The broom was made of thin bamboo twigs, and it hurt a lot when hitting people with it. As long as it hit the body, red marks could be seen. Especially since Su's mother hit very hard, Tian Fang's exposed arms were soon covered with criss-crossing red marks.

Tian Fang wailed and begged with tears streaming down her face, but Su's mother did not soften her heart. It was not until Su's father coughed that Su's mother put down the broom and stared at her viciously, as if she was looking at a heinous person.

\"You have to go to work tomorrow, don't break anything, let's wait until the wheat harvest is over!" Su's father didn't want to send the third son's wife back to her parents' home during the busy farming season and ask her to help her parents.

Isn't it just to stay at her parents' home? Why don't you give her the opportunity to go back to her parents' home to help her with things like bicycles and sewing machines? Let her think about it every day, this kind of mental torture is enough for her to bear.

In fact, in daily life, Su's father would not comment on his daughter-in-law's behavior. After all, if he is not stupid or deaf, he is not a good old man!

If Tian Fang didn't have any bad intentions towards his daughter, he would not bother to take action. She is Su Kang's responsibility. One generation should not take care of the next generation, especially as a father-in-law, he should not interfere in his son's family affairs.

But Tian Fang insisted on making trouble and even touched his bottom line, which was unforgivable!

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Su's mother understood that Su's father must have his considerations for making such an arrangement, so she would ask him in detail when she got back home, "Old Third Wife, from now on, wash the clothes for the whole family at noon before going to work, and you must work 10 work points every day, otherwise you won't have food! And if you do it again, go back to your mother's house. Our Su family can't support a big Buddha like you!"

Tian Fang agreed tearfully, but she was planning to wash the clothes quickly and go back to her parents' home tomorrow at noon.

She wanted to go back and ask her parents what to do next. She couldn't bear to see her own brother unable to find a wife, nor could she bear to see her parents so sad. As for Su's mother, humph, she gave birth to a son for Su Kang, so she dared not send her back to her parents' home, and she was happy on the surface!

No, there is also Father Su. He just said that he would wait until the wheat harvest was over. What was he going to do? Was he also going to drive me back to my parents' home?

Tian Fang suddenly shook her head. She was not afraid. If they really wanted to send her back to her parents' home, she would take Aiguo with her. As long as she had Aiguo in her hands, every member of the Su family would have to bow to her!

Tian Fang went to bed with a peaceful mind, and Su Kang felt upset when he saw Tian Fang act like nothing happened after she finished crying. There was something wrong with this person. How could she calm down so quickly? Normally, she would cry all night until he surrendered.

She must be harboring bad intentions, he must keep a close eye on her!

Li Wenxuan and Wang Danju returned to the educated youth institute. The other educated youth saw that they were in dishevel and looked very embarrassed, so they asked them what happened. The two of them had a blank expression on their faces, and they went back to their rooms without responding to others' concern.

The educated youth were confused. Seeing a villager outside looking at them curiously, Wang Yuhe went up to him and asked if there was anything wrong. The villager told the whole story, adding fuel to the fire, about the two people having an affair in the grove. He also emphasized that Li Wenxuan was being chased by Su Yunyun for a debt and had to pay it back tomorrow.

The educated youth were stunned. What was going on? Wild mandarin ducks? Being chased for debts?

They all know the characters, but what do they mean when combined together?

The villagers saw that the educated youth in the yard were stunned after hearing what he said, and left with satisfaction!

What Han Sen said was absolutely right. As long as he explained to the educated youth what these two had done, he would be able to see the educated youth become stunned into a group of fools!

The educated youth in the yard looked at each other as they watched the villagers go away, with dissatisfaction gradually appearing on their faces. What did these two people want to do?

It was already difficult for them, the educated youth, to integrate into the village and their situation was very difficult. If it were not for the fairness and impartiality of Team Leader Su Ping, they would not get many work points even if they did the most tiring work, and their food would be even less. How could they survive the freezing winter?

