Dressed as a peasant girl, full of happiness

The three were chatting when they suddenly heard a commotion in front of them.

Wei Yuai was young, curious, and impatient, so she stood up first: "Sister, something happened up ahead, let's go take a look."

"Go, have a look."

The three of them arrived at the clinic in front and found a large group of people standing outside the clinic. It was bustling and lively.

Inside the clinic, several female educated youth stood in front of the bed, with a look of disdain on their faces.

A young girl was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes closed, her face pale, her body covered with bruises, as if she had been tortured.

"Isn't this Shen Zhiqing? What happened to her?" Wei Yuai was lively, had a good memory, and knew many people. She recognized the girl on the bed at a glance and couldn't help but blurt out, "She looks like she had a fight with someone."

No one answered her, but the noise in the room was silent for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Wei Yikui was busy looking for disinfectants such as iodine and hydrogen peroxide. When he saw Wei Yuchen and her sisters coming over, he quickly assigned them tasks:

"Chenchen, check the pulse of that female comrade. Miaomiao, go and disinfect that female comrade."

He saw Wei Yuai but pretended not to see her.

"And me, Dad, what should I do?"

It was no longer possible to pretend not to see it. Wei Yikui thought for a moment and said, "If you do nothing, you've done everything."

The whole family knew that Wei Xiaoai's help at the clinic was a disaster. Something went wrong. If she didn't help, how much medical resources could be saved.

Outsiders didn't know the riddle between them, but Wei Yumiao and Wei Chen knew it, so they pretended not to hear it, suppressed their lips, and went about their own business.

Wei Yumiao took the hydrogen peroxide from Wei Yikui, picked up the cotton swab, and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with her?"

"There is a hole on the back of her head. Please disinfect her." Wei Yikui told Wei Yumiao what to do.

Wei Yuchen had already put her hand on the man's wrist. She also recognized the girl on the bed. It was Shen Zhizhi whom she had seen on the train to the army.

She had long known that a silly, naive, and pretentious woman like Shen Zhizhi would not have a good life at the educated youth center, but even if it was bad, she would not lose her life.

"Dad, her breathing is weak and her pulse is disordered. She may have been frightened." Wei Yuchen told Wei Yikui about the situation.

Wei Yikui wrote down the symptoms his daughter described on a prescription pad and began to prescribe medicine.

"Isn't it just a fright? She almost lost her life just now." At this time, a female educated youth standing next to the bed said sarcastically.

"What's going on, Sister Zhou Ying?" Wei Yuai pulled the corner of the female educated youth's clothes and asked in a low voice.

Her purpose of coming out was different from that of her two sisters. Those two came out to help their father with work, but she came out purely to eat melons. She asked her father just now out of politeness, and it was just a formality.

Wei Yuchen's ears pricked up instantly.

Zhou Ying looked around and saw that no one noticed her, so she took Wei Xiaoai's hand and hid aside, then whispered, "Shen Zhizhi was bullied."

"Bullying?" Wei Yuai also asked in a low voice, "Who?

"Wei Dazhuang!"

"No way? Brother Dazhuang is so honest, how could he bully her? If Shen Zhiqing bullied my brother Dazhuang, I would still believe it." Wei Yuai shook her head like a rattle.

"It's true. How could I lie to you if we were close friends?" Zhou Ying was a little anxious when she saw Wei Yuai didn't believe him. "Forget it, I'll tell you from the beginning. Shen Zhiqing got into this trouble because of her own misconduct..."

Zhou Ying opened up and began to tell Wei Xiaoai the story of what happened to Shen Zhizhi:

"It's past eight this evening, and Shen Zhizhi hasn't returned to the educated youth point yet. We were afraid something might happen to her, so we went to find Liu Tao, the person in charge of the execution point.

Liu Tao hurriedly called on several male educated youth to help look for her, but we searched the educated youth compound inside and out, including the kitchen, toilet, and even the storage room, but found nothing. It was as if Shen Zhizhi had disappeared out of thin air, and we couldn't find her no matter how hard we looked.

Everyone realized that something might have happened to her, so we quickly went to find the captain with flashlights.

The team leader also felt that the matter was very serious, and immediately found the young and middle-aged men in the village and went to the vicinity of the Youth League Home to help find someone.

