However, Yueyao's temper isn't great either.

Look how quickly Yu Zhiqing's attitude changed, she said sarcastically, "So since Yu Zhiqing knew I was unhappy, why did she come here looking for a scolding?"

Looking at the woman's unbelievably beautiful face, Yu Xiaowen felt a little resentful. She had heard about this Lin Zhiqing on her very first day in Chenjia Village.

Everyone in the village praised her to the skies, especially when compared to the later educated youth. They practically lauded Lin Yueyao to the skies.

Lin, the educated youth, came to Chenjia Village earlier, so she spent more time with the villagers and was more liked by the older women in the village.

In the eyes of the commune members, although Lin Zhiqing was a bit weak and couldn't do much physical labor.

But they are patient with children and are dedicated to teaching them to read and write.

The children in their village had all been taught by Lin Zhiqing to some extent, so there was some affection between them.

Yu Xiaowen looked up at Yueyao, her displeasure almost overflowing. She couldn't stand Lin Yueyao and couldn't bear to see her being praised while stepping on the backs of them, the newcomers.

So her voice carried a hint of sarcasm, "Sister Lin, you don't think I'm here to see you, do you? You've already said this house isn't yours, so what use would I be to you?"

His words were practically overflowing with resentment towards Yueyao.

Yu Xiaowen was praised by her neighbors for being beautiful and lucky since she was a child, so her little mouth was as sweet as honey.

But when she arrived in the countryside, the villagers, upon seeing her, immediately said she couldn't compare to that educated youth, Lin. Yu Xiaowen, spoiled by her family since childhood, had a terrible temper; how could she accept that?

And so, ever since she arrived in the village, she's been openly and secretly competing with this man.

But after all her efforts, Lin Yueyao didn't take her seriously at all, which infuriated Yu Xiaowen, making her feel like a complete clown.

Especially after hearing that this educated youth, Lin, was transferred to the county town.

While she was still stuck in the countryside, toiling in the fields every day, Lin, a sent-down youth, was doing the easiest job as a teacher and even had the chance to escape the countryside. Yu Xiaowen was furious.

Yueyao had no idea about her complicated thoughts, but she didn't indulge her little temper. "What's wrong? Did you come here specifically to get scolded? Or did you come here to make me unhappy?"

After saying that, Yueyao rolled her eyes. "Since you didn't come here to see me, then get the hell out of here. Don't get in my way. You're such a nuisance. I give you a nice look and you don't appreciate it. You're just asking for trouble."

After Yueyao finished cursing, she was about to continue tidying up when she heard another noise at the door. She thought it was one of the educated youth, but then she heard someone shout.

"Lin Zhiqing, have you packed your things? I'm bringing my tractor over to load them up."

The one who shouted was the village's tractor driver. Ever since Chen Qishan gained a voice, he had gotten a tractor for the village.

"Oh, it's Daquan! I'll be done packing right away. I'll need you to come in and help me move some things."

"It's alright, Lin Zhiqing, just tell me what you want me to move, I have plenty of strength."

This Lin Zhiqing was someone the village chief had instructed him to take care of, so he dared not let her do heavy work.

When Lin Yueyao heard him say that, she really didn't hold back. Like a commander, she made him move this and that, and before long, everything was loaded onto the truck.

As for the other woman who was originally in the house, she had already made a hasty escape.

Now that Yu Xiaowen knows she has no hope of living in this house, why waste time with Lin Yueyao?

When Yueyao arrived at the family compound, Chen Qishan had already prepared a meal and was waiting for her inside.

The neighbors were all very curious when they saw that the largest house had been empty for so long and someone had finally moved in.

Especially the family of Officer Li from the Ministry of Finance next door; their family lives right next to Yueyao's, and there are about ten people in total.

Previously, Officer Li's wife applied to the logistics department, but they all said that her husband's rank was not high enough and he was not worthy of living in such a big house.

No matter how much Officer Li's wife acted unreasonably and threw a tantrum, the logistics department refused to make an exception.

Later, it was Officer Li who stepped in to mediate and persuaded his wife to go back home.

This Officer Li is quite adept at handling people; he quickly persuaded his wife to go back home, winning him the favor of many.

There was nothing else she could do, so Officer Li's wife finally had to shut up.

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that this Officer Li is over 40 years old and still a junior officer, so they know his limitations.

He could only act tough at home. His wife made a fuss several times, but he didn't say a word. He just wanted to reap the benefits from behind the scenes.

He only stepped in to play the good guy after realizing that no matter how much his wife made a fuss, it was no use, and the logistics department simply wouldn't budge.

So none of the Li family members welcomed the people who moved in next door, but what could they do if they didn't welcome them? They had no say in the matter.

Just then, the eldest daughter of the Li family saw Yueyao swaggering in, and the man who had moved in earlier personally went to greet her.

Li Daya couldn't stand it. Looking at Yueyao's outstanding appearance, she whispered cautiously, "This new neighbor is dressed so flamboyantly, she must not be a well-behaved person."

There were two or three middle-aged women in the courtyard next to Li Daya. The woman next to her heard her muttering and quickly came over.

Curious, she asked, "Li family's eldest daughter, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly, could you say it again?"

Looking at Aunt Yu, the most lively person in the courtyard, Li Daya said with a grin, "It's nothing, I just think the new sister is very pretty!"

Aunt Yu nodded. "Of course! Not only is she beautiful, but I heard she's a college graduate, and the husband she married is incredibly successful. Do you know who she married?"

At this point, she asked Li Daya mysteriously.

Li Daya's curiosity was piqued by Aunt Yu, and she quickly asked, "Who is it? Is it famous?"

Aunt Yu proudly raised her chin, "I had a lot of trouble finding out about this. If the man who moved in early didn't have some ability, would I have gone to such lengths to find out?"

Hearing Aunt Yu showing off again, Li Daya couldn't help but let her mind wander. She muttered to herself, "Tch, if someone comes to the compound, it's no wonder you're asking about them."

Seeing that Li Daya's mind was wandering again while she was talking to her, Aunt Yu lost interest in talking to her.

She perked up immediately when the people around her became curious, and turned to talk to them.

"Let me tell you, the man who just moved into this house works there. I heard he's some kind of director, basically in charge of our county..."

Aunt Yu rattled off a whole bunch of things.

Those nearby could tell from his conversation that the newcomer also had connections.

However, some people still wondered, "Huh? Really? Then why did he move to our courtyard? Shouldn't he have gone to the big courtyard next door? Those are where people of high status and position live."

Aunt Yu didn't know either. "Who knows? Maybe they ran out of rooms in that courtyard and just happened to have a big house in our courtyard, so they moved over."
