Chapter 158 Sitting on the ground, hugging his leg and crying
Reading Settings
The side courtyard is always bustling with laughter and joy. Everyone interacts with each other with sincerity. There are no cunning or mean-spirited tricks, nor any sarcastic or backstabbing.
Every day was filled with joy and harmony, which allowed Xie Weidong to gradually let go of his original personality and return to the way a young man should be.
Now, he can not only confidently exchange goods with his friends, but also freely laugh and play with them.
This feeling of genuine friendship was something he hadn't experienced in the five or six years he'd spent in the countryside.
Fang Meng glanced at Xie Weidong, whose gaze was somewhat vacant but whose lips were unconsciously slightly upturned, and chuckled: "If you don't want to do it, then don't. There's no salary to be earned, and no responsibility that you have to shoulder. Why make things difficult for yourself?"
"Yeah, there are no benefits, only unpleasant things. It's a wonder you were so happy doing it before!" Bai Nuo didn't understand at all.
“Nono is right!” Sun Yuxi, who was determined to follow her friend’s lead, nodded repeatedly and looked at Xie Weidong with a sincere expression, saying from the bottom of her heart, “Xie Zhiqing, you should know that fate is most likely to bully honest people.”
“That’s right!” Bai Nuo looked at Sun Yuxi with a pleased expression, and added, “We must put aside our personal qualities and enjoy a life of immorality. We must refuse to suffer internal strife and just go crazy when something happens.”
Sun Yuxi and Chao Xianhua, with expressions of wanting to join the Party, nodded heavily and said in unison, "Nono is right."
Qin Xuehua stared at her three friends in disbelief, blinked, nodded vigorously, and shouted, "I've learned something!"
Xie Weidong: "I think I've learned something too!"
"Holy crap!" Eugene exclaimed with admiration. "I don't quite understand it, but thinking about it, it feels so good!"
Fang Meng raised his hand and slapped his forehead, letting out a soft sigh: "Damn it, I've corrupted several more."
Bai Nuo grabbed Fang Meng's wrist, pressed his other hand against Fang Meng's forehead, forcefully lifted Fang Meng's head, raised an eyebrow, and asked with a smile, "Second Brother, am I wrong?"
Upon seeing that familiar, gentle smiling face, Fang Meng was instantly roused and nodded without hesitation: "Yes, how could it be wrong? Niu Niu is right, that's what we should do!"
After saying that, Fang Meng looked at Xie Weidong: "Brother, are you going to resign? Jinzi and I will go with you."
"What if the captain disagrees?" Xie Weidong frowned slightly.
Don't let the brigade leader's tall, burly, and rough appearance fool you; he's actually incredibly shrewd (in Northeastern dialect, meaning clever and cunning). This educated youth compound has always been one of the brigade leader's biggest headaches. He trusts himself, the administrator, a lot, so I guess... he won't agree to it easily.
If I quit, the captain will probably have even more headaches in the future, since it seems that the most capable people are all in their side yard.
"What's so difficult about that!" Fang Meng waved his hand casually, as if he were someone who had been through it all.
Fang Meng and his little brat exchanged a glance, smiled slightly, and then looked at Xie Weidong at the same time, saying in unison: "Sit on the ground, hug his leg and cry!"
This interruption caused everyone to forget the original topic about Wang Mudan.
The five men gathered together, stopped doing their work, and began whispering among themselves, plotting how to trick—no, how to persuade the team leader to agree to Xie Weidong's resignation.
In the end, I still think that Fang Meng and Bai Nuo's method was the most effective in dealing with the captain.
After all, judging from Fang Meng and Bai Nuo's appearance, they were the kind of people who were particularly experienced.
Twenty minutes later, next to a haystack not far from the backyard of the brigade leader's house!
"Uncle, I really can't do this anymore. Look at my hair, it's thinning day by day. I'm only twenty-five, I haven't even had a girlfriend or gotten married yet. Can you bear to see me go bald at such a young age?!"
“I can’t control them. They’re always fighting or causing trouble. Now, they even dare to go out for secret rendezvous in the middle of the night. What will outsiders think of the other female educated youth in the educated youth compound? I can’t stand guard at the gate every night, can I? You might as well just kill me!”
"Uncle, please have pity on your nephew. I've been doing this for two years already. If I keep going, you'll probably be sending my nephew off on his own as an old man..."
"Shut the hell up! What nonsense are you spouting in the middle of the night?! And my hair is black, black, not white!!!" Wei Zhongping was so angry that his face turned red and his neck thickened. He gritted his teeth and roared angrily, looking down at Xie Weidong, who was hugging his leg and crying.
Did this child bump into something evil? He's usually such a polite and well-behaved child, how could he suddenly... suddenly go crazy!