Haven’t you heard that some educated youth in other villages didn’t even survive the winter because they were ostracized?

Now they finally gained the recognition of the villagers, but just a few days after they were happy, these two caused this incident!

When the educated youth thought about the way the villagers would look at them tomorrow, they felt uncomfortable and made a big fuss!

But seeing that the two men said nothing, they couldn't bring themselves to drag them out to ask for an explanation, so they simply went back to sleep and would talk about it tomorrow morning!

As a result, when they woke up in the morning, they found that Li Wenxuan and Wang Danju were not in the educated youth institute, and they didn't know when they left.

When everyone was feeling depressed, Wang Yuhe took out a piece of paper from the house, on which was a message from Li Wenxuan: Please help ask the team leader for leave for me and Wang Danju. I have a footache and I am going to the county to see a doctor, but the journey is too long and I need someone to take care of me, so I asked Wang Danju to go with me. Thank you.

Can't we go to the village clinic? Besides, Uncle Li said there was nothing wrong with his foot. He was still talking about his foot. Could he be hiding from his debts?

The educated youths' faces turned pale when they thought of this. It would be easy for the two of them to run away, but what would they do if they stayed in the village?

Wang Yuhe looked at the silence of the crowd, thought for a moment and said a few words to comfort them: "Li Wenxuan and Wang Danju will not run away, and they can't run away. Where can they go without a letter of introduction? They must come back today, but I don't know when they will come back."

"But Su Yunyun came to collect the debt today. If we can't find them, she will definitely think that the two of them ran away."

"Wait until Su Yunyun comes, I'll talk to her. It's my fault for living in the same room with Li Wenxuan, but I didn't notice when he left. Alas!" Wang Yuhe sighed and took the initiative to take on the task of explaining.

"Two evildoers! I never thought they were such people!" One educated youth spat, and the other educated youths also felt the same way.

When Su Ping was at work, he learned that Li Wenxuan and the other two had gone to the county. He was not worried that they would run away, because the letter of introduction was not issued. If they tried to run away and were caught, they would be sent back. At that time, there would be this record in their files, which would be equivalent to a stain, and they would have no chance of returning to the city!

However, he didn't want them to go back to the city. Otherwise, why did he ask them to write a self-criticism yesterday? Wasn't he planning to put it in their files?

Su Ping took some time to go back home and told Su Yunyun, who was looking after the children at home, not to go to the educated youth institute and to wait until after work in the afternoon to go because she thought the children would be back by then.

At noon, Tian Fang quickly stuffed her meal into her stomach, carried a basin of dirty clothes, and ran out, saying she was going to wash clothes. Su's mother felt uncomfortable for a while. Has this lazy daughter-in-law become more diligent? Did the beating she received yesterday work?

Tian Fang went to the river to quickly beat the clothes, rinsed them and wrung out the water, then picked up the basin and hurried to her mother's house. She put the basin down at the door and rushed to the yard, kneeling down in front of her parents who were going to rest, "Dad, Mom, I'm incompetent. I didn't get the bicycle or sewing machine!"

She sobbed bitterly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

The parents of the Tian family paused, turned around and looked at Tian Fang, and cursed Tian Fang for being incompetent in their hearts. The obese Tian younger brother who was sitting under the tree to enjoy the cool air stood up suddenly, his fat body trembling, and pointed his fat index finger at Tian Fang's nose and cursed: "How can you be a sister like you? You are useless! Su Kang is from the supply and marketing cooperative, how can he not even get a bicycle and a sewing machine? I don't believe it, you didn't tell him because you didn't want to do it!"

As soon as Tian Xiaodi said this, Tian's parents' faces changed. They looked Tian Fang up and down and said, "Whether your brother can find a wife depends on you. How can you be so cruel and not help him as a sister?"

Tian Dadi and his wife stood aside and did not get involved. After all, whether Tian Xiaodi could get married or not was none of their business. As long as they had enough food and warm clothes, and their son Dashan was not hungry, that was enough!

