai Shuangliang is your brother? A biological brother?" Xiao Yu looked Bai Ying up and down, his eyes not eyes, his nose not nose. "You two don't look alike. I think you are foster sisters! You say you are foster sisters, but you are not actually romantic sisters."
Bai Ying was so surprised that she blinked.
Should we call this person stupid or smart? He even spread obscene rumors right in front of her. Does he think she has a good temper and is easy to bully?
Unfortunately, he was wrong.
Bai Ying is not someone who would suffer a loss at all!
Whoever makes her suffer, she will make him eat shit!
"Oh, if you dare, say something else."
"Just say it! I'm asking if you're Bai Shuangliang..."
This time, before Xiao Yu could finish his words, Bai Ying quickly squatted down, picked up a piece of yellow mud, and stuffed it into Xiao Yu's open mouth through the gap in the iron gate.
"Love—ugh, ugh, ugh!"
Xiao Yu retched for a while and quickly spat out the mud in his mouth, but the mud still melted a lot and stuck to his mouth, making it full of dirt and he couldn't spit it out completely.
"You stinky girl!"
Xiao Yu vomited so much that his eyes turned red. He was so angry that he wanted to beat Bai Ying up.
Bai Ying smiled slightly, "If you want to hit me, then come out."
"……you!"
Xiao Yu glanced at the big iron gate that separated him and Bai Ying. In order to prevent workers from being absent from work, the door was closed at work time, and Xiao Yu had no way of climbing out.
In the past, Xiao Yu had never imagined that he would have to climb over a door to get in and out. After all, whenever he wanted to go out and play, he would feign illness and ask for leave, and his superiors would have to respectfully open the door for him (actually, they were afraid that he would get sick and die in the factory). He never thought that this door would become an obstacle for him now...
"Just wait! I don't believe Bai Shuangliang can't cure you!" Xiao Yu walked into the workshop angrily.
Bai Ying blinked her eyes. So, her purpose of wanting Bai Shuangliang to come out to see her was indirectly achieved?
Not bad.
Bai Ying felt relieved instantly and waited patiently for Bai Shuangliang to come and see her.
Not long after, Bai Shuangliang and Xiao Yu really turned back, one in front and one behind.
It wasn't until he reached Bai Ying's side that Xiao Yu spoke proudly, "Bai Shuangliang, quickly take care of your sister. She actually stuffed dirt into my mouth! If you don't care about her, don't blame me for going to the workshop director to seek justice."
Bai Shuangliang didn't even ask Bai Ying why. His tone was full of trust. "My sister is always well-behaved and wouldn't attack someone without a reason. She stuffed dirt into your mouth. You must have said something you shouldn't have said."
