"According to what you said, Yun Zhiqing, reading is quite useful."
"Of course, Auntie and I, the educated youth, didn't have the opportunity to study, but it's different for Hu Zi and the others."
"What's the difference? Life is still the same."
"Aunt, what you said is not true. When we were studying, the country had just been established and was hit by a natural disaster. The leaders were busy trying to feed the people and of course they had no time to develop the economy."
"But things are different now. The disaster is over, the country is stable, and it's time to think about how to develop the economy. Then those educated people will be put to good use."
"Yun Zhiqing, according to what you said, after studying, you can become a high-ranking official."
"Auntie, studying isn't just for becoming an official. Reading can help you understand the truth and distinguish between good and evil, and it can also broaden your horizons."
"Let's not talk about anything else, just say the county is hiring workers. Educated people have a better chance of being selected than uneducated people. Do you want your sons and grandchildren to be farmers their whole lives like you did?"
"What Yun Zhiqing said makes sense. If nothing else, I have to let my little Dong go to school just so that I can find a job in the county town in the future."
"Yeah, now that you mention it, I'm going to send my Niu Dan to school too."
"That's right. Look at the team leader and several other village cadres. Which one of them didn't send their children to school? Why would they send their children there if they thought studying was useless?"
"After hearing what Yun Zhiqing said, I decided to send my eldest daughter to school as well. Learning a few more words will be a plus when it comes to finding a husband."
Hearing that everyone in the village wanted to send their children to school, Yun Yan was happy for them from the bottom of her heart. It would be a good thing even if only one of the children in the village could become successful in the future.
"Hey, Li Guihua, you really have too much money and don't know where to spend it. Why are you spending money to send a money-losing girl to school?"
The speaker was Xu Juhua, the most patriarchal person in the village, and also Pan Di's grandmother.
I heard that when she was young, she drowned her daughters in a urine bucket in order to give birth to a son. Such a person is not worthy of being a human being.
"Aunt Xu, how could you scold yourself for no reason?"
"When did I scold myself?" Xu Juhua asked Yun Yan in confusion.
"Just now, you said that daughters are money-losing goods. You used to be someone's daughter, so what are you? An old money-losing goods?"
"Hahaha" Everyone laughed out loud when they heard Yun Yan's words.
Xu Juhua was so angry that she was about to rush over to hit Yun Yan. Yun Yan grabbed her hand and said, "Auntie Xu, you have to think carefully. I have practiced martial arts before. Are you sure you can beat me with your old arms and legs?"
After saying that, she shook her hand away. Looking at Yun Yan, Xu Juhua remembered the time when Yun Yan knocked Chen Zhaodi to the ground and beat her.
In the end, he could only glare at Yun Yan fiercely, saying harshly, "You little girl, just wait for me."
After she finished speaking, she left. Aunt Zhang watched her walk away and said to Yun Yan worriedly, "Yun Zhiqing, you'd better be careful with this Xu Po from now on. She is very sinister."
After hearing what Aunt Zhang said, Yun Yan smiled at her and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Aunt Zhang."
Yun Yan is not afraid of Xu Juhua's tricks. She is even more sinister than her.
After such a commotion, no one was in the mood to continue chatting, so they all dispersed.
After returning home, Yunyan took a shower, washed her clothes, and then lay on the bed to read a book, but Xu Juhua was not so comfortable.
Mrs. Xu returned home cursing all the way. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Pan Di washing clothes in the yard. She immediately took out her anger outside on Pan Di.
"You are a money-losing jinx!" He cursed while twisting Pan Di's arms and waist with his hands.
Pan Di couldn't stand her twisting anymore and started to hide. This made Mrs. Xu very angry. She picked up the stick on the ground and hit Pan Di hard: "You are such a loser and a cheap girl, you dare to hide. I will beat you to death."
When Mrs. Xu's son and daughter-in-law heard the noise, they came out of the house. Seeing their mother's appearance, they guessed that she must have been bullied outside again.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Did anyone provoke you? Come back and take it out on Pandi."
Mrs. Xu became even angrier when she heard what her son said. She pointed the stick in her hand at her son and said, "What's wrong? I raised you up so old, can't I just spank this money-losing thing you gave birth to?"
"If I had known you were so heartless, I should have thrown you into the piss bucket and drowned you."
"Oh, what sin have I committed to raise a son like this? I might as well die." As he said this, he threw away the stick in his hand, sat on the ground and started to throw a tantrum.
Liu Bao felt a headache when he saw his mother using the same old tricks again. He quickly helped her up from the ground: "Mom, that's not what I meant. Please get up quickly."
"I can't get up. I can't get up. I was bullied outside, and now I have to face your contempt when I come back. I don't want to live anymore." After saying that, she started rolling on the ground.
Seeing her like this, Liu Bao could only squat down and continued, "Mom, get up first. If anyone bullies you, tell your son and I'll go and vent your anger for you."
Hearing this, Mrs. Xu stopped making a fuss immediately: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Really, Mom, who dares to bully you?"
Mrs. Xu stood up from the ground: "Isn't it Yun Yan, the jinx who brought misfortune to her father and mother?"
When Liu Bao heard that it was Yun Yan, he immediately fell silent. Seeing her son like this, Mrs. Xu knew that he was scared.
"You useless thing, you are afraid of a woman." Mrs. Xu was very disappointed.
Liu Bao was unhappy when he heard his mother's words: "Mom, what are you talking about? Is Yun Zhiqing easy to mess with? I heard that she even learned Kung Fu. Do you want me to die?"
"What are you afraid of? I don't believe a little girl like her can be that powerful. You are useless."
Hearing her mother-in-law say this about her husband, Pan Di's mother was upset: "Mom, you say that so easily. Why don't you go find Yun Zhiqing yourself? Aren't you afraid of her? You don't even dare to go, and you let your son go. What are you thinking?"
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she immediately got angry at her daughter-in-law: "Why are you butting in when I'm talking to my son, you idiot who has been raised but not taught."
Pan Di's mother immediately retorted: "Even if no one taught me, I wouldn't be as cruel as you. You are willing to let your own son die."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started arguing loudly in the yard, attracting all the neighbors who gathered in the yard to watch the fun.
When Pan Di saw the expressions of her grandmother and father, she admired Yun Yan even more. She secretly vowed to become a person like Yun Yan in the future.
Yun Yan was completely unaware of the farce she had caused. Thinking that she would have money coming in tomorrow, she went to bed early.
The next day, he rode his bicycle to the county town, disguised himself and went to the black market. Unexpectedly, he was stopped as soon as he entered the black market.
"Sister, our boss wants to see you."
