Let's get back to the main topic.
Li Jumei suddenly looked puzzled and asked Song Lan, "Lanlan, why do you think Zhao Zhiqing would risk his life to save Song Jiaojiao? When we were in the village, I never heard those gossipy people say that Song Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhiqing had any dealings."
"Perhaps it was Zhao, the educated youth, who had a crush on him."
Song Lan replied casually.
"Sister-in-law, isn't that Zhao educated youth a bit dim-witted? Song Jiaojiao doesn't look like a good person at all. Any man with eyes wouldn't like a woman like that!"
Qin Yaxin thought Zhao Zhiqing was probably not a very good person, otherwise, why would he like Song Jiaojiao?
"It's just a matter of personal preference."
One is simple-minded, the other is scheming; it would be strange if the simple-minded one didn't fall for it.
Although Song Lan has the original owner's memories, this is not the modern era. In other words, Song Lan does not understand some modern internet slang, such as "love brain".
Otherwise, she would definitely have labeled Qin Yaqing, who had been chasing after men, as "love-obsessed." Fortunately, Qin Yaqing wasn't completely foolish. With Song Lan's encouragement, she stopped her losses in time and returned to normal.
Okay, aside from Qin Yaqing's example, there's Zhao Yuzhou, the guy in unrequited love right now. He's totally love-struck, doesn't know how to act responsibly, and rushes into the fire to save Song Jiaojiao without considering his own safety.
Song Lan didn't believe there was no one else in the brigade's warehouse.
"Speaking of which, it's fortunate that our brigade's grain hasn't been stored in the granary yet. Otherwise, last night's fire would have definitely burned all the grain, and then the entire brigade would have gone hungry before the autumn harvest!"
The Shisong Village brigade is currently harvesting wheat. Some of the wheat has been threshed and is being dried, while some has not yet been threshed. In short, the granaries are basically empty. In other words, the fire in the granaries last night did not cause serious damage to the brigade.
The staff hospital of the machinery factory.
Inpatient department.
Ward 1011.
Zhao Yuzhou had already undergone leg surgery, but he was still in a coma. Even though Song Jiaojiao was unwilling, she could only stay by Zhao Yuzhou's bedside.
But in her heart, she cursed Zhao Yuzhou to death, resenting that he was a burden to her, forcing her to stay in the ward and guard a piece of trash who was destined to become a cripple.
Yes, in Song Jiaojiao's heart, Zhao Yuzhou is not only a simp, but also cheap trash!
"Trash! You're trash! Who told you to rush in and save me? You're just being presumptuous, Zhao Yuzhou, do you even realize how presumptuous you are?"
I hate you so much! Now that you're crippled, do you expect me to spend my whole life on you? Let me tell you, you're dreaming!
I've only ever liked Chen Dongze. You're not even in the same league as him!
Remember this: you were the one who wanted to save me, not the other way around. Don't expect me to take responsibility for you!
Recalling the fire that happened last night, Song Jiaojiao felt that it was most likely deliberately set up by someone with the aim of taking her life!
She had been assigned by the brigade leader to guard the threshing ground last night because the wheat hadn't dried properly during the day and needed to be dried again the next day. However, before sunset, she had to gather the spread-out wheat into piles.
Then cover it with a rainproof cloth, and leave someone to guard it to prevent anyone from stealing the brigade's wheat under the cover of night.
There were four people who were assigned to guard the threshing ground at night, along with her.
Zhao Yuzhou was one of them.
As for the other two, they were both educated youth in their educated youth compound, one male and one female, and they were a couple.
The four of them did their jobs diligently for the first half of the night, but in the second half, she was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open, and she didn't want to sleep uncomfortable in the threshing ground.
He greeted Zhao Yuzhou and went into the warehouse next to the threshing ground, thinking he would sleep there for an hour or two.
It should be noted that the threshing ground and the brigade warehouse were separated by only a three- or four-meter-wide road.
Two haystacks were piled up on one side of the warehouse. During the day, children would play hide-and-seek around the haystacks.
It can be said that the presence of the straw stacks created a potential hazard for the warehouse fire last night.
In fact, both haystacks turned black ash this morning!
Song Jiaojiao hated the mastermind who wanted her dead, and at the same time hated Zhao Yuzhou for being incompetent enough to rush into the warehouse to save her...
As a result, she lost a leg, while she had to bear the burden of his life-saving grace, and even spend her whole life on it!
If anyone knew what Song Jiaojiao was thinking at this moment, they would be utterly speechless.
—I saved you, but you think I'm being presumptuous and accuse me of not being capable enough!
Suddenly, the ward door was pushed open from the outside.
When she saw who walked in, Song Jiaojiao's eyes were unusually complicated.
"I came to see Zhao Zhiqing, and I thought I'd drop by to see you too."
The visitor was Yuan Xiaoya. She entered the ward, then closed the door behind her, saying, "You don't know yet, do you? People in the village and our educated youth compound are saying that you and Zhao, the educated youth, are actually a couple. They're saying you're dishonest."
You're clearly dating Zhao, but you have to keep it a secret. Last night, Zhao was rescued from the fire and unfortunately had his leg crushed by a falling beam. And you, after being rescued, just stood there far away, motionless.
They wouldn't even pay for Zhao Zhiqing's medical expenses. If the brigade hadn't advanced the money, Zhao Zhiqing's surgery probably still wouldn't have been possible.
What exactly are you trying to say?
Song Jiaojiao looked at Yuan Xiaoya expressionlessly.
"Didn't I tell you when I came in that I was here to visit Zhao Zhiqing and you, Song Zhiqing? Are you deaf?"
Yuan Xiaoya's tone was full of sarcasm: "I know, you are a complete ingrate, and you deserve to have such a bad reputation in the village now."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I stood still because I was scared. As for why I didn't give money to Zhao Zhiqing for surgery, it's because I didn't have any money on me."
Also, Zhao Zhiqing and I are just ordinary friends, not romantic partners. If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!
Song Jiaojiao had anticipated that last night's fire would tarnish her reputation, but she never imagined... her reputation would now be as bad as a cesspool...
Thinking of this, Song Jiaojiao took two steps closer to Yuan Xiaoya, stared at her, and said, "You set the fire last night, didn't you? Your goal was to kill me, wasn't it?"
Yuan Xiaoya showed no sign of guilt. She said, "I think you have paranoia. I slept soundly in the dorm last night."
Stop making baseless accusations. Besides, why would I set a fire? Especially not to kill you? Have you ever done anything to wrong me?
She did start the fire; she wanted to burn that bitch Song Jiaojiao to death. But, luckily, the bitch was saved by Zhao Yuzhou.
"Yuan Xiaoya, stop making baseless accusations!"
Song Jiaojiao glared at Yuan Xiaoya: "At first we were friends, but then you took the initiative to distance yourself from me. If I were to hold a grudge against you over something so trivial, it would make me seem petty."
But I consider myself fairly magnanimous, and I have no reason to go against you. You'd better not falsely accuse people!
