Zhou Changan also looked at his wife-in-law and the woman with a headache.
That day, after Zhou Ruilan shouted out that Qin Hanshu might be Zhou Weiguang's girlfriend, Zhou Changan thought about it seriously for a long time.
Considering that Zhou Weiguang was in the army and had no chance or conditions to meet female comrades, he speculated on three possible identities of Qin Hanshu.
1. Qin Hanshu is the sister of Zhou Weiguang’s comrade-in-arms.
Second, Qin Hanshu is the object of Zhou Weiguang’s comrade-in-arms.
Third, Qin Hanshu was introduced to Zhou Weiguang by his comrade-in-arms.
Naturally, Zhou Changan had already written a letter to Zhou Weiguang to get things clear.
But before replying, all three possibilities are possible.
And no matter what his identity was, as long as he had received Zhou Weiguang's telegram, Zhou Chang'an would listen to his son and take better care of Qin Hanshu.
Zhou Changan also told Zhao Chunmiao and Zhou Ruilan to pay more attention to the situation of the educated youth Xiao Qin in private and not to show too much enthusiasm.
Who knew that these two people didn't listen at all.
In order to avoid making a fool of himself later, Zhou Changan stood up quickly, blocking the sight of Zhao Chunmiao and Zhou Ruilan, and said to Qin Hanshu: "Xiao Qin, I understand your request. I will find someone to lay the floor for you, and the curtains will be sent to you after your aunt has finished cutting them."
"You should go back today."
Qin Hanshu stood up dazedly.
"The watermelon hasn't been eaten yet!" Zhao Chunmiao wanted to keep him, but gave up after receiving Zhou Changan's gaze.
She stuffed the whole plate of cut watermelon into Qin Hanshu's hands and said, "Then take it back and eat it."
Just like that, Qin Hanshu was seen off by the Zhou family as he walked out the door holding a plate of watermelon.
It was not until the scorching sun hit her body that she came to her senses and shook her head helplessly at the plate of watermelon in her hand.
When she came, she was still hesitating whether to bring something with her. Finally, she remembered that Zhang Yao said that Zhou Changan was a person who valued his reputation very much. If she brought gifts to his house and was seen by others, it might backfire, so she gave up on giving gifts.
Unexpectedly, in the end, she took away a plate of watermelon from Zhou's house.
But I've owed you a favor, and I'll have to find a way to repay it later.
Qin Hanshu ate watermelon while walking back. When he finished the walk, he had almost finished the watermelon.
She ate the last piece of watermelon and walked into the courtyard of the educated youth settlement, only to find that the settlement was bustling with activity.
"I kept that toilet paper specially for you...what am I going to do if you use it all up?!"
"It's just a piece of toilet paper. You're so stingy."
"I'm stingy? You used my things without permission, and you call me stingy?!"
The ones arguing were Zhao Ru and Liao Yujie.
Liao Yujie was the first educated youth to come to Haowan Village to work in the countryside. Before that, she lived in the homes of fellow villagers. A few days after moving into the educated youth site, Qin Hanshu only met her but never spoke to her.
Liao Yujie and Zhao Ru lived in the same cave. Apart from the iron pot and bowls Zhao Ru bought, they didn't buy anything else. When Liao Yujie entered the cave, she was carrying a box of clothes and personal items.
The educated youth had heard of Liao Yujie's reputation beforehand. It was only a matter of time before the two of them came into conflict.
If you look closely, Liao Yujie looks pretty good, with thin eyebrows and eyes, which makes her look classical and elegant. However, she has a scoundrel and mean face, which completely destroys her beauty.
On the other hand, Zhao Ru was crying and looked like she had been severely bullied, which made people feel more sympathetic about her.
Qin Hanshu glanced and then looked away - it had nothing to do with her.
Ignoring Zhao Ru's look for help, Qin Hanshu went straight into the cave. But she couldn't close her ears and could still hear the noise outside.
Liao Yujie's contemptuous voice came.
"Look at how poor you are. You're making a fuss over a little piece of toilet paper as if you've lost gold or silver. The beggar under the overpass outside my house is more generous than you."
Zhao Ru was so angry that she started to cry, "Yes, I am poor, you are so generous, don't use mine!"
Liao Yujie was very shameless and said confidently: "I use your money because I respect you! I would not even bother to use it if others begged me to do so."
Zhao Ru looked around, wanting someone to help her, but the male educated youth stayed away, and Qin Hanshu ignored her...
Fortunately, Zhang Kangmei and Zhang Yao, who had gone out to dig wild vegetables, came back.
Zhao Ru rushed over and grabbed Zhang Kangmei and Zhang Yao to complain as if she had found a savior.
Zhang Yao just frowned and said nothing.
Zhang Kangmei, however, had a sense of justice, and immediately said to Liao Yujie: "You despise Zhao Ru for being poor? Liao Yujie, what is your background? How dare you look down on the poor?"
Liao Yujie was not afraid at all. "Which ear did you hear me look down on the poor? Do you believe everything she said?"
"You, you..." Zhao Ru pointed at Liao Yujie, so angry that she couldn't speak.
Liao Yujie got excited and imitated Zhao Ru's crying expression, slapping her thigh and shouting:
"Oh my God, why is my life so miserable? Everyone wants to bully me! They open their mouths and put accusations on me. How can I live? Wuwuwuwuwuwuwu..."
It was the first time that Zhang Kangmei had seen such a dishonest person, and she was stunned for a moment.
However, Liao Yujie became more aggressive and when she saw that the other party was not fit to argue, she scolded him even more enthusiastically.
"What's wrong with you three? You're bullying me because you have more people, right? Damn it, you dare to put a big accusation on me! I, Qing'er, have never been afraid of anyone. Do you know how many people I hit with bricks during the martial arts fight?" Liao Yujie raised her palms and said proudly, "These hands have seen blood!"
Zhang Yao saw that she was also scolded, and could not help but retort: "So what if you have seen blood? Do you want to give us some too?"
Liao Yujie glanced at Zhang Yao with disdain and deliberately said, "I don't understand what you said? Are you speaking Mandarin?"
Zhang Yao speaks with a strong Yizhou accent, which was not a big deal in her hometown, but after joining the team, everyone she met was from the capital. In comparison, she couldn't help but feel a little inferior about her accent.
It has to be said that Liao Yujie is good at poking at people's weaknesses. Zhang Yao suddenly felt embarrassed to speak again.
Liao Yujie was proud of her fighting ability.
No one can fight.
Just then, Qin Hanshu came out of the cave and went to fetch water from the jar beside the courtyard.
The brigade placed two large urns by the courtyard of the educated youth site. One urn contained rainwater, which was used for domestic use, and the other contained well water that the educated youth carried themselves, which was used for drinking.
Qin Hanshu uses space water more often, but he also has to fetch some water in occasionally.
Liao Yujie looked at Qin Hanshu and saw that she was soft, fair-skinned, delicate and gentle, and looked like someone who was easy to bully.
Liao Yujie, who was so engrossed in killing, "pau" on the ground when Qin Hanshu passed by her, and "coincidentally" spit into the bucket that Qin Hanshu used to fetch water.
"Oh, sorry!" Liao Yujie said with a sly expression, "I didn't mean it."
"You didn't mean it?" Qin Hanshu turned to Liao Yujie, and suddenly, picked up the half bucket of water in his hand and poured it on Liao Yujie's head.
Then he said slowly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
