Zhou Ying covered her cheek and glared angrily at the two of them, wanting to fight back, but she was afraid of Qin Xiaoxiao's retaliation, so she could only swallow her anger.
But expressing gratitude is out of the question, and she'll need to find someone to sympathize with her.
Without a second thought, Zhou Ying turned around and burst into tears in front of Jiang Xiaotian.
"Waaaaah... Captain, look at them! They're hitting people, aren't you going to do anything about it? Isn't this bullying?"
Jiang Xiaotian felt regret once again.
This job is impossible to do. Squad leader, let whoever wants to do it do it!
Jiang Xiaotian took a deep breath and looked at Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Yu, "You two, can't you talk things out properly? How could you resort to violence? Look how badly you beat Zhou Zhiqing, his face is all swollen."
"Alright then, Zhou Zhiqing, don't even think about getting Su Yun's room. Consider it Qin Zhiqing and Su Zhiqing's apology to you."
Zhou Ying was stunned after hearing this.
I got hit, and instead of punishing them and helping me hit them back, or making them apologize, you told me not to occupy Su Yun's room. Is this punishment? This is blatant favoritism!
Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Yu exchanged a glance, quite satisfied with Jiang Xiaotian's decision. The two beauties then gave Jiang Xiaotian a bright smile without hesitation.
Still feeling somewhat guilty, Jiang Xiaotian was immediately won over by those two smiles, putting Zhou Ying's grievances to the back of his mind, and felt that this was the best decision he had ever made since becoming a squad leader.
Jiang Xiaotian straightened his small frame and smiled at Zhou Ying, saying, "Since you have no objections, then it's decided."
Zhou Ying was so angry her head was about to explode.
What do you mean she had no objections? She didn't say a word at all, okay?
Jiang Xiaotian didn't care about that. Seeing that Zhou Ying didn't speak and had closed her eyes, he assumed she agreed with his decision. So he continued, "That's it then. That's about it for today's meeting. Do you have anything else to say? If not, everyone can leave now."
Before the other educated youths could speak, Jiang Xiaotian was the first to stand up and hurriedly left as if being chased by dogs.
As soon as Jiang Xiaotian left, Lü Zhaodi moved, taking long strides and disappearing in a flash.
Qin Xiaoxiao held Su Yun's hand with one hand and Su Yu's hand with the other. Su Yu, holding onto the bewildered Mu Jin, led them to the door. Qin Xiaoxiao gave Liu Meijuan a look before the four of them quickly left at almost a jog.
The remaining people were quick as well, and before Zhou Ying could even react, she was all alone in the room.
Zhou Ying was dumbfounded, looking at the empty room, she felt like crying but had no tears.
If she had known Qin Xiaoxiao had such a powerful background, she would never have said anything to offend her.
Now, not only has she offended Qin Xiaoxiao, but the people at the educated youth compound also don't have a good impression of her. As a result, her days in Qinjiagou will probably be difficult in the future.
Qin Xiaoxiao and her group quickly returned to the Su sisters' room. Su Yun had recovered by now and was sitting on the heated kang, drinking water from a cup. Su Yu was busy pouring water for everyone on the ground.
Taking the water glass and holding it in her hands, Qin Xiaoxiao comfortably squinted her eyes.
"This Zhou Ying is so troublesome. She even wants to live in your room by herself. I don't know what she's thinking."
Su Yu snorted indignantly, "Ugly people are always up to no good. This Zhou Ying is no good. You should stay away from her in the future and don't let her scheme against you."
She knew that her sister had feelings for Qin Ye, and the two were getting along very well. If nothing unexpected happened, they would be able to settle down by spring. Now it was just a matter of when Qin Ye would express his feelings.
Su Yu sees Qin Ye as her future brother-in-law and Qin Xiaoxiao as her own sister. Zhou Ying immediately took a liking to her ideal future brother-in-law and wanted to snatch him away from her sister. She was also dissatisfied with Qin Xiaoxiao and made sarcastic accusations against her, so of course Su Yu was unhappy.
