Chapter 165 The Foodstuff Squad is embroiled in numerous lawsuits.

Another day has passed.

Wang Yuqing and Ji Xuening went to Ji Zhenzhu's house together, which greatly frightened the Jia family.

Fortunately, they didn't hit Ji Zhenzhu these past two days; in fact, they even coaxed her. Ji Zhenzhu also truthfully told Wang Yuqing, "Yuqing, I'm fine. They didn't hit me or scold me."

When she saw Ji Xuening arrive, she was surprised and lowered her head in shame, not daring to look up at him.

Ji Xuening didn't say a word of blame to her, but looked at Ji Zhenzhu with eyes full of heartache and called out, "Sister."

Ji Zhenzhu couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

Ji Xuening appears mature and composed, but he actually has a volatile temper. Of course, it was the Jia family that crossed his line, and he angrily overturned the table in front of Jia Shan, Jia Min, and Sun Guizhi.

The three of them were so frightened that they trembled.

Ji Xuening's face was flushed with anger as she warned them, "If you bully my sister again, I'll tear your roof off too! The Ji family isn't so easy to bully!"

Previously, the fact that Ji Zhenzhu was beaten was kept from Ji Xuening. In fact, the Jia family knew a little about Ji Xuening's temperament. They only beat Ji Zhenzhu without restraint because they were afraid that Ji Zhenzhu would be too embarrassed to go back and complain.

Now that the matter has been exposed, and Ji Xuening has caused trouble again, they have to keep a low profile.

Ji Zhenzhu felt ashamed, but more than that, she felt warm inside. She regretted not listening to Grandma Ji and Ji Xuening's advice and blindly marrying Jia Min.

Even now, with life going on like this, I still rely on my family for support.

She has truly let her family down!

When Wang Yuqing and Ji Xuening left, Ji Zhenzhu pleaded with them, "Please don't tell Grandma about this, okay?"

They both agreed.

Wang Yuqing thought that Ji Zhenzhu's matter only helped her temporarily. To get her out of trouble, she could only get a divorce. But Ji Zhenzhu was a native of this era and might not be able to accept a divorce. In addition, the Jia family would not agree.

Therefore, further planning is needed.

Because she had taken two days off, she spent the next ten days or so at the non-staple food team.

The old Party Secretary was right last time; even a small food processing team like ours has its share of minor disputes.

It's either you arguing with me or I arguing with you; all sorts of conflicts, big and small, are left for Wang Yuqing to judge and settle.

Fortunately, Tang Wan, Chen E, and Lei Yongxia, who were close to her, didn't make any mistakes; it was mostly Cao Huan who made the mistakes.

Today, Cao Huan went to see Ji Xuening again, asking him to come over and take a look at his pigs, saying that they hadn't been eating much for the past few days.

Ji Xuening couldn't find the time.

Cao Huan blocked his way: "Can you do me a favor? I'm busy today, but tomorrow morning, noon, or evening are all fine. You're the militia company commander, and you used to be a soldier, right? How can you not help?"

Lei Yongxia overheard this, rolled her eyes, and said bluntly, "He's not a veterinarian, why do you keep going to him? Is your family short of money to hire a veterinarian?"

After Ji Xuening left.

Cao Huan and Lei Yongxia got into an argument.

Cao Huan, naturally unable to out-argue Lei Yongxia, took the initiative and pulled Lei Yongxia's hair, and the two began to wrestle.

Chen E happened to be passing by. Despite their usual animosity, Chen E was the first to rush up and help Lei Yongxia this time.

The two men pinned Cao Huan to the ground and beat him into submission.

Wang Yuqing had only had a moment of peace before another lawsuit was about to be heard. All three people were at fault, so each of them had their work points for the day deducted.

Lei Yongxia was very righteous. She said, "This has nothing to do with this old woman. If you have to deduct points, deduct them all from me. Deduct two days' worth of my work points."

Upon hearing this, Chen E thought to herself that this Lei woman was quite loyal. She stepped forward and said, "Deduct it from my account. I did hit Cao Huan. I've disliked her for a long time."

