Su Hao couldn't explain it to his aunts, so he jumped up, pulled the rascal down, and beat him up.

Er Laizi was eventually dragged away from the educated youth compound by Xue Hong, who twisted his ear.

Even after the two had walked a long way, they could still hear Er Laizi begging for mercy.

After everyone learned the whole story, they were all busy sharing the gossip with their girlfriends, and soon the educated youth compound became quiet.

The reputation of the educated youth compound was significantly affected by Shu Yun's arrest.

Qi Jun convened everyone for three consecutive days of ideological education classes before the village chief finally let them off the hook.

Shu Yun's behavior was egregious, but she had a good father, and she was released after only five days in jail.

The brigade leader refused to accept her again, and she was now tainted. The educated youth class originally planned to send her back, but in order not to be affected, Shu Yun's father used his connections to transfer her to Qingli Village as an educated youth.

The educated youth compound in Qingli Village was too small, so two more female educated youths were transferred over.

When Shu Yun returned to pack her things, a middle-aged man in a car picked her up.

The man looked like a driver, but that was enough to deter anyone who wanted to bully her.

Shu Yun came out carrying a package, smiling and waving to Wen Li, "Wen, we'll meet again!"

Wen Li twitched the corners of her mouth. Why did she feel that Shu Yun looked even crazier?

The two female educated youths transferred from Qingli Village seem to have a good relationship.

One was named Wan Fang, and the other was named Wang Yan. Both of them looked thin and small, dressed very plainly, and their circumstances didn't seem very good. Perhaps because they were unfamiliar with the environment, they both seemed a little uneasy.

Wanfang seemed timid, but her eyes were always darting around, occasionally glancing at the male educated youth wearing watches.

Everyone felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, so Qi Jun pretended to cough twice to interrupt Wan Fang's scrutiny.

"Wan, Wang, please introduce yourselves so we can all get to know each other!"

Wanfang adjusted the hair ornament in her hair and then gave what she considered a sweet smile.

"Hello everyone, my name is Wan Fang. I've been working in the countryside for four years now, mainly in Qingli Village. I hope you'll all take good care of me!"

Everyone applauded to welcome her, and then it was Wang Yan's turn.

Wang Yan introduced herself, then blushed and sat down, her eyes glancing at Jiang Chen every now and then.

"Welcome to the Forward Brigade! From now on, we're all part of a team. Let's help each other and make progress together!"

After Qi Jun finished speaking, there was another round of applause.

After everyone got to know each other, Qi Jun handed Wan Fang and Niu Zhaodi over to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu became much quieter and less boisterous. He no longer slacked off at work and rarely spoke except for the occasional bickering with Niu Zhaodi.

Qi Jun couldn't find a suitable female leader for the educated youth, so he had to temporarily put Liu Xiu in charge.

After Liu Xiu made arrangements for them, there was nothing else to do.

Back in the backyard, Chen Yan muttered to herself, "Those two newcomers don't seem very well-behaved!"

Wen Li nodded. "We live in the backyard!"

The implication is that there won't be much interaction with them.

These two are characters who have not appeared in the book, but Jiang Chen is still charming. Wang Yan took a liking to Jiang Chen, the male lead, on her first day. He has the potential to become cannon fodder!

Jiang Yue'er heard from somewhere that the new educated youth had taken a liking to Jiang Chen, and hurriedly returned to the educated youth compound from the Jiang family home.

After resting at home for about ten days, Jiang Yue'er's complexion improved significantly, and she gained some weight. Perhaps due to her pregnancy, she radiated maternal glow.

The moment she returned, she declared her ownership to Wang Yan, instantly extinguishing the budding flame of love in Wang Yan's heart.

It's so funny it makes you want to laugh and cry!

Wen Li observed for a few days, and Jiang Chen hadn't gone to the pool again. Could it be that something good had been found?

But I didn't see Jiang Chen take it away.

Isn't it a treasure?

Wen Li kept an eye on Jiang Chen's movements and saw that he was still in a state of panic. She knew that he had not found the good thing that Jiang Yue'er had mentioned. Perhaps he had found it, but it probably wasn't anything very valuable.

Jiang Yue'er became much quieter after becoming pregnant. Wen Li didn't know if she had really quieted down or was brewing some kind of conspiracy. In any case, she still dared not relax.

She hadn't been to the cowshed recently, but Wen Li went there in the dark at night.

When she arrived, Zhou Yu happened to be there as well.

"I've noticed that Jiang Chen has been going to the next village a lot lately. He seems to be getting very close to a female educated youth surnamed Fan. That female educated youth looks like she's quite accomplished."

"Fan? Do you know her name?"

"I was worried about arousing Jiang Chen's suspicion, so I didn't inquire. If you want to know, I can ask him for you?"

"No, don't worry about this, I'll figure it out myself!"

"Okay, it's getting late, I'll head back now!"

"Okay, be careful!"

After Zhou Yu left, Wen Li took out the stewed chicken soup. After the three old men finished drinking the soup, Wen Li started talking about the important matter.

"Grandpa Wang, how is that patient?"

Old Wang was in a good mood; that person had been generous and had even solved their predicament.

"Hehe! He's much better now. Here, this is a manuscript I made based on his medical condition. Take it home and study it carefully. Remember to ask me if you don't understand anything!"

Wen Li glanced at the densely packed manuscript and carefully put it away.

"How's it going over there?"

"It's alright, the two girls are very healthy. Their fever broke and they're running around happily now!"

Old Hou: "From now on, you don't need to avoid them when you come over. They're a family that always repays kindness!"

Wen Li raised an eyebrow. Old Man Hou was always very wary and stubborn. The fact that he could say such a thing meant that he genuinely approved of them.

"They must have some extraordinary abilities to gain Grandpa Hou's approval!"

"Haha, you little rascal, you've learned to tease this old man now?"

"Oh, that's not what I meant at all. Please tell me, I want to know how you accepted them so quickly?"

Old Zhou recounted what had happened a few days prior.

"What? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's nothing serious, just some minor injuries. Don't worry about us!"

"How can this be a small matter? What if those thugs come again?"

"Chang'an and Changping taught them a lesson; they probably won't come!"

Wen Li's face darkened. In the past year, the local thugs from the surrounding villages had not come here. Now they were coming again. Were they here for the Xie family, or did they find out something?

Arriving at this point, Wen Li couldn't help but think things through, after all, Old Man Wang had received a sum of money for medical treatment.

"Were those thugs after you, or after the Xie family?"

Old Zhou: "I'm not sure. They started smashing things up as soon as they arrived. Both our area and the Xie family's place were ransacked!"
