Old Mrs. Xu could see clearly from the side that one of the two people was Jiang Lei, and the other was the young man who came with Jiang Lei to ask her why she didn't give all the houses to the educated youth.
Haha, just now the two of them were united in their hatred of the enemy and were using moral blackmail, and now they were fighting each other
Old Mrs. Xu was secretly happy in her heart, she deserved it!
Wang Ying walked forward, rolled up their eyes, and checked them again.
Yang Hong and several educated youth who came to carry people were watching from the side. Several male educated youth secretly glanced at Xu Shuang out of the corner of their eyes.
Is it really okay for Wang Ying to examine other young men's bodies in front of her man
As it turned out, Xu Shuang really didn't care.
After Wang Ying had fiddled with the two people, she concluded: "Malnutrition."
What do you mean by fainted? These two people just didn’t eat well, so they fainted.
Yang Hong was puzzled: "That shouldn't be the case! The old educated youths who lived with them were not malnourished!"
Living with Jiang Lei was Yu Pengcheng, and the two of them lived in the accountant's house. Living with another male educated youth was Wei Qiang, an old educated youth who had been in the brigade for several years.
Yu Pengcheng and Wei Qiang both look quite upright. If they were treated harshly by fellow members, how could they not speak up
Wei Qiang was also standing nearby. He was the one who had carried Jiang Lei here just now. He also frowned, extremely puzzled: "We live in Tian Dashu's house, and we usually have enough to eat and drink."
As a militiaman, Tian Dashu has many brothers in his family. He is good at farm work, and his brothers are all unmarried, so they have no shortage of food.
Wang Ying wasn’t sure either, and she didn’t think the money was withheld by the members.
The families where the educated youth lived were all advanced class families. Even if these families were unhappy, they would not be so shameless as to take away the food of the educated youth.
At this juncture, it was Old Lady Xu who said something fair.
Old Lady Xu looked disdainful and said, "The members must be given according to the amount, and they will not starve. I am just afraid that these two people are mentally ill and have to deduct their own money to subsidize others."
Wang Ying understood instantly, and when she looked at Jiang Lei and the other male educated youth, she was full of sympathy.
Wow, two backups coexisting peacefully, Bai Ling is really resourceful.
Yang Hong obviously understood this as well. She had a gloomy face and really wanted to ignore this mess.
What is this? The male educated youth are competing to show their affection to the new female educated youth, and they are so eager that they faint
These two people must have cotton in their heads!
Wang Ying: "You should just carry the person away. If you have sugar water, give him some. He will be fine after a rest."
One of the young men said quickly: "Don't you have any sugar water at home..."
Wei Qiang immediately reached out to grab the male educated youth and interrupted him.
Wang Ying smiled and said, "I have money at home. If this person comes to my place because of poor conditions, I will give him money. But these two people came to my mother-in-law and said that you educated youths should all live in my mother-in-law's house. My mother-in-law refused to let them live there because she was not aware enough. Then they deducted money from me because they both depended on others. I am not their mother, why should I pamper them?"
Wang Ying saw that the educated youth looked uncomfortable, and guessed that many of them knew about the plan to move into the Xu family. Even though only Jiang Lei and the male educated youth came forward, these people were well aware of it.
Yes, living in the homes of fellow villagers and having to depend on their eating and drinking habits, how could the educated youth be happy living alone
Wang Ying looked at the leader Yang Hong and said, "Captain Yang, I shouldn't say anything about you. After all, you came here to build the village. But look at the situation now. My mother-in-law came forward to accept the educated youth because she was highly conscious. No matter how much you accept, it is also a small token of our appreciation. But what's the result? We who have contributed are considered to be not conscious enough and not contributing enough."
"If that's the case, why should we go to all this trouble? We should just not connect it in the first place, right? We'll still be blamed for our efforts anyway."
Yang Hong's face turned red when she heard what Wang Ying said. She had indeed heard some rumors recently, but she really didn't know that Jiang Lei and this male educated youth came to see Old Lady Xu!
If she knew, she would definitely stop it.
Wang Ying: "Captain Yang, I know it's very difficult for you to come all the way to the countryside, but we can't agree to this. If you all move into my mother-in-law's house, some of you will still be dissatisfied. Before, you were dissatisfied with my mother-in-law leaving the house empty and not letting you move in, and now you are dissatisfied with the fact that my husband and I eat different meals from you. Will there be more complaints in the future?"
Wang Ying didn't have any hope for Bai Ling. This girl couldn't persuade others to come forward, but she was greedy.
If all these people were really allowed to live in the Xu family, after the autumn harvest, would these educated youth not even want to move
Yang Hong's face flushed red, and even her ears felt hot: "No, no."
