Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 121 People’s hearts are unpredictable

Jiang Yu returned to the educated youth point in a good mood and spent the entire afternoon melting iron wire and reshaping rubber tires.

The handlebars he picked up last time were still there, and Jiang Yu, who was already relatively skilled, got the bicycle out in just a few days.

Chen Jinghan and Fu Biao sneaked in late at night and took the money away. Jiang Yu didn't even look at the money he had just received and threw it into the space. Maybe it was because there was too much money.

A few days later, the bicycle with the steel stamp was brought back by two male educated youth.

The villagers became restless again and started talking about it.

The village could have added a few bicycles this year. If they didn't have the channels, they could have directly bought the ones made by Master Jiang. They have money in their pockets, so they don't have to worry.

But the thief at the end of last year visited all the wealthy families in the village, so this beautiful wish was doomed to fail to come true. As a result, some people in the village inevitably had opinions about the few people with bulging pockets among the educated youth.

The villagers, who had been accustomed to the good life of Jiang Yu, Xue Li and Xiong Lijin with more money, could not help but feel jealous when they saw Chen Jinghan and Fu Biao's bicycles.

Liang Shugen stared at the educated youth point with his rabbit eyes wide open.

Jiang Yu and his friends didn't notice this problem at first, until the villagers couldn't help but come forward to inquire about their family background, then they realized it.

It still attracts attention. Chen Jinghan, who originally wanted to keep a low profile in the countryside, suddenly came back to her senses from the joy of having a new item.

Fu Biao was fine. He was a straightforward person and replied to the villager who asked, "What's the matter? Auntie wants to introduce me to someone? But forget it. My family has already arranged it. You don't need to worry about it."

Seeing this, Chen Jinghan wanted to say that he had someone he liked, but then he thought about the tacit understanding between him and Xue Li and kept silent.

The village auntie was interrupted, and her happy expression suddenly changed. "Oh, you, young educated youth Fu, look down on us country people? I came to ask because I thought my niece is good-looking and worthy of you. But you rejected me before I even finished speaking. Don't try to frame me."

Fu Biao chuckled, "You're good-looking but haven't found a partner yet? Auntie, is the gift your family wants too much? As for me, everyone in our team knows the situation well, so just settle for something that's OK. But it's better not to find me. I rely on my family for support. If you don't mind me being a gigolo, you can bring the person here to see." As for what will happen after seeing him, we'll talk about it then.

The aunt's face darkened. What did she mean? Was she saying that her family was picky, so her daughter couldn't get married? She couldn't even spit out ivory, and she still wanted to eat free food? Shameless......

Fu Biao ignited the old lady's anger with just a few words, and then he walked away leisurely, leaving the onlookers there laughing and making fun of the old lady.

Chen Jinghan returned to the educated youth point and sighed, feeling that he was indeed like what his father had said, that young people are more impatient, and although they may think well on weekdays, they are still impulsive at critical moments.

Xue Li looked at him and advised, "We want to keep a low profile, but our strength does not allow it. Don't worry, it's not a big deal. If the village aunties want to introduce you to someone, just mention my name." Anyway, they get along well, and Xue Li is not afraid of other people's gossip, she is a big-hearted person.

Chen Jinghan looked at her in surprise and surprise, "Didn't you say that I was still in the probation period?" Then wouldn't registering your name mean admitting the relationship between the two? He couldn't help but grin.

Xue Li slapped him, "This is called a stopgap measure! Don't be too happy too soon, the probation period I mentioned hasn't ended yet! If you don't perform well, I can also tell others that we broke up."

"No, no, no! I will behave well, I will!" Chen Jinghan wanted to raise his hand and swear. Xue Li finally gave in, how could he let her back down?

Jiang Yu watched the young couple's tricks, shook his head and looked at Fu Biao, "You are offending the villagers like this, aren't you afraid that they will talk nonsense?" It is not a good thing to look down on rural people.

Fu Biao spread his hands. "What am I afraid of? Captain Zhuang has some problems, but for the sake of appearances, he will never allow the villagers to gang up on the educated youth. As long as it doesn't get out of hand, I'm not afraid of minor incidents."

Seeing that they didn't care, Jiang Yu let the matter go.

Only Lin Anna was thinking about the frown on Chen Jinghan's face when he came back.

What should you do when you love someone? Of course, you should help him solve his problems! Lin Anna suddenly had an idea and prepared a big move to resolve the conflict between Chen Jinghan and the villagers. At the same time, she would improve her prestige in the village and let the Chen family see her ability!

Lin Anna did what she said. She quickly wrote a letter to her family and took a leave to go to town the next day.

Everyone else's life went on as usual, except that more and more people in the village said that the educated youth who went to the countryside had bad behavior and were petty bourgeois.

Jiang Yu felt that the gossiping bunch were just jealous. It was clearly someone else's own business, but they had so many opinions.

Xue Li no longer dares to do business with the villagers because the attitudes of the aunties who come to her to exchange cloth have changed.

Some even wanted to get something for nothing, saying that Xue Zhiqing was well-off, so he should just pity them, as his children hadn't changed their clothes for years...

Xue Li was dumbfounded and wanted to retort immediately, "Are you talking like a human being? I'm a businessman, not a philanthropist! Pity you? Then should I pity the whole village? How shameless!"

Xue Li thought someone would speak up for her, but when she saw the others remained silent and just stood there like a piece of wood, she immediately realized that perhaps the others were also trying to take advantage of her.

Xue Li was not a very courageous person to begin with. He was so angry that his face turned red. He threw the cup with a bang and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

It was Chen Jinghan who heard the noise outside and pushed the door open to solve her predicament.

From then on, Xue Li even put away all the snacks she had prepared for the children. Since these villagers were ungrateful and kept asking for more, there was no need for her to feel sorry for those children with parents. Children these days had a hard life anyway, so let them continue to suffer!

The relationship between the small group and the villagers of the construction team suddenly became tense.

Jiang Yu just finished his assigned work every day and never said a word of extra words to the villagers.

Zhuang Shouren witnessed this change, but he did not suppress the rumors in the team. In his opinion, the educated youth had too good a life after going to the countryside, which led to conflicts with the villagers.

Nowadays, being poor is the best evidence of a person's origin, while being rich will arouse the anger of others.

There were many rich people in the village before, so they naturally wouldn't be jealous of others. But now the situation has changed, and the educated youth are still only concerned with their own enjoyment, so they should just take the loss as a lesson.

Anyway, everyone just said a few words and didn't do anything bad against them.
