Watching Tian Lingling's departing figure, Li Xiyue turned around and went to the pigsty.

Xu Guoqiang and his colleagues from the animal husbandry institute were checking on the sows when they saw Li Xiyue arrive. He asked curiously, "Dr. Li, is there something you need?"

"It's nothing, I just came to check on the sows' mating progress." Li Xiyue walked to the pigpen. "How is it? Did they mate?"

The two piglets were born before the Lunar New Year. The sow had already been slaughtered for meat during the Lunar New Year. The two piglets were raised for a few months and had grown up enough to be bred.

The colleague from the animal husbandry institute shook his head, "Uncertain, let's do it again to be on the safe side."

This time, once it's prepared, there's no need to run back and forth anymore, which saves time and effort.

He then took out medicine from the veterinary medicine box, preparing to feed it to the breeding pigs.

Li Xiyue leaned forward and sniffed. Yes, that's the smell.

After leaving the pigsty, Li Xiyue went to the fields before going up the mountain.

After a busy day, Xu Shanshan finally finished work and dragged her heavy steps toward the educated youth settlement. She hadn't had any stomach pain all day, but her strength was noticeably weaker than usual because of her period.

Suddenly, she noticed someone sneaking towards the village entrance. Upon closer inspection, she recognized Tian Lingling.

Her intuition told her that Tian Lingling must be up to something.

Normally, she would have stayed far away from such a thing, but today, she didn't know where she got the courage, and she actually followed after them.

As darkness fell, Xu Shanshan hid in the shadows and saw Tian Lingling digging something on the only road leading into the village.

What is Tian Lingling doing?

Xu Shanshan hid in the shadows, her palms starting to sweat.

She is timid and sensitive, easily gets nervous, and her palms sweat when she gets nervous.

She dared not make a sound until Tian Lingling entered a nearby ruin. Unable to resist her curiosity, she ran to the front and discovered it was a trap.

She was secretly alarmed. Why would Tian Lingling dig a trap on the road? Who was she trying to harm?

The sound of a bicycle came from not far away, and Xu Shanshan suddenly realized what it was.

Tian Lingling wanted to harm Huang Zhiqing. Huang Zhiqing had been so good to her, and she couldn't just watch him fall into a trap.

She ran forward quickly and stopped Huang Xinrui, who was about to come over. "Huang Zhiqing, don't go over there. Someone wants to harm you."

Tian Lingling, who was hiding in the ruins listening for any noise, finally heard a sound outside. She knew that things had succeeded, so she quickly ran out.

The bicycle lay overturned beside them, its tires still rolling.

The person must have fallen into a trap.

Tian Lingling excitedly ran over to take a look, only to find it empty.

Just as I was wondering where the person had gone, a sudden, sharp pain shot through my neck, and then everything went black as I fell forward.

As night fell, a drunk man staggered home when suddenly a woman ran out from beside him and threw herself into his arms.

Drunkard: "???"

Xu Guoqiang was watching Hu Zi do his homework inside the house, and he was getting really angry at his stupid son. Just then, Huang Xinrui rushed in from outside and shouted in a panic, "Captain, something's happened!"

As darkness fell, Huang Xinrui led a large group of people out of the village.

"What happened? Does anyone know? Please tell me." Wang Cuihua didn't know what had happened. She heard the commotion when she went out to splash water, so she grabbed a basin and followed.

Liu Qingju was also there, holding a cooking spatula in her hand.

Li Xiyue, who had also come to watch the show, was rather speechless. It seemed that wherever there was gossip, these two were sure to be there.

Actually, no one knew anything. They just saw Xu Guoqiang rushing out and guessed that something had happened. They didn't even cook dinner and all came to see what was going on.

The more unclear things were, the more it aroused people's curiosity. Wang Cuihua and the others were itching to find out, and they walked quickly, all eager to get to know the juicy gossip.

Some of them were waving spatulas, some were holding vegetable basins, and some were carrying firewood. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were going to start a brawl.

Xu Guoqiang's face was as dark as the night sky. He walked the fastest, and Xu Yongshun behind him could barely keep up.

As he walked angrily, he suddenly lost his footing and began to fall forward uncontrollably. Just then, he heard Huang Xinrui's warning, "Captain, watch out, there's a pit ahead!"

Xu Guoqiang: "..." Why not wait until he's dead before saying anything?

With a splash, he fell into the pit.

"Captain!"

With everyone working together, they pulled Xu Guoqiang out of the pit like pulling up a radish.
