The beating has already been done.

Yin Zhihe vowed to teach Lu Jiaojiao a lesson.

The louder Lu Jiaojiao screamed, the harder Yin Zhihe beat her.

It was fortunate that Lu Jiaojiao was lucky to die, as the educated youth moved to the old house of the Yin family, which was quite close to the current Yin family.

Hearing Lu Jiaojiao screaming for help, the female educated youth who had participated in several activities organized by the Women's Federation hurried to the brigade office to call for help.

Over at the brigade clinic, Lu Baiwei's third aunt Ye Hongying was still helping to make the last pot of rice candy. She had just spread the fried rice candy into the mold and was hammering it tightly.

Before she had finished her work, Zhao Lingling and Feng Shishi came to Lu Baiwei's house.

"Director Ye, is Director Ye here?"

Director Ye, whom Zhao Lingling and Feng Shishi call, is Lu Baiwei's third aunt.

She was the women's director elected by the Xiangyang Brigade. Whether they were educated youth or the women and young wives in the village, they all respectfully called her Director Ye.

“Yes!”

Hearing someone calling her, Ye Hongying threw the work in her hands to Tang Yunling.

She wiped the rice candy crumbs on her hands on her apron and walked out of the kitchen.

"Zhao Zhiqing, Feng Zhiqing, I'm helping to make rice candy at Weiwei's house today. What can I do for you?"

"Director Ye, please go to the Yin family and check. Yin Zhihe beat Lu Jiaojiao again. Lu Jiaojiao screamed miserably. We in the educated youth camp could hear it."

Zhao Lingling said anxiously, "We, the educated youth who went to the brigade to collect grain, have already gone to Yin's house to mediate the fight. Director Ye, please go over quickly. Yin Zhihe is still beating people during the New Year's Day. Don't let him get hurt."

Zhao Lingling is an enthusiastic person and is genuinely worried about Lu Jiaojiao.

The reason why Feng Shishi came along to call for help was not because she sympathized with Lu Jiaojiao.

The daughter-in-law of the Yin family could have gone to the Women's Federation in the county to file a complaint, but they had to drag her into this relationship with Yin Zhihe, ruining her reputation at the educated youth center.

Lu Jiaojiao's life or death has nothing to do with her. She came to the clinic to discuss something with He Ting.

However, Zhao Lingling is a really enthusiastic person. Especially after participating in several activities organized by the Women's Federation, her thoughts have become even more positive.

Zhao Lingling enthusiastically made the trip to support her work.

Ye Hongying gave her a handful of chopped rice candy.

Of course, no matter how much she disliked Feng Shishi, she still gave her some points. As the director of the women's department of the brigade, the difference in treatment could not be too obvious.

Ye Hongying asked Tang Yunling to help Lu Baiwei cut the sugar, and then she took Zhao Lingling out. However, Feng Shishi was reluctant to leave, and she looked around while chewing rice candy.

Seeing He Ting and Zhou Yanfeng coming back with a cart of grain, Feng Shishi's eyes lit up.

"Brother He Ting, it's great that you and Zhou Yanfeng are together. I have something to tell you."

"We received food at the brigade office today, and the people in our educated youth camp have planned to have a New Year's Eve dinner together. You and Zhou Yanfeng are also part of the educated youth camp, so why don't we get together to have some fun during the New Year!"

"Feng Shishi, go have fun on your own."

Before He Ting could speak, Zhou Yanfeng refused on his behalf: "Brother Ting and I have families, so we must eat New Year's Eve dinner with our families."

Feng Shishi didn't care whether Zhou Yanfeng wanted to have the New Year's Eve dinner together. What she wanted was for He Ting to be with the people from the educated youth point.

In this case, Lu Baiwei will definitely make trouble with him.

Feng Shishi ignored Zhou Yanfeng's boasting about having a family.

She tried to persuade He Ting: "Brother He Ting, we are all educated youth sent to the countryside. It would be unreasonable for you not to join."

Zhou Yanfeng wanted to scold Feng Shishi for being crazy. Who would abandon her family and eat New Year's Eve dinner with others?

