Chapter 56, Episode 0056: Sun Hua is arrested.
“After that, Sun Hua often took Wang Laidi to the commune. Wang Laidi must have been very afraid of him, so he didn’t dare to ask him for help anymore. Instead, he spent two yuan to find Ma Laizi from the second brigade.”

This large melon had a beginning and an end, and the group of people were very satisfied with it.

What was even more unexpected was that there was more to come.

Aunt Wu arrived carrying a big watermelon; her laughter could be heard even before she entered the door.

"Xi'er, your aunt brought you a watermelon, it's so sweet."

Apart from Lin Yuexi, who was already asleep in the rocking chair, everyone else in the room stood up.

Zhang Ze, who was closest to the gate, hurried out to greet her, "Auntie, you've come all this way, why did you bring things?"

Aunt Wu chuckled and handed him the watermelon. "It's nothing special, just grown in our own field. Last year, my son Sanzhuang sent me a packet of watermelon seeds, and I tried planting some myself. I didn't expect our land to be so cooperative; quite a few have grown."

That's right, it seems they chose the wrong season to plant them. They've grown a lot of watermelons, but with the weather about to turn cold, the watermelons aren't very big yet.

I won't say that; it's a bit embarrassing.

Last night, they also picked out a few large pieces to try. She wasn't kidding; they were really sweet, but not very red.

Although her watermelon cultivation wasn't very successful, it brought her a lot of prestige. Her private plot was always surrounded by people, all looking on with envy. The watermelons in her plot had already been numbered and reserved by villagers.

This year his family will have a prosperous New Year; they'll definitely eat a few extra pounds of meat.

When Aunt Wu saw that the rocking chair in the corridor was covered with a blanket, she immediately realized that Lin Yuexi had fallen asleep. She had been coming here often recently, and Lin Yuexi would often fall asleep while eating melons, so she was used to it.

Ren Yan waved her hand at the netizens who were staring at her with shining eyes, and said, "Let's go outside and talk."

Ren Yan received the signal instantly, and Leng Xingran and the others also walked to the door as if by accident, either leaning against the door or against the wall.

"Did you know that Qian, the educated youth, reported Li Bing to Ju Yi? This morning, the police came and arrested Sun Hua."

Ren Yan: "We didn't notice, weren't we arrested at the educated youth settlement?"

They lived so close to the educated youth settlement that when the police came to arrest them, it was bound to cause a stir. There was no way they hadn't heard about it.

Aunt Wu coughed, baring her teeth. "Last night, Sun Hua tripped and fell in the outhouse and hurt his leg. Unfortunately, Li Bin was also in the outhouse at the time. Sun Hua insisted that Li Bin pushed him and demanded that Li Bin take him to the clinic."

Those two are definitely incompatible; Li Bin was extremely unlucky to run into Sun Hua.

"Li Bin seemed to want to avoid trouble, so he sent him to the clinic overnight. When he got there, Sun Hua started making a fuss again. His leg wasn't broken or twisted. Dr. Gao applied some medicine and said he could go home, but he refused to go home. He kept complaining of pain and insisted on staying."

Although it's the village clinic, they still charge for staying there. Isn't this just ripping off Li Bin?

Leng Xingran and Xu Zhichuan exchanged a glance. It seemed that what happened last night was very likely related to Li Bin.

Ren Yan: "So Sun Hua was taken directly from the clinic?"

"Yes, not only Sun Hua, but also several of his close friends were arrested. Fortunately, Erhuzi stopped hanging out with Sun Hua a long time ago, otherwise Aunt Zheng really wouldn't be alive."

"Oh right, Erhu came back today. Someone saw Erhu when the police arrested Sun Hua."

Aunt Wu leaned closer to Ren Yan and whispered mysteriously, "Erhuzi has been missing for over a year. He came back after Sun Hua was arrested. Many people think that Sun Hua's case is related to Erhuzi."

"Huh? Wasn't Sun Hua reported by Qian, the educated youth?"

