The young wife with whom Li Wei was having an affair was also an educated youth, and they were lovers. However, she later married a soldier in the village, and Li Wei also started dating Wang Fang.
Li Wei abandoned Wang Fang for a place at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, but failed to get his wish. He couldn't divorce his accountant's daughter, so his life was always unhappy.
As for the female educated youth, she originally thought that if she married a soldier she could leave the Red Flag Battalion and follow him to join the army, but in the end her wish did not come true.
When two people who were originally in love but are now unhappy in their lives meet each other, it's bound to be a scene of passion and cause trouble.
The one who caught them in the act was the family that was originally engaged to the soldier. Both families had agreed to the marriage, but the educated youth woman intervened, causing their daughter to be laughed at and accused of not being able to keep a man.
If they encountered such a thing, the family would definitely not let her go. After the two of them took off their clothes, they immediately started shouting loudly and soon attracted people over.
The accountant was completely humiliated after this incident. He had originally objected to his daughter marrying Li Wei, but that girl had gone all out and had sex with him before they were married, forcing him to agree.
When the female educated youth's husband's family saw their daughter-in-law cheating on their son, they were so angry that they immediately asked relatives to report to the police.
Since this involved soldiers, people from the city quickly arrived. Li Wei and the female educated youth were immediately tied up and paraded through the streets with worn-out shoes hanging around their necks.
Li Wei and the female educated youth were released three days later. When they first came back, no one recognized them.
His whole body was filled with a foul smell, as if he had been splashed with feces. His face was also covered with red marks, probably from being slapped with a shoe sole.
And that wasn't the end of it. Less than a week after their return, they were paraded through the streets again. Yun Yan suspected that from now on, until the fall of the Gang of Four, they would be dragged out for struggle sessions from time to time.
It is said that Li Wei was beaten beyond measure. This time, Yun Yan finally saw how harsh the punishment was on those with improper conduct in this era.
As expected, both Li Wei and the female educated youth were divorced. Although Li Wei was physically disabled, he chose to live a miserable life rather than die. The accountant kicked him out and the educated youth center refused to take him in, so he moved into a dilapidated wooden house in the village.
The female educated youth who had an affair with Li Wei had her reputation ruined and had nowhere to go, so she quietly committed suicide by jumping into a river one night.
She was not found until the next morning. Her family was unwilling to come and collect her body. Finally, the team leader decided to bury her on a straw mat and a piece of land.
Wang Fang was overwhelmed with emotions when she saw their ending, not knowing whether to laugh happily or cry sadly.
After this incident, the villagers had an even worse impression of the educated youth. Two female educated youth were almost engaged to well-off men in the village, but after the incident between Li Wei and that female educated youth, the man directly said it was not suitable and canceled the engagement.
The two angry female educated youth cursed Li Wei and that female educated youth every day at the educated youth site, and the educated youth site was filled with resentment.
Yun Yan didn't sympathize with them at all. Both of them were people who tried their best to live a good life. If they had known how to be content, how could they have ended up like this?
When the brigade was resting, Yun Yan took Wang Fang to the mountains to pick wild vegetables to stop her from having wild thoughts.
After the spring rain, the mountains were covered with wild vegetables, and the two of them quickly picked a basket full of mustard greens. At this time, the mustard greens were fresh and tender, and they were delicious whether they were made into dumplings or buns.
Mix mustard greens with flour, steam them, and then drizzle some sesame oil on them. They taste very delicious.
The two of them carried the basket down the mountain, chatting as they walked.
"Yunyan, do you think that's a pheasant?" Wang Fang asked, pointing ahead.
Yun Yan looked in the direction of her hand and saw that it was a pheasant!
It was truly a delicacy delivered to your door. Yun Yan handed the basket to Wang Fang and approached the pheasant cautiously.
When the distance was about right, she immediately reached out and grabbed it. Yun Yan held the pheasant in her hand and weighed it. It weighed about two kilograms.
Because Wang Fang saw the pheasant, Yun Yan asked her to go home with her and drink chicken soup together.
In addition to pheasant soup, Yun Yan also stir-fried some sauerkraut chicken offal and a dish of cold wild vegetables. The staple food was corn buns, which the two of them ate with gusto.
"Yun Yan, your cooking skills are really good. No wonder Qian Qian came to you every day before. Now I want to..." Wang Fang said while drinking chicken soup, and suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.
"I'm sorry, Yunyan, I shouldn't have mentioned her." Wang Fang looked at Yunyan and said a little embarrassedly.
"It's okay, Wang Fang, you don't have to avoid her in front of me. She and I just don't interact with each other anymore, not become enemies." Yun Yan said calmly.
After hearing what she said, Wang Fang didn't say anything. After lunch, the two chatted for a while and then Wang Fang left.
After Wang Fang left, Yun Yan chopped all the remaining mustard greens into stuffing, took out a plate of lard and a few eggs from the space, and planned to make mustard greens lard buns and mustard greens and egg dumplings.
After a busy afternoon, everything was finally done and we had mustard greens and oil-dregs buns for dinner.
Steam the remaining buns and dumplings and put them all into the space. You can take them out of the space when you want to eat them.
The next day, Yun Yan had just come back from cutting grass for the pigs when she heard the postman's voice outside asking her to pick up the mail.
Yun Yan found it strange that in this era, no one knew she had come to the Red Flag Brigade, not even the original owner's other relatives. Who else would write to her?
She took the letter from the postman, opened it and saw that it was written by Shen Ye.
In the letter, he told Yun Yan that he was going to carry out a mission and his return date was uncertain. In addition to the letter, there was a remittance slip for 200 yuan and various bills, as well as two milk powder tickets. Yun Yan knew that these were from Shen Ye for his grandparents.
The next day, Yun Yan rode her bicycle to the county town early in the morning. She first went to the meat stall and saw some pork fat. She spent two cents to ask someone to buy two pounds for her.
The butcher stall stipulated that each person could only buy a maximum of two pounds of meat, so she had to pay someone to help her. In the end, Yunyan bought four pounds of pork fat and three pounds of pork ribs.
After riding her bike to a deserted place, Yun Yan put the pork fat and pork shanks into the space. Then she went to the post office and took out the remittance sent by Chen Ye.
After withdrawing the money, I went to the department store and used the milk powder coupons to buy two cans of milk powder and some seasonings.
After leaving the department store, she went to the black market again. This was her first time there this year. She ran into the chicken seller again and bought three at once.
Chickens these days are really delicious, but it’s a pity that I don’t meet the standards for raising chickens and can’t even raise one.
After leaving the black market, Yun Yan took out three pounds of pork bones from the space and hung them on the handlebars of the bicycle. She rode directly back to the Hongqi Brigade. On the way, she met Uncle Wang driving a bullock cart back to the brigade.
There were two beautiful girls in fashionable clothes sitting on the ox cart, and the cart was full of luggage.
