Soon, Xu Yanhong returned to the educated youth settlement.
Seeing that her face looked off, one of the female educated youths asked her if something had happened.
It must be said that Xu Yanhong is quite cunning.
She deliberately hesitated and refused to answer.
Only after attracting the attention of all the female educated youth did she reveal that she wanted to borrow some food from Gao Yan. As a result, Gao Yan had a lewd thought and told her about his attempt to take advantage of her.
Upon hearing this, the female educated youth in the room immediately became indignant and said they would go find Gao Yan to settle accounts right away.
However, neither Sheng Jiaojiao nor Bai Yuxiu made a statement.
Bai Yuxiu remained silent because she simply believed that one shouldn't judge Gao Yan's behavior based solely on one person's opinion.
Sheng Jiaojiao did not express her opinion, but she believed that Gao Yan was not that kind of person. After all, Gao Yan's character had been quite good during this period.
Moreover, she didn't like Xu Yanhong either. This woman wasn't proactive in her work, was very pretentious, and was quite good at seducing men. Most of her daily work was done for her by the two male educated youths, Ma Xiaodong and Chen Yuhua.
Immediately afterwards, the female educated youth gathered a few other male educated youths and prepared to go to Gao Yan's place to settle accounts with him.
Gao Yan, who witnessed this scene, smiled disdainfully.
They took out a table full of food and drinks and started eating and drinking.
The educated youth settlement was about 800 meters away from the landlord's courtyard where Gao Yan lived.
But they had only gone 200 meters.
But then I realized I was lost!
They were heading towards the village entrance, but before they knew it, they had returned to the educated youth settlement.
After more than an hour of commotion, they returned to the educated youth settlement, both frightened and terrified.
"So, did Cao Jianjun act like a hooligan?"
Looking at Xu Yanhong and the other four, whose faces were pale, Sheng Jiaojiao asked.
"Jiaojiao, stop asking. It's getting late, time to sleep!"
A female educated youth said in a trembling voice that although they had personally experienced being trapped in a maze, they had discussed that they could not reveal this to others, because that would be promoting feudal superstition.
If things escalate, they might even be arrested and reprimanded.
That very night.
A large number of rats appeared in the small warehouse where grain was stored at the educated youth settlement.
Then one of the male educated youths got up to use the toilet in the middle of the night and heard a noise coming from the small warehouse next door. He immediately woke up the other male educated youths and they all came to the outside of the warehouse together!
When they pushed open the small warehouse door and shone their flashlights on the swarms of rats, they were all terrified and their skin crawled.
But then they realized that the rats were eating their food.
They immediately looked for sticks to drive away the rats.
After they chased the rats away, the female educated youths woke up.
After inspecting the grain, their faces all turned extremely grim.
Because their grain had been eaten up so much that less than 100 jin remained.
This amount of food will only last them a few days!
After carrying the remaining food back to their room, they couldn't sleep.
the next day.
The educated youth stormed over to Gao Yan's side.
"Cao Jianjun, I'm asking you, are you going to make a lewd move on Comrade Xu Yanhong?"
Ma Xiaodong was Xu Yanhong's suitor, and naturally he had to stand up for her when she was wronged!
“That’s right, Cao Jianjun. I originally thought you were a good person, but I didn’t expect you to be so shameless!” another female educated youth shouted angrily.
"stop!"
Gao Yan raised his hand: "When did I ever act like a hooligan towards her?"
"Xu Yanhong, you tell us!"
The female educated youth pulled Xu Yanhong out.
"Maybe we should just forget about it!"
Xu Yanhong feigned timidity and said.
"Don't be afraid, everyone will stand up for you. Cao Jianjun won't dare to do anything!" The female educated youth's momentum grew even stronger: "Don't you all agree?"
"right!"
Others echoed this sentiment.
"Here's what happened!"
Xu Yanhong began to describe what happened last night.
After she finished speaking, the female educated youth looked at Gao Yan triumphantly: "Cao Jianjun, what else do you have to say in your defense?"
That's it?
Gao Yan curled his lip in disdain: "Xu Yanhong asked me for food, and I asked her to exchange it for something. Shouldn't I have done that? Haven't you ever exchanged things with someone before? If this counts as being a hooligan, then you've all been hooligans!"
"But that's exactly what you meant last night!"
Xu Yanhong said, her face flushed.
"Tch, you think way too highly of yourself!"
Gao Yan said disdainfully, "If I really wanted to do something to you, it would have been just the two of us last night, alone. There was no one else in my place. Do you think you could have resisted?"
But did I ever lay a finger on you? I even kept a certain distance from you.
Besides, everything I have is earned through my own labor. If you want something from me, isn't it perfectly reasonable to ask for something in return? Just because I didn't give you anything for free, you accuse me of being a scoundrel? You're so despicable!
Gao Yan spoke with great conviction, and he even deliberately used some special methods, so the educated youth present all believed him. Even Xu Yanhong herself couldn't help but wonder if she had really misunderstood Gao Yan!
"It seems this was a misunderstanding!"
At this moment, Sheng Jiaojiao spoke up: "Although I haven't known Comrade Cao Jianjun for long, I don't think he's that kind of person!"
"good!"
Wu Xiaojun nodded: "I also think Jianjun isn't that kind of person. Besides, although he left the educated youth settlement, he left his share of food with us. His current food is earned through labor, so naturally he can't just give it away to others. Therefore, Xu Yanhong, you should apologize to Jianjun!"
