Chapter 161 Hu Youcai's Plan Begins

Driving on unfamiliar roads, Li Lanhua felt exhilarated, as if she were a great hero who was pioneering new territories.

Back at the brigade, Li Lanhua's mindset was completely different from before she left.

She's a worldly person now, and she won't get caught up in gossip anymore.

She couldn't wait to get her driver's license so she could drive herself to deliver goods.

Li Lanhua got out of the car and waited for He Xiaofeng, Song Meili, and Zhang Bing to check the order list before going home.

After not seeing his wife for many days, Zhang Bing was also a little excited to see her, but as husband and wife, they talked more about their children.

Zhang Bing is a stay-at-home dad who takes care of his child's every need, and he knows his child's behavior very well during this period.

“Chenxi is fine, she just sometimes wants her mom, but she can be comforted and then she’s fine.”

“I left her with my parents. If you want to see the child, go find my mom. She should be taking Chenxi to play under the big tree.”

Li Lanhua felt a surge of joy upon hearing this; the morning sun was what she missed most along the way.

"Thank you for your hard work." Because he insisted on going out, Zhang Bing had to take care of the child alone.

Li Lanhua is not an ungrateful person.

Zhang Bing shook his head; he had already accepted it, Li Lanhua was just that stubborn.

As for taking care of his daughter, he's quite willing.

He is very good at taking care of children, even better than many mothers.

And yet, she once said she wanted a son.

When Li Lanhua returned and saw her mother, she was naturally beaten a few more times and scolded for not knowing how to be a mother.

But she didn't care.

As soon as Zhang Chenxi saw her mother, she reached out her hand and rushed to her.

She was held in Li Lanhua's arms and cried.

"Oh dear, this child doesn't usually cry much."

Upon seeing her mother, the child cried in distress.

Li Lanhua felt so sorry for her, she hugged her and rocked her back and forth: "Don't cry, my sweet baby, Mommy's going home."

Baby Chenxi swayed gently and fell asleep in her mother's arms...

After all the orders from Beicheng were completed, the workshop earned a large sum of money.

Lin Yu thought that Hu Youcai would probably make his move soon.

"Have you talked to your wife yet?" Hu Youcai had heard that Li Dawei had already appeased Xie Xinyu.

The woman and Lin Yu were close, so Lin Yu would definitely not be wary of her, and they could secretly get things done.

Li Dawei swallowed hard: "It was agreed that she originally refused, but I threatened her with the child."

Hu Youcai patted him on the shoulder: "That's right, good brother. After this is all over, the workshop and the brigade will be ours. There's so much money in there, enough for us to live on for the rest of our lives."

Li Dawei was indeed tempted for a moment by the money in those legendary workshops, but thinking of Hu Youcai's character, he felt that he definitely wouldn't benefit from it.

Hu Youcai might even kill someone to silence them.

Besides, Lin Yu had been on guard against Hu Youcai for a long time; that terrifying woman, Li Dawei was afraid of her.

So in the end, he decided to side with Lin Yu and help her deceive Hu Youcai.

Hu Youcai is not his brother; he's a wolf in sheep's clothing. I don't believe he has any good intentions.

...

Xie Xinyu obtained the things Hu Youcai wanted her to put away as planned, and then brought them to Lin Yu.

Upon opening the bag, one finds a precious book, but much of its content has been altered, turning it into reactionary rhetoric, and a badge with its image drawn in black.

Xie Xinyu trembled with fear: "How... how could this be?"

She grew up under the red flag, and seeing them ruin things like this hurt her more than if she were hit.

Moreover, if she were to actually put these things into the workshop and the brigade leader's house, she would definitely kill everyone.

"That Hu Youcai is so vicious!"

Lin Yu put the things back into the bag: "Then let him suffer the consequences."

After leaving the workshop, she put the bag into her spatial storage when no one was around.

Two days later, Hu Youcai arrived with the cabinet committee members.

"Youcai, what are you doing?" An elderly woman from the village boldly asked him when she encountered a group of menacing-looking people.

"We received a report that the captain's family has reactionary tendencies, so we came to investigate."

Upon hearing this, the old woman was so frightened that her teeth chattered. "You're so talented! You... you mustn't be talking nonsense."

Hu Youcai waved his hand: "Whether he's lying or not, we'll find out once we investigate. Don't cover for him just because he's the captain."

...

Lin Yu knew as soon as Hu Youcai and his men entered the brigade.

She waited for him at home, wanting to see what he was up to.

"Hey, wait for me, young and old men of the Lin family."

The Lin family is on high alert today. Ever since they heard about this from Lin Yu, the family has decided to face it together.

However, since we didn't notify the girl who's going to high school, there's no need to affect her studies.

Lin Laosan leaned against the door: "Hu Youcai, what brings you to our house?"

"Third Uncle, my brothers in the cabinet committee heard that someone reported the captain, so we came to investigate."

Lin Laosan rolled his eyes: "Just because someone reports you, you think you can investigate? Do you think you can just decide to investigate the brigade leader's house like that?"

Hu Youcai listened as if it were a joke; what was the point of his dying struggle?

"Third Uncle, that's not how it works. Since someone has reported us, we have to clear the captain's name, don't we?"

"Alright, Third Uncle, move aside, we're going in."

Hu Youcai pushed past Lin Laosan and led his men inside.

Lin Laosan's eyes were dark and unfathomable as he stared at his back as if he were looking at a dead man.

Lin Yu crossed her arms: "How do you want to investigate?"

"Hey, isn't this Lin Yu? You're not going to work today? Are you waiting for your brother at home?"

Lin Yu sneered, "A clown."

He kicked it, startling everyone on the cabinet committee.

Hu Youcai was unexpectedly kicked to the ground by her, and he was furious. He pointed at her:

"You brat, how dare you hit someone in front of so many people?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "What? You think I'm afraid of you? Go ahead and sue me."

Before he could even file a complaint, Lin Yu was determined to bring him to justice.

The cabinet committee members stood menacingly in front of Lin Yu: "Little girl, don't be too arrogant. Once we find the evidence, you'll be going in..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yu grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up: "What? Are you going to arrest me?"

The group was all startled. Hu Youcai hadn't told them that the girl in this family was so strong.

Based on this, it seems that none of them could beat her.

Seeing that things had reached a stalemate, Hu Youcai rolled his eyes and shouted:

"Captain, you can't show favoritism to your niece! She dared to hit one of the brothers from the Cabinet Committee. Shouldn't she be punished properly?"

Captain Lin, with a cold face, ignored him and said to Lin Yu, "Xiao Yu, put this comrade down."

Lin Yu said "Oh," threw the person to the ground, and patted non-existent dust off her hands:

"Anyone else want to fight?"

The cabinet members shook their heads: "We're not here to fight." They were just used to bullying others and thought Lin Yu was easy to bully.
