Reborn in a virtual world, before the house was taken away

Chapter 11 On the Road to the Countryside

Qi Hongsheng was the first to speak. He felt deeply sorry for Zhuang Shan's previous remarks and had been trying to find an opportunity to resume conversations with Jiang Yun and his siblings. However, Zhuang Shan's expression was too obvious, and no matter how much they liked Qi Hongsheng, they had no desire to talk to him.

However, Jiang Yun is Jiang Yun after all. She has a clear understanding of anyone or anything that can help her. From the moment they met, she knew that she had to befriend Qi Hongsheng, as it would be useful to her in the future.

She could sense Qi Hongsheng's affection for her from his words and actions. Sure enough, before noon, the two sides restored diplomatic relations. However, as if they had planned it, Jiang Yun and the other two only talked to Qi Hongsheng and ignored Zhuang Shan, which made Zhuang Shan furious but to no avail.

The group shared their lunch, and when Zhuang Shan saw that they were eating steamed buns made from two kinds of flour, she immediately looked at them with disdain.

During the meal, only Jiang Yun nudged Feng Qingqing to indicate it was time to eat lunch, but Feng Qingqing simply shook her head slightly, indicating she wasn't hungry. Jiang Hongjun, standing nearby, muttered something to himself.

"You're so kind. Why are you paying attention to her? Ever since she got on the bus, look at her like she thinks we owe her something. She's really ungrateful."

After he finished speaking, Jiang Yun slowly added:

"That's just Qingqing's personality. Don't take it to heart. After all, her uncle and aunt are gone, so it's understandable that she's in a bad mood."

Sitting next to her, Feng Qingqing knew that Jiang Yun was deliberately telling everyone that she was an orphan. Jiang Yun subconsciously wanted to make things difficult for her.

If it were her past life, she would definitely feel ashamed and inferior, and become even more timid and cowardly. But as for her now, hmph.

And so, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the Jiang siblings and Qi Hongsheng separated Feng Qingqing.

Qi Hongsheng hadn't said a word to Feng Qingqing since getting on the bus; his mind was entirely on Jiang Yun, which even made Zhuang Shan a little jealous.

Feng Qingqing scoffed when she saw this. It seems that even if you drag a cow to Beijing, it's still a cow; enemies from the past life will remain enemies in this life.

They arrived at the station after a bumpy journey. It was almost dark when they arrived, but there were still people from the educated youth office at the train station to greet them. In addition to the six of them, there were seven other people on the train, four men and three women.

Once everyone had arrived, they were taken to the nearest guesthouse, two people to a room, which was quite nice.

There was an incident when they were sharing a room. Zhuang Shan didn't want to share a room with other unfamiliar women. Although she didn't like Jiang Yun, they were at least acquaintances who had traveled all the way here. She insisted on sharing a room with her, which made Jiang Yun deliberately look at Feng Qingqing with a troubled expression.

Feng Qingqing turned to the staff of the educated youth office with a nonchalant expression and said:

"Could you please help me arrange a room? I will completely obey any arrangements made by you."

The clerk in the educated youth office looked at Feng Qingqing with an appreciative eye and made the arrangements in no time.

Feng Qingqing was assigned to share a room with another girl named Hu Fangming. This girl probably came from a well-off family and had a very simple personality. After entering the room, she kept chattering away.

At first, Feng Qingqing ignored him, but later she could say a few words like "um" and "ah". At the same time, she thought to herself, "She can talk too much. Doesn't her mouth get tired? If anyone shares a room with her in the future, their ears will suffer."

Little did anyone know that his words would later become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The group got up early the next morning. There was a state-run restaurant next to the guesthouse. They ate something casually and then returned to the guesthouse to wait for the people from the educated youth office to make arrangements.

Their final destination was Yunlan County, which is under Qing City. The difference was that the six of them went to Lanshan Brigade under Yunlan County, while the other seven, except for Hu Fangming who shared a room with Feng Qingqing, also went to Lanshan Brigade. Feng Qingqing did not know the brigades of the other six so far.

After a bumpy ride, we arrived at Huyang Commune. It was almost noon when we got there. When we stopped the car in front of the educated youth office, we saw several oxcart drivers waiting there.

The group of seven walked up to a burly man called the Blue Mountain Brigade. The man was the brigade leader, with dark skin, about 40 years old, of average build, and a serious expression. He looked like someone who rarely smiled.

Besides the seven of them, there was another young man named Lin Feng who was also assigned to the Lanshan Brigade. Seeing so many educated youths, the brigade leader, Xiong Tianhua, was so angry that his eyebrows could have caught a fly.

