Chapter 437 Bicycle Controversy
Because she didn't know when Zheng Pengcheng would bring the people from the Revolutionary Committee, Liu Jingxue planned not to enter the space during the day.
There was a lot of food stored in the space warehouse. She took some food out of the warehouse and had lunch.
Now, whenever she was outside, she would release her spiritual sense and naturally discovered the commotion caused by Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao.
Looking at the decision made by the two, Liu Jingxue couldn't help but sigh at their magnanimity.
Even if she was a modern person, she wouldn't take the new bicycle so lightly as to hand it over to other people and let them play with it.
Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao were surrounded by the villagers and did not notice, but Liu Jingxue's spiritual sense saw it clearly. Zheng Pengcheng and Fang Dong were also attracted by the excitement here.
After seeing that the people causing the commotion were Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, and the new bicycles they were holding, Zheng Pengcheng stopped and did not approach them again. Fang Dong also stopped to keep pace with Zheng Pengcheng.
Looking at the two people who were like the moon surrounded by stars, Zheng Pengcheng said something sour, "It's just buying a bicycle, what's there to show off.
In order to win over the hearts of the people, they even handed over bicycles so that the villagers could learn to ride them.
If you are really that generous, you can just give a bicycle to every household in the village."
Even if Fang Dong wanted to please Zheng Pengcheng so that his military career would be more secure, he could not agree with what Zheng Pengcheng had just said.
He laughed dryly and said, "There are so many families in the village, and if each family has one, I'm afraid those two people's financial resources won't allow it.
Besides, they can’t get so many bicycle tickets.
In fact, they were very generous by allowing the villagers to use their new bicycles for learning.
If it were me, and I had just bought a bicycle, I wouldn't let anyone touch it, let alone give it to a novice to practice riding.
If they let me fall, I would be heartbroken."
"Why do you have to talk so much?" Zheng Peng glanced at Fang Dong, threw down these words, but left without looking back.
Fang Dong looked at the bicycles Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao were holding with envy. It would be great if they were his.
He felt a little resentful towards the two people in his heart. It was really something. They didn't buy it earlier or later, but just bought it as soon as they moved out of the educated youth site.
If they had bought it earlier and lived with the educated youth in the same place, he could have asked them to borrow their bicycles to ride.
But now that they have moved out, he has done something wrong to them and feels a little guilty about it, so he doesn't dare to ask to borrow it. As a result, he has no chance to ride the new bike.
Or he could mingle with the villagers and go to their place to ride their bicycles after work. Fang Dong couldn't help but come up with this idea.
However, when he saw Zheng Pengcheng who had not walked far ahead, he immediately gave up the idea.
"Forget it, let's not lose the big picture for the small. Zheng Zhiqing still hasn't given me any definite news. Has he told my family about taking me to join the army?"
Thinking of this, Fang Dong immediately ran after Zheng Pengcheng.
As soon as he arrived next to Zheng Pengcheng, Fang Dong started to complain about Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao.
"These two are too stingy. They didn't buy us bicycles before, but today they bought one right after we moved out of the educated youth camp. It's clear that they don't want us to ask them to borrow one."
"Didn't you just say that they were both very generous? How come you came to your senses now?"
"Hey, didn't you just think clearly for a moment?
I just thought about it carefully and realized that the two of them were on guard against us educated youth."
Zheng Pengcheng nodded with satisfaction, "Not too stupid."
The two returned to the educated youth site, and other educated youth who had gone to work came back one after another. They were all talking about Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao buying new bicycles and generously lending them to the villagers to learn how to ride them.
Fang Dong curled his lips and said, "You guys are so stupid. You're still counting the money after being sold. Don't you think about why these two people bought bicycles today after moving out of the educated youth site?
They are obviously holding back on us, worried that we might buy it too early, and it would be hard for us to refuse them if we ask them to lend it to us.”
Zhou Wenbing defended Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, "Fang Dong, don't talk nonsense. Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing are not that kind of people."
"Then tell me why they didn't buy bicycles before but bought them today."
“Didn’t they have no tickets before?” said Tang Qiangjun.
Fang Dong asked, "Then why are there tickets today?"
Zhang Yingchun couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Didn't you see the packages Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing received a few days ago? This ticket might have been put in the package by their family members and sent to them.
After receiving the package, the two of them had to work every day and didn't go to town, so how could they buy it?
Besides, even if someone already has a ticket but just doesn’t want to buy it, that’s their freedom and none of your business.
If you're jealous of someone's bicycle, just say so, don't be sarcastic."
"Yingchun, you didn't understand. Fang Zhiqing is trying to sow discord between us, Zhou Zhiqing, and Zhao Zhiqing.
He wanted us to think that they didn’t want us to borrow bicycles from them, so they bought them after we moved out of the educated youth camp.” Xia Lan pointed out.
"Ah, Fang Dong, is this what you mean?
I thought you were jealous of them because they bought bicycles and you couldn't afford one yourself, so you were saying these things." Zhang Yingchun said.
Liu Zhaodi, who was picking vegetables outside, said, "If Zhou Zhiqing and his friends really didn't want to lend it to us, that's why they didn't buy the bicycles back earlier, which is normal.
If it were me, and I wanted to buy such an expensive item, I would have to think twice to see if it was really necessary.
Even if I buy it back, I won’t lend it to you if you ask to borrow it.
If you guys break it, I'll be heartbroken.
For some people, even if you force them to pay, they will just refuse to pay.
We can’t sell him to pay off the debt.”
"Liu Zhaodi, you are offending people by saying this.
If you really had a bicycle, we would ask you to lend it to us, but you really wouldn't lend it to us." Tang Qiangjun said.
“If I don’t lend it to you, you won’t be able to pay for it if it breaks.
If I were to lend money, I would only lend it to Zhang Yingchun and Xia Lan, because they are rich and can afford the compensation."
Chen Jiaojiao laughed and said, "You're just dreaming. If even you can afford a bicycle, the two of them would have bought one long ago. Why would they need to lend it to you?"
Zhou Wenbing laughed and said, "I was originally thinking that if I had an emergency, I would borrow their bicycles, but after hearing what Liu Zhiqing said, I decided to give up.
If it breaks, I really can't afford to pay for it.
If I don’t compensate, I’ll feel bad.”
Fang Dong realized that his words not only failed to make everyone hate Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, but instead made him get criticized, so he dared not say anything.
He didn't quite understand why his plan didn't work.
He didn't think about the fact that although he had spent more time with other educated youth than those two people, his relationship with them had always been bad.
After Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao came over, although they mostly stayed together, they did not ignore other people or make enemies with them.
Compared with Fang Dong, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, the two later arrivals, have better relationships with the other educated youths at the educated youth point except Zheng Pengcheng.
Everyone knows that Zheng Pengcheng is not on good terms with Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, and everyone has also seen that Fang Dong has been very close to Zheng Pengcheng during this period.
Everyone unanimously believed that Zheng Pengcheng had asked Fang Dong to say those words today that were intended to sow discord between everyone and Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao.
For this reason, everyone looked down upon Zheng Pengcheng's character even more.
You have to know that Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao always say bad things about Zheng Pengcheng in front of others. They never talk about him behind Zheng Pengcheng's back in front of others.
On the contrary, Zheng Pengcheng often spoke ill of Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao behind their backs.
Now, they even instigated Fang Dong to sow discord between them and those two people. The character of these people was immediately apparent, and everyone became more determined to stay away from Zheng Pengcheng and Fang Dong.
If Zheng Pengcheng knew that Fang Dong's self-willed decision this time had brought about the opposite consequence, he would probably be so frustrated that he would die.
