Chunxiu continued to go to the other end of the farmland. After Lian Xiaomin handed in the prey, she had nothing else to do, so she was not in a hurry to go to her aunt's house to pick up the two children. She planned to visit the Youth League Home while everyone was there at noon.
Going from the brigade headquarters in the center of the village to the educated youth home, one first passes by the cowshed and a crowded shack there, which is where the Ma brothers and sisters live.
However, since Ma Cheng started working with Shunxi and the others and had a stable income, he reinforced the shed.
Now the door has been repaired and a fence has been built outside, which makes the house look quite presentable.
Lian Xiaomin released her mental power to observe for a while, but heard crying sounds from inside.
Ma Cheng was coaxing his little sister: "Why are you crying again? You won't eat the egg cake that your brother bought for you? If you don't want to eat it, I will!... Will I really eat it?"
Xiao Jing didn't even look at the egg cake. She smoked and said, "I just want to go to primary school! You throw things and cow dung into other people's windows, and you don't want me anymore..."
Ma Cheng pressed his finger on his head, feeling helpless because of the little girl's crying.
"Jing'er, isn't it the same for you to study with Teacher Han from the cowshed? She is also a university professor in Beijing. Do you know what a university is? She is really amazing."
"…If you don't like Teacher Han, then what about the other four? How come you can't choose a master, no, no teacher at all?"
"What can't I learn? Isn't it better than that arrogant little girl teacher?"
Ma Jing's little face was all red from crying, and her big eyes were filled with tears.
"I, I just want to have kids to study with me. I want to have a friend...Brother, wuwuwu~ I won't go..."
"Actually, actually, Grandma Qin and I have learned everything. We know everything from first and second grade primary school..."
Ma Cheng suddenly ran out of energy, sighed, and said nothing.
Lian Xiaomin also felt a little uncomfortable. She could secretly have someone take care of Ma Cheng and give him some income to support herself and her sister.
However, in this era of composition-based politics, there is no way to change the perspectives of many people.
You just have to hold on and it will be fine. The same goes for those people in the bullpen.
Thinking about something, she went to the educated youth center first, and would ask Wang Zhen when she saw her later.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Shi Weihong and Wang Zhen drawing water from the well to wash clothes.
Seeing her come in, the two of them wrung out the washed clothes in their hands and hung them on the rope.
He quickly called Xiaomin to sit under the awning in the yard, which was cooler here than in the house.
This pergola was the idea of Li Chuang, and he and the male educated youth built it together. It's pretty good, and you can eat and do other things here.
Hearing the sound, Li Chuang and Lin Youshu, who lived in the front yard, also came out of the house, greeted warmly, and sat down to chat together.
Li Chuang specially took out his treasured green tea and made a cup of tea for Xiaomin.
Last time, she gave them a big watermelon. Sharing good things is mutual.
"Xiao Min, our two new male educated youths also practice martial arts, but they are just fancy moves. They want to meet you. They are out collecting firewood now and will be back soon."
Earlier, when Li Chuang went up Daqing Mountain, he saw Lian Xiaomin teaching Xie Ling basic skills when he passed by the foot of the mountain. Later, when they chatted, he found out that she had kung fu skills.
The last time he caught Yu Lei, the two moves Lu used were also extraordinary. He treated this heroic girl as a good brother and admired her very much.
Lian Xiaomin took a few sips of tea, which quenched her thirst, and agreed.
"Okay, let's spar together. Practicing regularly is good for your health. You should also exercise more~"
Li Chuang is 175cm tall and looks quite handsome. According to the aesthetic standards of 2023, he would be considered a "fresh meat".
But working in the fields under the wind and sun every day makes the meat taste boring.
However, her skin is a healthy wheat color, which, in the words of this era, has its own beauty of labor.
He's just too thin, but there are not many fat people these days.
After talking about martial arts for a while, Lian Xiaomin looked at Wang Zhen and said, "Wang Zhiqing, did you meet that 'little hot pepper', Xie Jiao? I just came out of the brigade headquarters and saw her complaining to the old branch secretary."
"But don't worry, Secretary Xu doesn't pay any attention to her at all~"
When Shi Weihong heard this, she also glanced at Wang Zhen: "What's the matter? I didn't hear you talk about it after I came back."
Wang Zhen smiled bitterly and shook her head: "That Xie Jiao is only seventeen years old. I am five years older than her. Why should I bother with her? Just ignore her."
Shi Weihong asked: "What's going on?"
"Well, isn't it the kid who lives in the shack next to us, Ma Jing? He has a bad background and signed up to go to the village primary school. I agreed, but Xie Jiao opposed it and chased him away..."
"…I said a few words and decided to take in Ma Jing, but she said I was not firm in my stance and started to argue with me."
"I didn't care what she said. Anyway, the village cadres said that I am responsible for the school and I can make the decision."
Shi Weihong nodded: "Oh, so that's what happened. Xiao Jing is right next to us, so close. Everyone in our Youth Academy has given her some food. We watched her grow up. She is a good kid. Xie Jiao is really unkind..."
“Cough~ cough~”
Li Chuang pretended to cough and cleared his throat before he started talking.
"Comrades, you have failed to see the essence of things through the surface. I should seriously criticize you..."
Lin Youshu reached out and knocked on his head: "Speak human language."
"Well... this matter is not about that kid Ma Jing. The focus of the contradiction is hidden within our people - here is Big Lin!"
