I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 242: Educated Youths in the Countryside in the 70s 31

In her previous world, she placed a lot of charcoal and a stove. With these, she could cook even if there was no electricity in the space.

Her stoves were all custom-made by craftsmen, and the charcoal was of the best quality. It could not only burn for a long time, but also did not produce choking smoke. Originally, these charcoals were placed in the palace by the ladies to keep them from freezing in the winter.

But when it came to her, she used it to cook.

After locking the door, Qingyue entered the space and took out two stoves, one for steaming rice and the other for making braised pork.

After having a delicious meal and reading for a while, Qingyue went to bed after cleaning up.

She is now in the Northeast, where it usually gets cold very early. When people in other places are still wearing light clothes, Qingyue has already put on a thick coat.

When the weather is cold, Qingyue doesn't go out often. She only goes out for a walk when she feels really bored at home.

Of course, she also heard a lot of gossip during this period, some of which were told to her by Wang Juan, and some of which she heard herself.

According to Wang Juan, some of the new educated youth were difficult to deal with and restless, with a big quarrel almost every five days and a small quarrel every three days.

For example, the toothpaste of a new educated youth named Wu Xiaoli was taken away by someone else. She made a big fuss in the educated youth compound and broke into the rooms where other educated youths lived and rummaged around. Finally, she found it in the house of Li Zhaodi, who lived in the same room with her, and the two had a fight.

There was also an educated youth named Zhang Ruoxue who liked to take advantage of others. When she saw other educated youth had something delicious, she would want to take it. She also secretly picked a lot of vegetables from other educated youths' vegetable fields. If an old educated youth hadn't seen it and told her about it, who knows when she would have been discovered.

There was also an educated youth named He Jun. He was handsome and bookish. He was gentle to both the educated youth and the girls in the village. Some girls were bewitched by his face and words, and they would send him food from time to time. Although he said no every time, he was not slow in action and accepted whatever food was given to him.

Wang Juan looked relieved when she said this. Fortunately, she did not live in the same room with the new female educated youth, otherwise, who knows what would have happened to her.

Maybe she will get involved.

The Youth League Home was bustling with activity, and Fang Yun's place was no less lively.

That day she was sent to the hospital because she felt weak all over. The doctor did not find anything wrong after examination and asked her to stay in the hospital for a few days to observe what the problem was.

Jiang Yuan worked in the factory and it was impossible for him to come. Her father-in-law could not take care of his daughter-in-law, so only her mother-in-law, Zhao Meihua, could take care of her.

Zhao Meihua was very angry about this and yelled at Fang Yun in the hospital, saying that Fang Yun was just pretending to be healthy. If he was really sick, how could the doctor not find out?

Especially two days later, after the effect of the medicine Qingyue gave Fang Yun wore off, Fang Yun was able to move and had strength back, which made Zhao Meihua even more certain that Fang Yun was pretending.

She was even more unfriendly to Fang Yun. After taking Fang Yun back to the village, she made her start working without letting her rest, and even made her do more work and more tiring work than before.

She also said that her stay in the hospital for the past few days had delayed a lot of housework and wasted money. Zhao Meihua also took the opportunity to take back the 50 yuan betrothal money she had given to Fang Yun when they got married.

Because of this incident, Fang Yun was left with no money.

This matter is not over yet. The fact that Jiang Yuan wanted to hide that he was a temporary worker has been exposed.

It turned out that after Zhao Meihua went to the hospital, she didn't care about what was wrong with Fang Yun's health. Instead, she scolded Fang Yun. After scolding her, Zhao Meihua left the hospital.

She doesn't like Fang Yun, so it's impossible for her to take care of her.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Meihua went to the factory to see her son. After arriving there, she found out that her son was not a regular employee but just a temporary worker.

While feeling disappointed, she also subconsciously helped her son to hide it.

But how could Qingyue keep this secret? Of course, she had to tell it out loud so that everyone in the village would know.

So one night, when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Qingyue sneaked into Zhao Meihua's house and gave her some medicine.

Zhao Meihua has a bad temper and easily gets into conflicts with others. Once when she was arguing with an aunt named Xiuzhi who lived near her over some things, she unconsciously mentioned that Jiang Yuan was a temporary worker.

Zhao Meihua and her aunt Xiuzhi had always been at odds with each other. When Zhao Meihua learned that her son had a formal job in the city, she boasted about it, especially in front of her aunt Xiuzhi.

Aunt Xiuzhi had been unhappy with Zhao Meihua for a long time. After hearing the news, she was so happy that she couldn't sleep. She also helped Zhao Meihua spread the news in the village.

Soon the news spread from one person to ten, and then to a hundred, and then everyone in the village knew about it.

After Zhao Meihua found out, she had another quarrel with Aunt Xiuzhi. This time, Aunt Xiuzhi's fighting spirit increased and Zhao Meihua was defeated.

After returning home, Zhao Meihua was upset and her chest was heaving with anger. When she saw Fang Yun in the yard, she finally found someone to vent her anger on, so she scolded Fang Yun.

She said that if Fang Yun hadn't pretended to be sick, she wouldn't have gone to the hospital, and if she hadn't gone to the hospital, she wouldn't have thought about seeing her son, and then she wouldn't have known that her son was a temporary worker, and if she didn't know, she wouldn't have embarrassed herself in front of the whole village by saying it out of anger.

In short, in Zhao Meihua's heart, it was not her fault. It was all because of Fang Yun. It was all Fang Yun's fault.

Jiang Yuan in the city didn't know that the villagers knew what he was hiding. When he returned to the village during his rest time, the villagers no longer looked at him with envy as before, but with contempt and disdain.

This made Jiang Yuan confused and very uneasy.

He quickened his pace and returned home, and only then did he ask Zhao Meihua what had happened.

Jiang Yuan was so angry that his face turned blue. Zhao Meihua naturally didn't want her son to blame her and think it was her fault, so she continued to say the same thing, saying that it was all Fang Yun's fault.

Jiang Yuan is worthy of being Zhao Meihua's son. Like Zhao Meihua, he likes to vent his anger on others and always blames others for everything.

In his heart, he also blamed Fang Yun, especially since her parents had not come here, let alone sent anything here, since he and Fang Yun had been married.

Only at this moment did he realize that he had been fooled by Fang Yun and that she had been lying to him.

With all the events that happened one after another, Jiang Yuan's already limited affection for Fang Yun was completely exhausted. Before, when he saw his mother making Fang Yun do so much work, he couldn't help but say a few words for Fang Yun.

But now that he has seen it, he will just pretend not to see it and won’t say a word.
