While Feng Qingqing was in the Provincial Capital treating Qi Huaiyuan, Tian Xingzhu, who was far away at the Lanshan Production Brigade in Nanjiang County, was having a rather difficult time.
Tian Xingzhu had been at the Lanshan Production Brigade for a while. When she first arrived in the countryside, she had plenty of money and food coupons on hand. To ensure her life was comfortable, she spent money lavishly, never caring about mere material possessions. After all, no one knew her family’s situation better than she and her mother did. She knew exactly why her mother had sent her to the countryside, and she knew she wouldn’t be staying for long, which made her even more unrestrained with her spending.
Although Tian Xingzhu lived at the Educated Youth Hostel, most people in the village didn’t know much about her circumstances. However, there are no airtight walls in this world. Between those who had grown slightly closer to the other educated youths and the fact that the Educated Youth Courtyard had been unusually harmonious lately—with the educated youths themselves looking much healthier—curious onlookers only needed to make a few inquiries and do some light observation to figure out the situation.
