Chapter 63 Revenge
By the time everyone reacted and pulled the three apart, Lü Zhaodi's face was already swollen like a bun.
Lu Zhaodi cried so hard she could barely breathe, "You're bullying me! There are so many of you, why are you only hitting me?"
The educated youth: "..."
Damn! I pulled the wrong one. We should have let the Su sisters teach her a lesson a little longer before we talk about it.
Su Yu sneered at the others, "See? You kindly helped her up, and what did you get in return? She turned around and pushed you into a pit. I wonder how you feel right now? I'd love to hear it!"
The educated youth: "..."
You're being inhuman, gloating in front of them. Don't they have any dignity?
Stop so blatantly trying to sow discord! The person involved is still alive!
Lu Zhaodi was furious and wanted to rush up and slap Su Yu twice, but Su Yun stood guard next to Su Yu with her sleeves rolled up to her elbows. It was obvious that if she made any move, the two sisters would continue to teach her a lesson.
"You, you...you've gone too far."
Su Yu sneered, "Why are you stuttering? This has nothing to do with us, don't try to pin it on us."
Trying to extort money? No way!
Lü Zhaodi: Is that what I meant?
Seeing Lü Zhaodi crying pitifully, Jiang Xiaotian couldn't help but step forward and shield her behind him, facing the Su sisters directly.
“It is wrong of you to hit people for no reason. You can talk about what Comrade Lü Zhaodi did wrong, but you can’t just hit her!”
"Alright, you should apologize to Comrade Lü Zhaodi and give her two eggs as compensation, then we'll let this matter rest."
Upon hearing Jiang Xiaotian's words, Lü Zhaodi and the Su sisters were outraged.
Lu Zhaodi said angrily, "Why should we just let it go like this? They beat people without any reason. If everyone follows suit, our educated youth compound will be in chaos!"
No, we can't just let this go. We have to compensate for the eggs, and we also have to pay money.
"Look at my face! They beat me so badly, it's almost disfigured. I need to go to the hospital."
Everyone looked at Lü Zhaodi's face, and just as she said, she was really about to be disfigured. Her face was swollen like a bun, and the swollen areas were almost translucent. If she didn't go to the hospital for some medicine, she probably wouldn't be able to stay alive for several days.
Su Yu chuckled, "What, you really want to extort money from me?"
"Want money? Fine, apologize first. Not just you, but all of you."
Su Yu pointed at the other educated youth, her eyes filled with disdain.
"Gossiping behind people's backs is really tasteless. If you're so capable, go and say it to Qin Xiaoxiao's face!"
I'm just baffled. Qin Xiaoxiao has family who care about her, so why are you all angry? Don't you have family members who care for you?
Qin Xiaoxiao has just lost both her parents, which is already very pitiful. Fortunately, she still has her grandparents and other relatives. Otherwise, can you imagine her situation?
Have you ever thought about how difficult it is for an orphan girl to live alone?
"You're just jealous because she has family who protects and cares for her. But when has she ever missed a day of work? When has she ever not worked just like us?"
The educated youth fell silent. They knew that this incident was their fault, that they were in the wrong, and that Su Yu deserved to scold them.
"You should be glad I intervened. Otherwise, if Qin Xiaoxiao came back later and heard this, you know what the consequences would be, right?"
Su Yu snorted coldly, rolled her eyes, and pulled Su Yun back into the house.
Su Yu wanted to give them a good scolding, but her upbringing prevented her from doing so. She was also afraid that these people would betray her and spread rumors, ruining her reputation. Therefore, although she won, she felt extremely aggrieved.
After the Su sisters left, everyone dispersed.
Lu Zhaodi, still standing in the courtyard waiting for the Su sisters to give her an explanation, was speechless.
That's it? What happened to you saying you'd stand up for me?
Lu Zhaodi glared resentfully at the Su sisters' room, then looked at Jiang Xiaotian, hoping he would give her a solution.
As it turned out, Jiang Xiaotian slipped away faster than anyone else, and she didn't even catch a glimpse of him.
Lu Zhaodi was furious and went berserk, smashing things in the yard.
There wasn't much in the courtyard except for the dining table and chairs placed near the kitchen, which became the innocent targets of Lü Zhaodi's venting.
Oh, and there's also a water tank.
"Smack!"
"Crash"
The water jar broke and the water flowed all over the floor.
Lu Zhaodi was terrified, staring at the broken water vat, tears welling up in her eyes.
At this moment, Ding Yuqing, an older educated youth, came out and said unhurriedly, "There is only one water tank in the educated youth compound. If you broke it, you will have to pay for it. Remember to buy a new one tomorrow."
After saying that, Ding Yuqing slowly went back into the house and closed the door.
"ah!"
Lu Zhaodi was so angry that she couldn't help but howl, but no one came out to see her anymore, not even Miao Feifei.
After Lü Zhaodi returned to her room in a huff, Qin Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the foot of the courtyard wall, stood up, flicked the sunflower seed shells off her clothes, and glanced at the gate with a cold smile.
They're so ungrateful, daring to make fun of her. Just you wait.
Qin Xiaoxiao wasn't going to tolerate them, and went straight to the village office to find Qin Feng.
After hearing what happened, Qin Feng was furious. He smashed his teacup and was about to go to the educated youth compound to get revenge on Qin Xiaoxiao.
Qin Xiaoxiao quickly pulled him back, "Grandpa, don't go. I only heard it from outside, I didn't go in. If this gets out, there won't be any witnesses. Besides, if you go, the first people they'll suspect are the Su sisters."
The Su sisters have been good to me; I can't let them down.
What if they ostracize them in the future and I can't help them?
"Sir, I can't swallow this, but I can't confront them in front of them. So, I'm leaving the rest to you."
Qin Feng understood immediately.
With a wave of his hand, he said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
The next day, when the educated youth went to work, they clearly sensed that something was wrong.
"The new educated youth have been here for more than a month. As for the old educated youth, let's not talk about them. They've been working in Qinjiagou for several years and they're quite strong."
As you've seen, not a drop of rain has fallen this month. You'll need to fetch water for the next few days.
Jiang Xiaotian's eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile, "Captain Qin, although we've been in the village for several years, we really don't have much strength left. Asking us to carry water is just making things difficult for us."
Regardless of whether their families were struggling financially, almost no educated youth went to work in the first or second production teams because it was too tiring, and even if they did go, they couldn't last more than three days before giving up.
Tasks like carrying water are usually done by two-person teams, and they rarely do them, even if the work points are high, they can't do them.
Older educated youth could earn seven or eight work points a day, which was considered a lot. Female educated youth could only earn six work points a day. However, even six work points were barely enough to fill their stomachs, but they didn't have much money left.
They are content with just enough to fill their stomachs; they have no ability to earn more than that.
The educated youth nodded in agreement with Jiang Xiaotian, indicating that they couldn't do this job.
Are you kidding me? Carrying water is so tiring! One trip and your shoulders will be rubbed raw, two trips and your shoulders will be chapped. If you do this all day, nobody will have to get up to work tomorrow. You won't even earn six work points.
