"Ah..." Hu Doudou realized what was happening, stood up, and screamed angrily.
But she was ultimately afraid of Zhao Huanhuan and dared not rush in front of her to do anything reckless. She could only stand in the weeds and scream in anger, venting her frustration.
Zhao Huanhuan ignored her and continued hoeing the ground.
Qiu Yi watched the scene with a headache. Women are such a hassle. Why are they always arguing and bickering?
"Hu Doudou, if you keep causing trouble for others without reason, I'll have to take you to the brigade leader." In the end, Qiu Yi had no choice but to bring up the brigade leader.
Upon hearing this, Hu Doudou's arrogance immediately vanished. Being sent to the brigade might lead to being reported to the commune, and who knew what the outcome would be for him? For now, he could only endure it.
Therefore, she took a deep breath and walked back to her seat.
When Lin Yuan arrived, he saw that they were almost finished hoeing the cornfield, so he joined them in hoeing.
He still stayed close to Zhao Huanhuan, and would occasionally exchange a few words with her.
The other educated youth would often sneak peeks at their interactions during breaks. They found it incredible, feeling that their way of getting along was like they had known each other for a long time. Putting everything else aside, just seeing the two of them standing together made them seem like a perfect match. They really couldn't understand how Hu Doudou could be so jealous as to use those words to insult Zhao Huanhuan.
No one told Lin Yuan what had happened here before he arrived, so Lin Yuan didn't know about the argument between Hu Doudou and Zhao Huanhuan.
But Lin Yuan sensed that Zhao Huanhuan hadn't smiled all afternoon. He spoke to her several times, and she answered him seriously each time, without saying a word more than necessary.
After sensing that she was unhappy, he became less talkative.
They finished hoeing before sunset.
Before leaving, Lin Yuan went to Qiu Yi to ask for leave for Zhao Huanhuan, explaining that he would accompany Zhao Huanhuan back to her home the next day and asked for a few days off. He had already asked the brigade for leave and just wanted to let Qiu Yi know.
Qiu Yi quickly agreed. It seems that these two are really dating and are about to meet each other's parents.
Lin Yuan came to pick up Zhao Huanhuan, and Wen Yan deliberately lagged behind them, walking alongside Qiu Yi.
When the two of them got together, they talked mostly about their hometowns.
Qiu Yi also asked Wen Yan if she would go back home for the Chinese New Year this year.
Wenyan said she would definitely go back, and Qiuyi said they would go together.
Wen Yan agreed.
At the very back of the crowd, Gu Yifeng walked slowly, his eyes occasionally falling on Qiu Yi. He was determined to become the team leader.
Only by serving as a team leader here will my resume look better when I go back, making it easier for my dad to arrange a job for me.
He looked at Yang Man walking ahead. The two of them came from the same place, but Yang Man didn't talk to him much. He looked at Qiu Yi and Wen Yan, those two fellow villagers, and they had so much to talk about when they got together.
After thinking for a moment, he walked forward and came to Yang Man's side. He coughed lightly and said, "Yang Man, aren't we off tomorrow? A few of us want to go to the commune to see a movie. We heard they're showing a movie there tomorrow. Are you going?"
They finished weeding the cornfield today, and tomorrow they have a day off.
Yang Man glanced at him and asked curiously, "How many of you are there? Who else is there?"
“Me, Cheng Gang, Liu Fei, Wang Tongliang, they went to ask Fang Zhuoyang. If he goes too, then Qiu Yi should also be there,” Gu Yifeng said.
If Qiu Yi goes too, he can use this opportunity to cause a small accident for Qiu Yi, making it impossible for him to be the team leader again.
Upon hearing this, Yang Man nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask the others if they're going." After saying that, she went ahead to catch up with Wei Pingping, Ren Fanghua, Chen Yan, Fang Mei, and the others, and told them about going to the commune to see a movie tomorrow.
Hu Doudou hadn't said anything until she heard this, then she narrowed her eyes, looked at Wei Pingping, and winked at her.
Unfortunately, Wei Pingping had lost face a few days ago after trying to bully Zhao Huanhuan with her, and no longer wanted to associate with her. Therefore, she ignored her look and turned to reject Yang Man, saying, "I'm sorry, Yang Man, I have blisters on my feet these past few days, and I've been enduring them while working. I want to rest at home tomorrow and don't want to go out."
Yang Man forced a smile, responded, and then looked at the other people.
Chen Yan and Fang Mei exchanged a glance and nodded. "Sure, we've been here for over two months and haven't gone out much. It's been so long since we've seen a movie, let's go!"
Hearing that someone was willing to go, Yang Man smiled and agreed.
Qiu Yi and Wen Yan in front were talking and didn't notice what the group of people behind them were saying.
Suddenly, Fang Zhuoyang, who lived with Qiu Yi, caught up with them and asked, "Captain, everyone's going to the commune to see a movie tomorrow night. Are you coming?"
Qiu Yi paused, somewhat reluctant to go, but not wanting to directly refuse Fang Zhuoyang's request, and asked, "Who's going? Who organized it?"
"Gu Yifeng, they have already organized about ten people," Fang Zhuoyang said.
Upon hearing that there were about ten people, Qiu Yi instinctively felt that he had to go and prevent anything from happening to them. As the team leader, he had to go with them.
"Wenyan, are you going?" Qiu Yi asked Wenyan.
Wen Yan shook her head. Huanhuan wasn't there, so she didn't want to go. Especially seeing Hu Doudou made her want to punch her. So, she couldn't go. Otherwise, if a fight broke out, Qiu Yi would be caught in the middle and have to deal with both of them.
When Zhao Huanhuan heard the group behind her talking about watching a movie, she suddenly remembered the plot of the original book. The reason Qiu Yi's leg became crippled was because on the way back from watching a movie at the commune organized by Gu Yifeng, he somehow fell into a ravine and broke his leg. Unexpectedly, after being sent to the hospital, he became crippled forever.
However, Zhao Huanhuan remembered that the plot was supposed to be two months later, so why was it suddenly brought forward?
Zhao Huanhuan suddenly turned her head and said, "Captain, didn't you say you were going to the city tomorrow? Why don't you come with us?"
Qiu Yi was taken aback. When did I say I was going to the city?
Wen Yan, who was standing next to her, suddenly remembered some things that Zhao Huanhuan had asked her last night. Last night, Huanhuan asked her if Qiu Yi had any relatives in the village. Wen Yan said that it seemed that he didn't. Huanhuan then asked her why the brigade leader had chosen Qiu Yi as the brigade leader.
Wenyan thought about it for a moment and said it seemed to be because Qiu Yi was the most educated among them, having attended high school. Later, Huanhuan told her to pay more attention to Qiu Yi, especially at night, and to tell him to try not to go out with other people.
Although Wenyan didn't know why Huanhuan said that, she kept Zhao Huanhuan's words in mind. Now that she heard them making plans to go to the movies, wouldn't they be back in the evening? Then she heard Huanhuan ask Qiu Yi about going to the city, but Wenyan was certain that Qiu Yi hadn't told Huanhuan that. So, was Huanhuan trying to stop Qiu Yi from going to the movies with them? That would indeed prevent him from being out with other people at night.
Thinking of this, she looked at Qiu Yi and said, "Yes, senior, didn't you say you would accompany me to the city to send some local specialties home?"
