Stop Joking! You Really Quit Your Job to Go Back Home and Farm?

Lin Anshu is an ordinary, lowly office worker. The competition in the company is intense, and the boss loves to fine employees and make empty promises. After working diligently for a whole year, sh...

Chapter 73 Do you know someone behind you?

"What...what should we do?" a policeman asked.

"Why don't you take it back to them and return it?" another person suggested.

"Go ahead."

"No, no, no, I won't go. I'm afraid if I go in, they'll stop me from sitting at the table to eat."

"But to be honest, this dish looks... really delicious."

"It does smell delicious. How about... we try some?"

"Try it, it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, they insisted on giving it to us, so it can't be considered bribery."

"That definitely doesn't count, we didn't take anything."

"Then let's do it as a token of our appreciation. We'll use this chili sauce to sandwich a steamed bun, and then each of us will share half. That way, we won't let their kindness go to waste."

"Yes, yes, I think it's a good idea."

After agreeing on the terms, the police officer who had been given the food placed it on the back seat, picked up a steamed bun, broke it open, and added some chili sauce inside.

"Here you go." He broke off half and gave it to his companion.

"Mmm, smells delicious, it's really tasty."

"Mmm, it was really delicious. It was gone in just two bites."

Half a steamed bun is indeed too little for big guys like them.

It's not even enough to fill a gap between your teeth.

It was quite obvious that the two of them hadn't eaten enough.

"How about we each have another one?"

"I think it's a good idea."

So, for the rest of the time, the two of them squatted in front of the back seat, eating spicy sandwiches with hot and sour bamboo shoots and stir-fried bok choy.

"Hmm, why does this stir-fried bok choy smell so good? Could it be that the chef here is a master chef?"

"It smells so good, so much better than the food in our cafeteria. And this bok choy you mentioned is really fresh and delicious."

"Officers, please have some more if you like."

"The bok choy is grown in the ground. If you two like it, you can buy some to take with you later."

"This is porridge that my mom asked me to bring over. Please try it."

After handing the two bowls of rice through the back window, Lin Anshu turned and left.

"..." The two policemen were caught red-handed.

Awkward, extremely awkward, incredibly awkward.

Forget it, let's just give up.

Since they've already been discovered, what are they still hesitating about?

Let's just eat it all up!

At that moment, the two of them abandoned all restraint and began a fierce battle for food.

Soon, they ate all six steamed buns, one serving of chili sauce, two servings of vegetables, two boiled eggs, and two bowls of rice.

Burp~

Before they knew it, the two of them had eaten too much.

When they got out of the car to return the tableware, the two of them agreed to wash the bowls and chopsticks they had used.

Lin's mother did not allow it.

There's no reason to ask guests to wash the dishes, no matter what.

To ease the awkwardness, one of the police officers offered to buy groceries.

"Officer, I have some bok choy and baby bok choy ripening in my field. Which one do you want?"

"Just so you know, my vegetables aren't cheap, they cost 20 yuan per pound."

"I'll take a pound of both," one of them said.

"Give me two pounds of bok choy, and one pound of leafy greens will do," another person said.

"Okay, wait a moment? I'll go to the field and dig some vegetables for you."

"If you don't mind, I'd like to visit your field."

"I'll go too."

Finally, Lin Anshu, carrying a bamboo basket, walked with two policemen towards her family's vegetable garden.

"Young lady, I heard you quit your job in the big city and came back to farm?"

“Yes. How did you know? And I’m actually quite curious, who gave you that test report?” Lin Anshu asked.

To be honest, she didn't even think of sending the dandelion tea for testing right away.

I don't know who's helping her behind the scenes.

"You didn't go online to see it, did you? The post that exposed you is trending on the local hot search list."

"Anyone on the front lines of watching this drama can see it."

“Your TaoTao shop name is the same as your Douyin name, and people have already posted it.”

"I was just browsing your Douyin (TikTok) on my way here this morning out of boredom, that's how I found out."

"As for the test report, to be honest, we don't know either."

"I had just arrived at my post early in the morning when my supervisor handed me this and told me to make a trip to it."

"Young lady, tell me honestly, do you know anyone backing you?" one of the policemen asked in a low voice.

"Huh? I don't know him." Lin Anshu looked completely bewildered.

She's just a farmer's daughter, what kind of people could she possibly know?

"That's possible because your client saw injustice and did it to help you."

"But to be fair, we didn't come to you because someone was pressuring us."

“Even if no one had brought the test report, we were still planning to come and find you this morning to understand the situation,” another police officer explained earnestly.

"Yes, I understand."

"Besides these two vegetables, what else did you grow? Isn't farming hard work?"

"..."

The three of them walked and talked along the way.

Lin Anshu also took the opportunity to introduce them to her vegetable garden, paddy fields, ponds, and hilltops.

Upon arriving at her destination, she squatted down and began digging for vegetables.

Looking at the vast expanse of green before them, the two policemen couldn't resist squatting down to help dig up the vegetables.

"These vegetables look so fresh and beautiful, they really haven't been sprayed with pesticides?"

"Absolutely not. I'll find an agency to have my vegetables tested later."

"I can guarantee that the vegetables in my garden are absolutely natural, organic, pollution-free, and free of pesticide residues."
