Everyone by the creek was startled by the screams and looked over at me, only to see an old lady running out with a red face, cursing as she ran.
"This slutty vixen is truly shameless! I only heard about it before, but now it's confirmed."
Everyone quickly gathered around and asked.
"Auntie, what's going on? What's going on in the reeds? Is it a snake?"
Several young wives asked curiously. The aunt's voice was quite loud just now. In fact, they all heard it, but they were a little embarrassed, so they pretended to be confused.
The aunt curled her lips and said, "That's not a snake at all. That's the captain's sister-in-law. Your Aunt Lian, this shameless person, is actually fooling around with that wild man in there."
This statement caused an uproar. There had been rumors about Aunt Lian in the village before, but they were just rumors. Everyone just listened to them and no one took them too seriously. Unexpectedly, they turned out to be true.
Everyone looked at each other, and some of the older ladies spoke.
"Let's go in and see if that wild man is from our village."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of many other female comrades tightened. Yes, I hope it is that bastard from our family, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
As they were talking, a group of women rushed into the reed marsh, followed by a burst of screams.
Sun Yuqi and Lin Muren looked at each other, smiled, and decided not to go in. They thought the scenes inside would not be very good-looking and were not suitable for little girls like them to see. Although the young wives and older girls were very curious, no one followed them.
"Yuqi, isn't that strange? That auntie just ran out and went back in several minutes ago. Why didn't those two people run away?"
Sun Yuqi smiled and pointed at a group of five or six-year-old children not far away, who were running there wildly with a piece of clothing in their hands.
Lin Muren looked in the direction of Sun Yuqi's finger, and then he understood what was going on. He immediately burst out laughing.
"Haha, these kids are so mean! How could they take someone else's clothes? Now, those two are really embarrassed."
It was noisy inside for a while before it slowly quieted down. Soon, a female comrade came out, found the children, took the clothes back from them, and then went into the reed marsh.
Sun Yuqi and Lin Muren also washed their clothes. Summer clothes are easy to wash and are not very dirty. They just need to remove the sweat smell, so they wash quickly.
Soon after the two returned to the Youth League Home, they heard that the two people who had committed adultery were not outsiders. The man was Zheng Laoliu and the woman was Aunt Lian. Now it was a good thing. It was said that Zheng Chengwei's old father was almost angry to death when he heard about this.
One was the wife of his ill-fated fourth son, and the other was his nephew. Although they hadn't interacted much over the years, they were still family after all! Now the entire Zheng family had lost face.
Lin Muren gloated after hearing this.
"Neither of these two people is a good person. Aunt Lian and Zheng Dashuan coveted you, and Zheng Laoliu's daughter coveted Chen Lixiang, and in the end, it implicated Chen Hao."
After saying this, Lin Muren remembered that Chen Lixiang's silent departure was a bit too much for Sun Yuqi.
"I'm sorry, Yuqi, I forgot about this."
Sun Yuqi shook her head to indicate that nothing was wrong. She no longer had any extra thoughts about Chen Lixiang.
In fact, what she was more curious about about Chen Lixiang was his martial arts. Before he left, he once said that he would teach her ancient martial arts.
The ancient martial arts that Chen Lixiang learned were just like those shown on TV in later generations. He could climb walls and fly over rooftops at an incredible speed, and he could run silently.
She once used her speed ability to compete with Chen Lixiang's ancient martial arts and lightness skills, but she lost. Moreover, Chen Lixiang used lightness skills to get in front of her. If she hadn't concentrated, she would not have felt that he had already reached her.
But before she started learning, Chen Lixiang left. Perhaps it would be their last farewell in this life, so she adjusted herself well mentally. She basically didn't think about Chen Lixiang during this period. If Lin Muren hadn't mentioned him today, she would have almost forgotten him completely.
Lin Muren was relieved to see that Sun Yuqi didn't seem to care about Chen Lixiang's departure. In Lin Muren's heart, she already regarded Sun Yuqi as a good friend, so she didn't want Sun Yuqi to be sad because of Chen Lixiang.
No one in Zhengjiatun reported the incident, but the rumor was strong after all. Within three days, people from the commune revolutionary committee came and took Zheng Laoliu and Aunt Lian away. Then the next day, news came out that both of them were sentenced to five years of labor reform for hooliganism. As for where they were sent for reform, no one knew.
Because of this incident, team leader Zheng Chengwei was called to the commune again and scolded.
Zheng Chengwei has not been having a good time recently. Firstly, he is scolded by his old father every day at home, who says that he is not managing the brigade well and has brought shame to the brigade.
Secondly, I was scolded by the leaders in the commune. Just look at how many troubles your construction team has caused in the past two years. Of course, it is undeniable that the construction team has also done a lot of good things in the past two years, such as going up the mountain to kill wild wolves.
This also made Zheng Chengwei save some face.
Zheng Chengwei, who had just walked out of the commune while pushing his bicycle, bumped into a young man without paying attention.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, young man. I wasn't paying attention just now. Are you hurt?"
Lu Chen frowned and looked at the marks on his legs, then shook his head helplessly.
"Uncle, it's okay. Just be more careful next time."
Zheng Chengwei smiled as he saw that the young man was very polite.
"Young man, I see your accent doesn't sound local! Are you here on business?"
Lu Chen squinted his eyes and smiled, but said nothing.
Seeing him like this, Zheng Chengwei knew that he had asked something he shouldn't have asked, and said hurriedly.
"I'm sorry, young man. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. You can go do your work too!"
Lu Chen said this when he saw that he was about to leave.
"Uncle, is there a Zhengjiatun or Construction Brigade here?"
When Zheng Chengwei heard that he wanted to find his own team, he was confused but still spoke.
"I'm the captain of the construction team, also known as the Zhengjiatun team captain. What do you want from our village?"
Lu Chen was also surprised when he heard Zheng Chengwei say this. He didn't expect that he asked the right person by just asking casually. He smiled and said.
"Hello, Captain. I'm Lu Yao's brother. Lu Yao worked in the countryside with you last year."
Speaking of this, Zheng Chengwei also thought of that lively little girl.
"Haha, you're talking about her! But she went back to Beijing last winter and never came back."
Lu Chen knew that Zheng Chengwei had misunderstood and waved his hands.
"Uncle, you misunderstood. I only came here to see the place where my sister once cut in line! I have no other intentions."
