When Sugar heard that they were looking for Director Wei, his eyes lit up. He thought he could get some good food in return, so he dashed to the Zhong family's house and started bargaining with Zhong Wanwan:
"Master Zhong, I have some news that you'll definitely be interested in, but I need 5 pieces, no, 6 pieces of candy!"
After eating too much candy, he didn't really want to eat chicken legs or big cookies; he just wanted to eat a couple of bites of sweet candy.
It wasn't like she wanted a lot, so Zhong Wanwan didn't want to argue with the child. She took out six candies from her pocket and handed them to him.
"Okay, here you go, but you can't give me false information, or I won't cooperate with you anymore!"
Sugar Cube happily stuffed the candy into his pocket, thinking that Master Zhong was very generous and that cooperating with her was the right decision. He raised his little head high:
“We’re not some kid who lies. I’m telling you, Tang Zhiqing fell down, and then my sister fell on top of him, breaking his leg!”
Zhong Wanwan couldn't believe it:
"Really? Is Tang Zhiqing that fragile? Even your sister, who's so small, broke his leg?"
The candy cube definitely nodded:
"Of course it's true. Old Wu went there and said that Tang Zhiqing broke his leg. He told me to go find Director Wei, so I brought you this message!"
This is truly wonderful news! Zhong Wanwan quickly said:
"Where is it? Can you take me there?"
The candy cube, clutching its sweets, had no desire to join the fun. Watching was nothing compared to eating candy. As it ran away, it said:
"Go to the farm well yourself. I don't want to play with a little girl!"
Zhong Wanwan...you little brat, when you asked me for candy just now, why didn't you look down on me for being a girl?
Zhong Wanwan thought for a moment and quickly went to find Xia Ning, as she couldn't be left out of this matter.
Upon hearing this, Xia Ning grabbed Zhong Wanwan and ran off.
Because the search for Xia Ning had taken up time, by the time Zhong Wanwan arrived, Director Wei had already left with his men.
Of course, not only young men were present, but also elderly women who came to watch the spectacle.
Seeing Zhong Wanwan and Xia Ning arrive, Aunt Zhang quickly greeted them:
"Master Zhong, Xia Zhiqing, you two have come to see what's going on?"
Zhong Wanwan reached into her pocket, pulled out some sunflower seeds from her spatial storage, and gave a handful each to Aunt Zhang and Xia Ning. As she cracked the seeds, she said:
"That's right! I heard that Tang Zhiqing broke his leg. It was so high! Ugh, I felt so sorry for him, so I came to see him!"
Aunt Zhang bumped into Zhong Wanwan, looking like she knew exactly what was going on:
"Who says otherwise? I felt sorry for Tang Zhiqing just watching. The ground was slippery, and those young men carrying him just made him fall again. Tang Zhiqing's screams were more pitiful than a pig during the Lunar New Year!"
Erlaizi's mother also came over, and Zhong Wanwan shared a handful of melon seeds with her. While cracking the seeds, Erlaizi's mother loudly proclaimed:
"Now Tang Zhiqing doesn't have to carry manure anymore. Spring planting is just around the corner. Do you think Tang Zhiqing did it on purpose?"
Erlaizi's mother still remembers Tang Zixuan and Bai Yueyao. How could she have said anything about her son? She'll have a chance to get revenge now!
Tang Zixuan was so angry that his face turned green. Who would break their leg just to do less work? That could make them lame!
Tang Zixuan endured the pain and explained:
"I was hit by the bean sprout. If she hadn't been on top of me, my leg wouldn't have broken!"
Erlaizi's mother clicked her tongue in disapproval:
"Oh dear, you got pounced on by bean sprouts again? When did you two get together? Tang Zhiqing, you're such a flirt!"
Tang Zixuan was speechless. What could possibly be between him and Douya? Even if there were, he would never be with Douya!
Tang Zixuan looked up and saw Xia Ning standing next to Er Laizi's mother. He anxiously tried to explain:
"Xia Ning, don't listen to her nonsense. I have nothing to do with Douya. It's just that the ground was too slippery, and Douya was trying to help me up. We accidentally fell together."
Xia Ning scoffed:
