Chapter 70 A Bolt from the Blue
While the Shu family was in turmoil because of Su Peipei, Su Xiao was also facing trouble here.
Su Xiao looked at the notice to go to the countryside in her hand and felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Excuse me, what's going on? I didn't apply to go to the countryside, so why did I receive a voluntary rural work assignment notice?"
Upon hearing this, the junior clerk became displeased and said, "Don't you want to go to the countryside? Comrade, there's something wrong with your thinking. Actively responding to the call to go to the countryside to participate in production and the construction of the motherland is a great cause. How can you back down..."
The junior staff member kept talking non-stop, making Su Xiao's head buzz.
"Stop! Since going to the countryside is so good, why don't you go yourself? I think you have a high level of awareness, it would be a disservice to yourself not to go. Come on, I'll take you to register..." Su Xiao pretended to pull him.
"You're crazy." The junior officer was so frightened that he turned and ran away.
Su Xiao frowned as she watched his retreating figure. After thinking for a moment, she headed towards the educated youth office. She couldn't just accept it without knowing the truth. She had to find out who was behind this. Even if she couldn't change the outcome, she had to remember the person and get revenge.
Su Xiao took the notification letter and went directly to the office for educated youth.
"Why did you come along?" The junior officer was displeased to see her follow him. "The notice has already been sent out; are you trying to avoid going?"
Su Xiaoyang waved the notice in her hand and smiled, "I didn't say I wouldn't go, but I have the right to know who gave him the authority to make decisions for others without their consent. Isn't that dereliction of duty and abuse of power...?"
Su Xiao spoke loudly, and many people in the educated youth office gathered around.
Su Xiao took the opportunity to explain her situation. She was in high school, and her parents had recently passed away in an accident, leaving behind their jobs. The factory leaders agreed that she could take over her mother's job after graduation.
"Dear uncles and aunties, under these circumstances, how could I possibly choose to go to the countryside? So tell me, where did this notice come from?"
Su Xiao stared at the junior staff member, not giving an inch.
"You, you shouldn't be making trouble. This notice was issued from above. Since it was issued, it must have come from a legitimate source."
"So, who exactly did this? And who's your superior? Comrade, since you have a legitimate background, what are you afraid of? Please answer my questions directly, okay?" Su Xiao pressed on relentlessly.
"Yeah, comrade, tell me, who gave you this notice?" Someone nearby, never one to miss an opportunity for a good show, chimed in, "Could there really be something fishy going on?"
"No, no, don't talk nonsense." The junior officer waved his hands repeatedly, sweating profusely. He already regretted taking on this task.
"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here? Why didn't you go to school again?" Shu Zhendong had just come over to handle Shu Bowen's rural affairs and had just finished when he saw Su Xiaoxiao and hurriedly went up to ask.
“Uncle Shu.” Su Xiao didn’t expect to run into an acquaintance here again. Suddenly, she had a sudden thought and said with a bitter smile, “I’m afraid I won’t have to go to school anymore. The notice has such a tight deadline. It’s obvious that they want me to leave quickly and don’t want me to take over my mother’s job.”
"What notification?" Shu Zhendong frowned slightly.
"Here, the notice to go to the countryside."
Shu Zhendong looked at the notice and immediately understood. He angrily asked, "What's going on? Who did this?"
