Although those inexplicable people were driven away, Xiang Baiwei still felt a little uneasy.

During the lunch break, an old lady standing next to her looked at her several times, and finally couldn't help but come over to ask: "Weiwei, did your grain workshop offend anyone when selling things outside? This business must be honest, you can't cheat people!"

Xiang Baiwei didn't understand how this got to the grain workshop, so she explained in a serious tone, "This matter has nothing to do with the grain workshop. Who knows who the group of people who just came are?"

"Whether you recognize me or not, you should know it in your heart. I am just reminding you kindly."

For some unknown reason, the old lady muttered a few words and then walked away with her companions.

Although she was walking far away, the old lady kept looking back from time to time, pointing at Bai Wei, and then turned her head and said something to her companion.

Xiang Baiwei saw all this and felt very angry.

But this situation is the most difficult to deal with.

She couldn't just run to the brigade and shout on a loud speaker that she had nothing to do with the men who blocked the road today. There was no solution to this problem.

Xiang Baiwei, who was in a bad mood, returned home and sat at the table, not wanting to eat.

She was still wondering about the identities of those people who blocked her way today.

Jiang Sui, who had just hurriedly gone to school to deal with something, had just entered the house when he saw Xiang Baiwei, who was in a hurry and was about to go out.

He was worried that his wife might get into trouble again, so he quickly chased after her: "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to go back to my parents' home and look for my two brothers. I'm going to ask them to help me find out who those people who came to see me today are. My two brothers have a lot of friends in this area, so they should know."

"Then I'll go with you."

The eldest and second sons of the Xiang family naturally agreed to this matter very readily.

When the two brothers were riding their bikes out, they were seen by Xu Xiuxiu.

As if she had discovered something important, Xu Xiuxiu ran to gossip with Liu Mei: "Guess what I saw at the Xiang family's door just now?"

"Two-thirds of the people in this village are surnamed Xiang," Liu Mei looked at Xu Xiuxiu speechlessly, "How do I know which Xiang family you are talking about?"

"I'm talking about Xiang Baiwei," Xu Xiuxiu glanced around, "I just saw her go back to her parents' home. Not long after she returned, her two brothers went out."

Liu Mei's eyes moved slightly, and she replied calmly, "Just go out, there's nothing strange about that."

"I stood there and watched for a while. His two brothers went out to borrow bicycles and then went to town." Xu Xiuxiu played with the ends of her hair. "I heard that they were going to find out who the men who blocked the road today were."

"Then what?"

"I just find it strange. Why did Xiang Baiwei do this? Did she feel that the truth was about to be exposed and wanted to put on a show to avoid disrupting her small workshop's business?"

Xu Xiuxiu couldn't figure it out and made a very stupid guess.

Liu Mei looked down at her, hiding the disgust in her eyes: "Maybe she felt ashamed and ran to find the police."

"Is she really wronged in today's incident?" Xu Xiuxiu was a little unwilling. She actually hoped that Xiang Baiwei had really offended someone.

"Whether she was wronged or not, it has nothing to do with us." Liu Mei put the books in order, "Let's pack up, school will start in two days."

"Oh, okay."

After Xiang Baiwei's incident, those people in the village who had nothing to do but get together and brag finally changed the topic.

Instead, they began to wonder whether Xiang Baiwei's grain workshop was legitimate or not, and who she had offended outside.

The person in trouble changed from Liu Mei to Xiang Baiwei.

At the same time, Liu Mei learned a new piece of news from her colleagues.

She stopped Zhang Wangming, who had just finished her class, in the corner of the dirt playground and looked at her anxiously: "I heard that your family arranged another job for you. Are you going to leave here soon?"

She is well-informed.

Zhang Wangming commented in his mind, then nodded: "Yes, my family wrote to me some time ago, saying that my parents missed me and were worried about me being away all the time, so they found a way to arrange a job for me so that I could go back and stay with them."

"That's great." Liu Mei's envy was evident in her words, "I don't want to teach here anymore."

"Just hold on for a while longer. I heard that many students in the village are preparing for the college entrance examination. You can study with them and pass the exam. Then you won't have to stay in this dilapidated place anymore." Zhang Wangming pretended not to understand Liu Mei's hint and gave her advice in a very serious manner.

What Liu Mei wants is not ideas.

What she wants is an admirer who is devoted to her and willing to find a way to take her away with him.

If it were the Zhang Wangming of the past, he might have been seduced by beauty, and would have been willing to let Liu Mei do what she wanted if she said a few nice words to him.

But now it’s different. Zhang Wangming doesn’t want a woman who is entangled with a country scoundrel, who is fickle and has her eyes on a married man.

What's more, a letter from home stated that they had arranged a marriage for him while he was looking for a job.

He has already submitted his resignation and is ready to go home.

He can start working in a month and then start preparing for the wedding. Everything is very rushed and he has no more energy to deal with Liu Mei.

Liu Mei keenly noticed Zhang Wangming's distant attitude towards her.

She thought about it and decided to retreat in order to advance.

"You have a good job now, unlike me, whose future is still uncertain. I may not even be worthy of talking to you."

"What are you talking about? Although we can't be colleagues in the future, we are still friends. I will write to you when I settle down. You can come to me when you are free and I will treat you dinner." Zhang Wangming changed his attitude to that of an ordinary colleague.

In front of him now, Liu Mei is really no different from an ordinary colleague.

After saying that, Zhang Wangming turned around and was about to leave. Unwillingly, Liu Mei looked at his back and said slowly, "What did I do wrong? I feel like you are deliberately distancing yourself from me now."

Zhang Wangming's heart tightened.

Oh no, my attitude was too obvious and Liu Mei noticed it.

The difficulty lies in the fact that Zhang Wangming had done some things in the past that affected his reputation, and Liu Mei knew all about them.

Under such circumstances, he naturally couldn't make Liu Mei angry.

Zhang Wangming quickly considered in his mind, adjusted his facial expression, and turned around: "What else? Stay here and watch you being infatuated with Jiang Sui? Liu Mei, I have a heart of flesh and blood, and no man is willing to see the one he loves infatuated with someone else."
