After traveling through time, she happily became the group's favorite

The two women, who dared not speak out but were angry, had a seed of discomfort planted in their hearts and decided not to say anything while on the ox cart.

But when they return to the village, they can say whatever they want. Even if these educated youth have connections behind the scenes, they can't control what they say.

So when the rest of the people returned to the ox cart, they only saw a few newly arrived educated youths chatting happily with Uncle Zhang, and the other two aunts sitting there were talking about gossip about other people.

The backpack placed on the ox cart was also covered with old newspapers, so it was impossible to see what was inside.

So, the people who got on the ox cart this time had no intention of finding out what was in other people's backpacks. Even if they did, they would not go up and ask in front of so many people. After all, no one would tell you what they bought, and they would not do anything like lifting other people's backpacks.

Wang Cui and the other person, who were expecting others to come up and avenge them, looked at the indifference of others and talked about other topics, so they thankfully shut their mouths and glared unwillingly in the direction of the educated youth.

Apart from the initial incident, the return journey was barely uneventful.

After getting off the oxcart at the village entrance, the eight of them gathered together and headed back to the educated youth camp. Wang Cui looked at the direction the eight educated youths were leaving, and also looked at Uncle Zhang's receding back, and began to whisper to the people beside her:

"Hey, don't leave yet. Let me tell you something. Just now, before you got to the ox cart, it was just Dahua and I on it with Old Zhang and the new educated youth. Do you know what was in those new educated youth's backpacks?"

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't curious. After all, it was a foregone conclusion that these new educated youth had good conditions. Moreover, their work clothes hadn't become any thinner or sallower after working for so long, and it was obvious that they had bought a lot of good things when they went to town last time.

Therefore, they were curious about what good things they would buy when they went to the town this time, but the people had covered the baskets tightly with old newspapers, so they were embarrassed to lift the baskets. Now that they heard Wang Cui bring up this topic, they knew. Wang Cui must know what was in the baskets, so everyone stopped.

One of the older ladies, who seemed a bit anxious, came forward and asked eagerly, "Wang Cui'er, what do you mean by that? Do you know what they bought?"

Wang Cui'er puffed out her chest proudly and said, "I definitely know, I told you all, when you weren't here, we were the only ones in the car, and we all knew about it, but I'm the only one who's happy to tell you.

You see, Old Zhang is carrying a cabbage back home. Did you know that the cabbage he was holding was given to him by that educated youth, Xiaolin? That’s why it’s understandable that he didn’t tell you about it.”

When they heard that the cabbage in Uncle Zhang's hand was given by the new educated youth, everyone looked at each other in confusion and began to chatter:

"I was wondering, Mr. Zhang never buys anything every time he goes to town, but today he only got some cabbage. Turns out it was a gift from one of the newly educated youth!"

"They're not really new educated youth. After all, they've only been here a few days. But why would Mr. Zhang give away vegetables when he's fine?"

Hearing this question, Wang Cui'er hurriedly recounted in vivid detail everything that happened on the ox cart and the accusations made by Uncle Zhang.

Special emphasis was placed on what was in the educated youth's backpacks, such as meat, fruit, malted milk, etc., saying that there was a lot of it and it was of good quality.

After hearing Wang Cui's comments, everyone realized why they could always smell the fragrance of fruit on the ox cart.

People who heard these words also started various discussions. Some envied the educated youth who could buy so much meat, some sighed that they bought so many expensive things in one trip to the town, and some said that they didn't know how to live. People said all kinds of things, with mixed reviews.

Among them was the jealous look of the old educated youth Zhao Tingting. When she could no longer hide her jealousy, she said viciously to the team members who were slandering them:

"Tsk, that's right. It's so expensive. We want to live in a big house and eat expensive malted milk, fruits and the like. Look, we have been in the countryside for so many years, have we ever bought malted milk and fruits?

There aren't any at all. And today at the supply and marketing cooperative, I saw the two leaders of their Educated Youth Department, Wang Wenxiang and Xia Zhiyan, ordering two bicycles at the counter of that supply and marketing cooperative!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked again and asked, "What? Zhao Zhiqing, are you serious? They ordered two bicycles?"

Zhao Tingting, who was instantly surrounded, enjoyed this brief moment of being surrounded and admired, and looked back: "It's absolutely true, I was at the supply and marketing cooperative at the time. I thought our educated youth's site was running out of salt, so I went to buy some, and I ended up seeing them ordering bicycles.

They said that they didn't get a reservation the last time they came, so they must book two bikes this time. They were given the bicycle tickets without hesitation, and the salesperson even gave them a receipt!

He handed the two bicycle tickets to the salesperson without blinking, and now he heard Aunt Wang say that the things in their backpacks were either precious malted milk or high-quality fruits.

Not to mention that besides pork, there's also mutton, and all those lush green vegetables. This is a truly enjoyable life. This isn't just going to the countryside; this is directly enjoying life in the countryside!"

After hearing Zhao Tingting's sour words, even those who were just a little envious at first started to feel jealous. Yes, those new educated youth had just gone to the countryside, and they either lived in big houses or had good food and drink. They even had to wear gloves and hats when they went to work, and the clothes they wore never had patches. They were also beautiful or handsome.

Even the other four people who moved out of the educated youth site had never done this before, let alone bought two bicycles at once. And from the tone of their voices, they seemed to have asked about bicycles when they went to town last time, but they just didn't order them.

The fact that they did not give up and continued to place orders this time shows that their family background is not as good as they originally imagined. They can be called wealthy.

In this way, the educated youth who lived in the large blue brick and tile house at the end of the village was so well-off that he ordered two bicycles, bought not only meat, but also many valuable things. The news spread like wildfire and became a hot topic even during lunch break.

Because of these rumors, they were targeted by many people.

Everyone who heard the news had their own thoughts, and the captain who also heard the news angrily pounded the table and complained to his wife:

"I don't know which idiot spread these things. Once these rumors spread, those unruly people in the village will definitely have evil intentions towards the young educated youth.

The reason why these newly arrived educated youth were able to order two bicycles was because they bravely helped the police with a case on the train. The two bicycle tickets awarded by the police were originally a reward for them to make their life in the countryside a little more convenient.

It belonged to the eight of them, and they bought it separately, one bicycle for each boy and one for each girl. But after being passed around by those people, it became the ultimate luxury hedonism for these newly sent-down educated youth!

Aunt Zhou was also shocked when she heard this, and asked anxiously:

"What are you going to do, old man? You have to give them a slap on the head when you go to work this afternoon. After all, the way those kids are dressed and the way they talk don't seem like someone you would mess with.

Maybe they went to the countryside because they couldn't buy much food in the city? And then they suffered these grievances in the countryside, so they must have told their families about it.

I heard that Xiaolin's brother is the head of a nearby army regiment. I don't want him to leave a bad impression on our village when he comes to visit. That would be bad."

The captain sighed helplessly and tapped his pipe beside him, saying helplessly: "Alas, this is the only way.

When the time comes, I will explain the source of their bicycle tickets when I go to work, and then give the team members a warning. If there are really a few ignorant people who come forward to provoke us, it’s not our fault, so you don’t have to worry too much.

Although his brother is a regimental commander in the army, our son is not a bad person either."