Seeing that Feng Shishi was not giving up and wanted to persuade her again, He Ting simply refused.

"I won't participate. I'll make it clear to a few people I'm good with."

He Ting threw out a straight ball: "I will eat the New Year's Eve dinner with Weiwei and the three children."

Speaking of the three children, He Ting's lips curled slightly.

Of course, one of them refers to the one in Lu Baiwei's belly.

Knowing that she couldn't persuade He Ting, Feng Shishi couldn't help but feel discouraged.

"Okay then! My uncle sent me some chocolates he bought at the Friendship Department Store. I'll get some for little Qi Ranran later. There's also a piece of corduroy fabric for you, Brother He Ting, to make a cotton coat and trousers."

The weather was getting colder as the year drew to a close. He Ting was afraid that Lu Baiwei would get cold while pregnant, so he gave her the military coat that he had sent from the capital.

He was a man who was resistant to cold, and he only wore a thick sweater knitted for him by Lu Baiwei during the winter.

When Feng Shishi saw that he had no cotton clothes to wear, she felt that the opportunity had come.

I plan to give the corduroy fabric sent from the south to He Ting to make cotton-padded clothes and trousers.

"Feng Shishi, who are you to my brother Ting? Do you need to buy fabrics for him to make clothes?"

The more Zhou Yanfeng was with Tang Yunling, the more he couldn't stand Feng Shishi's pretentiousness.

Of course, it is also because he has already classified himself as a member of the Tang family.

Feng Shishi's deliberate act of causing misunderstanding and trying to steal his sister-in-law's boyfriend is damaging the interests of the Tang family.

In short, her behavior of destroying the unity between Brother Ting and his wife is shameful.

Zhou Yanfeng spoke up on Lu Baiwei's behalf, "My brother Ting is well off. He has saved up a lot of work points this year and is in charge of the rabbit farm on the team. He and my sister-in-law get the team salary together."

"The food I get from the brigade with my work points alone is not enough for a family of four to eat for a year. We still need your help."

"No, it's a family of five, and my sister-in-law is pregnant!"

"My brother Ting has everything he needs. My sister-in-law knitted a sweater for him."

Zhou Yanfeng even tugged at the scarf He Ting was wearing: "Brother Ting, this scarf of yours was also knitted by my sister-in-law, right? The stitches are so fine, better than the ones bought in department stores."

"Brother Ting, you look so elegant and graceful wearing the scarf knitted by my sister-in-law. No wonder some female educated youth are paying attention to you..."

He who keeps company with vermilion becomes red, and he who keeps company with ink becomes black!

The more Zhou Yanfeng spent time with Tang Yunling, the more he learned her skills in arguing with others.

Feng Shishi had originally planned to come to the brigade clinic to express her concern for He Ting, but Zhou Yanfeng's actions made her cry.

"Zhou Yanfeng, you bastard!"

Feng Shishi's eyes turned red with anger, tears welling up in her eyes: "Brother He Ting, Zhou Yanfeng is bullying me."

Feng Shishi looked pitiful and asked He Ting for help, but He Ting carried food into the house one trip at a time and ignored Feng Shishi.

Feeling very aggrieved, Feng Shishi was about to go forward and pull He Ting's clothes, but a tall man with sleek black hair, holding a briefcase and a large canvas bag in his hand, was peeking in front of the red brick house.

Ignoring the pretty Feng Shishi, he glanced at He Ting and then at Zhou Yanfeng.

Finally, his eyes fell on He Ting: "You are my nephew-in-law He Ting, right?"

He Ting thought he looked familiar. Seeing him looking around, he was about to ask him who he was looking for, but he didn't expect him to call him nephew-in-law directly.

Zhou Yanfeng was still confused after arguing with others.

He Ting asked tentatively: "Fourth uncle?"

"Yes, it's me."

Tang Jinghai was so happy that he laughed out loud: "My brother said that you are handsome, upright and a good man."

"As expected, my nephew's husband is a handsome man."
