Zhou Shiwei wasn't angry. She spoke politely and said, "Third Brother, that girl is Wen Qiming's unwanted daughter. They might have had something happen between them. Aren't you at all concerned?"
"If, and I mean if, that person is no longer innocent, you wouldn't mind?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shiyang's face turned particularly ugly. Just as he was about to reprimand Zhou Shiwei in a cold voice, a jeep drove up to the gate of the educated youth compound.
"Comrade Song, I think you'll be able to get things done by tomorrow. How about I pick you up by car tomorrow afternoon and take you to the city train station?"
After the car came to a stop, Liu Feng didn't rush to open the car door and get out. Instead, he turned to look at Song Lan, a smile playing on his lips, and offered his suggestion.
"No need for that. You have work to do, and besides, we don't even know if we can get things done by tomorrow."
Song Lan waved her hand in polite refusal.
On the passenger side, Qin Boyan opened the car door and immediately met Zhou Shiwei's gaze.
"You, you..."
When Zhou Shiwei saw Qin Boyan, her mouth dropped open, and her eyes were filled with shock.
Unfortunately, Qin Boyan ignored them completely. After Song Lan and Liu Feng got out of the car, he stood quietly to the side and watched the two shake hands and say goodbye.
Watching Liu Feng's car drive away, the uncle and aunt turned their gaze away, and Song Lan said, "Let's go inside."
Just as the car entered Qiaoxing Village, it encountered some villagers who asked for the exact location of the educated youth compound. Liu Feng then drove the car to the gate of the compound without any errors.
"Why are you here?"
Even though Song Lan was wearing a mask and a cashmere scarf, Zhou Shiwei still recognized him.
Moreover, Qin Boyan was standing next to Song Lan.
Song Lan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a "familiar face". For a moment, she felt that the world was really small. She could even meet the daughter next door here.
She ignored Zhou Shiwei and turned her gaze to the man beside Zhou Shiwei. But just as she was about to ask him if Qin Yaqing was in the educated youth compound, Zhou Shiwei thought of something, and immediately, a hundred feelings of jealousy welled up in her heart.
But he said aloud, "Qin Boyan, are you also here in Qiaoxingtun to work in the countryside?"
She stared intently at Qin Boyan, trying not to think about the relationship between Qin Yaqing and Qin Boyan, lest she be consumed by jealousy and lose her composure.
Qin Yaqing, that old woman, is she being taken away by her family?
Why didn't she connect the old woman with Qin Boyan?
Zhou Shiwei shook her head inwardly. No, she should have thought about it, but she felt it wouldn't be such a coincidence. In addition, the female educated youth she lived with said that the old woman Qin Yaqing had been in the countryside for several years and had never received a package from home, nor had she ever returned home.
This gave her the wrong impression that Qin Yaqing and Qin Boyan could not possibly have a relationship.
Qin Yaqing, Qin Yaxin... Just by hearing these names, anyone would probably think they are sisters.
She only associated Qin Yaqing and Qin Boyan, forgetting that there were several siblings in the Qin family.
"Comrade, is Qin Yaqing at the educated youth compound right now?"
Song Lan asked Zhou Shiyang.
Qin Boyan ignored Zhou Shiwei as usual.
"You are...?"
Zhou Shiyang and Song Lan met eyes, their gazes revealing a clear curiosity.
"I am Qin Yaqing's sister-in-law."
Song Lan took off her mask and responded with a smile.
Zhou Shiyang paused for a moment, then said, "Qin Zhiqing is here. I'll take you in."
Song Lan: "Thank you!"
Zhou Shiwei disliked Song Lan and felt that the reason she was sent to the countryside by her family was largely due to Song Lan and his wife. In other words, it was Song Lan and Qin Yanzheng who caused her to be abandoned by her parents in the remote corner of Qiaoxingtun to suffer.
She glared at Song Lan, and as Qin Boyan walked past her, she grabbed his arm and said angrily, "Qin Boyan, why are you pretending not to know me?"
"Let go!"
Qin Boyan frowned and reprimanded him.
"I'm not letting go, what can you do about it?"
Zhou Shiwei immediately grabbed Qin Boyan's arm.
"Zhou Shiwei!"
Before Qin Boyan could lash out, Zhou Shiyang stopped in his tracks, turned around to look at Zhou Shiwei, his eyes sharp and his tone unusually cold: "Let go of that male comrade!"
"I don't want to! Qin Boyan and I are classmates, and our families live next door. I want to talk to him now. Third Brother, you go ahead with your work!"
Zhou Shiwei wouldn't let go.
Qin Boyan didn't have much patience to argue with Zhou Shiwei. He used a little force on his arm to free himself.
"Qin Boyan, you bastard!"
Watching Qin Boyan catch up with Song Lan and enter the educated youth compound, Zhou Shiwei stomped her feet in anger, her eyes almost overflowing with rage: "I hate you, Qin Boyan, you'll regret this!"
Zhou Shiyang knocked on the door of the female educated youth dormitory.
"Qin Yaqing! Qin Yaqing, your family has come to see you!"
As his voice rang out, the door to the female educated youth dormitory creaked open, and several female educated youths quickly rushed to the door.
Upon seeing Song Lan's appearance, they all involuntarily gasped.
It's inevitable that they were amazed, but some of them became jealous after the experience, and their gazes toward Song Lan became critical.
Song Lan took in the glances of the female educated youths, but remained unmoved. With a slight smile in her eyes, she said, "I am Qin Yaqing's sister-in-law. Hello."
"Hello."
Several female educated youths returned the greeting, but their expressions were not very pleasant due to their jealousy.
Qin Boyan stood quietly behind Song Lan.
"Sister-in-law..."
Qin Yaqing appeared at the dormitory entrance, staring intently at Song Lan, without saying a word for a long time.
Is my older brother married?
That's true. She's been away from home for several years, so it's normal for her older brother to get married during that time. But isn't this sister-in-law a bit too young? And why is she suddenly here?
