Li Dai and his wife have been married for a long time, so it's really hard for him to understand Xu Zijiang's devastating possessiveness. He rolled his eyes and quietly went home, not wanting to play with an idiot.
To avoid being spotted while wandering around outside, Xu Zijiang and Yu Jiu also took their watches and quickly returned to the guesthouse. They slept until dawn, then got up, packed their things, ate, boarded the train, and embarked on their journey home.
"Today is the sixth day since we came out, and I don't know how things are going in the team."
Yu Jiu was bored and suddenly thought of Li Nannan in the team. She wondered if Li Nannan was causing trouble. If she hadn't been busy taking care of Xu Zijiang last time, she would have slapped her to death. And then she came to provoke her. She couldn't understand. Are there really people who are not afraid of pain and not afraid of being hit?
"What could possibly happen? I've got Gouzi and the others watching over things. Nothing will go wrong. It's only been a few days."
Xu Zijiang said indifferently. He often went out, not to buy or sell, but to relax. He left the team's affairs to everyone for the time being, and there had never been any trouble. So Xu Zijiang was not worried this time. However, he overlooked the variable of Li Nannan.
At this moment, facing Li Nannan's 108th escape, Gouzi regretfully shed tears of resentment.
"Aaaaaah! Li Nannan ran away again! What is she trying to do! What is she trying to do! Does she want the captain to come back and beat me to death?! Hurry, hurry, go look for her again! Damn it, I'm going to tell on the captain when he comes back! Can't we just make this woman go back to her own home and stop causing trouble for our team? Waaaaah."
The dog cried as it called for everyone to go find Li Nannan.
Li Nannan knew that Xu Zijiang and Yu Jiu were going out. Everything was fine that day, but the next day she packed her bags, preparing to escape while these two ruthless people were away. However, she didn't have any proof and couldn't buy a train ticket. She begged at the train station for a long time, but it was no use. She tried to beg, act spoiled, throw a tantrum, and roll around on the ground, but nothing worked. She even thought about sneaking in by sticking close to people's backs.
Unfortunately, it was her first time doing something like this, and she was so nervous that her eyes darted around and her hands and feet felt like they didn't belong to her. The platform staff recognized her immediately, pulled her out, and gave her a warning before she slunk out of the train station.
Yu Caihong didn't pay much attention when she saw Li Nannan packing her luggage, but when she realized that Li Nannan hadn't returned to the educated youth settlement for so long, she realized there was a big problem! Li Nannan was definitely trying to run away! Even if she succeeded, the remaining educated youth would definitely have a hard time! They might even face repercussions!
They were supposed to come to build up the countryside, but they turned into deserters. How can people view them as educated youth? Many people already had a bad impression of educated youth! Moreover, Yu Caihong was worried that something might happen to her on the way. Without proof, she couldn't buy a train ticket. Many educated youth couldn't stand the work of earning work points in the fields and wanted to escape, but they all failed at this step, and then even bigger things happened.
So she hesitated for a moment, but still went to tell Gouzi. Gouzi was shocked. Someone actually dared to run away? Didn't they know that a young educated youth from the neighboring Xitang team had tried to escape, been caught, and had his leg broken? Such behavior was absolutely unacceptable in this era!
Gouzi hurriedly called his team members to go to the train station with him to catch her. Fortunately, Li Nannan had just come out of the train station looking dejected. She looked up and saw Gouzi coming over with his men in a menacing manner. She didn't stand in the way and said confidently.
"Who ran away? Can't I just come to the train station to take a look? Can't I just look at the way home and remember my family? You're not even the real captain, why are you meddling so much!"
····
Okay, I admit I'm not the real captain, it's that old woman, Dog Girl.
"Now that you've finished looking, go back. You don't need to bring luggage next time. Don't blame me for not reminding you, running away is a serious crime. And even if you run back, your documents and household registration are still with our team. You'll be a vagrant if you go back, and you won't be able to stay. If you're not afraid of having your legs broken, then keep running. Wait for the captain to come back and deal with you!"
"You don't need to say more!"
On the first day, Li Nannan was brought back. Gouzi could see her resentment, so he not only told the people at the educated youth settlement to keep an eye on her, but he also staked out the settlement himself. He stayed there until after 9 p.m., when he was so tired that he went back to sleep. Anyway, it was pitch black outside, and he didn't believe that Li Nannan would dare to escape in the middle of the night.
Um····
She really dared to do that!
Once everyone was asleep, Li Nannan quietly got up, shouldered her bag, and left without looking back. She was going to hide at the train station and wait for the staff to doze off so she could sneak onto the train. Even if she couldn't go home, she didn't care where she went; she didn't want to stay in this wretched place anymore!
But she overestimated herself. It was pitch black outside in the middle of the night. She started to get scared as soon as she left the village. She didn't have a flashlight and could only grope her way forward. During the day, she could remember which road was which, but now that it was dark and she was scared, she took the wrong turn. She walked for a long time but couldn't find the fork in the road she remembered. She was terrified and then she heard some strange noises. She didn't know if it was birds chirping or ghosts screaming. She screamed and ran even further away.
It was dawn when everyone got up to use the restroom and wash up, preparing to go to work. Only then did they realize that Li Nannan's bed was empty and her luggage was gone. So they went to look for Gouzi, cursing and swearing.
"Damn it, why did she run away again? Isn't she afraid of running into a thug in the middle of the night?!"
The dog was furious. He called a few more people to go find Li Nannan. If there were any legal way, their captain would have sent her away long ago. He would never have let her stay here to cause trouble for people!
Gouzi searched the train station, the commune, and the team but couldn't find her. Then he searched along several village roads nearby and finally found the woman in the bushes at the entrance of Xitang team village. She was covered in dirt and had cuts on her hands and feet. She was now curled up in the bushes and sleeping soundly. If Gouzi hadn't wanted to go to the bushes to pee, he wouldn't have noticed that there was someone there!
Li Nannan was taken back again.
Then they ran away again.
They kept chasing and running, repeating the cycle until the dog got tired and locked her up.
"I refuse to believe I can't handle you! You'd better stay inside! Nobody's bringing you food!"
The dog angrily kicked the door, grabbed the keys, and left. I really don't understand why this woman is so troublesome. Everyone else is just doing their work obediently, why does she have to cause so much trouble?!
Li Nannan had left everyone physically and mentally exhausted, and since Xu Zijiang wasn't around, they couldn't actually break her legs in his place, so they could only lock her up for now. Therefore, the moment Xu Zijiang and Yu Jiu returned, everyone burst into tears.
"Captain! Yu Zhiqing, you're finally back! Please save the children! I don't want to go searching for people in the middle of the night anymore!"
The dog pounced from a distance and hugged Xu Zijiang's leg, bursting into tears. "Waaah! I haven't had a good night's sleep in days! It's all that damned Li Nannan's fault! Women are terrifying!!!"
"Huh? Who are you looking for?"
Yu Jiu was completely bewildered. Looking at the dog crying pitifully on the ground, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Poor kid, look at him, he looks several years older just from being an acting captain. He's got a beard, his dark circles are bigger than his eyes, and he looks thinner too.