With so many educated youth coming, how to feed them was a question he, as the brigade leader, couldn't ignore.

After gathering everyone, Captain Xiong gave them an hour to eat and buy some daily necessities at a nearby supply and marketing cooperative. Then he squatted down and smoked his pipe.

After discussing it, Jiang Yun and his group decided to have a meal at a state-run restaurant first, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some useful items.

Since boarding the train, Jiang Yun had clearly sensed that Feng Qingqing was distancing herself from them. Of course, this was also Feng Qingqing's intention. After all, she was going to the countryside with them, and going to the countryside together was not to put on a show of brotherly and sisterly affection.

Feng Qingqing still didn't join them. She stood on the commune street she had visited countless times in her past life, a place she had also visited countless times in spirit form with her man, and the place where he finally returned. For a moment, she didn't know whether to be happy that she would soon be reunited with him, or to be saddened by the ending of her past life.

While she was still in a daze, Hu Fangming grabbed her arm and started running. Although the girl was simple-minded, she was not stupid. She could tell that Feng Qingqing and her cousins ​​did not get along well. Since she liked Feng Qingqing quite a bit, she decided to go with the girl so that she would have someone she knew when she went to the countryside and wouldn't be alone.

I dragged her along to the state-run restaurant, afraid that if we arrived late, all the good food would be gone.

When they finally arrived at the restaurant, there was already a long queue. The little girl sighed and reluctantly joined the queue.

It was twenty minutes later when the two of them finally got to eat the steaming hot shredded pork noodles, but the delicious noodles made the long wait worthwhile.

After finishing their meal, the two girls walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative while rubbing their stomachs.

Thinking of her luggage, Feng Qingqing said to Hu Fangming:

"Go to the supply and marketing cooperative and wait for me for a while. See if there's anything good there. I'll pick up a package and come right back."

Before she could say anything more, he ran off.

Hu Fangming was about to ask, "Do you know where the post office is?" when he saw that Feng Qingqing had already run far away. He waved his hand and didn't say anything. The commune was only so big. He could easily ask and not get lost.

After thinking it over, he asked the people next to him and then rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Feng Qingqing ran a short distance, looked back, and found that Hu Fangming had already gone far away. She quickly found a secluded corner, took a deep breath, rested for about ten minutes, and then took out the large bundle that she had prepared in advance from her space.

Feng Qingqing packed the bundle neatly, but because there were so many things in it, it still looked particularly large.

Fortunately, Feng Qingqing was quite strong and was able to lift it.

She arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative at a leisurely pace. When she got to the door, she saw someone running towards her from afar. Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Hu Fangming. She stared in astonishment at Feng Qingqing carrying such a large bundle, her mouth agape.

"Are you so surprised? It's just a big bag. How are you? Did you buy everything?"

Not wanting to attract attention, Feng Qingqing changed the subject, even though her package was indeed a bit too big.

"I didn't buy much. There aren't many things here. Would you like to come in and take a look?"

Feng Qingqing was very familiar with the things in this supply and marketing cooperative from her previous life, so she never thought of going in. She shook her head and said:

"That's enough for today. We can buy whatever we need later. Let's go."

When they arrived at Captain Xiong's oxcart, the others had not yet returned.

They saw Captain Xiong sitting alone on a rock nearby, dozing off. He didn't say anything when he saw them return, and continued to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.

Feng Qingqing and the other woman didn't say anything. They put their luggage on the oxcart and went to sit down on the big rock on the other side to rest.

Feng Qingqing looked at Captain Xiong, who was pretending to be asleep with his eyes closed, and thought about Captain Xiong from her past life. Xiong Tianhua wasn't a bad person; he was fairly honest and had been the brigade leader for five or six years, and he had been quite conscientious.

As the brigade leader, her family was relatively wealthy in Lanshan Brigade. However, in her previous life, in her soul state, she saw the Xiong family, led by Xiong Tianhua's youngest son, Xiong Baoguo, becoming well-known entrepreneurs and tycoons.

All of this is also related to Jiang Yun.

Yes, in his previous life, Xiong Baoguo, the youngest son of Captain Xiong, was also Jiang Yun's sycophant.

At that time, a few months after Feng Qingqing went to the countryside, Jiang Yun was worried about her every move there. So, under the guise of caring for her sister, she took the initiative to visit Feng Qingqing. At the same time, because she needed to know Feng Qingqing's movements after she returned to the city, she consciously developed several informants to keep an eye on Feng Qingqing's actions and report to her by phone and letter.

Jiang Baoguo, being the youngest son of the brigade leader, was favored and very clever, so Jiang Yun paid special attention to him, and the two eventually got in touch.
