She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 39 Willow Bud Production Team

Hearing her say this, Chen Baoqin was speechless.

However, he was even more resentful inside.

"Hmph, just you wait, I'll make sure you die without even knowing how."

Ji Shuyin was equally assertive, but she didn't say anything harsh.

Some things are better left unargued about.

Now that things have come to this point, she will do everything she can to protect herself.

What is benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom? What is moral pride? Anything that makes you feel wronged is utter nonsense.

In her dream, she was so obedient and easy to talk to, yet she was still bullied mercilessly.
The rest of the night passed peacefully.

Jiang Shi'an sat next to her, barely closing his eyes, waiting for the person next to him!
The next morning, everyone on the train was excited.

For no other reason than that they have reached their destination, the place where they will strive in the future.

As for those who went out, they were excited because they were about to get home.

The four people packed their belongings and prepared to get off the bus.

In May, it's already quite humid and hot in the south.

In Northeast China, it can get quite chilly in the mornings and evenings, so you'll need to wear long sleeves.

As soon as they got off the bus, someone greeted them.

The train stopped in the city, while their destination was in the village, which was still some distance away.

To show respect to everyone, people from various local communes came to pick them up.

It's still a tractor; that's enough to show how much importance they place on it.

There were about a hundred educated youths who came this time, and they were assigned to two different counties.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the four of them are still together, surrounded by young faces, and their faces, besides being a little naive, also show enthusiasm for the future.

Ji Shuyin was alright and didn't react much.

However, being able to get out of the car and stretch my legs is a happy thing.

There were fifty or sixty of them, who boarded four tractors.

It was still a bit crowded because of the luggage.

"Oh my, Secretary Li, what a coincidence to see you here!"

Ji Shuyin and Huang Chunjing exchanged a glance, and both involuntarily looked down from the car.

It was Chen Baoqin; she actually knew the person who came to pick up the educated youth.

"Chen Baoqin, what are you doing here?"

The other person was also surprised and asked a question.

“We went to visit relatives in the south, and we ran into some trouble. My younger brother is in a bit of trouble right now.”

Are you going back?

"Perfect timing, I'll go with you."

The man didn't stand on ceremony; carrying his bundle, he started to walk away.

The "Secretary Li" heard this but did not stop them.

"We need to go to the county to settle these educated youths in properly."

If you go back to the village, you definitely won't be able to bring it.

It's quite normal to hitch a ride with an acquaintance.

"It's alright, I'll walk back once I get to the county town."

She looked up and saw four pairs of eyes staring at her.

In fact, quite a few people know her, but they are all just bystanders.

Upon seeing this, Chen Baoqin immediately became smug again.

"Haha, you actually want to go to our county town? You're really asking for trouble!"
Just wait, your good days are yet to come!

She said this with such smug satisfaction that even Secretary Li could tell she was being sarcastic.

"What, you two know each other?"

"Hmph, it's more than just knowing them; my brother was framed by them."

Upon hearing this, Huang Chunjing immediately objected.

This whole thing started because of her, so naturally I have to stand up for her.

Is it a charge of hooliganism or a frame-up?
"Are you really going to say that the security team members are just sitting around doing nothing?" This seemingly random sentence contained some crucial information.

Secretary Li wasn't stupid; he knew exactly what kind of person Chen Baosheng was.

With so many educated youth comrades watching, he couldn't afford to lose face.

Moreover, who knows, one of them might be someone with power and influence!
What if we offend them? It would be a loss for us!
Originally, I had no connection with the Chen family; we were just acquaintances who would greet each other when we met.

"Since we've had a disagreement, then you can go to the tractor over there. We're getting ready to leave."

Seeing that the person had left, and calling for everyone to prepare to go, Chen Baoqin didn't waste any time.

Soon, we set off.

Their destination this time is Shousong County, but as for which village they will visit, that depends on what the local authorities decide.

Looking at the familiar scene, Ji Shuyin felt somewhat down.

In her dream, it was also this place, where she suffered and toiled for so long.

Although she now feels that dream is ethereal and unreal, many things have come together, making her unable to help but have doubts.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling a little carsick?"

Jiang Shi'an asked a question, her voice not quiet, but the tractor's "putt-putt-putt" sound was very loud, so she couldn't hear it very clearly.

"It's okay~"

I gave a simple answer and didn't take it too seriously.

The other person said something to the person next to them, laid the suitcase down, and let her sit down.

He even handed her his water bottle.

The movement was fluid and effortless, but Ji Shuyin didn't take it. She waved her hand and took out her own water bottle.

There are so many people around; it wouldn't be good if they saw us.

I don't care, but Jiang Shi'an is different.

Yes, in my past life, this person wasn't among those who went to the countryside.

She also did not encounter Huang Chunjing and Feng Jinghuan, and the time she went to the countryside was different from this time.

So, some things have changed.

Upon arriving in the county town, someone organized everyone to eat together in the canteen, and afterwards, these people were all assigned to different places.

Each person went to a different village, and their future life was roughly predetermined.

……

“Willow Sprout Village: Ji Shuyin, Feng Jinghuan, Zhou Chaoyang…”

As she finished speaking, Huang Chunjing became excited.

"Great, great, we're all together."

This girl was genuinely happy.

After all, everyone already knows each other well, and if they're assigned to the same village, they can look out for each other.

Ji Shuyin couldn't help but glance at Jiang Shi'an.

The other person happened to be looking over, with a faint smile. She quickly turned away, as if she had done something wrong.

Strange, how could this be so strange?

"Below is the list of educated youth from Shanquangou Village..."

Ji Shuyin was immediately captivated upon hearing this.

In her dream, that was the place where she went to the countryside.

Now, I've actually missed it.

Very good, at least it proves that dreams don't come true.

After everyone was divided up, the twenty people from Liushuyazi Village—twelve boys and eight girls—got on the oxcart together.

Here, people from the village came to pick us up.

"Comrade Ji Shuyin, Comrade Huang Chunjing, I heard from Secretary Li that you had a falling out with Chen Baoqin and her brother?"

The news spread so fast! And it was said by that Secretary Li. Could it be that these two people really have powerful connections?

"Captain, it's true. Isn't it a bit troublesome for you to ask this question?"

Upon hearing this, the other party sighed silently.

"It is indeed a bit troublesome..."