Lei Yongxia said, "No, deduct it from mine, deduct it all from mine."

Chen E said, "No, just deduct it from mine."

As they talked, tears welled up in their eyes.

With their hair all messy, they had a heartwarming sisterly moment here. They used to dislike each other, but now they only have eyes for each other and hearts for each other.

In the end, Wang Yuqing deducted one day's work points from everyone.

Cao Huan was furious and indignant. After all, he had been beaten by two people, his face was scratched, his clothes were torn, and his whole body ached.

Although she started it, she didn't think she had done anything wrong.

He felt that Ji Xuening, as the militia company commander of the brigade, had an obligation to help him look after the pigs.

Why did Lei Yongxia step forward to stop it? What business is it of hers? Why is she meddling?

She knew that Tang Wan, Chen E, Lei Yongxia, Chen Xiang and Wang Yuqing had a good relationship, so she could only reluctantly say to Zhao Sufeng, Hua Yan and Li Xiuer that Wang Yuqing was biased.

The old Party Secretary came in person and told Wang Yuqing to manage the non-staple food team well. He also said that the recent quarrels and arguments between them had spread, and many people were laughing at them.

Who would spread this around for no reason?

Tang Wan said, "It must be Cao Huan herself. She's been getting very close to Hua Gui lately."

She guessed right. Hua Gui had always disliked Wang Yuqing and was even more envious of her non-staple food team. She was hoping to make a big scene and disband the team.

Envious of the large number of people in the non-staple food team, everyone spread the word, saying, "Have you heard? The people in that non-staple food team don't get along and they fight all the time. How can they possibly keep going like this?"

This news thrilled Yuan Fang, Liu Li, Shi Feng, and others, who all said, "It'll be disbanded sooner or later."

When it came time to settle wages at the end of the month, something else happened to the non-staple food team.

This time, Wang Yuqing saw Cao Huan reach into the pot, pick up a snail, put it in his mouth and suck it out. After sucking hard, he threw it back into the pot and continued to stir-fry it.

She stepped forward and scolded, "Cao Huan, what are you doing? This is so unhygienic! What have I told you before? You threw back the snails you ate. How are the other customers supposed to eat them?"

Cao Huan remained unperturbed, nonchalantly saying, "What's the big deal? My mouth isn't poisonous. Besides, how could those people not know they were buying snails?"

Wang Yuqing said angrily, "You have to have a conscience when doing business."

Cao Huan put down the spatula, having held back for a long time, and said angrily, "Captain, who are you calling heartless? You're making a mountain out of a molehill. I just tasted it, didn't I? Don't you taste the food when you cook at home?"

Wang Yuqing's gaze was icy: "Even if I taste the food I cook at home, I would never throw the food back into the pot after eating it. It's disgusting. I have that much basic decency. Besides, those are family members. We're selling this to customers. How can you be so unhygienic?"

Cao Huan chuckled and muttered to himself, "Tsk tsk, city people are just different, so cute and clean."

After saying that, she looked at Wang Yuqing and said, "We are all from the countryside, farmers, and none of us are as particular as you."

Wang Yuqing had never liked Cao Huan from the beginning. He was always causing trouble, and now she loathed him even more. She said, "It's not that farmers are uncivilized, but that you, as a farmer, are uncivilized. Don't you dare insult the other kind and cultured farmers."

After saying that, she asked Cao Huan to scoop up the whole pot of snails and eat them all herself.

Although Cao Huan had just been rebuffed, he instantly felt better: "Are you sure?"

Wang Yuqing added, "The cost of this pot of snails will be deducted from your wages tonight. In addition, all your work points for today will be canceled, and you are not allowed to go out with the others to sell snails for a week."

Cao Huan's eyes widened immediately.

She felt that she usually tolerated things very much just because Wang Yuqing was the team leader, and the other team members all flattered her, but this time she couldn't stand it anymore.

She jumped up and started cursing Wang Yuqing, hurling all sorts of nasty insults at her.

Wang Yuqing was not one to be trifled with. She stepped forward and slapped him twice, saying, "Don't you want this face of yours anymore?"
