Just like that, the three of them got on the oxcart brought by Uncle Liu. Although none of the three of them smiled at Jiang He and the others, the journey was relatively smooth.
Grandpa Liu's village was not far from where they got off the bus, and they arrived at the village before dark. Jiang He vaguely saw seven or eight people standing at the entrance of the village, holding something in their hands, probably a hoe or something.
"Village chief, you're back? These... Village chief, didn't we say that we don't want these people?" A bearded man asked as if he was suppressing his anger, "Isn't that incident enough of a lesson?"
"What can we do? Comrade Yan said that if we don't collect it this year, we won't be allowed to go to the New Year's performance appraisal." The middle-aged man who took over Jiang He said angrily.
"This..." When the others heard this, they all looked at each other, but the look they had towards the stranger in front of them was very unfriendly.
"Okay, don't blame this young man. Comrade Yan once said that we can't assume that all people are bad just because one person made a mistake." Uncle Liu thought for a moment and said to a young man standing in the corner, "Second son, go clean up the uninhabited house at the east end of the village. Let's do this for now. As for the three girls, let them live in Liu Xi's house first. Don't you have an empty house?"
"Yes." The young man holding the two children nodded and said to Jiang He and the others, "You three follow me first."
After saying that, a long-haired, cheerful woman came out. Her attitude was quite positive. "Come with me."
After Uncle Liu settled the educated youth who had given him a headache, he looked at the men on the other side who had been looking at Jiang He and the others with angry eyes, and sighed, "Mr. Liu, you can't blame those young people for this. Blame me if you want to blame someone."
"Village chief, I know, but I don't accept it. I'm your daughter... I feel aggrieved." Liu Er had tears in his eyes.
"Alas!" Everyone looked on and shook their heads.
Here, Jiang He and the others looked at their son who was leading the way in front of them without saying a word. Combined with the way the old village chief and the villagers looked at them, they thought that they might not be able to live like this in the future.
"Fuck, are we taking the blame for the trouble caused by our ancestors? We are so unlucky." Gao Youhui is not a fool. Based on the behavior of the old village chief, the recorder, and the villagers who showed that they were not welcoming to them, he concluded that some educated youth must have done something in the past to make these people reject them.
"What can we do?" Jiang He also sighed.
"This is where you live. If you have nothing else to say, I'll leave." The second son led them to the gate of a courtyard, unlocked the door with a key, and left with an expressionless face.
"Hey? Didn't the village chief ask you to clean up the mess?" Gao Youhui pushed open the door and saw that the yard was covered with a thick layer of leaves and overgrown with weeds. He grabbed the other person's arm.
"You can stay here if you want!" Erzi turned his head and looked at him. "This is not the county town where you live. I won't tolerate your temper."
Watching the two boys leave, Gao Youhui gnashed his teeth in hatred and wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Lu Mingfeng. Jiang He smiled and said, "Don't you see? They just want to force you to leave."
"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Gao Youhui could only glare at his back fiercely, and then walked into the yard.
Lu Mingfeng looked back at Jiang He, and after receiving a smile from the other party, he turned around and followed him in.
