Quick Wear: Cannon fodder fly bravely, good fortune will always follow

Chapter 266 The Female Cannon Fodder Who Falsely Claims Favors in the Historical Literature 7

In addition, they can also choose to marry a soldier. When his rank is promoted, he will be able to join the army in the near future. In this way, they naturally don’t have to do farm work all day.

Lu Jianjun is the only soldier in Xinghua Village. After getting married, he can follow the army. For this reason, Lu Jianjun is very popular among the female educated youth. Now they are all talking about Zhao Xue's good luck with envy.

Some people in the crowd disagreed with this.

"What kind of luck is that? It can only be said that Zhao Zhiqing is willing to help others. That's why the two of them are destined to meet! Otherwise, if it were the rest of you, you would probably be the first to run away when you see someone falling into the water. Not everyone can save someone!"

"That's true. Besides, Zhao Zhiqing didn't tell anyone that he saved someone. If we hadn't been to the marriage ceremony, I guess everyone would still be kept in the dark!"

Zhao Xue smiled shyly, "What a coincidence! If I hadn't heard that day that Brother Jianjun was forced to ask for a high bride price and was bullied at the last minute, I would have gone there because I couldn't stand it anymore. Otherwise, I might not have gone there either."

"Speaking of which, I've heard about that too. The Jiang family is really too much. Even our educated youth didn't ask for such a high bride price!"

"That's right, she's asking for too much. She's a country girl who doesn't have anything, yet she dares to ask for such a high bride price!"

"Zhao Zhiqing, it's a good thing you rushed over, otherwise Jiang Erya would have taken advantage of you!"

"Yes, Zhao Zhiqing, you saved Comrade Lu. It was said that a life-saving favor should be repaid with one's own body. You two are meant to be together. Maybe that Jiang Erya was just too greedy and deliberately stole the credit from you!"

"Who knows? If Zhao Zhiqing hadn't heard it, she would have been considered to have claimed Zhao Zhiqing's life-saving grace and married him. Wouldn't that be stepping on others to get promoted?"

"Really? I thought the villagers were simple and honest, but there are people like this!"

Several unrestrained voices continued to ring out. They didn't know Jiang Erya and they had never met her during their work, so naturally they spoke without any scruples.

Jiang Yueshu: "......"

Don’t they know that walls have ears?

And he said it in front of her, very loudly!

I don't know where they are, so I'm just sitting here bored and taking pictures of them gossiping.

Jiang Yueshu slowly moved behind the group of people, holding a hoe.

"Comrades, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly."

The female educated youth looked at each other, not understanding what this country girl who suddenly appeared meant.

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce myself. I am the Jiang Erya you all are talking about!"

When the female educated youth heard this, their faces turned red as if they had been caught, and they stammered and were unable to speak.

There was an impatient female educated youth who glanced at the other comrades who dared not say a word and said, "What? You can do it but we can't say it?"

She questioned her with a haughty look on her face, thinking that this country girl had no vision at all. She did something bad and not only did she not feel guilty, but she even dared to come to her directly. How thick-skinned was she?

Although she never wanted to bother with such people, now that this has happened to her, how could she let it go?

"What did I do? Since you know it so clearly, just tell me everything in front of me." Jiang Yueshu looked at the female educated youth Sun Man with an indifferent expression.

Seeing that this person still dared to continue to provoke her, Sun Man immediately exposed her flaws one by one without hesitation.

"You, you are only interested in profit. When the Lu family came to pick up the bride, you suddenly changed your mind and asked for a high price for the bride price. You also claimed favors and took credit for the work. It was obviously not you who saved Comrade Lu, but you took on the responsibility so that Comrade Lu would marry you!" Sun Many righteously accused Jiang Yueshu.

"Who told you that? I can't believe you claim to be a cultured person, but you always listen to one side and believe it! I don't think you would trust me. Since you are so upset for Comrade Lu, why don't you let Comrade Lu, who has been at the scene, explain it in person."

Jiang Yueshu's expression remained unchanged. She glanced at Lu Jianjun who had gathered around her and spoke.

"Comrade Lu, please speak a fair word. I really didn't expect that these highly educated and intelligent people would believe the rumors and put the blame on me. If I don't explain it clearly, I'm afraid everyone in Xinghua Village will think the same way. Isn't this forcing me to die?"

