The Red Era: Starting from Being an Educated Youth in the Countryside

Chapter 76 Comrade Xiaolin, you must have been waiting for me!
After an afternoon, the work on the dam was completed.

The weather was getting colder and the night was getting darker, so the team members packed up their tools and hurried home.

As for Liu Jun, he had to accept the punishment for doing something wrong. No one paid any attention to him and he was just locked up. As for the final punishment result, it would be decided when the captain was free.

It's bearable during the day, but when the temperature drops sharply at night, it's really unbearable.

Liu Jun was shivering from the cold, and he was still tied up. He wanted to break free but couldn't. He was so angry that he started shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Is there anyone outside? Let me out immediately. I'm hungry and cold here. If someone freezes to death, who among you will be held responsible?"

"The hidden danger has not happened. Why are you locking me up? You are locking me up for no reason. I can report you to the educated youth center in town."

"Aren't you just being ungrateful? You smoke Chen Huaiyang's cigarettes and get benefits from him, so you are united with him. If he doesn't let you touch anything, would you be willing to flatter him?"

"What ability does he have? Isn't it just a couple of filthy riches? If his family wasn't well-off, would he use his wealth to flatter you?"

"He's so lazy and acts so superior. Who would pamper him?"

"I just wanted to punish him, but what a pity! I almost succeeded but failed at the last moment, and he escaped."

No one paid any attention to him no matter how loud he shouted. If he did something wrong, he had to accept the punishment. Wrong is wrong, and it cannot be erased before any hidden danger occurs.

After all, Chen Huaiyang was the leader, so he went over to take a look. He heard loud shouting outside the door and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.

He opened the door and threw a few bales of hay inside, looking at him as if he was a stray dog.

"Stop shouting! No one will pay attention to you even if you scream your throat out! The team members have worked an extra half day for no reason and are already holding their breath!"

"Not to mention letting you go, they really want to run over and step on you, just to vent their anger!"

"You can just say you don't like me, but why do you have to do this? Isn't this digging your own grave?"

"I have money, and I am happy to give benefits to the team members. That is my business, and it is none of your business!"

"You still haven't reflected on yourself and realized your mistakes. You are really hopeless."

"The dam is built to prevent floods. This is our job as a disaster prevention team. We will redo the work on your corner this afternoon. You know exactly how much you did."

"Do you think that things that didn't happen can't be executed? Where do you think this place is? The emperor is far away, and the captain has the final say."

“You are ignorant of what will happen if a flood occurs, but you cannot ignore the consequences.”

"You are an educated youth. Isn't it easy for the captain to do something to you? If he can discredit your academic record, you will not have any chance to study in the future."

"This punishment will send you to hell from which there will be no return. You will stay in this remote place for the rest of your life, without even the chance to leave."

"Do you think this kind of punishment is enough to offset the mistakes you made?"

After hearing this, Liu Jun panicked instantly.

"I was just distracted for a moment. Nothing happened. You can't just smear me if you want. You can't act so recklessly. The captain won't let you do whatever you want."

Chen Huaiyang smiled, "Then you just wait and see if I can deal you a heavy blow! See if the captain listens to me or you. I'll make you a street rat and everyone will shout and beat you. You can slowly taste the feeling."

"What's worse, I don't even need to do this. I can just let you work for two months to make up for it. If you don't get work points, you'll work in vain, and if you don't have food, you'll starve."

"You know the feeling of being hungry, right? Your stomach growls and feels empty, and it's so uncomfortable that you can't even scratch your head to find a solution."

"Don't think you can keep jumping around. I didn't want to bother with you earlier. It's obvious that you haven't learned your lesson. You can't blame anyone else. This is your own fault."

"Just stay here and endure it! It's freezing cold and you're hungry. I brought you some hay. At least you won't freeze to death if you stay in it at night."

"As for when to punish you, it depends on when the captain is free. You won't die of starvation if you starve for a day or two. Don't worry, I will come before you starve to death."

Chen Huaiyang uttered a series of provocative words, locked the door and left.

Just let him stay in there!
The inner condemnation is really tormenting when you are hungry!
Chen Huaiyang returned to the educated youth camp. After eating and drinking, he took the prepared wine and roasted peanuts and said to Yang Xiaolin, "I'm going to have a drink with Lao Zhong. He has helped me a lot during this period."

Yang Xiaolin warned, "Don't drink too much."

