Director Wei felt that no amount of explanation could compare to the shock of seeing the results.
He pointed at Zhong Songbai, who understood immediately and ran over to start the tractor. Then he slowly drove the tractor next to Director Wei.
Farm manager Wei patted the front of the tractor and said:
"Look, the paint on the front of the tractor is still there. Master Zhong repaired it in just 3 days!"
"But there's no use saying anything more. Captain Hu definitely doesn't trust Master Zhong. We'd better hurry up and get in line at the county's auto repair shop!"
"If we go now, we don't know if we can even get a spot within a week. So there's no rush to harvest in Dagouzi Village!"
When Captain Hu saw the large area of paint that had been smashed and scratched, his eyes widened like saucers.
My goodness! It was so serious, but it was fixed in just 3 days. This Master Zhong is truly amazing; you can't judge a book by its cover!
How could he afford to offend such a skilled technician? He immediately looked at Director Wei with obsequiousness and said:
"Director Wei, look at you, why are you in such a hurry!"
"Who says we can't trust Master Zhong? Our village's broken tractor is still waiting for Master Zhong!"
"Why hasn't Master Zhong arrived yet? I'll go and greet him right now. Is his toolbox heavy? I need to help him carry it!"
Just then, the four people who had come to get their toolboxes arrived. Captain Hu eagerly stepped forward to help Wei Maisui, Zheng Nannan, and Xiaobaiyang carry their toolboxes.
Are Wei Maisui and Zheng Nannan capable? What were they there to do? They were just there to fetch the toolboxes!
They were really trying to steal his work; the two of them were determined to defend their toolbox to the death and refused to let the old man take it.
Little White Poplar was still young, and he was determined to defend it to the death, but the enemy was too strong. He couldn't win, and before he knew it, the old man had gotten his hands on it.
The old man, holding Xiaobaiyang's toolbox, said ingratiatingly to Zhong Wanwan:
"Master Zhong, shall we go now? The oxcart is right behind us. We're sorry to trouble you, Master Zhong!"
"Once the tractor is repaired, I'll definitely drive it back to Master Zhong and the others!"
Zhong Wanwan politely declined:
"We'll come back on our own once the tractor is fixed. We don't need the tractor or the ox; we can't delay your village's harvest!"
This touched the old man deeply. He never knew the county technicians were so considerate of them. No matter what time it was or how busy they were, they always made sure to pick them up and drop them off by car!
The old man decided to prepare plenty of "specialty products" for Zhong Wanwan; he had originally planned to give her just 20 eggs.
They arrived so quickly, without delaying the harvest. Otherwise, I would have gritted my teeth and given away my big rooster.
He still felt a little heartache, but in order to be just as generous next time he needed help, the old man steeled himself, winked at Zhong Wanwan, and said:
"Since Master Zhong has been so helpful, I, Old Hu, am not ignorant of the proper etiquette. I've prepared a generous amount of local specialties for Master Zhong!"
Although Zhong Wanwan didn't know what the technician was supposed to deliver when he went to fix something.
But after Captain Hu said that, she still had some guesses!
Zhong Wanwan didn't say no, or offer any explanation.
When she says no at this point, it's like a doctor refusing a red envelope from a patient's family when entering the operating room—it always makes people uneasy.
She could talk about other things after she fixed it, Zhong Wanwan smiled and nodded, without saying anything more.
Seeing that Zhong Wanwan had agreed, the old man felt reassured and urged the oxcart to hurry on its way.
When Zhong Wanwan arrived at the edge of the rice paddies in Dagouzi Village, she saw the tractor that needed repairing.
She first inquired about the tractor driver's actions after the tractor got stuck, and then she checked the tractor herself and got a clearer picture of what was going on.
