Chapter 478 Retrieving objects from the air
In the afternoon, everyone else at the educated youth site went to work, but Zheng Pengcheng lay on the bed, not moving.
He had been lying in bed since lunch, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and had been thinking about what he would do if something happened at home. After thinking it over, he couldn't find a good solution.
Staying in the countryside for the rest of his life was out of the question; he was bound to escape from here.
If the educated youth who went to the countryside wanted to leave the countryside, they had only two options: find a job or join the army.
If something happened at home, then there would be problems with his political review and he would definitely not be able to join the army, so he would have to go to the city to find a job.
But it's not easy to find a job in the city where everyone is employed.
If it was in Beijing or somewhere within the influence of his Zheng family, it would be fine. Although something happened to the Zheng family, it would be relatively easy to find those students and old friends who had received favors from his family and get a job.
But his family had no staff in Linshan Town, and the position of director of the Revolutionary Committee that he had previously prepared for was also ruined, so he had no way to find a job here.
But if we look for a job somewhere else, it will be even more troublesome. We have to arrange for him to return to the city first, and then find him a job. Those are two different things.
Those students and old friends were originally tied to the Zheng family because of interests. If something happened to his family, he was not sure that those people would do so much for him.
If it was a job that was not presentable to them, they might just give it to him, but if they had to find a way to get him back to the city and give him a job, they would not do it.
The more he thought about it, the more confused Zheng Pengcheng felt about his future. He didn't know how things could have changed so drastically in just over two months.
If I had not gone to the countryside, it would have been better if I had joined the army directly.
Although if something happened at home while he was in the army, he might be dismissed because of his family connections, but the Zheng family's connections were all in the army, so there was a good chance he could be protected.
As long as I can find some ways to make some contributions, with my abilities, I will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the army.
How did I end up like this?
"It's all Zhou Mingxuan's fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come here to work in the countryside.
If it weren't for the Zhou family's relentless pressure, the Zheng family wouldn't be in this situation now, and I would still be the glorious young master of the Zheng family." Zheng Pengcheng punched the kang under him and stood up.
This action of his almost scared Liu Jingxue, who was eating fruit and watching a TV show while monitoring his situation, to choke.
Rolling her eyes, Liu Jingxue said unhappily, "Is this guy crazy? Did he forget that it was the Zheng family who signed him up for Zhou Mingxuan's job in the countryside?
Although it was Mr. Zhou who schemed against the Zheng family and asked them to sign up, it was they who took the initiative to fall into the trap.
Besides, it wasn't the Zhou family who asked him to follow Zhou Mingxuan here. It was they who asked him to follow Zhou Mingxuan with the intention of harming Zhou Mingxuan.
Now that something has happened, they are putting all the blame on Zhou Mingxuan."
On second thought, it didn't seem wrong for Zheng to blame Zhou Mingxuan. After all, Zhou Mingxuan's coming to the Red Star Production Team was planned long ago and arranged by the Zheng family.
If he had not followed Zhou Mingxuan here and discovered me and had ill intentions towards me, I would not have punished him. Through him, I would not have cursed the Zheng family, leading to a series of bad things happening to the Zheng family.
It was also because Zhou Mingxuan used the medicine he provided to find out from him what the Zheng family had done and told him about it, that the Zheng family was unable to succeed in turning the situation around today.
"I didn't expect that I played such a big role in this. I didn't do anything." Liu Jingxue couldn't help but feel a little complacent.
Zheng Pengcheng continued to talk to himself, "Zhou Mingxuan, it's all your fault. If that's the case, don't blame me for being cruel."
Having said that, Zheng Pengcheng got off the kang, took out the locked box from the closet, unlocked it, and took out a small porcelain bottle that looked familiar to Liu Jingxue.
Liu Jingxue slapped her forehead in annoyance, "I was wondering if I forgot something, it turned out to be this.
Didn’t I say before that I would find out what’s in this porcelain bottle? How come I forgot about it these past few days?”
"It's all Zheng Pengcheng's fault. He hasn't done anything weird these days and he hasn't played with the porcelain vase much, so I forgot about it." Liu Jingxue made excuses for herself.
The next second, she began to reflect again, "I have seen a victory these days, and I have become a little too proud of myself. I must not make the same mistake again in the future."
Liu Jingxue was thinking in her heart that Zheng Pengcheng had just threatened to deal with Zhou Mingxuan, but the next second he took out the bottle. It was obvious that he was going to use the contents of the bottle to deal with Zhou Mingxuan.
“It seems that we need to find a chance to get the porcelain bottle out and find out what’s inside.
Only by figuring this out can we know what Zheng Pengcheng might do next."
Now that she had made up her mind, Liu Jingxue planned to take action as soon as possible to find out what was in the porcelain bottle.
She just didn't believe that Mr. Zheng would stay with the porcelain vase and not leave.
Liu Jingxue originally planned to take action tonight, but she didn't expect Zheng Pengcheng to provide her with the opportunity in the afternoon.
At about 3:00 p.m., Liu Jingxue's consciousness scanned that Zheng Pengcheng had left the educated youth camp and entered the mountain with an axe, apparently to chop wood. He did not bring the porcelain bottle with him, but kept it in the locked box hidden in the closet.
Liu Jingxue walked out of the yard, locked the door, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, she used invisibility and walked towards the educated youth point.
There was no one at the educated youth site at that time, but the gate was locked. Liu Jingxue climbed over the wall into the yard and came to the door of Zheng Pengcheng's room.
Zhou Mingxuan had said before that Zheng Pengcheng would usually leave some marks when he went out to prevent someone from breaking into his house when he was away.
Liu Jingxue had no intention of picking the lock to get in. She had the space and Tuanzi with her. Even if she didn't go into the house, as long as she was within 20 meters of the items, she could put the items into the space through air.
"Tuanzi, did you see the bottle I told you about before?"
"Master, I have scanned it."
"Can you leave the porcelain bottle alone and just take some of the contents into the space?
I'm worried that Mr. Zheng has also left a mark on the porcelain vase, and if I move it, he might find out."
"Master, this is no problem.
I have already scanned it. The porcelain bottle contains medicine powder, not a lot. I only put a little bit in it, so he shouldn't notice it."
"Okay, go ahead and tell me when you're done and we'll leave."
After a while, Tuanzi replied, "Master, it has been put into the space."
Seeing that she had obtained the things, Liu Jingxue quickly turned around and left the educated youth point, and found a remote place to enter the space.