What exactly did Qian, the educated youth, report against Sun Hua? It seemed like they were trying to take them all down.

Aunt Wu became even more mysterious, glancing around to make sure no one else was nearby before whispering, "I'm telling you this, but don't tell anyone else."

Ren Yan immediately made a gesture to seal her mouth. She promised not to spread it; she was just a casual observer.

“The educated youth settlement used to be very chaotic. Before Li Bin was the settlement leader, it was just like the old society. Female educated youth had to do the laundry, cook, fetch water and chop firewood for the male educated youth. The female educated youth even washed the male educated youth’s underwear.”

"Sigh~"

"Sigh~"

"Sigh~"

"Sigh~"

Four gasps followed.

Not to mention Ren Yan, who was a lesbian, felt disgusted, even Leng Xingran and the other two lesbians found the news unbelievable.

It's understandable for a partner to wash clothes and tea leaves for themselves, but for a female educated youth to wash clothes for a male educated youth? That's ridiculous.

One by one, the faces.

This is truly eye-opening! What is all this about?!

Is it about species diversity?

Aunt Wu was very satisfied with the effect she had achieved and continued, "Li Bin and Qian were educated youth from the same batch. There were seven educated youths who came together at the time. After they arrived, they couldn't stand many of the behaviors of the older educated youths. After making a fuss for a while, Li Bin and the others separated from the older educated youths. The dirty things that happened at the educated youth settlement also spread, and the brigade leader went to give them a severe scolding."

"That time the group was divided quite loosely. Several educated youths started their own cooking in their own rooms. Qian, an educated youth, ate with the former head of the group."

"Around the end of the year, a female educated youth went to the educated youth office to report that she was pregnant and the child was born to the former leader, but the former leader was unwilling to marry her."

"Not only was he unwilling to get married, but the former head of the outpost also obtained drugs to secretly abort the woman's child, and he succeeded. So, the woman, desperate, reported the former head of the outpost."

"This matter is not over yet. Not long after, it was discovered that Qian Zhiqing was pregnant. After the brigade leader and the others asked her, they found out that the child in her belly was also born in Qiandian."

Moreover, Qian Zhiqing was in poor health and could not abort the child in her womb, otherwise it would endanger her life.

The brigade leader and the others originally wanted Qian Zhiqing to return to the city, but by then the former head of the village had already been sent to a farm, and this matter was no longer something the village could handle. They suggested that she go home and let her parents take care of it.

But little did they know that after the brigade leader sent a telegram, Qian Zhiqing's family sent back a telegram severing ties!

How can this be done?

The brigade leader and the others had to consider the village's reputation, and they also felt sorry for Qian, the educated youth. Although Qian knew that she was not upright, she was still a young girl who was not even twenty years old, about the same age as their granddaughter/daughter.

Besides, if they really didn't care about something like this, and Qian Zhiqing did something rash, their consciences would be uneasy, and they wouldn't be able to escape responsibility.

In the end, it was the old Party Secretary who used his connections to arrange for Qian Zhiqing to stay at a relative's house in the commune. Only after Qian Zhiqing gave birth and finished her postpartum confinement was she able to return to the village.

"Qian Zhiqing went to report Sun Hua because of this child."

As an unmarried educated youth, Qian was certainly not capable of raising a child on her own, and besides, she couldn't afford it. She still owed the village a lot of money. The money she used for her ten months of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care was all lent to her by the village.

It just so happened that the third child of the neighbor's family, whom the old Party Secretary had asked to help, was unable to have children. Since Qian Zhiqing had given birth to a boy, the neighbor's family immediately took the child away after learning that Qian Zhiqing could not raise him, and always told others that he was their biological son.

Both parties agreed that Qian Zhiqing could not meet with the child.

Regardless of her motives, Qian Zhiqing has kept her promise all these years and has never gone to see the child.

Until the beginning of this year, the child's adoptive parents suddenly sent news that the child was gone.