Lu Jianjun already felt guilty towards Jiang Erya because of his momentary misunderstanding. When he heard Sun Man speak just now, he wanted to help explain. After hearing Jiang Yueshu say the somewhat extreme words "go to hell", he hurried forward to explain.

"Comrade, you misunderstood! Comrade Jiang did not do the things you just mentioned. Asking for a betrothal gift... was proposed by the elders of the Jiang family. As for taking credit for the achievements, Comrade Jiang did not do it. My family made a mistake with the person, so we asked someone to come to our house to propose marriage."

Sun Man listened to Lu Jianjun's serious explanation in a dumbfounded manner. She was slapped in the face by one of the main culprits. She felt guilty and ashamed.

Feeling the gazes of the people around her, she felt like a thorn in her back, a fishbone stuck in her throat, and was sitting on pins and needles. It was as if her mouth was not controlled by her brain and she simply refused to admit it.

"I was wrong, but that was the second thing I was wrong about. As for the first thing, you said it was her family elders who proposed it, but how do you prove it? Maybe it was because she asked that her family elders called for a high price. Otherwise, isn't this a deliberate act of not wanting to get married?"

The Lu family is so well-off, which family wouldn't want to get in? How could they deliberately not want to get married? It must be because Jiang Erya is too greedy.

The more he thought about it, the more believable it seemed. Sun Man even straightened his back, feeling confident.

Lu Jianjun: “…”

Doesn’t the Jiang family want to get married?

No, that’s because I want to marry someone else!

After thinking for such a long time, he also figured out what Jiang Erya's stepmother was planning yesterday. If Zhao Xue had not appeared in time, Liu Qingqing would probably have married into the Lu family.

But at this moment he was speechless. Everyone present knew what happened that day, but how could he explain it clearly? He might as well expose other people's wounds.

"Comrade Sun, you said that I can't prove that it was the elders in my family who suggested it? Then how can you prove that it was not the elders in my family who suggested it? If you say so, then I think your ideological awareness is extremely low. After all, everyone has heard you saying bad things about me behind my back. I think when everyone doesn't know, you often speculate about others like this and put countless hats on others!" Jiang Yueshu asked back.

Sun Man was frightened by Jiang Yueshu's cold eyes. She felt a little flustered and said angrily, "You are talking nonsense! You can't think well of others, so you think that others are the same as you. I have never said anything bad about others."

She felt a little guilty about what she said. It was just a casual remark, and everyone said it. She was dissatisfied with others in her heart, so she naturally said a lot about them.

"Then how do you prove you didn't say that?"

"I, I...why should I prove something I didn't do!" Sun Man said anxiously.

After saying this, she anxiously pulled the female comrades at the educated youth point one by one and kept explaining to them that they should believe her, that she had not done it and that she was not that kind of person at all.

This hesitating and overly anxious look made everyone suspicious and no one expressed their opinion immediately.

"Comrade Sun is so unreasonable. When you criticize me, you ask me to produce evidence, but when it's your turn, you ask me why I should produce evidence? This really broadens my horizons as a country girl!"

Sun Man was so anxious that she was about to cry and didn't dare to say anything. She had just spoken carelessly in her haste, and her relationship with several female comrades at the educated youth point was already in jeopardy. She couldn't mess with this country girl again!

I never thought she was so eloquent!

"Although I haven't been to school much, I also know that the great man once said that we should talk about reason and facts in everything. You are unreasonable and slander me without any evidence. You clearly didn't see it with your own eyes, but you talk as if you were there. These are the educated youth who went to the countryside to receive rural education! In addition, Zhao Zhiqing has Comrade Lu to help him, but you have been nagging here, saying that we can't let our own affairs hinder the collective affairs. You are really just talking and not doing anything!"

Jiang Yueshu glanced at the educated youth in front of her who all had disdain in their eyes, and said bluntly.

The villagers who had been attracted by the quarrel earlier were seeing the educated youth being humiliated for the first time. They were delighted and immediately joined in.

"I told you, these educated youths always slack off on their work, but once they open their mouths they start talking big!"

"Yes, yes. Since they came here, a lot of progress has been delayed. It's as if they don't know what's going on!"

"Even so, they still look down on us. At least when it comes to farm work, we peasants are much better than them!"

