Chapter 119 Building a Thatched Hut



There was an opportunity to make someone she disliked look bad, so of course she had to take advantage of it. "We're all educated youth, we should help each other. It's strange to say you have a lot of money. I don't want your house, I just want to stay for a while. Besides, don't you live in a house in the production team too?"

Zhang Qingwan was originally feeling a little guilty when being looked at by Li Tingman, but after hearing what Zhao Shuanglian said, she felt that she was not wrong and that she was just exchanging with Li Tingman.

Li Tingman snorted coldly, not giving Zhao Shuanglian any face. "Since you are so generous and think sisters are family, why don't you help her pay the eighty yuan? Wouldn't that be better?"

Meng Zhiyu clapped her hands in approval. "Sister Man, this is a good idea. Sister Zhao is so kind and compassionate. She would definitely not want Sister Zhang to be without a place to live, right?"

Can the big bunk bed in the brigade be compared with the single room she built herself?

Not to mention other things, just being able to take off clothes and sleep as you please in a single room is something that even a big house can't compare to.

Li Qingqing interrupted and said, "If you really care about sisterhood so much, just let Zhang Zhiqing live in the big house. She should have lived in one of the female Zhiqing's houses. What right do you have to stop her from living there?"

This makes sense. The single room was built with the people's own money. If it can be taken away at will, it would be a bit unreasonable.

Moreover, if this matter accidentally got out of hand and his superiors misunderstood that he was bullying the educated youth from outside the province, it would be troublesome.

But the situation was different with the dormitory bed. It was the property of the brigade, and no educated youth could make the decision on it at will.

Besides, Zhang Qingwan was just stealing food. If we change our thinking, wouldn’t it be a problem if we asked those female educated youth to build a cabinet to put the food away?

The more the team leader thought about it, the more he felt that it was unnecessary to gather all the educated youth for a meeting. He could only say that he cared too much about their opinions.

"Okay, everyone, please go home. Zhang Zhiqing is still living where he lived before. Let's go home."

After the captain finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but it was easy to come but hard to leave. If he had been tough at the beginning and thrown people in, it wouldn't be a big problem. But now that things have been stirred up, he still wanted to just pat his butt and leave. How could that be possible?

Zhao Shuanglian hadn't expected him to do this. Seeing him about to leave, she hurriedly stopped him, "Captain, if she wants to live in our room, any loss we make will definitely be charged to her. Then we'll have to trouble you to be fair and make her compensate us at the original price."

Humph, he dares to let go, and she dares to take it. I just don't know about the follow-up work. Only they themselves know whether he can accept how much things are lost. It is up to them to decide whether they have lost anything or how much is lost.

Zhang Qingwan didn't care where she lived. It wasn't something she had to worry about anyway, so she just stood there quietly with a look of grievance on her face.

But seeing Zhao Shuanglian's expression and listening to her words, he felt a little uneasy. What if they were falsely accusing him just to extort money from him?

The captain was impatient. He stopped and turned around, looking at Zhao Shuanglian who was smiling. "Are you threatening me?"

Zhao Shuanglian quickly adjusted her expression, looking aggrieved. "Captain, you misunderstood. We are educated youth who came here. Apart from a small subsidy from our families, the rest is all earned by ourselves. It's not easy for anyone. I know you are very busy every day and it's very hard work."

Hearing this, the captain's expression brightened. Zhao Shuanglian felt relieved when she saw this. "Captain, I'm saying this as a precaution to save you from any embarrassment later."

The captain was about to agree when Zhang Qingwan interrupted him, "Captain, I don't want to live in the big house. I want to live in the small house in the back. I don't have that much money and I can't control myself. Any room in the backyard will do. I'm not picky."

So, for everyone's sake, she should stay in a single room.

It was a good idea, not even a word about paying for the rent. Meng Zhiyu looked at the man who had gotten an advantage but was still trying to act nice, "We're going back to the beginning again, Zhang Zhiqing, how much money are you planning to give as rent and compensation?"

Zhang Qingwan looked at Meng Zhiyu in embarrassment, secretly hating her for meddling. "I don't have any money."

Li Tingman snorted coldly, "You have no money but still want our house. How dare you be so shameless."

Li Qingqing hated her to death. They lived happily and harmoniously in the backyard, but the thought of her intervening made her very annoyed. "That's right, do you think our money came from the wind?"

Mu Ziwei hugged his chest and said, "Captain, why don't you let Zhang Zhiqing live in the big house for a few days and let her pay for someone to build a small house. After all, people's words can be scary. With so many of us here, it would be bad if the captain used his power to suppress others."

The captain was furious, but he looked smiling. In fact, each of them was a tough guy.

"Okay, let's do as Mu Zhiqing said. Zhang Zhiqing, how much money can you spare to build a house?"

"Captain, I don't have any money." She could get a house for free, so why should she pay for it herself? Zhao Shuanglian would definitely not let her live in it anyway.

The captain had seen everything. He knew what Zhang Qingwan was thinking as soon as he saw her expression. He looked down on her and said, "No money? Fine, if you can't live in the big house, just live in the kitchen."

If she wants to use him as a gun, she has to see if she has the ability to do so.

Zhang Qingwan was stunned. She didn't expect the captain to let her live in the kitchen. Seeing his serious expression, she was afraid that she would really have to live in a dirty and dilapidated kitchen. "Captain, I have fifteen dollars on me."

Fifteen dollars? The captain calculated, "That's enough for a thatched hut to sleep in."

He couldn't guarantee whether it would leak wind or rain.

Zhang Qingwan imagined himself sleeping soundly, only to have to get up in the middle of the night to collect rainwater in the basin. His face turned pale, "Captain, if I squeeze in, I can get twenty yuan."
