These two people have been eyeing Huang Tingxiu's job of recording work points ever since they got to the fields this morning.
They thought to themselves, "We both graduated from junior high school, so why can Huang Tingxiu record work points, but we can't?" The two of them were planning to find an opportunity to talk to Gu Jianhua, or give him some gifts, so that the brigade leader would choose them to be the ones recording work points.
Before she even finished work, they found out Huang Tingxiu's big secret.
These two women felt that their opportunity had arrived.
He hurriedly stepped forward to reprimand Huang Tingxiu, fearing that if he was even a little slow, Huang Tingxiu would escape.
Huang Tingxiu listened to their conversation and felt utterly incredulous.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
How can this be so unreasonable?
However, Huang Tingxiu's words made Xu Ran and Zhang Fang feel even more that Huang Tingxiu was guilty.
Xu Ran said, "You said you knew what you were doing. You even put on such a high and mighty act in front of us. So you were just doing some shady things to get an easier job!"
"Yes, before I came to the countryside, I heard people say that some educated youth in the countryside even sold their bodies in order to get a better job."
Zhang Fang's words were even more vicious than Xu Ran's.
As she spoke, she sized up Huang Tingxiu with a malicious look, as if Huang Tingxiu were the one who sold her body for a better job.
Her gaze was direct and unfiltered; you could almost guess what she meant without even having to guess.
Huang Tingxiu's face turned pale with anger.
She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, trying to convince herself not to stoop to their level. These two were the type who were always looking for trouble, and if she argued with them, she would only fall into their trap.
Who knew that Huang Tingxiu's forbearance would not stop the other party, but instead made them even more aggressive and started to speculate about Huang Tingxiu.
The two women even whispered among themselves, using all sorts of filthy words they imagined to mock Huang Tingxiu.
Then he would occasionally let out a giggle.
"Is that funny?"
A sweet, delicate voice suddenly interrupted from the side.
Xu Ran and Zhang Fang instinctively agreed, then realized something was wrong.
They looked up and saw Lu Huaijiao, wearing a loose, brand-new cotton dress, standing not far away with an umbrella, smiling at them.
Lu Huaijiao's face was full of smiles, but the two of them inexplicably felt a chill.
Who... is this?
They hadn't seen her at the educated youth settlement.
Huang Tingxiu didn't expect Lu Huaijiao to come over. She walked over and asked, "Huaijiao, why did you come?" Her gaze fell on Lu Huaijiao's protruding belly, and Huang Tingxiu became even more nervous.
I'm worried that something might happen to her if she comes here.
"I heard that the Xu family was causing trouble here, so I came to see what was going on. I didn't expect that today's clowns would include not only the Xu family, but also these two unknown people in front of me."
Lu Huaijiao, who was sleeping at home, suddenly woke up from her dream not long after Gu Changzheng left.
She dreamed that she was eating braised fish, and when she woke up she really wanted to eat fish, so she got up, found an umbrella, and planned to go to the big river at the entrance of the village to catch fish to eat.
Before she even reached the riverbank, she heard that Xu Honglian had brought people to cause trouble.
Having little entertainment, she certainly wouldn't miss such an opportunity to watch the excitement! So she turned around and headed this way.
Unexpectedly, I overheard other educated youths on the road speculating about their relationship with Huang Tingxiu.
After listening for a while, and hearing the offensive things Xu Ran and Zhang Fang said, Lu Huaijiao finally spoke up to interrupt them...
Xu Ran and Zhang Fang were furious when they realized that Lu Huaijiao had called them clowns.
"Who are you? Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to talk to us like that?"
"Exactly! Look at your outfit. You look like a rich young lady with capitalist ways. Be careful, or we'll report you and have you paraded through the streets."
These two people really don't know much, but they're quite bold.
How dare you speak to Lu Huaijiao like that?
Lu Huaijiao chuckled.
Her face had a sweet expression, and you couldn't tell she was angry at all.
"I am Lu Huaijiao, the one you're talking about! I have a lot of bad habits, such as being petty, holding grudges, and being violent, etc."
As she spoke, she winked and smiled at Xu Ran and Zhang Fang in front of her.
"So if you say anything I don't like, I'll beat you up!"
Her beatings weren't really that threatening.
However, it made Xu Ran and Zhang Fang feel inexplicably afraid.
Because they all sensed, without prior agreement, that Lu Huaijiao was truly a woman of her word…
The two of them dared not move.
Upon hearing that Lu Huaijiao had come to see Xu Honglian and the others, Huang Tingxiu quickly pointed to the side.
"That group of people went over there."
After saying that, she added, "But there are a lot of them, and they look like they're not to be trifled with. You're pregnant, so maybe we shouldn't go?"
Lu Huaijiao treated her as a friend, so it was impossible for her not to care about Lu Huaijiao.
"It's alright, Fourth Brother is here, he'll protect me." Lu Huaijiao smiled, not caring about any danger at all.
She came all this way specifically to see the Xu family courting disaster, how could she possibly give up halfway? Now that she's already here, she's definitely going to go and see.
Besides, what she said is not wrong. With Gu Changzheng around, there will absolutely be no problem with safety.