Yang Hong was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do, but she also knew that her rebuttal to Wang Ying's words was weak and unconvincing.
Yes, this time Jiang Lei and another young man left her as the team leader and walked away alone, which showed that she was actually unable to control these new educated youth.
I don't know what's wrong with each of them. They go to the members to make demands without consulting anyone.
Yang Hong was filled with shame: "We will take care of this matter."
Wang Ying stopped when she saw that things were going well: "Thank you then."
As for the two lying on the board, Wang Ying didn't care at all.
He saved his food rations to give to others, starved himself to death, and then kidnapped her as a doctor
It’s a strange and beautiful thought.
A group of educated youth walked out of Wang Ying's house with their heads down. If these people had previously held some unrealistic fantasies and even encouraged themselves that it was reasonable to live in Xu's house,
Now they don't have that energy anymore.
Wang Ying’s words were too straightforward, telling them directly that it was impossible.
The educated youth had no hope, so they just went back to their fellow villagers’ homes obediently.
However, after Yang Hong felt ashamed, she became angry. She found a few educated youth to inquire about the situation and soon found out the whole cause and effect.
Bai Ling.
Yang Hong was extremely angry. Bai Ling seemed like a good and gentle girl at first, but who would have thought that she would soon stir up trouble among the educated youth team.
First, she would faint frequently while working, and she fainted three or four times. Every time someone wanted to send her to Wang Ying's place, she would slowly wake up and insist that she had low blood sugar and didn't eat well, and that fainting was not a serious illness. She also didn't want to see a doctor, saying that she had no money and couldn't afford the two or three cents to give to Wang Ying.
Yang Hong mentioned more than once that work points could be allocated from the overall work points of the educated youth to be given to Wang Ying, and it would not delay her medical treatment.
But Bai Ling just wouldn't give in.
As time went by, Yang Hong could no longer fail to understand Bai Ling's intention.
He just didn't want to work, or rather, he wanted her, the leader of the educated youth team, to transfer him to an easier job.
Yang Hong didn't indulge her. Later, she realized that fainting was useless. Plus, if she fainted too often, people would inevitably think that Wu Guihua was mistreating her. It would be bad if she offended Wu Guihua, the director of the Women's Department, again.
So, seeing that this approach was not feasible, Bai Ling began to select people to support herself.
Not to mention that big idiot Jiang Lei, he basically spent all the dozens of dollars of family savings he brought with him on Bai Ling.
When Bai Ling came, she only brought one bag, and she was always short of something. Jiang Lei had to find people to exchange tickets for her to buy things in town.
But seeing that Jiang Lei's money was almost spent, Bai Ling stopped giving Jiang Lei positive hints.
Jiang Lei didn't have enough money, so he could only help Bai Ling with work, and from time to time he would share his own food rations with Bai Ling.
The same thing happened to the other educated youth who was hooked up, who also helped with the work and earned his food. However, he had been here for a long time and had long since spent all the money his family had given him. All he could give was labor and food.
Bai Ling's behavior was popular among the male educated youth. After all, although she received benefits, she never showed it on the surface and treated all the male educated youth with the same attitude.
But among the female educated youth, no one looked up to her.
She was not good at work and always said that she was in poor health. But she refused to see a doctor and just said that she was born weak. The female educated youth all avoided Bai Ling and no one looked down on her.
Bai Ling didn't care what these female educated youth thought. In her eyes, only men needed to be flattered. After all, she was counting on getting benefits from them. As for the female educated youth? Each of them was her potential competitor.
It’s just right that we don’t have any contact!
The more Yang Hong thought about it, the angrier she got. She simply said to the educated youths who were carrying the people, "Go back and inform each other. We'll have a meeting tonight."
We can't go on like this. We are in a good group of educated youth. Life is hard for everyone, but there won't be much problem if we support each other.
If we allow Bai Ling to continue to stir up trouble like this, the educated youth team will be hated by everyone wherever they go.
Seeing that Yang Hong was really angry, several male educated youth all shrank their necks and dared not speak.
Only Wei Qiang was fine. He pointed at the two people on the ground and asked, "What about them?"
Wang Ying said that it needs to be filled with sugar water.
Yang Hong sighed. She really wanted to let go and not care whether the two of them lived or died. How could she be so useless as to starve herself to death
"Go borrow it from Zhang Ping and ask her to give her an extra work point from our brigade's collective household."
Zhang Ping was the girl who lived in Old Lady Xu's house, and she was also the one with the best conditions among this group of educated youth.
