"When did our village become so rich?" Aunt Chen asked, snapping out of her daze.

Party Secretary Qin, "..."

The village really didn't have any money; the rent from the mudflats during the Spring Festival was all distributed as dividends.

Aunt Huang said, "It's not that the village is rich; it's probably a donation from some foreign businessman."

She recalled how Secretary Qin had looked at Grandma earlier, and she had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

It was probably donated by Atai's adopted son.

Aunt Chen swallowed hard, staring at Secretary Qin speechlessly.

She really didn't know that the old Party Secretary had this ability.

A gust of wind blew by, and the mango trees outside rustled.

Several leaves drifted down and danced in the air, like dancers swaying gracefully on a stage.

Aunt Chen watched Secretary Qin's departing figure, lost in thought.

From beginning to end, I never heard Secretary Qin say whether it was true or not; he just kept laughing.

"Auntie, there's a lucky draw at the electronics store on Dragon Boat Festival. Anyone who spends 50 yuan or more can enter. Didn't you want to buy a refrigerator? You can take advantage of the promotion and maybe you'll win a big prize," Lin Ziyan said with a smile.

The meat dumplings she made were the same size as the ones her grandmother made; she didn't make any extra-large ones.

Aunt Chen and Aunt Huang, on the other hand, carried very large bags.

“Okay, we’ll go together then. Er Gouzi just happened to want a radio,” Aunt Huang replied casually.

Aunt Chen nodded. "What are the prizes for the raffle?"

The chubby girl was equally curious, and the three of them looked at Lin Ziyan together.

They weren't very interested in things like eggs and rice.

"The biggest prize in the electronics store will be revealed later; it's a secret for now."

The aunties can spread the word in the village. Villagers who participate in the activity without buying anything will receive extra prizes—ducks, chickens, pork, and even candy.

"They go there just to create a lively atmosphere and add some foot traffic to the electronics store," Lin Ziyan continued, tossing another triangular rice dumpling into the basket.

She then took off her apron, deciding she wouldn't wrap any more.

Fangjie will be coming to her house in a little while to discuss the details of the event.

They also give holiday benefits to the store employees.

"I'll go to the store tonight to chat and tell them about the promotion," Aunt Chen said with a smile.

The chubby girl looked up at her and her lips twitched.

Lately, my mother has been going out almost all the time with her rice bowl, chatting and eating with people. She knows everything that's going on in the village.

The sound of cicadas could be heard outside, growing louder as the bamboo swayed.

It wasn't the hottest time of day yet, but by noon, the vegetables in the garden were all wilted by the sun.

At this moment, several women are watering the vegetables in the garden.

Li Zhaodi wore a straw hat and covered her face, leaving only her eyes visible.

If you look closely, you can see that her eye sockets are all bruised.

“Wei Er’s family, your vegetables grow well even without watering.”

"It's so green." An auntie next to me was watering her plants, so I started a conversation with her.

Li Zhaodi said, "Li Liu's family, even if you praise my vegetables for growing well, I won't let you pick them to take home and eat. I'm going to pick them all to sell for money."

The aunt was stunned for a long time. She hadn't been back to the village for a long time and didn't know about the Wei family.

Her face turned red instantly after being rebuked by Li Zhaodi.

She didn't plan to go back to Guangzhou to work this time. She heard there were factories in the village and it wouldn't be hard to find a job nearby.

The vegetables in the garden were just planted, and they've wilted after being exposed to the sun like this.

The two vegetable plots were next to each other, and the contrast was quite obvious, so she just said that casually.

"What, you're speechless now that I've hit the nail on the head?"

"Pah! You don't even deserve to eat the vegetables I grow..." Li Zhaodi cursed, pulling at the wound on her lip, and quickly covered it.

Li Liu's wife was dumbfounded when she saw her like that; she had never seen such a unreasonable person before.

Before she could even react, Li Zhaodi walked over carrying a bucket of urine.

A strong smell of urine hit her, and Li Liu's wife felt her stomach churning and quickly backed away.

But Li Zhaodi was not someone to be trifled with; she poured urine directly onto the vegetable patch, splashing it onto Li Liu's wife's shoes.

Grandma Li happened to see this, so she dropped her bucket and kicked over Li Zhaodi's red bucket.

“You bullied my daughter-in-law, see how I beat you up, you little brat…” Granny Li picked up a carrying pole, ready to strike.

Li Zhaodi hurriedly retreated, and the cloth covering her was lifted by the wind, revealing her bruised and swollen face.

Li Liu's wife was stunned; her pupils contracted.

Good heavens, this must have been Wei Er's doing! His face is swollen like a steamed bun, and his eyes are bloodshot.

An auntie nearby, not wanting to miss out on the fun, stepped forward and added fuel to the fire.

"Li Zhaodi, last night was quite intense, your face must have been pressed against the bed, right?"

"His knees must be bruised and black. I didn't expect Wei Er to be so strong."

"The bed frame is probably cracked from all the shaking."

Everyone chimed in with their own sarcastic remarks, both overt and covert.

This vegetable garden used to be managed by Aunt Qin, and they suffered a lot of losses because of it.

Li Zhaodi would often take advantage of the darkness and when no one was around to pick vegetables from other people's fields, as if the whole place belonged to her.

Now that they finally see her like this, all the pent-up frustration in their hearts suddenly surfaced.

Li Liu's wife had never heard such lewd words before, and she quickly backed away.

Granny Li said, "Wei Er is indeed very strong, and he uses all of that strength to beat his wife."

Li Zhaodi raised her hand to cover her face, and upon hearing what she said, she jumped up and tried to pinch Granny Li.

But she had already been punched and kicked last night, and her whole body ached, so her reactions weren't very sharp.

Granny Li put down her carrying pole and reached out to pinch Li Zhaodi's waist.

When Aunt Qin was still alive, she didn't hold a grudge against Li Zhaodi. After all, while Granny Li considered herself shrewish, she wasn't as daring as Aunt Qin.

"You old hag, what do you have to say about my family?"
