Chapter 1540: The Li Family’s Traits
After the matter of the wolf pack was solved, the village returned to its usual tranquility. Besides the weather getting colder and the snow falling for several days, the rest of the days were the same as usual.
Six days passed, and the village erupted in chaos at midnight. Under the howling sound of the cold wind and heavy snow, several men went to Han Yuheng’s house.
They knocked on the door while shouting, "Team leader, wake up! Something bad happened!"
Due to their rapid pounding, Han Yuheng woke up, and after putting on his thick cotton-padded jacket, he went out to check the situation.
Opening the gate, he looked at the group of educated youths and asked, "Comrades, it’s not even dawn. What’s going on? Did something happen?"
"Team leader, something bad happened!" one of the educated youths said with a pale face.
Noticing the situation might be bad, he said, "Let’s talk inside."
The group quickly followed him into the house. At this moment, Bai Luyun was woken up by their knocking and came out of the bedroom. "Husband, what’s wrong?"
The educated youths averted their gazes when they saw her half-asleep appearance. Han Yuheng walked over to his wife and said, "Something happened. You go back to sleep. I will go check the situation."
Bai Luyun glanced at the educated youths and said, "Be careful."
After he closed the bedroom door, he poured a cup of hot water for each of them and asked, "What’s going on?"
The educated youths drank the water to warm up their bodies before one of them said, "Team leader, due to the heavy snow these past few days, some roofs of the houses have collapsed."
When he heard this, Han Yuheng was surprised and asked, "Is everyone alright?"
"We managed to escape, but some of the female educated youths were injured. We came here to ask for your help," one of them replied.
Hearing this, Han Yuheng nodded and said, "For now, go find the village elders and ask them to gather the villagers to help. I will find the staff to assist. We have to evacuate everyone and find a safer place first."
"Understood," the educated youths replied.
After they finished the water, they pulled their cotton-padded jackets closer and left to find the village elders. Before leaving, Han Yuheng went to inform his wife so she wouldn’t worry.
In just an hour, everyone in Xie Village, including An Xuyuan, who was injured, learned about what happened.
After taking medicine for one week, his condition had improved and he could use his left arm even if he couldn’t lift heavy things. After putting on his jacket, hat, and scarf, he left the house with a shovel.
Even if they could evacuate the educated youths and let them stay with the villagers for a few days, they couldn’t provide food for them. So, they still had to dig out the snow and retrieve their supplies.
When he arrived at the location of the educated youths’ houses, he saw a group of villagers already busy digging the snow while the production team’s staff were busy discussing with the villagers about finding a temporary place for the educated youths to stay.
As he walked over, he asked, "How is the situation? Was anyone injured?"
Seeing him coming over, the female educated youths’ eyes lit up.
Han Yuheng wiped away the sweat on his forehead as he said, "No one is injured, but the house is unsuitable for living. We’re discussing with the villagers to see if we can find a temporary place for them to stay for a few days while we fix the house."
Hearing this, An Xuyuan thought for a moment and said, "I have two empty rooms in my house. It should be enough for six educated youths. As for the rest of them, how about you ask Li Chenmo? His house has lots of rooms."
When he heard this, Han Yuheng thought for a moment before he said, "I don’t think it will be possible for him to allow the educated youths to stay at his house."
"Why?" An Xuyuan asked in confusion.
From his interaction with Li Chenmo and his brothers, they were generous people and willing to help. Since they were even willing to donate so much food to the brigade, they wouldn’t refuse this small request.
Han Yuheng saw his expression and knew that he didn’t understand the Li family ’s traits.
After considering his words for a moment, he finally said, "Comrade An, you might not know, but the Li family’s men have one main trait."
"What is it?" An Xuyuan asked.
"They are very jealous. So, it’s impossible to let the male educated youths stay at Li Chenmo’s house," Han Yuheng replied matter-of-factly.
"Since that’s the case, then just let the female educated youths stay at his house," An Xuyuan replied.
"That’s even more impossible," Han Yuheng said without hesitation.
Raising his eyebrows, An Xuyuan waited for his explanation.
Leaning closer to him, Han Yuheng added in a hush voice, "It’s because they never let any female get close to them. If they get too close, they will throw them out without hesitation. Rather than taking the risk of someone getting injured, it’s better to find other villagers."
The moment he heard this, An Xuyuan was taken aback and asked, "Is it that bad?"
Han Yuheng nodded and said, "We can ask them to help by donating some food, but asking them to allow the educated youths to stay at their house is impossible."
An Xuyuan went silent for a while before he said, "Then, let’s ask them to help by donating some food. Use that food as compensation for the villagers who agree to let the educated youths stay at their houses."
"Will that do? What if the Li family is unwilling to help?" Han Yuheng asked.
"Don’t worry. I know they will definitely help," An Xuyuan replied firmly.
Since he had said so, Han Yuheng had no objection. He had been discussing this matter with the villagers for almost an hour without any result. If An Xuyuan’s method worked, then that would be a great relief.
