Yang Chunhua's sister-in-law, Wang Qiufen, was standing nearby. Her biggest sore spot was that her eldest son, Zhao Jianbin, had fallen for a female educated youth and insisted on marrying her no matter what.
Hearing this, Wang Qiufen was furious. She immediately stood up, pounced on Liu Dazui who was teasing her, and grabbed his hair and started tearing at it.
The others screamed and rushed to separate the two. Yang Chunhua, the sister-in-law, secretly took sides and pinched Liu Da's mouth several times when no one was looking.
The captain arrived after hearing the commotion and shouted, "Stop!"
Upon seeing the captain arrive, the two men dared not make a move and stood aside, waiting for him to handle the matter fairly.
The captain's brows furrowed like a watershed as he looked at the two men with their hair disheveled and yelled irritably, "Are you two just bored and looking for trouble? All you do is cause trouble all day long. Half a day's work points will be deducted from each of you!"
The two women listened and nodded obsequiously, but the brigade leader ignored them and turned to his wife, saying, "Go and call their husbands here, take them back and discipline them properly. Also, have the women's director educate them after work. They're just doing nothing right."
"Scatter, everyone! What are you looking at? Stop working!" The captain angrily chased away the onlookers and walked away.
The educated youth who were not far away watched from a distance the whole time and did not go over to see what was going on.
No matter how much these country folk argued, they didn't want the educated youth to laugh at them.
Of course, the educated youth themselves were not happy about it either.
Xie Yuyao was dumbfounded. They started fighting over nothing. It seems she needs to work on her training.

As soon as the captain left, Wang Qiufen and Liu Dazui revealed their true colors.
Liu Dazui rubbed his scalp, which was sore from being pulled, and pointed at Wang Qiufen and Yang Chunhua with a face full of indignation, "You two, Wang Qiufen, are bullying me together!"
Yang Chunhua repeatedly denied it: "Don't accuse me wrongly! I was just trying to break up the fight!"
Wang Qiufen and Liu Dazui wanted to continue fighting, but Aunt Tian stopped them, saying, "What, you want to deduct your men's work points too?"
The two disliked each other so much that they turned their backs and refused to look at each other.
Soon, the two men, who were like best buddies, walked over together, arm in arm, which infuriated Liu Dazui and Wang Qiufen, who walked away with grim faces.
Liu Dazui patted the other man's arm and said, "Brother, I'm really sorry. My family members are so inconsiderate. Please apologize to your wife for me."
Wang Qiufen's husband quickly said, "Don't mention it. I should apologize to my sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law acted impulsively, please don't mind her."
"Haha, how could that be?"
A conflict sparked by the topic of educated youth was seemingly resolved amicably through mutual understanding between the two men.
As for what their respective wives think, there's nothing that can be done about it.
