"Captain, how much further?" Chen Yan's feet were blistered, and her tone wasn't very good. Even with Qi Jun stopping her, she couldn't help but complain.

The captain saw that everyone was exhausted and sweating profusely, and their heads were practically steaming from the heat.

He didn't want to waste time either. The original plan was to get to the village in two hours, but at this rate, it would probably take them three hours.

"Two people, get on the oxcart and rest for a while. You can take turns sitting there!"

As soon as the captain finished speaking, Chen Yan and Guo Caixia quickly climbed onto the oxcart.

Yu Shuang immediately became displeased and walked confidently up to Guo Caixia. "Guo Caixia, come down. I'll sit for a while, and then I'll let you have my way!"

"Shuangshuang, I haven't eaten or drunk anything all day, I really can't go on, can I rest for a while?" Guo Caixia, as always, liked to play the victim.

"Fine! Fine!" Yu Shuang couldn't stand her half-crying look and waved her hand.

"Hang in there, everyone! We'll be there soon!" The captain encouraged everyone as he drove the oxcart.

The boys suddenly felt energized again when they heard they were almost there.

"Hey! Let's all introduce ourselves. We all come from different parts of the country, and it's fate that we're all assigned to the same rural area. We'll be living together from now on, so let's get to know each other first. I'll go first. My name is Deng Wei, I'm from Beijing, and I'm twenty years old!"

"My name is Su Hao, I'm nineteen years old, and I'm also from Beijing!"

"My name is Qi Jun, and this is Chen Yan. We're from Suzhou. Our families live in the same compound, so we've known each other since we were little!"

Chen Yan proudly raised her head and hummed in greeting.

"Jiang Chen!" Jiang Chen only said his name, and then stopped talking.

"My name is Wen Li, and I'm from Hai City. I hope we can get to know each other well from now on!"

Although Wen Li didn't want to have too much contact with them, she couldn't completely exclude them. After all, they would be living together for several years. It would be best if they could coexist peacefully, but it didn't matter if they couldn't. However, she had to make her stance clear.

"My name is Yu Shuang, I'm eighteen years old, and I'm from Beijing. My father is the director of a steel factory, and my mother is the director of a textile factory!"

After Yu Shuang finished speaking, she also raised her head arrogantly, just like Chen Yan.

Chen Yan rolled her eyes.

"My name is Guo Caixia. Xiaoli and I are childhood friends. We both come from Haishi!"

Wenli:......

"Tch, you treat them like good friends, but do you think they treat you like a friend?" Yu Shuang mocked again.

"We just had a little disagreement..." Guo Caixia said, glancing timidly at Wen Li.

Wen Li's face darkened, and she wasn't going to tolerate her. "Guo Caixia, how much money have you swindled from me over the years, along with all sorts of food and clothes? Do I need to go over the details with you?"

Guo Caixia's face turned pale. She hadn't expected Wen Li to bring up her past embarrassment like that.

She realized with certainty that Wen Li had really changed!

Everyone was surprised by this turn of events and looked at Guo Caixia with meaningful glances.

When they first saw Guo Caixia trying to please Wen Li, they all thought Wen Li was bullying her; they never expected this turn of events.

"Little Pear, what are you talking about? You gave it to me willingly; I didn't ask you for it!"

Wen Li rolled her eyes. "Right, right, you didn't ask me for it. You just always try to play the victim in front of me. Not only did you take the clothes I gave you and exchange them, but you also act like I'm bullying you. You're so pathetic!"

"Pfft~" Su Hao was immediately amused by Wen Li. Realizing he had laughed, he quickly tried to cover it up, "Haha, the weather's nice today!"

Chen Yan was much more direct, "I didn't realize you were so naive!"

Wen Li shrugged. "There's nothing we can do. Everyone's young then, thinking they're a savior, but in other people's eyes, you're just a big idiot!"

"Little Pear~ you... Waaah, you really misunderstood me!" Guo Caixia almost vomited blood, but she still had to maintain her pitiful persona.

Wen Li rolled her eyes, speechless.

"Haha, Wen Li, I really like you. From now on, you can play with me!"

"Okay!" Wen Li didn't mind having another friend. Although Chen Yan was a bit arrogant, at least she didn't have many ulterior motives.

After everyone introduced themselves, they quickly became acquainted. Wen Li and Chen Yan got along quite well, and as long as you ignored the occasional barbed remarks from her, it was acceptable.

Su Hao and the others originally wanted to chat with Jiang Chen, but sensing his aloofness and indifference, they gradually stopped talking to him.

If it weren't for his Beijing accent, most people probably wouldn't know where he came from.

Wen Li thought to herself: Of course you can't get close to the male lead! Only the female lead can heal the male lead's heart, which is full of wounds. Only the female lead can get close to him!

Moreover, the male lead has to keep his identity a secret, and he can't relax for a moment!

Wen Li herself was amused by her own sarcastic and strange behavior.

Chen Yan nudged Wen Li's shoulder. "What are you grinning about!"

Wen Li shook her head. "Nothing! Just thinking about something funny."

Just when everyone was about to give up, the oxcart finally swayed and wobbled into the village. It was time to get off work, and the villagers all came forward to see the new educated youth.

"Wow, that girl is as beautiful as an angel! She's so gorgeous!"

"The one in the red dress looks good too!"

"Wow! The male educated youth who came this time are quite handsome too!"

"Why did the team leader choose so many people? They're obviously not here to work; they're just causing trouble!"

"Hey! These educated youth who came this time are not only good-looking, but also rich! Look, several of them are wearing watches!"

As more and more people gathered, the captain quickly shooed them away.

"Alright, now that you're done with work, hurry home and cook dinner. What are you all doing here?"

At this moment, a male and a female educated youth also came out of the educated youth compound.

Looking over, Wen Li saw that the two educated youths looked much like the villagers now, indicating that they had been in the countryside for quite some time. Wen Li admired them for being able to persevere for so long.

"Chen, Li, take them downstairs and settle them in, then take them to the brigade headquarters to collect their rations!"

Chen Jiahao stepped forward with a smile, "Okay, thank you for your trouble, Captain!"

The brigade leader dropped the people off and then drove away in his oxcart.

The newly arrived educated youth were left standing there, bewildered in the wind.

Chen Jiahao and Li Hong, who were both in charge of the educated youth compound, quickly invited the newcomers in.

"Hello everyone, I'm Chen Jiahao, the person in charge of the educated youth compound. Li Hong, an educated youth, is in charge of the girls' area. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us!"

"Hello, Chen Qingqing, hello, Li Qingqing, my name is Deng Wei, and they..."

After a brief introduction, Chen Jiahao led his people inside.