When Zhang Ping heard about this, she was confused at first, then became angry and scared.
I was angry because I thought these people were gossiping to Old Lady Xu, and I didn't know if it would annoy Old Lady Xu.
What she was afraid of was that she really didn't want everyone to move in. She was even worried that these people would annoy Old Lady Xu, and that Old Lady Xu would kick her and Jiang Li out.
Zhang Ping gave Yang Hong a small bag of candy and hurried off to exchange news with Jiang Li.
"Sister Jiang Li, what should we do? If they get angry and don't let us stay, do we have to move out too?"
Zhang Ping didn't want to move, she was very comfortable living here. Old Lady Xu didn't ask much of them, the only thing was not to dirty or break the furniture at home.
They lived here, and once the door was closed, they lived their own lives. She had money in her hand and secretly went to buy meat, which she and Jiang Li cooked and ate in the house.
Zhang Ping gave the chocolate candies she brought to Old Lady Xu twice, and Old Lady Xu reciprocated by giving her some snacks from her own home once or twice.
The side dishes were made by Xu Shuang, mushroom oil and eight-treasure pickles.
Zhang Ping ate the mushroom oil noodles and thought about the fragrance in her dreams. If Jiang Li hadn't stopped her, she would have gone to Xu Shuang to buy two bottles of mushroom oil and sent them home so that her parents could have a taste.
Zhang Ping: "Sister Jiang Li, what do you think we should do? Should I go to Grandma Xu to give her some gifts?"
Jiang Li comforted Zhang Ping: "No need, Grandma Xu is not that kind of person. Let's just get along as we did before. Send each other some food from time to time... I don't think Grandma Xu is the kind of person who would vent her anger on others."
Zhang Ping calmed down for the time being, but now she was angry when she thought about it: "Why is Bai Ling so mean! She asked Jiang Lei to cause trouble, but she herself didn't get anything good. She also made others look down on us female educated youth."
The members of the society still looked upon them with some respect as intellectuals. Now that Bai Ling and the others were interfering, how would the other members view these educated youth
Do you think the educated youth are all very cunning
Jiang Li has been here for a long time and is much more stable than Zhang Ping. "She won't get anything good, but it won't hurt her either. If Jiang Lei makes a scene, we can all move in together. If Jiang Lei gets slapped in the face, she can also clear herself from the blame. Believe it or not, at the meeting tonight, Bai Ling will definitely cry and say that she didn't know anything."
Zhang Ping hesitated: "But everyone knows it's her. During this period, I only saw Jiang Lei and another male educated youth hanging around her."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "What's wrong with transferring? No one can catch them. Just wait and see, Bai Ling will definitely throw these two people out and only care about herself."
Zhang Ping was skeptical, but the educated youth meeting that evening was exactly as Jiang Li had guessed.
Bai Ling was crying uncontrollably, "I know I'm in poor health and have been a burden to everyone. Everyone doesn't like me. But I really didn't instigate Jiang Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing to cause trouble for the Xu family. How could I dare to do that?"
Yang Hong pressed on: "Then tell me why Jiang Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing's rations were all given to you?"
Bai Ling cried without stopping, choking with sobs: "How could I know that Jiang Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing saved their own food rations for me? I didn't even know how much everyone's food rations were. I thought it was mutual care among the collective. I only had one brother since I was a child, and no older brothers. When I entered this big family of educated youth, I regarded everyone as my brothers and sisters..."
Even though Yang Hong was mentally prepared, Bai Ling still made her very angry.
But there was an idiot Jiang Lei jumping up and down beside him: "I volunteered. Bai Ling only mentioned it. She never asked me for it. She also advised me to eat well and not always send her things."
The other Xu Zhiqing remained silent. He was not as stupid as Jiang Lei. Bai Ling always refused the rations, but he never refused and was very honest. In the end, he gave them to her.
Xu Zhiqing remained silent, while Jiang Lei jumped up and down.
Yang Hong rubbed her brows and said, "Then tell me, what are you two fighting about?"
This must be for Bai Ling.
Jiang Lei was silent in awkward silence, but Xu Zhiqing spoke with a grim face.
"Jiang Lei thought I was shameless and always chased after Bai Ling. He took the initiative to hit me and told me to stay away from Bai Ling."
Jiang Lei: "… This has nothing to do with Bai Ling. It's all because of you being shameless."
Xu Zhiqing looked unhappy. He ran after Bai Ling, which was also a hint and hope given by Bai Ling. Bai Ling mended his clothes and wiped his sweat...
Where is this not a sign of affection
Jiang Lei was not convinced: "He is just shameless, chasing after other people's partners."
