Since you can get work points by working, no one minds working two more days, not to mention that you can get an extra bag of food and two dollars.
No one is stupid enough to refuse.
As for the Qin family, before the three of them even reached the door, they heard constant cursing from inside. Yu Hongying pulled Chen Tan and didn't let her in, only letting Meng Wenwu in.
After a while, Meng Wenwu came out with a dark face.
"What kind of family is this? They hurt themselves, and now they blame this and that. Ugh."
It turned out that Qin Dashun had injured his foot, lost his patrol job in the militia camp, and could not go to the fields to earn work points, so his wife took her anger out on Qin Wuqiang.
Lu Yuefeng was well-known for her favoritism towards her youngest son, so how could she tolerate her eldest daughter-in-law taking out her anger on her youngest son?
He Fangcao became their punching bag. When Meng Wenwu entered, they were beating He Fangcao.
He couldn't stand it and said a few words. The two shrews pointed their fingers at him, saying that he shouldn't let the villagers build a bamboo shed there.
If there wasn't that bamboo shed, there wouldn't be so many things happening.
Damn it, he asked the villagers to build sheds so that the members could store firewood, not so that they could mess around.
What a crazy family, they are so self-deprecating that they don't even realize it.
Before he could finish his complaint, Yu Hongying pulled Chen Tan away so as not to dirty the little girl's ears.
She walked them down the hillside and said, "Tan Nier, after all, we are building a road for your family. Tomorrow, make some tea and bring it down for everyone to drink, so that some people won't gossip."
"Okay, I understand."
The next morning, Chen Tan got up early and said, "Grandma, I'm going to the county."
"What do you want to buy?" Qin Qiuniang asked.
"I'm worried they'll take the money but not work, so I'll go buy a few pounds of candy."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Qin Qiuniang was worried about her, but after thinking about it, she realized that there was no one to accompany her, so she could only let her go alone.
Chen Tan pushed his bicycle to the entrance of the village and got on the newly built wide road. The ride was particularly smooth.
It took only ten minutes to reach the brigade headquarters.
"Hey Chen Tan, wait for me."
Fang Yuting was riding a bicycle to the county when she happened to meet Chen Tan.
In the past two days, she has asked around, but couldn't see any charm in Chen Tan. Is there something wrong with Qin Li's eyes, or is he bewitched?
Why doesn't she want it?
Today, she wants to see how she compares to her.
Chen Tan turned around and smiled lightly, "Is Sister Yuting going to the county too?"
"Yeah, are you going to the county town too? We happen to be going the same way."
Fang Yuting pedaled hard a few times to catch up with her.
Her bicycle is also a women's model, and it is the same brand as Shen Tan's.
Chen Tan walked side by side with her, "Sister Yuting, school hasn't started yet?"
"School starts on the 25th of the first lunar month," Fang Yuting said in a slightly cold tone. "Hmph," she said, wanting to mock her again. "I really envy you guys. You don't have to think about doing homework. I'm exhausted every day. I don't even want to go to school anymore."
"You are so lucky, but you don't know how to appreciate it. We envy you so much. If I could go to college, I would be so happy."
Chen Tan pretended not to understand her words that were meant to mock her, and spoke in an innocent and exaggerated manner.
In fact, she also wanted to find out some things about the school from Fang Yuting. Besides, it would be even better if Fang Yuting could buy some books for her and send them back.
Fang Yuting stopped abruptly after hearing her words. "Aren't you mocking me by saying those words?"
"Why am I mocking you?" Chen Tan looked at her in confusion.
"It's just me and Qin Li..." Fang Yuting didn't know whether Chen Tan knew about her and Qin Li's past, so she stopped talking. "Are you really envious of us being able to go to school and go to university?"
"Of course you can read books and newspapers, and you can even work in the city. You can earn a lot of money, buy beautiful clothes and vanishing cream, find a cultured lover, and even give your children milk powder from birth and go to good schools. Isn't that enviable?"
After hearing Chen Tan's series of sighs, Fang Yuting felt that she was ungrateful.
"You know what? My mom said the same thing, but I just like the countryside. I can be with the people I love, and I don't mind doing farm work."
After she said the last sentence, she secretly glanced at Chen Tan, wanting to see her reaction.
However, Chen Tan stared at her in confusion, "But farm work is very tiring. You have to deal with mud every day. Even the most beautiful clothes will look ugly on farmers.
Look at you, your clothes are so beautiful, and you have the air of calligraphy and painting. I dream of becoming someone like you."
"That's a pity. If you marry Qin Li, you're destined to be a farmer for the rest of your life. He can't leave these mountains."
Fang Yuting's aversion to Chen Tan gradually disappeared, and there was less guard in her words.
Chen Tan didn't understand why she said that, but she didn't ask directly. Instead, she used another way to induce Fang Yuting to tell her the reason.
"My eldest brother is saving money. When a place becomes available in two years, he will also go to college. Then I will go with him. We will go to college together and work in the factory screwing screws together instead of farming."
"Is this what Qin Li told you?"
Fang Yuting didn't believe it. If Qin Li was willing to leave, he would have gone to college with her long ago. How could there be any incident with Chen Tan?
However, from the way she spoke, Chen Tan seemed to really want to go to college. If she went to school, she and Qin Li would have to separate...
Fang Yuting was secretly delighted. When she finished school and returned to the Hongyao Brigade, she would be able to be with Qin Li again.
Chen Tan shook his head guiltily, "I just thought about it myself, big brother never said it."
"I told you, Qin Li will never leave here, not even if the sky falls," Fang Yuting said, with a hint of resentment in her tone, "Chen Tan, do you really want to go to college?"
"Well, my parents beat me up when I was little. My biggest wish is to study, go to college, and then leave here and never see them again."
Chen Tan's voice was hoarse, but his eyes were extremely firm.
Fang Yuting looked at her, feeling a bit of pity in her heart. "If you really want to go to college, I can help you, but you have to be enrolled in high school first."
"Then how can I get a high school enrollment?"
Chen Tan frowned. There was no description of the college entrance examination requirements in the book, and she had been thinking about this for some time.
The original owner had never been to school and had no student record. If he went to register directly when the time came, it would probably not be possible.
It seems that she still needs to look for Li Qiong more often to see if she can get her a high school enrollment.
Fang Yuting shook her head. "I don't understand either. I can ask for you."
Chen Tan's eyes were filled with joy, "Okay, when I go to college, I'll treat you to a drink."
Fang Yuting was amused by her cute appearance. "If you don't want to stay here, you have to give up Qin Li. Are you willing to do that? He won't go to school with you."
Anyway, you don't want Qin Li, so don't blame me for fighting for Qin Li.