But after a long time of searching, they still couldn't find Shen Zhizhi's whereabouts. They only found a shoe that Shen Zhizhi had dropped not far from the toilet at the educated youth's site.

Because there were recent rumors of robberies in the nearby mountains, the captain concluded that she might have been abducted by a robber. He arranged for someone to report the case to the public security bureau while actively looking for clues.

At this time, everyone thought of an old hunter in the village. The old hunter had a hunting dog, which was a retired police dog adopted by the old hunter's son who was a soldier. The dog was very smart, and if they used it to look for Shen Zhiqing, they might find him soon.

The captain led his men to knock on the door of the old hunter's house and told the old hunter the situation. The old hunter agreed readily at that time.

The old hunter arrived at the scene with his hunting dog. After a careful search, he asked Zhou Ying and others to find Shen Zhiqing's clothes, give them to his hunting dog to sniff, and then let the hunting dog lead the way.

Led by the hunting dog, they soon found the home of Wei Dazhuang, an old bachelor in the village, and found her in the cellar of Wei Dazhuang's home.

As soon as Zhou Ying finished speaking, Wei Xiaoai said angrily: "Wei Dazhuang usually looks honest and simple, but who would have thought that he is a beast in human form, worse than pigs and dogs, with a heart of wolf and a lung of dog."

"Alas, you don't know this. Wei Dazhuang is also very pitiful!" Zhou Ying felt sorry for Wei Dazhuang.

"What's wrong with you? Why would you stand up for a criminal? Do you still have a conscience?" Wei Xiaoai asked Zhou Ying three soul-searching questions in a row.

Zhou Ying almost laughed out of anger: "You don't know the inside story, so you keep talking nonsense. This matter was caused by Shen Zhizhi, do you know that?"

"What's the inside story? Tell me." Wei Xiaoai was not afraid of Zhou Ying getting angry. She and Zhou Ying were close friends, but also bad friends. They would quarrel whenever they met, but their relationship was getting better and better.

Zhou Ying did not argue with Wei Yuai and told Wei Xiaoai what happened:

"After Shen Zhizhi came down to work as an educated youth, she still couldn't get rid of her habit of being pretentious. She acted like a spoiled little lady, bossing people around all day long.

We were all sent down here as educated youth, and no one had the obligation to pamper her. She could show off if she wanted to, but she had to pay. If she didn't want to cook, fine, she'd pay! If she didn't want to do laundry, that was fine, too, as long as she paid, someone would do it for her.

She brought quite a lot of money with her when she went to the countryside, at least 700 or 800 yuan, but she spent money like water and lived off her savings, so no matter how much money she had, it wouldn’t be enough for her to make…”

Wei Yuchen listened to Zhou Ying introducing Shen Zhizhi to Wei Yuai, and imagined how fast Shen Zhizhi spent money, and smiled in his heart.

That's the heroine in the original book, who is loved by her parents, brothers, husband, children and so on. But in fact, without someone to protect her, she can do nothing.

Wei Yuchen could even imagine how pitiful Shen Zhizhi was after being deceived by everyone. Sure enough, she heard Zhou Ying say:

"Everyone found that she was a young lady who didn't care about worldly things. A problem that could be solved with two cents by others would cost only two dimes for her.

In order to cheat her out of her money, some aunties and sisters deliberately made her clothes and shoes dirty, and then washed them for her.

In this way, Shen Zhizhi's money was quickly defrauded.

By the time she realized she didn't have enough money, her money had almost been spent.

During this period, her labor tasks were done by an old bachelor in the village named Wei Dazhuang, because she and Wei Dazhuang were in the same production team.

Wei Dazhuang is an honest and hardworking person, and he often completes his assigned tasks ahead of schedule.

Shen Zhizhi often has to work overtime because she fails to complete her tasks.

Seeing that Wei Dazhuang went back early several times, Shen Zhizhi became wary of him, and once she asked Wei Dazhuang to help him.

At first, Wei Dazhuang was embarrassed and felt that everyone was a member of the same group, so he just helped if he could.

After the two got to know each other, Shen Zhizhi began to order Wei Dazhuang around and act bossy.

At the beginning, Shen Zhizhi would give Wei Dazhuang some compensation, but later Shen Zhizhi had little money left, so she simply left all the work to Wei Dazhuang.
