Chapter 54 Caught in a Conspiracy



The next morning, Zhou Yujiao went to the educated youth site early, and Zhao Zhiqing believed it.

Doesn't she understand who Li Zhigao is?

He had previously instigated her to plot against the men in the village.

Besides, the two of them didn’t know each other, so why would the older sister in front of her lie to her?

Zhou Yujiao's reminder made Zhao Yuan immediately alert and said gratefully:

"Thank you, Sister Zhou, for your reminder. I will definitely be careful!"

Seeing that the other party believed it and there was one less person falling into the fire pit, Zhou Yujiao felt relieved.

She said, "Zhao Zhiqing, if you have any difficulties, you can ask for help. Most people in the village are enthusiastic. Of course, if you are worried, you can also ask me. I'm at Old Huatou's house over there."

Zhao Yuan nodded, feeling somewhat touched.

After the reminder, Zhou Yujiao left with a relaxed mood.

Here, Zhao Yuan found Li Zhigao who was bragging next door and slapped him in the face.

After slapping him, Zhao Yuan started cursing at Li Zhigao, who looked confused and a little angry, and the other educated youth who didn't understand what was going on.

"You bastard, you screwed me once, wasn't it enough? You're planning to screw me again, right? Do you think I'm some little white rabbit you can play around with? You're full of evil intentions, scheming against people endlessly. The atmosphere among the educated youth is ruined by people like you! I'm telling you, don't even mention that you didn't succeed. Even if you did, I'd stab you to death first and then commit suicide!"

KuKu's barrage of words stunned Li Zhigao. He realized that his plan to plot against Zhao Yuan had been exposed.

But the problem is that there were only Hua Laizi and me at the scene at that time. How did Zhao Yuan know?

No matter how Zhao Yuan knew it, she couldn't admit it now, otherwise her reputation would be ruined.

Li Zhigao frowned and said, "Zhao Zhiqing, what are you talking about? Could it be that what happened last time has made you resentful of me?"

The male educated youth who was watching the excitement nearby asked:

"What happened between you two last time?"

Li Zhigao hesitated for a moment and said reluctantly:

"This concerns Comrade Zhao Yuan's reputation. I can't say anything."

Everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Yuan, who uttered a curse:

"What's there to hide? Wasn't it you, Li Zhigao, who instigated me to seduce the men in the village, and the plan didn't work? Didn't you just want to ruin my reputation? Today I'm speaking plainly: I don't want this shabby reputation, and neither do you, Li Zhigao!"

Li Zhigao sighed and said sadly:

"Zhao Zhiqing is right. I don't have much to say. Just treat me, Li Zhigao, as that kind of person."

Everyone's eyes on Zhao Yuan changed instantly. Look, Li Zhigao was still giving you face, but you just slapped him indiscriminately and then started slandering him.

How can this be called an educated youth? Isn't this a complete shrew?

Some educated youth tried to smooth things over:

"Zhao Zhiqing, is there any misunderstanding between you and Li Zhiqing? If there is a misunderstanding, please talk it out."

"Yes, we educated youth should be united. It's not good to make such an ugly scene, right?"

"As great men say, mistakes are inevitable, and when they are made, it's best to correct them quickly! What's the point of all this fuss?"

The educated youths all tried to persuade Zhao Yuan to calm down, and their words seemed to tolerate Zhao Yuan's mistakes. It was obvious that they all believed Li Zhigao.

Zhao Yuan looked at everyone's gazes, snorted coldly, and thought to herself, what a bunch of blind idiots. If Li Zhigao could plot against her, why wouldn't he plot against others?

It will be too late to regret when these idiots are tricked!

Zhao Yuan said:

"Li Zhigao, I, Zhao Yuan, will never reconcile with you from now on!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Li Zhigao looked at Zhao Yuan's departing back, and a barely perceptible dark light flashed in his eyes.

Zhu Yu was also at the scene, and he also kept his gaze on the direction where Zhao Yuan left, with a thoughtful look on his face.

In the afternoon, female educated youth Tian Suyun found Zhao Yuan.

"Yuanyuan, there are a lot of ripe chestnuts and wild fruits on the mountain. Would you like to come with me to pick them?"

When Zhao Yuan heard that there was food to be had in the mountains, she agreed without hesitation.

The educated youth did not work as well as the old masters in the village, so they naturally did not get many work points. Unlike the villagers, they could not pick vegetables to sell in the city, so they could only rely on subsidies from their families to make a living.

But most people's families can only provide limited subsidies, so generally speaking, they cannot avoid going hungry.

Fortunately, the mountains in the south are rich in resources. Those who are capable can trap wild game such as rabbits and pheasants. People like Zhao Yuan can also pick wild chestnuts to fill their stomachs.

Taking a basket and a hatchet, Zhao Yuan followed Tian Suyun and set off.

When they arrived in the mountains, Zhao Yuan saw that there were fewer and fewer people as they walked, and she couldn't help but wonder.

"Suyun, the trees here are tall and dense. Can chestnut trees really grow there?"

Tian Suyun said, "You've never seen a tall chestnut tree, have you? Besides, the chestnut trees are still ahead!"

"All right."

On second thought, it was their turn because no one noticed, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to pick up the chestnut shells.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan picked up a hatchet and chopped off the branches and thorns blocking the way while continuing to follow Tian Suyun.

After walking for a while, the two of them indeed found chestnuts on the ground. Zhao Yuan stepped on the thorny chestnut shell without saying a word, took out the chestnuts inside and threw them into the basket.

There is a small empty space in front, probably because someone discovered this chestnut patch and cleared it out.

Tian Suyun walked forward and turned around and said:

"Yuanyuan, I'll go pick it up in front and I won't fight with you for it."

Zhao Yuan nodded, listened to the footsteps fade away, and concentrated on searching on the ground.
