"Haha, I don't like beef." Seeing people around looking at them, Wang Chuan had to put away his chopsticks awkwardly.
Ning Xi deliberately exaggerated and said loudly: "Comrade Wang, you don't like beef, but you still want this dish. Isn't this a waste of food? I just saw a lot of people didn't get it!"
He even picked up food for her in public, as if their relationship was complicated.
"Who! Who wasted food?" The uncle sitting in the corner of the restaurant stood up and his loud voice spread to every corner.
Wang Chuan lowered his head and ate his meal in silence without saying a word.
Dai Meng quietly reminded Ning Xi: "He is the one who specializes in cracking down on all kinds of bad behavior in our bureau. You have to avoid him when you see him."
"I understand." Ning Xi shrank her head in pretended fear and concentrated on eating.
......
Yuzhuang Brigade, Tongxiang County, Nanji Province.
The early rice has all been threshed, dried and stored, ready for tax payment. The late rice has also all been planted, and the fields have been watered.
The fields are green everywhere, and it is a new hope.
After the busy farming season, everyone became dark and thin. The members of the cooperative were fine, as they were not white to begin with. But the newly arrived educated youth all looked different, with their skin tanned and shiny like coal.
A few people with tender skin were sunburned.
The only exception is Chu Hongchen, whose face is still fair and rosy, but the baby fat he had when he first came has disappeared, and the edges of his face are beginning to appear.
Xia Zhiwei touched his rough skin and couldn't help feeling jealous. He worked the hardest and earned the most work points. The team leader praised him several times.
But in the beginning, there were still some girls who secretly looked at him, but now when they meet him face to face, they are too lazy to even look at him. Xia Zhiwei feels very miserable. Who says that only girls love beauty? Boys also like to be pretty!
"Sophisticated and tender, so feminine~" Xia Zhiwei couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.
After saying that, he still felt that he was not wrong. A real man should be like him. Although his skin is a little dark, he has a strong body and is very dedicated to his work.
Chu Hongchen was feeling depressed, and he didn't want to endure it any longer after being stabbed by someone. "Are you talking about my mother?"
Xia Zhiwei stiffened his neck, unable to take back his words, so he said shamelessly, "Yeah, I'm talking about you. You have fair skin and a soft voice. If you're not a woman, what are you?"
"Are you so desperate for a mother?" Chu Hongchen glanced at him. "If my voice is soft, I'm calling you mother. If my voice is louder, will you still call me father?"
"You!" Xia Zhiwei's face flushed red.
I didn't hear it at first, but since he was scolding his parents, he was not the one who could endure it, otherwise he wouldn't have said that to Chu Hongchen's mother to her face.
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today." After saying that, he swung his fist towards Chu Hongchen.
The educated youth behind him did not expect him to start fighting as soon as he said so, so they stood up and pulled him back.
“Ouch~!”
With a scream, someone fell to the ground. Unexpectedly, the person who fell was Xia Zhiwei.
The educated youths behind were staring at the scene in amazement.
Although Chu Hongchen is not thin, he is not strong because he is still growing. In contrast, Xia Zhiwei is a typical northern man, tall and strong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is big and strong.
Look at those broad shoulders, I guess he can carry two loads of manure at a time without any problem.
"I just said I wanted to call you dad, and you're already bowing your head? It's a pity that although I'm not a one-in-a-million genius, I also think I'm quite intelligent. I can't give birth to a stupid son like you with strong limbs and a simple mind."
Chu Hongchen kicked Xia Zhiwei again, and it was unknown where he hit the vital part. Xia Zhiwei screamed in pain and couldn't even get up.
Tang Shibin: "Has Xiao Chu practiced it?"
I originally wanted to ask Chu Hongchen for some help. He has become quite famous recently and he must have a lot of good things in his hands.
But he was standing behind Chu Hongchen just now, and saw with his own eyes that he dodged confidently and kicked Xia Zhiwei hard on a certain part of his calf.
Then there was a scene where Xia Zhiwei prostrated himself on the ground. The ground at the educated youth site was muddy, and his mouth was full of dust.
"After a few years of training, you'll be able to defend yourself a little bit."
"Oh, oh, that's good. It's good to know some self-defense." Tang Shibin raised his hand to wipe the non-existent cold sweat and extinguished the idea of taking advantage of others.
"Xiao Xia, you were at fault first, so just apologize to Xiao Chu and let this matter pass. We've come together from all over the country, it's fate, so harmony is the most important thing for us all."
An old educated youth came out to smooth things over.
"Xiao Chu, you can't do anything, just give me some face and apologize to each other. It's no big deal."
"Why didn't you say anything because he was the first to attack?" Chu Hongchen was too lazy to say anything. He knew that the people at the educated youth site had some opinions about him, but they just didn't say it out loud.
Everyone has selfish desires and emotions, and he can understand that.
Last time Ning Xi pushed him out to repair the tractor, and later reporters came to interview him.
Then people from the county came, and the team leader "accidentally" revealed that the tractor broke down as soon as it arrived. His original intention was to give some people a warning to prevent them from causing trouble in the future.
When the leader asked for details, he stumbled upon a coincidence: the county agricultural technology station was in need of maintenance personnel, so he directly asked Chu Hongchen to be there.
So Chu Hongchen has been busy working in various brigades this month, specifically responsible for repairing equipment and solving many problems.
The leaders of the Agricultural Technology Station intend to let Chu Hongchen join as a non-staff member, but there is no confirmation yet.
During the busy farming season, the machines never stop working and breakdowns are common. In addition, there are not many people in the entire county who can perform repairs, so Chu Hongchen is particularly popular.
Although this job is a bit dirty because every time a breakdown occurs in the fields, the living standards have made a qualitative leap and I am treated as a guest of honor in any team I join.
His life has become better, so naturally some people feel unhappy.
It is normal to be jealous, but he relies on his own strength and is not afraid of anyone.
"Apologize? No way!" Xia Zhiwei bared his teeth and refused to admit his mistake.
Chu Hongchen had been fighting back from the beginning to the end. He said coldly, "Anyone with eyes knows that the fault is not mine."
"Don't think that you can always be superior just because someone praised you before." The old educated youth who came out to mediate saw that neither of the two men was willing to bow their heads and felt a little annoyed at being insulted.
"And you, you're always making such a fuss. You get so cocky when the captain praises you, right? I'm telling you, be more modest. I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice!"
He was so angry that he fired at the two of them like a firecracker, but unfortunately no one fell for it.
Xia Zhiwei had just been helped up, but he was still very stubborn and refused to give any face:
"No wonder you're so idle. It turns out you've eaten too much salt. What does my fight with him have to do with you? If you don't like it, just ignore it. If you can't stand it, come and fight me. I'll fight you to the end!"
If someone like Sister Qu came to persuade him, Xia Zhiwei might listen.
Respect between people is mutual. This guy never cares about us new educated youth. He even gives a cold shoulder when we occasionally ask him something. What dignity do we have?!
