"I'm going to check now."

Yu Guobao quickly took Qin Xianglian to find the person who spread the rumor. Xu Nuannuan thought about it and decided to go with Mei Xiangcao and Jiang Ting to clarify the rumor.

Finally, through investigation of some gossipy old ladies in the village, it was found that the first person who said this was Meng Qin.

The old woman insisted that it was Meng Qin who said she saw the captain and Xu Nuannuan doing something inappropriate, which made the captain blush.

"Nonsense, absolute nonsense."

So they went to the educated youth site together to find Meng Qin.

Xu Nuannuan’s target was not number one, two, or three, but Meng Qin.

She knew that Meng Qin was a little narrow-minded, but she was also someone who could adapt to the situation. It would do her no good at all if she spread rumors about her.

Jiang Ting rolled up her sleeves and was about to hit Meng Qin, but Xu Nuannuan stopped her: "Let's listen to what she has to say first."

"Sister-in-law, do you want to listen to her excuses?"

"No, we need to first confirm whether she is the one."

As expected, Meng Qin yelled in bewilderment, "I didn't say anything. Who said I saw it? I didn't say anything at all. Whoever said it is not a human being, but a dog, a beast. Born by a mother but not raised by a father. They will never be able to have children in their lifetime. The children they give birth to will have no anus and will poop backwards."

She swore a lot and tried to prove that she was not the gossiper.

Then he went to question those old women, "When did I tell you that I saw the team leader and Xu Zhiqing together? Tell me clearly."

The old ladies all shook their heads again: "You didn't tell us, it was Qin Zhiqing who told us."

Meng Qin, who has always liked to gossip others, wants to beat these old ladies.

"Do you have brains to eat as tofu pudding? Do you just believe whatever Qin Yuping says?"

“Why shouldn’t we believe it?”

Now it is clear that the person who spread the rumor was not Meng Qin, but Qin Yuping.

This time Xu Nuannuan no longer stopped Jiang Ting. Jiang Ting and Mei Xiangcao first grabbed Qin Yuping and beat her up.

"You're a piece of shit, how dare you spread rumors about Nuan Nuan? You think you're living too comfortably."

Qin Yuping didn't expect that her rumor would be exposed so quickly, and she refused to admit it: "I, I didn't say that."

"How dare you speak so harshly!"

Snapped!

This time it was Qin Xianglian who hit her. If Qin Yuping hadn't spread the rumors, she wouldn't have bothered Xu Nuannuan. In the end, she was slapped twice. She didn't know whether Yu Guobao's words about wanting to divorce her were true or not, and she blamed Qin Yuping for all these.

Qin Yuping was regretting her impulsiveness at this time. She was beaten by Meng Qin yesterday because she couldn't find a backer, and she was very resentful. Seeing that Xu Nuannuan was so well-liked by the team leader, she felt indignant.

You know, she was the educated youth in this brigade who was most favored by the brigade leader before, but now she has been replaced by Xu Nuannuan.

Feeling wronged by being bullied by Meng Qin and resentful of having her limelight stolen by Xu Nuannuan, she finally decided to spread rumors about Xu Nuannuan and destroy her reputation.

She hunched her neck like a quail, and even the old ladies began to criticize her.

"We said that the captain and Xu Zhiqing should be innocent. It was you who told us that almost caused us to misunderstand them."

"That's enough, you guys." The team leader lectured them: "Don't be idle and talk nonsense in the future. If anyone dares to talk nonsense again, we will fine you work points. If you don't work, we will fine your sons and daughters-in-law. I told you not to talk nonsense."

The gossipy women immediately shut up, shrank back, and tried their best to make themselves invisible.

Meng Qin also came over and slapped Qin Yuping a few times: "Shameless you, you spread rumors about others and want to put the blame on me, I will beat you to death, you shameless bastard."

After Qin Yuping was scolded one by one, her face was red and swollen. She lowered her head and shed tears, and even her sobs were very quiet.

The captain was still furious. "Qin Zhiqing, for deliberately fabricating rumors and slandering others this time, I will fine you 100 work points and make you carry pig manure for another three months. I hope you can correct your mistakes."

Jiang Ting warned Qin Yuping: "If you dare to cause trouble for my sister-in-law again, I will not forgive you."

Qin Yuping was really scared this time and would never dare to mess with Xu Nuannuan again. Not to mention what Xu Nuannuan would do to her, the people around Xu Nuannuan would not let her go.

"No, I won't ever again."

Qin Xianglian also knew at this time that she had wronged Xu Nuannuan. Due to her face, she did not want to admit her mistake. The captain repeatedly winked at her before she walked up to Xu Nuannuan.

"Xu Zhiqing, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have listened to those gossipy women. It's my fault. Please don't take it personally."

Xu Nuannuan didn't want to make the relationship with the captain's family too awkward, so she said, "I hope Auntie won't make this mistake again."

"No, no, I promise I won't."

At night, the captain's house

The captain said to Qin Xianglian in front of the whole family: "Let's get a divorce."

Qin Xianglian was terrified when she heard this. "National Treasure, why? Is it because of what happened today? I didn't figure it out either. How would I know it was a rumor made up by someone else?"

