So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!

The villagers considered the job of a scorekeeper a lucrative one; it was easy, and one could easily earn a full day's work points. The position had been vacant for a long time, and everyone was eagerly waiting for it.

As soon as the village secretary finished announcing the arrangements, the crowd erupted in a commotion. A few villagers were about to show their dissatisfaction when the village secretary immediately raised his voice and began to explain: "Although Comrade Ding Xianli suffers from heart disease, she disregarded her own pain and actively responded to the call to come to the countryside to build our country. She came with full enthusiasm and selfless dedication. Just for this intention and spirit, we should take good care of her."

After he finished speaking, the crowd fell silent for a moment. Those villagers who had initially had some thoughts, after hearing the village secretary's words and seeing the reactions of those around them, all fell silent.

Everyone knew that if this job were given to anyone else, it would cause a huge uproar. Giving it to Canglan was the most suitable option; who would want to compete with someone who is physically weak but so dedicated? That would just invite criticism and gossip.

Meanwhile, Li Die, standing to the side, had a sinister glint in her eyes, secretly hoping the villagers would take the opportunity to teach Cang Lan a lesson. However, to her surprise, the villagers were immediately intimidated by the village secretary, and the crowd dispersed like the receding tide, each going about their own business.

On the other side, Ding Hui was sitting on an oxcart heading to Lijia Village, enduring a bumpy ride. The oxcart swayed and wobbled along, the road beneath its wheels full of potholes, and with each jolt, Ding Hui felt as if her internal organs were about to be shaken out.

Her brows furrowed, her face full of disgust, and her lips pursed so much they could hang an oil bottle: "What kind of lousy road is this? This oxcart is so uncomfortable, it's almost shaken me to pieces. This godforsaken place is no place for a human to live."

Village chief Li Guozheng sat to the side, glanced at her with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and said, "Comrade Ding Hui, when the last batch of educated youth came, they didn't even have a ride in an oxcart. They all walked, and it took them four whole hours to get to the village. If you're unhappy about it, then get off and walk. Don't complain here."

Li Guozheng's tone was somewhat serious. As the village head, he would not easily show mercy to anyone, and he was quite disgusted with this spoiled educated youth.

Ding Hui pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "That's them, not me. I'm not that stupid. She wouldn't go through that kind of hardship walking for four hours. These people are just dumb..."

Li Guozheng immediately felt that Ding Hui was an ungrateful person, and his impression of her worsened along the way.

When they finally arrived at the educated youth settlement, Li Guozheng saw Ding Hui's spoiled appearance and assumed she would definitely rent a room. He immediately asked, "The educated youth compound might be crowded. When the female educated youth return, if you feel you can't fit, you can rent a house in the village for one yuan a month..."

Ding Hui refused without even thinking. Her eyes darted around, and she thought to herself: Why spend money when there's nothing to do if it's free? She immediately replied, "No need." She didn't want to waste her money. Although she felt that the conditions at the educated youth home might not be good, she figured she could save money where she could. How bad could it be?

Li Guozheng sneered inwardly, looking down on Ding Hui even more. She had been complaining about this and that all the way, and he thought she was a rich person, but she didn't rent a place. He was probably just another pretentious woman with no money in her pocket.

Then, the two saw a group of people walking towards them from not far away.

Li Bao'er's weak voice came through as she pounded her legs with her hands: "My legs don't feel like mine anymore, they don't even feel like they're part of my body. My waist feels like it's broken too. I wish I could sleep for three days and three nights!"

Jin Jiajia also looked exhausted. "Yeah, I don't know how I got through the day. This work is so tiring, I feel like my whole body is falling apart."

Li Die couldn't help but join in, looking at her slender hands covered in blisters, she said with heartache, "It's only the first day, and my hands are covered in blisters. What am I going to do tomorrow? Can I ask for a day off?"

Everyone chimed in with their own complaints. They helped each other along, making their way to the youth compound step by step. This was the first time the youth compound had been so united. Even Li Die, who was usually a troublemaker, had joined the group. At this moment, they were all worn down by the heavy labor and had lost their temper.

Li Guozheng looked at them and said, "This is Ding Hui, the new educated youth. I have to go now." After saying that, he quickly turned and left. Anyone with eyes could see that he disliked Ding Hui, as if he were avoiding a plague.

The educated youth were too exhausted. They only glanced weakly at Ding Hui before continuing to walk into the courtyard. The older educated youth forced themselves to cheer up and gave Ding Hui a brief greeting and exchanged a few words of pleasantries, their voices weak and feeble.

Ding Hui spotted Ding Xianli in the crowd at a glance. Instantly, her face turned ugly. Thinking about how she had been sent to the countryside, she was furious. She gritted her teeth and her heart was filled with resentment.

She was about to call out to Ding Xianli when she saw that Ding Xianli acted as if she hadn't seen her and turned straight into another courtyard.

She asked the old educated youth next to her, "Why is she able to live there alone?" Her tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction and jealousy.

The older educated youth replied, "She rented that house for one yuan a month. She's very comfortable living there by herself."

A hint of jealousy flashed in Ding Hui's eyes, mixed with deep hatred.

'That bitch Ding Xianli sold her house and her hospital job; she must have gotten a lot of money. She deserves a share of that money. I can't let that bitch get away with this. These people definitely don't know her true colors. I must expose her and show everyone how selfish and despicable she is.'

Thinking about it, Ding Hui walked towards the entrance of the courtyard where Cang Lan lived and began to shout loudly: "Ding Xianli, you shameless bastard, come out here right now! You secretly sold the house and your job behind our parents' backs. Do you have any conscience? You took the money and ran here to enjoy your life. Your parents have been ruined by you. How can you be so heartless? You will be punished for what you did."

Her voice echoed in the educated youth compound, instantly attracting the attention of the surrounding villagers. The people in the female educated youth compound, seeing that there was gossip, no longer felt tired.

Seeing this, Li Die stared intently at Ding Hui's face and blurted out, "She's your sister? Then why do you look like this?"

The moment she said those words, the air around her seemed to freeze for a moment.

Ding Hui's face flushed red, and she asked angrily, "What do you mean? What's it to you?!"

Li Die said nonchalantly, "I didn't mean anything by it. Is it wrong to ask? Apart from sharing the same surname, Ding, you two are completely different."

Ding Hui was trembling with anger and shouted, "Stop being sarcastic! What I do is none of your business! If you keep meddling, do you believe I'll tear your mouth apart?"

Li Die retorted without backing down, "Tch, I'm just stating the facts. You two look completely unrelated!"
