of"Ning Yuan looked at Rong Zhao Nan, who had remained silent the whole time, a hint of surprise in her eyes. He was always taciturn in front of everyone because of his "special" status.This time, she...Ning Yuan looked at her: "If there's only one five-dollar bill left in your box, it's mine!"

Tang ZanZan was incredibly angry and took out five dollars from the cookie tin: "Ning Yuan, you're talking nonsense! This five dollars for Big Steel is mine. Do you even have that much money!"

This five-yuan note printed with a portrait of Daqing Steel Mill was kept specially in a box. Her everyday coins and banknotes, which usually amounted to only a few cents, she carried on her person.

If she hadn't trusted those who lived together but only fawned over her, she wouldn't have left her box unlocked.

Who would have thought that Ning Yuan, this little follower, would actually turn the tables!

Ning Yuan smiled faintly, "Since my family can send me longevity biscuits and Big White Rabbit candies, of course I have a living allowance."

This statement instantly caused everyone to look at each other in surprise, and they began whispering amongst themselves.

"That's right, it wouldn't be surprising if Ning Yuan's family could send her such high-end cookies and candies, even five yuan wouldn't be strange."

"Who stole from whom"

The educated youth lived, worked and ate in the village without spending any money. But each month, their families would give them two or three yuan as living allowance to buy things like soap, matches, and salt.

Five dollars is quite a lot.

Huang Xuehong was also stunned. He instinctively pointed at Ning Yuan, mimicking Rong Zhaonan's tone from earlier: "Words are cheap, do you have any evidence!"

Tang Zhenzhen also sneered, waving the five-dollar bill in her face: "That's right, do you have any evidence Or are you going to ask it, and it will agree to you You, who hang around with bad people..."

Before she could finish her words, Ningyuan seized the opportunity and snatched the money that was waving in front of her face.

Tang Zhenzhen was both surprised and angry: "You dare to rob..."

The next moment, Ning Yuan held up the money and said to everyone, "Look closely, there's my name on these five dollars. I wrote it in case I lost them!"

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on the five yuan in Ning Yuan's hand.

As expected, on the lower right corner of the five dollar bill embossed with a steelworker's figure were two characters—Ningyuan.

Everyone was stunned. This money really would "agree" to Ning Yuan's request.

The villagers' eyes, even when they looked at Huang Xuedong and Tan Xiaoxia, became strange.

“So the money really belongs to Ning Zhiqing!”

"Isn't this like the thief crying 'thief' The evidence is in the hands of others, they don't have any evidence themselves, and they still say that others stole their things..."

The male educated youths were also taken aback by this strange turn of events. They looked at each other in disbelief, wondering how someone like her, a blossoming flower among them, could have such a bad character

Tang Yan's face flushed red and white, she reached out to grab it: "How is that possible When did you put your name on my money!"

Ning Yuan immediately took a step back and coldly threw back the previous sentence: "You dare to rob!"

Tang Zhenzhen was furious and reached out to grab it again: “Give it back to me! That’s my money! My money!!”

Li extended a hand and grabbed her shoulders, his face grim and ugly —

"Tang Zhiqing, are you done with your troublemaking Slandering and accusing people out of the blue is a crime!"

Tang ZanZan looked at the disdain in Li Yan's eyes, her delicate face flushed red, her chest rising and falling.

She really wanted to scream in frustration— You bunch of idiots, she's the one who framed me, the money is mine, it's mine!!

But the looks from the people around her, even Qin Xiaoxia grabbing her arm.

Tang Yan's tears welled up instantly, and she choked back with grievance: "Li Yan... Li Deputy Secretary... I understand. Maybe I got it wrong. My five dollars is in Qin Xiaoxia's textbook."

Qin Xiaoxia felt Tang Zhenzhen's fingers pinching her arm, it hurt so much that she gasped and could only nod: "Yes, yes, yes... I remember. There are five dollars from Zhenzhen in my study book."

This excuse is so flimsy.

But... this matter has blown up, and it's not a good thing for the educated youths who hope to return to the city.

Li Yan glanced at Ning Yuan, then looked at Tang Zhenzhen who was crying: "Return the money to Ning Zhiqing and apologize for the misunderstanding. The production team can treat you as a first-time offender and not record it."

Tang Zhenzhen's fingertips were so pinched that her palms were about to bleed, but she knew she couldn't...she couldn't collapse on the spot, and she certainly couldn't snatch the five yuan back from Ning Yuan's hands.

She gave Ning Yuan a smile that was even uglier than crying: "Ning Yuan, I'm sorry... can you forgive me"

Ning Yuan looked at her calmly: "Be a good person and have fewer bad thoughts, or you'll lose both your wife and your soldiers."

The moment she took the cookies and candy this morning, she guessed that Tang Zhenzhen's personality wouldn't let it go.

So, she discreetly wrote her name on the inconspicuous five-dollar bill.

After finishing, she turned and went back to the small hut by the cow shed.

