"Come on, Chengzi, it's still early for dinner, come back to the brigade headquarters with me and chat for a while."

Li Xiangyang had made up his mind to get along well with Chen Cheng, not to mention that Xiao Chengzi said he wanted to settle down in their village.

Just the skill of Xiao Chengzi in slaughtering pigs completely impressed him, and he couldn't help but swear in his heart that he must win this man over.

Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Chen Cheng was even a little scared. He felt that he was just a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, and that he had no good intentions.

That feeling of being plotted against just now must have come from here!

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Seeing Li Xiangyang smiling like a chrysanthemum, Chen Cheng asked with gritted teeth.

What should I do? I suddenly want to escape...

Shengsheng is really something. He didn’t even bother to take me with him when he left.

How could Li Xiangyang let him go? He took him to the brigade headquarters without saying anything.

"Well, I have something to tell you!"

Chen Cheng had no choice but to follow him. At this time, Li Fugui and Li Zhenguo came out of the pigpen. When they saw that the village chief was taking Chen Cheng away again, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Fugui suddenly felt a little gloating. Based on his understanding of the old man, he could easily guess that Old Chen was bound to be in trouble. He couldn't help but say to Li Zhenguo next to him:

"Zhenguo, your father's old illness must have recurred."

Li Zhenguo nodded hurriedly: "I think so too!"

He dared to say that in this village, Brother Fugui must be the one who understood his father best, and even he, his own son, had to stand behind him.

"Why don't you go and take a look?"

Li Fugui waved his hand: "I would never join in the fun, even if you kill me."

If you don't go, nothing will happen, but if you go, you will definitely get into trouble.

Didn’t the village chief always say, “A friend of mine would rather die than let me die…”

——————————————

On the other side, when Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling were walking back with the pig eggs, they happened to pass by Wang Jinxing and Sun Xiaomei's house.

Their two families were neighbors, separated only by a wall, and they often got together to gossip about the villagers.

Most of the gossip in the village comes from these two people. They are the real peace team, but they are two rotten apples.

But today! They were among the people who fell into the dung heap, and now they are shivering on the kang after taking a bath!

It was so cold. It was really cold to take a shower at home in the middle of winter. They were shivering and cursing the person who had pushed them into the cesspool today.

They were so far away from the pit at the time, it was impossible for them to fall in on their own.

You don't need to ask to know that someone must have pushed them, but as for who... I really don't know~

"Damn it, don't let me know who did it, or I'll skin her alive!"

In fact, she had always suspected in her heart that it was Lu Wensheng who pushed her, because at such a long distance, no one else could do it except Lu Wensheng.

But because she had no evidence, she didn't dare to say it.

It would be fine if she admitted it, but what if she didn't? Given Lu Yanwang's temperament, he would definitely skin her alive.

However, not long after, someone slammed the door of Sun Xiaomei's house, and there were intermittent shouting in between:

"Is anyone home? Sun Xiaomei, Sun Xiaomei, is anyone home?"

Sun Xiaomei I didn't want to talk in bed, but I heard the knocking on the door outside getting louder and louder, and the other sounds in between also became more numerous and louder.

At first, Sun Xiaomei thought someone was trying to break into her house to start a fight. Without saying a word, she picked up her broom and walked out.

How could she tolerate this bullying even at her doorstep? According to her personality, she definitely couldn't.

Die!

————————————————

The people knocking on the door outside the house were the same group of people who had rescued people from the cesspool today. There were both men and women, and they were knocking on the door in various ways.

The team members went to rescue the person just for the sake of the two eggs. Now that the person has been rescued and brought home, they have to come and get their reward.

Seeing that there was something fun to watch, Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling were in no hurry to go home. They squatted under the old crooked tree, eating melon seeds and commenting on who cursed the dirtiest.

"Wait a minute, we've already formed a special team to deal with that. If anyone needs a mouthpiece, we'll bring them over. We'll give them two eggs after they've scolded us. I guarantee they'll feel great when they scold us!"

Lu Wensheng was eating melon seeds while fiddling with Shen Lingling.

Shen Lingling paused while eating melon seeds as she spoke:

"You have a lot of ideas..."

Let’s get back to the topic!

Everyone knocked on the door for a while, but there was no movement from inside. The aunt in the lead looked up at the sky and told her husband:

"We can't go on like this. I'll knock on Sun Xiaomei's door, and you take people to knock on Wang Jinxing's door, so that we don't have to delay the voluntary work and lose work points."

The person who was speaking was the daughter-in-law of the village elder, Mr. Li. Because Mr. Li was old, he had more prestige in the village.

As his daughter-in-law, Aunt Wu also spoke with confidence.

The people who were knocking on the door frantically thought what she said made sense, so they sent a few more people to knock on the door of Wang Jinxing's house next door.

"Yes, yes, Aunt Wu's method is the best. We still have things from these two houses to collect. Let's collect the eggs quickly and get back to work."

"That's right. That's ten eggs in total. A hen can't lay ten eggs even if it works itself to death in a day. They're enough to eat for a long time. It would be nice if we could have more of these good things in the future."

The "good thing" they were talking about was what happened in the morning when they fished those five gossipers out of the cesspool.