Yu Guobao is now the team leader and the most powerful person in the village. She has waited so long for him to take this position and will never let him go easily.

Yu Guobao sighed: "It's not just because of this incident. Think about what you've done these past few days. Who did you quarrel with yesterday? Who did you have a conflict with the day before yesterday? Ever since I became the team leader, you haven't stopped."

"Guobao, please don't divorce me. I'm going to apologize to Xu Zhiqing now. I shouldn't have misunderstood her. I'm going to apologize to her and ask her to forgive me."

Yu Guobao called out to her, "Don't go looking for Xu Zhiqing. Our divorce has nothing to do with him. Even if today's incident hadn't happened, wouldn't you still cause trouble in the future? Divorce me sooner so I can have less worries. Don't worry, even though I don't have much money, I will still compensate you."

Qin Xianglian still didn't want to leave. If she left now, she didn't know whether her son and daughter-in-law would let her into the house.

"National Treasure, please forgive me. I will change. I promise to change and never make such a mistake again."

Yu Guobao didn't say anything. She went to find her two sons. Yu Jingang and Yu Yingang didn't say anything either. It was true that since this stepmother came into the family, she didn't help much, but caused a lot of trouble and often made things difficult for their wives. They didn't say anything for the sake of their father's face, but they wouldn't have any objection if their father wanted to divorce her.

"National treasure, national treasure, please forgive me this time. I swear, I will never make the same mistake again."

Finally, perhaps Yu Guobao softened his heart and considered that if he divorced at this juncture, the villagers would gossip about him, so he said, "You also have to go pick up pig manure tomorrow and carry enough for three man-months."

"Ah? National Treasure, how can you be so cruel?"

"If you don't pick, then divorce."

"Okay, okay, I'll choose. I'll choose."

After that, everything went smoothly in Xu Nuannuan's house-building process. Three days later, all the adobe bricks were made, and the foundation was dug and needed to be rammed.

The tamping method at this time is to tie a large stone with a rope, and several young and strong men lift it up and then drop it to hit the foundation. After repeating this many times, the foundation can be made solid.

The ones doing the tamping work were the Yu brothers, Tong Qingmin, Feng Zhiwei, Jiang Ye and Jiang Yang. After the tamping work, the bricks were dry and the house could be built.

Xu Nuannuan wanted to finish building the house while the ground was still wet and before work could begin.

The three adobe houses were easy to build. Xu Nuannuan asked Mei Xiangcao to find two experienced bricklayers in the village. They basically built the houses in two days. They also built the courtyard wall and built a special stove. After drying them for two days, they could move in.

It has been five or six days since Yu Qingqing reported Xu Nuannuan, but the Youth League Office has not yet given any results.

Yu Qingqing was a little anxious and asked Lin Ruyan, "What's going on? It's been five or six days. The Youth League Office should have been able to investigate Xu Nuannuan's family background. Why haven't they sent anyone to handle it yet?"

In fact, Lin Ruyan was also anxious. She was looking forward to Xu Nuannuan being sent to the farm as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, they may have already found out about it and will be able to deal with it soon."

"Well, let's wait then."

They were talking in the yard when a man in uniform came in from outside, pushing a bicycle.

Lin Ruyan and Yu Qingqing's eyes lit up when they saw the person coming, but when they saw clearly that the person was wearing a dark green uniform, the car was painted dark green, and there was a dark green bag on the car, they seemed to lose their joy.

Because the green bag had the post office logo printed on it, this person was from the post office, not the Youth League Office.

The man standing in the yard called out, "Comrade Xu Nuannuan, Comrade Xu Nuannuan, come out for a moment."

When Xu Nuannuan heard the sound, she walked out of the dormitory.

"Comrade, is there a letter for me?"

The postman took out a letter, a withdrawal slip and three parcel slips from his bag and handed them to Xu Nuannuan: "These are all yours. You can pick them up at the post office when you have time."

Xu Nuannuan took a look and saw a remittance slip that was mailed from the Southeast Daily. It must be the royalties for Mo Wuwei's manuscript, and the letter was also mailed from the newspaper. As for the three parcel slips, she was confused.

After taking a look, she found that one of them was from An City, which was a package sent to her by Chang Chunli. Another one had its mailing address in Jing City, which was something sent to her by Old Lady Guan. Another one had its mailing address in the Mo Province Military Region, and the sender was Zhang Jianjun.

Brother Jianjun actually knew that she was going to the countryside and even mailed something to her.

She put away the letter, remittance slip, and parcel slip, and thanked the postman: "Comrade, thank you for your hard work. I'll get you some water."

"No, no, I brought my own water cup."

As he spoke, he subconsciously took out the water cup he had placed in the car railing, opened it and was about to take a few sips, only to find that there was no water in it.

Then he handed the cup to Xu Nuannuan: "Then please pour me some water from your educated youth camp."

Xu Nuannuan took the cup to the kitchen, poured hot water from the thermos for the postman, and came out to return the cup to the postman.

"Thank you, little comrade."

"Nothing."
