Zhong Misu deftly counted out ten ten-yuan bills and stuffed them into Hu Zhenbo's pocket.
Hu Zhenbo declined for a while, but then accepted the money.
He immediately asked Zhong Misu, "Do you need to relieve yourself right now?"
Zhong Misu nodded vigorously.
Hu Zhenbo squatted down in front of him: "Come on, climb onto my back!"
Zhong Misu obediently lay down on top of him.
Hu Zhenbo seemed to possess immense strength, easily carrying him on his back and heading towards the outhouse.
Shulan went to retrieve the lunchbox from the foot of the treatment bed.
When I opened it, the lunchbox was completely empty; not a single grain of rice was left!
Fifteen minutes later, Zhong Misu, dressed in clean clothes, was carried back to the educated youth compound by Hu Zhenbo.
After settling him in the middle room, Hu Zhenbo even swapped his bedding with Jiang Aiguo's so that he could take better care of Zhong Misu.
Anyway, Jiang Aiguo has already fled to avoid punishment.
The educated youth compound was very quiet at this moment.
After a morning of heavy physical labor and exposure to the scorching sun, the educated youth were making the most of every minute to rest.
If you can't sleep, lie down and close your eyes.
Aside from Guo Tianya, who was publicly abandoned by Jiang Aiguo.
She lay in bed, covering her face with a handkerchief, and sobbed softly.
Meanwhile, Ai Shengnan, who shared the room with her, lay down next to her, snoring loudly with her mouth wide open.
This duet actually sounds strangely harmonious.
Although Jiang Aiguo escaped, he couldn't escape very far.
He had no money, no letter of introduction, and no food. He figured he could only hide in the back mountains for a few days.
At this moment, Guo Tianya wished she could gouge out her own eyes.
How blind must I be to have fallen for Jiang Aiguo, that venomous snake?
Just now, Guo Tianya went with Ding Youliang to the brigade headquarters to call the police.
The police said they would report the situation to the educated youth office, and someone would come to handle it after the harvest was over.
A female police officer took the phone and comforted her for a long time, afraid that she might do something rash.
However, Guo Tianya has already passed the stage of being unable to think straight.
From the moment she learned she was pregnant, Guo Tianya began planning her wonderful life after marriage.
She started saving money, hoping to build a small courtyard in the village and move out of the educated youth compound with Jiang Aiguo.
Therefore, she refused Jiang Aiguo's requests for money several times later.
Seeing Jiang Aiguo's somewhat pale face, she felt very sad, but they had a child and they had to think about the child. Jiang Aiguo's parents and four younger brothers could only take a backseat.
She wasn't sure what Jiang Aiguo's attitude would be towards the child, so she tried to probe him a few times.
She remembered clearly one time when the two were on a date after work, a young woman from the village led her toddler son past. Guo Tianya watched the silhouettes of the mother and son in the sunset, listening to their soft murmurs, and suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of happiness. So she asked Jiang Aiguo, "Brother Aiguo, do you prefer boys or girls?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Aiguo frowned and said, "I don't like children."
In that instant, Guo Tianya felt as if she had been doused with cold water. She pressed, "Doesn't your son like it either?"
Jiang Aiguo laughed and said, "We already have four grandchildren with the surname Jiang in our family, so it doesn't matter that I don't have a son. Besides, I practically raised my four younger brothers myself, it was so much trouble! Tianya, why are you suddenly asking such a strange question?"
Guo Tianya sighed sadly, "Brother Aiguo, have you never thought about spending your whole life with me?"
Jiang Aiguo hurriedly said, "Tianya, you've misunderstood! Of course I've decided that you're the one I, Jiang Aiguo, want to love and spend my life with! But I have nothing right now, and your words about spending a lifetime together and having children put a lot of pressure on me!"
Guo Tianya felt surrounded by happiness again: "Then let's build a little home together, run it together, and make it better and better, okay? Brother Aiguo, let's build our own little courtyard first, it doesn't have to be too big, just two or three rooms will do, what do you think?"
"Not good at all! What's the point of building houses?" Jiang Aiguo's face instantly turned cold again. "Tianya, I don't know what you're thinking, but I'm definitely going back to the city! I can't waste my whole life in Dingjiatun! I'm going to do something great in my life!"
Looking into the almost solemn light in Jiang Aiguo's eyes, Guo Tianya couldn't help but touch her belly. At this moment, she could feel herself and this unborn child becoming a burden.
However, she had heard from the aunties in the village that most men only gradually come to like children after they have them. Thinking this, Guo Tianya suppressed her plan to immediately tell Jiang Aiguo about her pregnancy.
After all, once this matter is brought to light, they will have to get married immediately.
She felt that her patriotic brother was clearly not ready yet, and she hadn't saved enough money to build a house.
After making up her mind, she began writing to her family more frequently to ask for money.
Furthermore, when Jiang Aiguo asked her for money again, she resolutely refused.
She didn't expect that Jiang Aiguo would start giving her the cold shoulder because of this.
But she also had her own way of dealing with it—jealousy is always the best weapon against men—so she picked up Hu Zhenbo again.
He was appeasing both sides and stirring up trouble, feeling quite in control.
They even fought over themselves.
Looking back now, I feel like a joke.
Now, she doesn't plan to keep this child anymore. What good can the offspring of a venomous snake be?
The thought of Jiang Aiguo being arrested and spending his life in prison, while she would abort his only child, made Guo Tianya feel extremely relieved.
She wiped away her tears. She still had to go to work in the afternoon, so she needed to take a nap as soon as possible.
She was a strong woman and showed none of the symptoms typical of early pregnancy.
It's been three months, and my lower abdomen is only slightly protruding.
She has a long life ahead of her, and Jiang Aiguo and the unborn child in her belly should not be an obstacle to her.
She closed her eyes.
However, the next second, Wang Youhe's loud voice rang out again at the courtyard gate: "Su Qiaoqiao, hurry up and go to the brigade headquarters to answer the phone! It's not hung up, they're waiting!"
Su Qiaoqiao was also startled awake as soon as she closed her eyes. She immediately got up and, without waiting for Wang Youhe, ran to the brigade headquarters by herself.
The brigade headquarters office was empty, and the telephone receiver was on the table.
Su Qiaoqiao grabbed it: "Hello? It's me, Su Qiaoqiao!"
"Qiao Qiao!" an old male voice rang out.
On the other end of the phone was my grandfather.
Su Qiaoqiao couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears, sobbing, "Grandpa! Waaah... Why did it take you so long to call me..."
When Su Qiaoqiao's grandfather, Su Qiushi, heard his granddaughter's heart-wrenching voice, he couldn't help but burst into tears: "Grandpa was isolated and investigated, and was only released today. My dear Qiaoqiao, you must be strong and don't cry!"
