Lin Yan quickly pulled her arm. She was really talking too much. How would this end?

Wu Li, who had been silent the whole time, said, "Yeah, his family can't provide manpower, so when the time comes, Li Mingqing's family won't be able to use the electricity."

"That's right, if you don't put in the effort, it won't work."

"Village chief, you can't be partial to one and treat the other as the same. Just do what needs to be done."

Zhang Cuihua said gloatingly.

The two of them were talking back and forth, waiting to see the joke.

Sun Jiaxue stood there at a loss, then said, "I can go."

Old man Li said, "Your mother and I will do your share, so don't bother with your big belly."

"Whose wife doesn't work when she's pregnant? Working is a form of exercise."

Old Lady Xu took the opportunity to speak up for the Li family and said, "That's different. If something really goes wrong, will you be responsible? Besides, this is Jiaxue's first child, so she doesn't have much experience."

"The sun really rises from the west. This is the Li family's business and has nothing to do with your Zhao family."

"You said it's okay, so why are you so nagging?"

Old Lady Xu and Zhang Cuihua were unwilling to give in to each other.

"Don't think we don't know what you're thinking. The Li family won't recognize your Xu family as their godparents. Forget it. Even if they do, it won't be your family's turn. There are plenty of good families in the village."

"You old fool, my Yaozu is a very promising man."

"You're the only one who can say that my grandson will definitely be more successful than your Yaozu. Look at your child, he's almost one year old, he looks like a newborn, unlike my grandson who is so strong and healthy."

The village chief and the team leader looked at each other.

These old ladies in the village are always restless.

Da Zhu Niang was very happy to see the two fighting, but she still brought the topic back to the topic and said, "Village Chief, the Li family's matter has not been resolved yet."

The village chief saw that everyone was looking at him, and he was afraid that the good things Li Mingqing had done could not be concealed and would be recorded in history.

"Everyone, be quiet. Do you know why our town was the only one that got electricity so quickly out of several other towns?"

No one spoke.

Why? Maybe they are lucky.

He added, "This good thing happened in the village because of Li Mingqing. He paid the town a sum of money out of his own pocket to get the wires. Otherwise, who knows how long it would have taken."

Everyone was stunned when they heard that he actually paid for it out of his own pocket.

At first they didn't believe it, and no one was willing to spend it. Most people spent every penny carefully.

On second thought, if it was Li Mingqing, this story would be believable.

Everyone knew that he was an excellent doctor. Not only did he treat the villagers, but many important people also came to him for treatment. He was definitely not short of money.

Old man Li and old woman Liu never thought that their son had done such a great deed.

Sun Jiaxue also knew why Li Mingqing was so sure that the village would have electricity. It turned out that he donated money.

Zhang Cuihua didn't believe it and asked, "Village Chief, who could you possibly have? Even if Li Mingqing was rich, would he be willing to spend so much money? Are you trying to trick us for the Li family?"

It was too late for Wang Daguo to pull her hand, and he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

The village chief's qualifications, age, seniority and character are there, and this cannot be said casually.

She now regretted speaking so quickly.

Li Mingfu said angrily, "My father has been the village chief for so many years. Don't you guys understand? He cares about the villagers wholeheartedly. Auntie, it's really disheartening for you to say that."

She said awkwardly, "That's not what I meant. I spoke too quickly and didn't mean it."

The village chief said coldly, "If any of you don't believe me, you can go to the town or the county seat and ask. If it weren't for Li Mingqing's money, the village wouldn't know when it would be dark, and no one would have to work at home."

It was supposed to be a good thing, but it turned out like this.

It’s no wonder that the village chief was angry. Some people really don’t know how to appreciate what they have.

The captain said, "A kind word can warm you through the winter, but harsh words can hurt you through the summer. We are all from the same village, and the village chief wants the village to get better and better more than anyone else. Those who have signed up can go away. It's a good thing. What do you think of yourself—"

Many people came up to the Li family and said, "I knew your Ming Qing was a good person."

"Don't leave your name behind when doing good deeds. If the village chief hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known about it."

"You two old people just wait to enjoy your life. Good fortune will come to you."

"That's right, look at your kids and then look at mine, there's really no comparison."

…

Old man Li said, "Let's all go."

After hearing this, the few people who had gathered around left.

On the way home, Yang Daya whispered, "Jiaxue, how much money did Mingqing get?"

"Third sister-in-law, I don't know either."

"No way, it's OK if my parents don't know, but don't you know either?"

"have no idea."

Yang Daya looked as if she was disappointed with her child, "Forget it, just take good care of your baby."

Now the Li family can really walk around the village with impunity.

Very impressive.

When Li Mingqing returned home and saw his family, he was shocked and thought something had happened.

"What's going on? Why are they all here?"

"Ming Qing, did you really donate money to the town for electricity?"

"How did you know this?"

"That's true. The village chief said that today, they almost got into a fight because of work."

Hearing this, Li Mingqing asked, "What's going on?"

"To pull the electricity, you have to touch the tree trunk. To dig the hole, each family should provide one laborer. You and Jiaxue said that no one can do the work. You and I started arguing, and then the village chief said it."

"It's not a big deal, so I didn't say anything."

Yang Daya asked curiously, "How much money did you take?"

"Not much."

She became even more curious, but was tactful enough not to ask any further questions.

Old man Li patted Li Mingqing on the back, his face full of satisfaction and pride.

He has really grown up and can stand on his own.

In the Li family's genealogy, Li Mingqing must be ranked first. In ancient times, this meant bringing honor to the family and standing tall and proud.

Sitting in a high hall, managing the country and benefiting the people.

Old Lady Li said, "Let's go. It's already noon."

After they left, Li Mingqing looked at Sun Jiaxue and said, "I heard from my mother that the scene was a mess. Did you get shoved?"

"No, Second Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law and Mother are standing in front of me."

She felt very warm in her heart and was particularly touched.
