One child, eight treasures, broke the in-laws' family, ten generations of single heirs, and was

The Zhang family's entire dinner was spent in a pleasant and somewhat cheerful atmosphere, and both the guests and the hosts enjoyed themselves.

Because it was already past eight o'clock when they finished dinner, which was considered late in the countryside at this time, Zhang Shengjin asked his eldest son and his wife to send Song Cenyue back to the educated youth center. He was afraid that Song Cenyue had just arrived and it was already evening, and she would not be able to find the way back to the educated youth center.

He asked his eldest son and his wife to send the baby off together because he was afraid that if he sent his eldest son off alone, people would see them walking alone outside and gossip would arise.

"Uncle, no need. I can go back by myself. No need to trouble Brother Zhang and Xiao Meng to send me back." Song Cenyue politely declined Zhang Shengjin's kindness.

Because Zhang Jianxing was older than her, she politely called Zhang Jianxing "Big Brother Zhang", and since Zhao Xiaomeng was only one year older than her, she just called him by his name.

When they were having dinner earlier, a few of them talked about age and asked her how old she was.

"You just arrived and it's dark now. How can we let you go back alone? Don't be polite. Let Jianxing and his wife take you back." Zhang Shengjin said with a kind smile on his face.

Mr. and Mrs. Dong Jinhua and Zhang Jianxing, as well as Zhang Xiaoyun and Zhang Jianbo also echoed the sentiment.

Unable to refuse such a kind invitation, Song Cenyue had no choice but to let Zhang Jianxing and his wife send her back.

At that time, most rural areas did not have electricity, and the Yongfeng Production Team did not have electricity either. Every household was still using kerosene lamps, so there were naturally no street lights.

Although the moon was out tonight, it was only a small crescent and the moonlight was dim, unable to illuminate the road and making it unclear. Zhang Shengjin took out a flashlight that belonged to the production team and gave it to his eldest son, asking him to light the way so that he could send Song Cenyue back.

The youth cadre site was not far from Zhang's home. They arrived there not long after leaving Zhang's home. Song Cenyue stood at the entrance of the youth cadre site and waved to Zhang Jianxing and his wife.

"Thank you for sending me back. Go back soon."

"Okay, see you tomorrow at work." Zhang Jianxing and his wife nodded, and Zhao Xiaomeng smiled at Song Cenyue.

Song Cenyue also nodded and smiled. When she was having dinner at Zhang's house before, she heard the Zhang family talking about some things about work. Everyone had to go to the drying yard every morning to wait for their work assignment. The Zhang family, as the team leader's family, was no exception, so they would see each other again when they went to work tomorrow morning.

After Zhang Jianxing and his wife left, Song Cenyue turned around and knocked on the door of the female educated youth's room.

The doors of the female and male educated youth were both closed, but light was visible through the cracks in the doors, indicating that the people in the room were not asleep yet.

"Who is it?" Wang Ximei's voice immediately sounded in the female educated youth's room.

"It's me, Song Cenyue." Song Cenyue replied.

The next second, the door opened and it was He Xiaolu who opened it.

"Cen Yue, you're finally back. I've been a little worried since I last saw you. I was just asking Captain Ximei how to get to her house. I wanted to go there to find you." He Xiaolu's face was full of joy when she saw Song Cen Yue.

"Why did you come back so late? Have you eaten? When I borrowed the stove to bake potatoes, I specially baked a big potato. I ate half of it and left the other half for you to eat when you came back... I was afraid that the captain didn't keep you for dinner and you would be hungry when you came back."

Hearing this, Song Cenyue felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and smiled, "I'm sorry to have worried you. I've eaten at the captain's house, and the captain invited me to dinner... Thank you for leaving potatoes for me."

"I'm so lucky! I can have dinner at the captain's house!"

A weird voice was heard, Song Cenyue looked in the direction of the voice and found it was Lin Xijuan.

It seems that Lin Xijuan finally came to live in the educated youth camp. In fact, this was inevitable. Her aunt didn't want her to live in her house, so she had no choice but to live in the educated youth camp.

"Song Zhiqing, you are really awesome. The team leader has never invited any educated youth to his home for dinner. You are the first one." Wang Ximei said in a sarcastic tone, with a flash of envy and jealousy in her eyes.