Tian Fang burst into tears and sobbed as she told the story, "Dad, Mom, you don't know how badly I was beaten. Look at the red marks on my arms. They were all caused by my mother-in-law. It hurts so much!"

Seeing that Tian Fang's arms were covered with red marks, Tian's mother believed that she was not lying, so she went forward and helped her up in a hypocritical manner. "Oh, my poor daughter, how could that old hag beat her like this?" She wiped away her non-existent tears while saying, "No, I have to ask for an explanation for my daughter, old man, come with me!"

Tian Fang was deeply moved by the look on Tian's mother's face that showed she wanted to help her vent her anger. She thought that her parents still loved her and she had to be more filial to them.

"Dad, Mom, you don't have to go. I'm short on time. I just wanted to ask what to do next. I will definitely buy a bicycle and a sewing machine for my younger brother, and I will definitely bring him a wife home!" Tian Fang was so moved that she made a big promise!

"My dear girl, I'm sorry to put you in a difficult position. It's all because of your parents' incompetence!" Tian's mother lowered her head and her voice trembled as if she was crying, as if she was really a loving mother who loved Tian Fang deeply but was helpless.

Tian Dadi and his wife were so annoyed. Can't they just sleep in bed in such a hot day? They had to put on a show of loving mother and filial son. It would be fine if it was just about right!

"Mom, please stop crying and tell me what to do, or my wife will be gone!"

\"That's right, mother, it's only natural for my sister to help me, why are you crying? Hurry up and do as big brother says and think of what to do!" Little brother Tian pushed mother Tian impatiently to find a solution quickly.

"Fangzi, you said that your sister-in-law can get 200 yuan. Is that true?" Tian's father, who had not spoken a word, asked Tian Fang.

"Really, my eldest uncle came back and said that the educated youth Li would return the money today," Tian Fang quickly stood up and watched her father reply carefully, "From what Su Yunyun said, he was going to ask for the money at noon today, but the educated youth has not returned from the county yet, so we can only go after work in the afternoon to ask for it."

"Are you sure you want this money back and your parents-in-law won't take it?"

"Well, Su Kang said that the money belongs to Su Yunyun, and no one in the family will want it." Tian Fang was very angry. Why could Su Yunyun hold the money in her hands while she had nothing? She did not reflect that she had given every penny of her money to her parents as a filial piety.

"Your parents-in-law are really stupid. They think a little girl is a treasure for keeping the money for themselves," Tian's father said with disdain, shaking his head. "But this is convenient for us."

"Fangzi, if Su Kang doesn't ask Su Yunyun for money, you can go and get it yourself!" Tian's father ordered directly.

"What do you mean I should get it myself?" Tian Fang was confused and didn't understand what her father meant.

\"Just find out where Su Yunyun keeps her money, and then take it out when no one is paying attention." \" Father Tian was so disappointed that he had to repeat such a simple sentence himself.

"But, Dad, this is stealing..."

"What's the point of stealing? They are all family members. Just use them." Tian's father smiled strangely.

"But if I were to be discovered, I would be beaten to death by my mother-in-law, and others would also say I was a thief. I would be sent to the commune for criticism." Tian Fang thought of how fiercely her mother-in-law beat her and how she knelt in front of everyone and was thrown rotten vegetable leaves and stones. She trembled with fear and took a step back.

"You useless thing, you've already given birth to Aiguo. For Aiguo's sake, the Su family has to keep it a secret for you. Otherwise, if Aiguo has a thief mother, it will be a disgrace to the Su family!" Tian's father instructed Tian Fang, "At most you'll get a beating, but if you bring the money, your brother can marry a wife home."

"For your little brother, it's worth it even if you get beaten!"

Tian Fang slowly calmed down, thinking about what her father said, and pondered for a while, "Dad, you are right, now my little brother's marriage is the most important thing, I am not afraid of a little grievance."

"That's right, my dear girl!" Father Tian said slowly, turned around and went back to the house.
