The family compound of the Beijing Woolen Mill,
Lu Xiaotang was wearing a military uniform, with his legs crossed, sitting lazily on the sofa in the living room.
The old lady next to him pointed at him and cursed, "You little beast, you have caused so much harm to your aunt's family, how dare you come here?"
Lu Xiaotang narrowed his eyes and glanced at her, and said, "Old lady, I advise you to be less angry. Maybe you can still wait until the day your precious daughter comes back."
Then he said to the middle-aged woman standing next to the old lady with her head down, "Mrs. Director Lu, I heard that you like my house and it's a good choice. Are you ready to move in?"
The middle-aged woman raised her head and smiled, "Xiaotang, where did you get this from? Did you hear something from someone and misunderstand me?"
Lu Xiaotang changed his posture and said with a half-smile, "Oh, you are not attracted to my house, then why are you hanging around there all day? Are you going to be my housekeeper? I remember that we have severed our relationship, or maybe Mrs. Lu, the director, is forgetful and forgot about this."
Old Mrs. Lu was so angry that she trembled all over. She pointed at him fiercely and said, "That house is not yours. It was bought when your father got married. Now that your eldest brother is getting married, what's wrong with giving it to him to live in."
"Oh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered it. It was my uncle who paid for the house, right? I've heard that you didn't contribute a penny to my parents' wedding, and now you want to occupy the house. Tsk tsk tsk, they say people get thicker-skinned as they get older. So they mean people like you."
Old Mrs. Lu was so angry that she held her chest and gasped.
Lu Xiaotang didn't care whether she would be angry to death or not, and continued, "Old lady, let me remind you that I only have one sister, but no big brother, so don't try to make me a relative here."
After saying that, he stood up, slowly straightened his military uniform, looked around the furnishings in the room, and spoke to the middle-aged woman standing there.
"This small building is nice. The treatment of the factory director is much better than that of the deputy factory director. I heard that last year, just after the woolen mill received a batch of cotton, there was a fire in the warehouse.
The newly appointed Director Sun had really bad luck. He was pulled down before he had the chance to move into this small building. I wonder how he would feel if he knew that the batch of cotton was deliberately set on fire. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged woman turned pale and looked at him in horror. After a while, she forced a smile and said, "Xiaotang, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
Lu Xiaotang's face darkened, he sneered and said, "Madam Lu, put away your little tricks, otherwise, I will show you my methods."
After saying that, he strode out. Just as he was about to go out, he saw Mr. Lu coming back from outside. The old man saw him coming out of the house.
He pointed at him angrily and said, "You beast, how dare you come here? I will beat you to death today." After that, he picked up the stick by the door and hit Lu Xiaotang.
Lu Xiaotang looked at him with disdain, grabbed the stick with one hand and threw it aside, saying, "Speaking of beasts, I'm afraid no one can compare to your eldest son and youngest daughter. Oh, and you."
After saying this, he opened the door and walked away without even looking at the old man's angry face.
He thought to himself that he had just tricked his good aunt. Judging from her expression, his good uncle's ability to become the factory director was really related to that incident.
Ever since the children in the village knew that Dalin and Jianmin were fishing here, a fishing trend started. Children of all ages in the village would run here after school. Some brought sacks, some brought bamboo baskets, and even Wei Lanlan and Chen Xiangdong had gone fishing several times.
No one came here to catch fish until the autumn harvest began.
The educated youth were still all divided together to harvest beans, and the team leader allocated a piece of land to each of them, and recorded work points according to the amount of work they did.
Xu An School is also on holiday! The team leader divided the brother and sister together. Chunhua and Jiaohua were on the left, and Lin Miao and Gu Wenjing were on the right.
This year, several people in the cowshed were also harvesting beans. Xu Ma and Lu Ma were sitting next to Lin Qiuhua and Liu Fang.
When they first started cutting the grass, everyone was doing fine. But as they got more tired, the sun came out and a few people looked for a place to rest.
Xu Ning saw that Xu An was sweating a lot, so he said, "Xiao An, go find a place to drink some water and rest for a while."
"Sister, I'm not tired. You go and take a rest for a while," she said, then wiped the sweat from her face and continued to cut beans.
Xu Ning looked at the front and saw that there was not much left, so he decided to finish cutting this piece as soon as possible.
The brother and sister were busy cutting beans when they heard Xiao Mo angrily say, "Why do you want us to do your work for you? If you can't finish the work, go find the village chief. Why do you need us? We are not eating your food."
The brother and sister looked at each other and immediately stood up. They saw Xu Mo and Lin Qiuhua arguing there. Xu Mo put his hands on his hips and glared at Lin Qiuhua.
Xu An was about to go over to watch, but Xu Ning said, "Don't go over now. Mom, Dad, Uncle Lu, and Aunt Lu are all there. Xiao Mo won't suffer any loss."
Those who were harvesting beans in this area were educated youth and people from the cowshed. The villagers were all working in other fields, far away from here, so few people came to join in the fun. Only Gu Wenjing and Liu Fang were watching and laughing from the side.
Yang Wenli, Gu Wenping and Lin Miao were resting in the shade. They were probably far away and did not hear the quarrel clearly.
Chunhua and Jiaohua took a look and continued cutting beans.
Wei Lanlan heard this and ran to Xu Ning and said angrily, "Lin Qiuhua and Liu Fang are such bastards. They let others do their jobs for them. How shameless."
The land that Wei Lanlan and Chen Xiangdong divided was right next to that of Lin Qiuhua and Liu Fang. She should have seen the whole process.
Xu Ning asked casually, "What's going on? I saw the kid in the cowshed talking to Lin Qiuhua. Is there anything about Liu Fang involved?"
Wei Lanlan pouted and said, "Don't be fooled by her soft voice. She is the most sinister person in the whole Youth Farm. She never takes the lead in anything and always instigates others to do it. She takes advantage of others behind the scenes. Just now, she asked Lin Qiuhua to call the people in the cowshed to help them harvest beans."
Xu Ning smiled and said, "I never knew there was such a person in the Youth Academy."
Lin Qiuhua said angrily, "Little brats, what's wrong with letting you do some work? Aren't you here to work? I let you help with the work because I think highly of you."
Liu Fang and Gu Wenjing, who were standing nearby, both laughed.
Xu Ning tightly grasped Xu An's clenched fist and said to Wei Lanlan with a smile, "This Lin Qiuhua really doesn't look like a bride at all. She hasn't even married into the village chief's family yet, but she's already bullying people by taking advantage of her power. What will happen when she marries into the village chief's family in the future?"
Wei Lanlan's eyes twinkled and she said, "Yes! You don't know, now she doesn't even take us seriously and even lets a few male educated youth help her fetch water. But no one tolerates her bad habits."
Xu Ning sighed and said, "When my brother and I first came here, we were young, and she always bullied us, asking us to help her with chores and my brother to boil water for her bath. She also withheld our food. Otherwise, we would not be able to move out."
Wei Lanlan was shocked, "What? She even asked you to boil water for her to take a bath. Why is she so shameless?"
Xu Ning pretended to be sad and lowered her head, thinking to herself, Liu Fang, Lin Qiuhua, you two just wait for me.