"Arya, I like what you said. Look at them, none of them dare to refute. They must have been right!"

The educated youth who went to the countryside relied on the fact that they came from the city and looked down on these peasants. They spoke in a pretentious manner. As for those who worked on the fields for a living, they couldn't stand seeing them complaining without doing much work, so they had to take away a lot of their food rations.

In short, both sides are fed up with each other and no one likes the other!

Now, seeing that these educated youth were kept silent by the "peasants" they called them, I felt extremely happy.

Even the team leader hiding at the back of the crowd felt extremely relieved. These educated youths really needed a good beating. He was ready to listen to a few more words before asking everyone to disperse. Production progress could not be delayed.

Originally, Zhao Xue just wanted everyone to embarrass Jiang Yueshu, but when she saw that this had caused a fight between the educated youth and the villagers, she knew that things had gotten out of hand, so she immediately stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Comrade Jiang, they just believed the rumors after all, and they didn't do it on purpose. Just explain it clearly, and there's no need for us to be so aggressive!"

When the educated youth heard that this was from their perspective, they immediately shouted, "Yes, we just had a misunderstanding. How can you put all these things on the educated youth?"

"Yes, be merciful when you can. There's no need to be so picky about everything!"

Jiang Yueshu glanced at the captain standing at the back of the crowd and immediately acted as if she was furious.

"Zhao Zhiqing, you clearly know that I didn't do those things, but they said so many things and you didn't say a word. Aren't you waiting for everyone to misunderstand? Now you stand up and speak for them. If you don't want to intervene, then you should stay away from it. They did something wrong, so naturally we have to confront them together to eliminate the misunderstanding. Are you, the educated youth, bullying me just because you have more people?"

Jiang Yueshu's face looked miserable, and her body was shaking violently as if she had suffered a great humiliation. She looked at Zhao Xue with eyes full of grief and indignation.

When Zhao Xue saw Jiang Yueshu pointing her finger at her, she was about to retort, but the next second her eyes blurred and the thin girl who had just shouted in a shrill voice suddenly fell down.

When I looked down, I saw Jiang Erya lying on the ground with her eyes closed, unconscious!

The crowd burst into laughter, and the educated youth hesitated and dared not speak. The team leader watched the man faint, and quickly pushed through the crowd, stepped forward, and checked his breathing with trembling hands.

When he felt a faint breath, he breathed a sigh of relief and glared at the educated youth who were causing trouble.

At his call, some women from the same village came forward, squatted down and gently called Jiang Yueshu's name. They called it several times in a row, but Jiang Yueshu didn't respond at all. The crowd suddenly panicked.

"Quick, go call Doctor Zhang and Jiang Aiguo!"

At the captain's command, someone immediately ran to look for someone.

Zhao Xue was startled by Jiang Yueshu's sudden fainting, and she looked at Jiang Yueshu's face carefully with some suspicion. Could Jiang Erya be pretending? But would a country girl like her really think of pretending to faint?

She looked at it for a while but didn't understand it. After thinking for a while, she whispered to Sun Man beside her nonchalantly, "Is it such a coincidence? She fainted after just one sentence?"

Sun Man's eyes lit up as she listened. She inconspicuously approached the unconscious Jiang Yueshu, ready to test her. If she was really pretending to be unconscious, then she would definitely expose her true identity in front of everyone.

When Sun Man thought about what she was going to do next, she was so excited that her body was shaking. She moved slowly, preparing to step hard on Jiang Erya to see if she was pretending.

Even if it wasn't, stepping on her would still relieve the hatred in my heart.

When she reached Jiang Yueshu, Sun Man glanced around guiltily, and seeing that no one was paying attention, she prepared to act unnoticed. She slowly raised her right foot and made a gesture to move forward.

Just as she was about to step on Jiang Yueshu's right hand, she fell flat on her face with a bang.

Sun Man grimaced as he touched his bruised knee, his guilty conscience instantly turning into raging rage.

Her face flushed to hide her guilt, and she was about to find the culprit to scold him, but the other party started to rebuke her first.

"Sun Zhiqing, are you going to secretly step on Arya?"

The ruffian Cheng Shuo stood there with his hands in his pockets, glaring.

Sun Man's temper died down immediately after being hit on the point. She stammered, "I, I didn't."
