When Song Jin followed the ox cart into the village, it was just past ten o'clock and everyone was going home for dinner after their morning work.
Uncle Zhang wanted to send Song Jin back to his home, so the ox cart swayed all the way to the village in front of everyone.
The four large packages in the car shocked the whole village. Everyone was asking each other who owned such a large package. They thought he was moving home.
Some people followed the ox cart to see where it would stop, until it stopped at the yard next to the team leader's house.
"Isn't that Chen Laoer's yard? Why is it parked here? Is Chen Laoer moving back again? Is there something wrong at home? Go ask him."
"You're so out of touch. I heard from my dog that the house was sold to an educated youth. Yesterday afternoon, the team leader's family even hired someone to help clean up the house. This thing must belong to that educated youth."
"This educated youth is really rich. He bought a house and brought so many packages. His family must be very rich to bring so many things when he went to the countryside."
"Bah! What's so rich about it? It's just a money-loser. I saw it yesterday. It's just a little devil. Its family sent it so many things. Let's go and see what they have."
When the people around heard the old woman speak, they stopped talking. She was an old man in the village and extremely favored boys over girls, but she herself gave birth to five daughters and still couldn't give birth to a son.
Four of the five daughters were sold, and the third and most beautiful one was kept and a live-in son-in-law was found at home.
To put it nicely, he is a son-in-law who lives with the family. To put it bluntly, he just bought a breeding pig and has been giving birth to children one after another. Her daughter is 36 years old this year and is now seven months pregnant.
Six girls were born before, and now only two are left in the family to work after the ones they abandoned or sold.
One is 8 years old and the other is 10 years old. Every day when I pass by their house, what I see most is the two little girls working and the others waiting to serve them.
The most common phrase the little girl said every time she was beaten was: "Please, grandma, please sell me!"
The person the villagers looked down upon the most was this old hag, because she was so good-looking that it was hard to tell what she was like.
Song Jin ignored what the people around him said. He arrived at the door, opened it and started moving the package in.
When everyone saw her carrying such large packages, one in each hand, the smarter ones had already turned around and went home. She was a capable female educated youth.
After the last package was taken off the carriage, Song Jin handed Uncle Zhang 50 cents, but Uncle Zhang refused to take it. He had already eaten three steamed buns and two meat buns, so how could he ask for more money for the fare?
But he was too embarrassed to say it in front of so many people, so Song Jin didn't wait for him to refuse and stuffed the money into his hand.
She walked in carrying the package. Others were watching from afar. The old woman, with a big smile on her face, squeezed forward and said to herself as she walked: "Oh, this package is really big. We don't even know this girl yet. Why don't you introduce yourself? Come, let me help you see if there is anything you need at home. Don't be polite. Just tell me if you need any help. Let me help you open this package. Why would you buy a house by yourself? I have a spare room at home. It would be great if you could move in. I can even serve you food and drink."
The people around her were almost overwhelmed by her shamelessness. As soon as Song Jin saw this sarcastic face, he knew that this old lady was not someone to be easily dealt with. He directly refused.
"Thank you for your concern. My name is Song Jin, and I'm a newly arrived educated youth. My home is a bit messy, so I won't invite you in today. Thank you all."
After saying this, he closed the door and put the bolt on it before the old woman could step in.
The old woman was almost in the doorway when the door suddenly slammed, nearly hitting her nose. She cursed, "You're such an ungrateful girl! I'm trying to help you out, but you don't even appreciate it. What's wrong with being a city person? You're so great, but you still come to our country. Don't ever ask me for anything in the future. Bah! You little bitch!"
She wanted to curse again but she saw a man coming out of the captain's house next door, staring at her with gloomy eyes. She wanted to curse a few words but found out it was the little hooligan Chen Saner. She twitched her sharp beak but didn't dare to say anything.
I turned around and wanted to chat with the people around me, but found that there was no one behind me.
Feeling she hadn't performed well today, the old woman walked home, cursing under her breath. Halfway there, she suddenly slapped her thigh. "Oh my god, why did that little bitch forget to lie down on the ground when she closed the door just now? I should have just laid there and said I was hit, and then took the opportunity to ask for some money or a package in exchange."
Oops, I suffered a great loss today.
He walked home while hitting Kangzi with regret.
