The houses in the educated youth settlement were much the same as those in the village, with the same mud walls and thatched roofs.
After being intimidated by the village chief, Fan Yunyan dared not say a word, let alone show any disdain.
When Ling Heng returned from fetching water at the educated youth settlement, Li Dafu saw him and smiled, saying, "Educated Youth Shi, this is the new educated youth Fan Yunyan. Please help him settle in."
Shi Lingheng steadily put the bucket down and nodded.
The village chief gave only one instruction and then left without further ado.
With difficulty, Fan Yunyan, clutching his belongings, greeted the man with far from nonchalant grace: "Hello, I am Fan Yunyan."
His first impression was that the man in front of him was really tall.
He himself was already nearly 1.8 meters tall, and this educated youth was half a head taller than him.
When Shi Lingheng heard his surname, he raised an eyebrow. The surname Fan was quite rare. He reached out to help him with his luggage, went into the room, and pointed to the empty bed, saying, "You can sleep there."
Fan Yunyan expressed his gratitude.
Shi Lingheng then briefly introduced the current situation of the educated youth settlement and who were there.
Another important point is that they have just arrived in the countryside and do not have work points. The grain distributed by the team is owed to the team, so they must be proactive in their work, otherwise they will go hungry.
As the two were talking, they heard someone calling outside. As soon as they stepped out of the house, they saw a pretty young girl riding on a bicycle, one foot on the ground, smiling brightly.
Shi Lingheng spotted the girl smiling like a lucky cat at a glance. Her eyes, curved like feathers, stirred his heart silently.
Fan Yunyan didn't notice Shi Lingheng's ears turning slightly red, and quickly stepped forward to ask, "Second Sister, what's wrong?"
Fan Xiaofan tilted her head: "The village chief asked me to call Shi Zhiqing over."
The self-deluded Fan Yunyan: "..."
Love doesn't come looking for you.
Shi Lingheng was originally going to give the space to the siblings to talk, and nodded somewhat hastily. Then he saw Fan Xiaofan waving at him: "Let's go."
As they were talking, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi, the brother and sister, slowly walked over from the other side. Jiang Yi's gaze immediately fell on the bicycle that Fan Xiaofan was riding.
Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Cheng grabbed him.
Jiang Yi bit her lower lip, lowered her head and stopped getting involved in the matter at hand. She went into the house, lay on the bed and couldn't help but sob.
She and her brother had received a letter from their father, who had gone through many intermediaries. Their father had been classified as a landlord who needed to be reformed. Because they had been sent to the countryside early, they were not forcibly implicated. However, they were told to keep a low profile in the future and not let anyone find any fault with them.
She was so scared...
Fan Xiaofan rode his bicycle, and Shi Lingheng surprisingly kept up without any panic.
She thought to herself, "The boss has amazing stamina. His long legs can keep up with the speed of a car's wheels."
Shi Lingheng remained silent the whole way, while Fan Xiaofan pondered how to quietly glean information about Ruan Jiu from the big shot.
According to records, Ruan Jiu suffered greatly before she came to live with Shi Lingheng, and her health deteriorated considerably. Even though her life improved later, she could not recover.
She frowned. If she brought up Ruan Jiu's name rashly, wouldn't the big boss, who was so wary, eliminate her first?
She's a little melancholy; she cherishes her life very much.
Despite Shi Lingheng's seemingly harmless appearance, Fan Xiaofan dared not underestimate him. He swallowed hard, thinking that Yu Qing, who was currently isolated, was probably the work of a powerful figure.
Yet, not a single person has doubted it.