Chen Huaiyang raised the bottle of wine, "With this little amount, do you think I can get drunk? Uncle Zhong protects me like a treasure, he won't let me drink like a cow."

Then he came close to her, staring at her with burning eyes, "Boil some water for me to give me a bath tonight!"

Yang Xiaolin scolded him, "You are getting more and more skilled in ordering me around now?"

Chen Huaiyang raised his hand and grabbed her hand and played with it. If such a soft and boneless hand could hold his lifeline, that would definitely be a very exciting feeling.

"I was afraid that you might get choked up by the fumes. I've been so busy lately that I haven't even had a good shower!"

As he said this, he let go of the things in his hands, put his arm around the person and stood by the door, avoiding the sight from outside.

He placed his hand on her chin and lifted it slightly, then leaned forward to cover those suggestive lips.

Yang Xiaolin's whole body was stiff, and she kept looking at the door in fear, afraid that the man with glasses would suddenly run in. Seeing this scene, he would be ashamed and embarrassed.

Chen Huaiyang was not happy with her distraction and raised his hand to cover her eyes. "Don't worry, you can concentrate on it. Didn't you hear the snoring? He has already eaten and drunk enough and gone to sleep."

"That's why I don't want the old educated youth to come and disturb us. I don't want to see them standing between us and getting in the way."

"No one is in the way, we can hug each other if we want, but they are standing in here, which makes it inconvenient for us to do anything."

As he spoke, he put his hand on the back of her neck again, "I haven't been affectionate with you in a few days. Let me be kind to you for a while."

The two of them were so sticky that they both wanted to get closer to each other, and they forgot themselves and kissed each other again.

Yang Xiaolin was immersed in it. She raised her hands and hugged his neck, completely forgetting the environment she was in. She just leaned in his arms and let him do whatever he wanted.

When Chen Huaiyang let her go, he avoided her thick cotton coat and put his arms around her slender waist, "Xiaolin, educated youth, I want to eat a peach." There was a hint of resentment in his tone.

After hearing this, Yang Xiaolin blushed and raised her hand to pat him, "Didn't you say you were going to Lao Zhong's place? Hurry up and go. If you delay any longer, he will be eating and lying on the bed!"

When Chen Huaiyang heard the reminder, he said, "Tsk, you really know how to ruin the atmosphere?" The charming atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant.

"Don't forget to boil some hot water for me, so I can come back and smell good and coax you to sleep. If you don't boil some water for me, I'll stink and then I'll fumigate you."

Yang Xiaolin nodded, "Hurry up, don't get drunk, otherwise I won't bother to pay attention to you." Chen Huaiyang agreed without hesitation, "Listen to my woman, I have no objection."

Yang Xiaolin scolded him, "Who is your woman? You are so outspoken."

Chen Huaiyang responded with a smile that made him laugh out loud, "Comrade Yang Xiaolin! We are in a relationship where we kiss and hug each other, so if she's not my wife, then who else could she be?"

"As long as you stay by my side, you are mine. As for the future, who can guarantee it?"

If he wants to tie someone up, will he still be able to escape?
He leaned over and pecked her lips again before letting go. "Don't lock the door at night. If you knock on the door and wake someone up, don't blame me for not reminding you."

I raised my hand and pinched her cheek. She had gained some flesh, but it was still not as big as when I first came.

But it's still pink and makes people want to take a bite.

Yang Xiaolin met his gaze. This guy would always take advantage of her whenever he got the chance. He would never let go of even the slightest opportunity!
When Chen Huaiyang left, Yang Xiaolin cleaned herself up from head to toe, showing with practical actions that she was still very eager for Chen Huaiyang's arrival.

When I thought about what was going to happen, my face turned red again.

On the other side, Chen Huaiyang went to find Lao Zhong in a happy mood. As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw Lao Zhong with a stern face and an unhappy look.

Chen Huaiyang knew the reason and wailed hurriedly, "I'm so busy. The first thing I did when I came back was to check on Liu Jun to make sure he didn't freeze to death."

"I returned to the educated youth camp and hurriedly prepared snacks. I was so busy that I couldn't even catch my breath. But when I came back, Uncle Zhong didn't even look at me. It was so hard for me."

"I work so hard, why don't people sympathize with me?" Chen Huaiyang sighed as he looked at the person's expression. Seeing that he didn't look angry, he put out the appetizers.

A serving of potato soup, two steamed buns, a plate of fried peanuts, and two bottles of wine to take away, the side dishes were definitely well prepared.

