It was already late autumn, and the night in the Gobi Desert was cold and lonely, but Dong Yingying felt her blood boiling.
Standing on this barren land full of memories, she was overwhelmed with emotions as she relived her life.
Recalling the hardships and pains of her past life in the cadre school, Dong Yingying couldn't help but shed tears.
In her memory, not long after she was sent to the cadre school, she encountered a serious food crisis.
So she used her father's power and connections, and tried every means to get a truck of food, which she personally escorted from afar, just to solve the problem of food for the members of the cadre school.
Along the way, she seemed to have seen the tragic scenes of her previous life, seeing the three members of the Song family starving to death, their skinny and pale faces.
Li Yuetang, the weakest one, suffered from severe dysentery after eating moldy cornmeal and fainted many times on the smelly dung pile.
Looking at the food on the truck, imagining the Song family's surprise and joy when they saw her and the food, as well as the gratitude of the people in the cadre school towards her, Dong Yingying became more and more excited and happy.
Soon, people heard the noise and rushed out.
"Principal Wei!"
When Dong Yingying saw Wei Yifu walking towards her with his coat draped over his shoulders, she excitedly stepped forward and extended her hand to greet him.
Wei Yifu did not shake hands with Dong Yingying, but instead looked alert and serious.
"Who are you? How can you come and go freely in our cadre school? Who let you in?!"
Dong Yingying was stunned. Obviously, this was not the scene she had imagined.
“I…I am…”
"Old Wei, I brought her in!"
A tall, thin middle-aged man walked up and greeted Wei Yifu with a smile.
Wei Yifu was stunned for a moment, then called out, "Director Xu?"
Lin Wanjun followed the crowd to the playground and happened to see this scene.
Xu Haibin, director of the county revolutionary committee, is introducing Dong Yingying's identity to Wei Yifu.
"Comrade Dong Yingying is truly conscious. Upon learning we were short of food, she traveled thousands of miles to deliver it. This spirit of selfless dedication is worthy of emulation by all of us at the Cadre School!"
Xu Haibin shouted, "Appreciate! We must especially commend Comrade Dong Yingying's spirit! Come on, everyone, applaud!"
Most of the onlookers had no idea what was going on and applauded with a confused look on their faces.
Lin Wanjun stood in the crowd and sneered.
I don’t know whether Dong Yingying is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. I don’t know whether she really wants to help the cadre school overcome its difficulties or whether she has come all the way here to gain fame.
Why not just deliver the food secretly? Why notify the County Revolutionary Committee so publicly?
What? Is she afraid that the people in the cadre school will eat the food she sent?
Lin Wanjun dared to bet that if this truck of grain could stay in the cadre school, she would not be named Lin!
The dormitory where Song Zhanjin and Song Mingcheng lived was a little remote, so they arrived a little late.
Lin Wanjun had been watching the excitement for quite a while before Song Zhanjin arrived.
"Dong Yingying? What is she doing here?!"
Seeing Dong Yingying looking exhausted, Song Zhanjin widened his eyes.
"Surprised? Unexpected? Your beloved sister has traveled thousands of miles to chase her husband!"
Lin Wanjun sneered in a sarcastic tone, but Song Zhanjin heard it as jealousy.
He smiled, raised his hand and hugged Lin Wanjun's shoulders tightly.
"I do have a sweetheart, but her last name isn't Dong, it's Lin!"
Moving closer, Song Zhanjin put his lips next to Lin Wanjun's ear and deliberately blew on her.
"Little sister, be good and call me brother!"
Call you uncle!
Lin Wanjun raised her hand and twisted Song Zhanjin's waist.
"Be good, my eldest son, and call me daddy!"
Just as Song Mingcheng looked over, Lin Wanjun suddenly felt guilty. She glared at Song Zhanjin fiercely and reached out to push him away.
Get lost! You stinky male protagonist with a lot of bad love debts!
Dong Yingying finally found Song Zhanjin in the crowd.
She couldn't suppress her inner excitement and ran over regardless of everything, but what she saw was Song Zhanjin flirting with Lin Wanjun with a playful smile on his face.
A cold and arrogant man like Song Zhanjin is now clinging to Lin Wanjun like a mangy dog.
Lin Wanjun told him to go away with a cold face, but he was not angry and did not go away. He smiled and moved closer, holding Lin Wanjun's slender waist affectionately.
Dong Yingying's pounding heart seemed to be pressed down by something heavy, so heavy that she could hardly breathe.
Why is this happening? Why do they seem so happy and in love?
It shouldn't be like this!
When Song Mingcheng and Li Yuetang saw Dong Yingying running towards them, they stood in front of their daughter-in-law without leaving any trace, with a defensive look on their faces.
Dong Yingying's heart ached again.
"Nonsense! Dong Yingying, does your dad know you came here?"
Song Mingcheng shouted sternly, "Go back! Return to North City immediately!"
Dong Yingying suffered a lot along the way, but she didn't shed a tear.
She fantasized about the scene of reunion, fantasizing that she would be a guest of honor, and the Song family would take good care of her and ask about her well-being, but...
Li Yuetang also frowned and said, "Dong Yingying, what are you doing here?"
Dong Yingying held back the tears in her eyes and pointed at the cart of grain.
"I'm here to bring you food! I'm worried you'll starve!"
In order to prove that she was not lying, Dong Yingying turned around and ran to the truck, trying to lift the waterproof canvas covering it.
But the next moment, Xu Haibin held down Dong Yingying's hand as she was about to lift the canvas.
"No! Just don't bother! You'll have to cover it again later."
Hearing this, Dong Yingying widened her eyes.
"Why do we need to cover it again? While everyone is here, quickly unload the grain from the truck and move it to the granary. Then everyone can have hot rice porridge tomorrow morning!"
Xu Haibin looked at Dong Yingying with a smile.
"Xiao Dong, food is different from other supplies. It must be allocated uniformly according to a fixed quota. It's not up to you to decide who it's given to or which cadre school it's given to!"
Dong Yingying looked stunned.
"But...but this is the food I bought from North City with my own money! I came all the way here to send it to the Cadre School!"
Xu Haibin still smiled.
"Food is state-owned property, not owned by any one person. No one has the right to allocate it on their own!"
He waved his hand, and several workers came behind him and took over the truck.
Lin Wanjun had anticipated this and stood in the crowd, watching coldly.
Well, she overestimated Dong Yingying's IQ.
I thought she invited Xu Haibin just to gain fame, but now it seems that she is just stupid!
Dong Yingying looked at Wei Yifu for help again.
"Principal Wei, please say something! This is the life-saving food I sent to our cadre school!"
Hearing this, there was a discussion in the crowd.
"Life-saving food? Why don't you secretly send the life-saving food in? Why do you make it so public?"
"Speaking of which, it's Kobayashi Saneko who, despite discovering the grain, didn't report it and didn't take credit for it, he even donated anti-inflammatory medicine, more valuable than gold, to treat the sick and save lives!"
"Who knows if there's any food in the car? Maybe they're just using an empty car as a formality to earn some credit. This kind of thing has happened before!"
…
The crowd was talking, and Dong Yingying's face looked extremely ugly.
She came here after a long journey, encountering thieves and storms. She suffered a lot before she finally transported the food.
But what is the result?
Xu Haibin wanted to withhold the grain and take it back to the county for unified distribution. People in the cadre school spread rumors and questioned her for seeking fame.
Dong Yingying felt extremely aggrieved, tears streaming down her face, and in the end she squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.
