Chapter 142 Besides Jian Zhiqing...



Simply imagining Wang Guihua hugging Liu Xiu and crying makes me feel a little envious.

Look, this is what it means to be a child who is loved; someone cares about everything and thinks about you.

However, she was only in a daze for a moment before she came to her senses. She was not the pitiful original owner of this body. She was Miss Jian, and she could live a good life on her own. Why was she thinking about all that nonsense?

Congratulations with a smile.

"Sister Xiu, congratulations! I hope you find your Mr. Right soon."

Both were in the prime of their youth, and having just been almost chosen for marriage, Liu Xiu immediately blushed deeply with embarrassment.

"You little brat, how old are you to be making fun of me!"

While she was joking with others, she didn't expect that she would soon attract people who had their eyes on her.

In the height of summer, the days of weeding passed quickly. During the hottest days of summer, with plenty of rain, Liu Weimin generously gave them three days off. Before the educated youth could even cheer, they saw Liu Weimin coming over with a worried look on his face, and Jian Dan immediately felt that this was not a good thing.

"Go back and tidy up the rest of the rooms. More educated youth will be coming tomorrow."

Jian Dan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, although she was also an educated youth sent to the countryside, she stayed far away.

Li Yan and Chen Jianguo exchanged glances, Lin Dongfangye lowered his eyes in thought, and Wang Hongmei immediately exploded.

"Village chief, we've only been here for six months, why are we here again?"

Liu Weimin's face darkened even more. Did he think he was willing?

Jian, the educated youth, and the other kids in the second batch were alright; at least they didn't cause trouble. Even the one who was transferred from next door was alright; he was just as good at work as the others.

This third batch is the kind of group that eats everything and does nothing right, and they're always causing trouble. The villagers have told them about it more than once or twice.

They're all from out of town, and he figured he wouldn't bother with them. Leaving home and his parents isn't easy, so he figured he'd just make do. But this isn't all; they're taking advantage of him.

His face immediately darkened.

"What's wrong? They're just responding to national policies and coming to the countryside to contribute to rural development. Is that an eyesore to you?"

Or is it that they made a mistake by responding to national policies?

"As long as you can give me a clear explanation, I'll report this to the supervisor on your behalf."

reflect?

Wang Hongmei was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was referring to. Was it her dissatisfaction with the arrival of the educated youth? Or her dissatisfaction with the policy?

God knows, she really didn't mean it that way; she was just venting.

Even Tang Cui, who was about to add a few words as usual, immediately shut her mouth, afraid of being implicated.

Before Liu Weimin could say anything more, Wang Hongmei's face turned pale, and she waved her hands repeatedly.

"No, no, village chief, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean anything by it."

That's right, that's right,"

His eyes swept over the firewood to the side, and a quick idea struck him.

"You know, our youth hostel only has two stoves. I'm worried that if more people come, it'll be inconvenient to use them. That's why..."

It's a far-fetched connection, almost completely unrelated, but nobody cares.

Liu Weimin snorted coldly and glanced at the educated youth with their various expressions.

"I don't care what you all think, I'm here to inform you, not to solicit your opinions."

The educated youth compound is the largest and sturdiest building in Liujiatun, big enough to house more than 30 people. Don't try anything funny with me.

If you don't want to stay, as long as you can find a place that will accept you, I'll give you a letter of introduction without hesitation.

Those who want to stay, you'd better behave yourselves.

You came here to develop the countryside, but look at yourselves, what contributions have you made? Aside from the educated youth, if there's even one of you I'd give a thumbs up to, I won't say a word.

Besides the educated youth...

Simple, and she even got a stare.

The educated youth didn't look too good. Well, who wouldn't look good after being scolded like that?

After the new educated youth arrived, the old educated youth became even more low-key and started cooking separately. The head of the educated youth compound was taken over by the eldest brother, Wang Jiancheng, but he didn't dare to say anything in the face of Liu Weimin's dark expression.

"Also, the new educated youth have also worked quite a lot this year. After the autumn harvest, let's see if you can earn back your food rations this year before you start talking big."

Seeing that his expression had softened a bit, Wang Jiancheng dared to step forward and speak.

"We'll tidy up the rooms for the new educated youth in a little while, don't worry, village chief."

We come from all over the country, and we are very grateful for the help from the village chief and villagers. Rest assured, we will do our best to contribute to the development of the village and will never hold it back.

Liu Weimin loved to hear nice things, glanced at the man, said nothing more, and waved his hand.

"Alright, you all know what's going on. You're all adults."

After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

The educated youth stood there silently for a long time. When Liu Weimin mentioned the food rations, they realized that the autumn harvest was just around the corner. People like Wang Hongmei, Tang Cui, and Li Jianye, who usually avoided hard work, suddenly felt uncertain. After all, they had a pretty good idea of ​​how much work they had done and how many work points they had earned.

When it came to whether they could fill their stomachs, none of them had the energy to talk about anything else.

Silently walking back to the educated youth compound, there were still several empty rooms. Li Yan and a few others cleaned up two of them together. The new educated youth looked around and reluctantly cleaned up two of them as well, just to make an explanation.

Lin Zhaodi set out the food before Li Yan and the others washed their hands and came back to eat.

"You've already had a batch this year, why are you sending more?"

"Yes, who knows how many will come this time?"

Chen Jianguo also sighed.

"I'm afraid that if a few more troublemakers like that come along, things will get really interesting."

Lin Dongfang ate his meal in silence, without saying a word.

I simply felt it was none of my business, so I listened and then moved on. It was strange, though, that the previously similar trajectories seemed to have completely gone astray. But I didn't care much. It wasn't real history to begin with, so that's normal.

In this kind of weather, simple lunches and dinners usually consist of cold noodles. She doesn't want to cook over a fire in the sweltering heat. At times like these, she is extremely grateful that this all-powerful base came along, otherwise, she doesn't know how much her standard of living would have dropped.

The next day, unsurprisingly, was also a sunny day.

Li Yan was going to mail a letter, but Jian Dan had nothing to do and had already agreed not to go. She packed her basket and took the little ones up the mountain early in the morning.

In summer, there aren't many wild vegetables on the mountain, and those that are available are mostly old. However, some thrifty villagers don't mind digging them up, drying them, and saving them to cook and eat when food is scarce.

However, it's obvious that Jianju won't dig it up.

We haven't been up the mountain lately, and the little ones are obviously itching to get out. As soon as we got up there, they ran uphill in a flash. Jian Dan isn't in a hurry; they're all ready to go out and see the world.
