Song Jiaojiao's face was flushed red. She was so angry that Zhu Guihua had berated her, making her face almost turn liver-colored.
"Aunt Guihua, isn't your face a bit too big?"
Song Jiaojiao retorted to Zhu Guihua: "You don't even deserve to have a daughter like that. I advise you to hurry home and take a look in the mirror to see what you really look like before you have the courage to say such unrealistic things!"
"Pah! I never said you were my daughter, you little bitch. I was talking about an ungrateful adopted daughter like you. If I were Da Meizi, I wouldn't even acknowledge you even if you knelt in front of me!"
"You think I'd want to adopt an old slut like you as my foster mother? What a pipe dream! You must be daydreaming!"
"You little bitch, who are you calling an old bitch?"
"Aunt Guihua, who are you calling?"
"You're the little bitch I'm calling!"
"Ah? So Aunt Guihua isn't an old slut, but a little slut! I understand now. Aunt Lanxiang, Aunt Lamei, did you hear that?"
Aunt Guihua has a new name, she's called Little Bitch, you all better remember it!
Song Jiaojiao raised her voice and said something to the two women standing next to Zhu Guihua.
Even if Zhu Guihua wasn't very bright, she could tell that Song Jiaojiao was indirectly insulting her. In an instant, her eyes filled with anger, and she rolled up her sleeves, ready to tear Song Jiaojiao's mouth apart.
"You little bitch, I'll tear your mouth apart today!"
To prevent the situation from escalating, the two women beside Zhu Guihua quickly pulled her back.
The woman who had been replaced by Aunt Lanxiang by Song Jiaojiao said, "Jiaojiao is an educated youth now. If something happens to her while she's in your care, the accountant and his wife probably won't say anything."
They might not even come to your immediate vigilance, but the brigade leader, the Party branch secretary, and people from the commune's and county's educated youth offices will definitely come looking for you. You could even end up being sent to a farm.
Another woman, Aunt Lamei whom Song Jiaojiao mentioned, also spoke up to persuade her: "Jiaojiao is just a little girl, why do you have to take her so seriously?!"
Besides, you were the one who started saying those nonsense to that girl. She didn't like what you were saying, so naturally she had to say something back.
"Alright, it's just a little girl babbling nonsense. Lanxiang and I didn't hear anything. Calm down, just think of Jiaojiao as a few farts that have blown away in the wind!"
Aunt Lanxiang: "What you said is disgusting. Don't say it again."
"I was just trying to persuade Guihua, I didn't think too much about it."
Aunt Lamei replied with an innocent look on her face.
Song Jiaojiao had already disappeared.
After all, Zhu Guihua was used to farm work and had a lot of strength!
Moreover, rural women are known for their sharp tongues and scratching. Although she knows a few of these tricks, she can handle Yuan Xiaoya without any problem. However, once she gets into a physical altercation with a rural aunt who is used to farm work, she will definitely be the one who suffers.
Therefore, Song Jiaojiao didn't want her mouth to be torn apart, nor did she want her hair to be pulled out or her face to be scratched. So, leaving as soon as possible was undoubtedly the best course of action.
"So what if she's an educated youth? I'm not afraid. When I get the chance, I'll teach that little bitch a lesson!"
When Zhu Guihua discovered that Song Jiaojiao had disappeared, and with Aunt Lanxiang and Aunt Lamei by her side to persuade her, she decided to save face and find a way to back down.
Both the brigade leadership and the Party branch secretary have said that we should try to stay away from those educated youth.
reason?
On the one hand, the educated youth were protected by the educated youth office. On the other hand, the educated youth were educated people with many tricks up their sleeves. If a conflict accidentally arose between the villagers and the educated youth, even if they were in the right, the educated youth might be able to turn black into white with their words.
The reason the brigade leader and the village secretary said those things was simply to scare the villagers, so that no one among them would try to take advantage of the educated youth.
This led to a conflict, which was escalated by the educated youth, attracting the attention of commune cadres and comrades from the educated youth office, tarnishing the reputation of the entire brigade and causing it to lose the opportunity to be selected as an outstanding brigade in the commune's annual selection process.
Zhu Guihua was not only wary of what the brigade leader and the party secretary said, but she was also afraid of Song Jiaojiao's parents in Beijing.
Despite her sharp tongue and frequent fights with Li Jumei in the village, Zhu Guihua would probably be unable to utter a complete sentence if she stood in front of city people.
It's not that Zhu Guihua is a coward. Well, Zhu Guihua is indeed a bit of a coward at heart, otherwise, she wouldn't have been repeatedly beaten down by Li Jumei.
But the reason why Zhu Guihua, and even most rural people, can't speak in front of city people is just one thing—they lack confidence!
Yes, one is in the city, the other in the countryside. This geographical difference alone creates a significant gap between rural and urban residents. Especially in this day and age, urban residents eat government-subsidized grain, which gives them a sense of superiority over rural residents.
Even ten or twenty years from now, this idea will still exist.

"Is everything alright with the Xiao family?"
As Song Lan entered the main room, she heard what Li Jumei was saying. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "Grandpa Xiao and the others are all fine. However, I happened to meet an elderly comrade there who needed medical treatment, so I went to check on him."
How serious is it?
Song Sanhe asked.
"If I hadn't been there, that old comrade would probably have been in grave danger. Fortunately, I happened to be there, and after acupuncture, he is now out of danger."
Song Lan responded.
"Go wash your hands and eat."
Li Jumei interjected.
"good."
Song Lan responded and turned to go out of the main room to wash her hands. When she returned, her gaze fell on Song Sanhe, and she said, "Dad, my father-in-law was taken away by people from the capital a couple of days ago."
"..."
Song Sanhe paused for a moment, then said, "I know about this. Your father-in-law has been to our house."
He didn't understand why Song Lan brought this up.
