Xu Daya is back. I don't know how the news spread so quickly, but the first person to come looking for her was Liu Peng.
Speaking of Liu Peng, he was a thoughtful person. Although he didn't end up with Liu Daya, he still remembered her good qualities.
Speaking of Liu Peng, he is a really good friend. He is simple-minded and kind to people. As long as others treat him well, he will definitely repay them.
But this person is not suitable as a partner. He is too loving, has no boundaries in his feelings, and is also very passive.
His affair with Xu Daya back then is the best proof of that.
Ultimately, he didn't even understand what love was.
Upon hearing that Xu Daya and her husband had come to visit relatives, he unabashedly carried a can of recently purchased malted milk powder to the Xu family to see Xu Daya.
On the way, they ran into Lu Chunping and Yang Hui. They were all educated youth and lived under the same roof. Their relationship was not particularly good, but it was not bad either.
Yang Hui saw him carrying a net bag, and noticing that it contained malted milk powder, she asked, "Liu Zhiqing, where are you going?"
Liu Peng didn't hide anything and replied, "I heard that Xu Daya is back. We're all friends, so I'm going to go see her."
Lu Chunping couldn't help but let out a very impolite "tsk," almost rolling her eyes to the heavens.
When Yang Hui and the others arrived, Xu Daya was no longer visiting the educated youth settlement as frequently as the first batch of educated youth had arrived. Although they knew each other, their relationship was not particularly good.
Yang Hui gave Lu Chunping a strange look, because she remembered that Lu Chunping and Xu Daya had a very good relationship.
In the educated youth settlement, Jiang Chunlin and Zhao Jianhua were inseparable, always together.
Sun Jing and Wang Yaqin shared a room, so they got along quite well.
Yang Hui and Lin Hongjun arrived in the later batch, along with Jiang Juecheng. However, Jiang Juecheng moved into the Xu family's house as soon as he arrived, so he had little connection with the educated youth settlement.
At that time, Lu Chunping and Liu Peng each had their own room, and the arrival of Yang Hui and Lin Hongjun meant that each of them had a room.
Therefore, Yang Hui had no idea about Liu Peng and Xu Daya's affair.
After Liu Peng had walked away, Lu Chunping looked at his retreating figure and said, "Fool!"
Yang Hui looked at Lu Chunping with a puzzled expression.
In Yang Hui's view, these educated youths were lucky. In Xujiacun Brigade, they were not only not harassed, but were actually taken care of.
The leaders and cadres of Xujiacun Brigade are all good people, especially Captain Yang, Xu Daya's aunt. When assigning tasks, she always arranges them to places where they can make the most of their strengths. It has to be said that the captain is very thoughtful.
These people aren't ungrateful; they all remember their kindness!
They did their research before going to the countryside, knowing that life there was not easy, especially for girls, and that accidents were common in rural areas.
Yang Hui was apprehensive on her way here.
Yang Hui thought it was perfectly normal for Liu Peng to visit his friend, especially since he was going to the brigade leader's house. Yang Hui actually thought Liu Peng was smart; which of these educated youths wouldn't want to have a good relationship with the brigade leader?
But Lu Chunping said Liu Peng was a fool, how could she not be curious?
Seeing Yang Hui's hesitant expression, Lu Chunping didn't mince words and said, "This Xu Daya is different from the other Xu family members. She's too scheming and extremely selfish. When we first arrived, she approached us with an ulterior motive. Only this fool couldn't see it and still treated her as a good friend, unaware that she had once wanted to make him a sucker."
Some things can't be kept secret forever. When the landslide happened, Xu Daya wanted to kill Xu Xinning. Although no one spoke of it openly, many people still found out about it in secret.
Lu Chunping was among those people, because she cared so much about Jiang Juecheng.
If Wang Ying hadn't been faster than him, Jiang Juecheng might be the one missing now.
It's one thing if you can't have him, but at least you know he's doing well and you still have something to look forward to. But if you lose him, Lu Chunping feels that her heart isn't strong enough.
Seeing Yang Hui's still bewildered eyes, Lu Chunping said, "Don't be fooled by the Xu family's open-mindedness. Xu Daya's mother is a ruthless scoundrel, extremely sexist, and especially devoted to her own family. Have you ever seen anyone willing to let their entire family starve and send all their allocated grain to their family? I'm not talking about sending a little or a portion, but all of it. She would even sell her own daughter for her family. Xu Daya knows that if she doesn't find a way out, she might be sold by her mother one day without even knowing it, so she's been looking for a target, and the male educated youth in our educated youth department are her number one target."
From this perspective, Yang Hui thinks Xu Daya's actions are quite normal, right? Who doesn't want to find a better way out for themselves? Didn't Lu Chunping always do the same thing before?
Lu Chunping continued, "Actually, the Xu family is really good. Even after the family split up, they still protected Xu Daya and her brother. If it weren't for that, Xu Daya might have been sold by her mother and maternal grandparents long ago."
But some people have black hearts.
Do you remember that landslide?
Yang Hui: "I remember, how could I not remember? I'll never forget it in my entire life."
Lu Chunping: "Do you know how Teacher Wang Ying went missing during the landslide?"
Yang Hui: "Wasn't it swept away by the river?"
Lu Chunping: "Do you know why she was swept away by the river?"
At this moment, Yang Hui was completely led by Lu Chunping, blinking her clear eyes and asking in agreement, "Why?"
Lu Chunping gave a mocking smile and said, "She was swept into the river by mud and sand from the mountain while trying to save Captain Xu's daughter, Xu Xinning. Do you know who wanted Xu Xinning dead?"
Yang Hui's eyes widened. Was this something she could hear?
The timid Yang Hui regretted bringing up the topic.
Lu Chunping, disregarding whether Yang Hui wanted to hear it or not, continued, "At that time, mud and large rocks were rolling down the mountain. There were few people present, so everyone reacted quickly and scrambled out of the danger zone. But at that moment, Xu Daya seized the opportunity and pushed the already safe Xu Xinning into the path that the mud and rocks had to take. When Teacher Wang Ying saw this, she quickly ran over and pushed Xu Xinning out, but she herself was swept into the river by the mud and sand."
Although Yang Hui had a slight suspicion, she was still stunned by the truth: "They weren't her sisters, and the brigade leader and the others treated her so well, why would she do this?"
Lu Chunping smiled disdainfully and said, "Jealousy can sometimes kill. Xu Xinning is beautiful, capable, and has such doting parents and family. They are both daughters of the Xu family, but their circumstances are worlds apart. She is not doing well herself and does not want anyone to be happier than her. That's just human nature!"
