July 1974 was the busy farming season.
The other brigades were all working hard in the fields.
Contrary to usual, a group of villagers from the Hongqi Brigade were noisily driving the fire down the mountain, their faces grave and their hands full of tools.
There were also a few educated youths among them. One of them, a petite female educated youth, said pitifully, "It's all my fault for making Zhiyu angry today, otherwise she wouldn't have run up the mountain."
A boy not far from her frowned, looking disgusted: "She was being unreasonable, and she brought this on herself. But you, after she treated you like that, you still chased after her to comfort her."
He looked at her with pity, saying, "Luckily you chased after her and found out she encountered a wild boar, so you notified everyone. Once we find her, I'll make her apologize to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the line in front of him stopped.
The villager in the lead paused for a moment when he saw the people on the road, then greeted them.
"Lu Chen, you're back. This is...?"
A glance revealed that he was carrying someone on his back. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Ye Zhiyu, the educated youth they were planning to rescue.
Why was Lu Chen carrying her?
Ye Zhiyu's mind was foggy at the moment, and the noisy sounds around her made her frown.
She felt as if she was being carried on someone's back. She tried to move, but found that she had no strength at all and only a faint spiritual energy in her body.
Damn dad, where did you leave her?
She resigned herself to her fate and began to mobilize her meager spiritual energy to repair her body, closing her eyes as she pondered her current situation.
Considering she is a dignified little princess of the Heavenly Dao, how many followers has she gathered throughout history, and how much merit has she accumulated?
She is both literate and skilled in martial arts, capable of traversing the heavens and the earth, and is a beauty blogger with millions of followers in the 21st century.
She even took the college entrance exam and got into university, but she couldn't even survive a small tribulation. It was a great disgrace.
He was even kicked into a small world by his father, the Heavenly Dao, for training, losing all face and dignity.
Just as Ye Zhiyu was resolving to cultivate diligently from now on after much painful reflection, a memory that did not belong to her suddenly flooded into her mind, and everything went black.
After a brief period of pain, Ye Zhiyu was filled with despair.
She is now in the world of a historical novel she read when she was in a reading slump, a novel with extremely skewed values.
I finished watching it because the female supporting character who was tortured to the point of being a complete wreck shared the same name as me.
The original owner of this body was said to be a supporting female character, but in fact she was the original female lead, and the novel depicted two lifetimes of her.
In her first life, Ye Zhiyu followed her childhood sweetheart, Fu Tingshen, to the countryside. Her best friend, Li Xi, pretended to be worried about her and went to the countryside with her, but in reality, she coveted Fu Tingshen.
The three of them became entangled in a love-hate relationship within the Red Flag Brigade. Li Xi, in a failed attempt to frame the original owner of the body, ended up killing herself and died with resentment in her heart.
After death, the ghost watched Ye Zhiyu and Fu Tingshen being affectionate and loving, and hated them to the bone. It was then bound to the system and reborn back to the time when it went to the countryside.
According to the original owner's memories, it has been 45 days since they went to the countryside.
Ye Zhiyu inwardly cried out in alarm, realizing it was a month and a half too late.
The current situation is that today, Li Xi deliberately became close to Fu Tingshen at the dinner table, and her words were ambiguous, which angered the original owner of the body.
In a fit of anger, the original owner went to work without finishing her meal.
Li Xi followed after her with feigned righteousness, first sincerely apologizing, then saying that the original owner was her best friend and she didn't want to lose her.
She hid something good on the mountain, without telling anyone, because she wanted to reconcile with the original owner of the body.
The original owner was just spoiled by her family, so she was a bit arrogant and naive, easily moved to pity, and followed Li Xi up the mountain.
Upon arriving at the destination, he was knocked unconscious from behind.
Li Xi bribed an old bachelor to bully Ye Zhiyu and then lure others to her, ruining her reputation. In the end, she would either commit suicide or marry the old bachelor.
However, judging from her current appearance, she must have been rescued by the person carrying her.
Just then, I heard a deep male voice in my ear.
"It sounds pretty good," Ye Zhiyu thought haphazardly.
According to seniority, Lu Chen should address the person who greeted him as "uncle."
He politely replied, "Yes, Uncle, I just got back."
Before he could explain what was going on, the pitiful-looking girl, who was also the original owner's best friend, Li Xi, rushed up and grabbed Ye Zhiyu from his back.
"Ah, Zhiyu, what's wrong with you? What did you do to Zhiyu?" she said, pretending to be resentful as she looked at the man.
Because the person on his back was a woman, Lu Chen couldn't fight her for it, and Ye Zhiyu lost her support and fell to the ground.
It hurts so much! Ye Zhiyu, who was already in pain, felt even worse. Her spiritual power was weak, and her body was healing very slowly. She couldn't stop.
Alright, alright, Li Xi, right? You just wait.
From an angle where no one could see, Li Xi subtly curled the corner of her mouth.
Although the current situation is somewhat different from her plan, and she doesn't know this man, it's not too far off.
Ye Zhiyu, you'll be stuck here struggling forever.
A single sentence can spark a lot of thoughts.
The villagers who came originally came to hunt wild boars, but now that there are no wild boars to hunt, they ate a bite of melon.
The discussion began, with comments like, "No way, Ye Zhiqing is so beautiful, how could she be bullied like this?"
"Who knows? Maybe Lu Chen just thinks she's pretty. We're all men, we all understand."
Lu Chen frowned as he listened to the discussion. "She fainted. I carried her to the clinic."
"Impossible! Why would Zhiyu faint for no reason? Tell me, what exactly did you do?"
Li Xi persisted, determined to cling to this man.
The man who had just greeted Lu Chen quickly interrupted when he saw things were going wrong.
“Li Zhiqing, Lu Chen wouldn’t do that. There must be some misunderstanding here.”
“He just called you uncle. You’re all in cahoots, so of course you’re biased towards him. It’s pitiful that Zhiyu was bullied when he went to the countryside to participate in the construction, and no one stood up for him.”
She started to sob as she spoke.
These words filled the other educated youths with indignation, and they all stood up to confront them.
“We, the educated youth in the settlement, cannot be bullied like this. We must appeal!” one of the educated youth shouted indignantly.
Fu Tingshen's face was grim. "We need to find the captain. We need to severely punish the murderer."
Lu Chen looked impatient; he realized that the female educated youth wanted to ruin another female educated youth.
But she shouldn't have schemed against him.
When they heard that they wanted to see the brigade leader, the villagers' expressions were complicated, and some of the older educated youth looked at the group of people with a hint of hesitation.
Li Xi frowned slightly, sensing that something was wrong, and tentatively asked, "What's wrong?"
An older man reminded him, "Lu Chen is the captain's second son."
It's not that they didn't recognize Lu Chen; he worked for the town's transport team and was rarely home. When this group of educated youth arrived, he was still out there running transport.
It's normal that Li Xi doesn't recognize him. In her first life, all her focus was on Fu Tingshen, and Lu Chen didn't come back often; he was a low-key person.
I may have seen her but didn't remember her well, since she looked down on all men whose family backgrounds were inferior to Fu Tingshen's.
Li Xi gritted her teeth, secretly resenting Ye Zhiyu's good luck.
She began to sob softly, "What about Zhiyu? Are we just going to let it go like this?" She looked distressed because she was so frightened by Lu Chen's identity that she couldn't stand up for her best friend.
Ye Zhiyu rolled her eyes. What am I supposed to do? I'm perfectly fine.
