The old Party Secretary was so angry that he laughed, "Liang Zhiqing, don't you think your excuse is ridiculous? I've never heard of anyone doing laundry or farm work for you just for entertaining you.
Ask everyone, if there is anyone willing to exchange his boredom for washing her clothes and doing farm work for her every day, I will believe your explanation."
The educated youths burst into laughter. Shi Aihong smiled and asked Yuan Xingyuan, "Yuan Zhiqing, I'll keep you company every day to relieve your boredom. Can you also help me wash clothes and pull weeds?"
Several male educated youth usually don't want to wash clothes, especially those who came with Yuan Xingyuan, when they heard that there was such a good thing.
They rushed to say, "Yuan Zhiqing... Yuan Zhiqing, I don't ask you to help me with farm work, just help me wash clothes..."
Yuan Xingyuan's face turned red, he lowered his head and said nothing, wishing he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
The old Party Secretary glanced at the three of them and said, "You don't need to quibble. After the members reported your abnormal behavior to us, I sent people to follow and investigate you. I have found out the price of your transactions.
Yuan Zhiqing will help you two wash clothes. It costs 30 cents per wash. There is a discount for monthly washing. It costs two yuan per month, which allows you to wash clothes eleven times.
Helping Liang Hongrao pick grass, the work points are counted as Liang Hongrao's. She gives Yuan Zhiqing fifty cents a day. Am I right?
Don't think that what you do is invisible to the world, our members have sharp eyes."
Yuan Xingyuan knew that his affair had been completely exposed, so he stopped quibbling and said in awe, "Old Party Secretary, my family is not well off, and I didn't get a penny when I went to the countryside.
I wanted to buy some daily necessities, so I had no choice but to do this. I promise I won't dare to do it again next time, so please forgive me this time!"
Liang Hongrao and Tong Yujuan also said that they were wrong and hurriedly apologized to Du Jianguo.
Du Jianguo said sternly, "The mistake you made this time is really serious. If the commune knew about it, they would probably criticize and educate you, and even put it on the file.
Considering that this is your first offense, I will not report it to the higher authorities this time, but the village must punish you.
The village has discussed and decided that you must write a profound self-criticism and make a self-criticism in front of all the educated youth.
In addition, the three of you will work separately in the future and go to the fields to pull weeds. The team leader will be responsible for supervising you.
If you do it again, I will report it directly to the township and punish you accordingly."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, expressed their determination to the old branch secretary, and promised to actively participate in labor in the future and resolutely fight against the decadent capitalist ideas.
After dealing with this matter, the old branch secretary left the educated youth site with satisfaction.
In the days that followed, although Liang Hongrao still occasionally slacked off and procrastinated in her work, she never dared to hire people to work openly again.
Time flies, and summer is here in the blink of an eye.
On a summer afternoon, the sun was scorching the earth. By four o'clock, the weather was no longer so hot, so Chu Jingqiu took Jiang Jiang to the mountains to hunt.
In a bush, Chu Jingqiu shot a hare and quietly put it into the space.
Just as she was about to continue looking for prey, Jiang Jiang's voice came from her ear: "Qiuqiu, come and look! There is a pheasant hatching chicks!"
Chu Jingqiu heard the sound and tiptoed over. She saw a pheasant lying motionless on a few eggs.
"Jiang Jiang, put them all into the space and place them on the mountain in the space." Chu Jingqiu whispered to Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang quietly walked around behind the pheasant and put the pheasant and eggs into the space.
Chu Jingqiu shot a roe deer, three hares and two pheasants in the woods, and Jiang Jiang caught two pheasants and two rabbits.
Because the weather was too hot, these meats would easily deteriorate if left outside, so Chu Jingqiu put them all into the space. She specially took out a pheasant and put it in the backpack.
She took Jiang Jiang down the mountain. Just as they reached the grove at the entrance of the village, they found that there seemed to be two figures inside. She quietly hid behind a big tree and looked into the woods.
She actually found a man and a woman snuggling together. The woman was very recognizable, she was the fat man Liang Hongrao, and the man was actually Li Ziqiang.
The two were kissing passionately. Li Ziqiang was relatively thin, and Liang Hongrao's body was as strong as three Li Ziqiangs. Li Ziqiang was holding Liang Hongrao with great effort, which looked very funny.
Chu Jingqiu smiled. She didn't expect that Li Ziqiang had such a strong taste and actually liked girls like Liang Hongrao. She hoped that Li Ziqiang didn't have other intentions!
After returning to the educated youth site, Chu Jingqiu took out the pheasant, cleaned it, and washed the mushrooms picked from the woods. The three of them made chicken stewed with mushrooms, made some pancakes, and boiled some mung bean soup.
During the meal, Shi Aihong said mysteriously: "Let me tell you a piece of explosive news. Liang Hongrao and Li Ziqiang are in love."
Lin Zishan said in surprise: "Aihong, is this true? How could Li Ziqiang be interested in someone like Liang Hongrao? I remember Liang Hongrao had a sable coat. She wore it to buy eggs a while ago.
Da Laba said that she looked like a black bear when she stood, a wild boar when she lay down, and a Tibetan mastiff when she squatted. He also said that if a girl like this didn't lose weight, she would probably never get married.
This Li Ziqiang seemed to be interested in Qin Yilan before. He probably likes petite and delicate girls. I don't believe he would be interested in Liang Hongrao. Aihong, where did you hear this news? Is it just a rumor from someone else? "
Shi Aihong immediately took out the chicken wing she had just stuffed into her mouth and said, "Sister Zishan, what I said is true. Zhou Weidong told me this when we were finishing work today. He said that Li Ziqiang had been pursuing her for over a month, and they had only been in a relationship for over half a month."
Chu Jingqiu smiled and looked at Lin Zishan, "Sister Zishan, what Aihong said is true. When Jiang Jiang and I came down from the mountain today, these two were kissing in the woods. They are definitely in a relationship."
Lin Zishan paused and whispered, "Do you think Li Ziqiang has ulterior motives? He's not trying to use Liang Hongrao's family connections to get some benefits for himself, is he?"
"Sister Zishan, do you think so too? Zhou Weidong and I both suspected the same thing, but Li Ziqiang himself said that he liked Liang Hongrao's simple and straightforward personality.
He really likes Liang Hongrao, so he pursues her, not because of her father's status." Shi Aihong said.
Chu Jingqiu looked at Shi Aihong helplessly, "Aihong, why are you still so naive? Li Ziqiang definitely can't tell Zhou Weidong that he's using Liang Hongrao!"
As the saying goes, speak of the devil and he will appear. As the three were talking, they saw Liang Hongrao coming from the front yard with a beaming face.
As she walked, she was talking to Tong Yujuan beside her and looked very happy.
