Zheng Xu was extremely dissatisfied with Li Lide. Hearing Li Lide trying to get close to him made him feel uncomfortable: "What happened?"

"The pigs in the pigpen got sick, so I went to ask Bai Jiaojiao for help. Guess what she said?"

Li Lide wanted to complain to Zhenxi, but Zheng Xu stopped him, looked at him coldly, as if to say that he deserved it.

Li Lide wasn't oblivious to others' cues, so he changed his tune, saying, "Alright, I won't talk to you about anything else. She's demanding that I agree to write a letter of praise for Shen Heng, and you have to be there before she'll go save that pig!"

Zheng Xu then realized why Li Lide was in such a hurry to pull him away.

Zheng Xu felt very comfortable knowing that Bai Jiaojiao trusted him so much.

He had indeed put a lot of effort into raising the pigs in the village, and it was also for the purpose of finding a spouse in the village, so he didn't hesitate and quickly followed Li Lide to Bai Jiaojiao's house.

Since Zheng Xu had arrived, Bai Jiaojiao immediately agreed to go with Shen Heng to check on the pigsty, a contrast that made Li Lide feel quite embarrassed.

Zheng Xu no longer wants to maintain a superficial relationship with Li Lide. This time, he went to study and felt that his thinking had improved a lot. Although his previous indulgence of Li Lide maintained the stability of Shili Village, it was very detrimental to the village's development.

It's best to keep a respectful distance from comrades like Li Lide in the future.

Bai Jiaojiao went to the pigsty, and she discovered the problem as soon as she entered.

These past few days, Li Lide has been treating these pigs like dirt, taking meticulous care of them. He discussed with Lao Xu and arbitrarily changed the pig feed ratio, resulting in nutritional imbalance and decreased immunity.

Bai Jiaojiao glanced at the pig feed that Lao Xu hadn't yet fed the pigs and shook her head.

However, pigs eat almost anything, so the problem shouldn't be so serious as to be caused by their diet. The root cause lies in their drinking water.

Yu Wenli was probably slacking off, or perhaps under Li Lide's guidance, he was focusing his energy on other things. The water in the sink looked like it hadn't been changed for days, and there were even shriveled chaff floating in it.

If the water isn't clean, the pigs can forget about living well.

In addition, the weather has been getting cooler lately, with frequent light rain and a chilly breeze, which has caused these pigs to catch colds.

This is a minor matter; just give her some medicine. However, pregnant sows require more meticulous care, and only experienced people know the intricacies involved.

"Heng and I are going to the veterinary station. Village chief, go back and write a letter of commendation. Remember to show it to the brigade leader when you're done."

Bai Jiaojiao made her distrust of Li Lide in front of Zheng Xu. Li Lide felt his head throb and his face was slapped.

"Didn't the village chief go to the veterinary station to get medicine?"

Shen Heng rode his bicycle with Bai Jiaojiao on the back, asking as he went.

These past two days, watching Li Lide, that old bastard, get thoroughly scolded by his wife, Shen Heng felt quite pleased.

"I guess the veterinary station was afraid to give the medicine because the sow had piglets with her."

Bai Jiaojiao's reasoning was very simple, but Li Lide was just a clueless fool who pretended to understand.

With Bai Jiaojiao's intervention, the pigs improved the next day. Li Lide was overjoyed, and when the brigade read the letter of commendation to her and Shen Heng, there was a certain sincerity in it.

"Why do you have to drag me into this? I didn't do anything."

Shen Heng felt a little ashamed of this honor, especially since he didn't really care about it in the first place.

"Didn't we agree to try our best to get some worker-peasant-soldier college student spots later?"

Shen Heng smiled and leaned his head closer: "So what are you going to do? If there's only one spot, are you going to go yourself, or are you going to let Brother Heng go?"

Shen Heng was vying for Bai Jiaojiao's favor, implying that he wanted to know his exact place in Bai Jiaojiao's heart.

Bai Jiaojiao pinched Shen Heng's cheek: "Of course I took the exam myself."

Bai Jiaojiao smiled radiantly. Shen Heng took her hand that was pinching his face and enveloped it completely in his large palm: "Where can you take the exam now? They've stopped allowing it for a long time."

"You can take the exam in two more years."

How did you know?

Bai Jiaojiao casually said, "Yu Wenli told me that. Didn't he say that I could go back to the city? I asked him, and he said that the college entrance examination would be reinstated in two years."

Shen Heng deeply despises Yu Wenli, and he would never go to Yu Wenli to confirm this.

Sure enough, when Yu Wenli's name was mentioned, Shen Heng didn't ask any more questions: "Don't think I'm bragging, but with the little knowledge you've taught me these past few days, I think I can pass the exam too."

"Really?" Bai Jiaojiao feigned disbelief.

"You don't believe me? You're getting bolder and bolder." Shen Heng raised an eyebrow, pulled Bai Jiaojiao into his arms, and tickled her.

Bai Jiaojiao smiled and begged for mercy, tears streaming down her face, before hugging Shen Heng's waist and pleading for him to let her go: "Brother Heng, I believe you, I believe you, okay?"

The fact that Shen Heng achieved so much in his previous life shows that he was indeed a smart man. If Shen Heng said it was simple, then it might really be simple.

But she said, "We haven't started high school yet; those are all junior high."

"Is junior high not enough? I've only used a few days and I've learned what others have studied for several years."

"Then I'll give you a test when I have time."

"Test me?"

"Um."

"If I do well on the test, will I get a reward?"

Shen Heng caressed Bai Jiaojiao's waist, his meaning clear.

Bai Jiaojiao glared at Chen Heng: "I'll give you an extra five yuan a month, but don't think about anything else! If you fail your exams, I'll spank you!"

He's already gone to so many different ways to torment her, what more does he want?

Who knows what outrageous things Shen Heng might do if she agrees to the reward and lets her go?

"Hey? Heng-ge, what are you doing!"
