Chapter 36 Shi Hongye Gets Beaten



"What happened?" An Qingbai asked Zhuang Zhimeng when he saw this scene.

"Nothing! Just an insignificant person."

When Shi Hongye saw An Qingbai, she felt that the two of them were very familiar, and she didn't dare to continue the conversation.

"Then Mengmeng, I'll come see you another day!" she said and quickly ran off.

With outsiders present, Shi Hongye didn't want to ruin her image, especially not to let others see her borrowing money.

"I had some free time today and got some bamboo strips to make a fence for you so you can keep the chickens in."

"Thank you so much! I've been wanting to do this for a while, but I just couldn't remember."

Seeing that An Qingbai had quickly finished building the fence, Zhuang Zhimeng nodded in satisfaction.

Zhuang Zhimeng didn't mention what Shi Hongye was there for, and An Qingbai didn't ask either.

It turns out that Shi Hongye not only had her eye on the village primary school teacher position, but also had her eye on a job in the town that cost 500 yuan.

He was a sales clerk at a supply and marketing cooperative, and the other party had an urgent matter requiring him to sell his job.

Shi Hongye happened to be at the supply and marketing cooperative when she heard this, and she wanted the job.

Their condition was 500 yuan, and they only gave her 3 days. Shi Hongye didn't have much money herself, so she thought Zhuang Zhimeng must have money, and she came to borrow it from her.

Shi Hongye prepared for both options, thinking that at least she would be happy to get either job.

The key is that she knows she doesn't have much money, and her chances of finding a job in town are slim. She's just trying her luck with Zhuang Zhimeng, hoping that Zhuang Zhimeng might take pity on her and lend her some money.

This was something Aunt Wang told Zhuang Zhimeng later; otherwise, she wouldn't have inquired about Shi Hongye at all, as she had absolutely no interest in knowing.

Unable to borrow money from Zhuang Zhimeng, Shi Hongye could only try to get close to An Guodong. She figured that if she couldn't borrow money, getting her hands on a young upstart would be a piece of cake.

Of course, the prerequisite is that he helps her get a position as a village primary school teacher before Shi Hongye will date him.

Two days passed, and then the captain called a meeting.

"Now let me explain the situation. The people who have signed up to be village primary school teachers are: Zhang Zhiyuan, Shi Hongye, Lin Jianhua, Huang Ye, An Jiahua, An Zaiping, and Liu Xiaocao. These people, please stand in front of whoever you voted for."

The final result is in: it's Lin Jianhua.

The villagers were relatively satisfied with the result; at least they felt more at ease entrusting their children to Lin, the educated youth.

Zhuang Zhimeng, Su Mengmeng, and Jiang Yanxia even went to the educated youth settlement that evening to congratulate Lin Jianhua.

Shi Hongye saw Zhuang Zhimeng and said, "Are you satisfied now?"

"You're crazy. If you're sick, go get treatment. What does this have to do with me?"

"snort!"

Shi Hongye didn't dare to tell anyone that she had borrowed money from Zhuang Zhimeng.

"You asked me for money and I didn't lend it to you, are you furious? I love seeing you hate me but can't do anything about it."

Shi Hongye couldn't take it anymore. Thinking about how Zhuang Zhimeng had repeatedly disrespected her, she decided to fight Zhuang Zhimeng at all costs.

Before he could even touch Zhuang Zhimeng, Jiang Yanxia slapped him across the face.

“You keep bringing up Zhimeng’s issues. If you want to get beaten up, just say so, and I’ll grant your wish.”

"You dare hit me? This is between Zhuang Zhimeng and me, what business is it of yours?"

“We’re good friends, so of course it’s my business. Zhimeng’s business is my business.”

Seeing that Shi Hongye was about to fight back, Zhuang Zhimeng kicked her, and Shi Hongye fell to the ground.

"I don't want to talk to you. Are you never going to stop? Think about whether you have the ability before you make a move next time." After saying that, Zhuang Zhimeng and Jiang Yanxia left the educated youth settlement.

"Why did you provoke them for no reason? You can't win an argument with them, and you can't beat them in a fight either," Wang Lihong said, pulling Shi Hongye up from the ground.

"I..." Shi Hongye didn't say anything on the surface, but she held a grudge in her heart.

Every visit to the educated youth settlement was unpleasant, leaving Zhuang Zhimeng speechless.

Zhuang Zhimeng has now translated 4,000 words. Hearing that An Qingbai was going to town the next day, she asked him to deliver it to the bookstore.

Zhuang Zhimeng still trusted An Qingbai.

When An Qingbai returned, he told Zhuang Zhimeng that he had successfully completed the task.

He also brought back 1 jin of White Rabbit milk candy, 1 jin of steamed egg cake, 1 jin of biscuits, as well as snow cream and a silk scarf for Zhuang Zhimeng.

The scarf wasn't too bad-looking; it wasn't bright red or green, but light blue. The salesperson said it was from Shanghai and would look good on a young girl, so An Qingbai bought one.

Seeing this, Zhuang Zhimeng looked at An Qingbai with a puzzled expression.

An Qingbai blushed and said, "These things are for you. Come up the mountain with me tomorrow night, I have something to tell you." Then he quickly ran away.
