Yang Zhaozhao was afraid that Li Lihua and the others would run into those hooligans again, so he had no choice but to let them go.
Who knew that as soon as he let go of Li Lihua, she raised her hand to slap himself, but Yang Zhaozhao grabbed her wrist and broke it hard.
Li Lihua gasped in pain: "Let go."
"I'm giving you face, so you hit me?" Yang Zhaozhao said viciously.
Li Lihua was unconvinced: "If it weren't for you, we would have been bullied. You ruined my Qingqi."
Yang Zhaozhao retorted, "You asked for it. Who told you to hurt others first? If you want to die, just tell me. I don't mind saving you."
Faced with the vicious Yang Zhaozhao, Li Lihua immediately backed down. She looked at Yang Zhaozhao angrily but dared not say a word. Together with Zhao Wenwen, she vented her anger on the old bachelor.
The old bachelor was beaten so hard that he screamed and nearly lost his life, and his legs were broken.
Li Lihua warned Yang Zhaozhao: "Don't tell anyone about what happened today, or I will never forgive you."
After all, they almost suffered a loss. If the news got out, they would become a laughing stock and affect their reputation. They would rather suffer this loss in silence.
Besides, the old bachelor didn't do anything except touching them a few times. As long as he didn't really suffer any loss, he didn't want to make a big deal out of it in order to preserve his reputation.
Yang Zhaozhao was not threatened: "It depends on your performance. This is the last time, Li Lihua. If you cause trouble to me again, you won't be as lucky as today."
"If you don't want to die in my hands, you'd better restrain yourself."
Li Lihua bit her lip and clenched her fist as she watched Yang Zhaozhao leave arrogantly.
When he got to Li Yiling, he had already dug out a hundred-year-old ginseng. All the roots were dug out, and each one was very beautiful. This was a ginseng that could be sold for a lot of money if preserved well.
Li Yiling wrapped it with moss and would later find a professional to process it. It turned out to be a very valuable century-old ginseng, the kind that was in short supply.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Yang Zhaozhao took out a lunch box, which contained rice balls that Yang Zhaozhao had made himself, with meat floss, seaweed and other side dishes. It tasted really good.
Yang Zhaozhao made special preparations for the picnic in the mountains.
Li Yili took a bite and squinted his eyes in enjoyment: "Delicious!"
Yang Zhaozhao smiled when she was praised, and she also took a rice ball to eat. Fearing that the taste was not good enough, she also brought some pickled mustard.
The two of them sat on the rocks, eating rice balls and drinking water. They actually found it very interesting and their appetites improved a lot.
After eating and drinking, they rested for a while and continued to look for mountain products in the mountains.
There are quite a lot of hazel mushrooms, small yellow mushrooms, and matsutake mushrooms.
When they came down the mountain at around three or four in the afternoon, they returned with a full load.
The other educated youth also picked up a lot, but none of them could compare to Yang Zhaozhao. All the things she picked up were good things. Just taking the ginseng as an example, it was simply amazing.
Grandpa Wang looked at the intact ginseng and said that Yang Zhaozhao was lucky. If she preserved it well, it would definitely sell for a lot of money.
In the following days, there were still a lot of mountain products. Many people went into the mountains every day, picked up a lot of mountain products, packed them up and sold them in the city. The price was quite good.
Yang Zhaozhao kept the food for himself and also collected some good things.
For example, she will buy high-quality ginseng, whether it is forest ginseng or other ginseng, as long as the price is right.
After Li Lihua found out, she reported Yang Zhaozhao.
Someone came to my house and asked, "I heard you harvested a lot of ginseng?"
"Who told you that?" Yang Zhaozhao had already put the ginseng in a space where no one could find it.
"It doesn't matter who told you this, just tell me whether this happened or not?" The man in the public office was aggressive.
Yang Zhaozhao smiled and said, "No."
"You're lying. Let me tell you, the things in the back mountain belong to the country. Don't think you can own them. You can eat them yourself, but if you buy them, that's speculation!"
Yang Zhaozhao didn't expect that she could be charged with speculation at this time.
"If the leaders don't believe it, they can search it. They just came to visit my home. Is it not allowed to visit people these days?"