Yang Hong looked at Bai Ling: "You tell me about it."
Two male educated youth fought for you, you should at least give an explanation.
Bai Ling cursed Jiang Lei in her heart. This kind of man, with such a bad brain, she couldn't find anyone else but him. And her partner, did she admit it
shameless!
Bai Ling: "I, I don't know... We are all from the same group, so we should help each other, right? I have always regarded Jiang Zhiqing and Xu Zhiqing as my brothers..."
Jiang Lei didn't feel anything when he heard this. Although he was positioned as a brother, he was still a loving brother. It was understandable that the young woman was thin-skinned.
But Xu Zhiqing was different. He chuckled, turned his head and stopped talking.
Bai Ling bit her lower lip, very angry. After what Jiang Lei did, Xu Zhiqing would definitely not be able to take the bait again.
It's such a pity that I lost such a big fish for nothing.
Yang Hong saw that the situation was clear, and also provided a solution: "Jiang Lei, you were the one who started the fight. You will take on our heaviest work during this period, and Xu Zhiqing will also have to do extra work. Bai Zhiqing..."
Yang Hong looked at Bai Ling with an innocent face and felt annoyed: "Bai Zhiqing, we are all brothers and sisters from the same family. But brothers and sisters have to settle accounts clearly. No one has abundant food. You should pay attention to details in the future. Do you want others to give you food? Don't you think about others?"
There is no actual evidence to punish Bai Ling, she can only be punished verbally.
Xu Zhiqing looked unhappy: "I agree with this punishment."
Although he suffered a big loss, Xu Zhiqing looked at Jiang Lei who was still comforting Bai Ling and glaring at Yang Hong, and felt that it was not a loss to pay such a tuition fee to see Bai Ling's character clearly. It was better than giving everything to Bai Ling and then discovering problems.
Jiang Lei was reluctant, but Yang Hong had the final say among the educated youth, so he had no choice but to agree.
Bai Ling's eyes flickered. Yang Hong's words were really unpleasant to hear, but what could she do? She couldn't lose her character.
So Bai Ling also responded hesitantly: "I didn't do well enough. I have never lived in a group before, so I thought wrongly..."
Yang Hong asked the group to disperse, feeling extremely exhausted.
Wang Ying helped Old Lady Xu to suppress the educated youth, and Old Lady Xu was so happy that she couldn't express it in words.
As the weather was getting hotter, Cheng Yu was having fun in the mountains. She tied the sheep to a tree in a lush grassland and looked for food nearby.
So, Wang Ying received food from Cheng Yu.
Snakeberry.
Wang Ying had previously told Cheng Yu that if she was unsure about anything in the mountains, she should not eat it and should bring it back for her to take a look.
Cheng Yu was very obedient. Since she had to help Wang Ying find medicinal herbs, she basically took back any plants she didn't recognize.
Wang Ying also obtained several rare herbs.
Cheng Yu liked the snakeberry this time, with its small clusters of bright red fruits.
But Cheng Yu still remembered what Wang Ying said not to eat it casually, so he brought the snakeberry down to show Wang Ying.
Wang Ying was overjoyed. She washed some and gave some to Cheng Yu, and kept the rest.
"This thing is not only a fruit, but also a medicine that can be used to treat diphtheria, acute perforated appendicitis and jaundice."
Cheng Yu was very curious: "Just such a small fruit?"
Wang Ying smiled and said, "There's more. I'll chop it up a little later. You can take it home and pour some of it into the toilet, and dry some of it in the sun and sprinkle it in places where there are a lot of mosquitoes. This thing has a detoxifying effect, but it's also poisonous and can kill insects."
When the weather gets hot, it's inevitable that there will be troubles with snakes, rats, insects and ants. Wang Ying has already prepared several kinds of medicine and sprinkled them around her home to prevent any diseases caused by unhygienic conditions in the summer.
At the same time, this is also the peak period for diseases. In hot summer, eating bad food or having poor hygiene habits can easily lead to the spread of diseases. Also, if the water source is not clean, it can also lead to a certain degree of malaria.
Wang Ying remembered all this when she saw the snakeberry. She sent Cheng Yu away and prepared to get up and find Wu Guihua to talk about a meeting.
Just as I was thinking about it, Wu Guihua came.
Wu Guihua not only came by herself, but also brought her daughter Xinghua.
Unlike her usual cheerfulness, Wu Guihua felt a little embarrassed this time.
Wang Ying let them into the house and gave Xinghua a small pile of snakeberries to eat.
Wu Guihua: "Well, Ying girl, I'll be frank. Do you think my Xinghua can meet the requirements of the midwife you mentioned last time?"
