Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 651 World 111

What could be more exciting than this fight between two villages right now?

Yinyin and Di Heping originally just went out to make up the numbers, but they didn't expect to see a lot of teenagers of the same age.

"Uncle, where are we going?"

“Let’s go to the Qingshui River,” Uncle Yinyin chuckled. “I heard that the pig feed grows well by the river there, so we’re all going to gather pig feed.”

His siblings exchanged knowing glances and smiled similarly.

"That's right, we went to collect pig feed."

As they spoke, several of them actually went back and brought their baskets and sickles from home, making the group look quite organized.

Well, with so many teenagers together, nothing bad can happen, so Yinyin and her brother simply took out two baskets as well.

Although the pigs raised in the village belong to the collective, the pig feed is counted as work points.

A group of children, carrying baskets on their backs, walked towards the Qingshui River, talking and singing all the way.

Of course, before reaching Qingshui River, they didn't forget to actually fill their baskets with pig feed.

When they arrived at their destination, Yinyin could see the two groups of people facing off from afar.

The brigade leader and the brigade secretary both came, and two village cadres were also called to the center.

Yinyin and the others were separated by a river and couldn't hear what the people were saying, but it was still quite interesting to watch as a silent film.

After a while, people who had seen them came from the other side.

Yin Yin knew this girl; she was a girl from Yuejin Village who had married into Xiahe Village. She was also the daughter of Di Shengli's maternal uncle, so both Yin Yin and Di Heping had to call her their cousin.

Aunt Di looked around and asked, "Why did you come all this way to gather pig feed?"

My uncle chuckled and leaned closer, saying, "We were just cutting pig feed when we suddenly noticed a lot of people, so we came to check it out."

"Cousin, what's going on? Why is everyone carrying weapons? Even the brigade commander and his men are here?"

Aunt Di glared at him, annoyed: "You're still trying to fool me in front of me."

However, she also explained what happened to the children present in a few words.

"Qinghe Village had previously agreed not to do anything to block the water again, but later they secretly blocked half of the water."

“We had some in our village, and we wanted to give the brigade leader face, so we didn’t cause any trouble. Who knew they would get bolder and bolder, building a dam out of tree branches and insisting that it was built by a beaver.”

"Beaver?" my uncle said. "Where would we get beavers around here?"

“That’s right,” Aunt Di replied. “If they had admitted it themselves, at least they would have been honest. But with lies like this, the whole village might as well be called the Village of Lies.”

“Auntie,” Yin Yin called out, “we don’t have beavers here, so who came up with this excuse?”

Aunt Di thought for a moment: "It seems to be a female educated youth. In Qinghe Village, she's called something like Feng Zhiqing."

Feng, the educated youth?

This surname is not common; among the educated youth in their area, only Feng Mingyue has the surname Feng.

Yinyin didn't name her, but some people in the village remembered her.

"Could it be Comrade Feng Mingyue, whom Qian and Zhao, the educated youth, often talk about?"

“Hey, how did you know?” Aunt Di clapped her hands. “It seems to be that name. That’s what I’ve heard people call her.”

The young men and women of Yuejin Village looked at each other, and finally, Aunt Di slapped Uncle Di on the back to find out the reason.

"Really?" Aunt Di thought for a moment. "That Feng Zhiqing is indeed beautiful, gentle and delicate, and she looks very different from our country girls."

"But those Zhao and Qian educated youths went too far. They were dating Chunni'er and Guifen, and even used the excuse of repaying a debt of gratitude to chop firewood and deliver food to other girls."

"He's keeping the girls in our village hanging on while he's trying to woo other girls!"

"No, wait for me to go and say hello. I'll go back with you. We need to give them a good talking-to."

As Aunt Di turned to leave, Yin Yin reacted quickly and followed.

"Aunt, I'll go with you."

She whispered, "I want to get closer and see what's going on."

“I’m going too,” my uncle said, following beside me. “We’re already on the other side of the river. It would be so impolite of me not to go and say hello to our relatives.”

Aunt Di said irritably, "So now you remember you have relatives in Xiahe Village?"

Seeing her uncle smiling apologetically, Aunt Di didn't chase him away, and led him and Yinyin back home.

As soon as we arrived at Xiahe Village, my uncle slipped into the crowd like a slippery eel.

Aunt Di said, "Don't worry about him, he won't suffer any losses."

Yinyin nodded; she definitely believed him. Although this uncle's surname wasn't Di, he was always sweet-talking and could call anyone a brother. He would climb the social ladder by following the lead of his close friends and address them by the most intimate terms.

Although he seemed a bit too slick to outsiders, he was efficient in his work, didn't cause trouble for others, and was usually sweet-talking, so the villagers accepted his behavior and treated him as a respectable junior.

It's fair to say that this uncle has an exceptional talent and emotional intelligence in interpersonal relationships, something that even Yin Yin finds hard to match.

You can see from the incident between Di Shulan and Liu Laosan that Yinyin's family are basically straightforward people who act only for their own comfort and don't care what others say.

Even the most educated woman in the family, Jiang Xianjun, wouldn't really care about other people's opinions every day.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Jiang Xianjun, who was originally said to be in poor health, was able to live more and more comfortably and was even able to go out and do some clerical work to earn work points.

Yinyin was led to her husband's house by her cousin Di. She greeted them obediently and then heard her cousin Di tell her about going back to her parents' home with Yinyin and the others later.

Di's mother-in-law was not very happy, but Di didn't care whether she agreed or not, she just looked at her husband.

Unlike Liu Laosan, whose husband only cared about his own mother's feelings, Aunt Di's husband asked, "Has something happened?"

When it came to the girls' reputation, Aunt Di lowered her voice and said, "Chunni and Guifen have something they want me to advise them on. I'll go back and take a look. I'll be back first thing tomorrow morning so I won't miss work."

Her husband said, "It's too dangerous for you to go to work early in the morning. After you finish here, I'll go back to your parents' house with you, and we'll come back together tomorrow morning."

“Okay,” said Aunt Di, whose family had no children and had locked the door before leaving, so she was naturally happy for her husband to accompany her back.

The young couple discussed it and the husband immediately told his mother himself, without having to go through Aunt Di's mouth.

Yinyin saw this and whispered in her cousin Di's ear, "Cousin, your husband treats you so well."

Aunt Di immediately broke into a smile, a hint of smugness in her expression.

These days, it's incredibly hard to find a husband who can handle mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships well and knows how to care for his wife; naturally, she should be proud of herself.