The people in the public office were not vegetarians. They used chicken feathers as a token of authority: "Someone reported that you were gathering to cause trouble. If more than four people are caught, follow me to the public office for a talk."
"Let's just study. The college entrance examination is coming soon. Can't we review together?" Yang Zhaozhao knew that someone must be jealous of them reviewing for a long time.
"Why do we have to come to your place to review when we can't do it at home?" the official ordered, "From today on, no outsiders are allowed to come to your house."
Yang Zhaozhao laughed angrily: "They are not outsiders, they are my brothers. We are all workers and farmers, how can they be outsiders?"
They really thought that Yang Zhaozhao was easy to bully. When Yang Zhaozhao tried to reason with them, he was afraid that they would not be able to handle it: "I just want to ask, which law says that you are not allowed to associate with your brothers?"
"Or are you guys a dictator?"
As soon as these words came out, they backed down.
I knew that Li Lihua’s cigarettes were not good to smoke.
Under Yang Zhaozhao's aggressive gaze, the public servants left in shame, fearing that Yang Zhaozhao would label them as leftists.
Li Lihua looked at Yang Zhaozhao who was still doing his own thing and cursed angrily: "The cigarettes were sent away, a bunch of freeloaders, there is nothing at all!"
Yang Zhaozhao found out who had reported it after a little inquiry. She found Li Lihua when she was working in the fields.
Seeing Yang Zhaozhao coming, Li Lihua ran away out of guilt. She was knocked to the ground by Yang Zhaozhao, who grabbed her hair and warned her: "You like to report so much. It seems that you have nothing to do. How about I teach you how to control your mouth?"
After saying that, he slapped Li Lihua on the mouth mercilessly.
Pa pa pa.
After being slapped more than a dozen times, Li Lihua's beautiful mouth became red, swollen and burning. She couldn't see anyone at all and couldn't even eat corn steamed buns.
Zhao Wenwen cooked some porridge for Li Lihua. Looking at the miserable Li Lihua, Zhao Wenwen was secretly delighted and thought with glee that Li Lihua was so arrogant and domineering, but she was beaten so hard that she dared not even fart.
Zhao Wenwen was very happy to see Li Lihua suffer.
If there were any other choice, Zhao Wenwen would not want to be a lackey of Li Lihua. After all, she is poor and doesn't have a father who is a leader!
Therefore, even if Zhao Wenwen had to give up her dignity and backbone, she would still make a name for herself and get into college. She didn't want her children to be looked down upon like she was.
Thinking of this, Zhao Wenwen reviewed another book at night, but Lin Chao finally complained that she was wasting fuel and told her to go to bed early and study again the next day.
Yang Zhaozhao did a test paper and he and Li Yiling corrected each other's papers.
In order to protect their eyes, two candles were lit, as the farm had no electricity at that time.
There is not enough electricity, and only people in cities can afford it.
In the countryside, people usually use kerosene lamps or candles. The poorer ones are reluctant to use kerosene lamps because they are afraid of wasting money.
"That's amazing, Li Yiling, you're really a top student, you got all the answers right."
Yang Zhaozhao scored 100 points.
Li Yiling's mouth curled up due to the praise, and he gave Yang Zhaozhao a score of 98.
"You got one of the multiple-choice questions wrong." Li Yiling didn't expect Yang Zhaozhao's grades to improve so quickly. She had made great progress. If she hadn't been careless, she would have gotten full marks.
"Which question?" Yang Zhaozhao was curious.
When she came closer, she brought with her a hint of fresh fragrance from the bath, which was so fragrant that Li Yiling almost became dizzy and his ears felt hot.
"For this question, I clearly figured it out, so how come I gave the wrong answer?" Yang Zhaozhao regretted it. She was still careless and secretly vowed to be more cautious during the exam.
Li Yiling looked at the face so close to him, his breath paused, his mind was confused, he couldn't help but move closer to her, wanting to kiss her tender face.
Just when he was about to succeed, the curtain was opened and Xiao Cui said sleepily: "Sister Zhao Zhao, aren't you guys going to sleep yet?"
Li Yiling: "......"