Lao Zhong coughed, and the feeling of anger disappeared. His eyes were glued to the table and couldn't move away. He was a single man with no other hobbies, so he was just thinking about this sip of wine!

I could smell the wine the moment I opened the bottle cap. My appetite for the wine was so strong that I had no time to think about losing my temper.

"I thought you were fooling me! I was waiting here eagerly, but you just treated it like a fart and it was gone after a while."

Chen Huaiyang waved his hands hastily, "How could that be possible? I will definitely come if I tell you I want to drink with me. I have been relying on Uncle Zhong's help during this period. How could I possibly fool you?"

"I don't know much about farm work in our brigade, and I need to learn more in the future. Uncle Zhong is experienced, so don't forget to come up with one or two."

As Chen Huaiyang was pouring wine for someone, he saw Lao Zhong carefully take a sip. Finally, his eyes lit up and he gave him a thumbs up, "It's strong enough. This is the kind of wine that makes you feel refreshed!"

Chen Huaiyang handed him the bowl and chopsticks, "Eat something first to fill your stomach, we can drink and talk at the same time."

Chen Huaiyang had already eaten, so he just stayed by the side, occasionally picking up a peanut and crunching it, just acting as someone to chat with.

Old Zhong drank two sips of wine and felt relieved. "You went to see Liu Jun. He seems to be repentant."

Chen Huaiyang shook his head. "How could someone who could do such a thing possibly repent?"

"He thought it was insignificant, that there was no disaster, and that it was not a big deal. He was filled with indignation towards me, thinking that I was making a big deal out of nothing!"

"We had a little quarrel when I first came here. I didn't expect that his hatred towards me had reached such a level. He dared to tamper with such a big thing as flood prevention. Fortunately, I was able to expose it, otherwise I would be a sinner!"

Old Zhong snorted, "People like this must be severely punished before they will obey. They don't have much ability, but they hate capable people. It's this kind of coward that I hate the most."

"I will stand by your side in this matter. The captain will not let this go lightly. The team members have seen it. This matter cannot be avoided. The responsibility must be shouldered."

Chen Huaiyang shook his head. "Uncle Zhong, punishment or not is not the most important thing. Thinking about the consequences of this matter, I feel guilty and uneasy!"

"The captain gave me the task, and luckily I didn't disappoint him, otherwise I would have no face to stay in our team."

Lao Zhong raised his hand to stop him from saying, "You don't have to feel burdened. He is wrong and that's it."

"Don't mention him. It affects his mood. Let him endure it for two days and see if he can still keep his mouth shut."

Chen Huaiyang nodded and drank with him. He also drank a small cup. Seeing Lao Zhong's distressed look, he didn't have the nerve to snatch the food from his mouth.

"Uncle Zhong, it's freezing cold so you should drink less. I'm going to go home first. I haven't had a good bath in a few days. There's a layer of dirt on my body. I have to go back and give it a good bath."

Lao Zhong nodded and said, "Go ahead, have a couple of sips of good wine, I can sleep well tonight."

Chen Huaiyang didn't waste too much time and went back to the educated youth point with a flashlight.

It was quiet at that time, and even the kerosene lamp in the room was turned off. People tried to save as much as possible, after all, kerosene also costs money.

Chen Huaiyang took a bath comfortably. The water was dirty, but after washing, he felt refreshed and full of energy.

He poured out the water and went out quietly.

When I passed by the room of the man with glasses, I still heard his snoring. Why did it feel like this guy was still growing?

He is stronger than when he first came, and seems to have grown taller. He no longer looks frail.

Can doing hard labor help something to grow?

He shook his head at his messy thoughts.

Passing by the kitchen, he quietly pushed open the door of Yang Xiaolin's room. As expected, the door was left open for him. He turned the key and it opened.

The moment I locked the door, I turned on the flashlight.

Seeing a bulge in the quilt, I took off my cotton coat and pants and crawled inside, then easily hugged the warm body in my arms.

Yang Xiaolin saw in the light that it was him, and she put her arms around his neck and snuggled in his arms, tilting her head back and enduring his violent kiss.

The temperature in the room slowly rose, and I felt the coolness being forced away, and I became hot all over.

Chen Huaiyang was extremely satisfied. The soft bodies and sweet dew all tempted people to pick them.

"Linlin, are you waiting for me on purpose?"

Yang Xiaolin bit his chin in anger and could still feel the stubble on it, "You're so annoying!"
