Chapter 37: Reluctant to Leave
On the way back to the Youth House, the two of them were almost silent all the way. After sending the person to the door, Zhou Jingshen stopped and said, "Then I'll go back?"
"Yeah." Song Shuyan responded solemnly.
She raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Jingshen with burning gaze, wanting to wait until he left before going in.
Zhou Jingshen also looked up at her, reluctant to look away, wanting to wait until she entered before leaving.
After staring at each other for a long time, Song Shuyan's eyes became sore, and he frowned and glared at him unyieldingly.
Zhou Jingshen smiled helplessly, raised his hand and touched the top of her head. He realized later that this action was a bit too much. Would it scare her?
He was a little flustered, and his eyes flickered slightly.
"Sorry..." The voice was low and pleasant.
Song Shuyan was full of questions?
Zhou Jingshen was helpless again and raised his hand again. Song Shuyan subconsciously dodged.
But this time he just waved his hand, turned around and left without any hesitation, leaving a sentence.
"See you tomorrow."
Under the dim sky, Song Shuyan's creamy face turned slightly red.
After entering the house, Song Shuyan asked Qin Fei to ask the team leader for leave.
Qin Fei was so excited, "Shuyan, come with me!"
Helan thought, she hadn't asked for leave for a long time, why not ask for leave together?
She walked over to Chunmei and nudged her, "Chunmei, why don't we take a day off and go play in town?"
Chunmei's heart skipped a beat for a second, then she shook her head and said, "I won't go." She couldn't afford anything even if she went.
Her family is still waiting for her to send money back to support them.
People are born different. Sometimes she wonders why some people are born with luxury and even receive subsidies from their families when they move to the countryside.
Some people have to learn to cook, do all kinds of housework, and take care of their younger siblings since childhood. When they go to the countryside, they have to save food and send it back home.
Helan knew that he couldn't convince her, so he pouted for a second, then chased after Song Shuyan and Qin Fei, shouting, "Wait for me, I want to ask for leave too!"
Chunmei pursed her lips and looked at the three people's backs as they walked away dejectedly.
Helan chased after him, thought for a moment, then walked to the other side and forcefully took Qin Fei's other arm.
She still remembers the slap Song Shuyan gave her that day!
snort!
She wanted to win over Qin Fei and try to isolate Song Shuyan.
She held Qin Fei's arm affectionately and said, "Qin Fei, it's too expensive to rent a bicycle in the village for fifty cents a day. How about we rent one together and each pay half?"
Qin Fei was about to speak when Song Shuyan interrupted him, "No need. Comrade Zhou said he will pick us up tomorrow, so we don't need to borrow a car tomorrow."
Helan: "..." It's not comparable, not at all!
"That's great!" Qin Fei excitedly raised his arms and clapped his hands!
When I arrived at the captain's office, the door was closed.
"Let's go to the captain's house and find him."
The three of them changed directions.
Zhang Mingzhu was hanging clothes at the doorstep when she saw Song Shuyan, whose skin was glowing white, walking briskly towards her house under the dim moonlight.
The two people around her have become mere supporting roles.
She shouted at the visitor in a bad tone, "Hey, what are you doing in my house?"
"What can I do in your house? I must be looking for the team leader!" Helan retorted first, and looked at Zhang Mingzhu as if to ask if she was mentally retarded.
Zhang Mingzhu: "..." Her eyes felt sore, the corners of her eyes turned red, and tears were about to fall.
She stamped her feet and blamed her father for being too easy to talk to. These educated youth didn't take her seriously at all!
Look at the educated youth in the next village. They are all respectful to the team leader and his family!
The captain came out of the room, steaming. "Are you here to ask for leave? I've written the note, take it and go back!"
Qin Fei smiled and walked forward to flatter him, "Captain, you are so predictable!"
The captain handed her the note and said, "Okay, go back!" It was not that he was so predictable, but that Song Zhiqing had reminded her in advance.
Helan quickly ran forward, "Captain, there's me too! I want to ask for leave too!"
The captain looked at her carefully, recognizing her. "He Zhiqing? All right, come in and wait. I'll get some paper and pen to write a note."
He then asked the three people, "Would you like some tea?"
"No thanks!" The three refused in unison.
The captain just asked politely, nodded slightly, and turned into the house to find paper and pen.
He muttered to himself, "Where is it? Where is my pen?"
Outside, Zhang Mingzhu shrank her neck guiltily.
She secretly took her father's pen to give to Xue Huaizhou, but Xue Huaizhou refused it. During the scuffle, the pen fell to the ground and the tip broke. Xue Huaizhou said that he would find a way to buy her another one as compensation.
"Mingzhu, where is my pen?"
Zhang Mingzhu pinched her fingers and forced herself to calm down. "Who, who knows where you put it?"
"That's strange..." The captain looked around but couldn't find it.
"Forget it, go to the office and write."
He motioned the three female educated youth to follow him.
Zhang Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief only after watching the person walk away.
At the Youth League Home, Xue Huaizhou is looking for Meng Qingwei to borrow money.
The pen that the captain broke wasn't cheap; it was a Hero brand. Meng Qingwei didn't have enough money. He frowned and looked at Xue Huaizhou in confusion, "Brother, why do you need so much money?"
Xue Huaizhou didn't want to hide it from him, "I broke the captain's pen, I have to compensate him."
Meng Qingwei gasped, thinking that he had broken the pen because he had an argument with the team leader about whether to marry Zhang Mingzhu.
He patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Brother, you are so brave!" He patted him again and said, "Brother, I'm sorry for wronging you!"
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that something fishy happened that night.
Zhang Mingzhu was just taking advantage of Xue Huaizhou's kindness to blackmail him.
Thinking that Zhang Mingzhu is quite pretty, I also feel that Xue Huaizhou doesn’t seem to be that wronged, right?
A daughter-in-law who comes to your door for free.
Why can't he have such good things happen to him?
Oh, what a mess this is.
Meng Qingwei shook his head. Why did Zhang Mingzhu insist on choosing Xue Huaizhou, who already had a fiancée?
This puts people in a dilemma.
Xue Huaizhou also frowned, puzzled.
I don’t quite understand what Meng Qingwei was thinking.
He sighed inwardly, thinking back to the gold bars he had been given two days ago. It was a pity that these could not be exchanged for money now.
Where can he get the money to compensate the captain for his pen?
In the middle of the night, Xue Huaizhou, who was suffering from insomnia again, unknowingly walked to the foot of the mountain and met the brave young man again.
He trembled and stopped the other person from going up the mountain. "Didn't you promise the captain that you wouldn't go up the mountain alone?"
Qin Jin paused, tugged at the hunting rifle on his back, thought for a moment and suggested, "How about you come up the mountain with me?"
That way he wouldn't be keeping his word.
Another person helped him carry the prey.
Xue Huaizhou: "..."
"I'll give you half of whatever I hunt." Qin Jin encouraged him calmly and confidently.
Xue Huaizhou was struggling internally.
He can kill a tiger by himself. There shouldn't be any danger in going up the mountain with him, right?
He is short of money, why not follow him and give it a try?
Qin Jin continued, "I have a way to exchange prey for money."
Xue Huaizhou no longer hesitated, "What are we waiting for? Let's go!"
