As soon as Zhao Hongying said this, someone started shouting.
"That's not right, Zhao Zhiqing. Our team leader doesn't know what's going on. How do you know?"
The arrogant male educated youth stood up and said, "What you said is wrong. Do you know who Zhao Zhiqing is?"
Hearing this, the man became curious, "Who is Zhao Zhiqing?"
"Of course Zhao Zhiqing is different from you guys!" The tone was extremely arrogant.
The expressions of the members who were watching him changed when they saw him. This man was really too arrogant. What was he doing? Did he look down on others?
However, this educated youth seemed not to notice the reactions of the crowd, and looked very smug.
If you don’t know him, you would think he is not an ordinary person!
Thinking of this, Li Mingxi saw him cough and then speak.
"Zhao Zhiqing is!"
"Shen Zhiqing, why are you talking about this?"
For some unknown reason, Zhao Hongying interrupted him directly.
The man was interrupted by her, but he was not angry. He just looked at Zhao Hongying in confusion.
"Okay, Shen Zhiqing, why are you telling everyone this? We are talking about the Niu Pozi now!"
"Okay, then go ahead and tell everyone!"
Li Mingxi saw that the man who had been so arrogant before now had a submissive look on his face.
This made Li Mingxi wonder, why did this male educated youth listen to Zhao Hongying so much?
The members didn't care about Zhao Hongying's identity, but now someone has spoken up.
"I don't care who Zhao Zhiqing is, I just want to hear what she has to say!"
"That's right, Zhao Zhiqing, hurry up and tell me!"
"Okay, I didn't want to tell you originally, but since you all want to hear it so much, I have no choice but to tell you!"
After a pause and a glance at Niu Cuihua, Zhao Hongying slowly spoke.
"It's nothing, actually. We all know that this old woman's family has a soldier, and he's the second son in the family!"
"I guess everyone knows that the second son in their family is the head of the county's armed forces department!"
"I won't tell you what the Minister of Armed Forces is. All you need to know is that he's a very important official!"
"Why is it that for so many years, no one in our brigade has joined the army except Ermao? It's all because of the second child in their family!"
"This woman told her second son not to let anyone in the brigade join the army!"
For a moment, some people actually believed what Zhao Hongying said.
Before she could even finish her words, someone started shouting.
He shouted and glared at Niu Cuihua fiercely with his eyes wide open.
"Aunt Niu, why? Why did you say hello to the Party and not let the children in our village join the army?"
"That's right, Aunt Niu, you can't just let us live a good life just because your family is living a good life!"
All of a sudden, everyone started complaining about Niu Cuihua.
"It's Aunt Niu. We are from the same team. What's the matter? Don't you want us to live a good life?"
Being wronged by everyone, Niu Cuihua was extremely anxious and tried to explain herself loudly.
"Oh, no, that's not right, I don't have that ability!"
"How can I be so capable as to make others choose someone other than our team? They won't choose anyone else!"
"If it's really like what you said, and whoever I want to enlist will be selected, then with so many young men in our family, wouldn't one of them have enlisted long ago?"
After Niu Cuihua said this, some people began to doubt.
"Exactly. Who in our team doesn't know what kind of person Aunt Niu is?"
"That's right, Zhao Zhiqing, how could you wrongly accuse Aunt Niu like this?"
Li Mingxi stood up and started speaking at the right time.
"That's right, Zhao Zhiqing, don't talk nonsense without investigating. The people above are not fools. Why should they listen to my grandma?"
"Zhao Zhiqing, you can mess up your food, but you can't mess up your words. You're putting so many accusations on my grandma like this. Have you ever thought about the impact it will have on her?"
Zhao Hongying was originally very proud of herself, but when she saw that someone actually came forward to speak well of Niu Cuihua, her face turned dark.
Now seeing Li Mingxi stand up and question him, he was even more angry.
Therefore, without thinking, she directly confronted Li Mingxi.
"Oh, you are Niu Cuihua's granddaughter, of course you speak for her!"
After a pause and a glance at Li Mingxi, she started talking again.
"I heard that you seem to be still a high school student. I want to ask, why are you neither in school nor working now? Why don't you go to work?"
After glancing at everyone, Zhao Hongying spoke again.
"If you don't work, why do you still get your share of the brigade's food every day? Aren't you just letting everyone support you for nothing?"
When some people heard this, they immediately agreed.
"Yes, Zhao Zhiqing is right. The Li family's little granddaughter is already so old, but she still doesn't work. Isn't this deliberately letting us support her?"
However, there were also people who disagreed with this and spoke directly.
"You're not right. The Li family's granddaughter isn't the only one who doesn't work in our brigade. There are also many elderly people!"
"Why, you only talk about the little girl and nothing else, like that Niu Juxiang, didn't she go to work?"
Zhao Hongying pressed on. "Those you're talking about are all elderly people, but Li Mingxi is so young and can work. Why doesn't she go to work?"
"It's fine if you say she doesn't want to work because she's too old, but why doesn't she want to work when she's still young?"
Having said this, she turned to look at Li Tiezhu.
"Captain, I want to ask you, why do all of us educated youth have to go to work, but your little granddaughter doesn't?"
Li Tiezhu looked at the arrogant Zhao Hongying, and then looked at the members who were looking at him with confusion.
He really didn't expect that Zhao Zhiqing would actually ask him about this.
Fortunately, his brother had informed him beforehand, and since Li Mingxi didn't go to work, he simply didn't give her any food.
Then, Er Laizi started shouting, "Captain, tell us, what's going on? Why isn't Niu Cuihua's granddaughter working, and is she even getting a share of the food? Isn't this just taking away everyone else's food?"
Li Tiezhu sighed and said in a deep voice, "Alright, this is something I didn't tell everyone before. Actually, the team didn't give her any food!"
When these words were spoken, the members were furious!
Some people obviously didn't believe this, "No way, if she doesn't get any food every year, what will she eat?"
Someone spoke up, "What do you think she eats? The salary Aiguo earns driving a sports car isn't even enough for her to eat. Do you think they're giving it to us? If we don't work, we won't have anything to eat!"
"Yes, yes, I was mistaken!"
"Besides, aren't Old Man Li and his daughter-in-law still working?"
"Oh, right? We can ask the accountant. Isn't he the one who calculates the work points every year?"
As soon as this was said, someone spoke up in agreement.
"Yes, yes. Has the accountant come yet? Let him tell us if this is true."
