Don't spout nonsense like "you'll never starve if you eat with your own hands." They've been living a life of luxury all these years, only cooking occasionally, so they don't know how to do farm work.
“But we have nothing. Going to the countryside would just be waiting to die.” Zhang Yanhong didn’t even dare to think about it.
Seeing that going to this rural area was unavoidable, Zhang Yanqing still wanted to try one more time. "Where will we be going? Can you arrange for us to go back to our hometown?"
Where is your hometown?
The educated youth office isn't a completely unreasonable place; if someone is in real trouble, they will help if they can.
The three siblings gave the address in unison, but the woman shook her head again, saying, "Your village is not on this list."
"Can't you be a little more accommodating? We really have no other choice. Look at what's left in this house. If we go to those harsh places, the three of us don't even know if we'll come back alive."
Zhang Yanqing cried, unable to bear such a stark contrast, and even more afraid of her future life.
Gu An'an showed no sympathy whatsoever. Knowing full well that life in the countryside was difficult, they still forced the original owner away. Why didn't they consider how a naive young girl like the original owner would survive in the countryside?
They deserve all of this.
"You're wrong about that. Why did the country call on educated youth to go to the countryside? Did it mean we were to go and enjoy ourselves with our relatives and friends? No! The leaders wanted us to bring our progressive ideas and knowledge to those barren lands, to make those barren lands bloom, and to ensure that the people there could have enough to eat and wear. But in your mouth, it's become suffering. Your thinking is wrong."
"I don't."
Zhang Yanqing hurriedly retorted, saying that if she were really labeled with such a label, who knows what uncontrollable things might happen.
You know in your heart whether it's true or not.
With Gu An'an as a comparison, the people in the educated youth office felt less sympathy for the Zhang siblings. Thinking about their family's situation, it completely proved the saying that there is always something hateful about a pitiful person.
"This young comrade is quite good."
Gu An'an smiled shyly, "It was just a momentary feeling, I don't deserve your praise."
"As expected, rotten flowers bear rotten fruit. Look at the Zhang family members, and then look at An'an. The difference is too great."
“What right does the Zhang family have to compare with the Gu family? If Old Master Gu were still alive, how could An’an have fallen to the point of being bullied by them?”
"Stop talking, look at the way they look at you, they really want to eat you up."
The woman, who was speaking enthusiastically, was interrupted by this remark and immediately glared back, "What? They dare to do it but we can't even talk about it? What kind of logic is that!"
"Get them out of here quickly, otherwise they won't have any jobs in the city and might become thugs and hooligans who will take advantage of us."
Considering that the three of them had planned to find someone to bully Gu An'an that day, everyone felt that this was very likely and agreed with her statement.
"You, you've gone too far!"
