Lu Huaiyu still hasn't figured out what's going on.
They still thought he was his mother Qin Yanhua's precious darling, and that it was only natural for him to beat and scold his older sister Lu Sisi at every turn.
Lu Sisi couldn't stand Lu Huaiyu's temper, and the two siblings started fighting on the edge of the field. Whether they were too engrossed in their fight or the battle was too intense, Lu Sisi lost her footing, grabbed Lu Huaiyu by the back, and the two of them tumbled down the slope together...
Zhao Dazhuang was working happily when he suddenly heard someone report that the newly arrived educated youth had gotten into a fight and rolled down the hillside, their fate unknown.
Zhao Dazhuang was so angry that he cursed on the spot!
"These city kids, do they not want a decent life anymore? They actually fought until they rolled down the hillside? Do they want to die?"
Even though I'm cursing loudly, I still have to go see what I need to see!
Who told him to be the head of this production brigade? If he didn't go and something serious happened, he wouldn't be able to explain it to his superiors.
Zhao Dazhuang could only curse as he ran toward where Lu Sisi and the others had rolled down.
…………
This is Dawancun.
Gu Jianhua, who was also a brigade leader, also had a terrible headache when it came to managing the educated youth.
The two newly arrived female educated youths actually came to threaten him, saying that if he didn't arrange for them to be scorekeepers, they would expose how he used his connections to get jobs for other educated youths.
We should report him.
Gu Jianhua was completely bewildered.
At this moment, in the brigade headquarters, he looked at the two female educated youths in front of him with a puzzled expression: "What are you talking about? What do you mean that I arranged a good job for someone because of my connections?"
Forgive him for being old and unable to keep up with the thoughts of these brainless young people.
To make sure he hadn't misunderstood them, he had to ask again.
Xu Ran and Zhang Fang exchanged a glance and then spoke in unison: "Captain, don't think we don't know. You only made Huang Tingxiu the scorekeeper because she has a good relationship with your daughter-in-law."
"Exactly, what qualifications does she have to be a scorekeeper when she didn't even graduate high school? We're both proper high school students."
Xu Ran raised her chin, looking quite impressive about graduating from high school.
Gu Jianhua: ???
Those who overheard this couldn't help but look up at the two indignant educated youths. They wondered where they had heard the rumor that their brigade leader was showing favoritism when assigning tasks.
Moreover, these two newcomers clearly didn't know that Lu Huaijiao and Huang Tingxiu had a very bad relationship in the past.
Seeing their confident assertions, as if they had grasped Gu Jianhua's Achilles' heel, the others in the office couldn't help but want to laugh.
When this person does something stupid, it really doesn't matter who else does it.
Perhaps their gazes were too direct, causing Xu Ran and Zhang Fang to pause for a moment. They both looked up at the people around them, trying to appear as if they were in the right.
"What, are we wrong?"
“We saw with our own eyes that Huang Tingxiu and Lu Huaijiao had a good relationship, and they did not deny it. Huang Tingxiu was able to become a scorekeeper through connections.”
"Yes, why can she be the scorekeeper? We want to be scorekeepers too."
"right."
The two of them were exchanging words back and forth, their goal being to change jobs and become scorekeepers.
It's no wonder they persisted; after all, working in the fields is much more tiring than being a scorekeeper. And the scorekeeper can stay clean and doesn't sweat much while recording work points.
Unlike them, who still have to work in the fields.
The mere thought of the leeches in the field made Xu Ran and Zhang Fang tremble. They didn't care anymore; they were determined to find a new job, even if it meant offending Gu Jianhua.
However, Gu Jianhua had no way of agreeing to their demands.
As for what they said about reporting Gu Jianhua for nepotism, let them report it; he won't be affected in the slightest.
"Are you done talking? If you are, go to work. Being late will also result in a deduction of work points."
Gu Jianhua spoke in a cold voice.
Xu Ran and Zhang Fang were taken aback. Wait, this peasant brigade leader, isn't he afraid they'll report him?
Didn't you hear what we were saying?
"We want to be the scorekeepers, or we'll report you."
The two women repeated their demands.
Gu Jianhua's eyelids twitched, and he replied with an indifferent tone, "Go if you want to, don't worry about it."
This time, Zhang Fang and Xu Ran were stunned.
People are so afraid of being reported these days! They've gained a lot of benefits in the city because of this threat of being reported, even though they eventually had to go to the countryside. But isn't the countryside the same?
The villagers, who are not very knowledgeable, should be more afraid of being reported, right?
Why doesn't it work on Gu Jianhua?
The two of them couldn't understand it.
However, other people had already come forward to chase them away.
The two women had no choice but to leave temporarily, though they couldn't shake their longing for the job of scorekeeper.
For these two, there was only one belief: "If a person doesn't look out for themselves, they'll be doomed."
There's nothing wrong with them fighting for their own interests.
The two left the brigade headquarters, discussing their next steps as they walked.
"Is Gu Jianhua really not afraid of being reported? Does he have connections in the city?"
