g over. Ning Yuan nimbly dodged her and even pulled Rong Zhaonan behind her, using him as a human shield and pretending he was invisible.Then Huang Xuěhóng "dong" with a thud couldn't hold his momentu...Ning Yuan looked at her: “If there’s only one five-dollar bill left in your box, it’s mine!”

Tang Zhenzhen was extremely angry and took out five yuan from the cookie tin: "Ning Yuan, you're talking nonsense! This five yuan for the Big Steel Production Drive is mine. Do you have that much money!"

This five-dollar bill printed with the Great Steel Mills, she kept it in a special box. For her everyday loose change of a few cents here and there, she kept it on her person.

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

Who knew Ning Yuan, this little shadow, would actually turn things upside down!

Ning Yuan smiled faintly, "My family can send me longevity biscuits and white rabbit toffee, of course I have living allowance."

This remark instantly left everyone speechless, and they began whispering among themselves.

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

"Who stole from whom"

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

Five dollars is a lot.

Huang Xuehong was also a little stunned. Instinctively, she pointed at Ning Yuan and mimicked Rong Zhaonan's tone from just now: "Words without evidence are meaningless! Do you have any proof"

Tang Zhenzhen also sneered, waving the five yuan note in her face: “That’s right, do you have any evidence Or are you going to call it and expect it to agree to you You, someone who hangs out with criminals...”

Before she could finish her words, Ning Yuan took advantage of the situation and snatched the money that was waving in front of her face.

Tang Zhenzhen was shocked 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 written on this five yuan bill. I wrote it so I wouldn't lose it!"

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

As expected, the two characters "Ning Yuan" are printed on the lower right corner of the five-dollar bill featuring a steelworker.

Everyone was stunned. This money really knows how to "agree" with Ning Yuan.

The villagers' eyes, even when looking at Huang Xuěhóng and Qin Xiáxiá, had become strange.

"So this money really belongs to the Qing youth!”

"Isn't this like the thief crying wolf The evidence is in other people's hands, and she has none of her own. Yet, she accuses others of stealing from her..."

The male educated youth were also taken aback by this strange reversal, looking at each other in disbelief. Their own team's flower had such a bad character

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

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

Tang Zhenzhen was furious and reached out to grab her again: "Give it back to me! That's my money! My money!!"

Li reached out and grabbed her shoulders, his face serious and grim.

"Tang Zhiqing, are you done making a scene Making false accusations and putting labels on people is a crime!"

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

She desperately wanted to scream — 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 Xiaoxiao, grabbed her arm.

Tang Yan's tears came down instantly, she choked up with grievance: "Li Yan... Li Fushou... I understand, maybe I got it wrong. My five dollars was put in Qin Xiaoxia's study book."

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 yuan from Zhenzhen in my study book."

This excuse is so lame.

But... this matter has become a big deal, and for the educated youths who hope to return to their hometowns, it's not good news.

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

Tang Zhenzhen's fingertips were white from clenching her hand so tightly, she was about to bleed. But she knew she couldn't... she couldn't break down right now, and she definitely couldn't snatch the five yuan back from Ning Yuan's hand.

She forced a smile at Ning Yuan, one that was 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 crooked thoughts, so you won't lose both wife and soldiers."

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

So, she wrote her name inconspicuously on a five-dollar bill.

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

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

But it was Qin Xiaoxia who pulled her back. She gritted her teeth, turned around with tears in her eyes, and covered her face as she hurriedly ran away.

Huang Xueming watched Tang Zhenzhen run away, unwillingly muttering to himself, "Ning Yuan splashed me with dirty water..."

"Li Secretary, that... I'll take Xuered to take a bath first!" Qin Xiaoxia smiled at Li Yandong and dragged the smelly Huang Xuered away.

All the parties involved have left, Li Yan glanced at the other onlookers, the young intellectuals and villagers: "You can all disperse now."

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

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

Rong Zhao Nan lowered his cold and deep eyes, lightly sneering: "Yes..."

The key point of this young deputy secretary's speech is—to treat the Ning Zhiqing well, otherwise their ideological transformation won't be complete

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

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

Bai Yi is Ning Yuan's aunt, living in the neighboring village. Although they belong to different families, they are both under the same commune. Bai Yi was also the one who introduced them.

Ning Yuan's body stiffened when she heard her aunt's name, and she nodded in a flustered manner: "Okay."

Li Yan nodded and, leading Ning Yuan, prepared to leave, as if Rong Zhao'nan didn't exist at all.

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

Níng Yuán's great aunt

He pushed his old black-rimmed glasses up his nose coldly and followed silently.

This is a chance to get to know what your so-called 'wife' is really all about, isn't it

......

Ning Yuan walked silently along with Li Yan, the two of them not saying a word.

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

Yet, I felt that anything I said would be meaningless, especially with other people here.

Ning Yuan had no mind to pay attention to Li Yan, she knew her aunt must have come over as soon as she heard she was married.

Her mother was merely cold towards her, but her aunt was strict and demanded strict rules.

When she was little, no one at home had time to take care of her. Every summer and winter break, they would just send her to her aunt's house to work as a laborer.

She was responsible for following her aunt's instructions to do housework, but even if a few drops of water from the washing-up splashed on the sink or she spoke a little louder.

He had to be reprimanded loudly — unruly, write a self-criticism, no food, with a sullen face and get beaten.

Her mother, however, thought this was teaching her manners and even wanted to give her away to her childless aunt. It was only because her current father saw how badly she was crying that he refused.

This time when she was sent to the countryside, her mother said it was good luck. There were relatives there who would take care of her, so she gave all of her living expenses to her aunt.

If you want to have two and a half dollars as your monthly allowance, you'll have to work for your aunt.

Then, he continued to be punished frequently.

Therefore, she had always been afraid of this self-proclaimed second mother, her aunt, from her previous life. She was almost like a shadow in her childhood.

Unless she absolutely had to take money for living expenses, she would rather stay at the rural commune than go to her aunt's oppressive home.

In her previous life, the only thing her aunt had ever done that she was grateful for was introducing her to Li Yan as a potential 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 got their marriage license, her little cousin successfully obtained a military draft quota from the countryside.

This was all done by Li Yan under pressure from his aunt.

And from then on, Li Yan started to bother her, feeling that this was bad for him. He was an honest person and rarely acted in the interests of his family.

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

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

He owes her and her family nothing.

Ning Yuan pulled the corner of her lips expressionlessly.

She suddenly got married this lifetime, completely ruining her domineering aunt's plans. What would the aunt do

There was a secret, exhilarating sense of relief in her heart.

I even want to see my aunt's angry expression.

Rong Zhaonan silently moved within the shadows of the trees, observing Ning Yuan's expression with a thoughtful gaze."But before she could get closer, a large hand suddenly shot out and shoved her hard."Ouch!" Huang Xuehong's round body retreated like a ball, falling into a squat. She winced in pain, gritting her te...
