Send me to the countryside? Turn around and make you homeless!

"I moved something?"

Li Xiu was stunned. She had just entered the kitchen and moved a kitchen knife, firewood, and matches. What else did she move? How could this Tian Zhiqing in front of her be so unreasonable?

"You're still pretending!"

Tian Cuiying rolled up her sleeves and looked at Li Xiu with unfriendly eyes.

She just disliked these people. When the locusts came in large numbers, they ate up all the food in the fields. Not only did they not want to help, but they actually ran into the mountains.

So many people spent the whole day looking for them. Do you know how much work was wasted?

When they were threshing and plowing the land yesterday, the female members of the brigade were pointing fingers at the educated youth and saying that they were not easy to work with. They also said that all the blame was on these newcomers.

The house, which was already too small to accommodate them, had to make room for them, which caused Linlin and I to be separated. It was all their fault.

As soon as she arrived at the educated youth site, she rummaged around and touched other people's things without even saying a word, but she didn't wrongly accuse anyone.

"Why am I pretending? I told you I'd pick up the firewood and return it to you. As for the matches, I used my own. As for the knife, it's ours too. How could I have used anything from someone else?"

"You're still quibbling! That fish, isn't it yours and not someone else's? How can a woman like you be so shameless?!"

Tian Xiuying put her hands on her hips, pointed at Li Xiu's nose and called her a thief.

"Comrade Tian, ​​these fish are ours. We brought them back from the Shuiwazi Brigade. If you don't believe me, you can go to the brigade and ask around to see if I'm right, instead of making a scene here and accusing others of being thieves without any evidence."

Tan Yuan was listening nearby and she said coldly, even if she didn't have any bad intentions, she said those words and the damage had already been done.

"Shuiwazi Brigade?"

Tian Xiuying paused. How was this matter related to the Shuwaizi Brigade?

She cast a puzzled look at her good friend Luo Linlin. Luo Linlin also looked puzzled, but she was quicker than Tian Xiuying and reacted quickly and hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

"It's Xiaoying and I's turn to cook today. All the vegetables in the field have been eaten by locusts. We went up the mountain early this morning to look for wild vegetables, so we don't know much about this. I just heard the men say they went fishing last night, so..."

She wanted to say something but stopped herself, her eyes moving back and forth between Tian Cuiying and Li Xiu. She knew what they meant without having to say anything.

"That's why Xiaoying was so impulsive when she saw the fish. I'm so sorry. I apologize to you on Xiaoying's behalf."

Li Xiu and Tan Yuan hadn't expressed any opinions yet, but Luo Linlin's voice was full of grievance. Even Tan Yuan, who couldn't see, could hear the crying tone.

"Linlin, it's not your fault, why are you apologizing!"

Sure enough, Tian Cuiying couldn't stand it when she heard it. She pulled the aggrieved Luo Linlin and looked at Tan Yuan with anger. It was because of Tan Yuan's words that Linlin cried out of grievance.

"I'll find out if the fish is from our educated youth camp, but you must apologize to Linlin!"

? ? ? ?

What does that mean? Did she do something wrong? Why is she apologizing?

"Xiaoying, it's okay, I'm fine. Let's go and cook. We can't keep everyone waiting."

She smiled at Li Xiu again and said, "Sorry, you may have to wait a while before using the kitchen. Everyone is still working in the fields and on the threshing floor. We have to hurry up and go over to deliver the meal later."

After saying that, she prepared to pull Tian Cuiying away.

"and many more."

Tan Yuan had experienced this many times, and her reaction was much faster than Li Xiu's.

"Are you planning to leave just like this?"

"What else do you want? I'm telling you, if this fish isn't given to you by the Shuiwazi Brigade, we're not done yet!"

Why did the Shuiwazi Brigade give fish to a few newly educated people? Isn't this just deceiving fools? She would definitely ask them and see what they would do when the truth came out. She absolutely did not want to live with a few thieves!

"This fish was given to us by the Shuiwazi Brigade. How can you be so unreasonable?"

Li Xiu was so angry that she almost cried. She had been poor since she was a child, but no one had ever called her a thief. This was the first time. How could she not be angry?

"Forget it, forget it, let's just forget about this. I apologize to you, Xiaoying, let's go quickly."

How did things develop into this? Luo Linlin didn't quite understand, and she felt very guilty towards Tian Cuiying. It was all her fault for speaking so harshly. How could she say the word "thief" so casually?

She just said it clearly, it seems like, how can she talk like that?!

But they were still her good friends, so she had to defend them. Luo Linlin felt so upset that she apologized to them profusely, with tears in her little eyes.

When Tan Yuan heard Luo Linlin's reaction, she knew in her heart that she must be the one behind this. She ignored Luo Linlin's words and spoke only to Tian Cuiying, the person involved.

"I said this was a gift from the Shuiwazi Brigade, and you said it was fished by the educated youth from your educated youth camp. This is a matter concerning both our reputations, so how can we just let it go? So, go ask. If you're still not satisfied with the answer, go find the educated youth who fished there. We're willing to confront him, but if you're wrong, you have to apologize to Li Xiu in front of everyone."

Tan Yuan doesn't speak fast or sharply, and she doesn't sound aggrieved like Luo Linlin. She just speaks in a leisurely and convincing manner.

"Alright! If you didn't steal it, then I'll apologize. But if you did, then you have to move out of this youth cadre site. We don't welcome thieves!"

"Xiaoying!"

Luo Linlin grabbed her arm, trying to stop her from finishing her words. She didn't want these people to move out at all. She had lived in that room for a long time and it was not easy to get the chance to move out. If the house was vacant, those old educated youth would definitely let her move back.

Unfortunately, Tian Cuiying was not a worm in her stomach, so she had no idea what she was thinking. In just a few seconds, she and Tan Yuan clapped their hands and swore an oath.

"Linlin, don't worry. They must have stolen the fish. The Shuiwazi Brigade is so far away from us, how could we possibly give them the fish? I'll find the educated youth who were fishing tonight. Then they'll move out and you can move back in and live with us."

Tian Cuiying was so confident that she didn't even think about apologizing.

"By the way, Linlin, who told you this last night? Do you remember?"