Tang Zhenzhen listened to her veiled sarcasm, wishing she could rush up and slap Hua Ningyuan's face.

But in the end, it was Qin Xiaoxia who pulled her back. She gritted her teeth, turned around with tears welling up in her eyes, and rushed away covering her face.

Huang Xuěhóng watched Tang Zhēnzhēn run away, and grumbled unwillingly: "Níng Yuān splashed me with dirty water..."

"Secretary Li, that... Let me take Xuered to take a bath first!" Qin Xiaoxia smiled at Li Yandong, then forcefully dragged the foul-smelling Huang Xuered away.

All the people involved are gone now. Li Yan glanced at the other young intellectuals and villagers who were watching the commotion: "You all should disperse."

The squad leader spoke, and everyone looked at each other in surprise. Some whispered about it, while others dispersed.

Li Yan looked at Rong Zhao, his face cold and hard. "Treat Ning Zhiqing well, don't bully or oppress women, study the leader's thoughts well, the team will check your ideological transformation situation at any time!"

Rong Zhaonan lowered his cold and deep eyes, letting out a light sneer: "Yes..."

The key point of this young deputy secretary's words is - to treat the educated youths well, otherwise, ideological transformation will be insufficient

The little agent is quite charming and capable, very good at deceiving people.

Li Yan looked at Ning Yuan, his expression softened a lot: "Ning Zhiqing, Aunt Bai came from the commune this afternoon, she should be here to bring you living expenses. She's waiting for you in the production team office."

Aunt Bai is Ning Yuan's aunt, living in the neighboring village. Although they lived in different villages, both belonged to the same commune. Aunt Bai also played a role in bringing Ning Yuan and his partner together.

Ning Yuan stiffened upon hearing her aunt's name, nodding with agitation and confusion: "Okay."

Li Yan nodded and led Ning Yuan to leave, acting as if Rong Zhaonan didn't exist at all.

Rong Zhaonan watched them walk away with several people wearing red armbands.

Ning Yuan's aunt

He pushed his old black-rimmed glasses down the bridge of his nose coldly and followed silently.

This is a chance to figure out what your so-called 'wife' is really like, isn't it

......

Ning Yuan followed Li Yan and the other two, walking silently all the way.

Li Yan wanted to ask her why, even though they had been together for several days and had agreed to see each other again as a couple, she was now changing her mind.

But I also felt that anything I said wouldn't make any difference, especially with other people here.

Ning Yuan had no intention of paying attention to Li Yan. She knew that her aunt must have heard that she was married and rushed over immediately.

Her mother was merely cold to her, while her aunt was strict and had exacting rules.

When she was young, no one at home had time to take care of her. During the winter and summer vacations, they would send her to her aunt's house to work as a laborer.

She was responsible for following her aunt's orders to do housework, but even if a few drops of water splashed on the sink when she washed dishes, or if she spoke a little loudly.

He deserved to be scolded loudly — he was out of line. He had to write a reflection, and if he didn't eat, he would be beaten with a twisted face.

But her mother thought this was teaching her manners, and even wanted to give her away to her childless aunt. It was only because her father saw how badly she was crying that he didn't agree.

This time, she was assigned to this village. Her mother even said that she had good luck, having relatives who could look after her, and insisted on giving all her living expenses to her aunt.

If you want to have two and a half dollars for living expenses every month, you have to work as a laborer at your aunt's place.

Then, he continued to be punished frequently.

Therefore, she had always been afraid of this aunt who claimed to be her second mother in her previous life. She was almost like a shadow from her childhood.

Unless she absolutely had to go for living expenses, she would rather stay at the countryside re-education camp than go to her aunt's oppressive home.

In her previous life, the only thing her aunt had ever done that made her grateful was introducing Li Yan as her partner.

Later I found out that after they started dating, my aunt's two sons - her eldest cousin - were transferred to work at the commune.

After she and Li Yan obtained their marriage certificate, her younger cousin successfully received a draft quota from the countryside.

All of this was forced on Li Yan by his aunt.

And from then on, Li Yan began to bother her, feeling that this was having a bad effect on him. He was an upright person and rarely acted in his family's self-interest.

As a result, he firmly refused to help her transfer out of the silk weaving factory where she worked three shifts and stood for ten hours a day.

Even though she miscarried several times because of overwork, he thought it was also for the glory of labor - deserved.

He owes her and her family nothing.

Ning Yuan pulled at the corners of her lips expressionlessly.

This time, she suddenly got married, ruining her domineering aunt’s plans completely. What will the aunt do

There was a secret, cathartic sense of pleasure in her heart.

Even, I really want to see my aunt's furious expression.

Rong Zhao nan quietly moved in the shadows of the trees, watching Ning Yuan's expression, he seemed thoughtful.go for living expenses, she would rather stay at the countryside re-education camp than go to her aunt's oppressive home.In her previous life, the only thing her aunt had ever done that made her grate...
