Zhou Guoqing felt angry and wanted to go over and take back his position, but Tiezhu, Huzi and others kept pestering him. Zhou Guoqing tried to break away several times but failed to break away, and finally had to look away with an angry look.

Everyone soon arrived at the abandoned old school, and Huzi let out a roar after seeing the weeds half as tall as a man.

"I haven't been here for several years, but the grass has grown so tall?"

Huzi's home is at the east end of the village, and the abandoned old school is at the west end of the village. In the past few years, the places he went to every day were basically his home and the pig factory. He had not been to the school for a long time.

The people in Daqing were also shocked when they saw the grass queen who was half a person tall. The memories of their childhood suddenly came to their minds.

The school is located in the most remote part of Taohua Village. It is surrounded by woods and only villagers live two streets away.

People rarely come here, and they never imagined that the school where they lived when they were children would now be abandoned and look like this.

"We have almost cleaned the classroom during the day. After clearing the weeds and moving a few tables and stools, the children can come to school."

Jiang Li explained.

Lu Chaoli nodded: "Okay, let's try to get rid of the weeds today and move some tables and chairs over tomorrow morning. I have chalk at home and will bring it to you tomorrow."

"Then let's start working now!"

Daqing spit into the palm of his hand twice, then carried a hoe to the weeds and started weeding. Seeing this, others also took action.

"Then let's go to the classroom first."

Jiang Li and Xu Yuanyuan came here to get brooms, intending to clean up the dust in the classroom.

The crowd was divided into two teams. Jiang Li and three female educated youths went to clean the classroom, while Lu Chaoli and a dozen grown men were weeding in the yard with hoes.

The late summer evening breeze is mixed with a hint of coolness, which makes working less scorching than during the day.

Jiang Li, Xu Yuanyuan and Li Zhixiu had been busy in the classroom all day. It took a lot of effort to clean the spider webs on the roof and corners, and wipe the window glass. Now there is only a layer of dust. The ground.

"Great, with everyone's help, maybe the children can meet us tomorrow!"

Xu Yuanyuan was very excited and started sweeping the floor with much more energy. As she moved, mud and dust flew all over the room.

"Ahem, Yuanyuan, please be gentle."

Jiang Li and Li Zhixiu choked and coughed, covering their mouths and noses.

"Oh, why are you so gray? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please be gentle!"

Xu Yuanyuan raised her head and saw no one before she realized that she had moved too much in excitement, and quickly followed the sound through the dust to find Jiang Li and Li Zhixiu.

When they saw each other's disgraced faces, the three of them laughed, pointed at each other and bent down to laugh.

The laughter of the three people rang in the classroom, and several grown men outside the courtyard also laughed after hearing it.

"What are you laughing at, these three people!"

Zhou Guoqing turned to look at the classroom curiously. When he was about to go to the classroom to find out what was going on, Lin Jiye took his arm.

"Captain, let's not get involved in the conversation between lesbians. Let's mow the weeds quickly and go back as soon as possible."

Lin Jiye also noticed something at this moment. He was afraid that there would be disharmony between the educated youths because of this matter, so he stopped Zhou Guoqing with words.

"Yes, captain, let's work quickly. Finish the work today and the children can go to school tomorrow!"

Xi Qingshan smiled honestly and waved the hoe in his hand even harder.

Zhou Guoqing retracted his steps, rolled his eyes at Lin Jiye displeasedly, and secretly scolded him for meddling in other people's business. After what happened, Zhou Guoqing was not willing to continue weeding next to Lin Jiye, so he went to the other side with the hoe.

Everyone was distributed at both ends of the yard. Daqing led a few people at the east end of the yard, while Lu Chaoli led Tie Zhu and others at the west end of the yard. Zhou Guoqing, who was originally at the east end of the yard, now went to the west end of the yard with a hoe.

Lu Chaoli was talking to Tiezhu and others at this time, and he didn't even notice Zhou Guoqing coming over.

"Great, I didn't expect that this school will be opened again now. When my daughter grows up, she will be sent to the school to be taught by my sister-in-law!"

Tie Zhu had a pleased expression on his face, and he spoke smoothly and spoke out his private address.

Zhao Congwen nodded: "Yes, leave our child in the hands of my sister-in-law, don't worry!"

Lu Chaoli, who was turning his head to talk to Hu Zi, turned his head when he heard what the two said and bumped the iron pillar with his elbow: "Go, go, don't yell, it's not good if Comrade Xiao Jiang hears it!"

Tiezhu and Zhao Congwen covered their mouths and nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

"I know, boss, call me Shunzui!"

There were only a few of them and there were no other people in this area. After Lu Chaoli gave an instruction, he stopped talking about this topic.

"Get to work quickly. I remember that we still have a lot of wooden boards in our pig factory. We will move them over tomorrow and let the children use them as tables."

"I know, boss!"

As they talked, they started weeding again.

Everyone thought that only they heard the words, but they didn't know that Zhou Guoqing, who came from the east end of the courtyard to the west end, also heard it clearly.

It's just that he is short, standing in the grass about half a man's height and only the top of his head is exposed, so no one noticed him.

Zhou Guoqing in the haystack gritted his teeth when he heard what Tiezhu and Zhao Congwen called Jiang Li, and the hand holding the hoe clenched into a fist.

Damn!

What are these people fooling around with!

Comrade Xiao Jiang has nothing to do with Lu Chaoli, why should they call Comrade Xiao Jiang sister-in-law!

Zhou Guoqing was furious, and after hearing Zhao Congwen's next words, he suddenly felt a sense of urgency!

"Boss, hurry up and catch him quickly so we don't have to change his name!"

"I know, I know."

Lu Chaoli responded casually, thinking about when would be the appropriate time to express his feelings to Jiang Li.

"Boss, we are waiting for your good news!"

After listening to what several people said, Zhou Guoqing knew that he could not delay any longer and had to express his feelings to Comrade Xiao Jiang quickly to avoid being beaten first!

With the strength of many people, everyone quickly cleared away the weeds in the yard. After doing so, the abandoned school became tidy again. Apart from the blackening of the wood, it remained the same as in memory.

It was already getting late, and we had to work tomorrow. Everyone said hello to each other and then went home.

Early the next morning, Lu Chaoli had people carry the remaining wooden boards from the pig farm to the school to use as tables for the children. All the children in the village came to the school.

Since there are no books yet, Jiang Li and Xu Yuanyuan had to teach everyone some simple addition, subtraction and pinyin of numbers.

After the school reopened, everything returned to normal and the villagers became more energetic in their work.

That night, while it was cool, the village chief gathered everyone together and said they were going to have a meeting. Lin Jiye and others went there, but Zhou Guoqing was the only one who stayed in the room and started drinking.

Thinking of Jiang Li's attitude towards him these days, Zhou Guoqing narrowed his eyes and made a decision in his heart.
