Chapter 27: Slander of Hiding Potatoes in a Back Basket

"Then the people following behind will be in trouble. If they can't pick up all the trash, they won't get any work points. How can this be resolved?"

"Then I'll go first. You guys can chat slowly." An old man ran forward at full speed.

"Stop talking and get to work." An old man with white hair and beard also spoke. Everyone fell silent and walked quickly.

The people who were walking slowly at the back all quickened their pace unconsciously when they heard what was said in front that those who followed Liang Qi would definitely be in trouble.

Although some people didn't say anything, they listened consciously. No one wanted their work points to be affected by the progress of others.

It's like someone wants their life.

From a distance, the dozen or so people ran forward in a large group, raising a cloud of dust.

Many people slowly stopped and wanted to see what was causing so many people to run. Did they pick up gold?

The village party secretary looked at the scene in the distance and said to the village captain, "When did these people love working so much? In the past, the lazy ones would urge the lazy ones to work, and the lazy ones would just stare blankly. Now, is the sun rising from the west?" After saying that, he squinted his single eye and looked at the sun rising high in the east with his face wrinkled like a chrysanthemum.

"I know, I know. The potato field over at Bojiwan belongs to Liang Qi, Sun Huimin, Lao Lan, and Uncle Chen's grandson Xiaowa."

"How do you know?" the village party secretary looked at Li Jishi in front of him.

"One of the people running away is my mother. They are going to Bojiwan to pick potato ribs today." He said while holding back his laughter.

The village party secretary looked at the ten or so people who were running the fastest, and then looked at the people who had stopped to watch the excitement in other places. These cowards who were just watching the excitement and didn't mind the trouble, said directly: "What's going on? Do these people have a day off? At such a critical moment, are they still watching the joke? People are getting divorced, why are you so surprised? Hurry and get to work."

The village chief looked at the men and women in the village and said, "Hurry up and get to work. What are you standing around for? If you can't finish the work today, don't leave."

The roar scared away the timid ones, while the brave ones were ready to go and see what was going on.

Village Party Secretary Li Baogen looked at the village captain Chen Baoxiang and said, "Ahem, you guys come with me to see what's going on. This is really unusual. I haven't seen such enthusiasm in a long time."

The village captain looked at the old secretary and smiled: "Then let's go over and check to see if they are lazy."

How could the village captain not know what Uncle Baogen was thinking?

When the others saw that the village party secretary and the village captain had gone to Bojijiwa, their excitement disappeared and they could only go back to work honestly.

A dozen people rushed to the field and were confused. What did they see? The lady with bound feet who they were talking about worked faster than anyone else.

Some people were dissatisfied and looked around. Someone saw the potatoes in Liang Qi's basket and said, "Everyone, come and see. I told you, she doesn't know how to dig potatoes. She's just wasting such good food."

Liang Qi heard a sound behind him, stopped what he was doing, and turned to look towards the noisy place.

A woman picked up her backpack and dropped it on the ground. The basket rolled a few times and then stopped, and the potatoes inside rolled out.

Liang Qi knew who that was. It was Liu Honghua, the daughter-in-law of the village party secretary's second uncle.

"Look, she's stealing potatoes. No one has any to eat, but she's doing something else. Did she deliberately dig them up and break them, planning to steal them home?" After saying that, she rolled her eyes in Liang Qi's direction and almost spitted.

Everyone watched without agreeing, because Liang Qi was already walking towards them slowly, dragging his hoe with an expressionless face. His eyes looked like he was looking at a dead person, making people too timid to speak.

Some of them loved to jump around, pretending to be calm and glaring at Su Can.

Liang Qi was walking to the front with the hoe in his hand, looking at the backpack in the distance that was full of wet soil from the ground. A clean backpack was getting dirty.

It makes me angry and I want to hit someone.

"Wipe the backpack clean and put it back. I'll give you three seconds, otherwise you will bear all the consequences." Then he started shouting "one,"

"Why should I? It was you who stole the potatoes from the field, and you think you're right. We haven't settled the score with you yet, but you're settling the score with us." The woman was trembling inside, and she was talking about "us" in her words to give herself courage, and she wanted to pull everyone to fight against Liang Qi, this woman.

Looking closely at this woman's eyes, they looked like a man-eating monster, a bottomless abyss, and were terrifying.

But no one else dared to say anything. They all looked at Liang Qi. They felt the woman's majesty without even getting angry from Liang Qi.

"Two." Liang Qi said lightly, and the woman's body shook unconsciously.

"I won't pick it up. You are a thief. What can you do to me?" The woman glanced at the basket, gritted her teeth and refused to move, tears welling up in her eyes.

I'm already weighing whether or not to go.

"One last word. Have you made up your mind? Not picking it up?" Liang Qi said in a flat tone.

Suddenly hearing Liang Qi's voice again, my body trembled, "I..."

"three."

"Woo, woo, I'll pick it up!" When Liang Qi called out three, the woman was already crying out of fear. She quickly ran to pick up the basket and wiped the dirt off the basket with her hands.

Everyone looked at Liu Honghua who was frightened and crying, and dared not say anything, for fear that this woman would swing the hoe at them. Judging from Liang Qi's posture, they would really be beaten if they didn't go.

Someone in the crowd said indignantly, "How dare you scare others? It's obviously you who don't know how to do it. You ruined so many potatoes and put them in your basket. Aren't you stealing?"

Liang Qi stared at the injustice-seeking woman with his dark eyes and said, "Do you know what stealing is? You're giving others such arbitrary definitions. It's not a good sign. Let me teach you what stealing is. Stealing is taking someone's things when they're not aware of it. How can you be so careless as to put it in a backpack without covering it and wait for you to solve the case? How can you be so smart? If you are stupid, do you think others are stupid too?"

"You! You're just making up stories..."

"Don't you treat us as human beings?" Sun Huimin stuck her head out from behind Liang Qi.

Old Man Hu heard Sun Huimin's words from a distance and shouted, "That lame guy can't see that someone as old as me is standing here."

Old Man Hu walked over and looked at the crowd surrounding Liang Qi. He glanced at the five potatoes cut in half on the ground. Why were these people so annoying and making such a fuss? He was digging hard, and just because five potatoes slowed him down, he hadn't gotten angry yet, but these women started clamoring, "You guys are so bored! Didn't you see we're already halfway through the digging? Why are you making such a fuss just because we broke five potatoes? Why don't you just look at the ones in front of you? Go ahead and see if there are any broken ones?"

"We are talking about her hiding potatoes in her backpack." He continued stubbornly.
