Chapter 294 Min Xing's Atonement

Chapter 296 Min Hang's Atonement

Bai Hui had only been in the countryside for a few days, and she hadn't even recognized everyone in the educated youth dormitory. However, she had heard plenty of sarcastic remarks like this.

Bai Hui's originally gloomy face immediately showed her grievance, and she held up her palm, which was covered in blisters.

"I'm sorry everyone. My hands are hurting too much. I'll have to trouble you all for these two days. Once my hands are better, I'll definitely make up for the work I haven't done."

As Bai Hui spoke, she handed the pastries that had been returned by the Ye family to Liu Dandan, her voice weak.

"Comrade Liu Dandan, these are pastries bought for everyone, as compensation for your hard work these past few days."

Bai Hui had already intended to compensate everyone in the educated youth dormitory. She couldn't leave here anytime soon, so she wanted to get along well with them.

For trivial matters and people that could be solved with a small gain, she wouldn't waste her energy dealing with them.

Bai Hui's actions left Liu Dandan speechless, and she even felt ashamed of her own pettiness. This person was clearly not someone who would take advantage.

"Since Comrade Bai Hui is facing difficulties, we should all show a spirit of unity and friendship to help comrades through hardship."

As the leader of the educated youth dormitory, Zhang Aiguo wanted all the educated youths to be united and obedient. If no one caused trouble, it would be easier for him to manage. Otherwise, the constant bickering gave him a headache.

"That's right, if Comrade Bai Hui has difficulties, we should help her. Stop making those sour remarks; they're unpleasant to hear."

Chen Mo also spoke up. He couldn't stand seeing young girls cry. Were these minor issues worth all the fuss?

Many of the educated youths were swayed by a few packets of pastries. These pastries required coupons, and they hadn't had them in a long time.

Only Gao Jiaojiao was unhappy. She was already the best off among the educated youths. But after Bai Hui arrived, whether in terms of appearance or clothing, she completely outshone Gao Jiaojiao, making it clear that she came from a very good background.

Now, she could casually hand out pastries, and her personality was also likable. Such a Bai Hui made Gao Jiaojiao very jealous and hateful.

"Hmph, I don't care for it."

Gao Jiaojiao looked at the few pastries distributed to her and turned to leave. She wasn't someone who couldn't afford them.

Bai Hui didn't take people like Gao Jiaojiao seriously. In fact, she didn't even consider the people in the educated youth dormitory as part of her plan; they were just dispensable individuals.

Shang Wenqi saw Wei Tianming immediately give the pastries he received to Liu Dandan. She quickly lowered her eyes, not wanting anyone to see the emotion in them.

Zhao Ling no longer spoke much with the people in the educated youth dormitory. She already had a goal to live a better life and didn't need to pretend anymore.

Wrapping the pastries in a handkerchief, she went out. She was going to force Ji Mingliang to marry her. Even if Ji Mingliang was a rascal, it was better than struggling alone.

Wang Zhenli's legs could now bear weight, but she needed crutches. Because she couldn't help Gao Jiaojiao with work, she had been abandoned.

Now, not only could she not earn work points, but she also had no money in her pocket. Her family hadn't written to her in a long time. Once the current grain ran out, she wouldn't even have the ability to buy more. Her future was bleak.

Wang Zhenli found Bai Hui very dazzling. Why were the differences between them so vast that she couldn't accept it?

As for the new educated youths, apart from Bai Hui being more noticeable, the situation of the others was still unclear. Most of them were quiet, but the difficult living conditions here meant that no one had a smile on their face.

Meanwhile, Min Hang, who lived near the educated youth dormitory, had been like he was recuperating. Every day, apart from treating Xiao Tiantian, he didn't leave his house.

In fact, Min Hang was afraid of seeing Zi Yisheng, and even more so of the look in Zi Yisheng's eyes. He regretted the lost friendship even more, and every day he thought about his mistakes.

"Young Master, the medicinal herbs that Miss Ye ordered will arrive today. Do you need me to go to the county to pick them up and deliver them to Miss Ye?"

Min Hang paused in his work of organizing herbs and then nodded.

"Go. Make sure your attitude is good."

Min De, standing beside Min Hang, felt indignant on behalf of his young master. He could have simply ignored everything and offended no one, but now he offended one person after another, gaining no favor from either side.

"Yes, I have already instructed our people. No one will dare to cause trouble."

Min Hang thought of Han Yuyan, who was abroad.

"How has Han Yuyan been lately?"

"Not good. He gets angry easily. They say he smashes things every day after drinking."

"Mm, tell our people to stop watching him. He's smashing his own things and ruining his own life anyway. I've already repaid what I owed him. Now, I just want to stay in Bai Rong Village and pay off my debts."

"But the family is very unhappy about you not returning home. They even sent word that if you don't go back, they will disown you."

Min Hang sneered, his expression unreadable.

"I never relied on the Min family. We have food, drink, and money. Why should I work for them? Send word back that the Min family can act as if I don't exist."

Min Hang put down the herbs he was holding and looked in the direction of the Ye family, his eyes darting around.

"Send Miss Ye a list of the newly harvested medicinal herbs this year. Tell her she can take whatever she likes. Whether I can be forgiven still depends on her. She is Zi Yisheng's treasure, so we must respect her."

Min De beside him also chuckled. Indeed, she was a treasure. When he wandered around the village, he had seen Zi Shao fawning over that stunning girl countless times.

"I hope Miss Ye will be happy when she sees the herbs today, so that Young Master Zi won't be too angry."

Min Hang shook his head. He understood his long-time friend too well. He was a man of his word. But it was okay; he was prepared to spend his entire life making amends for this friendship, just to get forgiveness.

In a courtyard not far away, they were also discussing Ye Shengge.

"Isn't it time for a consultation tomorrow?"

If Ming Hui couldn't see Young Master Shang's intentions now, he would truly be foolish. However, he felt a little contempt for his young master; coveting someone else's wife was immoral.

"Miss Ye sent word that she will see the patient five days after the herbs arrive. So, Young Master, don't hold your breath these few days."

Shang Shaoyan shot Ming Hui a sideways glance. Why did he find these words a little unpleasant to hear?

"What, have you been with Ouyang for a few days and are ready to defect?"

Ming Hui was so scared that he quickly leaned forward to appease him. He had his opinions, but he would never defect.

"Of course not. I just feel that Miss Ye is already taken. If Young Master wants to get married, perhaps he should consider the ladies the Madam has chosen for you; they are all very good."

Shang Shaoyan snorted and slapped Ming Hui.

"Do you think so little of your young master? I appreciate Miss Ye, but I wouldn't go interfering. Can't I admire a flower that already has an owner? What if, by treating me, she sees my good qualities? Your young master is not bad either."

"Young Master is not bad, but Young Master Zi is not bad either. Haven't you seen how Young Master Zi dotes on Miss Ye at home? He wishes he could feed her himself."
