Reborn in 1965, I can obtain resources just by sweeping the floor.

Yue Manman ignored you, so you came here to steal Huang Lili from me, huh? I won't give you that chance.

After glancing at Zhang Jie, Cui Xiaowei gave him a smug look and then put the simple carrying pole on his own shoulder.

Shaking his head helplessly, Yang Dazhuang turned his face to the side, rested for a while, and then led the group to continue their journey.

With this simple carrying pole, everyone's speed increased significantly.

Bearing the burden of two people, Cui Xiaowei experienced both pain and joy. Whenever he felt he was about to give up, he would receive words of concern from Comrade Huang Lili.

What were just casual, perfunctory words to others sounded like a stimulant to Cui Xiaowei, instantly filling him with renewed energy.

Looking at the petite Yue Manman, who gritted her teeth and followed the crowd without a single complaint, Yang Dazhuang nodded secretly, thinking to himself, "She's a good comrade, much better than Huang Lili."

"How much longer until the village chief arrives? My legs are about to break."

Although everyone felt a bit tired, they gritted their teeth and didn't say anything. On the contrary, Huang Lili, who had no burden at all and had empty hands, kept complaining.

"Almost there! Almost there! Do you see that hill ahead? Just a little further on after we cross it, we'll be there."

Although he was very annoyed with Huang Lili, Yang Dazhuang still patiently explained.

Amid Huang Lili's constant complaints, and after several more rests, the group finally returned to Kaoshantun.

"This...! This is the place they prepared for us? It's so shabby, it's even worse than our outhouse."

When Yang Dazhuang led everyone to the educated youth settlement, Huang Lili curled her lips and said something with a look of disgust.

Huang Lili's words made Yang Dazhuang's face turn extremely ugly, and the others who came with her also stared at Huang Lili with unfriendly eyes.

"Please don't misunderstand, Comrade Huang Lili didn't mean any harm, she just said it casually."

Sensing everyone's anger, Cui Xiaowei immediately offered a few words of explanation on Huang Lili's behalf.

"I don't need your explanation, everything I said is true. If I had known this place was this run-down, I wouldn't have come here."

"Comrade Huang Lili, please say less. This is just how the conditions are in the countryside. We were mentally prepared before we went to the countryside. The conditions here are already quite good. I heard that some places only prepared simple shacks for the educated youth."

Yue Manman glanced at the few mud-brick houses at the educated youth settlement, then turned to Huang Lili and said something.

"Yue Manman, what do you mean? Do you think you're so noble, or are you just a country bumpkin who's never seen the world, look at your tattered clothes..."

Yue Manman's words were like a burning match, instantly igniting Huang Lili's anger.

"You must be the new educated youth. From now on, we'll all be living in the same courtyard. The men's rooms are on the east side, and the women's rooms are on the west side..."

Hearing the noise outside, Li Delin came out of the room and looked at everyone with a smile.

"Let me introduce you all. This is Comrade Li Delin, the leader of the educated youth team. He was the first to arrive in our Kaoshantun. If you have any issues, you can report them to him. Principal Li, I have to go now. These comrades are in your care."

Seeing Li Delin come out, Yang Dazhuang was secretly delighted and immediately pulled him in front of him, introducing him to everyone in a very solemn manner.

After finishing his introduction, Yang Dazhuang quickly left this place of trouble.

"Uh! Everyone, please come in. These rooms are unoccupied, so you can choose whichever you like."

Watching Yang Dazhuang leave in a hurry, Lin Delin shook his head speechlessly, then led everyone into the educated youth compound.

Seeing Huang Lili's unfriendly gaze, Yue Manman ignored her, picked up her luggage, and walked to the door of an empty room on the west side.

"Comrade Yue Manman, let's live together, so we can look after each other in the future."

The other two women exchanged glances, then carried their luggage to Yue Manman and said with smiles.

"Okay, let's tidy up the room."

Yue Manman was very happy to have someone to live with. The three of them chatted and laughed as they started cleaning the room, completely ignoring Huang Lili.

"You...you guys are bullying me! I don't even want to live in the same house as you, you bunch of bumpkins!"

Seeing the three of them chatting and laughing, Huang Lili felt extremely resentful and stomped her feet a few times before walking towards another empty room.

But when she opened the door and saw that she still needed to clean the room herself, she couldn't help but frown.

The house had just been renovated a while ago, and there was nothing inside except for a kang (a heated brick bed). In particular, the kang was covered with a layer of mud mixed with wheat straw, which she found unacceptable.

"Comrade Huang Lili, let me help you pack. You must be tired from the journey, so just rest here."

Cui Xiaowei once again transformed into Boiling Sheep, quickly starting to tidy up Huang Lili's room.

……

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Beijing, in a residential building in Courtyard No. 9, Bai Xiangying was holding a letter with a smile on her face.

Bai Xiangying carefully opened the envelope. At first, he had a bright smile on his face, but as he read further, his expression became increasingly grim. Finally, he slammed the letter on the table with a loud bang.

"Old Bai, what's wrong? Has something happened to our daughter? Tell me quickly!"

Seeing her husband's angry expression, Bai Xiangying's wife, Ye Yunjing, hurriedly walked over and looked at Bai Xiangying with a nervous expression.

"Look at yourself, our daughter is too naive and childish. That guy must have taken advantage of that to make her think he's a good person. He's just dreaming if he thinks he can use our Yao Yao to pull strings and get in through connections."

As they spoke, Bai Xiangying handed the letter to his wife.

As she received the letter from her husband and saw the familiar handwriting, Ye Yunjing felt a pang of sadness.

As Ye Yunjing read the letter her daughter had written to them, word by word, a look of suspicion appeared on her face.

"Old Bai, aren't you overthinking this? Maybe they are..."

"Look, even you can't find any other reason. What era are we living in? Who would generously share their food with others? I think he just wants to take advantage of his daughter's innocence and kindness to achieve his own goals."

"No, I'll go talk to Lao Feng right now and discuss getting the two kids transferred back. I originally wanted to wait a while before resolving this issue, but it seems we can't delay any longer."

After finishing her sentence, Bai Xiangying hurriedly left her home and headed straight for a small building not far away.

"Greetings, Commander. Commander Feng is resting. I'll go and wake him up. Please have a cup of tea first."

Upon arriving at Feng Chenghun's home, the guards immediately ushered Bai Xiangying into the living room.

"No need to trouble yourself, I can go up by myself."

Bai Xiangying, who was anxious at the moment, had no mood to drink tea. After speaking, she went straight upstairs.

"Old Feng, wake up! If you keep sleeping, something terrible will happen!"

Upon opening the door and seeing Feng Chengxun fast asleep with his head covered, Bai Xiangying walked over and yanked off Feng Chengxun's blanket.

"What's wrong, Lao Bai? What happened? Is the enemy trying to sabotage us?"
