Cuilan saw that Zhang Yang's face was not good, and the coldness and anger in his eyes made it seem as if he might turn into a ferocious beast and charge out at any moment!

She thought, Zhang Yang is still young, what if he does something impulsive and can't be contained?

So he quickly persuaded her, "Yangzi! Don't worry! How about I go to the educated youth team again and bring Teacher Lin to my home?"

But Zhang Yang shook his head.

"Thank you for your kindness, Sister Cuilan, but if you go a second time, it might arouse the suspicion of some petty people."

He thought to himself: If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back again when the spring equinox comes!

If we want to get rid of the troublemakers in the team, we'll have to take some drastic measures!

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Sister-in-law Cuilan, I have an idea, but I might need your help."

……

Today is a big day for the official confirmation of the new members of the Zhangjiatun militia team!

Shen Yiming's name was prominently listed among the new members.

Zhang Simao was specially assigned to the clinic to deliver messages and pork to Shen Yiming.

"The squad leader is such a good person. He gave each new member three catties of wild boar meat."

The young people from the educated youth team who were accompanying Shen Yiming at his hospital bedside were all happy for him.

"You're the only one selected from our educated youth team! You're now a regular member of the militia squad!"

"Including those two brothers from Gaojiatun, there are only ten people in the whole team. You are one-tenth of the pride!"

Shen Yiming himself was also very excited!

However, since his legs were still not convenient for him to walk, he could only look at Zhang Simao and ask him to express his gratitude to Zhang Yang on his behalf.

On another hospital bed not far away, Qian Xiuju was lying.

Despite a day and a night of treatment and care, Qian Xiuju still showed no signs of waking up.

Sun Hongying was by Qian Xiuju's bedside.

The group of lads from Zhangjiatun all knew Qian Weiguo, but few had ever seen Sun Hongying.

Furthermore, at this moment, they were so focused on the joyous news of the pork distribution that they paid even less attention to Sun Hongying.

But Sun Hongying is neither deaf nor blind.

She saw the fat, red wild boar meat and her mouth watered!

She's heard quite a few things at the clinic these past few days!

The first thing is about her sister-in-law, Qian Chunfen, getting 100 yuan.

Sun Hongying had previously learned that Wang Jie had gone to the Zhang family to demand alimony for the three years he had raised Zhang Yan.

But she felt that this was unfounded.

Who isn't poor these days?

Who can come up with 88 yuan in a month?

She was discussing it with several women from Wulipu at the time, saying that Wang Jie was really bold! He asked for eighty-eight!

Given the Zhang family's situation, having fallen so low as to sell their daughter, let alone pull out eighty-eight yuan...

Even pulling out eight dollars would be difficult!

Unexpectedly, less than a month after the discussion, Wang Jie actually got a full ten yuan.

But then again, if Wang Jie had gotten the money on his own merits, that would be one thing!

The Wang family made trouble under the pretense of raising money for Qian Xiuju's medical expenses!

This made Sun Hongying very unhappy.

They said they needed the money to treat her daughter's illness, which is why they were pressing for payment.

But Wang Jie received the money and never even came to the clinic!

He never even considered visiting his cousin, Qian Xiuju!

Sun Hongying was extremely frustrated!

But her daughter needed someone by her side, and she couldn't very well go to the Wang family to demand an explanation right away, so she just endured it.

Unexpectedly, less than a day later, people in Zhangjiatun were seen distributing pork.

She immediately thought: Maybe Qian Chunfen got some benefits from the two times he caused trouble with people before!

They were just afraid of having to share the profits with Qian Weiguo's family, which is why they kept it a secret!

But since Qian Chunfen and Qian Weiguo both share the surname Qian, how can they let Qian Chunfen's family take all the advantages?!

Sun Hongying became increasingly indignant. Finally, a fellow villager from Wulipu came to visit, so she asked someone to deliver a message home to Qian Weiguo, telling him to go to Qian Chun's family to demand an explanation.

We must give an explanation!

……

It wasn't even dark yet when a small disturbance occurred in Wulipu.

Outsiders only heard that not long after Qian Weiguo went to Qian Chunfen's house, Qian Chunfen began to threaten suicide, crying and saying that life was too hard and he couldn't go on.

But that night, Qian Weiguo did not go home; instead, he stayed at Wang Jie's house.

I don't know what the two families discussed, or how the discussion went.

The words are divided into two parts.

That same night, during dinner time, the educated youth team was incredibly lively!

These educated youths, who hadn't seen meat for almost two months, were as happy as if it were New Year's Day!

They even took out their stored sorghum liquor to drink, and when they raised their glasses in celebration, they all said, "Thank you, Yiming!"

"This leg injury wasn't in vain!"

"One person's hard work brings benefits to the entire educated youth team!"

"Yiming has rendered meritorious service! A great achievement!"

Amidst the clinking of glasses and lively conversation, a male educated youth suddenly slapped his forehead and hurriedly went to find **.

He then pulled a crumpled envelope from his pocket and handed it to him.

“A fellow villager gave it to me when I came back from the clinic today and asked me to give it to you. But I was so happy about the pork that I almost forgot.”

He looked rosy-cheeked from drinking.

He didn't think much of it when he received the letter, only casually asking, "Didn't it say who sent it to me?"

Male educated youth: "They didn't say anything, but the villagers said that you would know when you read the letter."

I felt something was off, but I didn't pay much attention to it and immediately opened the letter to read it.

"Little Ma, are you free tonight? Let's meet in the courtyard."

The letter contained only eight crookedly written characters.

It was neither signed nor dated.

But he seemed to understand something in his heart and was overjoyed.

The yellowed paper and childish handwriting clearly indicate that this was not written by someone with a high level of education.

However, these characters are written very small and delicately, and are mostly written by women.

Looking across the entire village, there are very few women who call him Little Ma and have a courtyard at home.

After thinking for a moment, I instantly decided on Sister Cuilan!

"This restless woman has finally given in..." he chuckled inwardly.

While feeling smug, his eyes still darted around the table.

Although it was lively tonight, Lin Qiushui was not among them.

She said she was in a hurry to write a self-criticism, so she only took a bowl of soup with a few slices of meat and left.

Just thinking about Lin Qiushui's cold and stern look makes me angry.

What is Lin Qiushui being arrogant about?

He was universally loved; wherever he went, women would vie to get close to him!

Lin Qiushui is so ungrateful!

But it doesn't matter. Even if Lin Qiushui doesn't know its value, there will always be someone who does.

And so, the sensible Sister Xiulan came to our door.

He put on his big cotton-padded coat and then strode off to the village.

A young man called out to him, "Hey! Where have you been so late?"

"I drank a bit too much and felt dizzy and short of breath, so I'm going for a walk around the neighborhood! I'll also patrol the village to keep out any wild animals and protect my fellow villagers."

Laughter came from behind me.

"Zhangjiatun already has a militia squad, why would they need you to patrol and protect them?"

I wanted to curse as soon as I heard that.
