The village chief deliberately led these educated youths to linger in front of these old women.
Don't you look down on us?
Let the women in the village dampen their arrogance, so they won't be difficult to manage later.
I really made him angry today.
Not to mention that he is also the village chief of Laolin Village. Since you've come here, instead of getting along well, you try to intimidate us with your power.
They didn't even respect their village chief, and even spoke rudely to him.
He's not their ancestor, so he won't indulge their bad habits.
Let them see how formidable the village women are first.
Otherwise, you'd really think he was made of mud.
The educated youth were unaware that this was the village chief's way of putting them in a tough spot.
They have no idea what consequences their ignorant actions will bring them.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the village chief waved for everyone to leave.
He led four educated youths to a dilapidated courtyard.
There used to be a lonely old woman living here, without any children.
After the person passed away, the village chief arranged for their burial.
From then on, the house belonged to the village.
There are several other uninhabited houses like this, enough for each of these educated youth to live in.
But the village chief wasn't so generous.
The four educated youths were named Yao Gang, Qin Yong, Qian Mei, and Fang Yuying.
All four of them were the kind of kids who had never experienced hardship at home.
Both the food and the accommodations were top-notch.
When they first saw this dilapidated house, they were all dumbfounded.
The village chief wasn't in the mood to talk to them anymore. He just said, "Come find him after you've packed up," and then quickly left.
The four of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
They noticed some children secretly observing them.
They were all immediately angered, as if they were watching them make a fool of themselves.
They even rudely chased the children away.
These children were called over by the village chief.
The purpose was to see if these educated youth needed any help.
It's hard to say to him, but it should be easier to say to the child.
To everyone's surprise, these ungrateful people actually chased the children away.
Seeing that it was getting late, the group had no choice but to start packing up.
This house is quite large, with many rooms.
They each chose a room and started tidying up their own.
They were all people who hadn't done much housework at home.
In this unfamiliar place, I'm doing work I've never done before.
They were like Pigsy trying to eat a watermelon, completely clueless.
At least it's habitable when it gets dark.
They were so hungry that their stomachs were practically sticking to their backs, and they didn't want to move at all.
Not to mention starting a fire to cook.
The group took out the food they had brought and began to eat.
After finishing his meal, he hugged his blankets and fell into a deep sleep.
The village chief was still at home waiting for these pampered educated youth.
It was already completely dark, but they still hadn't come.
So I thought I'd go check on it, just in case something had happened.
As a result, he brought his eldest son and arrived in the dark, only to find that everyone else was already fast asleep.
He could only shake his head and go back.
Yuan Gungun was also among the group of children who were chased away.
When I got home, I told my family about it.
Yuan's mother also warned them to go there less often in the future.
Those children who have been pampered since childhood would never be able to endure the hardships here.
Please don't take your anger out on the children.
The same thing happened in many other homes in the village.
Today they finally got to see these so-called educated youth in person.
Neither of them are easy to get along with.
Yuan's mother was afraid that her child would cause trouble and break something.
Then someone will come knocking on your door demanding compensation.
Xiao Xiao didn't think it was a big deal.
No matter how spoiled they are, they'll eventually become just like them, a country bumpkin.
Actually, their Laolin Village is much better than the outside world.
It sounds like a very poor mountain village, but as the saying goes: "Those who live near the mountains live off the mountains."
That's really how they are.
There are plenty of supplies on the mountain, so we won't go hungry.
The conditions are indeed a bit tougher than outside, but you'll get used to it.
Just like her, she still doesn't want to live outside.
Xiao Xiao is not a busybody.
They especially disliked dealing with the educated youth who had been sent down to the countryside.
The fact that four more educated youths had entered Laolin Village did not seem to attract much attention.
Everyone should just continue doing what they were doing.
As for whether those educated youth could get used to it or not, that's not their concern.
With winter fast approaching, every household is using their spare time to stock up on firewood in preparation for the winter.
The family had already stockpiled enough firewood.
It was Yuan Shitou who led Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun to cut them all down.
Winter days are much shorter than nights, so they pass by quickly.
Springtime has arrived again in March, a season of renewal for all things.
Many women in the village go to the mountains to dig for wild vegetables.
Wild vegetables at this time of year are fresh and tender, and taste quite good.
Xiao Xiao felt like she was about to get moldy after staying at home all winter.
He then invited Yuan Ping'an and Gun Gun to go hunting together.
Of course, Yuan Shitou also went along.
Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun also frequently went hunting in the mountains.
But Yuan Shitou was always with them; they were never allowed to go alone.
The two of them also particularly loved going up the mountain.
Kids, especially kids like Yuan Gungun, love going on adventures in the mountains.
The family of four packed their things, planning to stay in the mountains for a couple more days.
Anyway, with Yuan's mother helping to take care of Tuantuan and Tiantian, there are no worries.
Her children are all easy to treat and not the type to be overly attached to anyone.
As long as he's well-fed, he can play all day long.
Xiao Xiao and the others went to Misty Mountain again.
Since entering Misty Mountain, they have rarely gone to other mountain ranges.
Because of Yuan Gungun, who's dragging things down.
They didn't intend to go inside.
They set some traps outside and then began searching for prey.
It is springtime, the breeding season for animals.
Of course, this statement applies to those relatively rare animals.
They would love to exterminate those pheasants and rabbits.
To prevent them from wasting a lot of food every year.
Don't underestimate Yuan Ping'an and Gun Gun just because they're small; they're quite formidable.
Each person carried their own small bow and arrow, ready to shoot any pheasant or rabbit they saw.
They actually hit quite a few of them.
Many of them, though not hitting vital organs, still managed to escape with the arrows in their hands.
Xiao Xiao and Yuan Shitou wouldn't interfere with them, letting them do as they pleased.
On the first day, they dug traps and caught some pheasants and rabbits.
They ate early and went to rest.
There was still a circle of fire on the ground, and Xiao Xiao and Yuan Shitou sat back to back in the middle of the fire.
Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun climbed up a tree to sleep.
Both of them liked to sleep in trees.
They felt safer in the trees than on the ground.
Nothing happened that night.
Everyone got up and started cooking.
They planned to go inside a bit more; the animals outside were all small and not enough to satisfy their cravings.
Fearing there wouldn't be time to cook inside, Yuan Shitou roasted four wild rabbits early on.
There are more prey inside than outside.
Yuan Ping'an and Gun Gun also had a lot of fun.
Just then, the howl of wolves came from afar.
