"Hey, the captain went to town early this morning, but he brought back several more people?"
"Yeah, what do all these people do?"
"Su Tian, look, the captain has brought people back again."
Su Tian and Ma Chunling were passing through the threshing ground when she was pulled by her to look at the oxcart in front of them.
She found four people on the oxcart: three men and two women.
"They were probably sent down from the countryside. The direction the brigade leader was driving the cart seemed to be the cowshed."
"Oh, right, no wonder the brigade leader had someone build a cowshed a few days ago."
It turns out it was built for people who had been sent to the countryside. The year is almost over, and they've still been sent down. How pitiful.
"Okay, let's go back first."
Su Tian pulled Ma Chunling away, but she noticed that the group of people in the distance looked somewhat familiar.
"Phew, we're here. This is where you'll be staying. It was just set up a few days ago. Come find me if you need anything."
As long as you reform yourselves properly, our village will not do anything else to you.
"Take your things down, and then you can decide how to live."
After giving his instructions, the brigade leader unloaded the oxcart and drove the oxen to drink water.
Wang Shao said with a bitter face, "Since we're already here, let's try to take it easy."
"My wife, Wang Xiu, bring the things in. Let's see how this cowshed is."
Fang Rong and Wang Xiu obediently picked up their luggage. Although it was a cowshed, it was still a mud house with a tiled roof, which was good enough to keep out the wind and rain.
The remaining couple was an elderly pair who had been sent down from Jinshi. They picked up their luggage and followed them inside.
"Hey, there are several rooms here. Let's choose one. They seem alright."
Only then did Wang Shao show a slight smile. At his age, being reported and demoted made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing his state, Fang Rong repeatedly advised, "Old man, you're already here, try to think more positively."
I think that brigade leader is a good guy. Maybe we can pull through and get our names cleared.
"Yes, Dad, don't look so sad. If you work hard here, you definitely won't starve," Wang Xiu comforted him.
Just then, the brigade leader arrived again, carrying some things.
"You've chosen your rooms, right? This brown rice, corn, and sweet potatoes are your food for this month."
If you're going to work, start tomorrow. Let's skip today. There's a stove outside and firewood at the foot of the mountain; you can go and gather some.
We've prepared pots and pans for you in the kitchen. There's a hand pump well not far from the cowshed; you can fetch water there if you need any, it's only about ten meters away.
"Okay, thank you, Captain. You're very kind," Wang Shao quickly said.
"Okay, you guys go ahead with your work."
Wang Shao and the others watched their captain walk away into the distance before their annoyance subsided a little.
The brigade leader came out of the cowshed and went directly to the educated youth settlement.
"Zhou Zhiqing, are you there?"
"Captain, I'm here. What's up?" Zhou Dajun came out of the room and looked at the captain.
"Oh, I want to tell you something. You can pass it on to them later."
It turns out that He Zhiqing had previously been in contact with criminals, but the police station investigated and found it wasn't very serious.
But it was still illegal, so she was detained for a month. That's the news I got at the police station today.
If you see Chen Zhiqing's message, please tell him I'm leaving now.
"Okay, I'll tell them."
The brigade leader walked away quickly. Fortunately, the matter did not spread widely, otherwise the reputation of their Songjia Village would have been ruined by that educated youth, He.
Who are these people? They're always up to no good, causing all this trouble. Since they were sent to the countryside, they haven't been quiet once.
The captain sighed as he walked away; being a captain is really not easy.
"Chen Zhiqing, are you there?" Zhou Dajun knocked on his door.
Chen Gang got out of bed, opened the door, and asked, "What is it?"
“The brigade leader just came over and said that your wife, He Zhiqing, is going to be detained for a month because she had contact with criminals. He asked me to tell you.”
"Okay, I understand."
After finishing his speech, Chen Gang closed the door, and Zhou Dajun could only shake his head and go back to his room.
After a while, he opened the door again.
Now that ugly woman He Hua isn't here, can't he go find Zou Daying?
"Sister Ying, I'm here. Remember to wait for me at home."
Chen Gang walked excitedly and quickly, but when he was almost at Zou Daying's house, he immediately became alert and vigilant.
Just then, Zou Daying came out with some melon seeds in his hand.
Upon seeing Zou Daying, Chen Gang excitedly whispered, "Sister Ying, Sister Ying..."
Zou Daying looked around and immediately spotted Chen Gang hiding behind a tree.
"Brother Chen Gang, what brings you here?"
Zou Daying quickly walked to Chen Gang's side and asked shyly.
"I just missed you. What? Can't I come to see you?"
"Yes, I'd love for you to come see me every day. Come on, I've found a great place, I guarantee no one will see us."
Zou Daying pulled Chen Gang along, and soon they arrived at the outside of an abandoned house.
"This is it. Nobody in the village dares to come here. They say it's haunted. It's just perfect that we're here."
As Zou Daying spoke happily, Chen Gang looked at the gloomy place and felt a little uncomfortable.
But Zou Daying wasn't afraid anymore, so what was he afraid of?
"Sister Ying, let me hug you."
"Ugh, how annoying."
The two embraced instantly, and then couldn't wait to start kissing.
"Brother Chen Gang, be gentle, my mouth hurts."
"good……"
Just as the two were lost in their own world, a cold wind blew by, and the windows of the dilapidated house creaked.
