Wu Weiguo ran out and saw Jiang Wenwan stepping on Zhou Yunting's leg. He quickly pushed Jiang Wenwan away.
"Jiang Zhiqing, this is Zhou Zhiqing, not a thief!"
Jiang Wenwan was pushed and stumbled, rolled her eyes, put her hands on her hips, and angrily cursed:
"He came back late at night, reeking of alcohol. I was catching a weasel when he suddenly appeared."
It gave me quite a fright. How could I not mistake him for a thief?
Breaking his legs would be too lenient of me.
The noise in their courtyard was quite loud, waking up several people in the educated youth's houses.
Hu Qinghua yelled in annoyance.
"Why are you catching weasels in the middle of the night? Are you bored out of your mind? You're so annoying, can't a person get any sleep?"
The window in Du Zhiyuan's room opened again, but someone inside glanced at it and then closed it again.
Wang Jianguo walked out sleepily, stood by the door, and looked annoyed.
"Jiang Wenwan, is your only trait to break other people's legs? My leg just healed, and you broke the leg of the new educated youth, Zhou. How come I never noticed how reckless you were before?"
Jiang Wenwan rolled her eyes. Wu Weiguo squatted down to help Zhou Yunting up. The two exchanged a few words and Wu Weiguo understood what was going on.
I glanced at Jiang Zhiqing, who was standing with his hands on his hips, speaking loudly.
I broke your leg because you stole my bicycle.
I broke his leg because I thought he was a thief.
Is it my fault that you came home late from drinking and made me apologize?
"This is so annoying! I thought I could catch a weasel to sell for money, but that's all ruined."
Seeing that she had finished shouting and was walking into the house, Wu Weiguo quickly went to complete the act.
“Jiang Zhiqing, you can’t just let this go like this, since you broke Zhou Zhiqing’s leg.”
We'll definitely have a word with the captain tomorrow.
"Whatever, I didn't do it on purpose anyway."
After Jiang Wenwan finished speaking, she went back into the house.
Wang Jianguo remained leaning against the doorframe and asked Wu Weiguo.
Do you need my help?
"No need, he's a little drunk, I can handle it."
With Wu Weiguo's help to cover for them, the night passed smoothly.
Before going to work that morning, Jiang Wenwan took a spear knife and went out to destroy the bushes where Zhou Yunting had been lying the night before, covering up the bloodstains.
Wu Weiguo went to find the brigade leader early in the morning.
Zhou Yunting sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), having already changed his pants. He rolled up the cuffs of his pants to show the brigade leader that the cuffs were red and swollen.
"Captain, please be the judge! I admit I ran into an old classmate in the county last night and drank a bit too much, so I came back a little late, but that doesn't deserve to have my leg broken!"
The captain took two deep drags on his pipe and exhaled two puffs of white smoke from his nose.
He looked at Jiang Wenwan with a speechless and helpless expression.
“Jiang Zhiqing! This is the second one.”
Tell me, how are you going to explain this?
Jiang Wenwan stood confidently at the door of Ma Debi's house.
Bai Yi glanced at Ma Debi, who was giving her a thumbs-up, and looked at the captain, saying:
"Captain, this can't be entirely my responsibility. I made braised chicken last night, and a weasel came to steal it, so I caught it!"
As soon as I went outside, I saw a figure staggering towards me.
In the dark, I thought it was a thief, so wouldn't it be perfectly normal for me to break the thief's legs?
Zhou Yunting sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), a smile flashing in his eyes. His leg wasn't actually broken, but he could cover up the bruises on his leg very well. His face had an expression of demanding an explanation.
"But I'm not a thief!"
Jiang Wenwan also looked like she had an Oscar statuette on her body, and rolled her eyes.
"You didn't say you weren't a thief back then."
"So what do you suggest we do about my leg?"
"Captain, I definitely won't be able to work for the next few days, what do you think?"
Before the captain could speak, Wang Jianguo interjected:
"This time, we must make Jiang Zhiqing pay more work points."
I also heard that you reported and praised her, but what makes her worthy of praise?
Jiang Wenwan rolled her eyes at him.
"I killed a wolf and then saved someone; will you save someone too?"
"You even hit someone!"
"Say that again and I bet I'll hit you again?"
"You dare!"
Jiang Wenwan clenched her fist.
As soon as Wang Jianguo saw this, he hid behind the brigade leader.
The veins on the captain's forehead throbbed.
"Okay, I understand."
He glanced at Jiang Wenwan with a look of disappointment and frustration.
"You were wrong to hit someone, so you must pay Zhou, the educated youth, ten work points."
"Then my food problem will be difficult to solve. How about we let her bring my food too?"
Zhou Yunting pushed his luck, and the captain didn't object.
Knowing that Jiang Wenwan eats rabbit and pheasant well every day, the injured person should eat well too, and he will recover faster.
"Okay, I'll have the team arrange an easier job for you. Hmm, perfect, Jiang Zhiqing is in charge of cutting pig feed, you can just sit there and chop the pig feed!"
A day's work is also calculated in three work points.
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Wenwan again. After she arrived, Ma Debi and the others were much less of a worry compared to her.
“Jiang Zhiqing, you bear a great responsibility for this matter. Even if you didn’t see clearly, you shouldn’t have acted so harshly. Have someone take Zhou Zhiqing to the sanitation team for a check-up later.”
When he's cutting pig feed later, you need to help him a bit, okay?
"knew!"
The captain sighed, seeing that she had a good attitude.
"Apologize to Zhou Zhiqing first!"
Jiang Wenwan stepped forward casually, approaching Zhou Yunting. The two exchanged a glance, and she said:
"I'm sorry, Zhou Zhiqing. I will make sure I see clearly before I hit you next time."
The captain rolled his eyes. "There's going to be a next time?"
"Alright, let's hurry and go to the clinic!"