Mu Jin looked at Su Yu, then at Su Yun, puzzled.
Seeing her confused expression, Su Yu couldn't help but laugh. She leaned close to her ear and told her about the somewhat ambiguous relationship between Qin Ye and Su Yun.
Su Yu's voice wasn't loud, and since the room was small and everyone was sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) so close together, naturally everyone heard her.
Su Yun blushed and glared at Su Yu, but didn't stop her. She quickly glanced at Qin Xiaoxiao and saw her looking at her with bright eyes, which made her even more embarrassed.
Liu Meijuan drank her water with peace of mind, smiling as she looked at everyone in the room. Suddenly, she felt old, as if she were from a different generation than them.
After listening, Mu Jin finally understood and looked at Su Yun, "That Qin Ye is not bad, you have good taste."
Upon being praised, Su Yun was stunned for a moment, then her ears quickly turned red, and she covered her face, turned around, and threw herself onto the quilt.
Mu Jin was taken aback, not understanding why Su Yun was suddenly shy, since she hadn't said anything.
Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when she saw Mu Jin's blank and silly expression.
How could a strong female protagonist who transmigrated from the 21st century and has been single for over thirty years understand Su Yun's girlish mentality? Our female protagonist, Mu Jin, is completely clueless about love, only knowing how to study traditional Chinese medicine and thinking about how to improve the status of traditional Chinese medicine in the world's medical system. No matter when or where, she is a ruthless person whose mind is only on the future development of traditional Chinese medicine!
Someone like Mu Jin is simply not suited for dating. The only man who can tame her is someone many times stronger than her, someone she admires.
Of course, younger men might also sway her heart, but not many, and it's unlikely they'll end up together.
Qin Xiaoxiao looked at the stunned Mu Jin with amusement, then glanced at Liu Meijuan.
I wonder who this beautiful lady will end up with?
In the afternoon, Jiang Xiaotian told Qin Feng about Mu Jin's idea of building a house.
After listening, Qin Feng remained silent for a long time, smoking even more heavily.
To be honest, he didn't want Ren Keren to move into the backyard; he was afraid Xiaoxiao would be bullied.
But Xiaoxiao lived alone in the backyard, and he was worried that she might get into danger. It would be nice for her to have someone with her.
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"She will pay for the house repairs herself, and the village can send people to help. It should be completed before spring so as not to delay production."
In a few months, Xiaoxiao will be married into the Su family. It's just a matter of a few months. As long as Mu Zhiqing doesn't cause trouble and doesn't give him and Xiaoxiao any more trouble, he can still tolerate it.
Seeing that Qin Feng had agreed, Jiang Xiaotian quickly reciprocated.
“That’s feasible. Mu Zhiqing said she’ll pay for it herself, and our village can provide help. She’ll also pay for the helpers building the house. But since there’s nowhere to cook, she plans to pay the villagers accordingly.”
Qin Feng nodded.
She's quite sensible; she even knows how to calculate money to give to the villagers.
"Okay, that's settled then. I'll go out and find a few people in a bit, and we'll start construction tomorrow."
We can rest for a few more days as we finish this quickly. In just over a month, spring plowing will begin, and nothing can delay it.
After returning home, Jiang Xiaotian found Mu Jin and told her what had happened.
Mu Jin had no objections, and the matter was settled.
To explain, Qin Xiaoxiao's feelings for Su Lu are not deep at the moment. She likes him, but not much, and he hasn't reached the level of love yet. Most of the time, she is attracted to his looks. The only reason she agreed to marry him is because Su Lu is suitable. He is good-looking and she is the one she is most familiar with. Moreover, she will have to get married sooner or later, so naturally she has to find someone she is familiar with who is also good-looking.
The romance between Qin Ye and Su Yun will soon blossom, and the two will get engaged and married.
Zhou Ying won't be around for long. Guess who she'll end up with?
Su Yu hasn't decided who to assign him yet. How about Zou Jing? This guy is good-looking, rich, and cunning. He's perfect for the carefree and innocent Su Yu.
