Wang Liming, Zhou Dongmei and the others went to the educated youth center's person in charge, Zhou Zhou, with a serious look on their faces, and asked with a hint of questioning in their tone:
"Zhou Zhiqing, you are the person in charge of our Youth House. Qin Ruanruan's nonsense has seriously damaged the reputation of our Youth House. Are you just going to sit back and do nothing?"
When Zhou Guodong heard this, a sneer appeared on his face, and he snorted disdainfully and said:
"Then tell me, how should Zhou Zhiqing handle this? What Ruanruan said is all the truth!"
Han Jiaming on the side reminded:
"Zhou Zhiqing, do you really think this is just a matter between the two Qin Zhiqings? If they become infamous, how can the entire Zhiqingyuan remain unscathed? The Zhiqingyuan should be united, but now there's internal strife. Do you think this kind of thing would be a good thing if it got out?"
Zhou Zhou was enlightened when he heard this, and secretly blamed himself for not considering it carefully. At that time, he really only thought that Qin Ruanruan and Qin Wan were sisters, and it was inconvenient for him to meddle in other people's family affairs, but he had never expected that these two people were also members of the Youth League.
Zhou Zhou was very ashamed. He responded solemnly:
"Jia Ming is right. We educated youth are a group. We are all brothers and sisters. We shouldn't slander each other. I'll call Qin Ruanruan back right away."
After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards where Qin Ruanruan was.
Originally, the number of people at their educated youth camp was small, and everyone was peaceful. There were no major issues, so he hadn't worried much. Unexpectedly, these new educated youth were so difficult to manage. Each one had a distinct personality! Alas, he might have to worry more from now on.
Zhou Zhou looked at Qin Ruanruan, who was chatting animatedly and happily with the villagers. He frowned slightly and shouted at Qin Ruanruan with a slightly dissatisfied tone:
"Qin Ruanruan, are you bored out of your mind? You keep talking here non-stop. Don't forget, it's your group's turn to cook today."
Qin Ruanruan was chatting enthusiastically at this time, but her face froze when she heard Zhou Zhou's words. She muttered to herself:
That’s not right. I clearly remember that it shouldn’t be their group that cooks today. Did I remember the date wrong?
Full of doubts, she had to say goodbye to the aunts and then followed Zhou Zhou away obediently. Along the way, she kept asking:
"Captain, are you sure you remembered correctly? Is it really our group's turn to cook today?"
"Of course not!" Zhou Zhou's face darkened instantly, and he replied unhappily, "I just can't stand the fact that after work, you just chat with others about irrelevant things and talk nonsense.
Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? Your behavior has seriously damaged the harmonious atmosphere among our educated youth and has had a negative impact on everyone.
"After you return, you must deeply reflect on your mistakes. If a similar situation occurs again, don't blame me for being ruthless and reporting directly to the higher-level Youth League Office!"
Although Qin Runrun was extremely dissatisfied in her heart, when she thought of Zhou Zhou's usual strong appearance, and she really didn't want to provoke this troublesome person easily, she could only respond in a low voice with a feeling of grievance: "Oh, I know." Her voice was full of helplessness and unwillingness.
Zhou Guodong, who had been watching all this silently, couldn't stand it any longer. He was Qin Ruanruan's licker, and seeing Qin Ruanruan's aggrieved and tearful expression, he couldn't help but feel pity. He turned around and questioned Zhou Zhou:
"Ruanruan is just telling the truth. She didn't make it up at all. What did she do wrong? What do you want her to reflect on?"
There was obvious dissatisfaction and anger in his tone.
Facing Zhou Guodong's questioning, Zhou Zhou seemed unhurried. He replied seriously:
"Our Youth Home is a big family! Minor conflicts are inevitable within this family, but these internal issues must be resolved internally! Why do we have to go and complain to those aunts and aunts in the village? Do we really have to make this little conflict known to everyone?"
His words also showed his dissatisfaction with Qin Ruanruan.
Wang Liming listened and echoed:
"That's right! As the saying goes, don't air your dirty laundry in public. Let alone the fact that such a thing never happened, even if it really did happen, who would have the nerve to spread it around? Does letting everyone know about these rubbish make us glorious, proud, and superior?"
Zhou Dongmei couldn't help but interrupt after hearing this:
"Hmph! What I hate most is those people who dare not say a word in front of others but grumble behind their backs! If you have the guts, just say it clearly in front of Qin Wan! Calling each other sisters in front of you but stabbing me in the back, what kind of people are they?"
His words revealed his contempt for such people.
Finally, even Zhang Erxiu, who usually doesn't like to talk, muttered:
"That's right! Some people just like to play this game of saying one thing to your face and another behind your back. It's like being a whore and trying to establish a chastity archway for themselves!"
Everyone expressed their disgust at this behavior.
After Qin Ruanruan heard those words, a strong urge suddenly surged in her heart, and she really wanted to fight back fiercely.
However, her mind told her not to do that. After all, there were three women standing across from her. If she really spoke back, she might not only fail to gain any advantage, but might actually suffer a huge loss. If that were the case, the loss would outweigh the gain.
Qin Wan was completely unaware of what was happening in the Youth House. At this moment, she was busy working in her own small courtyard.
She first put the pots, pans, and other items in order, then picked up the broom and prepared to sweep the entire yard.
This yard has not been taken care of for a long time and is overgrown with all kinds of weeds.
Because everyone had rumored that this was a haunted house, no one dared to approach it, causing the weeds to grow wildly and become almost as tall as a person.
Because of this, this place has become a habitat for many small animals. Here, you can see rabbit nests, mouse holes, and even snake nests hidden among them.
After some effort, Qin Wan finally cleared all the weeds in the yard. Looking at the uneven ground in front of her, she couldn't help but think to herself:
"The texture of this land looks quite fertile. It would be great if we could grow some vegetables here."
Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation and joy appeared on Qin Wan's face.
Although no one told Qin Wan about the gossip Qin Ruanruan said in the morning, the truth could not be hidden, and Qin Wan still found out in the afternoon.
