Lu Wanqing ignored Li Fang because she was indeed a little tired. Especially seeing Lin Ye's sullen face and bad mood, she felt the same way and didn't know how to comfort him.

Actually, once the person is found, she can slowly help treat him. Even if he goes mad, she can cure him. The only fear is that the person is not actually dead, and Lin Baoguo has chosen not to come back.

Based on the current investigation results, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

If that's really the case, Lin Ye will find it very difficult to face such a father. You can imagine how complicated his feelings are right now.

If Lin Baoguo really did start another family outside, it would be better if he were dead.

That evening, Lu Wanqing couldn't help but tell Lin Ye her thoughts. Lin Ye hugged her and pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "Let's let things take their course from now on! We also need to be prepared for all kinds of things. It's already not easy for Mom to recover to this point. We can't let her suffer any more shocks."

"Okay, even if we hear news about Dad from now on, we won't let Mom go. I didn't know any better today, and I almost caused something to happen to Mom." Lu Wanqing pressed her face against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

In his previous life, Elaine Chao's death dealt him a heavy blow. In this life, he is determined to protect her and make everyone live happily together.

Lin Ye gratefully touched her smooth arm, a warm feeling flowing through his heart. Such an understanding wife was now sleeping so obediently next to him. With such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?

When he rolled over and pinned her down, capturing her lips in his mouth, Lu Wanqing didn't remain docile; instead, she pushed against his chest forcefully.

"Again? Didn't you come once before? You're such a jerk."

"Honey, it's because you look like a ripe peach, so delicious."

Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back; the wild and untamed movements in the forest continued until midnight.

The next day, while the two were still in bed, Snowball started sounding the alarm in the yard: "Master, master, someone's visiting. Two men, one of them is Yu Guanghui, and the other, let me think, seems to be Wang Guangming."

After moving, Lin Ye asked the village carpenter to make a doghouse for it, and it slept in the yard, just like an ordinary dog, guarding the house.

Upon hearing Xueqiu's voice, Lu Wanqing nudged Lin Ye, and the two quickly put on their clothes.

It was just that the curtains blocked out too much light, and it was a cloudy day, so Lin Ye was also a bit sleepy.

However, after checking the time, he was still a little annoyed. "It's only seven o'clock! Who's disturbing my sleep so early!"

Lu Wanqing knew who it was, but she couldn't tell him. She only said, "Maybe he was afraid you wouldn't be able to find him at work, so he came a little early."

She was right. Yesterday, on his first day in office, Wang Guangming held a meeting with several village cadres until very late, and got a clear understanding of the situation in Shengli Brigade.

I heard that Lin Ye's sweet potatoes are big and sweet, and his rice yield is twice that of the team, so I thought I would ask him to share his experience.

Lin Ye got up, opened the courtyard gate, and invited the two of them in.

Yu Guanghui chuckled and said, "I used to come here to work, but things have changed so much. Now I'm just dropping by."

Lu Wanqing then came out of the house, greeting him with a smile, "Secretary Yu, what brings you here?"

She didn't greet Wang Guangming immediately, guessing that he was the new brigade leader, and didn't show excessive familiarity.

Yu Guanghui hurriedly introduced, "This is the newly appointed captain. He knows that Lin Ye is skilled in farming, so he came here specifically to ask for advice."

Lin Ye scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed. "Let's go inside. It's foggy and humid outside. I just planted randomly, it's nothing special."

Wang Guangming didn't mind revealing that he knew Lin Ye and his wife, and generously expressed his gratitude to Lu Wanqing on behalf of his wife.

"How are you feeling, sister-in-law? We heard you saved my brother-in-law, and we haven't thanked you yet!" Lu Wanqing asked in return.

Yu Guanghui immediately understood. So these people knew each other. He had just given them a proper introduction. However, he didn't reveal this and instead steered the conversation towards farming.

Lin Ye modestly replied, "As for those lands on the riverbank, I planted them step by step. If I had to say anything extra, it would be the fertilizer I made according to my wife's method."

Lu Wanqing poured tea for the two of them and added, "The compost I made is highly nutritious and very helpful in improving the soil."

Hearing them say that, Wang Guangming became very interested in that fertilizer and couldn't wait to go and see it.

Lin Ye had to go to school, so the important task of taking Wang Guangming to the old house by the river was handed over to Lu Wanqing.

After breakfast, Lu Wanqing, holding Zhao Xiaolan's hand and carrying Xueqiu, went to the brigade headquarters to find Wang Guangming.

Wang Guangming was very attentive to the team's work. While eating breakfast, he listened to Yang Hui report on the team's financial situation. When he saw Lu Wanqing arrive, he put down his bowl, wiped his mouth, and followed her out.

At the educated youth settlement not far away, Li Yulan had just gotten up and washed up when she saw the new team leader walking past the door with Lu Wanqing, chatting and laughing.

"This Lu Wanqing is really something. She's only been in office for a day and she's already hooked up with Captain Wang." Li Yulan rolled her eyes at their retreating figures.

Back then, Lu Wanqing forced her and Xu Ying to repay the money, which infuriated her and she has held a grudge against Lu Wanqing ever since.

Lu Wanqing was exceptionally lucky. Everyone thought that she, a pampered city youth sent to the countryside, would suffer in the countryside. But half a year passed and she hadn't been seen working in the fields once. She was even more healthy and fair-skinned.

Isn't she just relying on her husband and mother-in-law to make money? Using her looks to please others can't last forever; she'll get what's coming to her sooner or later!

Turning back into the house, she saw traces of Xu Ying's past life and couldn't help but feel a bit mocking. Xu Ying and Zhou Ling were two useless people. They had gone to so much trouble, but they hadn't even scratched Lu Wanqing's surface. Did she really have to take matters into her own hands?

She combed her hair in front of the mirror, looking at her rough, dark skin, her eyes filled with venom...

Over there, Lu Wanqing came to the riverside cottage again. Although only a short time had passed, it felt like the place had become extremely desolate.

The locust tree leaves in the yard were thick and scattered on the ground, and no one swept them up. The open-air stove was covered with a layer of dust, and no one wiped it clean.

Lu Wanqing went to the far west end of the courtyard and used a bamboo broom to sweep away a layer of leaves, revealing the black soil underneath.

"This is the fertilizer I compost; the darker it is, the more nutritious it is," Lu Wanqing explained.

Wang Guangming picked up a piece of black soil, crushed it into powder in his hand, and nodded repeatedly: "It's really good, it's worth promoting."

The group went to check on their private plot on the riverbank and discovered that the winter vegetables that Lin Ye had planted were growing very well and were ready to eat.

Meanwhile, He Shujuan's land next door was also planted with vegetables, but they were scattered and sparse, with most of them failing to survive, and those that did survive were tiny. It was such a waste of so many seedlings.

Wang Guangming quickly discovered two key points; this must be the magic of Lu Wanqing's fertilizer!

A few people were chatting at the edge of the field when He Shujuan walked over carrying a hoe.

Upon seeing Wang Guangming, his deeply lined face immediately erupted in a wail.
