Looking at the row of books on the bedside table, Chen Ruijun was quite impressed with the young man in front of him.
"Oh my, you're bringing such heavy books to the countryside. You're such a bookworm, bringing only books and no food or drink."
I randomly flipped through a book.
This young man has a high level of ideological awareness.
"Comrade Chen, have some water. I'm just doing this because I have nothing better to do. I graduated from high school and have nothing to do. I usually enjoy reading."
He Junsheng handed over the teacup.
"You have a high school diploma, so why did you go to the countryside?"
“My family didn’t need me to go to the countryside, but considering that I was responding to the national call and that the neighborhood needed us to set an example, I decided to be that role model.”
My dad is the factory director, and I'm the child of a cadre. If I don't set an example, who else would be willing to go to the countryside?
Hearing this, Chen Ruijun felt even more favorably disposed toward the young man in front of him.
"There aren't many people with your level of awareness these days."
"Are you Xiao Chen's?"
“I am Chen Ruixue’s older brother, I am her fourth brother, my name is Chen Ruijun.”
Chen Ruixue was just about to inquire about her sister's situation here, and he had already started processing her employment paperwork.
However, it will take time.
It will take at least a month for the other party to give you a message, and it could take three to five months if the time is long.
"So you're Comrade Chen's older brother. You two siblings do look quite alike."
"My sister is beautiful, and I'm just barely so."
Hearing compliments on their family's appearance makes me happy, because their parents are good-looking, so their genes are very strong.
Everyone in the family is at their peak in terms of looks.
They also prefer good-looking people.
"By the way, Xiao He, why didn't you go to the county with them?"
"I stay home and study more when I have nothing to do."
He Junsheng was anxiously trying to figure out how to win Chen Ruijun's favor.
"You're really perceptive. By the way, I wanted to ask how my sister is doing at the construction site?"
My younger sister is spoiled and pampered; I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to handle working on a construction site.
This was something he had always been worried about. He had tried to subtly ask his sister, but she never said anything.
They always say it's great.
He Junsheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately came up with a plan.
He let out a deep sigh.
"What happened? Is someone bullying my sister?"
Chen Ruijun immediately became anxious.
"No, no, no one bullies Xiao Chen, someone like Xiao Chen."
Being proactive and considered an advanced individual, it's no wonder that no one bullies them.
But she's just a girl; how could she possibly do that kind of work on a construction site?
Chen Ruijun agreed with He Junsheng's statement.
“I don’t want her, a young woman, to do this kind of work, but she won’t listen to me.”
We told her to stay home for a month, but she insisted on doing such heavy work. It's not like we can't afford to support her.
"My sister is very stubborn, just like my dad."
He Junsheng's heart was pounding. He grasped the key point in those words: wait a month!
In other words, Chen Ruixue's brother had already made arrangements for her.
How can he get Chen Ruijun to help him?
A perfectly timed embarrassed expression appeared on his face.
"Actually, Ruixue is a nice person."
She is gentle and kind, positive and ambitious.
He never complains about hardship or fatigue while working.
Her shoulders were covered in blisters, and when I applied the medicine to her, my heart ached terribly.
Chen Ruijun was stunned. His sister had blisters on her shoulder. The main problem was that He Junsheng, a grown man, could see his sister's shoulder.
Could it be that my sister is involved with this He Junsheng?
His complexion immediately turned sour.
To be precise, he had a good feeling about He Junsheng, but regardless of what kind of relationship He Junsheng had with his sister now.
You can't just see your sister's shoulder directly.
In this era, anyone who doesn't get married and crosses any boundaries is considered a pervert.
"Well, thank you, Comrade Xiao He. Since my sister isn't here, I'll be going now. I'll come see her another day."
Chen Ruijun angrily picked up the large bag and turned to leave.
He Junsheng was stunned and stood there for a moment. What was going on?
They were talking just a moment ago, how come they're acting all hostile the moment they turn around?
Recalling what he had just said, he slapped his thigh, looking utterly remorseful.
"I'm not trying to offend anyone with my mouth."
They hurried after him as fast as they could.
"Comrade Chen, Comrade Chen, why don't you wait a little longer? Comrade Ruixue and the others should be back this afternoon."
"With all that back and forth you've gone, it's probably been half a month since we last saw each other."
"Comrade Chen, please don't misunderstand. Comrade Ruixue has blood blisters on her shoulder. My cousin mentioned it to me unintentionally."
I even went out of my way to get some herbs for Comrade Ruixue; it's all my fault for talking nonsense. How could I spout such rubbish?
Chen Ruijun stopped and suddenly realized upon hearing this that it wasn't He Junsheng who had applied the medicine to his sister.
"Your cousin?"
He Junsheng hurriedly said with a smile,
"Yes, she's my cousin!"
The female educated youth who came to the countryside with me.
This isn't because Comrade Ruixue got a blister on her shoulder; my cousin has been applying medicine to her for the past two days.
It seemed that her wound was not healing well, so I tried to get her some additional medication.
It was only recently that I finally got better.
We would talk about the blood blisters on Comrade Ruixue's shoulder, but nothing more.
Comrade Chen, please don't misunderstand. My feelings for Comrade Rui Ruixue are purely revolutionary; I have absolutely no other ulterior motives.
