Zhao Xiaotong and Zhu Fengru were left speechless by the rebuttal.
What's even more devastating is that both of them have a pink handprint on their faces.
She never expected Lin Yuxi to be so sharp-tongued.
"You..." Zhao Xiaotong trembled all over, her thoughts in disarray. She was still thinking of a solution when suddenly she felt a panic and her body began to sway.
But Lin Yuxi's harsh words were like a knife, stabbing me again.
"What? Are you about to faint? There's no clinic in Qinghe Village. If you, a woman, faint, there'll be no one to carry you over."
Zhao Xiaotong was somewhat suffocated by her words, unsure whether to feel dizzy or not, and instead, she was stunned for a moment.
"Zhao Xiaotong, are you not feeling well?"
Zhu Fengru turned her head and asked with concern.
Seeing that Zhao Xiaotong was alright, she realized that she had been tricked by Lin Yuxi and angrily said, "Lin Yuxi, don't talk nonsense! She's perfectly fine!"
"Alright, stop making a scene!" The village secretary's face was dark with anger. "From now on, mind your own business and stop eyeing what other people are eating. Stop being a bully at home."
He could easily see that Zhao Xiaotong and Zhu Fengru were targeting Lin Yuxi's family.
It's just the same village, yet things have turned out so ugly.
If word gets out, where will Qinghe Village put its face?
Will there be any more educated youth sent to Qinghe Village in the future?
"Everyone, disperse!" The village secretary waved his hand. Only Zhao Xiaotong and Zhu Fengru glanced at him reluctantly before leaving.
In an instant, the area where people had been gathered dispersed.
“They are really quite ill, and we have to keep a close eye on what they eat.” Gu Zhixiang couldn’t help but want to curse, then took out the household registration booklet he had just received. “Your household registration booklets have been issued, and the commune will issue you a living allowance next month, which is about twenty-five yuan a month.”
A family of five sent to the countryside only received a living allowance of 25 yuan a month, while educated youth sent to the countryside received a living allowance of 15 yuan a month. In the previous life, the Lin family of four only received a monthly allowance of 10 yuan when they were sent to the countryside. This time it has increased.
Lin Yuxi took the household registration booklet and said sincerely, "Thank you for your trouble, Uncle Gu."
After the farce, it was already past 1 p.m. Gu Zhixiang and Gu Chen didn't stay long before leaving, because they hadn't eaten yet and rushed over as soon as they heard about the incident.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin brought in all the extra stools. Luckily, they had eaten a lot of dumplings that morning, so they weren't too hungry yet.
No one should be causing trouble here anytime soon.
Inside, the weather was hot, so we just drank some white rice porridge with pickled vegetables and some greens. Even though the ribs were cold, we put them directly into the space and stored them in the freezer to eat later that night.
At the dinner table, Grandpa Lin was drinking white rice porridge when he suddenly spoke up, "I never expected that they would care about our family when we were so poor. We have to thank Xixi for it."
"If you're remembered once, you'll be remembered many times in the future. We'll not only have to pay attention to what we eat, but we'll also have to alter our clothes. Some buttons will have to be cut off and replaced with others. We won't be able to wear those nice fabrics anymore," Grandma Lin couldn't help but mutter.
"Give me all the older clothes this afternoon, and I'll alter them for you one by one."
