It was lunchtime, and Jiang Yun was so angry that she didn't eat lunch. She just lay stiffly on the kang (a heated brick bed), her face extremely pale. Thinking about the strange looks she received when she went to work in the fields that morning and the subtle stares from the other educated youths when she returned at noon, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Just as the educated youth were preparing for their lunch break, a loud, abusive voice suddenly came from outside:

"Jiang Yun, you little bitch, come out here and explain yourself. When did my son start dating you? You're not good enough for me."

After saying that, she started banging on the door. With such a loud noise, the other educated youths couldn't fall asleep. They all got up to see what was going on. Why did that voice sound like the brigade leader's wife?

Jiang Yun rushed out of the girls' dormitory immediately. She was filled with grief and indignation. She was already depressed because of this incident, and now Ye Dahua had come to her door to scold her. This made her want to kill someone.

As soon as Jiang Yun opened the door, she was slapped across the face. The force was so great that her head involuntarily tilted to one side, showing how angry the person who hit her was.

Without a doubt, the person who hit Jiang Yun was Ye Dahua, who had been shouting and cursing outside. Because she worked in the fields for many years, she had a strong grip, and Jiang Yun's face quickly became red and swollen.

Although Ye Dahua's anger subsided slightly after being slapped, it infuriated Jiang Yun. She had never suffered like this before. Overwhelmed with rage, she stepped forward to argue with Ye Dahua, but the two old friends who came with Ye Dahua were used to this kind of scene. They skillfully stepped forward and restrained Jiang Yun's hands, one on each side.

After Ye Dahua slapped him, her anger had subsided somewhat, but seeing the humiliated expression on Jiang Yun's face when he rushed over made her realize that this educated youth from the city might not even look down on her precious son. How could she tolerate that?

She could look down on others, but how could she tolerate her precious son being disliked? This really stirred up a hornet's nest. The more Ye Dahua thought about it, the angrier she became. Seeing that her two old friends had restrained the man, she couldn't help but step forward and slap Jiang Yun across the face with both hands.

He fanned and cursed at the same time.

"You damned whore, you slut, how dare you seduce my son! I'll beat you to death today!"

Just then, the other people in the educated youth compound came out. When they saw the explosive scene, they were stunned and startled. What was going on? In the middle of the day, they were causing trouble.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the brigade leader's wife had come to beat up Jiang Yun, an educated youth. The first to react was Jiang Yun's second brother, Jiang Hongwei. When he saw his sister being held down and slapped on both ears, he was so angry that his eyes turned red. He rushed out and kicked the two people holding Jiang Yun away with one foot on each side.

Then, he grabbed Ye Dahua, who was still slapping people, with both hands. Because she was the captain's wife, even in his rage, Jiang Hongwei did not kick her to the ground like he had done to the other two. He just shoved her backward. Ye Dahua stumbled back a few steps and saw that the person who came was one of Jiang Yun's two older brothers.

By this time, Ye Dahua had completely calmed down. Looking at Jiang Yun's cheeks, which were now so swollen they were unrecognizable, she knew that if she did something wrong in her anger, it might implicate her husband. With a quick thought, she used Jiang Hongwei's strength to fall to the ground and began to cry out incessantly, "Ouch, ouch!"

The two people who had come with Ye Dahua and were kicked to the ground, seeing the situation, understood perfectly well. They just lay there on the ground, refusing to get up, still shouting:

"Someone's being beaten! Someone's being beaten! The educated youth are beating someone!"

These women really knew how to play the "victim accusing first" game perfectly. The other educated youth were dumbfounded. These old ladies really knew how to play the game.

Jiang Hongwei was also at a loss when he saw this situation. He looked at his hand and realized that he hadn't used any force. How could Ye Dahua have fallen down? She was still too young and inexperienced, and didn't know the true meaning of staging an accident.

At this moment, Jiang Yun was the one who was suffering the most. First, she was framed, and then someone came to her door to beat her up. No matter how much Jiang Yun could endure, she couldn't swallow this insult. She felt that if she continued to endure it, she would explode on the spot.

She was panting heavily, signaling to her brother Jiang Hongwei to get ready, while her gaze at Ye Dahua seemed to devour her. Only then did Ye Dahua become a little scared, finding the female educated youth's eyes truly frightening. But then she remembered that her man was the brigade leader, and she raised her chin without any restraint, her proud rooster-like demeanor making Jiang Yun even angrier.

Jiang Yun gently touched her face. "Ouch!" It really hurt. The skin must have broken. Thinking of this, she lowered her head slightly, a cold light flashing in her eyes. If she didn't teach these people a lesson, she wouldn't be able to quell her anger. She felt like there was a fire burning in her chest. If she didn't do something, she was afraid she would suffocate herself.

She whispered a few words in her brother's ear. Jiang Hongwei looked at her hesitantly. Jiang Yun nodded solemnly. Jiang Hongwei had no choice but to do as his sister said. No matter how you looked at it, his sister had been wronged and suffered a great loss. If he didn't let her vent, he wouldn't be able to get over it.

He went inside to get his things and came out.

Jiang Yun looked at the row of educated youths standing under the porch. They had only watched her being beaten without showing any reaction; she simply glanced at them dismissively and said:

“This is between me and Aunt Ye. I hope you didn’t stand up for me when they hit me earlier, and please keep quiet now as well.”

The others were alright, but Qi Hongsheng looked at Jiang Yun with a face full of anxiety and said repeatedly:

"Comrade Jiang Yun, I came out late. Hongwei had already shaken them off when I came out, which is why I stood still."

Jiang Yun saw this clearly. She nodded, said nothing, and beckoned Qi Hongsheng over. She also whispered something to him. Seeing that she wasn't angry with him and even arranged for a helper to work for him, Qi Hongsheng was eager to perform and show Jiang Yun his abilities immediately.

And so, to the astonishment of the educated youth, Jiang Hongwei and Qi Hongsheng quickly tied the three men who were lying on the ground together with a rope. The three men didn't take it too seriously; seeing that Jiang Yun didn't retaliate on the spot, they thought the matter wouldn't have much of an impact.

The group of people pushed and shoved each other as they walked out, following Jiang Yun's instructions, with the other educated youth from the educated youth compound following behind, until they arrived at the cowshed not far away.

At this moment, not only the educated youth, but also Ye Dahua and her two companions were completely bewildered, wondering what tricks Jiang Yun was up to. However, no matter what she wanted to do, Ye Dahua was not afraid. In this Lanshan Brigade, Ye Dahua had never been afraid of anyone.

Just then, under Jiang Yun's command, Jiang Hongwei led the people to the cow dung pit. Upon seeing this, Ye Dahua and the others began to feel apprehensive, with a bad premonition.
