Chapter 17 The Village Needs Electricity (1/2)



The production team attached great importance to the concept of collectivism, and Xiao Jiahua was sure that Xu Changgui, a coward, would not be able to cause any big waves.

The next morning, after Xiao Dabao went to school, she sent Xiao Shitou to Aunt Qin's house, and then went to town to send a letter to Bai Keyan.

Before sending it, Xiao Jiahua took out fifty yuan and put it in the envelope.

She didn't want her nominal husband to live an undignified life because of "borrowing money".

Along with the letter, she also sent a package of homemade dried fish as a gift.

Every autumn rain brings a bit of coolness, so the food should be preserved longer.

When I came back, the subsequent gossip about Li Cuizhi and Xu Changgui had already spread widely.

Without asking around, the news reached Xiao Jiahua's ears from the casual conversations of the aunts and uncles who were basking in the moonlight and eating pumpkin seeds at the entrance of the village.

It is said that as soon as Xiao Jiahua received the pension, Li Cuizhi told Xu Changgui according to the agreement in the bet.

What they were betting on was whether Xu Changgui would marry Li Cuizhi after she lost her pension and became penniless.

Li Cuizhi was optimistic about the man and took the initiative to say, "Changgui, although the pension is gone, the school family promises that they will not make trouble again in the future. We can live a stable life and just regard it as a loss of money to avoid disaster. After all, those two children are my own children."

Unexpectedly, Xu Changgui turned hostile at that time.

"Bah, those two kids were born to you and the second son of the school. What do they have to do with me, Xu Changgui? We said at the beginning that I would use the money to buy two temporary jobs in the city. Why are you giving it to the school family?"

When it comes to position, Li Cuizhi also gets angry.

"You have land to farm at home, so you don't have to worry about food. Why are you going to the county town? Aren't you just thinking about that educated youth's wife? It's a pity that she doesn't like you at all!"

In fact, Li Cuizhi was also afraid that Xu Changgui would take the money and go to the city to find his ex-wife, so she agreed to give the money to Xiao Jiahua.

Xu Changgui was hit in the heart by what he said, and became angry and ashamed: "No matter how much she despises me, she is still better than you, a woman who has given birth to a child with someone else!"

"you!"

At this moment, Li Cuizhi felt as if her heart was pierced by thousands of arrows.

She didn't expect that just one or two thousand yuan would allow her to see clearly the true nature of the man in front of her.

"Xu Changgui, I must be blind to follow you, get out of here!"

Li Cuizhi smashed the basin and the two parted unhappily.

For Xu Changgui, losing money is more painful than losing his life.

He couldn't swallow this humiliation, so he quickly gathered a group of brothers and went to Qinghe Village to make trouble with the Xiao family.

Principal Jiahua knew Xu Changgui's character and had been on guard against him.

She notified Village Chief Zhao in advance and asked someone to look after the village entrance.

As soon as the other party appeared, the men in the village gathered together by beating gongs and drums.

A village production team is the most united one, and now is the critical time, the end of autumn harvest. How can we tolerate being bullied right in front of us?

Even though the two groups did not actually cause any dispute, Zhao Fuda still posted a big-character poster and reported Lijia Village to the town.

If grain output is regarded as GDP, Qinghe Village and Lijia Village are like the top student and the worst student in the same class, and the mayor naturally favors the former.

What's more, Lijia Village is really poor and in the wrong.

After the village chief of Lijia Village was criticized by his superiors, he returned to the village and not only scolded Xu Changgui, but also deducted half a month's work points from him.

Xu Changgui didn't receive any pension and had no money left, so he had no choice but to give up.

He went to the Li family to vent his anger and humiliated Li Cuizhi, and the marriage between the two families fell through.

Gradually, Li Cuizhi began to be disliked by her parents at home. The whole family was ashamed and could not hold their heads up in the village.
