Zhao Xiaoli vehemently denied it, saying, "It wasn't me. I didn't bring any canned food at all. Of the three educated youths who came down this time, only Li Xiyue came from the best-off family, and only she brought canned food!"
“That’s right, Li Zhiqing is trying to turn the tables on Zhao Zhiqing.” Xu Dawei was already convinced that Li Xiyue was the one who threw the glass.
"Just because I had the canned food doesn't mean I made it!" Li Xiyue retorted. "I left the canned food in the dorm without locking it. Didn't she steal it when no one was in the dorm and then frame me?"
"She hasn't shown up all morning. Could it be that she's doing something shady behind my back?"
Wang Jiaxing agreed with Li Xiyue's words, "Captain, Deputy Captain, I believe that Li Zhiqing is not that kind of person. On the contrary, Zhao Zhiqing is very likely to do such petty theft."
"You're all in cahoots! You've all ganged up on me! Captain, Li Xiyue even stuffed cow dung into my mouth and wouldn't let me eat... You have to stand up for me!" Zhao Xiaoli cried, feeling wronged.
Stuffing cow dung into her mouth?
Everyone was stunned. Li Xiyue, this girl who looked clean and pretty, actually did such a disgusting thing?
Xu Dawei exclaimed in shock, "Li Zhiqing, how could you do such a thing? How could you treat your comrades like this? This is capitalist behavior. Aren't you afraid of being cut off from the capitalist's tail?"
"Vice Captain, that's not how it is. Don't listen to Zhao Zhiqing's nonsense." Wang Jiaxing was extremely anxious.
Zhao Xiaoli is shameless. She doesn't say a word about what she did, yet she tries to ruin Li Zhiqing's reputation.
Zhao Xiaoli continued, "Wang and Huang, the educated youth, also had illicit relationships."
"You're talking nonsense!" Wang Jiaxing's fists hardened; he had never been so angry before.
What a shameless woman! I want to beat her to death!
The villagers who were watching all started to condemn Wang Jiaxing.
"This Wang Zhiqing, who usually seems like an honest and upright person, is actually this kind of person."
"How many men are honest? Only those hanging on the wall can be honest."
"That's true. The new female educated youths are all incredibly beautiful; he definitely won't be able to resist them..."
Seeing that the conversation was getting increasingly offensive, Xu Guoqiang slammed his fist on the table in anger, "Enough! Shut up, all of you!"
Xu Guoqiang had served as the brigade leader for many years and was extremely authoritative. When he spoke, no one dared to say anything, and the scene fell silent.
“Zhao Zhiqing, stop crying like this. Wang Zhiqing already told me what happened this morning. Although Li Zhiqing’s actions were a bit extreme, you are the one who is wrong. Don’t bring your landlord attitude to me. I can’t stand you like this.”
Zhao Xiaoli bit her lip, her face turning bright red.
Why is the brigade leader also helping Li Xiyue? And why is he putting such a big accusation on her?
"Captain..." Xu Dawei didn't understand why Xu Guoqiang had been speaking up for Li Xiyue all day, and couldn't help but speak up.
Xu Guoqiang glared at him and said, "Shut up! The matter hasn't even been investigated yet, and you're already making it public knowledge. If everyone acted like you, what would you accomplish?"
Xu Dawei lowered his head after being scolded.
Xu Guoqiang then turned to Li Xiyue, and seeing her acting as if nothing had happened, he became even angrier. "And you, don't you have a mouth? Can't you explain yourself? If you can't, then you've done it!"
Li Xiyue said, "We each have our own version of events, and neither of us is convinced of our own version of the truth."
"Then what do you mean?" Xu Guoqiang glared at her.
Li Xiyue glanced towards the door and saw Sun Xia arriving with someone. She smiled and said, "Unless there are other witnesses."
Xu Guoqiang glared at her, but still turned to the onlookers as instructed and asked, "Did any of you see the female educated youth go to the paddy fields today?"
"Captain, I saw it." At this moment, a male voice rang out.
Everyone looked over and was surprised to see that it was Xu Xiangyang.
Xu Guoqiang was taken aback and looked at the person who walked over, "Xiang Yang?"
He despises female educated youth the most and never gets involved in these matters. Today, not only did he come, but he also got involved. Has the sun risen in the west?
Li Xiyue was also a little confused. Sun Xia hadn't brought him, so why did he step forward?
Sun Xia and a woman exchanged a glance, both looking puzzled. How could Li Xiyue have another helper?
"Captain, I saw her sneaking around in the paddy field all alone this morning," Xu Xiangyang said, pointing to someone.
Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing and saw that he was pointing to Zhao Xiaoli, and their hearts immediately swayed.
Zhao Xiaoli was surprised that someone had seen her and panicked, but she still refused to admit it and retorted, "You must have been bribed by Li Xiyue and conspired with her to frame me."