"It's good that this person is beautiful! Haha!" Zhou Xiaoli also joined the sarcastic camp.

"That's right, being beautiful is good. She can even charm an old man like the captain. If he is willing to invite her to dinner, he must have treated her to delicious food! I wonder if the captain's wife will be jealous!"

Lin Xijuan immediately responded to Zhou Xiaoli's words, accusing Song Cenyue of deliberately using her beauty to seduce Zhang Shengjin and having an improper relationship with him.

Song Cenyue narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and a faint light flashed across her eyes. This Lin Xijuan is really tired of living and wants to die!

"Lin Xijuan, don't talk nonsense. Cen Yue is not the kind of person who would seduce men or old men. The captain also looks like an upright person and would not be seduced by beauty. He invited Cen Yue to his house for dinner, it must be for other reasons...

So be careful with your mouth, don't make up rumors to defame Cen Yue, or throw dirty water on her, or I'll tell the captain tomorrow, and he will definitely not let you go if he knows what you just said!"

As Song Cenyue's friend, He Xiaolu couldn't bear to see Song Cenyue being slandered and defamed, so she stood up to speak for her and glared at Lin Xijuan, reprimanding and warning her.

Song Cenyue looked at He Xiaolu, and a warm feeling surged in her heart again. Although He Xiaolu was a little stupid sometimes, she was good to her and would remember the kindness she had shown her before. At times like this, she would stand up to defend herself and speak for herself.

When Lin Xijuan heard He Xiaolu's threat, although she was unhappy and cursed her in her heart for meddling in other people's business, she didn't dare to say anything else. She pursed her lips and then shut them.

She didn't want to anger He Xiaolu and make her go to Zhang Shengjin to complain.

Seeing that Lin Xijuan was so frightened that she dared not say a word, Wang Ximei and Zhou Xiaoli did not dare to say anything, for fear that He Xiaolu would run to Zhang Shengjin to complain. They never thought that Song Cenyue might run to Zhang Shengjin to complain.

Song Cenyue was too disdainful to go to Zhang Shengjin to complain. She didn't need anyone's help in this matter, she could take revenge on her own.

Let’s ignore Wang Ximei and Zhou Xiaoli for now. Although these two people are not good people, their mouths are not too mean. But Lin Xijuan is so mean that she can’t stand her mean mouth anymore. She will never see the sun tomorrow.

Song Cenyue looked at Lin Xijuan's back as she went to get a basin of water to wash up and go to bed, and a barely perceptible murderous intent flashed across her eyes.

"Lin Xijuan, I carried this water. You used my water today, so you have to return it to me tomorrow. You have to carry a bucket of water back to me tomorrow."

Zhou Xiaoli was a little unhappy when she saw that Lin Xijuan went to scoop up her own water for washing without telling her first or getting her consent. She wanted to stop Lin Xijuan, but her eyes flashed with a hint of calculation and she changed her mind and shouted.

Lin Xijuan frowned, "You are too cruel. I just scooped some water for you to wash, and you want me to fetch you a bucket of water tomorrow."

"That's right. She's too cruel, just like a loan shark. She wants people to pay back ten dollars for every dollar they borrow." Wang Ximei, who had always been at odds with Zhou Xiaoli, quickly chimed in and took the opportunity to curse.

"It's none of your business!" Zhou Xiaoli frowned and glared at Wang Ximei.

"Why are you swearing? It's so uncivilized!" Wang Ximei frowned and pointed at Zhou Xiaoli and yelled excitedly.

"Stop arguing, it's time to go to bed. Hurry up and wash up and go to bed. You have to get up early for work tomorrow." He Xiaolu showed an expression of being somewhat unbearable and spoke out to stop them.

"Let me make it clear first, if you use my water to wash, you have to fetch a bucket of water back to me tomorrow." Zhou Xiaoli said after a snort, with an expression that said, "Don't even think about taking advantage of me."

“……”Everyone was speechless.

"You stingy, black-hearted landlord!" Wang Ximei curled her lips and cursed with a look of contempt.

"Xiaolu, Xijuan, Cenyue, don't use Zhou Xiaoli's water, use my water. I still have half a bucket of water. Let's be frugal. It's enough for the four of us to wash." Wang Ximei greeted them warmly, with a kind and friendly look on her face.
