What will happen when the busy farming season arrives? I really don't know how anxious and worried the village chief and the brigade leader will be then! After saying that, she shook her head helplessly.
Qin Xiuxiu, however, raised her head dismissively, a hint of disdain flashing in her bright, watery eyes, and replied confidently.
"Hmph, we come from the city. Do you think our status is the same as yours from the countryside?"
"Besides, I'm still a high school student! I'm very knowledgeable. Once we get to the village, those country bumpkins will naturally treat us politely and will definitely arrange some easy jobs for us!"
After speaking, she slightly raised her head, like a proud peacock, and proudly raised her delicate chin, as if she had become the focus of everyone's attention.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiaoxiao, who was standing to the side, was first stunned, and then her gaze was fixed on Qin Xiuxiu, as if she were looking at a hopeless idiot.
Qin Xiuxiu was still talking enthusiastically.
Finally, she could no longer suppress her dissatisfaction, and a cold smile appeared on her lips as she mocked!
"Oh ho, so sending you so-called city people to the countryside is just to enjoy a life of leisure? Easy work, you say? How ridiculous!"
"And another thing, what's so great about high school students? My brother and I just graduated from high school last year! We were so arrogant!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiuxiu's once pretty eyes widened instantly, becoming as big as copper bells, her face filled with suspicion, and she began to shout at the top of her lungs.
"What? How is that possible! Absolutely impossible! Look at yourself, so young, how could you have already graduated from high school? Humph, stop lying to me!"
She was shouting excitedly and shaking her head repeatedly, as if trying to shake this unbelievable fact out of her mind.
However, Shen Xiaoxiao remained unusually calm in the face of Qin Xiuxiu's doubts and distrust.
She didn't even bother arguing with the other person; she simply reached into her pocket—actually, she took out her high school diploma from her personal storage space—and waved it lightly in front of everyone.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Xiaoxiao's small mouth began to speak like a machine gun: "Hey lady, do you really think that as long as you graduate from high school and are still a high school student, and you come to the countryside, people have to treat you like an ancestor?"
"Please, wake up! Think about it again. Among all the people who came with you, isn't every single one of them a high school student?"
"Do you really think that only city people can afford to go to high school, while we country folk don't have that ability? Where do you get the confidence to think that you're the only high school student in the whole world?"
Shen Xiaoxiao's words struck Qin Xiuxiu like a sudden storm, leaving the latter no time to respond.
Finally, Qin Xiuxiu was trembling with anger, her eyes reddened, and she burst into tears. "You've gone too far! I'm going to report you!"
"Hey! My temper's finally flaring up today! Go ahead and sue me if you dare, I'm right here waiting, hurry up and go!"
Shen Xiaoxiao glared angrily, put her hands on her hips, and leaped off the swaying oxcart. After landing steadily, she strode straight toward Qin Xiuxiu.
When she got to Qin Xiuxiu, she stared intently into her eyes without any hesitation, her gaze seeming to spit fire.
"Hmph! You want to complain, don't you? Come on, I'll tell you where to complain. The Youth Affairs Office, the Police Station, or the Revolutionary Committee—choose whichever you want, and I'll show you the way!"
Shen Xiaoxiao rattled off a string of words like firecrackers, leaving Qin Xiuxiu stunned. The tears that were originally on her face seemed to be frozen in place, and she forgot to fall.
Qin Xiuxiu was completely bewildered: What was going on? Normally, shouldn't this person be terrified and beg for forgiveness when they heard her say she was going to complain?
But this person in front of me was different; not only did he show no fear, he became increasingly aggressive.
Before she could think further, Shen Xiaoxiao spoke again, "Are you going to sue or not? If not, then get out of my way and stop getting in my way and dawdling around!"
"I need to get home for lunch, or I'll miss it!" Shen Xiaoxiao muttered to herself as she waved her hand impatiently.
Qin Xiuxiu bit her lip tightly, her face as pale as paper. Her eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, as if she had been scared out of her wits, and she dared not utter a single word.
Lin Huanhuan, who came with her, was equally silent. The words she wanted to say to plead for her friend were stuck in her throat, and she could only stand silently to the side, even her breathing became cautious.
At this moment, the educated youth around them looked at each other in bewilderment, their faces showing fear and unease.
Only Dai Xingyun and Xiahou Jie maintained the same expression as usual.
The other educated youth huddled together like a flock of frightened birds, not daring to utter a sound.
Just kidding! With Shen Xiaoxiao's sharp tongue, she only said a few words, and Qin Xiuxiu was already crying her eyes out.
With such impressive eloquence, who would dare to be so reckless as to approach her and invite trouble? That would be blatantly asking for trouble!
As a result, the scene fell into dead silence for the rest of the long journey, and no one dared to make the slightest noise.
Everyone kept their heads down and hurried on their way, afraid of attracting Shen Xiaoxiao's attention or angering this "sharp-tongued" person.
Shen Xiaoxiao, who was walking at the front of the group, would turn around from time to time and scan everyone with her bright eyes.
Whenever she noticed someone staggering and about to give up, she would kindly stop and call out for everyone to rest for a while.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt as if they had been granted a pardon and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Before long, Shen Xiaoxiao urged again, "Alright, alright, stop dawdling and get up to keep going!"
Despite their reluctance, everyone obediently got up and, dragging their exhausted bodies, continued their journey home.
They traveled on and off, and although the journey was arduous, they were fortunate to escape unscathed.
Finally, the group returned to the village safely and smoothly.
As you walk and stop, time seems to stretch out infinitely.
Normally, this journey would take Shen Xiaoxiao less than an hour to complete, but today it felt unusually long.
